Q. Has anyone been able to figure out how to sync Facebook pictures to contacts in JB? Haxsync seems to not work.

HaxSync - 4.x is the new update. The version is 2.3.5 and should now work with JellyBean.

Haxsync ... I Beta'd the new version before release when i contacted the developer...
It also supports Higher Resolution photos so they look as good as G+ synced photos
+1 I can confirm that HaxSync is working w/ JB
No

The app facebook contact sync works.
Haxsync works but must reboot after install. (At least this is how I got it to work.)

HaxSync is also working for me, after a reboot. It's a great solution I think!
Have you guys installed the jelly bean workaround too?

How strange I wonder how that's possible.
I use the 3rd party application FriendCaster and it works well for contact sync.

Hmmm, I have an HTC Evo 3D with 2.3.4 and it can sync my contacts to their Facebook profiles just fine.
I wonder if only HTC phones can do this?
I would like to see this working on our Nexus Galaxy too!

Unzip a 4.0.3 rom take the contactsprovider.apk and contacts.apk and push them to your system/app partition with adb or es file explorer fix permission reboot and try
P.s. back up your contact first and I don't have a gnexus so I can't test but I'm about 99% sure it should

With hi-res pictures or the same as Paul O'Brien's hack for earlier ICS builds? I don't remember hearing Facebook changing to use the Google API

They listed a new Social Stream API. That does NOT mean that Facebook implements this API. Until Facebook makes the changes on their end, it will not sync with stock Android.
I can't add a facebook account in setting->account and sync, therefore I can't sync my contact with my facebook account like Whatsapp. Does anyone have same problem with me?Anyone can help please?
I'm using stock rom 4.0.1, galaxy nexus[GSM].
Sorry for my poor English.
Thx^^

It doesn't work yet on stock ics
So is there any rom that can have this work?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Nearly all have a facebook sync option built in
Another option is HaxSync, a paid app that syncs high res facebook photos

I have flasshed a ROM called eagles blood mod, based on 4.03 and i can sync with facebook. However, i cant see the contact pics yet.
Im on aokp and it shows up
The solution in those roms gives low-res pictures though apparently. You might want to look at the Haxsync app on the market.
Running Vicious Toro V5 JB 4.1 on Nexus. Option for facebook sync is there. But doesnt work?
Any Ideas? fix?
THanks !
It was there in ICS as well. But I'm pretty sure Google still disables the facebook package name in the sync providers apk so it will not work.
Facebook is not using the correct api. If they fix that, sync would work

Facebook sync already works with the Facebook app on non Nexus devices. It's a dispute between FB and Google so Google blocks the katana package name from sync working.
Hi. I know in previous versions of Facebook you could sync contacts (numbers/photos ect)
Does anybody know how to do this on the n4, or a way to import all the contacts photos and numbers?
I have already gone into settings>accounts and set contacts to sync from there but no luck
Any ideas?
Thanks

Ice Cream Sandwich and later versions of android don't allow Facebook contact syncing. My understanding is that this was because the way that Facebook had been allowed to do it in the past was a kludgy system that wasn't the same as the api available to other developers. Until Facebook decides to use the standard api, you have to use as third party app to make it work. I use one that's popular called Haxsync.

+1 for Haxsync
It is fantastic. You can sync your fb contacts - chose to sync those that match a contact you already have, or sync all.
It will also sync your fb calendar events and/or birthdays which I find really useful
+1 Haxsync. It syncs everything you might want and you can configure the sync in many ways.
It's not free though.
User that or Friendcaster for Facebook.

Does Haxsync still work in JB 4.2? If so do you need the app plus the work around?

You need the workaround. If you install just the app, it prompts you on first launch to install the workaround.
Haxsync works great.

i read something about changing de contactsprovider.apk, so facebook kann sync by its own.
Does it work on the nexus 4 as well?
if it works u dont have to use another app, to sync.

Ditto on this.
Dear Galaxy Nexus users,
I was looking in my Contact app for a option to Add a Connection like Twitter or Facebook.
It's been a while that the connections would sync automatically, is this option broken or what?
See attachment for example.
Have you used HaxSync yet...?
This one is pretty good in syncing your contacts with your facebook friends.
