Mine all synced up yesterday before I got into my car after leaving the T-Mobile store! Stupid question but are you sure the sync settings on your phone are all set up? I had them not work in the past on my HD2 but then later they would...

it wont sync contacts or messages itll sync the calender..everything else is syncing properly even the actual facebook app just not the social hub app.

Same here! No go for FB for Social Hub Contacts or Messages, Cal is OK though..
Regular FB syncs Contacts fine though.... what gives?

I finally got my pics to all sync up but there is allot of my fb friends that dont even show up in my contact list. Would appreciate any help.

i've got Facebook syncing my contact list just fine, as well as messages
and got 2 separate FB apps running

[Q] Slow performance image gallery

Anyone has any issues with the image gallery's performance? every time i open the gallery, it takes a while, say a minute, before the albums show up. Sometimes they don't show up at all.
I have synced FB albums and Picasa albums. I'm not sure if that's what's causing the slow performance though.i'll be unsyncing those albums soon so hopefully that fixes the problem.

Getting this too on my stock (International) Note 2.
Very annoying.

im thinking its the synced stuff. its getting annoying. still trying to find out why. but i do think its cause of sync

yes it is caused by the synced stuff. I removed fb albums by removing fb account and adding it back in without syncing the pic gallery. it was fixed after that.
it's nice to have them synced albums. so hopefully this will be fixed in the future.

Well, I've fixed the problem on easier way, instead of remove the Facebook account just enter on the sync settings, and deselect the sync gallery option, enter the gallery, the first time is going to be slow, but next time is going to load faster.

Something to try is "quickpic" from the market. Fast, functional, free. None of the syncing crap though.
I never looked back after using it.

Make sure you don't have any images being synced through Dropbox that the Gallery is looking for. Can really slow the things down. Rather than sync your phone through Dropbox better to perform manual syncs using DropSync.
If eliminating your Dropbox sync doesn't solve the problem go through your images and make sure nothing is corrupted.

Remove the account then uninstall the app while clearing the data. Install it back and set it up without the galery sync or let it sync once then remove.

Had the same issue and turning off dropbox sync fixed it...My facebook photos appear to be syncing without issue.

I fixed it by just removing the sync in my Google account. It was syncing ALL my photos. Google back up, drive and Picassa. I also unchecked Uploading.:cyclops:

Yeah this was talked about in a few different threads when the update was first released that is rhe only fix that I know of. Unsyncing Picasa and dropbox all of them

So I've had some luck with removing Facebook and Picasa sync, but only inside the Gallery app itself. My issue is when using a 3rd party app to upload a photo already taken (Messaging, Facebook, Untappd) and the Gallery could take 10 minutes to load so I am almost always forced to take a new photo instead of uploading the one that I wanted to upload. Anyone figure out what is actually causing this issue?

Turn on sync and go to settings and account Google account click email and un check everything todo with a pic. Than do the same in the Facebook app.

My MicroSD was needing maintenance
In my case, the gallery slow performance was announcing that something was wrong with my micro SD card, I just formatted it using HP USB Disk Storage Tool disabling quick format and it resolved the issue, I copied back all my files and now the cell phone is working perfectly.
I hope it helps.

The KitKat upgrade was maybe the only TRUE improvement on my S4... With JB, the gallery was a PITA, even with syncing disabled !

Sync FB contact in JB

I have this question, in ICS when i install the facebook app, its ask me to sync my contacts in with facebook (the existing, i mean the contacts in my phone to update with fb photo, info, etc) but in jellybean i cant, i see the account there, i turned on the sync option, but it doesnt do anything.
Someone know what to do?

The functionality has been deliberately disabled by Facebook. There was something of a controversy about it back when it happened. So, yeah. Not happening anymore.

So,do you know any good app that do that work very good? like ICS without any problem

Contact sync for facebook in the play store. Try that out.

I use Friendcaster and it syncs the contacts pretty well. I started using it when Facebook upgraded to 2.0 and kept having network errors. The contact sync was just a plus.

[q] connecting accounts in cm10/cm10.1

what i like in TW contacts apk is that i could link the contacts from gmail/yahoo/facebook and other to one single contact.
how can we do this in the cm10/10.1 contacts apk? or we should use other contacts/massaging app?

i want that to, i ask but nobody say anything, in ICS i can sync fb contact with my phone contac. and update photo, number, etc. in cm10, cm10.1 i cant, i add fb account but don sync anything

You should be able to press and hold on a contact and link/join them

it doesnt sync any contact from fb, thats the problem, in ics detect the contacts and join them without any problem

I googled this some time ago too.
If I remember rightly, this is caused by the fb-app which does not support syncing in JB.
But you could take a look at the LiquidSmooth rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057288

Facebook was working like crap on my phone, so I went back to Friendcaster and it syncs just fine with my contacts on CM10.1.

Facebook events not syncing with calendar.

My Facebook events speed syncing with the stock calendar and I cannot figure out how to get it back. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and checked all the settings is anyone else having this issue? What am I missing?

If you haven't already try going to settings and under accounts and sync make sure Facebook is checked along with calendar with Facebook.

When I go to the sync option in the Facebook account settings it only had an option for contacts and says last synced date and time.

Then you can't sync calendar if its not an option. Has it ever worked before?

It did, it was great. Everything showed up on the widget too.

Maybe its an app issue with a recent update. Maybe the devs for the app can help you. [email protected]

Are you on a tablet ROM? For whatever reason, when I ran a multi dpi ROM in tablet mode, the FB didn't sync my calendar. There was no option for it. I didn't run the ROM all that long, never found a solution.
