did you sign into your gmail account... unless your sync was turned off from before the update you should have a fairly recent copy of your contacts on google. once your sign into gmail from the phone your contacts should auto download. and you should have a phone icon

Go into the Accounts & Sync menu under settings. do another "Add Account", there you should see a second Facebook account icon, click there and login to your facebook account.
If you've already done this, go back to the Account & Sync menu, and click the Facebook for HTC Sense and remove account, re-add it and reboot.
I always have that same issue when setting up a new ROM, and you just have ot play with the settings under Facebook for HTC Sense and sometimes even removing and re-adding helps.

Under the People app, click menu and view. make sure you have your Facebook checked.
You may want to avoid creating MULTIPLE threads for the same issue.
Check your other thread in the general section for an answer.
Sorry bout the other thread thing i want this issue resolved and i did check and facebook is checked
Stock Rom? Ask the Facebook App developer. Uninstall and reinstall. Wipe the phone and reinstall. I am using Stock Rom non-rooted and having no issue. Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
If you're still not having any luck, I'd have to agree with tgruendler, try a wipe and start over. As far as the Stock ROM, did you download and install it after rooting.
If that's the case, try one of the custom ROMS
Can u give me links and tell me how to do this??
I have the same problem as you.
I went back to rooted stock and i can't get it to find my friends. everythign else, including the friend stream syncs up fine.
I have wiped and reinstalled...same problem.
I'm having the same issue. I installed Fresh 1.0.1, and I wasn't able to re-sync, but when I reflashed my backup (which was working before), it still wouldn't connect.
Maybe Facebook is having issues today?

thanks bros but i edited my first post. i got my pw, but my contacts list is empty.
Did you save your contacts to Google or your phone? If phone: start telling people that you lost their numbers.
i always had it synched...anyways, before i did the update i did backup my contacts on titanium backup...if i root my phone now and download the program, would i be able to pull it off?
can i restore my epic back to the eclair firmware when i had my contacts, before updated to froyo? will it work that way?

No, you can't just restore back to Eclaire, you have to use Odin to go back. Read this to learn how to go back.
if you were rooted and have clockwork and nandroid backed up b4 updating then, u can restore data only and then u might get your contacts back, if not then i don't think u can...
Contacts.
BigBeard86,
First make sure your contacts are there in your google account on the internet. If they are not there, you may be hosed! If they are then you will be able to sync them again.
You could have been part of the problem last week when google lost many email accounts. Just a thought.
There is not a problem syncing as I am doing on my EPIC after I went from 2.1 to 2.2. Things are synced fine.
Fyi, if you had contacts in your old phone that got "ported" to your new Epic in the Sprint store or wherever you bought it, those will get deleted when you upgrade. Mine did the same thing. The reason being that they are not synced with your Google account automatically and are simply stored in your phone's memory.
Did you log into your gmail account on a computer to see if they are there?
Apparently my wife decided to unsync her phone from google contacts. I flashed her phone tonight and upped the baseband/pri etc.. so no restoring I am assuming?
Anyway, when I brought her up on Miui, I looked at her contacts and nothing was there.. for some dumb reason she decided to unsync them and now she has nothing.
The question is, I did a nandroid prior, but I updated all the baseband/wimax/pri etc.. Can I view the data.img file somehow to just view/print and then she can type them all in again?
thanks a ton in advance on this stupid one
So resync them. They should still be saved to her Gmail. With MIUI you have to manually add your gmail account by going to menu > settings > personal > accounts and sync and then hit add account.
thats what I am saying, she didnt have them synced, just on her phone which was a different rom prior to miui.
thanks

There was a thread around here, on how to tear into a nanrdoid backup, and access the data.img. Figures that search is down right now, and i 'should try again in 20-30 minutes'. I think the easiest thing for you to do at this point, would be to just restore the nandroid, re-sync to google, then reinstall the rom you want. Then the contacts should be synced to gmail contacts, and you should be good to go to re sync them to the phone.

^Implies they were synced at some point. If they were then they should still be in her Gmail.

They have a restore feature that goes back 30 days but she must have deleted the stuff beyond that.. I am doing a nandroid and updating the myn rom to latest build (due to wimax/bb/pri)
Once I get them backed up and synced... then i will just restore to miui
will post update

After you restore your nandroid, export your contacts to SD to have a backup copy of them just in case something like this happens again. That way you can just import them and call it a day.
or the wife could just stop playing in settings
ok, got the contacts exported.. she has 50+ saved on phone only.. is there an easy way to convert them to google under her account?
thanks
issue resolved.. exported the phone contacts to a vcf file, then inported into her account. I am restoring miui now... I am sure the sync will just push to the phone once its done restoring.
thanks guys

I think you can upload the exported file as a .CSV to gmail. And then sync the phone with Gmail and they should all be there saved as google contacts.
edit: glad you got it figured out.

Hi Dorric,
do you have the one x sync with google?
if so all contacts are sync with gmail account, and when you install new rom, when you resync with gmail the contacts will be restore
Go to people, menu, manage contacts and then export to phone storage.

As said, just make sure to tick sync contacts and run a sync. To be sure check og gmail, under contacts and all your contacts should be there. If this is not an option, check MyBackup on Play Market. Its a free version, but it only allows to restore to the same phone. But that wouldn't be a problem, or buy the full pro version where you can restore to any phone. I think its also posible to backup apps if you have root.
Guys i rooted the phone and changed to omega rom and now i am on HD revolution 5.0 but on both the roms i have the problem where gmail doesnt now sync on its on. i went to accounts and checked the settings i also checked the settings in the gmail but it just wont sync even if the auto sync is enabled. Any takes on this?
thankyou

You can try delete account, uninstall gmail, clean application files by SD Maid (you need PRO version for this), reboot and reinstall gmail again. Or, do a full clean/wipe install ROM. I’ve used both ROMs and never had problem with gmail.
I uninstalled and installed gmail back. I deleted the data files from the application manager. I forgot to mention that in my last post but its still the same i just dont get the problem. All settings are correct but still it does not sync. Theres another app that has the same problem. Whatsapp syncs well but gmail just wont sync
