Same result in my Nexus S.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] reddv1:
What rom are you running, I made this for stock 2.3.4 deodexed it won't work on odex.

I can make one specific for your rom that works, just send me contactsprovider.apk.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 93ae8074:
Ok, there is the problem, I'm using stock 2.3.4 no deodexed.

I'm attaching my ContactsProvider.apk, thanks!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Jonathon Grigg:
Switch to deodexed, you will run into issues if you try and change things on odexed roms. No real differences if you use a pure stock with root deodex :)

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 93ae8074:
Done, working fine now!

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] housry23:
Will this fix work on Sprint version deodexed stock rom? Gonna make a nadroid and try it out, but just hoping someone had tried it already for me.lol

Update: worked(sort of)! Some of the Facebook Pics are showing in my contacts and some aren't, but if click the contact and there I have a choice to view Facebook profile. This and one of the many Facebook pics sync apps on the Market should do what I want to do. Thanks for sharing the fix.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jdmoore81:
Anyway we can take the odex one from nexus one so I can keep things completely stock
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jdmoore81:
But u would need the apk and odex file and just push it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] reddv1:
You can't do that, odex files are phone specific. Your phone will boot loop or fc.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] SpoonerPS3:
So will I be able to link my contacts an calendar apps will sync Facebook events with this?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jdmoore81:
Anyway to do this if you are on stock.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] reddv1:
NV deleted post
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theallian:
what exactly does this do? just photos? or status updates as well?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
It just restores the same functionality that existed in 2.3.2 and earlier. Basically allows the Facebook app to sync photos with your contacts.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jdmoore81:
Can someone upload nexus one 2.3.4 contact provider apk and codex file
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jdmoore81:
Odex
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
I ended up getting the same errors too on a fresh install. Here's how you can get it to work. Do a fresh install of 2.3.4 and DO NOT flash the Facebook fix. Boot in for the first time, set up your google account and let it sync your google contacts. Once that's done, reboot into recovery and flash the Facebook fix. It will work like a charm.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] iboj007:
Are you on completely stock? Rooted or unrooted?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] iboj007:
I tried updating through recovery by having the facebookfix.zip file and then using recovery to flash it... it wouldn't install saying signature verification failed...

completely stock 2.3.4
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] reddv1:
Turn off signature verification in recovery before installing. The option appears after selecting 'install zip from sdcard', select 'toggle signature verification'.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Moshie07:
Anyway to get this to work on non deodex? If not does it work on any deodex rom?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] iboj007:
I didn't have the option for "toggle signature verification" I am unrooted and original stock odexed...

Any way to get this done without rooting or installing another rom?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
You have to use ClockworkMod recovery. It won't flash with stock recovery.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] iboj007:
OK totally sounding like a noob here, but rooted and installed clockworkmod. Then I went and flashed it and it flashed but now i'm having the issue that i keep keeping the force close for google services framework.

Any idea how to go back to pre installing this? or to make the FC go away?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] reddv1:
Delete contactsprovider.odex from /system/app using rootexplorer to stop the fc. If that doesn't work I'll post a zip to flash to revert back shortly.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
This may sound dumb, but is there anyway to generate a similar fix that will allow the FB sync without the facebook app using the SNS Sync from the Galaxy S devices? For example, the Epic.

I pushed the two SNS Sync files from the Epic to the Nexus S 4G and after rebooting it did allow me to setup the sync account and is claims to work, but none of the sync data ever actually shows up.

Two reasons that I ask:

1. I don't use the official Facebook app, but still want to sync FB contacts with full data (not just pictures)

2. This one is lame and I feel lame posting it, but SNS Sync kept my own contact picture in sync too. Not hugely important, of course, but nice.

Anyway, this worked so well on the Epic and I didn't have to keep the FB app installed just for sync'ing.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jdmoore81:
Can u post the files u used
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
Me? Well, I restored them from Titanium backup, but I believe these are the APKs unless I am being retarded.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
This FB sync crap is the primary reason that I just run my original 2.3/GRH55 firmware as a daily driver. It has good colors, FB sync, and I have never had any problems with it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
Attached here are the 2 APKs from the Epic 4G Gingerbread/2.3.4 leak. Not sure if that helps any.

They seem to almost work already... if push them and set the correct permissions and reboot Facebook is now an option for contact account creation. It logs in, configures and syncs successfully!

The only downside is that the contacts don't appear anywhere. The account does take an "appropriate" amount of time to sync, not instant like it isn't doing anything.

It makes me think it is some kind of file structure or db location issue.

Anyway, would appreciate help if anyone is interested... I'd consider compensating for a working solution.

I would just rather not have the official FB app on my phone and I already have a contacts front-end I am happy with (but it doesn't do any additional back-end functions).

Thanks in advance... I won't bring it up again if no one is interested, lol.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] reddv1:
For the contacts to appear you'll probable need the contacts apk from the epic installed also.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
Yeah, I might give it a shot... Not sure if that crosses the line into piecing together too many things from outside the phone. Nothing that can't be fixed with a backup restoration of course.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
I'm just starting to test this now, but here's a new app that seems to have just been released:

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.watto.program.android.sync.facebook&feature=search_result
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
The problem with all of WATTO's sync apps is that they don't give you the option to only sync with existing contacts. If you use this, you'll instantly see that every single person in your Facebook friends list will show up in your contacts. Annoying when you have 200 friends. ;)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
I don't mind it... I hide anyone without a phone number.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] haphazard1:
I have tested this app too and it seems that it needs alot more function when it updates contacts. :rolleyes:Maybe somebody here can mod this app to be alot more better.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
In what way? It seems to sync every possible detail as far as I can tell.

The only bug I found is birthdays register as "Event". I reported it and the dev confirmed and will fix it.

Has been perfect for me otherwise.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
Dev has already uploaded a fixed version for the Events/Birthday issue and emailed me about it.

Super responsive and is still working perfectly.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] haphazard1:
When u press on a updated sync section it does nothing. Its does a good job in adding all the contact info from facebook mobile but make it linkable to facebook mobile in the differrent parts it syncs i.e. I press it then right to facebook mobile.

:cool:It needs that mod love that xda can offer to it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
Strong disagree, my favorite thing about this app is that it only does what it is intended to do, nothing more. Too many apps try to do too much and fail.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
Just FYI - Looks like he added this functionality to today's update, you can now sync only existing contacts.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
Yeah he and I were going back and forth about that. Awesome that he added it!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
He seems like a nice guy and obviously very on top of the support/dev work for his apps. This version is MUCH faster as well.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] haphazard1:
Just tested the app and their my be a few kinks in it still. I did the only contacts thing and not all my contacts got updated even after updating all my cantacts emails.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dmarden:
Just report it and I am sure he will fix it quickly... not sure what he does for matching (name/email/etc).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Roscopcoletrain:
yeah I chose only existing contacts and it brought in all my facebook contacts. doh. not what I wanted.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] haphazard1:
I notice that the app has change its name to friends sync or fsync now and its no longer on the market too. Whats up with that?:confused:
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] cadguy:
Search friends sync from Watto on market
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] haphazard1:
Did that and its no longer listed now u have to go to the web site to download. When search watto studios only 8 results come up and friends sync is not one of them.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] cadguy:
Weird I can see it.

Anyway I've had to uninstall, getting massive battery drain, over 50% of the total
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mafu6:
great app just missing a few contact pics and not linking some of my google number to my facebook ones, hopefully bug fixes soon
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] cadguy:
Any Facebook sync fix for stock ICS?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mikeyinid:
Sure is. I added it in my aosp ics builds posted at rootzwiki. Romanbb was nice enough to share the hack.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] cadguy:
Do you mind sharing? Is there an update.zip available?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mikeyinid:
No. Its Built into my rom. But the fix is posted for devs to implement into their builds. I'm sure it'll start popping up.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AndroidUser00110001:
Just added it to my build here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1397358 :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Azuske:
So can anyone create a update.zip for the people that just want to apply the fix to their current rom?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
It's not that simple.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AndroidUser00110001:
Would be easier and safer to just switch to a ROM that has it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] anishs:
I read the procedure to do this, I just don't understand what to do with a couple of the files. Would someone be able to make a tutorial for this?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] oldblue910:
You have to modify the files before compiling. Once you have a working ROM, this setting cannot be changed. It has to be baked into the ROM.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] reddv1:
What changes to the source are needed to get Facebook sync to work?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Andrew421:

[Dell Streak 7] thorswitch:
I'd posted a few questions I have on customizing my Streak 7, but have continued looking for information from other sources as well. I'm finding a number of "How to Root" guides, but I can't tell for sure which would work on my Streak and which wouldn't because the version/build numbers don't seem to be matching.

The unit I have is a WiFi only unit I purchased thru Amazon. It has Android version number 2.2.2, Kernel 2.6.32.9 and Build 15799.

* Most of the instructs I've found appear to apply to units that came with 2.2.1, and are either "Pre-OTA Rooted Stock ROM," "Pre-OTA Unrooted Stock ROM" and "Unrooted OTA Stock ROM." Since my unit came with 2.2.2 already installed, it doesn't sound like it would fit into the "Pre-OTA" categories, but since it didn't get an OTA upgrade, it doesn't look like it would fit in the "Unrooted OTA Stock ROM" option either. Am I misunderstanding the different classifcations? If not, does anyone know where instructions for rooting Streak 7 that came with 2.2.2 already installed?

* The primary reason I want to root the unit is so I can get rid of some unwanted pre-installed programs and so (hopefully) so I can assign default browser and email programs to the buttons on the "email/app list/browser" widget at the bottom centre of the Home screen. Once I have done those things, is it possible to then re-root it? Or will it just stay unrooted until the next time the unit is upgraded? If/when there's another upgrading to the Android version, will the programs I deleted still be deleted, or will I need to do that again?

Thank you for any assistance you can offer!

You should make a nandroid dump, all the previous roms are modified nandroid dumps.

Also if you somehow delete something important you can recover it without having to contact dell
[Dell Streak 7] Hellzya:
get fastboot working and flash clockworkmod recovery. Dj_steves rom is based off 2.2.2 and has all the crap removed as well as some kernel goodness. 2.2.2 has yet to be rooted manually. you have too flash one of the pre rooted roms. good luck
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] appelflap:
The Galaxy Tab 1 (7" Tab) dock works like a charm with the new 10.1v tab. You have to some "customize" it a bit with a saw :-) but in the end you get a great dock. After the right customization (pic 2) the fit is nearly as perfect.

The dock is recognized by the tab and it launches the clock app. Charger and audio output works flawlessly.

EDIT1: Pictures:

(Tab with dock)

(Customized 7" tab dock)

EDIT2: I tested the 1080p HDMI output. The port is working, but somehow the software has a big problem with a hdmi connection. I got some spontaneous reboots, so... no it isn't working "out of the box" . Will do some more experiments later
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DarkAura82:
Sounds good. Please update once you have tested. How extensive were the modifications? Can you post pics

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] appelflap:
Updated the first post with some pics and the HDMI test results. The modification is not that extensive. You only have to cut out the sides of the backplate of the original tab 7" dock and the sides at the left and right.

With a picture of the original is should be easy to infer how the modifications have to be done. If not, just ask and I will add a little drawing.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] adamthemountain:
thanks for the pics and info. would appreciate hearing about either your success or failure to get a hdmi signal out.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DarkAura82:
Going to try to get one to test this weekend. Who knows maybe I can help with the HDMI problem.

Just to confirm this is also recharging your 10.1v

Sent from my 10.1v using the permuim app
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] appelflap:
Yes, it is charging the 10.1v The charging adapter of the 7" Tab has exactly the same specs so it is also perfectly save.

Must confess, did little experimentation with the HDMI output. Will do some more tests when I have some time.

Btw, Samsung is known for the fact that they ship their devices with tons of software. It's strange that on the 10.1v there are nearly any special Samsung add ons. Maybe we have to wait for the 10.1 to get more software support, also for HDMI.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Kevincod:
Maybe its in my head, but I feel like the 10.1v adapter charges my tablet twice as quick as with the 7 version (with dock)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] duncan_mccloud:
Was wondering if the same can be done with the official 7 inch keyboard dock. They are bound to come down a lot in price and would be a lot cheaper than an official 10.1 version.

hello

i have bada phone "samsung s 8500" ,and need help with remove or repair imei code....

please, any ideas :confused:

:)
[Bada Software and Hacking General] mylove90:
i thought adfree would respond to your question so you thank him

anyway yes you can do it as i think but do you know the old imei??

you can change it using PSAS with qualcom drivers

here is a quick link for the tools you need

http://www.mediafire.com/?yahd09ptzv3ubir

and here is a tutorial for beging the connection

http://www.samfirmwareworld.com/s8500-can-work-with-qualcomm-tools-t199.html

after connection you will find the imei let us see if you can do it :D
[Bada Software and Hacking General] gomez79:
thank you for reaction :)

but, Unfortunately, I do not know the old IMEI ... : (
[Bada Software and Hacking General] tydem:
The phone's original IMEI is located on the sticker below the battery, at least on my unit.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] xsycox:
why change? stolen handset?
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
There are good reasons to protect IMEI.

Protected by Law... depend on country...

Manufacturer...

Operator use IMEI to block handsets in their networks...

Yep, also stolen handsets can be blocked or identify...

On the other site, big business with IMEI change...

Sometimes user erase IMEI during Unlock or other manipulations... result is IMEI 00000000...

I've only read long time ago. That in India ... :

http://techchand.org/333/reactivate-blocked-chinese-mobile-phones-in-india-imei-inplantation

I'll NOT support IMEI change...

Best Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] mylove90:
sorry adfree i didn't see this coming

i think he just want to fix it back to its default

i won't refer to your tutorial again without your permission

please forgive me

you mean so much to all the users right here and specially me :)
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
@ mylove90

No panic. It's not your fault. :D

I mean 99,9 % not expect answers from me about IMEI (and Network Unlock).

Because tooo much trouble.

I'm from Germany.

I have no idea about other countries law.

But I'm pretty sure that NOT every one who need IMEI repair is an thief.

Also Software accident can lead to IMEI lost... or some Firmware Modifications, or some Commands... or Tools...

I have no idea, why manufacturer not really protect IMEI. Maybe 1 Chip for IMEI, not eraseable... for instance like oneNAND and RAM in Samsung CPU, but only not rewriteable. Also funny. IMEI on removeable Label...

Harhar. :rolleyes:

There should be a SE LiveView Forum. I bought one when they first came out and it was pretty boring because of no developement. I picked up a new phone and thought I would have another go of the SE LiveView, dig it out of the draw and found out there are some pretty cool plug-ins for them now.

When searching XDA it seems like users ask questions in other sub-forums. I think it all should be in one forum for easy access and help support this little dude......... :)

And there is currently no forum site regarding it, so it would be good to get a head start.
