------------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Shazron Abdullah)
> iOS 6 Facebook Linked Contact Problem.
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-2422
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2422
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: iOS
> Environment: Present on iOS 6.
> I'm using Phonegap 2.2.0.
> Reporter: Michael Marchment
> Labels: contacts, facebook, ios, ios6
>
> I've just written an app that uses the (undocumented)
> "navigator.contacts.chooseContact", which when a contact was selected, would
> pull their id, displayName & phoneNumbers and arrange them nicely into a
> table -- BUT! I started to realise that I wasn't adding every contact.
> "console.log(contacts.length + " contact(s) found");" would tell me a contact
> was there and that there is a contact being chosen, it just (for whatever
> reason) chooses to ignore the phone numbers and spit out an error. If I
> remove "for (var j=0; j<contacts[i].phoneNumbers.length; j++) {" and any
> reference to calling, say, "contactsPhoneNumber =
> contacts[i].phoneNumbers[j].value;" and calling "contactsPhoneNumber", the
> function will work! (Code is identical to that in the Phonegap documentation)
> The issue happens when a contact is automatically linked with Facebook.
> Facebook doesn't always syc phone numbers to the contact as some people don't
> put them up, but it will syc it with contacts with matching names to friends
> in your address book.
> For instance, my sister's name is Jessica in my address book but her Facebook
> name is Jesska so there are 2 contacts in my address book. Phonegap will only
> insert Jessica, not Jesska even though both have the same phone number.
> Using native code is not my forte, so I thought I might just bring this up
> here and see if people are having troubles with phone numbers when doing the
> same thing and perhaps someone who knows native code well could come up with
> a solution for the next release of Phonegap... If you follow :)
> Thanks all,
> Michael.
> Update: After writing all of this out and double checking to see if it
> worked, iOS put back in all of the facebook info. I just deleted the linked
> facebook contact permanently and it worked for that contact again.
