[Q] Contacts and facebook - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

On my previous galaxy s+ , I had connected my facebook contacts and their facebook photos with the contacts I had on the phone. So next to each contact there was a photo from facebook. How can I do this on sxs??? Thanks in advance.

You have to sync your contacts with facebook.. to do that do the following:
1.) In Facebook App go to Settings and at the bottom you can choose to sync with all facebook friends, existing contacts or none, choose existing contacts.
2.) Now you have to go to Settings > Account & Syncronization and create a new Facebook in Xperia Account. Now put on Auto-Sync and go into the Facebook inside Xperia account, there you have to tick the boxes away you don't want to use.

Nope. Nothing. There aren't any photos next to my contacts. Have you done it?

[Q] Seprerate Facebook Contact list

It would be pretty great if someone developed an app or something so you can have all your facebook contacts seperate from your personal contacts,
or if it was an option under the contacts menu
Just a thought...
You do not need an app for this. The phone already does this. Just sync your facebook and then under contacts you go in to the options and select "get friends" choose facebook and select all those you want to transfer to your contacts list. You then can put them in their own group or join them with their phone number and google account.
so this will not interfere with my personal contact list at all?
i DO NOT want facebook and personal contacts together.
You will have to sync your FB contacts, tell your phone to not show them in the contacts via Contats>Menu>Display Options.
Then when you want to only look at your Facebook contacts, from the Contacts app, click group, scroll down to "All Facebook Contacts."
It doesn't really accomplish anything, other than making you look in two places for information.
You also could use a Facebook Live Folder on your Home Screen if you want.
I have mine set so my contacts store their Gmail and Facebook on their contact profile. I can then just go to contacts and pick a person. Then I can click on updates in the right corner and it displays Facebook posts from my contacts. Its pretty nice.

[Q] Sync FB Contacts With Whatsapp

Hi
I have all my facebook contacts sync'ed to my device (with MiniCM7Pro V21) but my fb contacts with numbers doesn't show on Whatsapp.
I have to manually make new contacts on the phone so that Whatsapp can see them.
Is there a way that Whatsapp can 'see' my fb contacts?
Anyone with some thoughts?

Try this,
goto settings > account and sync > whatsapp > (menu) > remove account ( This will NOT remove anything of you WhatsApp' data, just refresh them)
then add WhatsApp account again
now launch WhatsApp and wait to until the contacts are refreshed.
Reply if worked
( I felt that WhatsApp has some issue with android's FB contact sync)

Twitter won't sync contacts

Hi. I have a problem with my new Galaxy S3.
Once I login into Twitter, it doesn't add twitter contacts to my contact list. And in 'Settings > Accounts and Sync > Twitter' (sorry, my mobile is in spanish) it only appears to be synchronize data, not contacts.
Twitter doesn't appear neither in 'Contacts > Accounts'.
What should I do?
Thanks
Contact sync was deleted in the lasts updates, compatibility, I guess
So how do we add Twitter contacts to the address book now? Is there a 3rd party app that does it?

[Q] Removing Contacts from Gmail?

Whenever I configure my Google account on any new phone all the contacts are automatically copied from Gmail contacts to device phonebook.
These contacts are synced between my old phones and Gmail and are with Google servers.
I can delete all contacts from Gmail app in order to stop this auto contacts sync.
My question here is if I do so will it delete all contacts from device as well. I have unchecked auto sync-up data option in contacts settings. And how
to stop this contacts sync between phone and Gmail.
I back up contacts as svf and export to SD card, and I don’t want my contacts to on Google servers.

If you have disabled the auto-sync (Settings > Google account > Uncheck Contacts) contacts won't be synchronized but you can do what you want on Google servers it will never modify the phone data.
FYI if sync is ON and if you delete a contact on Google servers (from the webpage) it will be deleted on your device too.

When I was configuring my new devie I copied all my contacts using a vcf file which I got from my previous device, but later when auto-sync
happened, there were multiple contacts for same name.
Here I would like to know if I delete all contacts from Google server (logging in through webpage) and doing a sync, will it delete those contact as
well created by copying from vcf. I mean those contacts did not came from my Google account so that have nothing to do with Google sync.

No. It will only remove the contacts mentioned on Google servers.
