So I recently upgraded to the SGS 2 from an Infuse...and when I set up Facebook sync on that phone I was able to select whether I wanted to add ALL facebook friends, or just the ones that were already in my contacts... With the SGS 2 I wasn't given that option, so now I have like 300 extra people in my Contacts list that I will never call, and a good number of them don't even have phone numbers... So is there a way to filter which friends are synced?
Same problem here....

Go to contacts... then menu button...then more button..then select display options
in the pop screen which comes up...tick the box showing ..only contacts with phone numbers...
click done...
now if you go back to contact listings..it will only show contact with phone numbers...including...facebook/gmail/yahoo etc sync ones
edit : Ok not exactly what you wanted, but i dont see anyother way

Thanks, that's good to know. Problem is, that hides any "real" contacts that don't have phone numbers and shows ANY Facebook friend, so long as they have a number.

I am experiencing the exact same problem. I synced all my accounts yesterday and it was working great for about 3 hours and then it tells me "sync is experiencing problems right now" What is happening? Is there a fix for this?
Hi;
Since yesterday I keep getting notification, saying that it can't synchronize with Facebook service. It asks for making another authorization. When I click on it Facebook app says that "Sony Ericsson Xperia application already has permissions. Click ok to continue". After I press it, Facebook app closes... and that's it. 1 minute later I get the same notification about synch issue. I've already tried to reset Facebook app, logout and login, changing synch settings but with no effect.
Also I'd like to add that actually I have no issues with contacts, photos, timescape or callendar synch with FB. Everything works just fine.
I'm running on 2.3.3 stock ROM and few days ago I made FB app update.
No big deal afterall, still help would be appreciated

Same problem with wolfbreak Rom after updating Facebook
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I just deleted the facebook accounts from ' accounts and synchronisation ' in the settings menu. After that is stopped bugging me.
Damn, I didn't expect so many folks to have the same problem. I assume it must be some kind of problem with FB service then.
And it's really annoying to see blue icon on your notification bar every time you unlock your phone!
I have a diff FB sync issue. I tell it to sync only with friends in my contact list, but it just syncs all my FB Friends and adds them into my contacts. (Which is the same as if I say "Sync All")
Yahoooooo, happy to know I'm not the only one....
Damn it, sad to know that so many people are having the same issue...
Oh well, hopefully it has something to do with a possible FB app update, to make it look like the web FB in mobile view, since the Iphone has got it already...
got the same problem, did someone found a solution? its really annoying
i'm on wolfbreak with doomkernel
Aparently its widespread issue with all xperia models, theres a growing topic about it in the SE facebook page
Its very annoying, my fone is harrasing me

I fixed it by going to facebook(browser), privacy settings, apps, removed my x10 from the list
Then from the phone in accounts and sync i removed the main facebook accounts(fix gets removed atomatically) and adding my account again
Just got the authorize message twice and after that i havent seen it again since yesterday

Apparently the problem solved itself. No notification today. The phone works fine.
^^ yep, it seems authorization issue got solved globally.
Wait...mine is still doing it. Mine isnt fixed.......how do i fix it?
mine (netherlands) also is not fixed, did not get any update also
I dont know why but suddenly anything facebook related is not working well

It's not issues of fb spp. Its issue of fb inside xperia2.
Solution :Make a backup and factory reset your phone. Or wipe your data via xrecovery

Will this really help? Or is just a suggestion?

I just wanted to know if other users were having problems receiving facebook notifications on the S2, I have tried multiple Roms to no avail. All my facebook settings are correct and I receive notifications to my IOS devices and blackberry but no to my S2.
Any help appreciated
Best solutions are on stock ROM. Check Background sync is on.. In Facebook Application.. Notifications ticked.. Refresh interval has values.. Notification types selected..

As the title says. How to ad facebook contact to my phone??
Im using a Samsung Galaxy S2.
I have set up facebook, so it sync, under control option. "Facebook contacts"
Any suggestion?
That are a few apps the force it. Your issue is due to Google removing the native Android coding to sync Facebook without the app.
I am not sure of the apps names as I don't sync fb to my phone

Thx for respons!
hmmm... too bad. I have been looking for a app, that could solve the problem, but with no luck :/
Anyone else that had figured this out ?
It should be mentioned that I'm running on a custom rom, ICS 4.04
For me, it works to create a contact as a google contact, then turn on Facebook sync under settings.
Cool will try that out, and see if it works!
grrr .. doesn't work at all
The default Facebook sync works for me, but the pictures are low res and blurry. I'm on ICS 4.0.4 too. The best app for Facebook sync is HaxSync. Pictures are nice and clear and it automatically selects the best resolution picture from someone's profile pictures album. Also syncs statuses and other stuff but I don't care for that.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync
Note: the app only works on ICS, not GB.

AND there was an AND.
The app doesn't get the mobile numbers :/
This may be the fix
I just installed cm10 so it is N/A for my rom, but this may be the fix for facebook not syncing contacts and an explanation how it fixes it in detail with flashable zip files at the bottom

maybe a dev could take a look at it and possible fix the issue from inside the roms
Hey guys, I'm stuck in a slight bug on my Xperia U. Its actualy my GF's phone but its up to me to solve the issue.
When we use the facebook messenger app, we can't see any contacts online (the green dot) just a few with the cellphone icon, though on the PC we can clearly see many contacts online (with the green dot).
Its the latest version of both facebook app and facebook messenger app and android 2.3.7 stock.
Is the any kind of configuration we are forgetting? or is it a bug? there is any way around it?
Thanks for the attention.
