I just purchased the GS3 and love it! I did a sync with my facebook app and only added with existing contacts but it now shows ALL my facebook friends. Is there a way to fix this? Also the pictures that sync from facebook to this phone are all pixelated and not clear like on my Sensation. Besides that, this phone is awesome! Is there anyway to fix these isses?

Use haxsync app. Its not free but works the best. after install go to settings> account and sync, then sync contacts. When you use this make sure to delete the Facebook syncing so it doesn't conflict with it. You will still find some duplicate with haxsync but not as many and you can join duplicate ones. This is the closest were gonna get to HTCs fb contact migration. And the contact pics are higher resolution.

If you want to use the sync feature through the Facebook app, the only way I have found for it not to add ALL contacts, is to use an older version. 1.8.1 is the newest one I have found where "sync with existing" actually works. Still going to be pixelated though. If you don't want it pixelated I would suggest an app like the one suggested above or something like syncmypix.

I use Facebook contact Sync. You can choose the size of the contact pictures, sync all or only existing, and it's free. It also updates statuses for your contacts.
