Honeycomb Facebook Sync for contacts - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I just wanted if some dev's already taken the benefit of root or some tweaks in order to make the Facebook conrtact sync work on the Xoom.
I know that it has been disabled in Android 2.3.3 but I know that some people, like CyanogenMod team make it work on Nexus S.
I really hope someone can help to have an updated picture of Facebook contact.
I guess that it is not so simple as modifying files, but I just wanted to know.
Thank a lot.

[Q] Calendar and Contacts help?

Has anyone found a way for the calendar and contacts to sync with your Gmail account. I know that the CM6.1 did it when I used it for a day but how about TnT or ZPAD builds?
I'm kinda surprised I haven't heard more about this. With all the developments making this a fully functional tablet you'd think more people need / want this.
Is there a way to extract those from the CM Build and dump them in? Or, Rothnic, with the Galaxy Theme can we extract the calendar and contacts from them somehow?
Or.... has this been done and I've completely missed it?

I think that if we could get the galaxy tabs email and calendar on the g-tab taht would be even better!!!!
Yes, please! I am running stock now that the update came out. Added Gmail, Market and Maps manually per another post, but I would really like to have the calendar as an app. Galaxy versions would be amazing!
Is the issue just not having the calendar app? I'm about to update zpad and i can include it.

Both of these were changed in TNT Lite 2.00, at the advice of another user who was looking for Exchange support (insight3fl). There could be other changes.
It's not something I use daily on this tablet, so I have to follow the advice of others with these apps.
Well... Ok, dunno if it was changed in the last zpad build but now all is working. The only other change I made was the market hack (and the angry bird hack) but all is working now
AGAIN, thanks roebeet and rothnic for all the hard work and all the others for your continued efforts. Yes I know there are still standing issues but this tab has become very tolerable in such a short time. I do empathise for those who want perfection right out of the box, and I'm limited in my android experience, but I've yet to see any device that would suit everyone's need stock.
Thank god for open source.

Any idea on 2.02 TNT lite how to enable exchange on the calendar?
I can only speak for my self, but the contact and calendar are one of the main draws for me. Having my phone and PC share all of this with the tab is primo.
Contacts seems to work (Sometimes spotty), but I have yet to get my google calendar to sync on the tab?

Thanks I will give that a try tonight and post up my findings.
Downloading Google Contacts
Folks - read the threads, but all contact issue workarounds seem to involve TnT Lite/rooting, and I haven't rooted (yet). I'm going to give VS a chance during the 20 Dec update to prove they are continuing to upgrade the product. I have one nagging issue - can't complete the Google contacts download - it stops at step 2 of 5 and says "unable - check internet connection" - which of course is not the issue. Makes sending emails a real pain.
Anybody else have this problem and have a workaround? I downloaded the contacts manually as csv and vcf files, but can't get the G Tab to recognize them (or let me move them from the Downloaded Attachments folder to the SD Card main folder)...
Thoughts?

[Q] Can facebook sync be re-enabled on gingerbread?

I've searched the forum and people have asked this question in different sections without a solution being posted.
So my question is, if we use the method in the following thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978470
should we be able to add facebook sync back to our gingerbread devices?
I don't know how to disassemble and re-compile apks otherwise I would have tried it and posted that... since people share ideas and work on this forum, I thought I'd post my idea and see if someone can make it work.
Thanks devs.

[Q] Wahtsapp + contactpics problem

Hey guys,
i and probably other seem to have this problem...
i flashed a new rom and everything else is working fine.. i synced my google contacts with my facebook contacts and they all have a nice picture in the contacts categorie as it should be.. also if i receive a sms or somebody calls me it shows the picture
but when i go into wahtsapp it shows only the green android symbol..
a few wich have a picture directly in my google account are shown, but not the majortiy with the fb pics
anybody an idea how i could manage for it to show the fb pics also
waht i find funny is, that a before i flashed to sense 3.5 it all worked like it is supossed to
best regards,
Hey, it may be so that with flashing the new rom your facebook contacts(and their respective pictures) are suddenly not accessible by third party apps. You can try the Photo Unlocker app made by ChainsDD. The app is legit and just requires a rooted phone.
Good luck and let me know if you find a fix as i had the same issue. Happily enjoying MIUI now tough
Kind Regards.
seems like a solid idea.. you mind sharing a download link?.. seems thats its not on the market anymore =(
Well that's strange, i guess it was actual doing its job then. Unable to find any legal free versions after a quick browse, can't help you anymore then unfortunately.
Anybody perhaps with an different idea?
Did you not get my private message?
ups.. didnt saw it.. but it worked great big thx to you
funny part.. i asked chainsDD yesterday on twitter why he took it down from the market and he responded:
"because it's broken... and I haven't had the time to fix it... :-(" .. seems that he was wrong
