Welcome to Android Central!

When you go to settings, accounts, Facebook, are the sync options turned on?

Log in with facebook and turn on Sync option.

But how do you get this option to permanently save, as it turns off the sync every single time I restart my phone or it restarts itself automatically?

After trying a few things, I was finally able to fix it. Regardless how many times I uninstalled/reinstalled the version of Facebook on Google Play, I kept dealing with this error. Once I fully uninstalled that version, and installed the one from Amazon Apps, it now works perfectly without any issues, and continues to automatically sync my contacts no matter how often I restart my phone.
