Help Ways besides using Friendcaster for Contact Pictures?

[calikisses]

First, do you ever think they'll allow FB to sync to the phone?

Second, is there a way besides using Friendcaster to upload/sync contact pictures? I hate Friendcaster...

Thank you!

I don't think so.

Google and Facebook had a little spat about contacts a while back. Google didn't like that Facebook doesn't share contact information to be exported (i.e. into someone's Gmail account) but then Facebook wants to pull contacts out of Gmail into Facebook. That's why they pulled Facebook sync of contacts on their Nexus phones (I believe starting somewhere around the Nexus S launch, though I never had one so idk for sure.)

I did it the old fashioned way. I built contacts myself and for the contact pictures, I went to facebook, chose a picture I liked of the person, and chose Set As, then made it that person's contact picture. I tried Friendcaster and didn't like the low-res pictures. Plus it added people I didn't really want in my contacts list anyway.
