Facebook contact photo issue

jai20 — Thu, 20 Sep 2012 18:43:35 GMT

I've updated my ion to ICS and noticed my contact photos do not sync with Facebook. All the other Facebook integration features are working for me. Nothing earth-shattering but, I like contact pictures and setting them individually will be annoying.

IS the Facebook inside Xperia integration checked? Go into Settings ->Xperia and click on Facebook inside Xperia

Yeah, it's checked. All the individual applications are checked as well. Strange thing is, since my original post a handful of contacts have been updated with the FB profile pic but, only a handful.

Could just be taking a while to sync them. Maybe something wrong on the back end. I would give it some time and see if more show up.

Yes, this does actually take a while. To speed the process up you can open up the facebook app and choose menu > friends. The phone will now look up the contacts and match them with your phone contacts. It still might take some time, but this will surly speed up the process.

I did as you said, opened the Friends page and scrolled through my list. The contact pics are starting to show up now. Thanks.
