Hi guys,
Is it possible to change the contact's default picture which you can see below in the attached file to an green android man like in other phones? I am sure it is, I just would like to know how.
Thanks in advance,
Go into contacts. Select the contact. Menu/edit contact. Tap the picture space in the top left. Follow prompts. Save.
Swyped on my rooted MyTouch4G
Well, I know that much, that's not what I meant. I want it to be changed systemwide, not per each contact. Like the one in the attached image.
There is no default picture. The image in the OP post is the default. No way to change that (that I know of). The droid contact pic is something somebody added to an individual contact.

That's incorrect. That is the default when the contact don't have a phone pic on a lot of full sense ROMs. We would have to dig in the contacts apk and change the png for it. Let me look..
OK, its in there. It's called
common_icon_default_avatar_300.png. we'll need the one from the evo, I know it has the Andy avatar. And maybe it's as simple add replacing it and naming it properly

Thanks man. I was going to correct the other person about him being wrong but I was not 100 percent sure. I would think it should just be a simple fix.
Ninja-morph?
I was gone try last night, just got track down the png we want. I'll probably have to download a evo rom and get it there
After downloading 3 evo roms, I found the png needed. Changed em with ninja morph but they didn't stick. Idk
thanks for trying man.

BTW; I specifically stated that there wasn't a way 'that I knew of'. Not a way that would perma stick.
So I wasn't wrong per say. I was simply exercising an educated guess.

It's cool bro. But I was referring to the someone set that as a profile pic part.
Who is brave here?
ADB Push attached Phone.apk to /system/app and let me know if that's what you're looking for.
Make sure to nand or at least save your original phone.apk

K, I tested it on outgoing calls... it's a little too late to ask people to call me.
It's not a full screen pic neither, like OP has, that would require some serious xml edits, and then, people with actual pics would look all stretched, that happened with G1's dialers back in the day. Looks much better then that bogus original pic.
Good job bro, it works for in call. How about the contact default. Without a assigned pic?

Have you tried to clear data/cache in programs settings and then restart the applications.
Menu -> settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> Market/Youtube.

Ohh one thing it would be easier to read and understand your problem and help if you used probar grammar
I don't think people intentionally write in poor grammar. English might be his second language.
Are those two the only programs not loading? Did you try both wifi and network data?

No offence ment to the op by this, I just think you could do yourself a favor and drop the sms language. It aint the spelling but the words that get shorted down to a single letter and the missing punctuation that makes it hard to read and understand. And no i'm not dopey nor dazed, but it is hard to read cuz of the missing grammar.
So did you get any luck on making it work?

That's a different story then... It's quicker for you to spell everything wrong and no punctuation marks... But you are asking for help and it takes people longer to go understand what you are trying to say. Sometimes it's impossible to interpret what you are saying because of those errors or have more then one meaning behind it... If your lazy you are making everyone else work harder..

And of course you force people into calling you out on your grammer pulling focus away from your issue.
Google Now: NO Voice reply or Picture showing up work around.
This is for anyone who cannot get a voice to reply for anything in Google Now (that includes weather), and also for people who cant get a picture for Google Now cards. The reason for why voice does not work is because the languages are mixed in settings. I used to have Google Now as English Canada, but voice as English US. Unfortunately, I cannot use English Canada, so I had to set them all to English US.
This is how I did it:
1. Go into System settings > Language and Input
2. Make sure Language is set to English (US)
3. Make sure Google voice typing is checked and set to Automatic
4. Click on Voice Search underneath SPEECH. Make sure Language is set to English (US) and Speech Output is set to always speak
5. Go into Text-to-speech output. Click on the Google Text-to.. settings icon. Language should be set to English US.
6. Test voice by going into Google Now and asking it the weather. It should reply! Note: For weather, the voice always replies, which is why you should test weather.
7. Click Thanks if this helped
Picture not showing up for cards: This is pretty easy.
1. Go into Google Now
2. Click on Settings>Privacy and Accounts> and check off "Search on google.com"
3. Test it by asking a question that has a picture. For example: "How tall is Kobe Bryant?" The picture should now show up.
4. Click Thanks if this helped
Any questions, just Private Message me. ^.^ or post in the thread.
PS. This workaround worked for me, on CM10 v8 Alpha Preview by FE with the Gapps from OP and Devil 1.0.4 Test3 JB kernel. Also, for pictures, one other user reported that he did not get the "search on google.com" option. Please test it out and tell me if it works, THANK YOU! Also, click thanks if I helped ;D
Feedback please? Does it work? Yes, no? Click "Thanks" if it helped?
tested it, still no pic shown
Thats strange. It works 100% for me on any ROM. If I go into Google Now > Settings > Privacy and accounts > Check "Search on google.com" (bottom blurb says "Using www.google.com instead of your local domain (www.google.ca), the picture shows up perfectly. If I uncheck that, no picture shows up. Im sorry if im unable to help, but thats how I managed to get it working. I really dont know why its not working for you, sorry. :/
Mine doesn't have the option to search Google etc in privacy, however I am able to get pics.
Followed steps and speak back feature works great!

This post right here, is a perfect example of what we here at XDA like to call "SPAM."
---on topic
I've implemented these changes myself and I still had some issues sadly ^^
Mostly with voice recognition. But thank you for the contribution!
bro, its working now, finally figured it out where those stuff is located, its working like charm now, but without cards.
I think you may need to use them a bit more. I always get cards. And I think it also depends what you ask it Weather should always have a card. (99% sure)

Hmm, I know this sounds stupid, but is your volume at max? It didnt work for me once because my volume was down lol. Major fail on my part.
Also, could you tell me your settings on Voice in Google Now settings?
It should be Language: Default - English(US), Speech Output: Always Speak. (The other two are block offensive words and Hotword detection which are both checked, but they shouldnt make a difference either way)
Other settings to be aware of are:
-Make sure profiles is off (some profiles might have silent activated)
-Settings>Language and Input>Language, English (US)
Unfortunately, Im not on the same rom as you are right now, (Im on RemICS - JB) so we have some different settings in the Language and Input part, but I'll make a backup and flash PA 360 and try to make google now voice stop working to see what settings are stopping yours. I apologize for this thread of not being much help to you. If you manage to get it working before I can find which settings are messing it up, then kudos to you, and please share your new findings so I can update the thread. Really, I dont know why half the community has it working and the other half doesnt.

^Now this is what we call, SPAM. Random post in a thread with one word that is completely irrelevant, as well as completely unnecessary. Seriously, if you really want to gain post numbers, just go to the off topic section in general discussion. There are so many threads you can post in which wont count as spam...

Tasker would probably be your best bet.
http://tasker.wikidot.com/failedloginphoto
That is old school, but you could modify for your case.
first, i don't have root now.
second, i can start the app before and then to close the screen and to take pictures with pattern or press some place...
Wait, what?
Are u an spy or something? haha ;l
There are Gallery apps in the playstore that have a "private" function that require a password to view and some are just hidden?
Also with apps like QuicPic, and many others, you can long press on a folder and "hide" it... Then it's not visible while using that gallery app, but you can find it using a file explore or you can re-enable the view of that folder.
this is how upskirts happen
no .. i don't s[y or something like that even not something that rude, just want to take pictures and to send them to a specific number but...without opening the locked phone

you have to understand why ppl find this EXTREMELY sketchy. you're admitting u want to take and send pics without someone knowing about it

You're not supposed to take pictures when you're taking a test, that would be wrong. And what comes to meetings, there's really no need to hide what you're doing with your phone.
i have my porposes i don't understand what these doing with the question? if you can help, help if not so not..belive me i don;t use it for illigal porposes, for thet there is special spy stuff
this is a funny post to read so far. But yeah i would not post stuff like that in here since i would make you seem very sketchy regardless what reasons may be. And good luck to find one
This is not going to go anywhere. Nor do I see anything good coming out of this. Thread closed.

I can't undestand the picture to see the problem, anycase clean the data of the app in settings and after this, stop the app. Restart the phone and open camera and see the differences

The problem that the picture is not clear :/
Clean the gunk of the lens, and next time when asking a question use proper English so it does look like you care. Because if you don't why should anyone else!!! (Only saying that because i know you can!)
