Has anyone been able to facebook and contacts to sync properly?

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.

Go to All Apps> People> Menu> View. You can choose which contacts show.
Also, within the facebook app, once you sign in, hit the menu key and go to settings. I thing theres a setting for contacts there also.
Thanks for the response but it didn't work

You can go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All> Scroll down to Contacts storage, tap it once and select clear data. This will clear all of you contacts, so back them up first if you want to keep them for later use.
try settings>accounts & sync> fb> uncheck sync. then next time you log in on fb app click don't sync or only sync existing

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.

Problem with setting Google calendar on s3mini

Hi guys,
I have a problem with setting calendar on s3mini.
I can connect and synch the account but the problem is that my work callendar has number of locations (for booking purposes) and to what's going on on the day I have to tick check every single location to be able to see it.
I also have HTC one and this problem doesn't occurs. I can go to 'submenu' of the calendar and then tick check all locations I want to be displayed if I tick check the 'master' account.
I know it sounds complicated to understand so I'm attaching screenshots from s3mini set up and from HTC one
If you look at the HTC one calendar app it recognizes that rooms belong to main account and I can disable/enable everything by just checking that account .
On Samsung/ Google calendar app I have to check/uncheck all boxes every time I want to change what I want to be displayed.
Thanks in advance for help.
