As many people are starting to realize that HTC using the Facebook App for syncing purposes is not working out very well. Is there any way to bake in the old style Facebook for HTC sense for updating status and contacts?

I have my Facebook app set up to sync every hour and the last sync was done at 5am and now 4 1/2 hours later it still shows the last update done at 5am....

Mine is working fine on his latest. Dunno what to say guys, sorry. Getting the old version from Sense 3.0 is probably never going to happen. Different Android versions, way different Sense versions... These two things make it nearly impossible, or hard enough that a dev would rather spend that amount of time working on their rom, not pictures syncing. Usually, different Sense/Android versions don't play well when you mix them together; the components don't even recognize each other. Sense only likes what ships in it, not previous or newer components. Did that make any sense?

Well as of right now my last sync was still 6am....I am on Viper so maybe that is the issue. I will go back to a stock Rom tonight and see how that goes.. If I remember correctly I didn't notice this as a problem until I started flashing Roms

6AM again...Its not the rom..Stock is doing the same thing as Elite...No matter how soon you have the Facebook app set to sync it does not trigger the main sync of the phone...can anyone else confirm 6am was their last auto sync?

I'm wondering if this is intentional. Update every 24 hours? I guess I can live with it but it just doesn't seem right. Shouldn't we be able to choose?

It should sync based on the interval we choose or else why let us specify?

But really we can't specify.. I know the Facebook app let's us set a sync time but I don't think that goes hand and hand with the built in syncing the phone does.. Otherwise we should have an option to change the intervals at settings>accounts& sync>Facebook

    When I was on Stock De-Odexed Facebook seemed to sync contacts and Friendstream just fine. On eLiTE it has issues. I don't know why this is the case since they both have the same base.

    Yes 6am was my last auto sync. However I have not lost the Facebook contact pictures like I was getting on eLiTE.
