I dont know if any of you guys used this function on 4.0.x, BUT I had all my Facebook contacts in my contact list (the people app on ICS). There was a option to "synchronize" all my FBcontacts with the facebook application, when I did so, All my facebook contacts with phone number turned up in contactlist (ICS People app)... Now it does the same thing but the other way... Facebook now try to find what contacts i got on my phone to synchronize with my facebook contacts... Anyone know how to get this function back? I used Haxsync to get high ress picture on their contacts...
It's kinda frustraing, cos now I've "lost" over 500 contacts... And only got my google contacts...
Hope I can get some answers... Cos I really want to get my contacts into my phones contactlist....
Are you on a custom ROM, Facebook sync does not work for anyone running a custom 4.1.1 that I'm aware of. Its on Facebooks side not ours....there's nothing you can do.

It worked on ICS for DHD for like a half year ago... I was using a ICS ROM... I do think that they have removed the function from facebook app, cos they have removed it with another function, as I said, they do it the other way....
I remember that there was a function on the facebook app that said "Sync contacts"....
EDIT: So you say that it works on ICS and below... And not Jellybean?

I'm positive its not working on Custom 4.1.1 ROMs.... can't say for the others. And I agree,like I said, our inability to sync is on Facebooks side. Our devices are set up to do it, they're just not allowing it currently from my understanding.

Oh God
If this is the case, then I am stuck in some deep problem loosing over 1000 contacts!!!
You booted back into the rom and had zero contacts correct? Facebook sync will not bring them over right?
Was the device ever backed up to google, while also backed up to Facebook ? Im backing up to both, so for me, my iPhone syncs them to google, when I boot into a new rom I go into google and snag my contacts. You can also download your Facebook info and attempt to go thru that.

After last nights Facebook update I can confirm Facebook sync is working on my cm 10 devices.
Edit: although the process seemed to work. It didn't. My contacts came back via google, due to syncing from another device, not a Facebook sync...

Could you please explain how your facebook contacts came back from syncing with google? Does that mean that you had synced all your facebook contacts with google before you changed your ROM?
Google sabotaged Facebook in 4.x to promote Google+. You'll need a custom ROM that's fixed it to have it continue working.
There's some third party apps that claim to get the job done:

What Google did was enforce something they've had for some time now, namely their data portability agenda which demands that shared data is to be a two way street. Facebook has known this for a long time, and the only reason it worked was because G gave F a temporary exclusion from this rule, but of course had seen no reason to oblige if they can get away with it. Hopefully F will come to realize this soon, and for us users (not that I like their app at all) it's up to us to demand this feature from F, not from G.
Just my thoughts about this, for the time being I'm using HaxSync

iPhone repost of pictures (via share)
HI,
I've been searching the forums but have yet to find. Does anyone know how to repost (share) another persons post/pictures using the iPhone Facebook App? Is there a different FB app that i can get for iPhone that does this. the current one doesn't have an option. The same app on an android phone gives you the share feature but not on iPhone. Any suggestions or help would be great.
Thanks in advance

Before you get ripped up in here, this isn't a forum for iPhone or that type of question buuuut since you're here, no, you can't share like that, you can save yourself a web shortcut to your home screen and use safari's mobile web view to share and get those features you're missing. No 3rd party apps can do it either. PM me for more info.
You guys don't rip on this too hard lol

Thank you @StarkCity for your reply. Was helping out my friends who are all iPhone users. I'm the only one of the group with an android Samsung galaxy S III & they are so jealous of the features I have and the ease of sharing on Facebook among sharing pictures and face identity which will send the pic right to them after I take a pic. So I felt sorry for them and figured I'd find something. Lol oh well too bad for them. Thanks again!!

Today I am launching TextHer app which enables users of android phone to communicate privately and securely between them.
TextHer
It is a peer to peer (serverless) messaging app where the messages are directly sent from one phone to another without being routed through or stored on any servers.Messages will be not be routed through carrier's server instead it will be directly sent from one phone to another using data connection.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spacenext.texther
Sending a message:
To send a message to another phone just type the primary gmail address of the phone,type your message and send it.
For example my phone's primary account is [email protected],Just type the mail address or just the account name(ramanean) and send a message
Features
1.No Registration is required and Free unlimited messages.
2.Secure/Instant communication between any two individuals
3.Instant Delivery of messages (unless the other phone doesn't have a working data connection)
4.Messages are not stored on any servers.they are stored only on your phones.
5."Background Send" option which allows a delivery of messages incase of a failure.
6.Messages are encrypted by AES standards
This app would make it difficult for law enforcement and spy agencies to track what is being communicated between two phones as the messages sent are encrypted by a standard AES algorithm and the messages are not stored on any server.It allows secure communication between two phones without the fear of being tracked for their messages.
Serverless:
It's not entirely serverless as we store the ips on our server and give it to the clients which enables phones to connect with each other. And I have plans to come out with another version which would never involve a server.
I hope I would get a constructive review on your site.Please let me know whether you need any extra information

a) This app won't be available in certain countries in the Middle East and south East Asia!
b) There is too much of snooping around and that's why I have come out with this app
c) On other hand it would help organizations like Occupy Wall Street and people in their protests.It would great help in free speech
MY answer to others who question my app!
Why do you need a intermediate person to message/communicate your loved one? Whether we use a third person to communicate with our loved ones inside our house? The answer is No.. and that is the reason I have come out with this app.
Okay here's what I discovered after a bit of goofing around:
1) You use app for a few minutes and it is impossible to get out. Pressing back keeps bringing you back to previous screen. In a loop.
2) I tried messaging myself. Didn't work.
3) I tried messaging on ramaean. App not installed
4) When I tried messaging to shangce, it force-closed on me.
5) You need to have a more consistent UI. You have used all the colors in rainbow
I don't want to come off as a ****, but if someone wanted to use an app for truly private communication I think they should be asking the following questions:
Could you describe in detail what happens to the text from the time you press Send to when the recipient's phone beeps?
How do we know your servers aren't logging our messages?
Why should we use your app instead of an encryption app?
Please don't take this as an insult to your app or hard work, but they are legitimate concerns for any security related app. I would be much more comfortable if there was an encryption feature.
You got some of the points wrong
a)My mail ID is [email protected] and not "ramnean" (use ramanean)
b)You can click on the home button in the bottom help menu to come out
c)I won't reveal from my that mail address "shangce"
d)I don't know which provider you are using.l
This app will not work if the phone has internal IP's!!
UI :
I need to work a big on UI As I always choose colors wrong

a) I used the correct id. there was a typo in above message. Anyway, this isn't a deal-breaker.
b) I should still be able to come out of an app by pressing back button. Don't you think?
c) Didn't get you.
d) It works after disabling WiFi. My bad.
e) You can try a two-colour theme.

What's the version of Android you are using?
Ok, so is this still a "NO" for us in the Middle East? Will you post the apk file here or will I have to wait till I get back to India later this month to download it?
Is there some reasoning for barring people based on location? Am pretty sure that:
a) A terrorist is neither in our midst nor that one would be wandering around in the xda forums looking for something they could use.
b) If they are aware of a software such as this they could always get one of their partners in crime to download it from an off site location and mail it to them.
Hope that you will post it here.

Remember that the app works only for external ip's it doesn't work for natted ip's (I am trying to fix it)
Send a message to yourself to see that whether it works for you! If you didn't get your own message then it won't work for you as you may on a natted/internal IP
Nice idea, flawed execution. No functionality in any of my tests. Currently attempt to use Redact instead.

Hopefully this is okay to post in this section. Although this app is payed for on the Android Market I am offering it to the XDA community for free.
SMS2PC is a small app that runs in the background on Windows, Mac and Linux and allows you to send/receive messages via your Android phone. This, at the time of release, was the first SMS sending app for Android. There are now lots of alternatives but I think my app still has the polish and desktop integration (you don't need to keep browser open) that some people prefer.
You can download the APK attached, copy over through USB etc.
To download the desktop client, visit: w w w .geekyscott. com / sms2pc/ (sorry i cant post links....)
I hope you will all enjoy the app. Please don't post it on other websites as I would like this to be an XDA-exclusive thing. In a few months when I get the time to clean my source, I will upload the source for everyone to use/extend.
Features:
Auto PC location (no need to enter IP address on WIFI)
Forwards SMS from mobile phone to desktop (osx, windows or linux(beta))
Multi-send messages from desktop
Phone address book sync with phone
Handles send notifications and delivery notifications
Secure Encryption
Customizable interface
USB support (enable debugging on phone)
WIFI support
Connect over internet via 3G
Syncs message history
Message smiles/emoticons
Custom desktop audio notifications
Streamlined, simple and clear interface
Thanks for being a great community.
p.s. My old account is ScottishGeek, it would be nice to merge that with this if any mods read this.

It can link to your computer via USB, WiFi or Cell. Cell isn't recommended unless you have a good quality 3G network. It will be able to send a message as long as you have the smallest connection to your cell tower. I for example, leave my phone in an area in my flat I get signal (near the window) and use my laptop to send receive deep in my living room where normally I am in a black spot.
So wait. This application will install on my PC, connect to my Android phone, and allow me to send SMS text messages to my phone contacts on my PC? I tried airdriod for that but I had to refresh in order to see new messages. Which was an inconvenience. If this is the case with this app, will it work in real time?

At this time there is no support for these messengers... but there is a possibility to make this happens. It really depends if the support 3rd party API's or if they have a simple database I can hook into. But sending may be a problem. Ill have a look.

If the Android API supports switching between dual sim then I will be able to implement this. I will have a look in the next few days.
Hi friend.. I think there is a problem between your program and Cerbelus. This morning I have been testing sending messages. Later, i´seen seen my phone communication has stopped working and then i have had to reset my device because was hanged. After reset and phone communications right i´ve received a message from Cerbelus with an alert message due SIM change. Now my Samsung SII works ok again but i turned off SMS2PC. Very strange. Can there be a conflict??

I am not sure why there would be a problem. I am using standard API's and Android design guidelines. I believe you are my first using using this Cerbelus software. If you could send me your logcat at the time of the problem I may be able to provide a fix for you.

I think it would be a great enabler for other apps in future.
Once again THANKS!!!
And great work!!!:good::good::good:
Awesome...
And thank you - I had been playing around some similar apps, but none really "fit the bill" for what I was looking for.
This looks to be exactly what I wanted, however - I'm having an issue with the connection over USB, I have it in debug mode and it's connected direct to the laptop, but times out at 12 seconds each time.
Can't test it over wifi because it's restricted from use in this environment, but will try it from home later today.
I suspect it will work just fine once I get it to the house, but it would be infinitely more useful here at the office...
Also, curious as to whether there might be some incompatibilities with one, or both of the OS's I'm using: Windows 8 Consumer Preview on the laptop and Ice Cold Sandwich 4.04 ICS on an Inspire 4G.
Hey everyone,
then next app BETA is finished "Easy Contact Sync".
Based on my last app "Easy App Toolbox", I created this new app for handling your contacts.
Contacts are saved as VCARDs (*.vcf files). This way they can easily be used in any other application that can handle VCARDs.
Feature List:
* Backup/Restore to/from Dropbox
* Backup/Restore to/from Google Drive
* Backup/Restore to/from Box.net
* Backup/Restore to/from SD card
* Auto Sync (automatically backup all contacts every night at 0:00)
* Directly send/share one or multiple contacts
I'm really looking forward to your feedback!
The app is available at the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.goddchen.android.easycontactsync
as well as via QR code

The app uses a freemium model again: free selection limit: 3 contacts at a time, auto-sync is also available via in-app purchase. As you are used to, you can freely choose how much you want to pay!

I wanted to know what the major difference is between this app and the google contacts? dont they both automatically sync my contact info.. ???
I'm not sure if this is already supported but if it dosent i want to make a suggestion for a feature ...
I've synced my contacts from google account(phone numbers) and facebook and linkedin and twitter... And manually put them together so each one matches the appropriate contact.. but every time i flash a rom i loose this data.. can you make sure that the links that are mainted are reestablished when i install a new rom and reinstallt the apps and sync my contacts so they atutomatically stich themselves back together.. ????

I've added photos from my SD card for higher resolution as it looks better during incoming/outgoing calls. Would love to be able to restore contacts without having to manually update the pictures!

In the current beta version, photos are not restored. But it is on the TODO list.

Hm, haven't checked this out yet. Give it a try and sync one of your facebook contacts. Then check out the generated vcf file.

I wanted to know what the major difference is between this app and the google contacts? dont they both automatically sync my contact info.. ???
I'm not sure if this is already supported but if it dosent i want to make a suggestion for a feature ...
I've synced my contacts from google account(phone numbers) and facebook and linkedin and twitter... And manually put them together so each one matches the appropriate contact.. but every time i flash a rom i loose this data.. can you make sure that the links that are mainted are reestablished when i install a new rom and reinstallt the apps and sync my contacts so they atutomatically stich themselves back together.. ????

Does your google contacts get synced to dropbox, box, or drive? or sync your contacts with google when you don't have a data connection?
I will check out the merging logic and if it can be backed up. Thanks for the suggestion
v1.0-beta1-2 Changelog:

Now compatible with Google TV (some clould service SDKs doesn't support Google TV!!!)

Heya... very nice app
I read about it today morning and want to test it immediatelly. After 2 mins of testing I bought the premium version right off. Exactly what I'm looking for.
The app and backup itself with DropBox works great on my Galaxy Note II.
Some whishes for the Future if possible:
- SD-Card-Backup takes only the internal card. It will be great if I can select the external SD-Card too
- It will be nice if I have an overview about activated tasks (what - when - where)
- It will be a nice feature if I can change the time and intervall of backup
Thank you for this amazing app.

It currently takes the default "external storage" returned by the Android SDK. But it's a good idea to add a setting for customizing the output folder Added to the TODO list
Well currently auto-backup is always scheduled to run at midnight. In the current situation, it is enough to display an on/off state of the feature. But adding customized scheduling is a nice idea, definitely on the TODO list and with that, of course, any overview about the scheduled backups

Awesome,
yes there were some guys that rated 1 star without giving any explanation in the comment. I have already contacted those guys via G+ but normally those guys won't respond. And therefore I cannot do anything about the causes of their 1-star ratings...
I have also experienced in the past that developers of competing apps and their friends are giving 1-star ratings to all competitors... that's very sad

1. No select all even after getting premium? REALLY? I have 300+ contacts and am not going to select them all one by one.
2. All cloud options fail. Nothing ever comes up about logging into them for the backup = constant FAILED TO UPLOAD errors.
3. After upgrading to premium why should i still see the button advertising for other apps? Completely out of the question.
4. Get rid of the dumb "how do you like this app" at the bottom. Unnecessary.
5. Add custom backup/restore path selection for backup to sd card and even cloud backups.
6. A settings option is a great invention that allows someone to configure all sorts of things and is an integral part of 99.9% of apps out there, yet this app lacks one.
I rated very poorly in the store along with a review until some of these features (most are no brainers imo) are added/fixed.
AW: [APP] Easy Contact Sync
Year... thats is typically for XDA for a lot of month ago....
every new app with potential will be rated poor or very poor at first...
In my opinion this is primary a discrimination on all the new apps and developers... Could this be the sence of rating? I don't think so... and this could not be the right way...
I have installed many apps which are rated poor or very poor. In any case at the moment I'm shure that these apps are one of the best.
In these days you can only read - especially the descriptions of developers - read and read... and than at least it is your decision if you install an app or not. In most cases developers describe exactly what an app can do and what not.
And than developers get an poor rating because not supporting an feature that never been discussed.
Thats crazy... thats real crazy... I'm very sad about this... I'm sorry... we all have got a great tool named Android in this case... and I'm shure too... these actions are not similar with the spirit of Android !!!

Our battery usage is much lower than Chronos.
On Kitkat, Chronos usually shows up with 5-7% of total battery usage.
LifeStats rarely shows up on the battery usage screen (and when it rarely does, it's usually at 2%)

Maybe a lifestats on/off option, to disable or enable tracking.
You have to attach the app to either Facebook or Google+ or you can't sign in? Is there a typical email sign in option I missed?

But internet permission and linking to an account is a big no-no for an app that tracks everything i do.
Make the account optional, and I'd really be interested.

Hi Everyone,
zoharby that posted this is a co-founder (along with me and a few others) in a startup company placer.io , LifeStats shows some of the abilities our SDK's provides for the client side (much more on the server side), we welcome anyone that would like to use our SDK (also iOS), just contact us.
Back to the LifeStats, I'm the actual client side programmer who coded the Android app and I will try to be active here and answer any question, I love the xda community and hearing from you will surely improve the app as we go along, please stay active.

We only read the age and gender from FB/G+ , it helps us better identify the venues you visit. At some point we will add a quick dialog to provide this info, for now you can be sure we don't abuse or post or do anything you will feel or dislike

We have an SDK and any developer can such cool ideas a shot in his own app, for now the lack of clear leader in the wearable field make development pretty risky and were not sure we have a "killer feature" we want to implement with those wearables, what did you have in mind ?

Press the car dealer place to enter the single place screen, you will then have a pencil icon on top and you can name the place and choose "private residence"

I think you add your gym to Foursquare but it will probably easy to modify the place
About Material Design, I'm a big fan but it was just introduced and its a bit early to modify the design, when Android L will be out it will be easier to get the proper feeling of how apps were modified to this Google vision.

We reviewed many services and they were the best, they might be weak in some areas, where are you from ? Do the places you attend exist in FQ ?
We can use information from our users to improve our results, if you fix the places our algorithms will learn from it, it just takes time
I guess at some point we might also use Google Places buts its very noisy and lack many info we need for our logic (popularity, opening hours and etc...)

DZ09 app
Hi,
I bought a DZ09 and received it last week. I am from the Netherlands...
I like the design and the display is also good. Some functions I will probably never use but in general a nice smartwatch.
I got mine for 28 euros and for that it is not bad.
Only problem is the software for the smartphone. The software you can download by scanning the QR code is Chinese.
Can not get that to work.
I have tried several app but I finally ended up with an app called RWATCH.
That one connects to the smartwatch, you can do all things with sms messages.
One thing is the app crashes to often. That is a pitty so I hope they will increase stability.
Secondly the health control in the smartphone RWATCH app does not seem to work.
Maybe I do something wrong or I just have to wait for an update of the app.
If the app runs it is a good tool.
Hopefully I will find some other software which will run smoothly on the smartphone.
Oh and I have a Samsung Note 4 running Lollipop nowadays.
for me the app downloaded to the barre code work perfectly

I know this is a little old, so hopefully you figured it out, but go here http://www.fundo.cc/other/download/FunDoAPP/
that's the qr code site. download the one labeled "BTNotifications Android". that's the one that works with the dz09.
Thank you thedarkharlequin for posting the proper link for us all above. I have had my DZ09 for just over 1 week. I had many issues with the original download wich is provided to you through the QR code located on the watch. After a day of fighting with it crashing all the time I looked to the app store on my SGH-I337M and saw a lot of promising looking apps that were all claiming to do the job. First I tried the BT Notifications like the watch said. Though it was an upgraded version it worked just as well as the first. I then tried other apps that claimed to work with the watch. Same story. Found an app called SmartWear which did the job for the notifications but left all the other capabilities in the dirt. Once I tried the link above I have had all functions and capabilities working 100%
Thanks thedarkharlequin - worked for me too.

could find a nice firmware or even somebody who have the nice firmware in his/her DZ09 and knows how to scratch it out for share (I don't know that stuff)..

For you guys who have had there watches for a while can you answer me a couple of questions.
When the phone and watched are synced I like that you can see who is calling but I want to be able to answer my phone to speak and not talk through the watch! Even when I make a call on the phone while paired to the watch it comes out of thr watch and not the phone.
While using Google music I want to be able to skip songs etc thr only way this can be done is if the music comes out of thr watch but not when it comes out of the phone.
Thanks

Chip is the same, and I think the specs. are similar enough for the firmware to work on our DZ09s (but what do I know(?)), unfortunately both links are down, but I see the watch here in XDA, possible with firmware, haven't got time for a closer look today (tonight DK time), but will look into that tomorrow!
Edit nov. 11,
OK folks, I am very short of time today, but would someone please take a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/ai-watch-z20-mtk6260a-t2957013 and this site http://forum.android.com.pl/topic/202745-aiwatch-z20/ ?

I checked the site and do what I'd had to do and my watch died so I used my guaranty now they repaired my watch
What I discovered is that we have a clone watch from u10 due to I found two types of firmware of the same watch but different type.
Our model is Zd09 no other so be careful cause you can install firmwares and they run buy your watch may be died or the screen can not work
batterry
batt damn , just bought and using about 3 hours, WEAK.
Can someone tell me if this watch is capable of sending/receiving text messages that come to your phone? I've been reading mixed messages on the net. I'm not talking about texts to the phone's own phone number.
Hey, I’ve got my hands on a DZ09 with exactly the cool animations, transition modes and watch-faces I believe quite a few of us are were looking for, but only for borrow. Does anybody know how to copy the firmware, so that we can work on getting it into our watches?

It most certainly can receive (via BlueTooth) messages sent to the pocket phone, it also receives emails sent to the pocket, and sometimes even (but not all) Skype messages. And you can browse text messages in your pocket as well as contacts and call records right on your wrist. I don't know about writing text messages and sending them through BT, haven't tried that because the keyboard/handwriting doesn't support Danish letters "æ, ø and å", but I suppose it is possible, only it's a very small screen for the purpose, don't think you would do that much as it is far more comfortable to use your pocket phone for writing.
