Picture Contacts Blurry? - HD2 General

So I took some pix of my friends and decided to save them to contact list. But i've noticed the picture is pretty blurry when they call me as the picture pops up. Is there a way to make the pictures in contact list brighter?
Thanks

I had this problem before when I was attaching the contact pic using outlook, then syncing to the phone.
But the blurry picture problem disappeared after I transferred the picture onto the phone's memory, then manually attached it to each contact (ie Open Contact List > Edit Contact > click on the silhouette on the top right hand corner > Open Album > then tap on the picture... That then gives the option to adjust the sizing of the picture..
Hope this helps

thanks so muchhhhhh

Finally fixed
I also had this problem, but now I finally found a way to fix this.
Install outlook 2010. Outlook 2010 has the automatic option to attach High Res contact pictures.
So what you need to do is:
- Install Outlook 2010
- Add your contact pictures again, and Outlook will put the High res version into your contact.
Good luck!!

If you sync will Google, then there is no fix. If you sync with Windows Live or Outlook (like mentioned above) you should have high res pictures.

my contact pics are linked from Facebook profiles.. does not seem to look blurry in my case..

contacts pictures

i found that the contacts pix are too small,
does anyone know a way to enlarge those, thank you
Even i find the same issue. Theya are thumbnail size. Anyone on this?
What resolution do the caller images have? So i can start converting my photos.
In the TV Series "Knight Rider (2008)" the Xperia displayed the caller photo in full 800 x 480 but i guess that was just a trick for the TV show if you think the photos are to small...
contact pictures
Pictures are not just small but all are blurry.
Any ideas?????
if you sync with outlook how do they look there?
i got all my pictures from facebook contact sync with outlook
and my pictures look the same in outlook as on the x1

Facebook contact as display pictures ??

Hi,
I finally got some of my friends phone contact to sync with facebook. I can see a little small picture of them in contact, but I don't seem to get the picture to display when I make a phone call. Am I missing something or can you make their facebook picture as dialing display picture by clicking on something ?
Thanks.
Mine does it, I log into facebook through my contacts and it puts all my facebook contact friends pic as the contact pic in my phone.
1) Hit people tab
2) all people
3) 3rd icon should be facebook (updates and events)
4) know tap on Me/ My Updates
Thats how I do it and it works flawlessly. GL.
It should do that automatically. Have you tried with more than one person? I'm having a similar problem, but only with one contact. Works fine for the most part.
When you go to edit contact info, press their picture in the top right and you should have the option to set as facebook picture.
maybe its a manila 2.5 issue. I will try the same thing with a 2.1 manila rom and see if it will sync properly with the display picture when dialing.
Mine is also doing the same thing. It displays the picture under favorite people and in the contact list, but when making or receiving a call it does not display the picture. Im running ark666's rom
I have the same problem with Leo rom running sense 2.5/maxmanilla
I thought I was doing something wrong. I am running art666 Rhodium AF as well.

I will report this on his thread and attach this link to the post as well. Thanks everyone.
it works fine for me, but i have a problem, that whenever a contact changes his picture the picture isn't changed on my phone....i can't find anything to update the pictures.....i tried also to remove the pic and then to add the facebook link again, but i always get the old picture...
i forgot to write that i use the original HTC WM6.5 rom
for the most part the pairing to facebook pics work fine for me, however i've found that some of my facebook friends aren't available when i search for them to link to their contact info. there are about 30 friends on my facebook that for some reason aren't available to link. i'm using the tilt 2, stock ROM. any ideas?
I also have this problem
I found out that the dialer instead of using the picture from facebook, it uses the picture that is on the winmo default contacts...
Does anyone knows a fix to display only the facebook picture instead the one that's on the winmo contacts??
well i had this trouble but i updated my rom and backed-up my contact using pimpackup. it backups the contact and sets the current (facebook) picture as outlook picture. then you reinstall the backup file which will delele all your pim and install your contact with their default pictures as outlook thus end any dialer problems you're having. you should call and see their the picture you had
Hmm, I always use PIMBackup to backup and restore the contacts, and always have the default pictures from the outlook. But what I want is that facebook pictures become the default ones...

It is built in to HTC sense. If you go to all people and then slide over to updates and events then log into your FB account
Ohh, I have the TP2. . . can I download a program that will do this?

You could try this, remember to read the whole thing first
I don't have an issue with the pictures, but stuff like birth dates. For some reason, when I sync contacts with FB, I get their birthdates and with a FB logo next to it. All well and good, except the birthdates won't pop up on my calendar, making it practically useless.
Now, if I type in their birth date manually it automatically updates the calendar.
Anyone know how to fix this?

Stop Facebook auto photo saved in HTC Sense 2.5

Reason: (if you really want to know)
I really like the facebook and sense's people integrated feature. It helps me update birthday, phones, and my friends recent news. However, I do have most of my friend's photo on my outlook. I really don't need to save 200 extra pictures in my windows' drive. Beside, sometime my friend's profile picture are kind of random.
Help needed:
Any one know how to stop the photo update from facebook to the people contacts? A reg. tweak or something? Or just a want to select multiple contacts to use outlook picture? In sense 2.1, after the facebook linked your friends, a window pop up and you can uncheck the saved photo box, then facebook would not overide the saved picture you have. But this feature seem to be missing on 2.5.
facebook picture
you can override the facebook picture in sense 2.5 edit the contact then click the picture and choose, facebook, or outlook contact.
Thanks but I have more than 160 friends
Thanks for you suggestion, but you know I have more than 160 friends to update. And if I have to do that every time I upgrade a room. I am doom.
please someone help
Double this request! I was about to open a thread in despair...
I have 20 FB-connected contacts. Not a big deal one would say - change them manually. But if one takes into account that i flash almost every other day (yes i like to play with builds and upgrades) and everytime i have to go through this 20 pics... Ahhhh!!!
Getting mad everytime this stupid manila feature replaces neatly prepared and assigned photos of outllook by it's tiny meaningless photos (in some cases just mess-up madness!)
Please, please help us to stop facebook messing up with contacts

Sharper images on contacts in favorites tab?

It seem some of the images I'm using for my contacts are very dimmish and low quality, yesterday when I had SPB MS installed (I hard reset my phone today) I edited my contacts in there and then they showed up awesome in Sense also.
So what can I do to fix this?
I get much better contact picture fidelity if i've linked them with facebook accounts. Any existing picture I had of that contact is replaced with their current facebook picture, is automatically updated and is much better quality.

Assigning photos to contacts

I just got my S8 today. On my s6 I was able to easily add photos to individual contacts. However I cant see how to do this on s8. I have read online about opening the contacts app, selecting edit and press the camera icon. But there is no camera icon. All edit does is allow me to edit the contact name number and email address.
What am I missing here? How do I add the photos on contacts?
You click on particular contact name: you'll see 4 icons with rightmost being details: click on that, big camera is above the name: click on that and you'll have camera on to take picture you can save. I have not figured out how to pick pictures already taken from gallery yet. If you imported contacts from your old phone, older pictures should transfer as well.
I created a folder that has all my Contact picture headshots in it. The only was I got this to work was to copy the actual photos directly into the Gallery folder. You cannot copy the entire folder. At least not for me. When I copied the entire folder over, Gallery did not recognize it. When I copy and pasted all the individual photos, it did not recognize them until I rebooted the phone. At least then it recognized them. I was using Exchange for Outlook. It keeps overwriting the locally attached profile pics or something was causing them from going from large photos to small ones . At the end of the day, I ended up going back and attaching photos on my laptop thru Gmail and then having Gmail automatically sync those with my phone. Make sure you have Gmail selected under Contacts. The only other issue I am trying to solve now is to find a Caller ID program that shows large contact photos on incoming and outgoing calls.
1. Select photo from Gallery
2. From options menu select Set as contact picture
3. From the contacts list choose the contact
4. Crop the photo
5. Press Done

Go to contact, click edit then *click on contact picture. Under the camera mood there are cartoon characters in boxes select the yellow flower with a white background on the buttom left hand side click it. It will take you to your album where you can select whatever picture u want to save as the contact picture. I hope this help I just did it. Wish I can post a video on how to. Bye
