Hey guys just had a quick question about the contact pictures in 2.2 ROMS. I have only noticed it in the stock android messaging app but outgoing messages that are sent from me have no picture in the box. I was wondering how you can get that picture to populate?
Thanks in advance guys
Do you have your picture set up on your Google account?
Do that and it should be solved.

I have my picture set up and my phone number visible as well but it still doesnt show up for me lol
Maybe this thread is what you are looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687011
At least it seems that that is your problem...had it as well. Fixed it by adding my mobile number directly to my sim (with my old TyTNII, since Android won't let you do that).
when i receive a picture i click on the thumbnail to bring it up and it shows the pic for like a split second then takes be back to my main page of messages. its not giving me an option to save the picture so im assuming im receiving a slideshow of pics. any help?
Which rom are you using (if you're rooted)?
Are you using the stock messenger? If yes, have you tried using Handcent or some messaging alternative?
Hey I am currently using RoDrIgUeZsTyLe's MIUIMOD, and I love everything about but, but for some reason facebook contact pictures don't show up in the messaging app....
anyway to fix it?
I've posted this question in the HTC ONE forum on AndroidCentral as well, but I haven't had any responses yet. I'd love to see if this is an HTC ONE related issue, or if it's possibly just an issue with my wife's phone specifically.
Any help or insight on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I picked up an HTC One for my wife yesterday and she tinkered with it all evening yesterday. One thing she noticed that I was unable to answer was sending pictures using the SHARE option. Sure, you can open up the default text messaging app and send a picture, but typically she'll share Facebook messages or share multiple photos from an app like QuickPic and then select MESSAGING to send the photos. Right now, it's forcing her to save the pictures, then open the messaging app and attach them.
I looked myself and noticed there is a very limited number of apps available under the SHARE option when you're trying to share an image from any app (Gallery, QuickPic, Facebook, etc). There does not seem to be a way of sharing images (single or multiple) directly from the image viewer or original app, you have to open the messenger app and then add them one by one.
I even tried downloading AndMade Share, but that showed the same limited list of apps to share with.
Am I missing something? I looked through the list of messaging settings, tried searching online here and on XDA, and couldn't find any mention of this issue. I'd rather not install a 3rd party messaging app to gain this ability, but if it's required then so be it.
As a side note, she's loving the phone overall. The camera is stellar and getting the phone for $169 at Costco was a bonus as well (even came with a free fitted transulucent plastic case, which was nice). The HTC included ear buds were also very nice. Overall, very impressed with the phone and included goodies.

Thanks for the response. I'll take a look at her phone when she gets home tonight.
I tried that last night and the items I got were:
Send to AT&T Locker
Gmail
Email
Facebook
Picasa
Dropbox
and a few others.
I'll post a screen cap if it still isn't working.
Just seems odd that even with Andmade Share MESSAGES wasn't showing. Maybe I was just not seeing it in the list on the phone. That's entirely possible, as we had just got back into town last night when this occurred.

Looks like you can use Share to send one picture via the stock Gallery app, but no luck sharing with QuickPic (single or multiple selected photos) or Facebook to the stock messaging app.
Here are screen caps of the QuickPic SHARE options. Options are similar within Facebook as well.
Just an update:
I e-mailed the developer for QuickPic to mention the issue my wife was having with her HTC one. They responded that it's an issue with the HTC Messaging app. According to him, HTC limits which apps can share pictures with the messaging app.
Looks like the answer will be to use a non-stock messenger.
Same issue. I want to send memes from an app, but don't get the option unless I save to gallery. Third party messenger it is, I guess.
Sent from my HTC One (M7)
Its stupid things like this that give everyone a reason to bash android as a whole. I cannot wait for an aosp ROM to become available for this thing.CComing from aokp on my nexus is making me frustrated with sense.
Completed a update OTA today and after taking a photo or video, the very useful pop up box to share via WhatsApp has gone !! Instead, there's Duo, Youtube and Message, so I unticked YouTube and now the pop up box has completely gone.
Does anyone know how to get it back and include WhatsApp as a sharing option ?
Thanks
Whatsapp , Skype, Twitter etc are all working over here. Goto Camera settings and click Socail Share.... You may have to update Whatsapp.
Thanks, all sorted now. It was because I was running WhatsApp Beta, once I came off the Beta programme and installed stock whatsapp, its all back as it was.
