In build 34b, no text appear in Facebook and Friendcast apps (and in mobile facebook web page), only profile photos, images posted and like and coments icons.
How I can fix it?
uninstall and re-install?

Since yesterday I have not been able to see the Facebook pictures from my contacts when I open text messages from them yet their are all there in the People App. If I open my messages in the default application I can only see my Facebook photo and everything else is blank, the same happens in Handcent although that never shows my photo anyway (by design).
Can anyone think of what could have caused this?
Cheers.
Just to say that this issue is now resolved although the cause is still unknown. To fix it all I did was to unlink and re-link the facebook associations in the People app.
So is anyone here using both facebook contacts (with phonenumbers ofcourse) and GO Sms? I love Go SMS, in my opinion it beats ChompSMS (which has the same problem) and HandCent (Which doesnt have the problem, but it looks like crap). But the problem is that it simply cant show facebook contacts.. When composing an sms it won't show anyone who is a facebook contact and where as in the standard messaging app i can see the name and photo of a contact who sent me an sms, in Go SMS it just shows the phone number.
Is there anything that can be done or is it entirely up to the Go SMS developer? 90% of my contacts are just facebook people, i can't be arsed to manually create them all as normal contacts
Thanks,
No one can help?
Just found this thread via Google, I can't believe how much time I've wasted messing around with Google Contacts/FB Sync for this issue.
My suggestion is file a bug report on GoSMS and hope the devs can fix it. It shouldn't even be that difficult - just a specific case for handling Facebook contacts. They've demonstrated they're willing to deal with FB-specific issues as shown by their new 'import FB photo' feature.
Do let me know if you figure out a workaround? Like you, I know Handcent does it fine, but it looks like arse.

You have to have a rooted phone.
Rebuild the contact database or install a custom rom with that feature installed.
Will try to search some links for you and update the post

So strange problem, I'm using the HTC contact book and it will only show photos from FB, not google or anything else. On the other hand Handcent will show anything other than FB pictures so it's impossible to get both to work at the same time.
I'm running KingCobra3D-ICS, I didn't have this problem in GB.
I have the exact same issue. With all the ICS based ROM's many of the photo icons show. Furthermore it is with the default HTC contact book and also with "exDialer & Contacts" in the Google Play as well.
Hope someone sees this post and can recommend a fix.

If I use exDialer & Contacts, I'm fine since it uses the same images as Handcent. It's just if I want to use the stock contact app.
install friendcaster and sync pics register it with/in your contacts
log out/uninstall facebook, its fuggling it up
Fix is here

I'm having a small issue with Facebook on Android. However, I think it's an issue with Android itself, not the app. When I get an email from Facebook, and I click the link, my browser opens and takes to the Facebook page and asks me to log in. Why doesn't it open the link using my Facebook app? It doesn't even ask me which app to use, browser or Facebook (eg. if I have two different gallery apps, and I want to view a picture, it asks me which gallery app to use, and lets me set one as default at the same time). Is there any way to make Facebook links open the Facebook app, instead of launching the browser (or to have it ask me like it does with other apps)? The whole point of the Facebook app is so I don't need to use the browser to view Facebook.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm looking for a solution for this too, it's really annoying! but I've had no luck so far....
Hey, got a question!
I installed the CM10.1 JB4.2 for my Evo V 4G, but would like to know if there is a way to remove the Emails from the contacts list, and keep it just the Name of the Contact / Phone Number, like in ICS/Older versions. I don't see a setting for that in the Contacts app. Just related to sorting. I can only see it hidden if I access through the Dialer and then to the built in Contact tab.
I don't want to delete the emails, just hide them in the main Contact App.
Thanks!
