Or you can just wait till ICS get official, contacts will support Google+ sync, then just make all your friends use G+

[Q] How do I "bake" Facebook info into my Google Contacts?

I want to "bake" my facebook info that the HTC app has downloaded into my contacts. This means when I access the contacts from Google or I disconnect the Facebook app, I want the Facebook info to still be there.
How do I do this?
Thanks

Does anyone know the answer to this?
I also want to add: I want to combine facebook, twitter and skype users with my google contacts. I have duplicates in file and it is bugging me...
When you sync your phone with Facebook (twitter,ect.) Wait until it is finished. Then goto contacts->soft menu->import/export->let it do its thang. That's hoe I did it! Hope it works guys!!

No, unfortunately it hasn't. I can not touch the contacts created with twitter or skype or facebook. How could I merge them?

Delete just phone contacts.

Hi guys, I took the time this past weekend to reallu clean and sort my contacts on gmail. Now it works greay, but I still have an issue as there are lots of contacts that still have unknown and phone contacts joined to them, so when i try to join some twitter or fb contact I can't because of the 5 contacts joined limit.
How can I easily remove al conravts from the phone.
The ideal case would be just google contacts with their twitter and fb joined...
Thanks!

[Q] How many of you sync your Facebook Contacts with Phone?

Once last time, I sync my Facebook app with my phone contacts. Then it "mess" up my contacts such as changing for me names of my contacts to what the contact use in Facebook. Because of that, I had nightmare.
I am just curious how many of you do sync your Facebook app with phone contacts? I ask because with all the integration of Google with Facebook and Twitter or even with social media websites, I was wondering to try sync again or not.
Like what's the benefits to sync?
Share your views please.
Thanks!
Someone from androidforums.com commented that:
I do. I found that to solve the problem with Facebook last names, you link the Facebook contact TO your google contact, not the other way around. If you link the Google contact to the facebook contact, it will use the name that's on facebook.
I find it extremely helpful to have my facebook contacts right in my phone. That way, if I need to contact somebody that isn't in my regular phonebook, i can contact them quickly.

[Q] Infuse with CM 10 unable to sync FB Contacts

Hello, I recently updated my infuse to CM 10 and have been mostly enjoying it.
I have one huge problem however, which is that I can't sync my facebook contacts
I don't fully know why. I can get my gmail and g+ contacts, but not my facebook, and seemingly, more than half of my original contacts came from facebook (I'll be sure to fix that).
I need a fix to this, if anyone knows what to do to get it working. I'm not sure why it wont, I've tried redownloading the fb app, deleting its cache, and even removing all phone contact accounts and re adding the, but to no avail.
Can someone please help?
That has not worked since ICS. It was disabled by google I believe..
You can try Liquid Smooth which has a hack to allow fb sync.

There is also Contact Sync for Facebook in GooglePlay that can be used.
Try friend caster. It has some cool features that the Facebook app doesn't have

if you ask me that contact sync feature is a huge privacy violation. having the facebook app give facebook your phone number, and anybody who also has your phone number can see you in the freind finder on their facebook app. when started seeing people i used to work with and other people who i had no buisness seeing their facebook account in the "people you may know" or whatever i deleted the app and let a few of those people know who probably would want to stay anonymous so that they could do the same.
at this point i'm not sure why i still have a facebook. but i probably wont for long. google+ is no better. i'll stick to the traditional google services in the future, ya know the ones that only allow me to see what's going on in my life.

This one doesnt sync phone numbers which I find pointless. It will however bring over all your friends as contacts to your phone with their pictures attached... still pointless if you cant call/txt them.

Friendcaster has a built in fb to contact sync and from what I can see that doesnt import numbers either.
