This is not the correct forum - try in the "Q & A" forum instead, where this question should have obviously gone in the first place
Reported to Mods for moving.

Oh sorry

While you're waitig for the thread to be moved by the mods, have a look at Endymion. I don't use it as I don't like Sense, so I stick with Reaper ROM, by Endy gets all the recommendations from the guys on here who do like to use a Sense-based ROM.

Hey thanks for the fast answer, i hope yoh are in right

All you have to do is sign in to Facebook through accounts and sync. Then HTC Sense will request permission

whatsapp contacts sync has been messed up for a while anyway leading to alot of pictures not showing whether from facebook or the gallery.. twitter contact sync has also had problems recently and even got removed not sure if it's back.. anyway as others have said Q and A forum this is marked DEVELOPMENT

Contacts & CM7

Yesterday I finally rooted my device and flashed CM7.
One of the few things that I really enjoyed from Sense was the Contact syncing with FB (so their FB profile pictures were in my contact list and appeared when people called), and the dialer allowing me to type names rather than numbers to call contacts.
Are there any 3rd party apps or tricks in CM7 to get some of those features?

Try friendcaster from the market
I got your 10 char right here
Also go to settings/accounts and sync to add which ever fb app your using.

I'll check out the friendcaster. Thanks!
I use the standard FB app, and i've done the Settings>Accounts & Sync options for that but it seems like it didn't really link my contacts with their FB profiles. Thats the main thing i'm looking for.

You can always manually link them from the contacts app. It will suck if you have a lot of contacts.
Open the contact, menu, edit, join and it should find potential matches.
Sucks to do it one by one, anyone know if there is a way to have it run through all and make suggestions like sense does?

If they have the same name it should link itself. I usually have to manually add a few who have changed their Facebook name. Twitter can be added as well as linked in.

[Q] Facebook Contacts Sync in ICS?

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
Sent from my TripN HTC Sensation 4G Super phone with Ice Cream Sandwich using Tapatalk
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.

Anyone know can I link "My local profile" in the people app with my facebook profile? When I pick my facebook profile from contacts and select to join it my local profile doesn't show in the list. I've added my phone number under the dialer settings but that didn't seem to help either.
All my calls and texts are logged under the local profile and it's annoying.

If you go to the Unofficial CM9 forum, at the bottom of page 35 somebody else had the same problem with Facebook sync. At the top of page 36 PipelinerArd answered what to do.
Edit: Sorry if I sound like a d*ck, but the answer is there. If you posted that question in that forum, somebody probably could have helped you faster. If that doesn't help your specific problem, maybe somebody else in that one could help you out. I run that rom, but don't use that particular feature.

Thanks, but that's not my problem. I saw that when I read through that thread before I flashed the rom, and got FB-Sync from the play store. That sync'd all my FB contacts fine, and I can join all of those contacts with duplicates in my Google contact list fine. I just can't join MY profile with the "My Local Profile" in the People app.
And no, you didn't sound like a **** to me lol :good:
EDIT: After looking at it again it looks like the profile I'm trying to link is my personal profile saved to my Google contacts, not my actual facebook profile.

[S] [APP] Contact Picture Sync

Guys, I'm having a hard time finding an App that syncs Facebook profile pictures in HD to my phone contacts.
Haven't found a real alternative for HaxSync yet. HaxSync works for syncing the pictures in best quality, but only as long as the phone contac is named like the Facebook contact. PicSync seems to do it the right way by letting you chose a sync by Facebook ID (means it doesn't care about changing names), but it's no HD.
Any REAL alternatives, please?

WTF? We live in the 21st century and even HTCs social hub can sync by Facebook ID and everybody is telling me that HaxSync is the ONLY way for now?
Excuse me?!
HaxSync can and does sync friends manually, even though it's a bit less than user-friendly at the moment. The next update will make it much easier
Try this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInJvLndlZWRuZXQuY29udGFjdHNzeW5jIl0.
It connects by FB id... atleast that wat it claims
I've just tried contact picture sync and it seems working.
It's free and you can sync them manually in HD.
Is this what you are looking for?

Does it also sync all contact pictures by time schedule? HaxSync would be perfect if it would sync by ID and not by the stupid names.. you know how often girls change their ****ty names on Facebook - and boom, HaxSync doesn't recognize the person any longer and the conract picture catches dust. Awesome.

Just something HaxSync-like which keeps neatly in the background and syncs by ID on Jelly Bean. Can't be THAT hard, right?

Huge problem I have with this App: It does not really only sync the contacts in my phone list. I don't even want a facebook link in my contacts and I do NOT want to let Facebook import any phone contacts into the friggin' interwebz. I JUST want the goddamn picture in HD, synced by ID!

Roms with working Exchange?

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.

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)

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.

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.
