Hi,
I have a galaxy note with gingerbread, rocket rom (I don't understand much about roms, if necessary I can upload a screenshot of the "about" section).
I use the built in contacts app, and sync it with my gmail contacts, facebook contacts, and linkedin contacts.
I noticed that on the linkedin account, only the first 70 contacts out of 98 sync with the phone. Meaning that on the computer, I have 98 contacts on the linkedin web site, but on the phone I only see the first 70 (alphabetically), and the rest are simply missing. I have some of these contacts also on gmail and facebook, so I have the contacts on the phone, but it's like they don't have a linkedin account as well.
Tried removing the linkedin account, restarting the phone, and adding the account back but nothing changed.
Why does this happen?
Thanks!

I tried to sync my Facebook contacts through Motoblur but when I compared the facebook contacts on my phone to my facebook contacts in my FB account, there were some people didn't get sync'd to my phone... I've tried to delete the Facebook Motoblur account and add it again, but still the same people are not sync'd....
Any help???
ah I think I figure it out... the name in my phone contact has to be spelled the same as the name in my Facebook contact list. For example, one of my friends got married so she changed her last name on Facebook, but I still have her maiden name in my address book. The phone won't sync her Facebook to my phone so I can't even do an manual link... I can from the Captivate and I believe I was still able to do a manual link even if names are not exactly the same.... oh well I still like my Atrix over Captivate anyday.
Hi all,
Just some strange behaviour in regards to my calendar. I added a bunch of entries in my Google Calendar, which synced fine to my phone. But I deleted all entries in Google, did a number of manual syncs and phone reboots, but the entries are still remaining in the phone calendar. They are completely gone in Google Calendar.
Any ideas?
Well I went through and deleted all the data from anything Calendar related which removed everything, now it's syncing with Google. However, it doesn't show my "Other Calendars". I have simple calendar widget which displays my other calendars in the options, but the stock calendar doesn't show them at all.
Edit: OK it looks like an issue with Facebook birthdays export. Just created a new calendar, exported the Facebook birthdays into this and all is good. Not surprised Google and Facebook aren't playing nicely!
I have this same problem, and I want to delete 'the data from anything calendar related'.
How do I do this?
Where is the calendar data stored?
Just purchased a Streak running Android 2.3.3. I set up my gmail account on phone and everything looked ok. Mail and calendar appear to sync fine but only a few contacts synced. When I open Settings/Accts & Sync, the gmail account shows and sync is turned on.But if I open Contacts/menu/Accounts, gmail does not appear and if I try to add an account, gmail is not present as an option. How do I get the google contacts to sync?
If I remember right you have to go into your Google Contacts on a web browser and move all your contacts into your My Contacts area.
problem solved
I discovered the problem. I had used Root Uninstaller to freeze the Google Sync application at the time I was trying to reduce the apps I didn't think I would need. Now everything in sync. Thanks
Just setup ICS on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and I've downloaded the Facebook app from the Play store. However, once installed, it never asked me as to which contacts I wanted to Sync. Within the app, I can't find the option anywhere either.
I un-installed the app and re-installed it and still no sign of any prompting to sync all contacts.
So as it stands, I've got all contacts sync'd from MS Exchange, Gmail, LinkedIn but no way will the Facebook contacts sync. It all worked perfectly on Gingerbread.

I believe it's broken on the FB side of things - I'm using a custom rom and up until the second last version, it used a 'hack' to sync up FB contacts but it's since removed that and putting it in FB's hands.
You could try using FriendCaster instead, it's an FB replacement app that seems to have working contacts sync.
Device: GT-I9300
Android: 4.1.2 I9300DXELK1
Exchange: 2007
I'm having trouble syncing contacts, but calendar and email works fine. I have two other exchange accounts installed, and one of them is syncing calendar and the other one just email.
I have tried to remove all Exchange accounts on the phone, and re-installed first he main account witch won't sync contacts. At this point it works just fine. But after a while, it stops.
I have a bunch of other apps that access the contact list in case it can have anything to to with the problem:
I use Viber, Skype, WhatsApp, Facebook Cantact Sync from WeedNET, and several of the contacts are combined in the phone.
Can anyone help?
