You can request a direct URl which contains your Access token:

URL MyProfilePicURL = new URL("https://graph.facebook.com/me/picture?type=normal&method=GET&access_token="+ Access_token );

Then get a decoded BitMap and assign it to image view:

Bitmap MyprofPicBitMap = null;
try {
    MyprofPicBitMap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(MyProfilePicURL.openConnection().getInputStream());
} catch (IOException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e.printStackTrace();
}

MyProfilePicImageView.setImageBitmap(mIcon1);
