Help remove facebook contacts from phone list?

[ParrisJ319]

THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT



Menu Button>More button (on my phone is it 4 lines) > Remove App > All Apps > go to Facebook App and Facebook for HTC Sense > Clear Data > Ok.

Do that for both it will delete them out of Calendar and your Phone list

So, just to clarify: Is there no way to have ONLY the facebook contacts you want synced and none of the others? Been through a load of times, successfully deleted everyone, no problem. But if you then try to manually link up through the People app and you have not synced your contacts at all then when you try to sync to a contact you want to sync with every search will say "no contacts".

I take it, then, that it's all or nothing, you can delete all your FB contacts or you can show all your FB contacts but you can't sync only with your real friends and leave your FB "friends" off? I know you can hide the visibility of them, but when I bluetooth connect with my car phone system it shows everything, whether it's "hidden" or not in various apps. I want to sync up with my real friends' FB accounts without then getting in the car and being presented with 50 options to call people I only know on facebook.

Is it still all or nothing? It's not terribly clear, cos some people do talk about then manually syncing up through the People app to folks you want to sync with, but I can't do that as there are "No contacts found".

Been trying those steps posted for 3 days now. Still the contacts were in my phone. Happened to ask the question on fb and got these steps. And yes it worked. Fb contacts are No longer clogging my phone book.
Using the FB application I did this.

1) sign on to Facebook.

2) touch settings.

3)Scroll all the way to the bottom. To "other settings"

4)click on "sync contacts"

5) underneath will say "don't sync."
if it doesn't say that. Then you have activated the sync contact option.

Hope this helps any future questions.

And Facebook for HTC sense which never wanted to upload my photos.
