In order to sync your Facebook profile pictures to you contacts you must install and login to the Facebook app before your add your contacts from your SIM card. It seems that when the phone loads the contacts from your SIM card to your phone is when it sync's the profile pictures to the contact name.
Or you can separately connect each name to an FB account

How do i upload my phone contacts to gmail???
i have gmail synced but my phone contacs are not getting uploaded to gmail. the addresses from gmail do come to my phone.
but my contacts are being uploaded.

When you select edit contact if it shows as 'Phone (PC Sync)' then that means it wont be synced with gmail. You need to upload the contacts in csv format to gmail via a PC and then enable contact sync on the phone.

In contacts, filter the view to only show phone and sdcard contacts. One of the menu options will export contacts to sdcard. Once that is complete, import from sdcard will prompt you to chose phone our gmail.
When you create a contact make sure to select gmail contact at the beginning. That prevents any problems in the first place.

Do you want to sync Facebook contacts to your phone and then merge with Gmail contacts on your phone? If yes then do the following...
1. Sync Gmail contacts to phone.
2. Sync Facebook contacts using haxsync.
3. Download contact remover root to merge Facebook contacts to Gmail.

For some reason not all of my contacts are showing up in my default mail app but they are showing up in the contacts app. Is there an extra step I need to take to get them all synced? Fyi, the only contacts database I am using is through Google.
Hi All,
Looking for a solution to an issue which is bugging me...
Linking contacts in the phonebook to the facebook contact, displays their picture on your contact list - great!
However, if you then log out of facebook, the phone breaks the connection and you lose all the pictures.. and have to go through and manually connect the contacts again.
Is there any way to actually IMPORT the pictures to the phone contact, so it doesn't lose them when you log out of facebook?
Or any other work around?
I like an organised, uniform contacts list!
Thank you,
I downloaded an app called "Facebook contact Sync" from the play store instead of using the facebook app's way. Works flawlessly, only thing is you have to rename your contacts to their facebook profile's name.
And if you log out of Facebook do the pictures stay?

when i sign in my facebook account on my phone it asks me wether to sync all facebook friends, sync only with existing contacts or don't sync, i choose with exsisting contacts,but facebook syncs with all my friends from facebook even some without numbers. And all i want with the sync is for my friends to their facebook pictures, but they don't. How to sync my contacts to have pictures?
I join the contacts manualy. From Contacta. One by one. Select contact, menu button, join contact.
