I really like the Facebook sync on Samsung, that it allows you to sync contacts and calender with your phone. However on Cyanogen you can only have the Facebook for Android app which only allows you to sync contacts.
Can I install the SNS features from a Samsung rom to Cyanogen Mod? Or has someone found a workaround, maybe with Google Calender?
Thanks in advance!
You cannot use Samsung apps on CM7. they have a different file system and they will not work.
you will need to find something else.
I dont use Facebook... so i cant help you

Hi all
I am running stock Samsung Froyo 2.2.1 and somehow, SNS status of my contacts stopped working. It does not show if I create a shortcut on desktop, hovewer it shows in the Dialer app. I tried to re-join facebook and phone contacts, re-enable facebook sync with the samsung app and also with facebook app, nothing helping. The only thing not tried is removing the Facebook sync account and add it again. Any suggestions?
that wont help either im having the same problem i guess its messed up but i tried removing the account & adding it again still did nothing hope this answers ur question
damn... i expect you did not try to do hard reset too
nope didnt try that it seems like there fixing it but who knows how long that will last lol y did u try a hard reset??
Nah... I am saving that for real issues
I am having the same issue. The get friends screen simply says "No SNS accounts". This is a samsung galaxy s. I have a facebook account setup... On Android 2.1 I used to be able to select who to sync. I am now on 2.2.1

I had heard Facebook and Google having a falling out and Google disabling sync but I thought it would only affect official 2.3 firmwares. Might be a corporate rather than a phone issue

I've got my g-Tablet set up just about the way I want it. I like the stock ROM. I have Market working.
My problem is that I don't have any use for the stock Calendar or Contacts apps. I'd like to get the proper Google ones installed without messing up anything else. Some of the replacement ROMs do a good job of this (Google apps run and connect and sync properly to my Google account), so I know it must be possible.
I did try the cyanogenmod update file, but doing this caused several problems and I had to restore from a backup. These problems included causing Market to crash any time it was run as well as Contact and Calendar apps that wouldn't connect or sync to my Google account.
Is there anyone who can walk me through the process of adding a single Google app such as Calendar or Contacts and get it up and connected to my Google account?

I'd be interested in figuring out what this means.
I want the real Google calendar as well.

I finally figured out that "Tom" possibly means "ROM."
So, can anyone point those of us who are interested in adding just Google's Calendar or Contacts apps, rather than a replacement ROM or all-in-one "Google Apps" add-on, in the right direction?
hi everybody, I don't know if this has been alredy asked, but I couldn't find it...
I had the android 2.3.4 on my galaxy mini... I've just got installed the CyanogenMod 7.2 RC1...
Well the thing is, this rom has a different contacts app...
In my 2.3.4, my stock contacts app, had the option no syncronize with facebook, without having the facebook for android app installed... This way I had all the pictures, the phone numbers, even the last post on the wall of ever one of my facebook friends right below the picture...
All this things I don't have it in this new contacts app on the rom...
Can anyone help me to get the stock contacts apps from de 2.3.4, or at least, one that have the option to sync with facebook...
thanks in advance...
Just install Facebook for Android and let the sync begins...

So I installed the Google Play edition ROM, from bigxie. And since I can't post in that forum with less than 10 posts, I have to ask here.
I'm unable to get my Facebook contacts to sync into my phone. I've tried removing the account, and even reinstalling Facebook. I was wondering if anyone else was having this issue.

use haxsync
I'd kinda like to get the phone working the way it's supposed to work rather than downloading an app for it.
Facebooks contacts, at least for me, have never synced with vanilla android. Only way is to use a third party app.

As notown said above, you have to use an asp to sync contacts. Haxsync is my app of choice
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
FB & Google haven't played well together (on purpose) since either 2.3 or 4. Haxsync works perfectly to get around the contact sync issue.
So yeah, you're not "using an app to get the phone to work correctly", you're using an app to fix Facebook being a bunch of jackasses. It's "working correctly" by not syncing in the first place.
Oh alright. I just figured since they synced in Sense they would sync without it.
I have an ATT Active running 4.4.2 and I uninstalled my stock calendar thinking I would stop the duplicate notifications. Unfortunately I learned that now my google calendar won't open and I can't sync it. I used TI backup to uninstall and then I restored calendar storage but I can't find my calendar apk to restore (don't know what happened to it). I have searched and downloaded Splanner apk and calendar provider apk's but I can't get the calendar's to open. I'm guessing the apk's I am finding aren't compatible with my phone? Can someone please help me and let me know what I need to reinstall just to get google calendar up and running so it can sync? I really depend on it for work and I'm struggling to keep track of my schedule without it.
Anyone? Really could use some help.

What about the Google Calendar app? I always install Google Calendar from the Play Store, and then use TiBu to uninstall the stock calendar app, I've never had any trouble doing this on several devices
Thank you for the reply. I installed the Google calendar but it won't open and I'll get calendar error messages at random while using the phone. I must have unistalled something else that doesn't allow Google calendar to work. Do you have any suggestions on what I should look for?
Little help please. I'm still stuck with no working calendar.
standalone calendar that works?
Somewhat off topic but is at least a basic calender that might work, but may not sync with google calendar.
Calender is one of the things that is not well defined as to what you need for it to work. I'm attempting to get some basic calender functionality without installing gapps framework. I have a TB Cyanogenmod account that may allow Android or Google Calender to work without a Google account?
After trying several calendar apps at f-droid without success, Jorte Calendar seems to work good as a standalone app for a sans gapps system.
Thanks for the reply. Is this calendar my last option? Is there no way, without wiping my phone and starting from scratch, to replace whatever apk's are missing? I would really like to just install what is missing and continue using the phone. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You should be able to get calendar working by replacing the apk's you deleted, we just need to know what apk's you deleted so we can send you the replacements.
Thanks for the quick response. As far as I can tell the apk that I am missing is the calendar apk. Is there a way to compare the apk's that I have compared to what I should have? Thanks again.

Google Calender 5.0 .apk:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxnEA1OTspCUTWRJQ2lIRkpIaEE/view?usp=sharing
Thanks for the apk. Unfortunately I keep having the same problem as before when I downloaded Google calendar. When I try to open calendar I get "Unfortunately calendar has stopped" and I also get the same error message for Exchange services simultaneously. Does this give any clues as to what might be missing?
I had similar issue as well when I was uninstalling stuff. After a couple months of not having a properly functioning calender I tried out Today Calender Pro when it was on sale. It works great. Might be worth a shot.

You could try opening the app details and deleting it's data. That may fix Exchange services at least, but didn't fix google calendar for me. I'm in the same boat as you, just not dependent on syncing with google.
If you have a good recovery option, you can make a backup and try flashing gapps again:
