Is there a way of backing up the Photo Contacts settings and pictures? It annoys me a lot having to reassign all the pictures after a hard reset/restore.

after several searches, all I have found is 3rd party software suggestions, or no answers
I had a little play, i.e. I took a picture of myself using the contacts option and assigned it to my contact. Sync'd and checked the file sizes etc. 352*288, so I thought, ok, I'll manually resize etc all the photo's I have of my contacts, and painstakingly assigned each photo to the contact...
Here lies the problem...
The photo I took of myself with the Universal is fine, stays as 352*288, however all the manually added ones from external files get resized to a very small res
As a test, I saved my assigned photo from the desktop outlook, copied it to the universal, and manually added it, it then became a rather small image
I've had a trawl through the registry and have come up with nothing.
Before I take the plunge and use Photo Contacts Pro, anyone managed to get the photo's a decent size... heck... 352*288 will do fine, it's darn better than 72*72 :shock:
Strangley enough, I can assign any sized picture to the desktop outlook, but pocket outlook ignores it completely, if I then assign a picture to pocket outlook, it over-rides the desktop outlook :|
After i synced my facebook account with my phone, it added all the pictures for my contacts, and replaced my outlook photos. Is there a way to remove the pictures and disable the picture function? i tried to search but found no help
don't know if it help you... Go to contact card, hit "edit contact" and when in edit mode click picture of contact. You will have pop up menu with options to use:
Facebook, outlook, album or no picture
Is it possible to do it all at once?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't believe so.
When I check my gmail it syncs my contacts updates but then makes contacts pics on my phone low quality. Why? Anybody else with this problem?
Will it still do it if I upload pics from my computer to gmail then let it sync to my phone?
I keep my fav contacts pinned so when i scroll down it just looks like pics from a vga camera lol
unfortunately, this is the problem with contact pictures at gmail... for some reason when your phone syncronizes with your gmail account the contact photos are reduced in quality by google (I don't know, maybe google is saving on their server space? i really have no idea why) the only way to keep good quality contact images on your phone is to enter them into your phone each individually and store them under 'phone contact', not 'gmail contact'...
I have way to many #'s to do that lol I will just disable google syncing contacts until a fix comes or if I have to.
I had a few contacts that show their pic but that's it.

So...How do I add a photo to a contact? I've tried going into the gallery and setting the contact photo, but none of my contacts show up. What am I supposed to do?
