I had this issue because I transferred my contact pictures over from Google, and my last phone had lower res pictures. I solved it by taking new hi res pictures for my contacts.
Try this app.

I had to remove each contact photo and then re add it from pics I had in my gallery of people.
Use Haxsync like Zabalba said. It sync's higher resolution photos from fb for you.
This has been driving me crazy. Thanks for redo pics idea..worked wonders

Is this possible, the contacts pics are so low-res that during a call, when I look at the avatar it looks blurry.. Is there way to change this..
Only happens for contacts whose pics were dl'd from fb of course..
My regular contacts with pics from the gallery are fine
Edit: I found an app called 'facebook sync; from market it syncs your contacts info with their pics on facebook.. and it does this in higher resolution that the stock facebook sync method..
also it seems to have fixed the contact pics not showing up in google voice.. everything is smooth now
Yeah that's because the source material from Facebook for those contact pics is poor. I've experienced that problem. The only way to fix it would be to manually assign better pics to your contacts.
Re: Higher Resolution contact pics from FB?
when i changed to modaco desire port alpha 19 my fb contact pics got sharper.

contact pics from fb are something small, like 100x100 pixels. on your phone, 100x100 is very small, so when it gets blown up, it looks pixelated. nothing you can do except manually assign photos.
Solved.........
Is it possible to edit the ROM so it picks up higher resolution instead of 100x100?

no. that resolution is assigned by facebook. it's the profile image size.
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.

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).

Hello all,
I am also looking for an answer to this.
I have a Motorola Atrix with Gingerbread (not rooted), and my contact pictures (most are from facebook) look terrible when I get an incoming call or outogoing calls.
Anyway to make these pictures better quality?
Thanks

i use syncmypix however its still low quality do you sync your contacts with gmail? and are you on ICS ?
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?
For some reason even though I've already reinstalled before via the factory reset, 3 times total now..
I still have dots on the pictures of my contacts but only during incoming calls. If I look at them in the contacts window, there is no problem and if I take a new picture and set it to an existing contact it goes away so its only on existing contacts, the ones that are imported when adding my Google account.
Does anybody else have this problem?

best solution is change your contact to gmail account (no more on phone) and change the contact pictures that u want with pictures from gallery for one time (i know its sucks).... also if u have some of ur contact linked to facebook, that should update ur friend pictures without dots
It is because the quality of the pictures in google contacts is low (but google changed the picture limitation for contacts).
it's intentional I thought

dots on the call incoming photos are basically because the picture quality of the contact photos you have are low. i suggest you sync with facebook or something that will give higher quality photos. i dont think gmail or google contacts saves pictures in high quality mode. i actually had to use an app to sync my facebook photos to my google account previously. but now with sense5 it just pulls the photos straight from facebook into the sense framework.
Yes I know that Google just recently upgraded to high quality pictures on Gmail and or Google contacts but I still wasn't sure if the dots were there to try to suggest you can make a better quality picture and if so I would prefer just a message saying 'Hey you can now make/use better quality pictures'.
I don't use Facebook and my contacts' pictures are not stored on the phone.
I guess the dots over contact pictures during calls is their way of saying: guess what! you can now put a better picture in here!
I was actually having the same question!
I had an old photo of my bud hooked up with my Google Account... That photo had black dots all over the place :s
I then was manually linking anything HTC may have missed, and as soon as a higher res photo was available, black dots went away and photo changed.
Still don't know why they're there. Maybe it is because of the low quality image, but could definitely be something else.
I too thought it was intentional!
