From my understanding, even though there is an option to sync Facebook with the phone it will not sync contact photos, status updates, etc. I believe it has to do with Google+ competing with Facebook for social media bragging rights. Don't quote me on this though. For my wife it will sync contact photos, but not status when you view a contacts info. For me, I never got it to sync on ICS and still can't after flashing JB. The workaround I use is an app for $0.99 you can buy called HaxSync that does all of the integration for Facebook and does it real well in my opinion. Plus it uses hi-res photos so they look crisp and clean instead of pixelated like some do with the built in Facebook integration.
