hi guys, i'm sorry if this had been asked before, but i'm really new to the phone. i'm currently on sprint network using the sbp mobile shell 3.5 and i have facebook v1.1.0.17. i was wondering if there was a faster way to sync all facebook pictures to my contact all at once? i remember my blackberry did it, but i'm not sure if the tp2 is able to. i know i can do it one at a time and link the contact to their fb page, but i have over 300 contacts. that would take forever!

oh yea, i was just on my fb app to check the version i was using, and it wasnt up to date, even when i hit refresh. it would show statuses from last wednesday. any ideas?

thanks in advance!

do a PIM Backup. Then delete all your contacts.. THEN on your slider, go to settings -> Data Services. Then enter your login info for facebook. THEN import your contacts.. Your contacts should sync up with Facebook automatically.

I hope this helps

I log into facebook by clicking on "Me" in my contacts then from the home screen scroll over to "People-All People" then click the 3rd icon over (the one that looks like it has a clock near the guys head) and the list populates itself (except the people I only have first names in the address book those I have to do manually) but it takes care of the majority of them

i think it's not syncing because all my contact #s are labeled in "work" and not "mobile".
right?
