I can only sync ~52 of my contacts pictures, even though I have hundreds. Is this an app ou Google API limitation? Any way to overcome?

There shouldn't any such limitation.
What do you experience when only 52 contacts are synced, does the progress bar get to 100%, or does the syncing "freeze"?

I think I know what the problem is. Some years ago here in Brazil, all cell phone numbers were added an extra '9' (area code + 8 numbers were not enough anymore). I'll check if the problem is actually this and if positive send a PR with a fix.

Yep, that was the problem. I'm sending a PR with a fix for Brazillian numbers.

edit: succesfully synced 320 contacts now!
