Use Friendcaster. It's a much better facebook app. You actually get notifications and contacts sync without issue.

Agreed 100%. Friendcaster is the best fb app out right now hands down

I used to use friendcaster but then... lol jk not making an arrow in the knee joke but anyway i stopped using friendcaster when the facebook app actually got good
Keep in mind that any variance in the name between FB and your contacts may require you to 'join' the two via Edit in the Contacts menu.
+1 for Friendcaster too.

I really like the stock samsung email app. The only thing keeping me from using cm7 is that. I know k9 mail but that seems to kill.my battery and isn't true "push" email.
What are my options. Would the email apk from unnamed work on cm7? I doubt it.

Probably should have posted in general. Sorry.

there is a stock email client (not gmail) in cm7.1, which works well with my exchange email. it can do imap/pop3 email as well.
Yeah I'm totally aware of the other email app but u cannot set it to push. Only check for mail in different intervals

push works, if you mean the same app - which is the one under cm7.1

"enhanced email" in the market is pretty nice esp if you like stock. its enhanced stock. does push.
Well I figured out how to push gmail with the stock email app.
Add new account
Type username an password
Click manual setup
Click exchange
Username will be /username. Leave the slash
Put m.Google.com instead of gmail.com
Viola. Perfect working push gmail with the stock app.

So are you using exchange? I have had this problem as well with the stock email app. I do not use exchange. I have 2 email accounts one of which is Gmail and another that is Road Runner that forwards to my Gmail account. The Gmail app receives push email perfectly but the stock email app waits for its assigned frequency to check for mail.
Will your way of setting up the account work for me?
Thanks!

I am using 5 gmail accounts on the stock email app using the method I posted above for push mail. Yes it should work, not sure how to do your RR email but if u have that forwarded to a gmail theN your all set

LOL, working like a champ! I was trying to copy your instructions and paste them to a thread I had started over in the captivate thread about this issue 6 + months ago to help anyone out that may stumble across it in a search. Needless to say I failed miserably!

Hey Gus the default app just sucks when it comes to syncing the contact pictures, is there any good alternative app for syncing the contact pictures??

thnx mate let me try
friendcaster does much better job than stock. Other than that, install full screen caller" and load pics from facebook.
Hey

I am using Friendcaster because it's not running in background.
m.facebook.com
Friendcaster Pro

Browser and m.facebook.com as someone said earlier.
Fast, does nto run in the background.

Thanks for letting me know abut that. I didn't know you could pull Facebook notifications. Haven't used plume in ages.

I use the official Facebook app, I've never had any problems with it at all.
I did try FriendCaster but it wouldn't post my statuses or comments so now I just use it for pop up notifications.

The Facebook app is running in background when you quit it. Like a bloatware
using official facebook app, no problem so far
but main disadvantage is can't download picture ==
so use friendcaster if want to download
and official facebook app can upload more than 1 picture, that the best feature
I know from messing around with the htc evo 4g lte it has the ability to sync contact from twitter.
I have since upgraded to the Galaxy SIII and want to know what app would provide similar twitter integration
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
When Twitter is first downloaded and opened up it should come up with an option to sync contacts once you've signed in.
If not, try reinstalling it again.

No like in my contacts app I can link Facebook profiles etc. But twitter isn't an option.
On the htc you can link your peep(or whatever their twitter app is) to your contacts.

No need to do it in contacts, by installing Twitter you can sync your contacts from Twitter INTO the contacts app

Is there really a difference between these two apps? I've always been curious about it.

I believe facebook messenger is purely the messaging part of facebook. You can send messages and all, but you can't access your news feed for example. But facebook app contains everything
