Facebook synch to contacts problem? - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
Recently I have been experiancing some problems with the synching of contacts through Facebook to my Evo, specifically the picture aspect of it. Out of about 100 or so contacts on my phone, only about 10 actually have their up to date facebook picture as the contact icon. Everyone that I want with the picture is linked to facebook, yet their picture still doesnt show. I can see their status's and even their photo albums, but still no contact picture. Anyone know the answer?

Photo contacts (not misleadinginformation on WM2005)

I have to change the story since I discovered after getting a few mails, that the photo contacts application is gone, but it is no longer needed, since all information is now stored in the contacts. It is a lot better than before, because you only need 1 application.
I am using my Qtek2020 for almost 2 years now and one of the features I really liked was Photo Contacts. However, it doesn't work all the time, whatever I am trying to do. When I saw the first screen shots of WM2005 it showed a contacts application with photos. I tought that WM2005 would have solved the problems of 2003 and SE, but unfortunately it isn't true. Even worse, there is no photo contacts application any more in wm2005, unless I don't have the right roms.
I know that you can buy photo contacts from a vendor, but it used to be part of all the previous rom versions, what happened?
Does anyone have an idea about a good extended rom for wm2005?
thanks
You can assign photos and ringtones from the contacts, you must missed that in WM5.0
It's integrated in Contacts application
Check you contacts: the second or third line is called "change image". The same goes for ringtone...
Even better: now the image in contacts is synchronized with Outlook 2003!
Cheers,

Thanks guys,
but can you see a photo with an incoming or outgoing call?
Yes, you can!
otherwise it would be pretty useless to asign the pics
that is unless one had a poor memory and
would benefit from having a picture and name to go together when
trying to renember people

[Q] contacts issue

Ok, so this is driving me absolutely nuts right now...
I have my facebook synced to my contacts and many of my phone numbers I have gotten from my facebook sync. OK so Joe Schmoe shows up IN MY CONTACTS LIST, phone number is there, profile picture is there, everything is great until I go to send Joe a text. I go into my text messages, start typing his name in the top contacts bar and nothing shows up in the drop down menu. Now lets say i get a text or call from Joe, it will not show his name or picture here either, only his phone number.
So I guess I have two options:
Fix this bull**** show everything shows up how it is supposed to
or
Someone wanna give me a way to export all of my facebook contacts into something or merge them with my current list so it works?
A whole other can of worms is the fact that you cannot edit any facebook sync'd contacts in any sort of way and i think this is the root of my problem...
same i want to sync my contacts from facebook keep their info there but then i sign out and poof their gone and i can't keep it that way? -_-;;

[Q] HTC People app random contact picture change

Hi,
i have a question to all the Sensation users...
if you link a contact for example with, facebook, twitter, skype or any other account which allows you to download the account picture of the contact and you set the contact picture manually to the google picture of the contact (not facebook or any other account picture) does the phone keep it forever or does the phone change it randomly back to like the one contact to facebook picture, the ohter contact to skype picture or all contacts to the samme account but individual picture?
I have this random contact picture changes on my desire HD and if this is not solved, then the phone is crap for me...
Thanks in advance...
Nobody able to check this easy thing out....?

[Q] Use Facebook contact photo for GMail app sender image?

Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III, Stock ROM 4.1.2
With the new GMail App it displays the contact photo or a letter in the sender image, unlike a lot of people I like this feature, however I do have an issue. If I have setup the contact to merge my GMail contact with my Facebook contact and then make the Facebook photo the default, the phone shows this picture they call me, however it shows the letter icon in GMail. If I go back into the contact and change the default picture to their GMail contact photo, then both voice and GMail shows the Google contact photo.
Does anyone know how to get the dynamic changing Facebook contact image to work as the sender image in the new GMail app?
Thanks in advance

Hangouts 2.0 Contact Pictures

I installed the Hangouts 2.0 apk the other day and it's working perfect except I am missing one person's contact picture. He has a picture in my contacts app. Anyone else run into this?

The new Hangouts 2.0 can potentially show two different pictures for a contact. One of those images is the photo you've assigned in your address book while the other is the photo the other person has selected for their Google+ profile. I've seen this on my setup when comparing two conversation threads to the same person: one SMS and the other Hangouts (Gtalk).
Long story short.. Check to see if that person has a G+ profile and if they do, I suspect they haven't chose a photo for themselves.
I had his default contact picture set to his Facebook profile picture. I switched that to his Google+ picture and now it shows up after I force stopped the app. Thanks!
