Just seen the video of galaxy ta. could we not use the phone app from that in some way. It has larger contact pictures and video call feature. Our galaxy s pictures when we call suck big time. All burry low res and small and i kinda like the white background from the tab too. What you guys think?

does anyone know a way to improve the quality and increase the size of the contact pictures?
If yours contacts in Google contacts, then you make new Contact in the Phone memory.
Only name + picture, after that you should to link phone mem contact to same google contact.
Phone memory contact has priority:
1. you will see better picture
2. you can change the ring too
cons:
- you have to duplicate all google contacts to phone memory (name + better pic)
Yeah, I guess the only way to have high res images is to have them locally .
P.S Video calling is already available on SGS. Interface is not as nice as in Tab but it works.

Ok, so i have already searched the forum and tried the suggestions but it didn't work.
Anyone have Mp3 trimmer from the original Diamond working on the D2? i downloaded one but it only takes up about 1/4 of the screen and is too small to work with.
As a new owner and a n00bie to all these fantastic apps (I had the diamond for a year and never actually did anything to it except add skype),
What are the essential apps to download for the D2? things that really make a difference or are a lot of fun?
my last question...When i add a photo to a contact, on the contact page it comes out in low res....any idea how to make it high res?

I have not used the MP3 Trimmer but it sounds like the resoultion is out, maybe have a lookie in the Touch HD forum as the HD is the same res as the D2
On the note of contacts, I have found that if I use a old photo stored on the storage card it has a reduced res, when I took a new photo of the contact with the camera going through the "change photo" menu it produced a better high res shot

Is there a way to share higher resolution pictures on apps such as Facebook or Twitter from the Camera program? When I take a picture and want to share it I click on the menu button -> Share and select Facebook or Twitter. Problem is the picture that's shared is TINY even though I'm taking a 5MP picture and you can't even make out anything. Is there a setting for this anywhere where I can adjust the resolution it's sent out at?
How are you trying to share the photo? Using AllShare?
All default options such as Google mail, Bluetooth, etc shares complete pic.

I'm sharing it directly from the Camera app. Ie I take the picture and when it shows the preview there is a Share button. I like the button and a list pops up of ways to share it which includes Facebook and Twitter. The problem I have is that what it uploads is a tiny resolution (320x240) picture that can barely be made out. Is there a way to change the resolution that is uploaded to these sites?
Bump...anyone know how to do this?
Hi everyone,
There's a really annoying problem with the Samsung contacts provider (which isn't present in vanilla Android). The placeholder for the picture is square, and thus the profile pictures get squashed into 1:1 aspect ratio, instead of being cropped.
The problem isn't evident on Google contacts, since the Google profile pics come in a 1:1 aspect ratio originally. Facebook, however, has two profile pics per person - the full-size one, which is usually not square, and the small, cropped one (the one that appears on the wall posts, etc.). Samsung contacts app takes the uses the full-sized pictures. But since it doesn't know how to crop them, it just squeezes them into squares instead, which looks awful.
Anyone has a solution to that? In Vanilla messaging app which I use, the picture looks fine - it's not cropped and not squeezed, it just doesn't take up the whole square. Same goes for Dialer One. But I want to use the Samsung dialer, as well as Samsung Contacts - and they distort the pictures.
I noticed when I get a message on hangouts the photo on the watch is pixelated. Is there a way to fix that? When i get calls the contact photo on the watch is fine so not sure why the hangouts photo looks pixelated.
No fix currently. Its pulling pictures from the phone notification (not the same as contact picture)... since notification pictures are much smaller, their resolution is much lower. There is currently no fix Hopefully their will be.
Hey guys I've been noticing that my gogle photos app shows photos and videos in lower quality then what they are, yet when I go to the device folders page they show up at the correct quality. I have my account sync set to original and so I would just really want to know if anyone else has been experiencing this or if it's just me?
I'm running Pure Nexus by the way in case that helps
If they have been backed up to the cloud, its likely that those are just smaller res versions for viewing on mobile (less bandwith).
Something you could do to test, remove a couple of the photos off your device (i.e. move to your PC) go into the photos app and find the same photos, click download and see the quality of what you get from that.
