Answer 1

It doesn't work for contacts that are synced from FB only. You'll need to use the FB graph API and fetch the photo from there; and you need to know the contacts facebook name.

 Bitmap contactPhoto = getImageBitmap("http://graph.facebook.com/mathiaslin/picture?type=square");

 final private static Bitmap getImageBitmap(String url) {
    Bitmap bm = null;
    try {
        URLConnection conn = new URL(url).openConnection();
        conn.connect();
        InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
        BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);
        bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis);
        bis.close();
        is.close();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        Log.e(TAG, "Error getting bitmap", e);
    }
    return bm;
}
