Stock Contacts on CM9 - HTC Sensation

Hi,
I'm using a CM9 Nightly. I really like how the phone behaves now, but something I really miss from the stock HTC software, was how it integrated my Facebook contacts into my phone's contacts. It synced all the contact details from my friends, and made it available for offline viewing.
I've tried the official Facebook app. No joy. No additions to my phone's contacts at all. Even with contact sync turned on for that acc.
I've tried Friendcaster, that synced the names of my friends to my phone book, but no contact details for offline viewing?
The stock "People" on the stock HTC ROM had a great way of doing this.
Any clues?

thanks, having trouble looking for this one!
Have a look on this site many free applications

Only thing is, you can't turn facebook chat notifications off from the android app, so I get notifications from both. Also you can't see who's online.
Will we get updates for this being as though it's not installed through the market?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
I put this on so people can experience it before it becomes widely available on the market so no you won't get updates but if all you are going to do is complain about it don't use it your choice
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
Thanks for it.
Not complaining about it as I personally think it's fantastic... I've stopped using the official facebook app now which has fixed the double notification issue. I use friendcaster now which is much better in my opinion, I set friendcaster to notify me of a new message then when you click on the pop up it takes you into the messenger app! I just hope they update so that we can see who's online.
Finally is anyone else getting the message that there's an update? Anyone have the apk for that?

Google has disabled Facebook sync with stock android starting from Gingerbread 2.3.3 (or 2.3.4)
It has to do with some privacy policy things regarding contacts. http://goo.gl/W0SPB
Ok, thank you!

Many roms have re-enabled Facebook sync though. I highly recommend Peter Alfonso's ICS Bug less Beast. I think there is also an app on Google market that gives some sort of work around, but not entirely sure.

Weird Data Usage?

Please see screenshot.
Does anyone know why Phone app would be using data? And what exactly is HTC Apps? My best guess is weather etc but not sure.

It might be for your contacts stored online. Do you have pictures for your contacts?
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
When you click on the app do you get any details?
I don't see phone in the ICS native data manager, but I do see it with the app I use: my data manager, but it won't give me detail on the usage.
The only thing I can think of is Facebook syncing. It pulls status messages down etc.
Sent from my HOCKS
Nah there's no real info when I click it. But I think you might be right about the Facebook syncing, that's a he'll of a lot of data (70mb) in a few days though!
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
When I checked my Wi-Fi usage it had almost twice the amount for phone.
I turned off "live feed" and calendar sync in my Facebook account settings. I'll see if than makes any difference.

Yeah I'll do that too, thanks for your help man.

[Help] FB_Sync Contacts Fix for CM10?

"Fb_Sync contacts fix" only works for CM9 so far...
Is there any tweak to sync contacts from Facebook for CM10 so far?

I'm not 100% sure about full contact syncing, however if you're looking for something to sync contact pictures, this app does the job: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=heinrisch.contact.picture.sync

[Q] productivity screen. SMS not working anymore?

Hey,
As mentioned. In my productivity lock screen the message feature for my sms stopped working since the last time I changed the background picture. I changed it since then several times but it doesn't help...
Any ideas?
I'm on stock rom with sense 4+ and android 4.1
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I guess you either have to clear the cache of the sms app or the cache of any lockscreen-related app. Take a look in the app list and clear the cache of what seems the most related to the lockscreen.
Cache cleaning didn't work...
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
What do you get exactly in the lockscreen? No sms or nothing at all (email,. lost calls, etc)?
No just the SMS. Mail, weather etc everything works...

You probably did this but, have you checked the productivity lockscreen options? There you can choose what must be displayed, sms included.
Yeah that's the reason I'm writing. It just stopped working even though checked in the option list. Don't know what it could be
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
There is also an option in the sms app options. I just noticed this. It should be on by default, though.
Thank you!!! That was it
