Contacts: facebook link - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Under each contact (using Sony's contacts app) at the bottom there is a CONNECTION section (I am traslating from Italian, in English it could be something else) that lists a link to facebook profile for that contact. Where is this informations taken from? how can i remove it?

You have Facebook app, and Facebook in xperia.
You can both find in synchronization settings.

Contack and calandar apps..

Hi all..
I have been searching for a contact app and a calendar witch will sync with google and Facebook.. but without luck :-\
So my question is, can any1 upload and share the std from HTC? I like it and would like to use it, if it's possible? Atleast just the contact app ;-)
Thx :-D

First of all..
This is the wrong section in which to ask questions..
Do that in general..
Second..
You can only use the HTC apps in stock HTC Roms..
So you need to be more precise in what rom you are planning to use these applications.
LauncherProPlus (LPP) has clones of the HTC contacts, facebook, twitter, calendar, friendstream widgets...
Oh sorry.. i use the nightly builds ;-)
Will try launcherproplus then ;-)

IF you are refering to the actual contact list, it is possible to sync with FB. Just download the official FB app, log in and activate sync in settings. This syncs pictures and some info.

I don't quite understand what you need exactly. I'm also using a nightly build (43) and my contacts and calendar are synced with my Google account. I didn't check with Facebook cause I don't have such account (and hope not need to have one ever) but with Google works fine. I'm not using any extra applications just the ones provided with the build. I have installed Dialer One and a calendar widget but that's nothing to do with the synchronization itself. That is done through Settings - Accounts & Sync

[Q] How to sync Facebook pics to Messaging :(

I noticed that even though i have Facebook set to sync with existing contacts, it doesn't sync the profile pictures of people with the messaging app. it does show the pictures in Contacts, but not messaging or phone calls. Is there anyway i can do this without any apps from the market? i wanna keep the stock messaging app. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Update on this, I've figured out how to sync my Facebook App with my contacts.
when i launch contacts it shows each persons Facebook Profile picture next to their name, however when I launch messaging or phone, I do not see these pictures, instead they are replaced with the default "No Picture" image
has anyone figured this out?
Rom: Mosaic V
I would ask in the Rom q&a thread as this should be the normal behavior if the snsprovider etc are incorporated into the Rom. Haven't messed with any of their new stuff but I would assume they have the correct apks included.
Delete all your accounts. Use the integrated Facebook thing in Accounts to sync your Facebook account to your phone. Then install Facebook and Twitter app.
Remember to clear Samsung Mobile in your Facebook App page, otherwise it won't work properly.

Saving Attachments

Has anyone worked out how to save an attachment from the Gmail app without a third party app.
I can only preview attachments
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
Get K9 Mail.
I don't want to use a third party app though
I can't believe Google would create an email app and not think that people might want to save attached files.
Edit
Looks like Gmail doesn't support mp3 attachments
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
I don't think there is the option to save the attachment, but what I do, I log in to my Gmail account from Web Browser on my phone and then you can save all the attachments.
I know this is not a solution you were looking for, but it's also easier than using a 3rd party app.
Cheers
Will do that until Google sort this out
Hi,
I use GSaver to save my attachments. Search for it in the market. when you choose preview from the gmail app choose gsaver to "open" it and it will prompt you for a location.
Cheers,
Daniel

Socialhub software facebook issue

Note is my first Samsung Android device and I liked the Socialhub app so much. It is much better then friendstream app of HTC. But when I click on facebook links I always end up with a browser screen with warning message this page cannot be shown. Anybody knows how to fix this or is this a well known bug? I don't know if its related but email app also doesn't show attachments as well.

What is the usefulness that you find with Social Hub that the Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn app can't do? They get integrated with your contacts too and you can open profile from contacts.

Facebook contacts not showing..

I have created Facebook account and it's working in socialhub but I couldn't get the contacts to sync with device. In GB there will be an option to check whether do or do not sync contacts. But I couldn't find it in ICS. How to solve this?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
go to your contacts and hit settings. then accounts. Then check off the "sync" icon next to facebook
^^ Copy That.
Else you can do one more thing. Reinstall the FB app. Once I got stuck in somewhat similar thing like that.
I found that my facebook application which was restored by titanium backup didn't actually sync well with contacts. so had to reinstall.
I checked it and its in green color. When I go further it shows only messages and calendar. It didn't show up contacts. Any idea?

I'm talking about inbuilt social hub which lets the contacts to sync with Facebook account.. Can I re install that?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Why don't you use the fb app which is AVAILABLE in market. It also syncs in the same way.
Sure it will work.. But I don't wanna pile up with apps. Social hub has to do this job and I wanted to do it. Actually when I was GB I'll remove all social hub related apps (twitter account, linked account, even default mail app) except Facebook account, still it was syncing contacts flawlessly. Now I wanted the same. Does ICS doesn't have that capability??

Should I remove all Facebook items from ICS and install third party apps from market?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Well I think you should wait for some more time till a solution comes out. I had the same problem with SocialHub. I chose over FB Market App since I didnt have time & wanted to get my contacts asap back. :/ Still will send you any info which might be helpful on this topic
Thanks.. Just now Google it... It seems there is a bug in ICS that stops sync contacts particularly in contactsprovider.apk. We need to add some .xml file it seems. Which is too tech for me so m gonna search some other option for this.
