New user Android question, regarding pictures for contacts - Legend General

Hey all, new HTC Legend owner here and am absolutely loving the phone, but jsut had a quick question. I went into gmail and assigned some contacts (since I sync from gmail for contacts list) some pictures so our SMS chats would look pretty. And they do look pretty, but I can't figure out how to assign an avatar to MYSELF.
What I mean is, take a look at this chat message I'm having with a friend

She has a pretty rose for her picture but why do I look like a seuxal predator?? How do I change that!!
Thanks in advance all!!

Mine was like this for a while then it suddenly just started showing my avatar try resting your avatar in Google then force a re sync. Mine only started showing once I changed my fb image so give it a go

I don't use stock messaging app (I don't even have it installed), but I can tell you that handcent has option to add your picture.

Like this one, you now all the time witch account you have. ;-)
Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english.

I think this is a great idea, I can not fix this by myself but it will be wonderfull when someone can fix this thing.
Maybe I have misunderstood your question but I already have the Email account name shown for each seperate account?
I have 2 active accounts in use at the moment - BlackBerry and Emoze?
See screenshots - they are both clearly named and its easy to identify which I'me previewing?
Hope this helps? If I have your question wrong can you please explain some more?
.
Both screen prints are correct...Blob's shows things in his Inbox (along with the account name), while Ddriver has his account with nothing in his Inbox (which will not show the account name). My inbox is always active (and running 6 email accounts). For me, this is a non issue. I could see how this could be troublesome with a bunch of empty accounts though.
Good luck.
Have no one a jdea how to make this?
Thanks for interest.

Preview problems on the Mail tab of Touch Flo

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
I had sync the entire mail through Outlook.

Sorry, I can't help. I thought that Outlook would not show the "Click to view message", but actually show the message instead. Perhaps if you try to sync NOT Outlook, but set up your email in another way? I have Blackberry Connect and it is the same as yours currently is. I would love a fix to get a proper preview for it too.

Unfortunately, even I sync my mails through Windows Live Apps, it doesn't show the preview too.
Think it depends on the sender "mail client etc" as some of mine show and others don't... Something learned to live with

Sending for repair... But wheres the ticksheet?

Hi All,
Been on phone to HTC this morning arranging a repair collection for tomorrow a.m. Received email from them with the packing label to print out but the email always says make sure I fill in the ticksheet.. What ticksheet?
I think they've missed an attachment in the email.. although the email they sent renders very poorly in everything I've got to look at my emails :S
Does anyone have a copy of this ticksheet they refer to ?
Thanks
every ticksheet will be different as it contains details about your case in particular.
get back onto HTC to get them to resend it
cq.
Apparnetly they can do without it as they'll know what your phone is there for by it's serial/IMEI number.
Best get onto them here: http://contactus.europe.htc.com/wFrmMailLogin.aspx and ask for one to be safe though.
For reference, it looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks everyone, I've got onto them hopefully they'll send one in time, if not I'll just include a letter containing whats on the ticksheet anyway, so that should be sufficient.

Any Idea where to find...

1.I need Calandar widget, like HTC have.
Something like this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Need a photo image widget ? When I select the widget Picture Frame, they just open the galary, but i dont know how to post all the album to the one layer of my home screen.
For example :
I went from HTC Tattoo, to Motorola Milestone, and i Really miss this cookies
Thanks for helping me!
Greetings from Slovenija
For the calendar you can try Pure Grid Calendar Widget. For the photo image widget, I afraid there is no proper replacement for it though. You can try searching around the Market under the search terms "Photo Frame". The first one on my search list seems to be quite popular and nice.
Thanks alot! First I know that is something like pure calendar, but i find pure calendar widget, the grid is right!
Thanks !
But photo frame, first called photoframe free, dont supp. widget

Missing widgets

Hi!
In several videos, one can see two widgets that I can not find on my Xperia Arc. Where can you find them?
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks
I'd also like a widget like the second one you've posted which appears to show your favorites.
There was one included on my HTC which I guess was part of Sense, but there doesn't appear to be one included on my Arc.
I also can't find a full screen calendar widget like I had on the HTC. Can anyone suggest one ?
Thanks.
me too ....
Jorte is a good calendar app and has widgets of every size!!.. and photo contacts widget off the market might give you something close to what you're looking for.. that said I've recently started using life.contacts from SE developers - also off the market, which I like a lot.
For contacts, you could try this one from SE:

It could be some beta widgets that didn't make the final cut... or widgets coming in another update...
