1) download the official facebook apk from the market and sign in and there will be an option to sync all ur contacts pics.
2)also u can do it the following way after installing the facebook apk, go to accounts and sync in settings, add account and select facebook and then sync.....
I've got the contacts from Facebook that have a mobile phone number entered on their profile. Easy and nice.
What about the contacts in my phone that have a Facebook profile but not added their mob info to their profile?
Is there an app to link those Ki d of contacts?

Go to your contacts and click on the friend you want to "join" to the facebook contact. Edit and press the menu button. Now you'll see "join" and touch that. Now pops up your facebook friends that match.
Awesome. Its going to take a while but glad they are now joined.
Any reason why the contact picture displays with such bad quality when making a call?

You can use gmail sync in your settings to put your contacts in your phonebook.

That's the best option right there. Assuming you have been keeping your gmail contact list nice and clean.
I have been trying forever to get the contacts on my phone (synced to my google account ) to sync up with my facebook friends. It will only sync a select few for whatever reason I cannot find. Any tips?

I had to manually associate each Google Contact with the correct Facebook contact. I did it through the built in "People" application.
If memory serves correct, you open a contact in "People" and it should show a broken link icon. Click on that and you can select the correct FB contact. After you select the FB contact the link icon changes to a "connected link" icon.
From there it should auto update status and pictures accordingly.
Ah I am using an AOSP rom so that might have something to do with it.

Is there a reason that when you slect a contact and choose any of the options History, Activities or Media.... nothing ever shows up under those menus?
I thought it was supposed to sync with your SMS and facebook and show recent messages, sttus updates, etc.? And I do have my contacts synced with Facebook.
is this a breoken feature when running a custom ROM? Or am I just missing something?
Thanks for any info!
Anyone on this??

You have to sync with the integrated facebook sns and not through the facebook app from the market. If you go to add account you will see facebook under the integrated accounts header.

I am synced through there as well. As, even if I wasn't linked with facebook, I should still be able to see call and text history with my contacts... that's not showing up either. Thanks though...
Anyone else?

same question here.
i have disabled facebook syncing from accounts (after linking my contacts) but still the pictures get updated once they are changed on facebook
remove the Facebook account from "Settings > Accounts & Sync" ?
Yes, remove facebook accounts from accounts and sync then restart phone. Check your contacts again if it still has the facebook photos of your contacts. You can add the facebook to your sync account after the problem corrects itself.
What I did is some work but I went manually into each contact that Facebook changed and choose "edit". Touch the picture on the top left corner and choose the Google account for picture source then save changes. I'm sure it changed all of Facebook contacts but I cared about only 6, who are in my Favorites...

The phone replaces Google contact pictures with Facebook ones when you make a certain change in "People". It also replaces Phone pictures with Google or Facebook ones. I'm not sure it does this when ANY change is made to People, or just a certain one (like changing an unrelated contact picture).
It's an annoying bug… I doubt it can be fixed properly :\
Thanks for your replies, deleting the Facebook account in Account & Sync doesnt work as when u run Facebook it asks you for your login info & then just recreates the account...Changing the pictures manually back to google photos works until a resync happens then they get replaced with google ones again...

This method works... as I had the same problem, the only problem is it takes time, if you have lots of contacts.

Good info, Thanks
I logged out and logged back in on my Facebook account on my One S, and now my Facebook contacts aren't having their birthday displayed.
This had happened right when I'd begun using the phone too but somehow, until now, it had begun, and was displaying Facebook birthdays.
Is there any toggle button anywhere ?

make sure your app is sync correctly and dont forget to display the facebook on your contacts.
How do I make sure it's syncing "correctly" ?
Other Facebook stuff like "view Facebook profile" is displayed once I open the contacts. Just the birthday missing.

Have a look in settings then accounts and you should see facebook there.
Everything - Calendar, contacts and live feed is checked.
There is no other setting.
You have your birthdays displayed ?
