Can't add Facebook sync account

[anon(19759)]

When I go to Settings, Accounts and try to add the FB sync account, I keep getting an "Internal server error. Please try again" message every time. Anyone else able to do this? I don't see any options in the FB app itself for turning on contact sync.

Contact Sync

Nor Can I. Not sure if its a similar problem.

On my Droid Pro I added all my accounts - Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn etc. All the contacts downloaded fine. What about if I add new contacts to those accounts on the websites. How does that sync. Is it automatic? It hasn?t been so far!

Any help?

Do you mean you loaded the fb app and logged in or were you actually able to add through accounts setting? I can't even get that far to download contacts.

Oh! I can add all the accounts and app. I just can get photos to download for Facebook contacts. Nor can I seem to sync newly added or deleted contacts from my social apps to my phone contacts!

I don't even get an internal server error. When I click on facebook to add account it just goes back to the main accounts page and it does nothing. Hmm...

I couldn't add any new account to sync... i solved the problem running Root Explorer

i went to /system/app

and re-installed AccountAndSyncSettings.apk


hope it helps
