New App for Facebook Hi-Res Photo syncing - "Haxsync"

Re: New App for Facebook Hi-Res Photo syncing

The pictures are still pixelated to all hell...

Here is what he said...

Q: Why do some contacts lack status updates / have lower-res images?
A: Some people restrict what apps can access (i.e. statuses and galleries.). I have no way of getting their status or a high-res image for those people using the API, so I have to fallback to a lower-res (but still higher than google contact's 96x96) image

Interesting, thanks for the info. So it's on the contact's side of things. Oh well.

Nope. I have it set to sync all contacts from this app, google, some other facebook sync app. When I set it to show only the contacts with this app, it only shows 2 contacts. Tried resynching multiple times.

I installed but there is no "account sync" option in the Facebook app. Anyone else experience that?

Never mind, I figured it out.

Re: New App for Facebook Hi-Res Photo syncing

How do I go about manually linking a contact with HaxSync?

EDIT: Nevermind

Re: New App for Facebook Hi-Res Photo syncing

Ha, I've tried all the things you attempted as well to no avail. I just e-mailed Google about it. Hopefully I hear back soon.

Working fine for me now! Fingers crossed it syncs all my contacts.

I can't figure it out. I don't see an "account sync" option on Facebook either. Can anyone help me on this? I'm confused on what to do.

Re: New App for Facebook Hi-Res Photo syncing

Im seeing all the profile pictures in my "Peoples" app, but I only see a few of the profile pictures when I go into my dialer to call someone. Is there a way to get all those photos into my dialer?

Edit: OK i figured it out, its because I have 2-3 entries for the same person and my dialer was showing the entry that does not have the contact photo. By merging (joining) them in "People" app this took care of it. Now its showing the facebook photos on the dialer

Amazing! Talk about striking while the iron is Hot. Google will probably update this very soon and there wont be a need for Haxsync, but for now this very quick dev can make a pretty nice chunk of change. i grabbed it, worked as advertised. You'll probably have to go into "Accounts to Display" and uncheck Haxsync though. Otherwise ALL of your facebook contacts will populate your contacts. Unchecking HaxSync will remove them.

Re: New App for Facebook Hi-Res Photo syncing

this does not alter your contacts in a way that it doesn't backup on google, does it?

Re: New App for Facebook Hi-Res Photo syncing

No it is basically an app that gives permission to facebook to send contact info

Hey, I'm the dev of this app. Since xda's mods closed my thread for not having 100+ posts, I will try to answer your questions here.

tidusmccoy1515: That problem was most likely caused by one of your friends having a contact picture larger than 1mb, which broke my sync function. Have you tried version 1.1.1? Does that fix things for you?

Rickgsx: There is no "App" for you to find, you have a new sync-provider in Android System Settings=> Accounts and sync.

Does anyone have feedback/feature suggestions for me?
