I am running a bone stock 6P and when I add contacts in my phone I cannot add a contact picture. I hit the edit button on the contact and it asks me to take photo or choose photo which will then bring up the camera or my photo album but every time I select a picture and hit ok nothing happens. Any idea's?
I am the only one with this issue?
Probably. Works for me.
idk but I suddenly have the same prob.
Yea this problem was faced by me too in my Galaxy Grand duos... The problem was letter resolved when I got a stability update.. Check for a system update. Maybe that'll help.
The only solution for me so far has been to log into my Google account on my pc and add the picture to the contact there.

Anyone else got an XDA IIi?
Has it got Photo Contact installed. I've just got a new XDA IIi and the manual makes referance to a program called Photo Contact works with caller ID and displays a picture of the caller. Its not installed!!
Is this normal? Do I have to buy it?
Thanks

Photo Contacts
You should find the software in your programs folder its a little slow in finding names though
Photo Contact
Thanks PUBSUK.
I've resolved this now. It appears that non of the O2 software was installed on the XDA. I had to peform a hard reset to force the apps to reinstall.
Now its there as described in the manual.

when i click on my "Me" contact card and try to set a pic for it, a menu pops up "Album" and "Camera", when i click album, its says no pics available...but i have alot on my sd card....anyone know how to do this?

Going the facebook profile picture works, the other options don't work (known issue on Hero)
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.
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.

Hi,
First if am in wrong forum thread do tell me.
I am using HTC Wildfire on CyanogenMod 7.1.0.1-buzz
All was ok however I had synced last night with my gmail account and suddenly the "ME" has changed.
As in when I go to SMS and send anyone a message. the message shows as "ME".
The ME is showing image of one of my contacts n not me. if I press it for a while it should give me options of "call" "open contact" etc. It opens that person contact not mine.
However all the people are getting messages correctly. Its just in my own message box it is bit awkward to see someone else photo as "ME".
Any ideas?
Sounds like something got confused, have you synced your contacts recently?
Also try just swapping your pics back round just go to edit, then select the pic frame and then pic the correct one
