Hi All,
does anyone know if you can sync facebook birthday to the galaxy note stock calendar?
i know that you can setup the facebook birthday on the google calendar but the galaxy note calendar doesnt seem to sync with the facebook birthdays..
it only shows the original google calendar events even though google calendar shows the normal events plus fb birthdays too...
anyone experience this issue or there is a work around it ?
cheers

I signed in to the stock Social Hub with my FB account and somewhere in the settings of SH you can choose to sync FB agenda items.
Check this out this worked for me

Hi I just received my galaxy, so possible a NOOB problem.
The problem is that I have a google calendar, and on my phone it sees both the appointments I have done on the phone and the google appointments - so this is fine.
If I make a appointment via a computer at the net on the google calendar, then it will show up on the phone calendar - this is fine.
BUT if I make an appointment on the phone - it will not show up on the google calendar on the net.
It seems like the phone uses "My Calendar" which is not synced with the google calendar - so have I missed a setting somewhere?
Thanks
When you did the calender mark did you choose google calender and not the phone calender?? take a close look so u have choose that before apply the appointment/mark in the cal. when you set the day/clock under that you can choose what calender to use....I missed that too...
Ok thanks - found the setting.
Is it possible to change the behaviour, so that when you make an appointment on the phone it is by default using the google calendar and not the phone calendar?
I dont think you can set it as default..not sure. With some app maybe? I just have my Galaxy for 4 days so everything is new
Thanks, compared to me you are very experienced (had mine for 1 day)
I would also be interested in a way to change the default.
Additionally I'd like to have the automatically created birthday events appear in one of my Google calendars, not in the phone calendar. Has anybody an idea on how to do that?
It says "with Google" on the phone, if I'm selling my soul to Google, at least I'd like to do it completely and thoroughly.
I'm syncing with my Yahoo Calendars, my 2 Gmail account Calendars
also contact from those 3 accounts too, and IM from MSN, google, yahoo, tweeter, facebook
this phone is Amazing! at keeping everything in sync
just make sure on the account page your accounts are all with the Green sync circle
when i press "new" in calender it always makes in "my calender" and I want it in "gmail" calender. because thats the one who sync. I want it to be that by default. how can I make gmail calender default? I cant find it in settings.
you cant.
annoying i know, took me a few days to figure out why my calendar wasnt syncing online
there might be another calendar app that does this, i have no idea why the default android calendar made by google doesnt sync with google, crazy.
Yeah , my tought too. crazy. I guess with a pure android os it will be like that. how is it on desire?
Hi all,
I to was suffering from this problem and it was driving me nuts and then i discovered if you go into settings in the Calender you will see
All Calenders
My Calender
your name @googlemail.com or gmail.com
Weather
Untick the All Calenders and My Calender and just have a tick by your Google address Calender and that's it done in settings you can also untick the Weather if you don't want that showing in your Calender either.
Unfortunately that's not quite the solution i was hoping for as although it now only shows the Google Calender you need to remember each time you are making an entry to change the Calender from My Calender to your Google Calender which really isn't that bad or hard just a couple of extra ticks is all.
After this you will only have your Google Calender showing on your Galaxy and it will all sync fine with Google Calender, hope that solves the problem for you.

I am using smoothCalendar on my homescreen, but is it possible to show up my facebook calendar there? In sense I can, because it implements facebook calendar as a calendar to my phone. But in CM, how do I do this? Anyone know an app to do that?

For birthdays im not sure because the last time I tried doing this facebook would not sync its birthdays with google calendar, only events. But for events and what not you can sync your facebook calendar through your gmail/google account online and then by syncing your google account to smooth calendar. That avoids having to use another app.
If you want to sync your fb birthdays calender with google calender . To work with Smooth Calander.. Use "ebobirthday" found in market..
I believe Gemini calendar will do this as well
Thanks folks. I found out that most easier way is; importing facebook birthday iCal URL to my google calendar. No need any extra application that way. Thanks @CallMeAria.
Sort like idea of get rid of application that way have more space.
Thanks CallMeAria.

When I installed facebook, it asked me that Galaxy wants to access FB which I confirmed.
However in Note 4 - under accounts - facebook account there would be option for syncing facebook calendar and gallery with the device. In Note 5 under facebook account it just says sync contacts....where is the calendar sync option gone????
Any help???

I had the same problem but found a solution. In the Play Store I found an app called Facebook Calender Sync and this fixed it.
Hi,
I've installed Facebook app on my new Galaxy Tab S2. Inside account's settings I can see only Contacts to sync (unlike on Note 4 where I have calendar and photos to sync), but syncing doesn't work. When I manually sync it ends immediatly, but no facebook contacts are visible.
Does anyone have similar issues?
