You need to create a new profile picture (not use one of your current ones).

In the Me tile, tap your photo and then tap it again to choose a new one.

It's the only workaround I've seen that works.

u are uploading a totally new photo to Facebook so obviously it will change. We all know that can be done ,I don't want to rake up the likes for everytime I change my photo so IF u come across a way of changing the me tile pic without disturbing the Facebook profile photo tell us...

My amber update have had the tile working as it should. But it just stopped now. It keeps reverting back to a old picture. If i look at Facebook or Outlook Webb interface I see the new picture. Wiieerd.

Edit: Just came back to life again after 1 and a half day of dead stop.

Same problem here.. tried to change de me tile photo and facebook.
In de me tile selected a photo that already was on facebook.
It change the me tile for a sec and switched back to the previous one.
But one facebook it was changed succesfully.

I removed the facebook link a several times.. somebody needs to clear a cache somewhere :p

I had this problem after updating my 920 to amber. I always use my windows live pic as my me tile, so this is really annoying.
the workaround I had was..
upload a new profile pic inside the Me tile (I checked everything, windows live, Facebook, etc etc) so the pic u want is always the newest in the album, then hide the pic so it only is visible to yourself. you can always choose an older profile pic u want on facebook.

however, this no longer works after I changed my Facebook profile pic yesterday.. ><

I found out that when i choose in de me tile the right picture from facebook again. It stays on. You get a new copy on facebook but i switch that one back on the facebook page. Now only the People hub is note updated

go to people hub then go settings, delete fb account. go out to ur fb application delete it... then again ppl hub, settings, then add ur fb account and download fb again. sign in and ur pf is changed

edit...this is a solution to change ur pf picture but will not update ur fb or ur contacts, issue with MS/FB sync i guess

I had the same thing happening. The solution that I got was to go on your Facebook into your "Profile" album and delete the picture that always appears on your me tile. Then change it again on your "me" tile and it will keep it.
