Help Facebook contacts updating issue

[Deemy72]

K so I sync my facebook account to my phone and everytime I add someone it doesnt update and when I re sync facebook it still doesnt update.

is it something im doing wrong or they havent fixed that problem yet?

Pretty sure it's something with the phone, I have the same exact problem. It's really annoying having to unsync and resync my account every once in a while, but you gotta do what you gotta do, I guess. =\

yeah I figured it would have something to do with the phone but even when I sync it the contacts dont load

It may be an issue with Facebook. My Updates work fine, my calendar works fine, but I can't get my Facebook contacts to sync at all. BUT that was't always the case.

I had this problem too... but was able to figure it out. I think it's a shortcoming of the facebook app syncing feature.

Try this:
From your contacts, hit the menu button and choose "Get Friends". Then choose your facebook account. It will show the people that were recently friended, or not yet synced.
