In tattoo, when I open messages and some person, I can see his picture (If he got one), but I see myself as unknown... How to put pic for myself?
Open your contacts app, you'll see the very first entry is the one called "me" or "myself" or "I" (don't know, since in German the Tattoo calls me "Ich"... ). There you can customize your appearance by a photo and other stuff (address, email, blablabla)...
tnx alot! Else couldnt find this...

I was wondering if their is anyway that i could Put a pic on all the Contacts i call the most or the ones saved in the Today Screen. What i mean is like Having a pic of their face instead of just saying the name.
Any ideas?

Use PocketCM, it gives you the pictures that you want, a new intercface adn it's extremly skinnable.

if you are using outlook for you contacts just go down to edit then change photo
if you go in to the contact list...find your contact...and then edit their information, there is a section that says "Picture"...just click on it and choose a picture you want to have show up for that specific contact.
Is anyone else having an issue with contact pictures becoming distorted? If i add a picture to the contact, the first couple of them are alright, but as i start adding some more they all become distorted. I just got my phone over the weekend and this is the only issue i'm having.
sorry should have searched for before i asked. it seems like it's a g-sync problem from other threads. has anyone found a solution for this? i don't really see anyone saying they found a fix, just talking about the problem
Just create a new contact using the same name as your existing contact. Under contact type, select Phone. Assign the picture to that contact and save it. Now open the contact and hit the Link button on he top right of the screen. You should now have nice crisp contact pictures.
Firstly, I'd like to apologise if this has been touched up on before, I did a search but couldn't find much.
Secondly, I've been reading the forums for a while and thought I'd register as to seek help for my little problem...
______________________________
To put it simply, I have all my contacts stored in my Gmail account. After installing Wildpuzzle, I decided to clean up my contact list to make my phone a bit more organised.
The problem, is that when I receive a text message (SMS) from anyone, it does not show up as their name in my Messages app. It simply shows the full number (inc. international dialing code) with no picture and no name.
For example, let's say I save 'Bob' in my Contacts list as: "07123456789". When I receive a text it does not show 'Bob's name, only "+447123456789".
Now, if I was to edit 'Bob's contact card so it was stored as "+447123456789" then it does show his name.
Has anyone else come across this before? I don't really want to have to go through all the phone numbers in my Contacts and put +44 in front and remove the 0.
Thanks in advance.
Its a known bug, has been posted in the wildpuzzle-thread many times. But if you have all your numbers on gmail-account its pretty easy to put "+44" before the numbers on each contacts, it took me about 10 minutes, only having like 90 contacts, but anyway, not that hard to fix with a little time =)
Yeah, I had a feeling that this was the case due to the lack-of-response from people.
Anyway, got bored at work so I changed them all now. Bit of a pain in the arse, but you have to make these sacrifices for such great software
Hello everyone I have tried searching for this but cant not find it. the one link that I did find returned a dead page.
What I am asking today is in reguards to CyanogenMod 7 and messaging. I text a lot and find it annoying that the "Me" in messages does not have my picture in it. Before I went from stock everything to CM7 I had the ability to edit me contact card and this allowed my pic to display for my messages sent. But now I can not find out how to do. I was told to do Settings > Call Settings > Additional Settings > My Phone Number but I do not see additional settings.
While it is not a big thing it does annoy me as my OCD kicks in and I see received pics of the contact but an android bot as my pic. Can anyone help me out with this.
BTW here was the dead thread link

I'm not sure if this is the right way or what, but it's pretty easy. Just create a new contact using your own phone number. Name the contact 'Me'. Then select a picture of yourself to set as the photo for the 'Me' contact. Save your changes. Your picture should now appear in the text mesaging threads as the Me contact.

I will try this to see if it will work, but that will last till my OCD kicks in when I try to make my contacts look better LOL.
Will post back if it does/does not work.
Edit- Thanks k2buckley that did it. Appreciate the help with that. But having "Me" in my list will bug me in a bit I am sure. Stupid OCD LOL

It should work. I use that method on every AOSP rom I've ever used, because I also hate seeing the blank spot on the 'me' contact. Should work no problem.

My text has my gmail picture....I think I uploaded it to latitude once and it got associated with gmail.
Anyhow, you should be able to add a contact pic to your gmail and it will show up.
My phone also has the same picture in my contacts where I have put all my information for myself. I didn't associate it with this contact, so it must be done through Gmail.

This 100% works.

That is how I did it as well. Works great.
so i just looked all over the net trying to find this but is there really no way to view pictures like a normal human being from the stock message app when their are multiple pictures being received??:silly: instead of it putting it in the stupid slide show making the pictures smaller and not zoomable unless you save them.
I know even if you just receive one message with text then it also goes to the slideshow view. Just try to tell your friend to only send one picture at a time
