Guest ri2la Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 Snap i can't seem to do this either! got both facebook and twitter installed and showing contacts!
Guest irishandrew Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 Snap i can't seem to do this either! got both facebook and twitter installed and showing contacts! Isn't this a Froyo (2.2) feature? Lost track now which was cupcake & froyo, especially with HTC's version muddying the waters!
Guest ri2la Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 right, i can only get it to work automatically, as i still can't get the join button to appear. But if the name of the contact is the same as it appears in facebook and/or twitter it automatically joins the profiles

Also its not 2.2 only my friend is using cyanogen v5 (android 2.1) and he has it. Unfortunately, the apk doesnt work for me thought id grab it and see but it doesnt.
Guest ken218 Posted October 13, 2010 Report Posted October 13, 2010 I cared more about the contact pics, and I found an app does exactly what I was looking for - SyncMyPix It doesn't do much more than updating your contacts' pic with their facebook profile pics. But it makes my contacts list more colourful :)
Guest pellen Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 Sorry for bumping this thread, but I cannot find the join button either. And I'm using JJRLS7 with the facebook sync fix. Anyone with 2.2 who has this join button?

Anyone with 2.2 who has this join button? Isn't working for me either (JJRLS7+facebook sync fix). On FLB's ROM there was a Facebook bit at the bottom of each contact but that's not there and none of the contact photos have synced.
Guest JonnyX Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 Isn't working for me either (JJRLS7+facebook sync fix). On FLB's ROM there was a Facebook bit at the bottom of each contact but that's not there and none of the contact photos have synced. I'm, JJ RLS 8 and have sync'ed to Facebook okay, have all the pictures loading okay, only problem being - a LOT of my facebook contacts don't have phone numbers loaded up there, and you can't add these onto facebook contact details, so i now have 2 contacts each for every person who is a facebook friend but does not have their number up there. Very annoying, as it means that a lot of people now have 2 contacts in my contacts book - one sync'ed with facebook but with no number and one just with a number (and no pic). In short i would love to keep the sync'ing but get it down to 1 contact per person, but i can't find any 'join' feature to help merge my contacts. All these doubled contacts are showing the same names. Is there any way to acheiev this?
Guest Spies Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 To manually join contacts, go into the contacts, edit one, then press menu, tap join, and you should see the facebook profile.

Cheers for the reponse Spies. Yeah, read up on that and have tried but the only menu button options i get when in edit contact are: done, revert, new contact, delete contact. Maybe this is an issue with JJ RLS 8? Any other ideas?
