Import Facebook Contacts to Google Contacts

[hybernate]

Hi there,

Is there a way to import the facebook contacts stored on my HTC Desire handset to google by utilising the auto-sync feature?

I have synced my phone with facebook and now want to transfer the email addresses and birthdays of my facebook friends to google contacts.

I understand from reading posts on other forums that there are a few ways to do this, such as manually importing and exporting csv files (Sync/merge Facebook contacts with Gmail contacts - Gmail Help) or by way of a script (Import your Facebook Phonebook into your Google Contacts using Greasemonkey on Firefox), but this will require a manual update whenever I have a new facebook contact.

Seeing that my phone could auto-sync with both FB and Google, is there a way to automatically transfer new FB contacts to google whenever I hit the "Sync" button on my phone?

cheers
Martin

It won't happen unless FB change their privacy settings and allow access to their API. Doubtful it will ever happen, particularly now that G has blocked FB access to their API.

Clicky link for latest on arguement between the two.
