Facebook Contact Sync with CM6

[jeffreynothing43]

Hey Everyone!

Thanks to some advice you have given me I am now running CM6 and love it. I have had almost no problems getting everything set up and working except for one intermittent problem.

Facebook syncing with my contacts.

Some contacts sync, others do not. And there names are matching Facebook. I know in Sense you can search and link. Is there something I'm missing? I've dug through settings and can't find anything to link or sync the existing contacts that didn't link up.

FYI - I did try removing the account and adding it again.

Thanks for any help.

Did you sync all contacts from your FB friends and not just from google?

I only want to sync with my existing contacts. It does it will some, but not with all.

If your contacts don't match exactly - it doesn't know what to sync -
ie - your buddies name is Steven Johnson and so listed on FB - But you just call him by a nick name... Dick Trickle (N Carolina Nascar joke...sorry - REAL NAME DON"T PUNISH ME MODS) They won't sync.
