How do you set your own picture? You know, in the messaging app where it says Me: but has the gray box there? When I was running Sense it grabbed my FB picture, but now it's blank. I tried setting up a contact with my number, email, and full name and it didn't work. I even tried setting the name to Me, still no dice. Anyone found out how to do this? I'm running CM7 right now.
Settings>Call settings>additional settings>set phone number
Then make a contact out of your number then put a picture..
Done..

I just added myself to my contact list because I text myself a lot of reminders and eventually put a pic for my own contact card thing.

Right now this has really pee'd me off. I've gone to send a text message to my Dad, but I can't because the "phone memory is full", WTF ! Thank god it weren't important. BTW apparently I'm at 6mb so I don't understand how one small (KB?) message is gunna make a difference.
So I was wondering if a hard reset is worth a try? I'd like to know if it will actually free up any memory. I think I heard of people doing this and it has, is this correct? Also, will it remember all of the apps I've downloaded through the market? Also, any info on HTC backup software would be awesome help, but dw if not I'm sure there are loads of threads about that anyway.
Many thanks in advance!
A hard reset will basically give you the default clean ROM that you have installed.
Does your phone not have to many SMS's saved?

Is there anyway I can find out how many I have?
Well I'm looking at my Froyo messaging settings here and I can see an option saying that it's limiting the messages in a conversation to 200 and 20 mms messages per conversation.
Not sure about the stock SenseUI ROM though.

Yeah mine says that as well but that doesn't show how many, and I'd rather it didn't just delete any message
Mine shows a number next to the conversation stating how many messages there are.

You should be able to see the number of messages per conversation, that has been a standard thing for Sense as far as I can remember. If you really want to keep a hold of your text message try an sms back up program. I use one that backs everything to Gmail for me so it doesn't really matter if it getsdeleted.

That sounds like an awesome idea, what's the app called?

It's not an app that you're downloading, the message per conversation counter is a default feature on Sense. Next to each contact that you send messages to, you should see a number in brackets next to them. I'm really not sure if you know what we're all talking about or we may not be understanding what you are after but I'd suggest give us a rundown on your software version and whether for not you have a carrier phone and maybe a screen shot of your messaging inbox.

I have searched everywhere for this answer, but I thought it would be worth a shot asking here.
I have been trying for a month now to get this problem fixed and its on my last nerve. When I send or receive a message from my girlfriend, it pops up as two names instead of one. (refer to the attachment) The contact named "David" pops in front of her name every time. I have tried reinstalling and deleting or even re adding both people's contact. Nothing has worked and would absolutely LOVE some input on this. It happens with a few of my other contacts, but this one is the one I use all the time so you can understand my torment.
I cant go into the thread to send a message, because everything i send goes to both people obviously (very annoying)
I appreciate any help....BTW I use handcent for messaging

Isn't it weird.... i didn't have one problem with this on 2.1. When i wiped everything... including cache... for SkyRaider the first time thats when it started. I have had to wipe many times for SkyRaider ROM updates and every time i do, i still get this problem in some form.
It wouldn't be ROM related would it... or is it a Froyo thing? grr
This pic shows it a little better.

did someone mess with your phone and save your girls number under david lee as well? Also, did you text both of them in the same message? Can you confirm that david lee is not receiving your texts as well?

No one has messed with my phone at all. I just checked again and they are both totally separate. David Lee does not have Chelsea's in his contact numbers and Chelsea does not have Davids.
Yes if i actually send a message through that thread it will go to both of them. With my brother's contact, its worse. When the thread pops up for his it's not just two people, its like 9. The only way to ensure that she only receives my message is to go to her contact and select the "send message" button with her cell number.
Did you originally send both of them the same message?

No, I never send either of them the same message and originally I probably sent a message to Chelsea and that's what it looks like everytime instead of her name by itself.

As you tell from this picture, it doesn't really fix it. I deleted his contact...un synced Facebook....uninstalled and reinstalled handcent to arrive at what I have in that picture. How in the Hell the number still shows up even after the contact is gone is ridiculous...

Does any one know how to make pictures bigger and clearer on caller id?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I'm pretty sure there's an app for that.
For clearer pics you just need better pics, as for bigger pics good luck.i tried to make full screen caller id no luck so far and havent seen anyone else mess with it. I'm hoping someday someone gets us full screen caller id
I hear most full screen caller id apps are not very good

ice noticed that if on your previous phone you linked pics to a contact and then switch phones the pic will be thier but pixelized, you have to relink the pic.

hmm...that's weird...I just tried it, and it worked fine for me. Oh, maybe it's because your trying from your phone...my fault. The name of the app is "Full Screen Caller ID". It was a link to the market page, but you can just search it in the market, and find it that way also.
yeah i have tried this one(free version) and have even tried to rip out and rework frame work to mimic this on the phones caller id (have yet to make it work)
If you sync your contacts with Google, the problem is that Google Contacts only supports low-res pics. Even if you put a high res pic on a contact on your phone, it will sync it to Google, which will downconvert it, and sync it back as a crappy looking picture. It sucks, and it's infuriating that they haven't fixed this after years of people complaining.
One workaround on a sense ROM is to create a second contact as a "Phone" contact, put the picture on that one, and link the two. That way all the important info is still synced to Google, but it uses a local picture for the phone. Another alternative is to turn off contact syncing altogether, but then you'd need to be sure you have another backup solution in place.
hi people in previous month my cousin has inserted her SIM card in my phone so all her numbers saved to my phone book and then to Google account, i was thinking that i can use phone and just ignore those phone numbers but after some time they started annoy me. I deleted them and when i connect to wi-fi they appear in my phone again. I can't off contact sync because I'm always testing my new ROMs ( if I turn it off there wont be any contacts anymore). I searched lots of forums but doesn't found anything about it. Do you have any ideas about it?

If i remember correctly there should be a tab called contacts on the main page after you login. Was it the upper left corner?
