Facebook Contacts Profile Pics not updating on Incredible

Just like the title says - after syncing everything with facebook to my current contacts (people) list, the current facebook display picture appears.  However, if one of my contacts changes their facebook display picture - it won't change in the contacts (people) list to the new, current display pic.  Even if you go into the online directories and update the facebook list you get the current display picture in that list but it doesn't transfer over to the linked phone contact display. 

 

Any ideas what I am doing wrong or how to correct this?????

Did you try to manually select CONTACT PICTURE in the menu options / link area? It should be automatically doing this for you anyways.

Yes - just went into that setting and clicked menu then contact photo - pulls up a list of options but the facebook option is still the old picture not the updated current one.  Soemthing else in my settings must be wrong for it to not transfer over properly. 

 

Thanks for the reply - any other suggestions??

I am experiencing the same thing, and it's bugging the heck out of me as well.   I have tried everything and it just doesn't add up.  I know that People is syncing with FB as I am seeing status updates, but I have at least 5 friends/contacts whose photos are not updated.  WEIRD if you ask me.

I have sync'd, unsync'd, downloaded lastest FB widget, signed out of Facebook, signed out of FB for HTCSense, shut-off, turned on..... YOU NAME IT!

 

Will sit tight until someone has a fix.

How do I even sync my contacts with my facebook friends? When I go to Settings -> Accounts & Sync->Add Account and tap on Facebook nothing happens! It only highlights in green while my finger is on the Facebook button but once I release it nothing follows. Is there another way to sync my People with my Facebook friends?

I took it into the store 2 weeks ago regarding this issue.  They did a hard reset...did not fix the problem andit  just reset all my settings.  Still doing the same thing.  Even if I delete the person and redo it I get the old picture.
