in Froyo the birthdays would show up on my calendar and my contacts would have their FB picture on there automatically..i try to add Facebook in the Sync part and it doesnt do anything..like i'm not clicking on it..any suggestions?
thanks for the info, that does suck..i liked how it sync'd up..oh well not the most important feature on the phone so no big deal.![]()
I used SyncMyPix. Works good.
I use this as well to sync facebook pics. It does the job well enough to not miss the facebook integration.
Do you still need a app to get the pictures to show up on the contacts using this method?Much easier way to sync facebook contacts:
Export contacts in Facebook to a CSV file.
Use this FB app: Export Friends To CSV | Facebook
Import CSV file under your Gmail account that is linked to your phone.
Voila.
If you find in dire need of contact pictures and all you Facebook contact info all in one place you will have to perform a few steps. They are universal in any email service, you just have to know where some of these settings are. Today we will be using Yahoo Mail and gMail my personal standards for all my email needs.
Step 1.) login to your yahoomail.
Step 2.)go to contact - then choose import email from facebook (it suck all your friend email address into your contact list)
Step 3.)export yahoo csv. download/save it.
Step 4.)login to your gmail
Step 5.)upload the csv file to gmail contact.
Step 6.) Merge your double contacts
Step 7.) Go to your Nexus S and turn off gMAIL Contacts Sync Radio Button
Step 8.) Wait about 60 seconds then turn it on.
Step 9.) Download SYNCMYPIX from the Marketplace or App Brain ( links and QR codes will be at the bottom)
Step 10.) Login using Facebook credentials
I know this process is long and arduous, but trust me, if done correctly (making sure gMAIL contacts match yMAIL contacts match Facebook contacts, etc) you will always have a perfectly clear and non pixilated profile pic on your caller id. I have tested this and it works. If you need screenshots or have any question please do NOT hesitate to ask.

I am considering doing this, but why step 9?
