2.2 and facebook sync

Hi,
I have tried about 6 different 2.2 ROMS by different people and in everyone when i try the fbook sync it stops on 293 contacts. This means most of the important people do not have any fbook info linked to their name on the phone, no email address or photo etc
is this a bug in all the base 2.2s or something else i can fix myself?
Thanks

apparently leedroid's rom says it's got Facebook HTC sync fixed... give it a go i guess...
I tried 1.5b and it wasnt working in that one.
I guess it is an issue in the under lying 2.2 for them all to be broken is it?

Google Facebook Photo Sync

This is a little off-topic, and I'm sorry if it doesn't belong here, but I am looking for some people to test out a new website I've been working on, and thought I'd look to my fellow Inc2 owners.
When I first got CM7 working on my old Fascinate, I was a little bummed that there was no way to link my Facebook contacts. So I decided to make my own tool. As of right now, it only syncs pictures, no phone numbers or anything.
I've spent a good amount of time working out the bugs, but there is a chance I missed some, so if you encounter any problems please let me know. Don't worry though, it won't mess up your Google contacts at all.
Please note that it currently DOES NOT work in Internet Explorer, due to a bug on Google's end which will hopefully be fixed soon.
http://www.pfrybarger.com/googlefbsync/googlefbsync.html
Thanks!
Edit: Also I should note that this won't work on mobile browsers (can't scroll through certain lists), and you must have javascript enabled in your browser.
What are the benefits over using the Facebook App to sync contacts?
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App
Let's see, the main benefits are:
- Ability to crop and resize profile pictures
- Pictures are visible outside of just your phone, so in Gmail for instance
- No need to re-link after flashing a new rom (I always found this a pain)
- Pictures will show up everywhere on your phone. I believe if you use the Facebook app to sync, the pictures will not show up for certain apps, like messaging
- No new contacts will be added to your phone
My tool will only sync pictures, and not phone numbers or email addresses. I found it kind of annoying that the Facebook app would pull these in, but I guess that's a matter of personal preference.
As of right now, there is no automatic updating of profile pictures, but I hope to get this implemented soon.

Gave it a go. after running the program, I got an error pop up that submitted an error report. The program still worked though. It found a few of my contacts in Google that weren't matched up with my Facebook contacts.
So if I'm understanding this, now that I have my Facebook contacts linked with my Google contacts, when loading my contacts on my phone now, (after flashing a rom or doing a hard reset) my Google contacts will still have the pictures linked to them without having to go back and doing the Facebook thing all over again?

Yep, as long as you hit the upload button once you were done linking the contacts. Instead of saving the pictures on the phone, like the Facebook app does, this actually saves the pictures to your Google contacts. So when you do a reset, and sign back in to your Google account, your contact picture will be sent to your phone along with all their other information.
You do need to link all of your contacts on the website though. It doesn't recognize which ones you already have linked on your phone.
I saw the bug reports, I'll take a look and try to see what happened. Thanks for giving it a try!
Could you add the feature of ONLY syncing facebook pictures and no contact numbers? The one thing I hate about syncing facebook in my phone is the fact some people have old numbers still on FB so there are two numbers when you go to call or text someone as well as there are unwanted numbers of people.

Your contacts aren't showing up? That's strange... and no error message comes up? When you sign in and click 'Begin', how many contacts does it say you have under 'Google Contacts'?
got this error:

Could you do me a favor? Sign into the site again, and click on 'Begin'. Once the main page loads, click on the 'Comments/Questions' link at the bottom of the page, check the 'send log' checkbox, type anything in the big box, and hit send?
This will help me diagnose what's going on, and why your contacts aren't showing up. Thanks!
Zed does your website still work? The pages shows it as down.
Shoot, my server must be down. I'll take a look at it when I get some time today, sorry about that.
Alright it should be up and running now. Let me know if you have any problems. Thanks!

Add Facebook Account

Trying to add a Facebook account to sync my info with my contacts. Why I go to add the account, the screen just blinks and takes me back to the accounts screen. It wont let me add it. I did it once when the Facebook app asked me if I wanted to, but cannot figure out how to get that option again on the facebook app.
I just rooted my phone and did not apply a custom rom or anything.
You can't add a Facebook account through accounts and sync.. it isn't built in unless you install a rom that has it enabled.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Google has removed facebook sync so the only way to get it back is through a custom rom now.
Actually you don't have to change the ROM. Instead you can just use this app to sync your facebook contacts. Found it a couple of days ago and have been using it without any problems. Works like a charms for me. The only downside: You don't get the facebook icon but instead the icon of the app.

He is trying to do that yes. But as he is not going to succeed I was showing him an alternative to installing another ROM. I think that is legitimate.

I agree, I've been using HaxSync for a while now and love it. It does have a few little quirks with name matching, but it's easy enough to remedy by linking the contact to the correct account in Facebook, plus the dev seems to work pretty quickly on updates and bug fixes.
Here's a question which I think is on point with the thread.
I have a custom ROM on my GNEX which has Facebook Sync enabled (Winner00 ROM). But it doesn't seem to sync everyone, and certainly not with high resolution images. I also installed the Facebook sync app that so many have suggested, but that also doesn't sync everyone, nor does it sync high res images.
In total, only about 20 or so of my phone contacts are synced with their FB pictures.
Anyone know how to better tweak this? Or, what I'm doing wrong??
Thanks!

I've not used a ROM that has Facebook syncing enabled, but I'm guessing it's the same situation as with HaxSync. My guess is that the name of the contact in your phone is different somehow than their name on Facebook so this is how you join them so the pics sync:
1. Open the People app and find the contact you want to join
2. Opent the contact then tap Menu>Edit
3. Then tap Menu>Join
4. Match the person to their Facebook name and select it
5. Tap done
The contact will now be joined to their facebook picture and the picture will sync.
As I said, I'm not positive that this is the same with Facebook syncing as all I have used is HaxSync but I'm guessing it's the same.
Thanks for the suggestion.

[Q] People app missing all facebook contacts

Hello, how are you?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM stock (yakuj) with Android 4.0.4 and Facebook app 1.9.0.
I added my facebook account and have the facebook app installed. I also checked for syncing contacts under Settings-> account & sync.
However, none of my facebook contacts show up at People app.
I tried deleting the account and re-adding it but I still have nothing.
I also tried to re-install facebook app, and still nothing.
Besides, I also tried to show only the facebook contacts changing the settings at People app->contacts to display->customize, but It didn't work either.
Furthermore, I tried to follow the steps on the link bellow, and It didn't work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928393
Please, Does someone have any clue of what can be happening?
I can't figure out why my facebook contacts don't shows at People app.
I appreciate any help you can give me,
Roger
because facebook sync is broken in stock android.

Native Facebook contact syncing has been left out of Android since Gingerbread 2.3.4!
Roman from AOKP made a "fix" to get Facebook contacts to sync but ...
"Unfortunately, the "fix" breaks Picasa upload functionality and exposes all of your contact data insecurely. Facebook and Twitter need to update their applications to use the correct API introduced in IceCream Sandwich." - Peter Alfonso
This is why some dev's like Pete and Team Douche (Cyanogenmod) have not incorporated this "fix".
If you want your Facebook Contacts synced I would suggest buying HaxSync from the Play Store! That's what I did ... Cheers
Here is your solution: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync&hl=en
It's not free, but it's well worth it. Works flawlessly and is under constant development.

Hello,
thanks a lot for helping.
Is HaxSync app the only workaround for this issue?
BTW, Is this an issue with Android 4.0.4, or Is this an issue of facebook app?
I mean, In order to fix this issue, Is the facebook app the one needed to be fixed(updated to use ICS API)?or Will we have to wait for a fix in the next ICS OTA?

I wouldn't think Facebook will correct this issue if for nothing else other than spite. Your best option is i believe HaxSync its only 99 cents (less than you pay for a coffee) and it securely syncs your contacts, calender events including birthdays and downloads hi-res images of your contacts too. It adds more functionality than the old native sync.

Again, this is a facebook issue. Your easiest solution is to pony up 99 cents as I originally recommended, it'll give you everything you want and then some, I assure you.
Yes the other solution works, but it comes with other issues and requires a bit more effort. You can decide what's more worthwhile to you - spend the time and effort for a broken solution or spend 99 cents to get everything you need easily.

Actually..the API is there since 4.0.3. Facebook just doesn't care enough to implement it.

no problem i do what i can
yes basically its the facebook app because its not doing it right ... there was some sort of back story there about fb not wanting to work with google on the issue because fb wanted to take all of the google (gmail) contacts information or something like that.
I think the facebook sync solution you have found there is how Roman from AOKP came up with the "fix" or workaround. That information is more for developers than end users like yourself and obviously is not an easy solution. Again this is not secure syncing either which is why a few respected developers refuse to implement it.
imo HaxSync is the way to go ... fb contacts, hi res images with time line and calendar sync so it offers more than the "fix"

I don't understand what you need. You want Viber/whatsapp to sync with Facebook contacts? If this is the case check under sync to make sure you have allowed FB contact sync. I think there is also an option somewhere in the FB app itself but I could be wrong.

Viber
Hi,
This is a member of the Viber R&D Team!
This option is not available through Viber, if your device contact list is synced with your FB account it will sync also to Viber.
If you have any question about Viber - please feel free to ask.
Thank you,

Hello,great to see that you are also on this forum and taking care of Viber users However,I still have a problem with this.I used to have gingerbread and there it worked perfectly but now I can't make it work.Everything is synced but Viber reads just my gmail contacts.
i read that a while ago, that facebook were closing access to their contact list, as in other apps couldn't read it, or something along those lines, or maybe it was that it couldn't be edited or something but it was a silly idea and nobody liked it lol.

better explained there, you can't export them, they're stored in the cloud rather than on your device itself etc, i think this is the reason you can't use them in other apps.

yeah some apps can read the facebook contacts, ie htc sense - but the difference is that facebook doesn't use the android contacts api, so other apps that would normally read the contacts via the android api, can't actually see the facebook contacts, because technically they aren't part of the 'android contacts' (even though you as the user see them within the contacts/people app)

@strukef -
For more questions/doubts about Viber, please feel free to let us know.
Also, know that a new version of Viber, 2.2, is coming to Market soon, and will contain many improvements (including synchronization with the native contact list of ICS - but again, not the Facebook contacts).

Anybody else think that one of the new features is Viber crashing whenever signal is lost/regained?
I had the same problem with Whatsapp. Facebook Contacts snyced with HTC Facebook are blocked. So 3rd Party apps cant use them. But you can use Facebook Unlocker. The app isnt longer in the market but i will share it via dropbox.

Attention: You need a rooted device!
When you have unlocked your contacts, you will see also the FB pics in Whatsapp etc.

Hi,
Can you please elaborate on the problem?
Have you made sure that the crash is linked to the signal being lost? And are you referring to 3G or WiFi signal?

I haven't been able to confirm it, I'm afraid, it's kind of a feeling, it's usually crashed when I switch the screen on. It happens multiple times a day. I've cleared data and reinstalled it, but no joy.
Does it use C2DM or GCM?

Viber uses C2DM in order to stay available.
Have you tested the brand new 2.2.2 update?
If the problem still persists with 2.2.2, please do let me know, and I'll redirect you to our Support Team.

I installed 2.2.2 and a few minutes later it crashed, but it has been fine since. I think it's fixed.
It's nice to hear that it works fine now
If the problem persists, please don't hesitate to let me know.
