Facebook contacts not syncing - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

I'm using Pac-Man 1214 ROM for my HTC Vivid and the contacts from Facebook don't seem to be syncing into my phone. It will run through the process but they won't show up. I've checked the setting to make sure it shows them but that didnt help.

I could have sworn mine did. Try reflashing the ROM if not then you can always install a contacts app that syncs with Facebook

Damn you're quick at answer my questions. Thank you for that, and I'll probably just get a new contacts app.

HaxSync in the play store always worked for me.

I believe they google took facebook sync out of aosp...so I don't think any jb Rom will have it unless they've added the correct modifications to the contacts app...could be wrong

I noticed as soon as I installed Facebook. But all it really did for me was sync a photo with the contacts, oh well.

Know of any apps that transfer contacts from android to ios?

So I'm thinking of picking up an iPhone 4 from a friend to play with, but don't want to hand key all my contacts. Does anyone know if there's an app or method to transfer contacts from an android phone to an iPhone?

I linked mine from my gmail
I guess you can use Google Contacts?

Google contacts does the job perfectly. In itunes head to info and select google contacts and from there it will sync.
Sweet, easier than I expected haha. Thanks

My bionic will not sync with the facebook app and give my contacts pictures. Does anyone have a possible solution? Other then that, great phone so far!

SyncMyPix. Free on the market.
Awesome thanks. Any idea why fb won't connect with contacts on its own?

The newest FB update has been getting pretty terrible responses from users on many different models of phone. Perhaps its broken in the app and will get debugged in the next update. Anybody else know anything?

Use the Facebook Account in Blur. It added all my pics/contacts after I signed in to it.

Thats odd...cause on my phone it shows that all my contacts that are linked to facebook have their pictures automatically linked to their contact info. I didn't do anything special.

My Facebook contact pictures weren't syncing or would only sync some pictures. To fix this i went to Settings > Battery & data manager > Data delivery > social applications > and check "Sync over Wi-Fi only" then connect to WiFi and your contacts should re-sync.
Is there an option anywhere to select which contacts to sync if you only use Blur's FB interface?
All my contacts and pics are linked with facebook fine, just like my last phone

How? I can't find the version where it gives me the option to sync

How do I get Facebook contacts to sync with my existing contacts though so I don't have seperate contacts from Facebook and existing
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
Use Friendcaster.
1) It's better, and more stable than the official FB app.
2) It sync pics just fine.
My 2 cents...
Free or paid version?

Up to you man, I use the paid. To be honest, I'm not sure of the differences between the two. I just know I used the free one (loved it) and instantly supported the developer. However, it's not a one-man show anymore, as it was bought by OneLouderApps (TweetCaster) - I personally think it's more stable now...
Totally love friendcaster one thing though it synced my Facebook contacts to my phone contacts but it doesn't link them, so I have a contact for john doe and under it is my Facebook contact for the same john doe?

It's not perfect on the sync, but it's passable. I have about 100 contacts, and it misses about 10 of them - usually due to their FB name not matching how I have them stored. Takes me a few mins, but I just manually join them.

This hasn't happened to me at all. I'm currently on HoliRaider, are these contact pictures sync'd to google/facebook or saved in your phone?
Facebook mostly. Well twitter, Google...every sync service I log into and contacts are linked to
Sent from my HTC Raider X710e using Tapatalk
I haven't seen this issue either. I have them synced through FB & Google.

Hmmm wonder if its because my contacts aren't named exactly as the account links for example Cameron on fb but in my contacts saved as Cam

Could be. Do they show as separate contacts in the people app? You may have to link them together.
Sent from my HTC Raider X710e using XDA App
They're all linked. Maybe text reads from sim card? Its usually fine after a reboot but then mysteriously at some point back to no pic. Another thing I noticed is the name also changes to just first name while the pic isn't there

This happened on my Vivid the day I got it and one more time after that. It hasn't happened since. In each occurrence, a restart resolved the issue, but it was very annoying. I assumed it was a bug with HTC's messaging app, but didn't want to try another one, as I'm content with HTC's offering.
So I found that for some reason message app sometimes uses the sim contact for contact. Any way to fix that other than deleting it from my sim?

I have the fix guys! Mine is working, here is what you do:
- Set up the Google voice app first. (Make sure to chose Google as your voice mail option in the setup.)
- Next,go to settings on your phone.
- Go to call forwarding
- Leave the first option alone
- Change the bottom three options to your Google voice mail number.
I don't know if it will fix SMS or talk but voicemail does work after you change the settings. I don't use sms or talk.

Deleting contacts

Hi, I'm running the virtuous Inquisition rom. I was wondering if there was a way to delete more than one contact at a time?
