Hi i got streakDroid 2.0.0 and when i go to contacts and then Account Settings, I
add my Google Account...works fine,
then I add my Twitter Account .... works fine.
Then i want to add my facebook Account, giving it my login data it works fine, the facebook apps open and i can use it like the way befor. But then the Facebook account is not in the List of the account. And in continue there are no Facebook contacts in my Contacts List. And this is sucks
When I go to Account Settings again and click "add facebook" it loads 1 second and bring me back to Account Screenm but again without the FB Account.
Can someone help me here?
I think this is more to do with a disagreement between Google and Facebook about contact sharing than a problem with the ROM. I think Google took integration out of the ROM for 2.3.3

hey...
i saw my frnds galaxy 3 with some custom rom...he had facebook pics in the dialler and also status updates when he called anyone....
i have a problem in Facebook synchronization...
i get all my facebook friends dp in my contacts but not wen i call them....
is der a way to atleast get facebook pics wen u call someone?
To achieve this, you mustn't link the contacts in your list with the contacts from the FB-app, but with the Facebook-account you can set up in the account-menu (in options, it's preinstalled!). Hope you unterstand what i mean ^^.
Basically what he means to say is that you need to go to Menu---> settings--> Accounts and sync & select their select facebook account. It would ask you to sync contacts, just check that box and you would have what you want.
hope that it helps
well i aready hav an account there....ive got two accounts , the one i created and the facebook-app account....so shall i delete the application account?
i didnt get u??
wat u mean by 2 accounts thats ur created
i mean i already have the facebook-application account and another account which i created in Accounts and sync settings.....so ive got two accounts der....
also i cant seem to sync the calender with fb....
i guess ill delete the application account and see wad happens....
Did you merge the Facebook accounts with your contacts? Should then show the blue Facebook-"f" in their description.
i guess the two diff a/c would be conflicting within each other... try removing it and let me know if u stil hav the prob
yes its done now ...thanx...
but birthdays dont sync with calender only the events do....
and when i call someone the facebook status update dosent show on the dialler...
For the birthday thing: i exported the birthadys from facebook (there's a link, not sure where) and imported them into my google calender.
export your contact from facebook using a desktop system and then update them to your google calender.
the next time google sync from your phone, it would be there

well i flashed to coderom v2x-2b but this rom doesn't includes the default sns accounts integration for facebook and twitter contacts, i already tried moving snsprovider.apk and snsaccount.apk into system/app with root explorer, but the option in the accounts and syc menu aren't there...
maybe because this rom is deodex? can someone help me?
what i did is downloaded Friendcaster for Facebook frm market..
so can sync the contacts with the phone..
and for calender reminders Friendcaster notifies me whn the event is trigered..
so pretty much does the trick for me..
hope that helps
EDIT: Even Facebook for android would also do the trick for contact syncing.. if u are not much concerned for calender events..
i am going to try but... i installed the facebook app and it haves contact sync, i can see my contacts display pictures in the contacts list but i can't see those display pictures when someone calls me.
didn't knwd that... i m using fullscreen caller id.. so didn't knwed about the stock incoming screen..
I just received my Atrix yesterday, and have been playing around with it for a while to see if I like MotoBlur enough to want it in a custom ROM.
I'm on orange stock 2.3.4 and have set up my MotoBlur account and Facebook account. Now the Facebook widget has connected successfully as I can send a status using the home-screen widget. However i cannot find how to link my contacts to there appropriate Facebook profiles to get contact pictures etc.
Am I missing an easy trick here - are they supposed to update automatically? Or do I need to link them?
Thanks,
I believe some contacts does link automatically (when name and email from google match the facebook record). If they are not, you will need to join contacts.
1) go to contacts, select the contact, "menu", Edit contact.
2) "menu", Join
3) select the contact you want to Join
4) "menu", Save
You also need to add Facebook account to your contact "app". And if you find that you have some contacts that are doubled up.. one facebook one not then you just join them as above

How do I 'add Facebook account to my contact "app" I can't find where i'm supposed to add contacts from Facebook in my contacts? I'm running GingerBlur 6.1 by the way.
Thanks for all your help!
Do you live in Dom. Rep? i live here and also got my atrix yesterday.. the facebook widget syncs perfectly over wifi... i still havnt unlocked the phone..
Nope, I'm in the UK. I think it must be a problem with the MotoBlur servers over here maybe? Not entirely sure, but I've tried three different ROMs and still no luck.
I also have the newer Facebook layout which may be affecting it?
It's not such a big deal now as I'm using FriendCaster to sync my contacts.
pull up your contacts press the menu button and go to accounts inside the accounts press menu again and add account ie facebook
you should see one more screen in between these two and add account option is at the bottom of that page
Thanks for all your help - I had already set up my Facebook account successfully as I could set a status using Blur. Was a strange problem, but all of a sudden it's decided to work and all of my contacts have now synced to my phone, and I'm receiving status updates from my contacts now instead of just links etc.
Maybe I just wasn't giving it long enough to sync properly - thought it'd do it within an hour, but I guess not... Thanks again!
Hello guys!
I am a big android fan and my old phone was the LG nexus 4.
I got now the samsung galaxy s3 from my work place so I won't be using
the nexus anymore.
Because it's a phone from work I'll need to configure two emails:
work email and my gmail.
In the nexus I had only one email address (gmail) and everything was synchronized to there ...
contacts, google play and much more.
I want in the new galaxy s3 devise to have the gmail account as primary but to configure also the work email:
to have contacts from gmail and the work contacts all together under my phone contacts
and to have seperation .. if I add a contact I want it to be synced only to my gmail contacts for instance.
so on the one hand, I want to have both mails and functionality on the same phone
but on the other hand a way that I can seperate between the two.
Thanks alot you guys!
It should have another E-Mail app installed.
You can use this or download another E-Mail app if you don't like the stock app.
Then you should be able to configure your work mail in this app, shouldn't be very hard.
I don't think you can also synchronize your work contacts. Maybe if you use Exchange, I'm not sure.
But you could just add your work contacts to your Gmail contacts and add them to a Work contact group.

thanks for the quick response,
any mail app recommended?
Also,
How do I add my work contacts to my gmail contacts without doing so one by one?
(is there some kind of export?)
thanks!
I'm on a custom ROM and using the stock Android mail app, but K-9 Mail is very good mail app.
I think, you should be able to import your work contacts.
However, I don't exactly know how you would do that. But I'm sure, you'll find an answer with Google.
thanks alot m8
I will try and update
