Hi,

Has anyone noticed that the facebook synergy appears to not be working, in that all the facebook contacts are not showing up in the contacts app, and/or not synergizing with alike names? This has happened to me before and I had to go back in and manually relink all the records that facebook did not recognize initially due to unlike data. Anyone know the fix to this? Real annoying!

I noticed my contact photos no longer synch with Facebook and won't update when I tell it to update via settings.

I recently read that facebook changed the way the contacts sync into the phone to avoid a lot of the non-important info that comes over. Now, basically if there is no useful info such as birthday, email, phone, etc. the contact record will not sync, including the photo.

Yeah I heard that too but this is happening to everyone including those that have complete info in their profiles. I think they just removed that ability period no matter what the contact does.

I read something similar but it all hinges on email address. If they don't have a personal email address other than @facebook.com address then it doesn't sync. Which sucks since most everyone on facebook had the visible access changed to that a while back and you had to explicitly change it from that default. Seems like a ploy to push facebook home personally.
