You can use gmail sync in your settings to put your contacts in your phonebook.

That's the best option right there. Assuming you have been keeping your gmail contact list nice and clean.

Facebook sync in gingerbread.

Anyone get it to work on EB1.03? I know it works on CM7 but it's still waaaay too buggy for me right now to use as a daily.

Doesn't work on the leaked rom either. Doesn't even give the option in the facebook app to sync contacts.

If you read up about the launch of the Nexus S and Facebook, you will see this is because Google removed the sync ability of Facebook. Google is pissed because Facebook displays it's contacts in the address book without storing it locally. Previously, Google gave Facebook special API access to the contacts app, but they have removed it as of Gingerbread. Facebook will have to update their sync so it adds it to the shared contacts of the phone.

Google removed the ability in Gingerbread, use something like SyncMyPix if all you need is contact photos. If you need more than that I'm clueless.

[Q] Qusetion about contacts (History, Activities, Media)

Is there a reason that when you slect a contact and choose any of the options History, Activities or Media.... nothing ever shows up under those menus?
I thought it was supposed to sync with your SMS and facebook and show recent messages, sttus updates, etc.? And I do have my contacts synced with Facebook.
is this a breoken feature when running a custom ROM? Or am I just missing something?
Thanks for any info!

Anyone on this??

You have to sync with the integrated facebook sns and not through the facebook app from the market. If you go to add account you will see facebook under the integrated accounts header.

I am synced through there as well. As, even if I wasn't linked with facebook, I should still be able to see call and text history with my contacts... that's not showing up either. Thanks though...
Anyone else?

Facebook for htc sense - birthdays missing

I logged out and logged back in on my Facebook account on my One S, and now my Facebook contacts aren't having their birthday displayed.
This had happened right when I'd begun using the phone too but somehow, until now, it had begun, and was displaying Facebook birthdays.
Is there any toggle button anywhere ?

make sure your app is sync correctly and dont forget to display the facebook on your contacts.

How do I make sure it's syncing "correctly" ?
Other Facebook stuff like "view Facebook profile" is displayed once I open the contacts. Just the birthday missing.

Have a look in settings then accounts and you should see facebook there.

Everything - Calendar, contacts and live feed is checked.
There is no other setting.
You have your birthdays displayed ?
