Update yeah hmm Sync and Sync all who knew lol Thanks novanosis85 I'm one step closer to not being an Andronoob.
After you associated the email with the app then go to accounts and sync and sync all,

So what I did was basically a manual sync? On a different rom than what I'm currently running it actually told me "failed to authenticate" once when I associated my email with it.

it seems the only way i can sync the pics is to do it manually. i havent really checked out the calendar, but i know that the pics don't sync automatically.
I'm having this problem to. If i go to the accounts & sync and choose Facebook for HTC sense it shows the calendar isn't syncing. My friend stream widget hasn't updated since July 2nd. Any ideas?

what rom are you using? if its NRGZ then, it has that problem, and go to that thread: (rad through this entire page, you'll find the answer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362759&page=168) , I had the same problem, you should find your answer within the last couple of days post....the trick is that you need to sync your contacts with the "facebook for sense" under sync in settings, DON'T DOWNLOAD THE FACEBOOK APP, don't sync with native facebook app....once you have synced the first time with "facebook for sense" under sync (if its not there, you have to add an account, if you don't see "facebook for sense" you have to get the apk and push it to you /system/app") wait for all the contacts to sync and get their pictures...then if you wish you can download the facebook app. if this doesn't work the only way to do it is to do a factory restore and sync facebook, before syncing google. don't sign into google but instead go and setup facbeook for sense first and sync contacts first, then add google account.
I am using stock shipped rom...and i have already facebook app)) butt thank you for help

uninstall Facebook app altogether
if your using stock, you should already have facebook for htc sense in settings-->accounts and sync--> add account --> facebook for HTC sense. wait for sync to complete...download the facebook app ...
if it doesn't work...factory reset...don't setup google account but again go to settings-->accounts and sync--> add account --> facebook for HTC sense. wait for sync to complete...then setup google account, then download facebook app..
Okay i will try and i will say ))) )) thank you very much bro...

im back on stock, there is no option to add/sync facebook under add account and there never has been. facebook for sense is listed under all applications tho
I asked this in a different thread but it was moving so fast I think people over looked it.
Is there anything from the gb roms that i can do/add that will allow social hub sync my contacts? I loved how it showed all my Facebook friends birthdays in my calendar. i noticed HTC sense would do this too.
It might not be that its social hub that isn't allowing it it could be the calendar. maybe im missing a step. When I sign into my social hub fb account it shows to sync calendars but it doesn't show their birthdays.
Any help would be great. Thanks.

I know that after installing the Facebook app, you get presented with a screen which asks you what you want to sync. Personally I hate it so I always click 'do not sync' but I'm pretty sure it'll let you sync like Sense does?
Facebook app settings has a way to sync FB.
but the only thing the FB app actually sync is the picture and phone number, and maybe email, I don't remember it syncing birthdays.

I am running CM9 on my Touchpad and I am using the Hotmail app.
I can sync my contacts OK but I cannot sync my Hotmail calendar.
I can do this on my Android 2.3 phone.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

I use the same app and have no issues... have you tried wiping the app's cache and data then uninstalling and reinstalling
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
Yes I have tried several times to that.
When I go to the stock calendar, the only account I see is gmail .
And if I add a new account, I get message that the account is already there.
Any other ideas?

I'm referring to the stock "Email" app that comes with Android. Or have you thought of using it instead of the Hotmail app?
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
I believe this is a bug that started with Android v 4.0.x
For instance, my work email is a live365 account and my phone running CM9 will not my get emails, it's loading forever with default email app...
I have not tried the default email app.
The weird thing is that the email pat, even contact syncing works. It's just the calendar syncing.
I will post some screenshots of my TP when I get home.

With stock app, are you able to sync Hotmail calendars as well as contacts?
The calendar syncing is my issue, not the contacts.

I got sick of the Hotmail app and moved to the stock one and have ever since not been able to sync the Calendar. I'm not really comfortable with Hotmail calendar --> Google calendar --> Phone calendar. As mentioned by an other member earlier, this could've something to do with Android 4.0.x., especially since it was working with 2.3.6 for me. Have attached a few screen shots to show what I mean.
I guess this is a Hotmail (Microsoft) issue with Android 4.0.x
This suck becuase I have all my dates in Hotmail calendar.
I guess should move to Google calendar
Simple change in settings solved the problem for me.
1. Set Sync frequency to Automatic - Push instead of Never.
2. Turn on Auto sync.
3. Wait for it to sync.
Live calendar will then appear in android calendar.

No the issue is your setup because I have 8 Android devices and all of them sync both my Gmail and Hotmail accounts (mail, contacts, calendars and tasks) without a hiccup

Whats wrong with my setup? I have un-installed the app, cleared cache, removed all accounts. I have used stock email and calendar app as well. What else could i try.
I really appreciate your help by the way.

Of course Ive taken for granted that you have double checked all your sync options in the apps you are trying to use and set them to push correct?
Also taking for granted that you have toggled all those settings on and off and rebooted in between toggles correct?
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
I have tried everything you have suggested, but I do not get the calendar sync option. Please look at these screenshots.
Hi there
I have an acer iconia a500 (ICS)and I have the same problem. Well, everything was working fine but suddenly my calender and contacts didn't sync.I figured out that microsoft wants us to use the dedicate app from the market. You can still use the stock email app for email only. What you can do is use the microsoft app only to sync calendar and contacts.
Several people have had issues getting Hotmail to sync correctly when set up as an alexchange account. Personally I have tried it using the Activesync option and setting everything manually as well as choosing the option specifically for Hotmail which has default settings built in with no luck on either.
This seems to be happening with some of the newer custom ROMs for others as well. I can get it to work on stock and Fresh 5.1.1 with no problems. I've tested it with MeanROM and ClassicJewel and can't get it to work.
Is it possible that a memory tweak or removed apk is preventing it from working correctly?
Edit: Hotmail is also apparently working okay on Charmeleon and Flex360 without issue.

I'm on Viper and I ended up dumping the built in email client for Hotmail and installed the Hotmail app in the Play Store. Haven't had any issues with receiving email with the Hotmail app.
I am stock and hotmail is being flaky, with both the hotmail option and the active sync option

I thought I was the only one with this issue. I don't have a custom ROM but I am rooted. My hotmail has only synced twice in the past 5 days.

I would say maybe it is a Hotmail server issue but it works okay on some ROMs and with a 3rd party email app (Enhanced Email)
