I want all the folders supported in Dolphin, not just 500 bookmarks that aren't in folders.
I am also trying to sync my chrome contacts.
I stumbled upon this and am also having trouble finding a way to do that easily. Or at all as a matter of fact.
you may want to look at "google bookmarks assister2" its a free app that will sync you google bookmarks. Now it doesn't sync them with a browser app it will show the bookmarks in that application and you can launch them from there and it does give folders so it isn't to bad. I had some trouble getting it to sync correctly but after I did it worked pretty nice. Hope this helped good luck.
anyone found anything to do this? if i had all my bookmarks i could seriously use my tablet as a laptop/desktop replacement.
google bookmarks != chrome bookmarks (which are still synced to the cloud... there must be a way of syncing)
It would be really nice to sync the bookmarks from Chrome with the Android browser. Will look in the market..

Have you tried Xmarks? It's not free (you have to pay a $1/m subscription fee to get the Android app to let you login. see: http://buy.xmarks.com/premium.php), but it will automatically sync your bookmarks to Android, as well as between computers and browsers, and it stores them all online.

thats isnt the same thing as what we are talking about. We are talking about syncing 50+ bookmarks at times. with chrome to phone you would have to send each one then bookmark each one. That could take a while
PhoneMarks, great app

I can vouch for this. It synced every app that was in the specified folder rather fast. I definitely needed this.
ChromeMarks (Lite/free - if you're satisfied with 1 way sync => PC to phone)
thank you for the help
I just tried PhoneMarks. I setup it up to sync with the default android browser, then went into dolphin HD\bookmarks to SD to sync from android browser to google bookmarks, then synced google bookmarks to dolphin. long story short, my chrome bookmarks are finally on my phone. thanks for the tip.
I'd love to try chromemarks, but I fear giving that many permissions to an app, that should be a stock feature. :/
I'm sure in time I'll just do it.
questions:
does it sync folders as well?
and does it just show up in the browser bookmarks, or do you have to click the app icon or whatever?
Phonemarks moves the bookmarks to recently visited on Samsung phones. Melt.
If you do however, go into most visited and untap the yellow favs star then click it again it'll add it to favourites.
Can't believe google didn't had that damn feature on last 2.x updates..! PhoneMarks, what would be the danger to use it exactly..?
Do any of the devs on here have any clue as to why there seems to be so many issues with Facebook Sync for HTC Sense ?
I've tried Fresh, DC and RegaW, and I'm still getting sync issues....
As we draw nearer to an official release, I'm hoping that it will be ironed out, but as of right now, Facebook Sync for me is broken.

It is because of memkill settings. The sync doesn't have a chance to get started. If you relax them, FB usually syncs in 5 mins.
This information is in the Damage thread. I know there a lot of posts in each Damage thread, but you're about to get flamed for starting a new thread for this topic.
Hope that helps and ignore the ones who just b!tch at you for this thread.
But I've always changed autokiller to default, and it's the same problem....

I tried everything under the sun, and it didn't work until I set that to default. Within 5 mins. it worked. Did that twice.
Sorry man.
hmmm. maybe i've got something else killing stuff.....aaaaaargh
Have you tried the forced refresh method?
im starting to think the problem is deeper than that if you actually dig deep into the sync setting you will notice that 2.1 has a Facebook Sync and HTC Sense Facebook Sync.
Menu - Setting - Accounts & Sync - Add Account
Exchange ActiveSync
Facebook
Facebook for HTC Sense
Flickr
Google
Twitter
You can make changes to the Facebook for HTC Sense but not for Facebook...
Possibility of the two of them clashing???
causing it to take longer for it to sync

I thought that as well.
I wonder if there's an apk you can remove....
The regular "Facebook" option controls the actual facebook app. If you bring up the facebook app and logout and then select that option it will take you the login screen for the app.

That's Completely understandable but still doesn't mean their can be a conflict from one of the .APKs from facebook
I too have had sync issues with Facebook for HTC Sense where it will only allow me to link my People contacts from Facebook until the letter L for my friends. Im running DC 2.07.2 and can't for the life of me find the autokiller app if there is one running. I've tried searching so if someone could help me tune it down to sync or explain the force refresh method I'd appreciate it.

Or better still, can anyone please explain how to REMOVE the memkill/autokill stuff ?
What can we do to have this left as default stock mem-kill ???
Also, has anyone actually PROVEN that the issue is with the mem kill stuff ? I mean is there a log that shows that the session has been killed halfway through running ??
That's why I initially asked if any devs have managed to look into this ?
I'm not good enough at all this logcat stuff to be able to give an educated response, but all I know if that it's not working properly, and I'd like to understand why....

That's true, they could still be competing. I've had varying results with Sense syncing. I was fine, had all contacts synced, could select to view fb contacts in the fb app, changed my facebook password re-added my account for fb sync in sense, now my linked contacts are pulling the fb info, and i lost the ability to select fb in the view menu.
when i first synced with facebook on 2.1 it only synced to the letter L like most people but if you leave it alone it will eventually pull the rest of the sync info from facebook
I used minfree manager and then removed the FB sync account. I then used the default settings in minfree and set up FB to sync again. My fb calendar was synced for about 12 hours but now its gone again. So it appears changing the mem killer helps but it is not a permanent solution.

Even after waiting and letting all my contacts sync, I still get multiple "View Facebook Profile" under friends that I have higher in the alphabet as opposed to having that option once for one of my friends whose name starts with a 'z'
what i've done every time i load a new 2.1 rom works for me and i've had 0 facebook link problems
i will sign into facebook/gmail/flickr on my first boot up
i go to photos/facebook tab and then i scroll to each person and let their thumbnail load
takes like 30 seconds to a min *i don't have more than like 75 fb friends*
THEN i sync my outlook contacts and it always works flawlessly

The Sprint Leak 2.1 took a long time to fully Sync probably a good 2 hours =/
my mem settings are now stock
echo "1536,3072,4096,5120,5632,6144" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
and I'm still not syncing properly....
Does anyone happen to have it? I want to run it on CM6 so i can get pictures from facebook for my contacts.

Use the official Facebook app, it works better than friend stream. You can do the same with the official Twitter app.
I don't get how to do it with the facebook application. I messed around with it for a bit, but no avail. Any help?

Go to settings and make sure you have sync contacts enabled. The names /emails have to be similar, but you can always go the contact app, edit a contact and then use the join option in the menu to manually connect contacts.
Edit: this works better than Sense because now all apps that use contact syncing will now have that popup menu when you click on a contacts photo.

Sorry man, but Friend Stream is for HTC Sense frameworks, and won't work in CM6. But, if you purchase Launcher Pro Plus, then that launcher has a widget similar to friend stream (puts facebook + twitter stuff in one widget for ya).
Good luck
Also as an fyi- you can go to any OTA rom, download and rip out any apk's you may want to try. All you need is winrar and you can extract the friendstream.apk file from system/app/ yourself

Use Launcherpro (http://www.launcherpro.com/. It has a widget that is the same as Friendstream.
Hello,
Just have a doubt that I would like to see if it happens only to me or is it for all.
I upgraded my Facebook profile last Wednesday with the new feature of Timeline (a new way to see our profile on Facebook).
Since this update on my Facebook page, I don't receive any "update" on my Me Tile on WP7.
I put videos, pictures and so on, bu my Tile still remains with the activity from Tuesday
Anyone noticed this?
Thanks,
Santos
works fine on mine

Snake, do you have Timeline activated on your Facebook profile?
This is a new feature from Facebook
I do, it´s pretty neat
//edit: have you tried re-syncing the account?

Yeah
I don't understand why I stopped receiving actualizations on my profile on my WP7
Should I delete my account and configure it again?

Yes, tried a few times and nothing.
The only thing that I did not try is delete my account of Facebook on WP7 and then put it again on the device
Well you can always try, try to sync it first, if that doesn´t work, remove it from your phone, and from Windows Live afterwards, then readd it again, see if it works, also, check the Windows Phone application permissions within app settings on facebook, maybe something got "switched" or blocked.

Problem solved.

Thanks Snake
Glad you solved it
I noticed that other peoples walls with facebook timeline wont update on my phone, and I tried deleting facebook from my phone and readding it, but their walls still wont update from last week when they got timeline :/ Do I have to remove facebook from windows live or something?
WP´s access to facebook is done using custom developed app, this app is considered third party, thus if user blocks accessing his info for 3rd party apps, he blocks the windows phone. But try completely removing it
For those of you who are experimenting with AOSP ROMs on your HTC phone and want to synchronize contacts and calendar items with your desktop, have a look at this application. You can install the Android version via the market, the desktop install is freely available from the developer's website below.
http://global.mobileaction.com/product/product_AM.jsp
Also have a look at MyPhoneExplorer. It is also free from the market and very similiar software. You can view your phone's screen on your monitor and operate your phone with your mouse and keyboard. It is a proven software.

Interesting. I like the less cluttered look of this desktop version, but what worries me is the non-english support forum. I wonder if using both of these tools, in addition to the HTC sync software, might create some sort of incompatibility.
ETA: I also wonder how these utilities will respond when switching between ROMs or versions. I don't know how they track synchronization sessions. It'd be a disaster if contact items were duplicated or triplicated when updating or experimenting.
I dont know if this goes here but i have been searching around for a answer.. on my inspire I had to reinstall my rom and when i did for some reason i cannot find my phone contacts.. how in world would i get them back I did have titanium but even it says theres nothing there.. i also just two days ago did a fresh backup on titanium.. strange huh.. so far everything has been replaced but my dialer contacts..

Did you have them synced with Google? If you did then just resign into your google account and they will be restore. As for TIBU it doesnt back up contacts by default as they are stored in System Data and restoring any system data, like contacts, sms, emails, wifi settings and things like that can cause huge issues when changing roms.
I had them synced but for some reason i cannot no matter what find them.. and they did not resync on the cell when i set it up again

Check the sync and account settings to make sure it is selected.

once your sync options are double checked as Zel mentioned, sign in to gmail from the gmail app and get your email, this puts it into a forced sync. Should have all your stuff back.
Thanks for sharing, BillTheCat. I was not familiar with this app. I'l check it out. I've been using Google to sync my stuff.
