Hi, I have the T-Mobile Samsung S6 and I synced my Facebook Contacts. I realized the stock Contacts App displays all my contacts, so I selected Customized List under Contacts to Display and unchecked Facebook ALL Contacts. However, even after doing this my Facebook contacts STILL show in the list. Has anyone been successful in keeping Facebook Sync on but NOT having them display under Contacts?

Hi, I just flashed 6.1.1 and I really rely on the fact that my Facebook Contacts can sync with my GMail to create one big list. In the contacts app I see both groups just as I need. However, if I download an app such as GO SMS which replaces the default sms client, the only contacts recognized are that of Gmail and on my SIM card. The facebook contacts will only appear as numbers. Now having over 500 facebook contacts I cannot just add them all thats ridiculous. But, if I go into the default SMS client then the contact appears with name and picture...
Any ideas as to what's wrong?
Thanks in advance.
it seems my integrated facebook account will sync the calendar but not the contacts. anyone else with this problem?
i have a feeling it is on the facebook side because i'm coming from a captivate. when i look on my facebook page under Apps, it shows Samsung Mobile, but it says "6 months ago". I think facebook is confused between my old Samsung Mobile and my new one.
i think i figured it out. google supposedly changed the way you have to access android contacts forcing facebook to update their app. and consequently, the facebook app syncs just fine......but contacts only, there is no option to sync calendar.
the "integrated contact account" (that syncs facebook contacts and calendar even without the facebook app installed) fails on contact sync. the problem is this "integrated account" has not been updated (obviously because it was bundled with android 2.2). the "integrated account" synced just fine on my last phone that had android 2.3
Everytime I reflash, I seem to loose the merged contacts between my phonebook with facebook/twitter/whatsapp etc. My blackberry back in the day stored the connection as an attirbute in the contact object such as; fb://profile/XXXXXXX. Any apps that can back up the contacts with their other app relations?
apart from the contacts, I could swear that the facebook birthdays would sync to my calender as well. I seemed to have lost it, was it a friendstream functionality? Thanks
How come when I set facebook to sync only data for contacts I have it does under contacts. But if you tap the phone icon in contacts it brings up all of the facebook contacts. I have even tried unselecting sync data in the settings and in the pull down menu. It is starting to piss me off. The only way to get rid of it is to remove account from settings, then the ones I wanted to sync are.gone with the rest of my 300 facebook contacts I did not want on my phone. Now they are still there under "contacts'

I believe if you disable the full sync in facebook, and uninstall it-it should bring your sync'ed data off of it. Otherwise you could manually delete it within the system. I'd think its not that big of a deal though. Just my opinion.
Cant you just go into Contacts, click the phonebook button and deselect your Facebook account from the list. This would make it so it only shows your phones contacts in the contact list, but everything will still be synced with your facebook account.
You can go into sync under settings and click facbook and uncheck contacts I believe. This will remove facebook contacts from your contacts list. You can also filter the contacts list itself and tell it to only show contacts with phone numbers.
Since upgrading to 4.3 JB, facebook photos are not syncing.
I had CM 10.1.2 with JB 4.2.2 and contacts+ app before. When I add a person's phone number or email to contacts (people) app, contacts+ app would pull the person's facebook or linkedin photo (even though the person is not in my facebook friend's list).
No matter what app I try in 4.3 JSS, only my facebook friend's contact photo is syncing - not all contacts. Anyone has success syncing photos of contacts even if they are not your facebook friends? Is it Android OS thing or facebook thing?
Tried Ubersync, Haxsync, Contacts+, and SyncME (tried different settings, sync over data or wifi, sync existing contacts, all contacts etc.)
Waited for almost a week to sync - was in wifi most of the time
Tried: without facebook app and with facebook app logged in
Tried: autosync checked and also autosync not checked
Tried: PA 3.98 JWR, Carbon Nightly JSS
Note:All the apps listed above asked for facebook permission when i first opened after install and I gave permission by logging in to my facebook account.
Without a facebook or linkedin account, you will not be able to pull the photos.
Ubersync, Haxsync and now contacts+ syncs hi-resolution pictures. But in 4.3 ROMS, only syncs with facebook friends.
Anyone had sucess with facebook contact photos sync for all emails in contacts?
