When I initially set up Facebook, I can set it to sync info for all of my Facebook friends. This works fine and pics are displayed in my contacts list.

However, if I then add a new person to my friends list on Facebook, their name appears in the contact list of my phone, but their Facebook pic does not.

The only solution I've found to this is to remove the Facebook app from my phone (which also removes all Facebook contacts), then re-install it, sign into Facebook, then choose the option to sync all again and this will sync all contacts including their pics. It's a bit of a pain to do this every time I add a new Facebook friend though.

I tried using the SyncMyPix app, but it overwrote all contact pics, even ones where I'd set the pic manually and I don't want that. I only want it to download a pic if the pic is missing in my contacts list, but there's no setting to do that.

Anyone know a way to fix this? Thanks.
