Contacts suggested when sharing from gallery - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hi guys,
When trying to share a picture directly from the Gallery App my S7 edge automatically makes a suggestion of the last 4 contacts I was talking too. Is there any way to disable this? It's really irritating

[Q] Facebook pic on contacts

First of all, sry if this is posted somwhere but doing severall search and nothing come out.
Sync Facebook to contacts, and Galaxy is doing some weird things to the contact pictures picked up from Facebook, shrinking or expanding to fit the total resolution available.
Leaving ppl with a really strange look, either to thin or to large.
Even in Samsung app Friends Now is happening the same. Or if you had a shortcut of a contact to UI.
My question, is it possible to prevent SGS to Stretch/Skew this pictures...?
Thanks in advance.
Strange to see close to 100 views and no one claiming to have same issue.
If someone as same problem pls reply.

It fits the images to a certain box. That is how it works.
Dont know anything more helpful. Anoying yes but I havent really thought about it
Same here, images get stretched to fit the box. Annoying indeed. One fix would be creating a local contact and linking it to the facebook contact, then download a picture from the facebook site and add it to the local contact. That way the local picture will show up. I wish the phone did this automatically though.
Also, how come there's no "set as contact picture" option in the browser or in Facebook S? Cmon, it's a must feature!

[Q] Contacts and Facebook + the logo

Hello, everyone!
I've owned the Wildfire for a bit over a month now. I really love the phone and all the features and the possibilities. Also this community has been very helpful in resolving a few issues I've had so far.
Yet, there's one annoying little thing, that keeps catching my eye almost every time I make a phone call. You know what I mean - the Facebook logo in the corner of the contact's profile picture. My question is: Is there any way to remove the Facebook logo from the profile picture of a contact without removing the picture itself or unlinking the profile from Facebook?
Cheers!
If the picture of the contact is taken from one's FB account, then no, but you can add a picture to that contact independently from FB (from camera or gallery), without unlinking it.

Blurry contact images

OK, this is really a general android question but I'm asking it here because other solutions I've seen on the web seem to be for specific phones/versions of Android.
I've just recently bought the G2 after spending almost three years with an iPhone and I absolutely love it. But I was stunned to find out that one of the old issues that drove me crazy about Android still exists. The blurry contact images when someone calls. I've googled the net and read a lot about it and I can't seem to come up with a fix that won't be too time consuming. I've found apps that will sync hi-res photos from facebook but they stop there. I have a lot of work contacts that are pulled from LinkedIN and I don't want to ignore them. I'm also not interested in getting pictures of everyone I know and manually linking them with some third party app that will overwrite the pixelated 96x96 google profile picture. So....what are you more experienced Android users doing for this?
i had all my contacts backed up in google and i am coming from s4, even pictures taken with s4 and set as contacts come blurry, but worked fine on s4, the only think i tired which worked from me is to edit the contact by selecting the same picture if you have it on your phone and they come out fine in g2 contacts, odd

[Q] Can't Restore/View Google+ photos in Gallery App

Hi All,
I'm a newbie but a long-time follower of this site, so please excuse me of any ignorance. I tried searching for my issue but didn't find anything relevant, hence posting here.
I have ATT Stock Samsung Galaxy S4. I have one primary google account(A) which takes care of apps downloading, gmail etc. I also added another google account(B) mainly to manage my Photos. So, whenever I take new photos, I have instant upload/auto-backup for this account B. My sd card just crashed couple of days and I have formatted it and it's all good to go now.
Now, I am looking for ways to see all my google+ photos of Account B in my Gallery app since auto-sync is turned on. While it shows up everything in Google+ photos app, I would prefer to see everything in Gallery app. I tried changing "Content to Display" in Gallery settings to show Picasa as well Device photos, but it keeps showing account A's picasa web albums and not account B.
I am really tired of looking everywhere, so I'm hoping one of you could patiently help me.
Thanks!

Sync Gallery with Picasa

Hi!
I bought a new S7 Edge and I got a problem.
In my note 4 Settings->Account->Google there is an option to sync with picasa but in this phone I got a lot of options but not that one and I cannot reach my albums from the default gallery, to access my old pictures I got to use google photo whitch is the worse gallery app I found.
Does anyone know how to enable the sync option?
thank you very mych
Picasa is no more. Google Photos has replaced it. See here for details: https://picasa.google.com/
I use an app from the play store called "tool for Google photos and Picasa. It works a treat for viewing my Picasa web albums.

Tnx for the replies but why I got the Google Photo Sync option under google account in my note 4 and its not available under S7? Is there anyway I can add it?
tnx
