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.

I just noticed this, because I rarely call contacts through phonebook, so I'm not sure how long it's been going on, but basically, when I click on a name, nothing happens. Long press on a name brings up the menu (Call Mobile, Edit Contact, etc). If I click on "View Contact", it says:
"The application Phonebook (process.android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I'm on rooted R2BA024. Anyone have this problem/know how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I deleted timescape when rooting, could that be the issue?
Also, I synched my contacts with Facebook, is there some way to use the display pictures from there as my contact pictures?

Yup, the phone book is associated with Timescape, so if you've deleted that, then your phone book doesn't work.
It happened to me before too. I had to clue how to reinstall it, so i ended up reflashing the phone lol.

The easiest fix is just to install a different phonebook app from the market (such as aContacts or Phonebook 2.0). The issue lies with viewing contacts directly through the SE phonebook. I deleted Timescape and have been using aContacts with no issues whatsoever.

I tried putting Timescape back on, but that didn't work. So I went to the market and downloaded Phonebook 2.0. It def works a lot better than the stock phonebook.
Thanks for all the help.

I have the facebook app installed on my phone. When i went to upload a photo onto facebook it gave me the option to use the facebook app or facebook for mytouch. i went ahead and tried it through the mytouch option and i signed into my account which seemed to add my facebook account onto my phone as something it automatically syncs. it synced my facebook contacts to my normally contact...a cool feature and all BUT i dont want it...
i deleted the facebook account off my phone but my facebook contacts are still mixed with my normal ones. i cant delete them either, i tried long pressing and also tried going INTO the contact to maybe edit it and it wont let you do a thing.
any advice?
Were the contacts linked with facebook accounts?

You may want to sort you contacts, from the contacts > Menu> View and uncheck facebook. It won't delete them but you won't have to deal with them.
Also try clearing the data in the Facebook for MT app, not sure if it will do it but it should't hurt.

They were these were contacts that i've never had in my phone before then they appeared on my actual contacts. Some did/didn't have contact numbers depending if they had them in their actual facebook and what i'm noticing is they all have the little circle by their name greyed out meaning i can video chat with them. I deleted all my video chat programs and cleared all my data for contacts/facebook/video chat and they wont go away.
These people have never been on my phone before it happened right when i tried out the facebook for mytouch.
*i wouldnt mind this but i play a lot of farmville and "those" games and half the people on my friends list are "neighbors" only*

Sadly i'm not rooted and therefore can't post a screen shot...unless theres another route you can advice me on then definitely. Maybe ill just take a photo of it with my camera if there is no other way lol.
After clearing all my info again and uninstalling any qik updates it shows qik in the corner of all these contacts, none of them are linked, and about half have actual content info.
From the contact list - long press - call mobile, send contact as vcard, add a fave now!
From within the contact - clicked on the menu button - all, link, send contact, save to sim, set speed dial
From within the contact - tried pressing every item i could and i can only "Edit" the number to something else...i cant do much else with it.
thanks for the help =)

Sorry man, I tried everything I could to recreate this on my phone with no go.....
Make sure to check your contacts on the gmail site, make sure they are not listed there.
If that does not work it looks like you will need to do a factory reset. Sorry

I was afraid of that...
I went ahead and rooted my phone, deleted qik completely off my system. That took care of it. Hope this doesnt happen to anyone else =/
Thanks for your advice though, i'm surprised it didnt work. It was extremely "stuck" and quite stubborn.
Yesterday I finally rooted my device and flashed CM7.
One of the few things that I really enjoyed from Sense was the Contact syncing with FB (so their FB profile pictures were in my contact list and appeared when people called), and the dialer allowing me to type names rather than numbers to call contacts.
Are there any 3rd party apps or tricks in CM7 to get some of those features?

Try friendcaster from the market
I got your 10 char right here
Also go to settings/accounts and sync to add which ever fb app your using.

I'll check out the friendcaster. Thanks!
I use the standard FB app, and i've done the Settings>Accounts & Sync options for that but it seems like it didn't really link my contacts with their FB profiles. Thats the main thing i'm looking for.

You can always manually link them from the contacts app. It will suck if you have a lot of contacts.
Open the contact, menu, edit, join and it should find potential matches.
Sucks to do it one by one, anyone know if there is a way to have it run through all and make suggestions like sense does?

If they have the same name it should link itself. I usually have to manually add a few who have changed their Facebook name. Twitter can be added as well as linked in.

Well, the account shows up, under accounts & sync in the phone settings, but I don't think it's actually syncing the contacts. None of them are showing up for me in the people app.

Uhm... personally I don't like these limitations:
IMPORTANT:
* Facebook does not allow to export phone numbers or emails. Only names, pictures and statuses are synced.
* Facebook users have the option to block one or all apps. If they opt for that, they will be EXCLUDED from your friends list.

Guys, I'm having a hard time finding an App that syncs Facebook profile pictures in HD to my phone contacts.
Haven't found a real alternative for HaxSync yet. HaxSync works for syncing the pictures in best quality, but only as long as the phone contac is named like the Facebook contact. PicSync seems to do it the right way by letting you chose a sync by Facebook ID (means it doesn't care about changing names), but it's no HD.
Any REAL alternatives, please?

WTF? We live in the 21st century and even HTCs social hub can sync by Facebook ID and everybody is telling me that HaxSync is the ONLY way for now?
Excuse me?!
HaxSync can and does sync friends manually, even though it's a bit less than user-friendly at the moment. The next update will make it much easier
Try this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInJvLndlZWRuZXQuY29udGFjdHNzeW5jIl0.
It connects by FB id... atleast that wat it claims
I've just tried contact picture sync and it seems working.
It's free and you can sync them manually in HD.
Is this what you are looking for?

Does it also sync all contact pictures by time schedule? HaxSync would be perfect if it would sync by ID and not by the stupid names.. you know how often girls change their ****ty names on Facebook - and boom, HaxSync doesn't recognize the person any longer and the conract picture catches dust. Awesome.

Just something HaxSync-like which keeps neatly in the background and syncs by ID on Jelly Bean. Can't be THAT hard, right?
