[Q] Facebook and phone contacts - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello to every one.i am using X-Bean 3.0 and the only thing that i want to know is if there is a possible way to sync my facebook contacts with the phone contacts.like you can do with the stock rom.i am new to samsung phones (i used to have HTC) so if anybody can help me that would be great.
thank you all!:cyclops:

The option is not available since ICS. You can use Contact Picture Sync, it's an awesome app, but it syncs pictures only (no status updates or a link to your friends' profile). However, it's the only app I've encountered that syncs high resolution pictures.

[Q - SOLVED] Facebook Contact Sync Error [Mod Please Close!]

Running Froyo 2.2.
So basically for the last 2 months, facebook contact sync has had the same annoying error.
"Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."
But the sync picture with the red/white exclamation mark is only by the Contacts. Maybe once every 100 syncs work.
I've tried removing the account and then re-adding it (and still get the same problem). I do have the Official Facebook app installed, along with using LauncherPro.
Any ideas? Also, when I sync Google, it works.
Thanks!
Tony.
I get the same error, but for some reason, all my contacts get added to the contact app.

Are you running Froyo (with a root)?
I had a rom a few months ago that would not sync my Facebook contacts at all. Did it have this syncing problem when you first put your Froyo rom on or did it start later?
It happened after. I think it had to happen after, because I had to do a hard reset to install Froyo, and it was syncing well for a few months (or weeks).
It could be one of many problems then. Do you have any other problems besides facebook sync? Market or anything else?

I'm using the one released on here, considering I'm in the US and it hasn't officially been released yet

I'd suggest a different rom then.

I can get Facebook contacts loaded into the Contacts on the Captivate, but then I have to join them one by one and the pictures get compressed.

Try hitting the menu key in your gallery and if the menu pops up select from device only, that way it works only with your pictures from your camera or ones you download.

Facebook notifications don't work

On my note 2 when someone replies to one of my threads or messages me I would get a notification but it doesn't work on the HTC one
Anyone any ideas ? I've looked at the settings and can't see anything
Thanks

When you first launched the facebook app, did you sync when given the option?
Even though that option is for contacts, I noticed with previous phones that if I don't sync it I won't have notifications come through.

Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4g custom ROM modding

Yo! So, I know this phone is kinda old, but I'm still rocking it. My question is based on the fact that I've tried pretty much every custom ROM and I'm currently using CM10 4.2 and I'm really not digging the contacts and messaging app that comes with it and most of the custom roms for jellybean.
So, I am wondering if it possible to replace the apk with an alternative from the play store?
Any help would rule. Thank you so much to the developers for making this phone so customizable and easy to change!

Try aoip it up to date all other roms are discontinued
There are several dialing and message apps in the play store. I think the contacts app I use is Rocket Contacts, or something like that. As for messaging apps, I will have to look at which I am using, but there are several, most of which are good, I would imagine.
