Android FB Integration

So I added my integrated my Facebook account to my Android phone via Settings->Accounts and sync. Now I expected there to be some interface/method by which my FB contact pictures would be integrated with my phone contacts. But then I didn't find any such interface and found out this whole process was supposed to be automatic. But now after a day of internet access on my phone (wifi), I can see only 2-3 out of about 100 contacts with their FB photos and statuses.

How do I integrate them all?

I'm kind of curious why there isn't an interface to manually link the contacts with their profiles since their are many people with the same first name in my friends list, and how would Android know who's who.

Depending on your ROM you should be able to manually link your contact with Facebook contact by going to Contacts > (Contact name) > Edit Contact and then press the menu button to show "Link" or something along those lines.

On an earlier version there was a "link" icon at the top of each contact's details page.
