Facebook overriding Google contact photos

[hwengerd]

Is there a way to make Google the default contact photo for my contacts? I have about 10 contacts out of 330 where Facebook continually overrides the Google photo that I have set. Other contacts that I have connected to Facebook stay once I've changed it back to the Google pic. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Step by Step - Overriding Facebook-Google photo issue

On your X, go to the contacts app. I'll use the word "click" to mean open or execute, though we don't really "click"

open the contacts app
click on the person
scroll to the bottom
click linked profiles
You will probably see 2 (facebook and google)
while this is hilighted, click your left menu key at the bottom of the phone
Choose unlink
say yes
select which to view
click your return menu key to exit the program (2nd key from the right at the bottom)

In some cases, I chose the wrong one because they were named the same. I simply relinked them, since I was right there, followed this process again, then chose the correct one.

I now have just the right balance of personal photos and profile (facebook) photos in my contact list.
