Install Sync.me, it's free and uses fullscreen HD pictures straight from facebook.
I can't post links yet, but search Sync.me in the Play Store and you will find it.

If you are trying to sync facebook contacts, enable "Xperia with facebook". Your contact pics will be HD quality

Just choose the contact picture again and it will go back to the large contact photo. This used to be an issue pre ics but for some reason it's present in Sony roms.

Best Facebook Sync

What's the best way to have facebook sync? A custom ROM or something like HaxSync?
I tried flashing "flavours" from Matthew Huie (super_paws around there) that incorporates the "hidden" Facebook Sync but I didn't achieve anything (no contacts were sync'd, I don't know why, but gah... ).
I used for a while an app called SyncMyPix, only good for syncing contact photos (not rly good, tbh... the images were pixelated and sometimes not very useful).
So, last week I installed HaxSync that IS rly a beast: contact (both photos and status) infos are synced in a veeeeeeeery good manner and it does everything automatically. I think that with a few bucks you get a goooood app for the stock ROM. (it works on any rom ofc, but others may have a sync option enabled yet...)
my 2 cents
Where do you find hack sync? I've never heard of it. But I want to check if out.

Aside from the inability to link an account like we used to be able to do with the official FB app..

Can you disable status update sync with haxsync? Also, does it try to sync ALL of your fb friends?.. personally, I'm just looking for a nice hi re contact photo solution.

For HaxSync, how do you guys get the contacts to merge because some people I didnt have their last name in and it came in as a separate contact. But now I added the last name and now i have one with the number and another one with the fb status/pic

Select first contact, edit, menu, join, select contact u want to join with... or if u want to actually merge into one, you can do it thru Gmail (select contacts from the left side), or Google.com/contacts

Problem with posting pictures onto Facebook

How come pictures that I upload to FB with my XZ all become horizontal? Anyone has the same problem or knows what have I done wrong. This never happened to my previous iphone or LG 4X!
I have even if I rotate the pic before uploading..

ahhhh so this is a general Problem......
So when you upload via Facebook for Xperia this happens also ? or only if you upload directly ?
Rotating

Yeah its really annoying!
But I found out if u use the facebook button over the picture when watching it on the pictureviewer if will upload the picture the right way.

not only for facebook but for whatsapp as well. Rotate it and get the pic back to how it was looking before and it seems fine in whatsapp but when you upload it on facebook it comes horizontal.
But I don't have problem with Whatsapp.

try putting the same picture which goes horizontally as your display picture on whatsapp, that is the only time i have found the issue, forgot to mention in the previous post.

Best Facebook App for Messaging

I'm looking to switch to Windows Phone 8 but I have yet to find a Facebook app that will allow me to view and send photos in the Chat window.
The Stock Facebook app won't show photos or allow you to send photos.
Also I would like one that sends the actual picture and not some link that the other person has to click on.

Yes I know that there are lots of them - I just figured someone on here would know which one does what I was asking(which is why I asked the question in the first place)
Otherwise I would download all 200 of them and try them myself :good:

I read that Fim Chat, ICQ (yep, that one!), and IM+ can send photo attachments.

[Q] Does whatsapp automatically post photo without confirmation?

When you take a photo using Camera from WhatsApp, does it give you an option to send it or discard, or Send it right away?
Because i think it should give you discard / send option which i'm not getting in my Z1? (It automatically sent photo after shutter)
Bug with Z1 or WhatsApp? What do you guys think?

Same Issue here, the "Special Edition of WhatsApp", too!
not just an isse on z1... coz i own the z ultra too. same problem...
well.. it has something to do with the camera app... try another one and it will work
regards
try sending multiple pics, you will get the option to either send or discard
Hope someone knows how to fix this. I own the Z Ultra too and it doesn't prompt to discard or send after taking a pic. Sometimes there is really a need to retake the photo.

Zoe is built into the gallery on ur gallery when u view ur photos taken by the camera at the very top there is a video playing tap on that and u can select and deselect which photos to add. That's a part of zoe it's been around since the m7 launched
