Help HTC Desire Facebook Contacts

Hi

I have my Facebook Account Sync'd with my HTC Desire, but I have a problem. Before, I could just press the sync button on my phone and everything would sync and refresh (Even the contacts on my phone... and when I mean this, I mean the picture on their contact changes, when they update their picture on facebook) but now, when I do that, the picture will not update. Why is this? Is there a way that I can change it so that when I do refresh the Facebook Contacts that are synced with the contacts on my phone, their picture will change?

Thanks in advance
 
The only way I've been able to get Facebook pictures to refresh / update regularly is to have the account set to auto-sync. When set like that then the photos will update very often.

Unfortunately if it's not on auto-sync there doesn't seem a way of doing it. Even doing the occasional manual sync won't sort it, pictures just won't change.

I'm set to auto sync at the moment but I believe it's the cause of my ever decreasing internal memory size. I don't think HTC sense handles the link to the Contact records very well and wastes a lot of space. Certainly in the past i've gained a couple of mbs when deleting all contacts and then just reimporting the vcf file and syncing that up.
 
I have my phone set to Wi-Fi only, so when it does auto sync, will it use Data? And how can I set it to auto sync?
