I'm not too picky on my ROMs, I just really need my Facebook sync back.
I tried the replace contacts.apk method and failed miserably. I'd much rather just flash a ROM that has it already fixed.
Thanks Care,

Gotcha.
Is there a ROM that puts back what Google removed then?

You can use the haxsync app to sync contacts. It works really well for me!

Bought it
It said it sync'd. I went into my phone contacts, nothing. I went into accounts to make sure it was enabled and it was and it said it had sync'd.
Rebooted, still nothing.

Go to contact, menu, contacts to display, select haxsync open and check all contacts. If your on JB there's also a second part to the haxsync app called haxsync jb workaround app. Download that also

This happens to me on 4G as well. There are times I send e-mails from it and people never receive them and there are times I never get them. Then sometimes it works perfect. I switched to a 3rd party e-mail app. It never fails me. I am using Kaiten but its a paid app. Try K9 on the Market. You can make it black themed and it works well for many.

I had this prob few days back, I turned syncing off, then back on. I then reboot the phone and bam! It started working again.
P.S. Under Applications>All. I also cleared data/cache.

Settings->Accounts and Sync. On apps, select All, and choose Gmail, clear cache and data on that one.

I have lost some faith in G-Mail. I don't understand why I can get a 3rd party app like K9, add my G-Mail account to that, and people receive the e-mails faster than using G-Mail itself. If someone can explain why this is, I would appreciate it.

I think it depends on many factors, we all have different apps, different roms, kernels, and also different qualiies of reception.

Can you be a bit more clear? I'm understanding bits and pieces... what I explained over clearing the cache was your answer to your question previous to your last post.

Hey all,
What I'm looking for sounds simple to me, but seems to be a challenge.
I want to sync facebook, now you will say haxsync or friend caster, but they don't sync phone numbers. I'm looking for a way to make the stock Facebook app sync with the phone
Thanks
Only way is to use a rom that allows you to flash a facebook sync mod like this where it enables it on the rom or has it already built in.
Its taken out of the stock rom thats why everyone recommends HaxSync, I'm sure you already know this but adding a Facebook account on the stock rom doesn't do anything.

I've been using haxsync for awhile, but only just realized it doesn't sync numbers. Checking out the link you posted

Try Contapps in the market... it syncs with Facebook and if there are those that don't sync (different spelling, etc.) then you can manually link them to whatever contacts to facebook friends...
i was looking for this as well and i came across this thread for ICS FB sync. it worked for me! (but u should backup first, just in case)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631796
That ROM is for ICS..will the mod work for stock JB?

So my dad has the EVO 4g I'm pretty good with tech stuff but this I just can't figure out, his phone was acting werid so I did the first trouble shooting you do with anything power off power on however when we powered it on all the contacts were gone, when you look at view theres 900 contacts but with no phone number any ideas

Does he have a google account setup?? Because if he did is only a matter of signing to your Gmail and they all should be stored there.
Yes he does I thought the same thing I was like its fin Google backs it up but nope not there either
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
This may sound funny but could it be possible that he has more than one and you're not using the right Gmail account? Well in any case you can go into that Gmail account that he used from a computer and check if those contacts are there; now if the're not then I think is fair to say they're gone almost for sure... Now if they are there then we can figure out a way to get those back in there.

Is he on a stock rom or have you installed something non-stock for him? Also, as stated above, log in to contacts.google.com and see whats there. If they are there then go into accounts/sync, disable google contacts sync then reboot, connect to good wifi connection, and re-enable contacts sync.
If they aren't showing up in contacts.google.com theeeeeen I might try another reboot. Or maybe fix permissions if you are rooted and your recovery supports it.

Hi there, Facebook syncing is a feature that I miss from a custom ICS rom I used to have. I read somewhere that there might be JB Roms that support this feature but I haven't been able to find one, so before I give up I want ask you directly.
Now before you answer make sure to read this, what I am truly looking for are the numbers and not anything else, so please don't redirect me to HaxSync or FriendCaster because I don't care about high-res pictures or calendar events. If there is a third party app that can sync numbers i'll happily take it. If there really is no way to workaround this issue then, oh well. Thanks for your time guys.
Maybe Haxsync will work

There is a workaround to just copy & replace ur contactproviders.apk
I have used it on a jb rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35867380
It enables u to sync contacts with pics. No calendar though
Make sure to backup orig file. Replace. Set permissions. Reboot. Clear fb, contacts cache. Reboot. U do have to manually join.
But for now m happy w/o getting any extra app can sync

It didn't work for me on the Galaxy S3. The next download worked. But any changes I make on the phone won't get synced back up. See http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=42641 If enough people star it, Google will look into it.
