Linking Contacts btwn Google Contacts/FB

[Strygun]

So, my phone syncs both my google contacts and my FB friends. In the "people" section, I have "show FB contacts" disabled so that I only see Google Contacts with phone numbers. However, for many of my contacts, if I tap them, there is a green "1" up in the "link" area, with a suggested link. How can I view all of those suggestions so that I can approve them?

I don't think that there's a way to view just the contacts that have suggested links. I think that you have to check the "show FB contacts" and then look for duplicates and manually link them one at a time. It's sorta of a pain, but you only have to do it once...unless you delete one of the accounts. Then you have to do it all over again.

You should install FBSync. It does this for you in one fell swoop.

Matt - Will this also add FB users to my normal contact list, even if I don't want them there? Basically, I just want the people who are already on my Google contact list to be linked to their FB accounts, without adding any new contacts.

That's what I want as well. BB's fb sync did this.....

Same and same. I've started going through to approve all of the links by hand but it's just too tedious. I think I'm on "D" right now haha.

This is a pain, definitely need to find a way to do this. Subscribed, hoping someone knows how or discovers it!

Will be sure to post back if I find something.
