Contacts Issues: Gray Triangle on Photos and Facebook Integration

[nrz74]

I'm trying to clean up the default Contacts app that came with my HTC One mini running Android 4.2.2 with HTC Sense 5.0.

Problem #1: On every contact photo in my Contacts app (except "My profile"), a small gray triangle is showing up in the lower right-hand corner. Is there any way to turn this off so the full photo is visible?

Problem #2: Even though I've disabled Facebook sync in my Facebook app, the "My profile" contact in my Contacts app is still showing my latest Facebook posts. Is there a way to remove this from here as well (it did successfully remove it from my other contacts)? I don't need Facebook using mobile data to sync something I'm never going to look at from my Contacts.

Thanks!
