Not sure but I think the photo comes from the contacts database if you have photos assigned there, and is triggered by the Caller ID feature - which is not used for SMS. I imagine that there is probably a third party application that would do that. Have to search around, though.
if u used the palm threaded sms app it does this.. i can not post where to find it because the site got introuble b4 when it was posted but just goole it..
Does anyone know of a dialer which displays a larger contacts photo. The size of photo in the standard T-Mobile dialer is tiny. Also the pop up notification window on an incoming call doesn't show any photo. A large picture of the caller would be great for screening calls. I used to use a modded Eten dialer on my Wizard which did have a slightly larger picture but afaik it is WM5 and does not support video calling.

Are there any Kaiser compatible dialers which display a larger contacts photo?
I used to use this and it worked nicely:

It also had good profile management, blocking features etc.
I can't be bothered to install it now that the HTC Home has contact pictures on it though...
I have used "Slide 2 Unlock" on mine which is available on this forum. There is a registry setting on this that will allow you to have a full screen picture of the incoming call contact as a background with the incoming phone number providing you have a photo for the caller stored. It works very well and it's free!
I'm now using "Inesoft Address Book" and I'm quite happy about it.

Try it and I'm sure you'll like it

I installed this last night (v0.86) and it is working brilliantly. What with S2U2, PocketCM, PocketCM keyboard, HTC Album I feel like a little Apple fan boy. I didn't start out to clone the iPhone look&feel I just wanted a responsive, intuitive, user friendly interface for commonly used features.
I guess I didn't either but it's hard not to like some of these iphone type apps. It's a bit like having the best of both worlds, but what I will say is that I tried the iphone in the o2 shop and the screen is something else!
Does it identify contacts in your SIM? Photo COntacts pro didn't that's why I stopped using it. Also can you use alternate dialerpads cause the one they show is ugly. Also what shows when someone without a picture is calling? Thanks for your help and advice.
Does somebody know what registry settings belongs to make larger contact photo appear on incoming calls? I don't want to use a multi purpose program for it.
Thx
has anyone ever experienced the problem of not having the assigned contact picture being displayed when receiving/making a call? The contact picture does display by just viewing the contact normally.
I'm using valkyrie V5.7.24001 (which is awesome) and have linked most contacts via facebook.
any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks
It may be a dumb question, but i could't figure out how.
How can i see contact pictures when somebody call me?
i synced my contacts with facebook and i can see their pictures in contact list. but when somebody call me instead of their pictures my phone shows a white - blue standart picture for everyone.
thanks in advance.
Hi,
maybe this thread solves your problem. I couldn't try it out since all my contacts are synced via googlemail, but is sounds like the solution to your problem.

Thank you very much, it did the trick for me
Hi,
I just got my HTC One which seems a real excellent device, but first thing that I miss (coming from an HTC One X), is that I don't see the contact's picture when I receive a SMS notification on the lockscreen, which was quicker to identify than needing to read the contact's name ...
Is there a way to change this ?
On missed calls I see the contact's picture, so why not on SMS ?
Thanks !
