Facebook Contacts not syncing

[elderlypunk]

Hi,
I recently switched over from an og Droid to the commando... love it so far, have it rooted and debloated... but I'm running into the issue with not being able to add a Facebook acct and sync contacts... I checked Google, and it seems that Verizon is doing their usual tap dancing act... I was wondering if any of the big brains on here have figured out a fix? I saw this previous thread but it petered out in July. Thanks!

There is one fix. Go on facebook and manually add everyone into your contacts. Thays currently the only fix.

You tried doing it from the fb app?

Yeah. The problem isn't the FB app, it's something to for with the commando's version of android contacts or accounts, I guess... What I'm referring to is the ability to go menu->accounts & sync, then add my Facebook acct there. .. then you should be able to choose "sync with existing contacts" and have your Google contacts also show Facebook profile pic, etc when you go into Contacts menu. That's how it worked on the Droid 1, but with the commando it only does that with twitter, not Facebook. If I try to add my Facebook acct it first starts the DB app, but then acts as if the acct was never added. It just goes back to the accounts menu... Apparently Verizon says it's a
"known issue" (aka they can't be bothered). Other than this I really like the commando so far, it's just this one annoyance. ..
