Importing facebook birthdays incorrectly

Beitrag von Gast »

Model of your phone - HTC Desire HD (Android 2.2)
Type of connection - WiFi
MPE-version - MPE 1.8.0
Windows version - WinXP-SP3

Hello,

Thank you for providing this software. Everything is working well apart from facebook birthdays. There are two issues:

1. Some of the birthdays are incorrect, these are roughly 7 months out.
2. Some of the birthdays are added more than once (this happens for both correct and incorrect birthday dates).

I think this might be related to the way the birthday is stored in Facebook. On a spot check of 13 of my friends the ones with the incorrect birthdays have the year included on their birthday in facebook, the ones with the correct birthdays only have the day and the month showing in facebook.

In the calendar on the phone there doesn't appear to be any difference between the two types.

I have tried setting up a normal all day yearly repeating event in my phone calendar and that synced correctly (with only one entry being created).

Thanks in advance for your help.

The Facebook-Calendar Problem is known but its hard to reproduce this problem. Maybe i'll need a HTC to do tests myself. Please stay tuned

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I had seen the Facebook being one day out problem but not being 7 months out, so thought it might be worth reporting. Sorry for bothering you with a known issue.
