Is there a reason that when you slect a contact and choose any of the options History, Activities or Media.... nothing ever shows up under those menus?
I thought it was supposed to sync with your SMS and facebook and show recent messages, sttus updates, etc.? And I do have my contacts synced with Facebook.
is this a breoken feature when running a custom ROM? Or am I just missing something?
Thanks for any info!
Anyone on this??

You have to sync with the integrated facebook sns and not through the facebook app from the market. If you go to add account you will see facebook under the integrated accounts header.

I am synced through there as well. As, even if I wasn't linked with facebook, I should still be able to see call and text history with my contacts... that's not showing up either. Thanks though...
Anyone else?

I have been trying forever to get the contacts on my phone (synced to my google account ) to sync up with my facebook friends. It will only sync a select few for whatever reason I cannot find. Any tips?

I had to manually associate each Google Contact with the correct Facebook contact. I did it through the built in "People" application.
If memory serves correct, you open a contact in "People" and it should show a broken link icon. Click on that and you can select the correct FB contact. After you select the FB contact the link icon changes to a "connected link" icon.
From there it should auto update status and pictures accordingly.
Ah I am using an AOSP rom so that might have something to do with it.

1) download the official facebook apk from the market and sign in and there will be an option to sync all ur contacts pics.
2)also u can do it the following way after installing the facebook apk, go to accounts and sync in settings, add account and select facebook and then sync.....
I've got the contacts from Facebook that have a mobile phone number entered on their profile. Easy and nice.
What about the contacts in my phone that have a Facebook profile but not added their mob info to their profile?
Is there an app to link those Ki d of contacts?

Go to your contacts and click on the friend you want to "join" to the facebook contact. Edit and press the menu button. Now you'll see "join" and touch that. Now pops up your facebook friends that match.
Awesome. Its going to take a while but glad they are now joined.
Any reason why the contact picture displays with such bad quality when making a call?

Anyone get it to work on EB1.03? I know it works on CM7 but it's still waaaay too buggy for me right now to use as a daily.
Doesn't work on the leaked rom either. Doesn't even give the option in the facebook app to sync contacts.

If you read up about the launch of the Nexus S and Facebook, you will see this is because Google removed the sync ability of Facebook. Google is pissed because Facebook displays it's contacts in the address book without storing it locally. Previously, Google gave Facebook special API access to the contacts app, but they have removed it as of Gingerbread. Facebook will have to update their sync so it adds it to the shared contacts of the phone.

I've tried to export all my facebook contacts to SD card and import them from gmail contacts on my computer.. but still no luck
Anyone have any ideas?

Google removed the ability in Gingerbread, use something like SyncMyPix if all you need is contact photos. If you need more than that I'm clueless.

I have a lot of contacts synced with gmail, but most of them are emails and i don't need them in my phones contacts. How do i delete multiple contacts at once?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Don't remember if you can do a batch select (I've only done it once and for the same reason) but you need to log in to gmail from a computer and edit the contracts from there. Also I believe in contacts settings you can set it to show only contacts with phone numbers.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
Like eb says using a computer you can edit the contacts. What I would do is setup groups and only sync the various groups with phone numbers.
Thanks guys, but i tried something else. I installed go contacts ex and then did a batch delete of all the contacts i don't want

Don't have that option. And i have one more problem. How do i sync all my Facebook contacts. When i was on gb and installed Facebook, the first screen would all if i wanted to sync all my contacts, sync with existing contracts, or don't sync at all. But now i don't see and can't find that screen

This works well for syncing fb contacts. You can choose all contacts or existing in the settings https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync

Open app drawer select People, then menu contacts to display, customize. Select your facebook account and it will show a box for all contacts if that isnt checked then it is only syncing with existing contacts. If you select your gmail account you will have the option to sync all the groups individually.
It says no contacts. There's no way to get to that screen on the Facebook app that asks how youwant to sync the contracts?

Clear all data log out and uninstall the app. Reboot your phone re-install the app. If that doesnt bring the option up then its go forever.
Maybe?

Found this. I haven't tried it since I'm at work doing a 24 hr shift. Figured I would let people know what I found. I plan to give a try after I get some sleep. If anyone gives it a go could you please let us know how it goes?

I logged out and logged back in on my Facebook account on my One S, and now my Facebook contacts aren't having their birthday displayed.
This had happened right when I'd begun using the phone too but somehow, until now, it had begun, and was displaying Facebook birthdays.
Is there any toggle button anywhere ?

make sure your app is sync correctly and dont forget to display the facebook on your contacts.
How do I make sure it's syncing "correctly" ?
Other Facebook stuff like "view Facebook profile" is displayed once I open the contacts. Just the birthday missing.

Have a look in settings then accounts and you should see facebook there.
Everything - Calendar, contacts and live feed is checked.
There is no other setting.
You have your birthdays displayed ?
