Having trouble linking facebook contact pics... - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I had no issue with this with my original Evo 4G. Once I had contact's linked to their Facebook accounts, their FB image would appear as their contact image. The only exception to this would be if they had a Google image.
I'm having trouble getting the same thing to work on the new 4G LTE. The contacts are definitely linked. However their FB image doesn't appear. Just the default "anonymous grey dude" image.
If you are having the same issue as above(which I had) try these:
1. HaxSync
or
2. FaceBook Contact Sync
This worked for me!!! Finally all my contacts have pictures!!!! Found this fix while googling...not my work. Just wanted to share!

EDIT: Nevermind...

Do a Google search for 'Photo Unlocker APK' and you might be able to find the app that will solve your problem.
I'm using it and it works great:

There was a thread here on this forum that had a working link, but unfortunately, that link is now dead for whatever reason.

I use this to. It unlocks the photos in other apps on your phone like messenger and others but it still wouldn't work for me in the people app. Thats why I posted what i found.

In your search did you ever find an app that syncs your Facebook calendar with your Google calendar? Sense does this just fine, but if I switch to a non-Sense ROM someday I'd still like that feature.
My limited searching kept pulling up instructions on "syncing" the two by exporting the FB calendar and importing it into Google's, which obviously isn't the same as syncing the two.

[Q] Where's my Search Phone program gone?

Hi guys, only just got round to flashing to the official HTC T-Mobile(UK) ROM 1.72.110.4 and noticed some nice bonuses like a working youtube App from the get-go (yay) and facebook album integration from the manila contacts now show the pictures
Only thing is I'm sure there used to be a program that let me search the contents of the phone, which looks to have been replaced by bing search which isnt the same thing. Does anyone have a cab or know how else I can restore it? I cant remember where some of the apps save things so I used to just search my phone for the filename and voila. Would be nice to get that feature back. Please help

Did you search your phone to look for it
I have the same problem on a custom WM6.5 ROM for my Omnia. The tool is not there.
Was anyone able to add the "Search Phone" as a cab?

Stock calender app does not have google calender acount anymore

I have checked the ther forums for any repeat problems in this issue. but since there are non, i have to post a new thread.
I done a hard reset on my phone, its spanking new.
but when i want to sync my calender with google calender, i have this error.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
maybe the new stock calender is empty, and by sync, it will delete all in my google calender, so it says too many item deleted. what ever option i choose, the problem keeps repeat itself.
SO....i went to google about this, it seems to be a common problem, and the solution is http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=114500&topic=21414
i did that, which is to
go settings>application>manage application>all>calender storage
and clear data.
Now this is the part i'm screwed. look at this.
My calender app is no longer linked to my google account and google calender at all. pressing calender sync will no longer have the error message, but it will not sync to my google account at all.
WHat am i suppose to do? please help. i've google about this and theres no solution.
my phone is rooted by the way, if thats any good news.
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
i can't believe it. I actually solved my own problem.
I've been really depress, and never stop google about this. i tried reading about reinstalling the stock calender, but doubt that it would work.
Then i suddenly had an idea, i added my friends gmail acount into "acounts and sync",
once successfully added, i clicked calender sync,
TADA!!! in calender app, the option of my gmail acount and the new gmail acount both appeared!
so i went back to delete the new gmail acount from my phone, and all is back to where it was.
SO proud and happy of myself ^^V

[Q] Cant see friends picture albums on facebook

I have been unable to watch my friends picture albums in the facebook app for a few months now. If i goto a friends profile there simply is no link to the picture albums!!
Am i the only one hving this problem or am i just blind??
Let me re-phrase the question:
How do you see your friends photo albums in the facebook app?
Oh, and how come the facebook app isn't the same for my tab and my wifes galaxy s2? On her phone the facebook app looks much more beautiful and profiles are shown with the new timeline/cover picture format. On my tab it's the same old look as it was before the timeline update.
Same here. The facebook app is rather basic. Im guessing as its designed for phones, its not programmed properly for Honeycomb. They need to come up with a tablet version like the iPad has.

Questions go in the Q&A section
Run the Contacts app, display all your fb contacts, under groups. Using the view profile link from these contacts loads up fb WITH the bottom bar, to cycle through wall, info and photos.

[Q] Some email attachments not visible after ICS update

Been searching for this all morning with no luck.
Got given the bosses Galaxy S2 last week, so did a factory reset then an OTA update to 4.0.3 then started playing and setting it up for work use. I am using the inbuilt email program for my work POP3 account and the gmail program for the gmail account, viewing both through the combined email viewer - all working fine.
However, when I receive after hours voice mail messages from work, which send as a .wav file, the attachments wont show up, ie when viewing the email there is no attachments tab. If I try to forward the message, sure enough the attachment is there and visible and openable. All other attments seem to be showing OK (as in documents, PDF's, etc) just not the .wav files.
Is there a security setting or something somewhere that needs changing?
Well General is not the place where you stick questions. Moved to Q&A.
Sorry about that, thanks for relocating for me.
Further to the mystery, I mentioned if I try to forward the email I can now see the attachment in my outgoing message, well I decided to send the forward and the message that comes in now has the attachment visible...
This is what I mean - this is an incoming message where the attachment is not showing and no way of finding it -
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Whereas this one that was received same as above, but then simply forwarded back to myself - now the attachment is visible so it was obviously always there
Bump!! Anyone?
I am getting the voice mails redirected to my gmail account today to see if it makes any difference.

Managing contacts on a dual-sim phone

A co-worker asked me to find this out for him. He has a dual-SIM phone. He wants to use WhatsApp on both SIMs, so he has a WhatsApp account associated with each SIM. He doesn't want contacts associated with one WhatsApp account to be mixed up (or even visible) when he's using the other WhatsApp account. Is this do-able?
He's running Lollipop, but I'm not sure which release. Probably very recent.
Thanks.
