Running ComRom 2.1 and have had same problem. SyncMyPix didn't work for me, but I did find a workaround.

I downloaded and installed 'Phonebook' from Market. It is a contact replacement app. I logged into Facebook through the app and it matched my existing contacts and it automatically downloaded their Facebook pictures and replaced all the Contact pictures.

Now when I go back into 'Contacts' all the latest Facebook profile pictures are with the contacts. And the photos also appear for incoming calls and text messages.

Hope that helps.

You gotta go into facebook settings. And then select, "Sync existing contacts with facebook contacts". The names have to be exactly the same as well or else it won't sync automatically. Otherwise you'd just have to link it manually.

Go into market and search "syncmypix"

It takes all the pictures for contacts you have and uploads them to Google contacts

Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App

1) Go into your Google contact
2) Select menu -> edit
3) Menu -> join
4) Profit

You are 100% correct. I disable the facebook app from syncing. Then I re-created the SNS facebook sync, and joined my contacts again. Everything shows up.
VZW: Theres a map for that.
