I've flashed about 2 ROMs now that claimed to allow the facebook sync and they haven't worked lol can anyone direct me to one that actually does work and they know first hand? I'm going to look into that busybox editting text file business now in the meantime.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Lol Hino, what ROMs have that actually working? JB ROMs at least. I've tried just about all of them and I didn't have numbers from Facebook on any one of them.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
Do you think you could link me to the ROMs that actually have the Facebook sync working properly, or link me to a thread that walks me through how to use busybox to bypass this stuff. I've honestly tried everything and searched since you posted this and nothing I can find works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gagb1967:
I don't think there is any that works the way you want, sorry. Is a fb issue. If that is a must have for you, maybe you will have to try another phone.... a shame
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Custom ROMs often have Facebook sync hacked into them. You can't do this on stock if you need full contact and number syncing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
Can you please tell me which ROMs i can install to have this done ? Can i install that ROM and then export my contacts into my computer and revert to stock and import them again? or will that not work either? even so what is the custom rom i can use, i've used tons that claim it but none perform it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
I thought that too. If you go to "Contacts" your fb friends show up, no numbers or other info though. Nothing in "Phone"

Sent from my BAMF Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
You tried to export them? There must be a way once you do get the contacts synced to save them into the phone and not just under the synced profile that way you can export them. I tried to export them off my other phone running gingerbread and put them onto my Gnex but it was a no-go the file i extracted had 0 bytes for some reason it just didn't want to export the contacts at all.. Was hoping it was still possible but I suppose its not
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gagb1967:
This is from Facebook site. Only option I found for you, would be to export them and add them to Gmail.

http://m.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150091734742206&_rdr
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
I guess there is no way to bypass this at all. I checked that out and the extension is deleted and with more research apparently this used to work until facebook updated their coding so it doesn't work anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gagb1967:
Then I guess you have to go through manually input in Gmail. I guess is a one time thing. You can link the rest of the info and nd pics with haxsync if you want to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tvdang7:
i just got this phone and noticed this aswell. that is retarded that my G2 has the option to sync contact # built into the app but when i use an official google phone the option is taken out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
1) htc works around facebook and google not getting along

2) the sync removal was done in android 2.3.7 i believe

3) blame facebook
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tvdang7:
well i had ics 4.0.4 rom on my g2 and in the facebook app it was there but the setting to sync is not on the Gnex, so it must be a specific phone thing or maybe its jelly bean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
refer to point #1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dulanic:
Try "Facebook contact sync" from the play store. All of my Facebook contacts show in my dialer on jb with it. Unless I'm misunderstanding.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gagb1967:
I don't think it pulls phone numbers and birthdates from Facebook, and that is what the OP is looking for. what Facebbok Contact sync does, is pic and basic info only
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
Precisely, I've given up on it now lol but still interested if anyone does have a solution or knows a ROM that can help me out. My LG Optimus G2X could sync on the cyanogenmod 7 (GB) for it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LNJ:
The latest CNA 3.3 has FB sync working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
would it be "nooby" for me to ask whats CNA lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LNJ:
Codename Android. It's in the dev forum.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
Confirming that fb sync works in cna. Such a badass ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Nah lol. CodeNameAndroid. ROM available for download in the vzw dev section.

It has phone number sync working?

Sent from my BAMF Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LNJ:
The thread in XDA directs you to where it can be downloaded. But here it is. Just go to the sub-forum of your device and download it.

http://codenameandroid.com/forum/

I think the site is overloaded at the moment with the amount of downloads.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
Thanks everyone, now I just have to wait for the servers to go up to download the ROM :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LNJ:
He did a simultaneous release for all variations of the N7, Xoom, GNEX, and Nexus S. So you can imagine the traffic.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
confirmed that the ROM does indeed allow facebook syncing

edit: the rom doesn't include a music player it seems, does anyone know what a really good free one is that works on the lock screen. I tried rocket player but it makes me unlock twice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
Friend sync does it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] buzzcomp:
Try ttpod, it has built-in lockscreen if you prefer (optional).

Go to www.sammobile.com, download a stock firmware and flash through Odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tefanym:
i really don't recommend downloading a stock firmware now, coz of this hard brick thingy, u can just flash a kernel . tar like siyah kernel and then entering recovery mode ( vol up + home+ power ) and wipe cache and data/fatory reset and dalvik cache ) then download a rom.zip and put it on ur external sd then install it via install zip from sdcard in siyah kernel recovery u've already installed
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
It's only the new 4.0.4 firmwares that you have to watch out for. And I believe it only gets triggered if you do a factory reset / wipe data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] guillermo1996:
I would like to wipe the sdcard storage, but I don't know if it's possible...

I have a gsm galaxy nexus, rooted, unlocked, not official JB Rom, with the last version of CWM.

I'm worried because of the clockwordmod folder, which contains the backups (which I don't want to save). Is this folder necessary for the program to work?

If there's no problem, is there a way to do that in recovery mode?

Of course I'll do that when changing new Rom, just to avoid apps problems.

Sorry about my English.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jss2:
you don't need the clockworkmod folder on your internal sdcard for CWM recovery to work on your phone. If you wipe the sdcard, you'll lose any back-ups, but the recovery will work fine.

Within CWM recovery, go to "mounts and storage" and then "format /sdcard", and that will wipe it.

edit to add:

while this will wipe your sdcard, there is no need to format /sdcard before flashing a new ROM. as long as you wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache, you should be good to go to install a new ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] guillermo1996:
Thanks for the answer. I know I don't need to wipe sdcard, is just that I have installed so many apps, and there are a lot of folders (the app Sd Maid don't clean everything) that I don't need, and I would like to clean it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vagitarian:
Anyone having any issues with this app? I'm running SynergyRom 1.6 and noticed today that clicking on links in the app does nothing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lexluthor:
Yes, the app is a POS. It's like it's a browser to their web site not a native app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vagitarian:
Is anyone having issues with the app that is just running stock?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] amebiasis:
On stock rooted no problem here just a little laggy, but that's because this apk sucks in general for what it is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Master_Tak:
I actually sent feedback through the NFL.com site and had a short email conversation with (presumably) one of the devs or customer service or whoever is running things for NFL.com Fantasy. They asked if I had downloaded the 2012 app which I replied with a yes and then described my problem with being unable to click links and that I thought it was sort of a shoehorned effort that looked like it was just pulling info as if it was on a browser and not an app.

The guy was nice and seemed to acknowledge my problem (even with my message title being "The fantasy app is terrible") and then apologize since they're still relatively new to it (3 years he said)...don't know how far it'll go but hey at least they're open to feedback? Maybe if enough people message them through the site they'll get the point better since they haven't updated the app since the beginning of the month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] amebiasis:
Yea i was disappointed in the apk. This is my first year using them my league for the last 8 years used cbs and the NFL website is much nicer but the apk is worse than cbs i thought and cbs wasn't exactly great itself either I'll try shooting then an email too. I did notice i joined a 2nd league through them and i had to sign in and out to get the apk to refresh and show the new league.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vagitarian:
Yea I used the app last season for fantasy and had no issues. That was on a rooted incredible with a custom rom. So not really sure what the deal is this year.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ianflo:
just wanted to jump in here and say that I'm having the same problems on my gnex and my gtab. both running custom ROMs and can't click on anything within the app.

to make matters worse, the mobile site won't let me click anything either unless I long press and open in a new tab.

possibly the worst experience I've ever had.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dan4877:
Same here, app worked fine last year and now its buggy and slow. Was on a different device last year though...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ianflo:
thought id report back with what ive found.

it looks like running an adblocker (adfree or adaway) causes the buttons to become unclickable. Disabling the adblocker gets the app to work for me again.

I'm trying to find the proper hostnames to add as exceptions in adaway but am having no luck. anyone happen to know??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vagitarian:
I can confirm that disabling my adfree also fixed issues with the app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kevc2181:
Same here with my SGSII, I disabled ad blocking software and it works fine now. Guess NFL.com is making us see the adds or the app won't work...

---------- Post added at 06:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------

Being more specific: I was running adFree. Installing the app alone won't work. If you're using this app, use the "restore hosts" button before you uninstall it. Or keep the app if you'd like, just remember to restore hosts file before you run the Fantasy app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gPhunk:
kevc2181 you are the MAN !!

You sir, are a scholar AND a gentleman. This is EXACTLY the problem I have had for YEARS! I had suspected adfree so had uninstalled it but still couldn't click on any of the links. Re-installing, reverting hosts, then uninstalling again was the ticket. Now I don't have to hear the "dude why did you do a freaking NFL.com league again their app blows...." Thank you again!!! :good:

I noticed as well some changes in device id's . Make a backup and flash this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1778010 see if your adb doesn't again work just out of curiosity

Edit: some have complained about not having adb access after flashing JB but this I believe only existed on windows on Linux that should not have become a problem because of static drivers.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmntone:
The problem seems to be my Thinkpad. I have no idea what happened to it considering USB mass storage mode and fastboot work perfectly fine. I've now plugged the KF to my desktop and I can see my device and am able to send commands via adb just fine. That's weird.

TESTED AND PROVEN IN MY LG OPTIMUS 2X

1.-Back up the file etc / vold.fstab

1.5-Access using an Explorer to access the root file system (I use ES Explorer)

2.-COPY FILE vold.fstab modified in root / etc / (you must have root access)

3.-Overwrite

4.-Restart device and Voila be changed in order the reports, the phone will believe that the internal is external and vice versa and heavy applications like games be copied directly and entirely on the external and internal memory can still be used as the additional memory Yeah!

It cost me awake all night trying figuring out combinations, but at last I got my first post I hope to serve many users who until then we saw we limited to 5GB of internal memory of our LG O2X when you install applications mostly games next -gene

Know Issues:

-Dont Work USB Mass storage, information must be copied by removing the memory card and access it through an external card reader

-If you replace the memory card you have to restart the terminal for the correct recognition.

NOTE very important to first install the browser with file root access and backup the original file vold.fstab if you want to reverse the process

(My LG is Android 2.3.4 stock rom with clockworkmod recovery)

(Sorry by my poor ENGLISH of Google =) )

PROBADO Y COMPROBADO EN MI LG OPTIMUS 2X

1.-Hacer copia de seguridad del archivo etc/vold.fstab

1.5-Acceder mediante un Explorer con acceso al sistema de archivos root (yo uso ES Explorador)

2.-COPIAR ARCHIVO modificado vold.fstab en root/etc/ (hay que tener acceso root)

3.-Sobreescribir

4.-Reiniciar el telefono y Voila se cambiaran de orden las memorias, el telefono creera que la interna es la externa y viceversa y las aplicaciones pesadas como los juegos se copiaran directamente e integramente en la memoria externa y la interna la podremos seguir utilizando como memoria adicional Yeah!!

(Me costo toda una noche en vela averiguando probando combinaciones pero al fin lo consegui espero que mi primer post sirva a muchos usuarios que hasta entonces nos veiamos limitados a los 5gb de memoria interna de nuestro LG O2x a la hora de instalar aplicaciones sobre todo juegos next-gen)

Fallos conocidos:

-No funciona el acceso directo a la memoria via USB la informacion adicional se tiene que copiar extrayendo la tarjeta de memoria y acceder a ella mediante un lector de tarjetas externo*a traves de un PC

-Si vas a cambiar la tarjeta de memoria tienes que reiniciar el terminal para que la reconozca correctamente

-NOTA: muy importante instalar primero el explorador con acceso root y hacer copia de seguridad del archivo original vold.fstab si quereis revertir el proceso

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dictate:
8GB Nexus 7, stock, locked. Picked it up to start using it today, and the touch screen was unresponsive. Turned off the screen, and the screen would not come back on afterwards. Held down the power button for 10+ seconds and the device rebooted, however it was stuck on the X boot animation.

I then proceeded to reboot the device into the bootloader, and via fastboot, unlock, reinstall the boot loader and the factory image, then reboot. From there, it was still stuck on the boot animation. I tried both JRN84D and JRO03D, both with the same effect.

Am I boned here?

[Nook Touch General] glowco:
I have a feeling the answer is 'no', but is there any way to darken and/or further enlarge the font on the Kindle App running on a rooted ST (Glow)? I don't find it very readable.

I do realize I could convert the Kindle books to epub format as an alternative - just wondering if there is an easy fix.

Thanks.
[Nook Touch General] glowco:
My update:

I've made progress on how to convert Kindle books to epub format, so that is probably the ideal. But in situations that require me to read in the Kindle app, I've found that the white on black Night theme is significantly more readable for me.

I remain really surprised that the Kindle fonts are so much less readable than the Nook ones. Go figure.
[Nook Touch General] trimalchioinwestegg:
That's what I did as well, with Calibre and the Kindle DRM hack. Having the app be readable would be ideal, though, as we lose syncing capability.

If you're in a pinch, set the Kindle app to black with white text. That's a little easier to read in my opinion, but I still wouldn't want to spend much time in that app.

The problem probably has to do with resolution.
[Nook Touch General] glowco:
Yes, I set myself up with Calibre and have been converting them.

The font in the Kindle app is just not as dark and clear, and seems smaller to me. The white on black is a help when needed.

[Nexus 7 General] slixzen:
So a trick (I actually found out on accident, and I am not sure it is fully publicized or if it is fully used) is booting the device into safe mode.

When you are in the device, hold the power button down as if you are wanting to power the device off. Now, instead of tapping the Power Off button, hold it down and it will prompt you to reboot into safe mode.

Again, sorry if this is old news, but this is the first time I have seen this.

If you're not having problems with the RCs, you shouldn't have problems with the stable. If you do, that's what the bug tracker is for.
