hi, every body. I have one question and I thinks others does, too. Is there anyway to change size of contact's photo? I want to add pics of my friends to contacts but it seems to small and quality is so bad. I think it can change via framework or system UI's editting but I'm quite bad at this. So if there a way, plz tell me how to do it, I like the way of Iphone or Window Phone.

About small and low quality image, i think it use for text store! Because export to file to sd, it also backup picture and save as text in one file
Sorry if this not true ^^

One thing that annoys me to no end is that you can put a picture in each contact but when they call it's just this tiny little pic on the screen.
Does anybody know of a program out there that will show a full screen (or close to it) picture of the person calling in? This has always annoyed me!
I remember someone with an iphone 'skin', which I believe brought up the full picture while you were RECEIVING a call. I can't remember if it also worked when placing a call.

Thank you much!
I've always wished that there was a caller ID program that did not come with all the bloat of Photo Contacts Pro. Seems like no one has ever bothered to make a simple program like that though.

Try Inesoft Address Book, very good with skinning support for the caller ID. www.inesoft.com
why cant there be just a simple program for photo caller ID? ive tried all the other programs and dont need the address book and everything else. Its a part of all these other programs, someone must know how to do this. thanks...
S2U2 v0.72 supports full screen photo caller ID. Search the forum and u'll get it free. Need to edit registry key though for caller ID to work. Just read the first post of the thread.
The iphone skin reffered to is the program Slide 2 Unlock. This is available via this forum. Within the post there are details of a registry setting which gives you two different options for setting caller ID pictures. One is a small pic and the other is full screen. Works well !

now it comes with it own config settings... so no need to do a reg edit....very nice app...
I installed S2U2 v0.86 last night and it appears at this early stage to do the large incoming caller photo very well. I also use PocketCM both for browsing contacts and to assign the caller photo. Both apps are from here at XDA-Developers and have excelent support. They are both skinnable.

Hi, I was wondering.
On all the diamond ads and demos, you see contact pictures looking sharp, colourfull and nice in he contact shortcut on TF3D.
When I set my contacts in the shortcut, they look like ****, all blury and like underscalled.
When I look at the used pictures threw the album, they look sharp.
Does anyone know haow to have nice pictures in the contact shortcut?
Thanks

I've noticed the same. I've also noticed that if you take a picture with your Diamond to use as a contact picture it will be sharp and if you take a high resolution picture of someone and crop it without too much scaling it will also be sharp. I think what we need to know is the optimum dimensions for the contact pics as well as the optimum resolution. I'm sure you'll find it somewhere on the forum if you search.
OK thanks,
I think I'll take a picture with the diamond and open it in photoshop, thenre I will have the good ration.
Thanks
I have seen the solution here somewhere before. It has to do with the file compression that the phone does when you select an image as a contact picture. There is a workaround.
to add a pic for contact go to the htc album select the contact pic from the album and add it to a contact with the menu
If you add contact pictures using Outlook on your PC, or Contacts on WM, then it doesn't save them at very high quality.
If you do it using TF3D, then the images are saved at a higher quality, and stay that way, even when they're syncronised to and from an exchange server or through ActiveSync
I had similar issue. Then, I've used S2V (http://www.pocketpcfreeware.com/en/index.php?soft=2432) to set images to contacts and they appear very clear now in the TouchFlo3D. I do not really know why, but if you have time to check please let me know the results

What you need is go to PEOPLE in TFL3D, and flip to the picture you want to replace, and then click MENU | CHANGE PICTURE. Select any High Res pic you want!
In my previous phones I have been using photoshop to tune my pictures for contacts. I would love to know the resolution for the people/contact images aswell.
Would someone be so kind as to point me to where I might find some Dial Screen skins / options.
I'm looking for something that will:
1. show a LARGER Contact Image
2. and secondary if it could have slightly larger dial buttons that would be cool to
Thanks for any info...
Oh btw - I have a AT&T Tilt, one is running Cube(SCLPF_1-62_Uno_Skin_) and one is not.

Thanks for the link
That helps with the larger dial pad .... but what about one that lets you have a Larger Contact Image?
Not really sure if your talking about just contact photos for the incoming calls or what. Cuz if you install S2U2 (which is free) and you can turn on its caller ID function and make your contact photos show full screen when receiving calls. But as for large photos to choose from to make an outgoing call, the only thing I am really aware of is PocketX Photo Contacts From the description I read, it too can make your contact photos full screen for your caller ID for incoming calls but this costs money. You can also browse your contact list via somewhat large photos. But keep in mind this program is a PHONEBOOK app. As for a DIALER that has very large contact photos, I dont know. Also, I havnt used this PocketX app personally so I cant tell you much more about it. Sorry. Anyways hope this helps.
I searched for the same thing as the first poster. Although it's true that Photo Contacts would do the job, it's incredibly bloated *and* (as already pointed out) it's not a dialer.
I haven't found an all round solution yet. My temporary 'solution' is to have a custom theme/pages with WAD, allowing for a nice big friendly photo dialler for a selection of my regular contacts.
I'm quite disappointed with the phone aspects of this device, to be honest. But I've bought it now so I'm just trying to make the best of a bad situation. The rest's great tho
"Nice" to see I'm not the only one looking for this ;-)
What custom theme/pages with WAD are you using? (oh and what's WAD).
Any chance of a screen shot?
Thanks

I'd just shame myself if I posted a screenshot, my artistic talents are near zero
It's quite easy, although a little time consuming to set WAD up the way you like it, but here you go :
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products/pocketpc/WisBarAdvanceDesktop/
Absolutely perfect for me, as I really (really!) don't like all these custom phone themes kicking around in here giving 3D effects and slowing my phone to a crawl.
WAD'll let you set things *your* way. Not perfect in it's entireity, but certainly the best thing available for me.
Any help, just ask. I'll do my best.
Hi, I'm really new to wp8 development..

I know I am being picky but I do not like the default generic blue caller ID picture that shows up when you receive a call from someone not in your contacts without an associated picture.
Is it possible to find this picture on the phone and replace it with one I like?
Can this be done without rooting? If so anyone know in what directory or where to look on the phone to find this image?
Thanks for any help.
What android version do you have? It worked fine in Kitkat, but yesterday i've updated to latest Lollipop, 23.1.A.0.726, and now i have the same problem again

Good question - I too would be interested in changing this photo to something custom.
U can add a custom photo, but the idea is to see the updated photo from Facebook, in my opinion at least

He doesn't want to add a custom photo for his contacts. He wants to replace the stock blank image for callers that are not saved as contacts. When you receive a call from an unknown number, the image with a blank generic human shadow appears.
