Is it possible? If so, how? :S
And how about Facebook syncing with the phone app, I mean it can be done in the HTC Sense phone app but not the stock ICS one.. Is it also possible to flash a HTC Sense phone app?
Thanks

Hi, No you can't use any sense program as far as I know without sense running even if you have sense installed. As for facebook, when you install it and run for the first time it will ask you what you want to sync, I personally choose everything but it also will allow only existing contacts. If you need to access that again to change it can be found under settings and accounts. I also you friendcaster and that will sync your fb contacts with your phone as well. Hope this helps.

Seems to pull in the contacts alright, but it doesn't properly merge them with existing contacts.
I used HaxSync to sync my Facebook contacts

I prefer the HTC Contacts app so I installed HtcContacts.apk, ContactsProvider.apk and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk from ARHD 5. Once all your contacts sync up, you can merge them and the changes do transfer over to the stock ICS contacts app if you still prefer to use that.
Edit: I also installed Facebook for Sense from the ARHD ROM, though I'm not sure it was required to get sync working.

Well, for Sense ROMs, the Twitter for Sense is custom built for sync purposes... So if that is working you needn't bother with the Twitter app anyway. That takes care of problem no 1
As for syncing contacts on the non-Sense ROM (tickles me every-time I type that)... which one are you talking about?
P.S. : As far as contact syncing goes, you won't find anything better than Sense! Period.
At now i don't have a Sense with ROM..
And with the Twitter app i can't sync the contact with the phone becouse don't work..
I like to know if there is an app or a solution for solve this problem..
Thanks
Hey I installed AOSP dialer and contacts but I can not find how to sync them with facebook. I really liked the Sense dialer linking between Google contacts facebook and more. I want my contacts to have picture and birthday reminder and etc. but how to sync them to facebook. If there is no option is there an application to do this?
You can't as stock Google doesn't sync with Facebook as Facebook doesn't use the Google Contact API
Haxsync from market...

Thanks. But I don't think this is exactly what I am looking for or I can't find how to do what I need. So the program synchronizes only contacts with the same name or which were synchronized when I was with HTC dialer. I can't anywhere to manually atach a Facebook account to google account. I am searching for this type of program.
I have to up because I didn't got answer to my question hope that is not counted as spam.

Look in the HyperNonSense ROM thread for the "extras" and find the "facebook_sync.zip" which is flashable from recovery. This will replace your contacts.apk and contactsprovider.apk with modified versions that work with the original facebook sync.
Flash it, clear cache/dalvik cache, reboot.
Go into the FACEBOOK APP and then go to settings/accounts and add it from there. If you try to go through the system settings -> accounts/sync -> and add it there, it won't work (at least not for me). After I flashed it, I tried going straight from the accounts/sync and it appeared to act just like before.. you select facebook and then nothing happens. However, when I loaded up the facebook app, it asked right away if I wanted to sync my contacts just like on gingerbread.
Do a nandroid backup for sure...
I'm on the OpenSensation April 9 build if you were curious what I flashed it over.
Hope that helps.
Thanks a lot! That's what I am looking for but I can't manage it to work. I installed trough 4ext recovery and wiped cache+dalvik. I am using ARHD 6.6.1 + http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1470497 this mod for AOSP. In the facebook app in settings the only options about contacts,accounts is about whether to sync or not to sync so I chose to sync with existing contacts. Nothing really happened and in settings->account/sync there isn't anything new to add. So for now nothing new has happened could you guide me more what should I do to mange to get it work.
any one can help me and backup the HTC for facebook application and upload it here
i don't have it in my sensation i have only the facebook
thx

I'm sure you mean Facebook for HTC Sense.
That actually is a system application that syncs all Facebook data with your HTC phone.
It's alright if you don't have it. It is still present on your phone, you just can't access it directly.
(For example, if you go to people and check your Facebook contacts, it will have the person's latest updates, photos, etc. That is how Facebook for HTC Sense works.)
i don't have it even in accounts i can't add account for facebook for HTC sens
or widget
Details about your current ROM, please?
Android version 4.0.3
HTC sense 3.6
software number 3.32.415.15
Is it possible for you to go to People and check your Facebook contacts, it will have the person's latest updates, photos, etc.
As for the widget, you have to use Friend Stream
yes i can check the update for contact
but i was checking for the facebook for htc sense and it's missing

It doesn't matter, because Facebook for HTC Sense is only responsible for integrating Facebook contacts into your phone and providing you access to their photos and updates through the People application. So, don't worry, you have it on your phone, it just doesn't show up in Accounts & Sync anymore.

All of the Facebook versions I've used have had the options to sync my friends into my contacts and I've used many, I switch roms very often and so download Facebook regularly.

I have trie both Revelation and ViperS, but none of them works with Exchange (not possible to add account).
Is there any other roms on Jelly Bean for HTC Sensation XE that can handle Exchange accounts (and Facebook syncronisation)?

Do you need it to be Sense-based? If not, have a look at droidevs HTC Sensation ROMs & Development.
It's a bit of a jungle because of the many virations and many(!) updates, but all of them are supposed to support exchange, and those that don't (in their current version) are already identified in the forum threads.

I already tried CM10 but I live since years with the Sense Theme and when other users uses that why not me Everything looks nice but the exchange-connectivity...
You guys do realize there are alternatives to sense email client? Im using Touchdown since first day, and its 10 times better with more options than email client from HTC.

You CAN use exchange with JB Roms.
This is how you do it:
Iceberger said:
With a help of an older JB rom (an ICS rom wont work), in this case ViperS v3.0.0 and Titanium Backup I came with this workaround.
1. Install ViperS v3.0.0 (JB) and add your Exchange and Hotmail accounts. in v3.0.0 it works!
2. In Titanium backup choose Accounts and Mail 5.5.2311133269.528614.493299 (E-MAIL ACCOUNT SETTINGS) to backup
3. Install ViperS v3.1.1, Restore Accounts and Mail 5.5.2311133269.528614.493299 (E-MAIL ACCOUNT SETTINGS)
4. Reboot
5. In accounts & sync enable synchronization for Exchange and Hotmail (and POP accounts, if you have them)

Will CM10.1 work with Exchange on my Sensation XE?

You restored facebook app along with data? Dont do that never if u did. Just add account and let it sync it self, never restore any Sense apps, or apps like Facebook or Twitter which have Sense integration.
I didnt restore facebook. I just installed it. It seems like its a sense issue. It works with CM10.1
Any ideas?

This is a workaround, not a fix.
You should be able to change password, but I am not aure.
For multiple accounts, just add 3 or more accounts in 3.0.0, and delete them after restore in 3.1.1. Then if you'll ever need to get them back, restore again using titanium, and you are good to go.
This is only until the devs fix the issue.
And if this is inconvenient, just use another mail client for the time being.

Happy to help.

Too young here, I can't post on dev thread.
I desperately want to forward my bug report with logcat and so on to devs but i'm too young here. I've opened an issue on their issue tracker on Team Venom web site but 2 days later it's not validated yet...
Waiting for a fix. Meanwhile I keep my Albinoman CM10.1 witch works very well.

ViperS will most likely fix it in the next issue. You can use some other mail client for exchange if you want for the time being.
Hi, I want to sync my contacts photos with Facebook. In the past I used HaxSync but it's not compatible with Android Lollipop 5.1.1 . Is there other apps or a way to use Facebook contacts picture for my contacts?
Thanks. :fingers-crossed:
Contacts+ should do the trick.

But I can use stock app for contacts?
Install the Facebook app, sign in, go into settings, set contact sync on. Works perfectly
Is not work with Galaxy devices, never worked in my life with Galaxy. (now the sync function is ON)
I've had a S2 , now I came from a LG G3 and thought that Samsung had already solved this problem . It's ridiculous how something so basic does not work on Samsung phones!
It Won't show Sync option. At least on SM-920I.
It comes with and pre-installed version of Facebook that is only a downloader, i think this is the cause that we cannot sync contacts.
Use Sync me
