Syncing contacts

I have a question about the 2.3.4 hktw build is there a fix to sync Facebook contacts? I know blur isn't being used but is there another method to add fb contacts to address book
Try the blur fix.
I wish there was a way to fix exchange syncing. I can't get my email or contacts.

I've been using the version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775007. It can be installed alongside BlurEmail from Motorola. It uses a separate "Exchange" type account outside of MotoBlur under accounts.
Note: This version has been hacked to remove the Exchange security features. Using this against secured, corporate Exchange is grounds for firing in some companies. (If anyone has stock Gingerbread email without this hack, I would love to have a copy.)
I use it against Zimbra, because BlurEmail frequently truncates Zimbra emails with no option to "Get More". Using this on 2.2.x allowed me to read all my email, but I couldn't click on links or copy text from the email. It seems to work perfectly on 2.3.4 though.
Just found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15164552 that was pulled from 2.3.4 samsung. It might work for you too without the concern about the security hack. I haven't tried it though.
EDIT: I installed this version. It seems to work fine. In the menu there is an icon that looks like a Volume icon that seems to actually be refresh.
That was an easy fix by just creating a new motor blur acount and adding the social networks to the accounts tab.

[Q] Contacts Storage force close

Every time I access my contacts and try to view any contact I receive a force close for Contacts Storage app (process com.motorola.contacts). Is there any way to fix this problem?
I have tried a couple of ROMS to "fix" the force close, but nothing seems to help. I would be happy to provide any additional information that may be needed.
fixed the problem!
I unfroze Corporate Sync Authenticator.
I too am having trouble with this except my Corporate Sync Authenticator isn't frozen or uninstalled.

Make sure the Yahoo Authenticators are not frozen either, that is what caused mine to FC.
Thanks a ton, guys; this one just bit me, too. Stupid "Yahoo Mail Authenticator" ...
If you are getting this kind of problem in Samsung mobiles, just enable "Calendar Storage".:fingers-crossed:

[Q] Disappearing emails in email app.

Hi there,
i am using the email app to collectively get yahoo and gmail account emails.
However, some of my messages just disappear as soon as I read them from the notice bar.
It seem that emails read thru the email app -- directly -- stay there.
There are no options, or none i can easily find saying to delete messages from server or anything, but *those* messages also disappear without trace from server as well.
I experienced this with gmail as well as yahoo mail. just this morning the last time.
I am using v1.6 of ressurection remix, will upgrade today to 1.8.1, however, i think this might not be rom related as i think it happened in the past with other dev roms.
Any thoughts on this? For now i just disabled notifications in system bar and see if still happens...
thanks for any idea on how to fix this.
It seems i was too fast to upgrade. the data doesn't seem to connect to telus' 3g/h+ network anymore.. in device status, mobile network state keeps saying 'connecting'.. After a while it reads 'disconnected'.
I guess i will just have to wait and see what other 1.8.1 upgraders have to say.

[Q] Omega ROM | Lockscreen + Exchange fail

I recently installed the Omega v36 and have configured my exchange account for my mail. When i did i couldn't disable the lockscreen anymore.
Normally if my exchange account wasn't configured i could go to the menu and click the "Lock Switcher" icon to disable/enable the lockscreen. But at the moment i can not do that anymore because i just exchange. Is there any solution to fix this.
Hmm, It's wierd, I have same as you but all works fine...
Try to change that in settings and not in slide panel.
Greetings!

Not really, the mail client has been changed.
There were some issues when you add your microsoft exchange account in your mail client, the server could force you to make a pin code as lockscreen.
Later on a hacker fixed this and made it possible to take a pattern.
Later on Omega used this hack and made there own lockscreen in the menu to enable /disable the lockscreen. But at this moment this lockscreen function doesnt over rule the mail client.

Where can i find the settings?
PS: I tried and searched. The only thing to choose is password or pin. I cant disable....
I've have similar problems not only with omega but Ultima and even latest Samsung OTA over KIES.
When try to configure my exchange it tells me: Security update required and push me to set up lockscreen by pin or password. Even id I did this still cant connect and cant receive any mail

This topic isn't about that i dont recieve mail. It is about that the lockscreen "enable/disable" doesn't work combines exchange,...

[Q] Email Notification Updates

Hello. So I currently have my work exchange email and gmail setup on my phone. They are set to sync every 15 minutes. When I get a new email it shows in my notification bar on my phone as expected. However, if I look at an unopened email on my computer and don't touch my phone the notification will stay there on my phone and it will never update as being read no matter how long I wait. I.e, even though it has been read on my computer the email continues to stay in my notification bar as being unread long after the 15 minute refresh interval. On my previous HTC phone when I read it on the computer it would remove it from the notification bar on my phone showing there are no new emails to be read. Is this a glitch on the G3 or working as expected? It's a huge pain to have to open the email on my phone or swipe it away in the notification bar when the message has already been read elsewhere. Any ideas?
Thanks!
What software are you using for email? I use K-9 and don't have your problem. This isn't a phone issue, it's an email client issue.

I'm using the stock email app. I'd prefer not to use K-9.

Well, I can also verify the problem doesn't exist on the GMail app. And just as a test I temporarily defrosted the stock email app and tried it out as well and didn't see your issue.
Sounds like you've inadvertently done something to your phone to cause the issue. It's not a problem with the stock email app and it's certainly not hardware-related. Check and see what you've installed and configured on your phone and see what might be bringing this about.
If all else fails you can always factory reset your phone. :crying:
