Facebook contacts sync - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
as you probably know facebook had problem with synchronizing contacts with android on ICS. Recently I installed facebook app on my galaxy note that has ICS. Contacts synchronization worked like a charm. But I still can't sync on Asus Transformer. Synchronization completed without any errors, but it has no effects in People app. Do you have the same problem?

Facebook contacts won't sync

Hey guys, I am running cognition 2.2 b9.1.3 and cannot get the Facebook pictures to sync with the contacts. I have the names correctly entered and have manually synced. In the Facebook app however I do not have the sync option like my friends with the g2 and nexus one has.

no sync calendar possible?

Hi Folks,
i am comming from various HTC mobiles and now wanted to try an tablet.
After a few days of research I came to the Acer A700 and orderd me one.
First everything was fine - the I synced the tablet with Outlook 2010 using myPhoneExplorer. I do not want to use google for syncing. There is too many data in my contacts and calendar I do not want show up in whatsoever net.
Contacts working fine, the Calendar sync was also successful, but I found no way to display the contacs. I was alwas asked for a google account.
Does anyone here has an idea how I can get a sync calender working on this device? I tried pocket informant and the build in calender to test. I reset the tab and tried to create a new appointment - choosing a local calender - it was not possible. the question for a google account again.
Any other ideas? Otherwise the Tab will go back on monday.
Best Regards
Umqi
Not sure. I use the Touchdown app for all of my Exchange sync, because I didn't want ANY mixing of my work information with my personal. Works great.

Hi,
I tried it with my google account, but without syncing outlook to google no appointments are shown in the A700 Calender nor with any other calendar app. I think it will go back to amazon tomorrow.

[Q] Facebook Sync?

So I am on the Verizon variant of the GS3 and I am running CM 10.1 the first Monthly build and its running great except for one issue. While running CM 10, my Facebook contacts and calendar were syncing just fine but once I updated to CM 10.1 M1 it has stopped. I even have the HaxSync App on my phone and it still refuses to sync with my contacts. I made sure Sync was enabled under Accounts for Facebook and under my Contacts settings too. I've tried removing the my FB account and still nothing. Any help would be great!

[Q] Exchange with Google Calendar

I am having issues with my Exchange work calendar and the Google Calendar app. I had just switched to using the Google Calendar app to test it out. I can add an event on the Google Calendar app for my Exchange account just fine. But when I get into Outlook on my computer and check my calendar it acts like that event was added by someone else and I was invited to it. Has anyone else had this issue? I didn't have this issue with the default Samsung calendar app on the phone.

I had issues with Google calendar app syncing to my exchange as well. I finally just gave up and went back to the Samsung calendar

That's what I will have to do too if nobody has a solution for this.

Questions from a longtime XDA Member recently converting to Galaxy S8+

Hello all I have been a long time XDA member and took a leave of absence due to MS not really tailoring to Windows Phone.
I just picked up a S8+ and it is a nice device but I am struggling a bit and remembered how hopeful this site is.
Is there a single email and calendar application that can handle all my email accounts (live, office 365, work exchange)?
In addition I seem to be missing a good bit of contacts as I have my primary live account and gmail account on the device.
I can tell you this is a nice device but coming from Windows phone setup is tedious I have to figure out my facebook contact sync and WhatsApp sync as well.
Any tips from a convert would be greatly appreciated
Thanks for all your help my new family
I have been away from xda for quite sometime because I had an iPhone, switching to this phone also was a bit painful but it turned out to be easier than I thought.
You have Gmail, I'm using it for my work email (Microsoft), Hotmail, Yahoo and my Google account. It's works very nice.
As for the missing contacts, you can go to settings and accounts and add any account you want, open it, and activate contact sync. Not sure if it can sync Facebook contacts. Or you can just try from the Facebook settings
Hi there,
im using Outlook for syncing mail and calendar. However using samsung calendar app you have everything synced and good to go. Also, you can sync your exchange/office365 to show your contacts in contact list.
What have I notcied, that Microsoft have much improved their apps on Android. Take a look at BlueMail as well - it syncs gmail and office and any other mail you need.
For Facebook i'm using Metal as I hate stock facebook app.

Yeah but the native Samsung Email and Calendar apps don't grab this information. In addition adding new contacts is such a pain as you have to do it directly in the outlook app instead of the default phone/contacts app. I have had this issue numerous times.
I hope they are able to fix this as I shouldn't have to migrate all my shared calendars to google from outlook.com to be able to work with them.
Great device but these items should just work and I think it may just be a Samsung issue I am working on getting another device to test.
As amon87 said BlueMail is the way.
