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.

I, also, would love to see this worked in? (I'm no dev). This has always kinda bugged me about android.
Glad to see this thread and others' opinions.

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.

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...

move phone closer to your face?
I don't think there is a way
I haven't tried it, but this may do what you want. It looks like the free version only supports 5 contacts though, and the paid version is a bit pricey.

Does anyone have a remedy to this? My phone takes amazing pictures and videos and we all know that but it says shrinking for mms and after i send it my picture clarity is horrible and u cant see much. Im wondering if there is a way to stop this?? Thanks all!!
Sent from my Sammy Epic Touch using XDA App
This is more a function of your carrier than your device. The carriers have set limits to the size mms they will let you send.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
I understand that and im actually a sales rep. My evo and 3d and any other phone with a good camera never downgraded the pictures nearly as much as my epic touch. It takes the quality down way past what it should.
Sent from my Sammy Epic Touch using XDA App
I find if I take the picture in a lower megapixel like 640x480, there is no degradation in image quality once sent via mms. Kinda defeats the purpose, i know, but it is what it is.....
Just email the pic to your friends/families phones. The [email protected](insert carrier).com That may produce better quality since the wont compress the pic.
I rarely mms pics anymore unless it is to a someone with a dumb/feature phone. I either email or send a link to my picasa album.
Use a third party app like handcent or Go SMS.. I customized my handcent app to look just like the stock epic touch SMS app because I like that look.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Use either a 3rd party app like the lerson above me states. Or use dropbox, upload the pic 2 dropbox, m copy n public link, n send that link to whomever

I agree some of our amazing devs have to be able to do something about it. No way it has to be that hard to send a good pic on this phone
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
This is a pretty common issue with many android phones. Because of the 1mb mms limit the phones must compress the picture. For some reason they seem to like to compress them down to uner 100kb insted of just under 1mb. I dont know if there's any way to fix this other than to take smaller pictures so there wont be any compression.
So every time I send a screencap people always tell me the text is blurry and can't read it. Today I tried sending the same pic but used handcent and the quality was a whole lot better. Anybody knows why the stock messaging compresses mms into such a bad quality? It's not noticeable on pictures of ppl or things just when sending a picture with text on it. Hmm?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Yes. Unfortunately you have to run something like go SMS and change the send size if u want crisp mms.
Or email em

I don't know if this occur to me as well but i can tell you that when i send an MMS it just stays like "on a loop" (Sending it) like FOR HOURS!!! It's insane, & yes, I'm running stock for now just to know how the phone works by himself without any tweaks... (I'm not giving it much time now, I've heard A LOT OF AWESOME THINGS & ROMS in here; so please don't judge me ...)
Is there something that I need to change for this
I guess I can email them about it. Thanks for the reply.

Sounds like you need to call Sprint and have them refresh your data connection. Mine sends them in like 1-3 seconds.

No prob! Hope that helps it did for me when I had the same problem on my Evo. It wasn't configured right so my mms wouldn't go thru.

I'm sure this has been answered but the 'search' function on the app sucks. Anyway, the contact photos look horrible when on a call or any time bugger than a thumbnail. Is there anyway to make them better? Not so pixilated?

I personally ask all my friends to send me a good HD picture of them... set it as their contact pic and I'm set .. if anything look thru your friends Facebook pictures and press the menu within the picture ... set as... contact picture... there you go.

Take/use a pic with a higher res....
I feel like I'm missing something terribly obvious to warrant asking a question like this
I'm using fb pics to sync with contacts so maybe that's the problem.
