[GUIDE] Xperia Facebook Calendar Event Timezone Fix - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

*FOR ROOTED PHONES ONLY*
Hi,
maybe some of you have experienced problems with incorrect time displayed in your synced calendar.(7hours for me)- Facebook Inside Xperia
I managed to decompile the code of FBCalendarSync.apk and fixed it.
If somebody is interested here is fix for central Europe (Berlin/Paris/Prague/Budapest/Bratislava)
Just replace FBCalendarSync.apk file in your /system/app folder
If you find it useful hit the thanks button. I can also change the fix for other timezone if somebody is interrested.

I have same problem too and my solution is now via 3rd party app...but your solution is more clean and better....
Your app is from ICS or GB ?

That's why I had to do it, I didn't like the 3rd party app in my phone when I have this nice stock one.
This app is from ICS but I'm pretty sure this fix will work for GB too.
Here is how I did it. If you have some problems let me know.

I try it and works fine. All my FB events have correct time. Great
I have question about Daylight saving time.... when DST ended, time will be wrong 1 hour or not ?
[NON ENGLISH]
Po slovensky to zkoušet psát nebudu, ale česky snad nebude problém Jde mi o to, jestli při přechodu na zimní čas to bude funkční, nebo ne... Obecně je to občas docela pakárna, dobře zesynchronizovat nejen události s Google kalendářem například.

Well, that is good question. But since I did it yesterday, I don't know yet if that would change something. We have to wait for Daylight saving time to end and see what happens

I'm in Eastern Standard Time (GMT -5:00). Would I change the value to "const/4 v4, -0x4" then? Thanks.
EDIT:
One more thing. Does this also fix birthdays appearing a day early? That has annoyed me greatly for a while and I keep wishing people a day early. (Although it could have been worse and I could get notices a day late.)
Thanks again!

Well, it seems your timezone GMT-5 corresponds to to one in the app by default. If it is not correct try to adjust the constant to meet your needs.
For me it fixed all the events including birthdays.
You can give it a try, but make sure you back up the original app first.

I ended up deciding on another course of action: Export my Facebook Birthdays and Upcoming Events calendars and import them into my Google Calendar directly.
This ends up being more beneficial for a few reasons.
1. All events have the correct times and dates.
2. I can see all my calendar events in 1 place as opposed to having some in GC and some in FB.
3. I can access my GC from anywhere without the need of a special app.
4. I wasn't really using the Gallery Sync and the regular FB app has Contact Sync. So I can pretty much stop using Facebook Inside Xperia altogether, which is one less app consuming bandwidth and battery.
The only problem is that any events that are not Public (so Friends or Invite Only), do not show up by default in GC. They have Private tags on them. So I'm running my calendar through another server that converts all of the Private tags into Public and then feed that URL to GC. It's not ideal, but it works pretty well.
Eventually I may attempt to fix the Facebook Inside Xperia app and I do appreciate the hard work that you put in to figure this out. Until then, I think that my current solution will do the trick.
Thanks again!

So what are the settings for EST?

Does this fix the bug wherein the calendar birthdays are empty?
Sent from my ST15i using xda app-developers app

I don't use this solution anymore because I have CyanogenMod now. Sticking to google calendar as MechaBouncer explained and adding facebook events there seems to be good. Never experienced timezone problems. You can also add friend's birthdays separately

Google Calendar and FB Private Events

Yes, I also use Google calendar synced with my Facebook, but somehow Xperia Facebook integration seems to catch private events that Google Calendar does not ;/
Seems that Sony couldn't care less as ICS is full of bugs from them and no update so far!

Tried, but only the event times were fixed not the birthdays

I've tried this solution.... and it partially worked (thanks for the partial fix).
The event times are now not 7 hours ahead, but the birthdays still appear a day early. Is there anyway to fix that also?

[APP] Next2Me 1.3 RC4 for download here

Hi @ll!
I recently released version 1.2 of my latest App "Next2Me" to the US Windows Marketplace.
Next2Me uses GPS and shows you all available businesses around you from over 30 categories. You can view the results on a map, show detailed information. You can also call the target business, send the detail information to your friends by Mail or SMS or save the business to your contact list all by only one click!
And here is the latest BETA version of the upcoming Next2Me 1.3.
[UPDATE]
You can now manually choose between miles and meters. And for all US and Candians, Next2Me is now searching for "Gas stations"
[UPDATE]
I changed the GPS code a bit because some users get an exception on some devices.
[UPDATE]
Again changed the GPS device detection.
[UPDATE 04/25/2010]
o RC1 released
o Next2Me languages: DE, EN, FR, NL
o A menu to tell Next2Me how to search for your GPS device (this will solve several issues, like the exception told by some users and the unwanted bluetooth dialog which is automatically poping up)
[UPDATE 04/27/2010]
o Next2Me now in IT (thanks to Spyrale)
o Beautiful new High-Res Icons for the menu (thanks to Saumaun)
o Limit the search radius (250m, 500m, 1000m, 1500m, all)
[UPDATE 04/28/2010]
o Fixed a language bug for the italian version
[UPDATE 05/01/2010]
o Updated language strings for NL, FR and IT
If there aren't any more suggestions or bugs, this version will be send to the Marketplace
So, have fun with Next2Me and send me your suggestions, critics, etc.
C YA @LL!

Any non-marketplace download
Is this available anywhere besides the MS Marketplace? I don't want to have to install this to my internal memory.
I like the app: http://www.fuzemobility.com/learn-whats-next2me/
Any thoughts of using Google Location instead of GPS to speed things up? also, I don't see a way to email a location- just to SMS. Am I missing it? If it could pull the Google info that would be nice as well (such as type of restaurant, rating, etc). Overall I do like it though. Good luck with the project!
great app so far but sometimes you cant get a gps fix or it can take awhile. would it be possible to use google location or Sleuth's myLocation Service here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=607102. These might work better and they will almost always work and are much quicker than a gps fix.
Looks interesting. But please, could you kindly post it somewhere else than on the Marketplace.
No way I will go to the MarketPlace. I do not want to download any cab on the internal memory.
Thanks

From what I've seen, this app has a lot of promise, but I have had a problem...
On my Tilt2, whenever I look for something with Next2Me, I get a message "Invalid GPS Signal..." or "No GPS Device found.". But, if I start up Google Maps first, and let it get my GPS position and then start up Next2Me, it works just fine. Any thoughts/suggestions?
Also, if it could toggle between km and miles, it'd help for us Americans who won't join the rest of the world in using km's
One more suggestion for future updates...if we could set the # of hits returned or better yet, if we could specify a 'radius' to search it'd make the app even more user friendly.
Thanks for the work and keep it up

Hm, that's a GPS-Problem under Windows. You can use QuickGPS to improve the lock-time, but that doesn't always work.

Yeah, I am already aware of the "km/miles"-Bug ... this will be fixed in the next version, of course.
Your suggestion with the amount of hits returned or the search radius is very good and will be proofed.

Yeah, that would be a solution to use the location service using the Google Location. I can implement support for the myLocation service of Sleuth, but I would prefer to implement the location service into Next2Me, so that there is no need for the user to install another application to use Next2Me. Are there any specifications or source code snippets how to use the Google Location service under Windows Mobile?
I don't see a way to email a location- just to SMS. Am I missing it? If it could pull the Google info that would be nice as well (such as type of restaurant, rating, etc). Overall I do like it though. Good luck with the project!

Next2Me checks your Mobile Outlook on you cell phone, if there's an E-Mail account available. This e-mail account will be used to send the email with the location service. The button for sending an e-mail will only be shown if there's an email account set up in your Windows Mobile.
Hope this helps!

im using the Next2Me form the first day it has been released in marketplace
i think its 1.0
works great in my hd2
Good to hear that ... I don't know the exact cause of the problem, but strangewise the GPS-Stream is on most of the HD2 different to rest of the world's mobile phones ... and on some not, like yours.

Hi - I found the app on a desktop using the link you provided, but it doesnt appear in my mobile marketplace to download. Any idea?

Not really ... it's currently available as BETA version. You can download it from the first post. Did Next2Me crash with version 1.1 or earlier? I want to test it with as much cell phones as possible, so please write me if you have any errors with Next2Me.
Additional info: Next2Me 1.2 BETA also supports location using the GSM network. So, it also works with cell phones without GPS module.
Love the new version, Fast, nice GUI and great info! Thanks for this very useful app!
LoL I restart the Omnia and now it works good (Version 1.2).
But how can we add content?

What do you mean with that? Do you want to add your own categories and search criterias? This is not possible currently. I am thinking about implementing it, but currently it's not possible. This BETA version is for testing it with as much as possible cell phones, to be sure position detection is working on every phone.
C YA
Tested on tmobile touch pro 2 and works very well on cell tower location. Haven't tried on GPS.
However, the result for gas station is way off, reporting station like 700KM away from current location. Other services seem fine.
Besides, is it possible to change units? Or show current gas price?
Working really nice on my HD2 ! Congratulations man

What do you excatly mean "birthdays imported from facebook"? If it's imported to outlook contacts all apps should have no problems with that. Do you mean directly check facebook contacts ?

in hd2, you can link your phone contacts to facebook contacts of your facebook account. That automatically imports his/her current facebook profile photo and birthday date to your hd2 contact of that person.
btw, ill give it a go, now that im at home and give feedback
edit: i tested the app. It won't create events for the people that have their birthday imported from facebook :/
overall, its a nice application, it runs smoothly in my device, and the ui is lovely. well done
also, i tried editing one of my existing contacts (whos birthday is set via facebook), and manually set his birthday, and the application automatically created an event for that persons birthday! Now, if only i wasnt lazy enough to change all my contacts
the only drawback i can think of is that it wont show any image for the contacts linked to a facebook account.

I have ported Sense from HD2 to HD and i know this feature but for me works only import image. And this image is visible only in "sense" software.
Can you go to standard Contacts application and send me content of Notes from imported contact? I have suspicions for that.
Thanks for the app, but it does not work on my HTD TD2 (rom Dutty Holy Grail R7.1 FRE).
The app launches but hangs once in the main menu (I can't press any button, can't stop the app and I have to soft reset the device).

[APP] Facebook Outlook Sync for Sense 2.5

NEW VERSION Uploaded (Feb 4, 2011): FB2ContactPicSync_v1003.CAB
Fully skinnable.
Images now fill the whole space.
And the potential for the initial contact crash is fixed.
And the skinning can use pngs with transparency.
And it should be installable to the storage card now.
I developed an app to add the facebook pic to outlook contacts.
Sense 2.5 automatically adds images to your device to be used for your contacts in Sense.
But, the image is not added to your outlook contacts.
I went through the threads that it suggested before creating this thread.
If you like this app, please use the Thanks feature of the site.
And of course donations are always appreciated;
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7380024
What does the app do:
Interactive Mode:
For each contact
{
... if the contact is linked to facebook
... {
... ... if there is a facebook image on the phone for the contact
... ... {
... ... ... if the contact already has an image associated with it.
... ... ... {
... ... ... ... display both images, ask user if user wants to replace current with facebook image on device
... ... ... }
... ... ... else
... ... ... {
... ... ... ... display facebook image and ask to add facebook image on device to outlook contact
... ... ... }
... ... }
... }
}
Later, it will also have a batch mode.
After pressing Start, give it a minute. It is looping through all contacts finding the ones that are associated to a facebook account. It stores them in a dictionary for processing with the other buttons.
Again, please use the Thanks feature and donate as you feel appropriate.
Note: initial version had over 200 downloads.
v1001 had 190
v1002 had about 50
I removed the other attachments, leaving only the most recent version to avoid any confusion about what should be downloaded.
Reserved for images or something
Pics of version 1003
Reserving Post #3 for bugs or known issues
Make sure to sync with facebook before running the app. Otherwise you will need to click on an eror for each contact that yoou sync with facebook.
Tips / extras
App is fully skinnable.
If you want to make the button look like it is pressed when you press it, there are images in the program directory for that.
All artists, please post custom images and backgrounds.
Control locations are not editable. (maybe in a future version I get screen coordinates from an ini file.) But, for now, just make images that assume things will be where they are.
Reserving post #5
Just reserving this incase I think of something else important.
Maybe a change log or something.
Icon Request
I am making pretty good progress on the app.
Currently it is displaying the image for both facebook and outlook.
Interactive only.
No batch mode yet.
But, I am not much of an artist.
If some of you could make and post some icons, that would be very helpful.
Thanks,
JVH3
[EDIT]
Came up with my own icon.
Feel free to still upload any that you think are better. I can use it the next version.
I'm no good with graphic design, just wanted to stop in and say that I can't wait for this to come out. It's very annoying that outlook contacts don't retain the facebook pictures after a flash.
will your app allow the user to pick which facebook image to display as the contact image if the user has several profile pictures available on facebook?

Nope. It just lets you set the outlook image to be the image that Sense Facebook integration downloaded.

Ok, downloaded and installed (on device) but get an error abt 5 seconds after having pressed start...
I was wondering if it would be possible to have the app like continuously running or being linked to the update feature in Sense contacts...That way, whenever an update is done on facebook and synced with Sense it gets to Outlook, without the need for a manual starting of this app...
Will be on the lookout for an update, so I can try again.

Would you be able to post a screen capture of your error?
Appoximately how many contacts do you have that sync with facebook?
There are just a couple things that it could be.
If the facebook image for the contact is not on your device. That could cause an error.
Discovered some inconsistancies in the data that I was looking for.
Currently, it only handles contacts where the facebook id is noted by
<sn>id:somenumber/friendof:somenumber</sn>
But, it needs to be modified to also handle
<Facebook>id:somenumber/friendof:somenumber</Facebook>
It's late. Update will be made tomorrow.

I think I figured out what the issue is. A long while back, contacts used to store <sn>id:
Now they use <Facebook>id:
I have modified the app to handle both.
I pulled the original version and just uploaded a new version.
Glad you had the error, otherwise alot of my contacts would have been missed. Thanks for testing.
Nice effort!
1. installed on device HD2 using ROM from signature
2. started in interactive mode
3. first contact -> clicked Replace With
second contact: idem
4. immediately after that the program crashed with an ArgumentException at CheckInvalidPathChars.
I'll install NETCFv35.Messages and ShakeAndSave later to give more details.
PS: Currently the program installs to CE:\Prgram Files directly instead of it's own subfolder when chooising 'Device' as installation target.
best regards

I will also verify that the facebook image exists on the phone before accessing it. I'm sure that is where the exception is occuring.
Second Run:
It behaves the same when keeping the outlook picture. After the second contact is clicked the program crashes with the same errormessage.
The previous replacement seems to be kept on the device and the thus modified contacts seem to get synced correctly to the desktop.

Did you install the version that I just uploaded maybe 5 minutes ago?
Or the first version that I uploaded?

Probably the first since the timestamp in the CAB shows a difference of more than 1h. I'll try again with the version that is there now.
Maybe using a version number in the filename isn't a bad idea.
best regards

My guess is that some of your contacts that are associated with facebook do not have a facebook contact picture on the phone.
Could be caused by a friend on facebook cancelling his or her facebook account.
I'll add a check to make sure the file exists tomorrow and some exception handling for anything else I haven't thought of.

i believe the blur email requires the motoblur framework which is included in Ms2Ginger but not in CM7... i find the CM7 email client to be equally good and much fast! I use it for checking my office email and the rules etc to move emails to folder are already set in my exchange account so no need to set them on the CM7 client. Hope this helps!
ok this make sense, but maybe it is possible to include this framework too.
my company account is not the problem, there are also rules active in exchange. but my 5 private imap accounts are the problem.
i get much info mails from my linux server, and these have an own folder.
cheers

Sort of in the same boat but haven't really been too motivated to replace it, but just for context, the reason for the stoppage seems to be that Facebook retired V1 of its public API on April 30 2015.
In theory anyone could take up the task of updating the haxsync source but afaik it hasn't generated any interest from a willing and able party.
Damnnnn sucks, which somebody would get it working again
Damnnn Surprised no other dev has taken up on this....... Haxsync had a nice fanbase and it was a paid app also...... Anybody found any alternative ?

In May 2015, Facebook dumped it's old API which supported getting a complete list of all your friends from within an app. The new API does not support this. The only friends it can see now are friends who have the same app. Facebook basically broke every app that does what Haxsync does. This is why you don't see any new ones.
I'm not an android dev. I'm just repeating what I was told. I do wonder why my dialer app on my LG G3 is still able to sync all photos, though. I think that is done automatically through the Facebook app. Maybe it has more permissions allowed through Facebook than standard apps. I don't know.
