Help Facebook Sync

[Rbatman]

I already have my contacts synced with fb however, my bf has a hero and he is able to see his contacts statuses right from his contacts. Is there a way that the moment can do the same thing? Can I go to my contacts and click on their link to get right to their profile page?

Sounds interesting.

the facebook app itself is supposed to do all that, but it doesn't.

I have been reading some things and I believe it is called "integrated facebook", but regardless of what it is called I would like my moment to do this. I am an avid facebook user and this would be very useful =)

I have been searching all over to find SOMETHING that even comes close to resembling how the hero allows you to look at pictures, statuses, and facebook pages right from the contact itself, but obviously no luck. Someone PLEASE tell me they have found something!

First post - how do you sync the 2? Some of my contacts have added their facebook pics next to their name but most have not.

The Accounts and sync application in the dd03/dd10 release seems to be broken and causing the sync issue with facebook.. the milestone had the same issue from research... Hopefully it will be fixed in the final release

I've gotten them to sync using the Droid facebook app that's been floating around. You can't use the one that comes from the market. This version found in reply 6 in this thread at SDX (facebook sync issue) works for me.

So just to summarize:
1.Get 2.1 (I'm using DD10)
2. Uninstall Facebook app if you had installed it from the market.
3. Install the facebook app referenced above (using astro manager)
4. Go to Menu->Settings->Accounts & Sync-> Add new account->Facebook.

That's all. Works beautifully -- seems to be syncing Pics and more importantly contact info (emails and phone #). I could be wrong about the pics though (I had SyncMyPics (sp?) earlier, so that may be where the pics are from.)
