My contacts no longer show up for my messaging app, it jus has their phone numbers.. I've reset my phone and took the battery out.. am I missing something?
Mine did that too... I quit syncing with Google contacts and it fixed it for me...

I've got the same issue, uninstalled re-installed still don't display and they used to.
have you tried going to the application settings?
then customize the style and enable contact picture?
maybe its disabled in the new update

I done that too, and I enabled large picture under the 'display contacts picture' setting. still no luck
in that case its probably an issue with handcent, itll probably get updated soon so keep your eyes open you can always leave a comment on the market?
You can add me to the list . I thought it might have been something I uninstalled, but doubt it.
Contact the developer of the app.
I got the same problem , only a few pictures works ...
It seems to work well with Chompsms, but i dont want those damn "iphone" bubbles
I'm having the same issue but I am doubting that it is due to Handcent.

I have my contact sync'd from Google and Facebook for HTC Sense on my HTC Incredible. Any SMS or MMS message I receive will show the contact image except the 10 or so contacts that I have in my Google Talk list. I have tried "un-linking" them but it didn't correct the problem. The same thing is happening in the original Messages application so that is why I am questioning the cause being associated with Handcent.
Any other thoughts about this?
I'm having the same issue. I recall I fixed this once by going into the contacts application and clearing the data. Everything synced up again.
OR perhaps I just uninstalled Facebook for HTC Sense and reinstalled it..I can't remember. Damn.
Yep..uninstalled FB from syncing, and reinstalled..takes a while..but they are all back in hancent.
Not sure what I did to cause this, but as of last night (didnt install anything..was just playing around with the phone) my contacts in SMS do not have their default icon which is typically their image from FB.
Any idea how to correct this?
I downloaded chompSMS this morning, and verified the contact images are pulling through correctly there...its the stock SMS app thats not rendering contact icons accordingly.
Thanks.
Running Fresh 1.0.1
Try to re-sync your fb account and once is syncs reboot. Sometimes it takes time for pics to display for contacts. Its happen to me where I see fb pic on people app and not in sms app but after a while fb pics show up everywhere.
Thanks for the input.
Just tried that and unfortunately that did not work.
Any other suggestions ?
What good is a smart phone if it can't walk and chew gum at the same time?
Sometimes my contact pic wont show up sometimes... Weird
Bumping this because I still can't seem to fix this. Flashed back to DC and same issue.
Deleted Chomp sms and no difference.
Anyone?

yea im having the same problem. some contacts show in sms no poblem but most just show the silhouette. also under contacts some show the correct updated facebook picture while others seem to be ones they had months ago and it wont update to the new one.
i did search online earlier and from what i can see is that its pretty widespread throughout android systems like hero, evo, etc... blah i want a fix
Last night I updated my wife's Epic to DK28. The problem is her contacts are gone and syncing doesn't bring them back. Why wouldn't they have saved to her gmail am I overlooking something. I have flashed my phones a lot and never had this issue.
Sent from my SPH-M900 using XDA App
check google/contacts online and see if her contacts are listed there. My wife had a similar problem and turns out when she added a contact she added them to her phone address book and not google.
http://www.google.com/contacts
They are not there is there a way to add them to Google after they are back in the phone?
Sent from my SPH-M900 using XDA App
can you get them back on the phone? Are there a lot of them?
I had a similar problem on the syndicate rom a while ago. It would say it was syncing for a second then stop. I also noticed when i went to facebook.com and tried to install the app from there it thought my phone was something other than the epic. I resolved the issue by using a different ROM. I don't know if these things are related, but that might be a start...
Yeah luckily we found her old phone and transferred thru bluetooth but I am tryin to figure out how to get them to google in case this happens again. As far as the rom she was totally stock di18 not even rooted for 5 weeks and I updated her to unrooted dk28.

You should be able to export them from contacts via the import/export menu option. This will create a file named something like 00001.vcf(vCard file) in sdcard/external_sd/. Then go to the google contacts and import it. Hope that helps!
Ok I will try that. Thanks alot guys.

Just make sure when she adds any new contacts that she adds them to google.
Stupid question but she does have syncing turned on in her contacts right? After they're restored try to force sync, then check her google account from a desktop/laptop to see if it worked.
I've not had much luck with the import export v card feature. I recently had to delete all contacts on my phone, then go to my google account via desktop, export all contacts to google.csv, delete all contacts online, then reinstall online from the google.csv file in order to fix a syncing problem.

I think google may be having an issue at the moment. My phone is saying that Sync is currently offline and will be back shortly.
Yeah her sync is on I just don't get what happened. I have reflashed my epic about 10 times without issue. And my moment ugh probably 75-100. Never lost contacts it has been automatic since I got my first android.

After my last rom flash I had a situation where any time I added a contact on the phone it got deleted after syncing. No idea why but a google search lead me to others that had the same issue.
I think this OS still has a lot to be ironed out. I wish they'd stop adding features and just make a decent contacts app. I can't for the life of me figure out why I have to select which of the same four phone numbers I want to dial when I try to call a contact that is synced to multiple accounts, for example.

sometimes when i have synching issues, i fix it by going into 'manage applications' and clearing the data for that app. i've had to do that with gmail.... it erases and re-synchs the app, and afterwards it works like normal. of course, only do it if she does indeed have her contacts backed up on Google... otherwise they will be gone. not sure if this will fix hers, but just saying it did fix my synching issues a few times.
For some reason only one of my Facebook friends is not showing up in my contact list, i have, in settings, set it to show all Facebook contacts. It shows all except one. I go into my Facebook app and it shows him as a friend...i don't get it... I've cleared out my log in through accounts and then set it back up, waited for all the contacts to be linked up again, but he's still not there... really frustrating... any ideas?

Yes! This is just the issue I've experienced too. One of my contacts doesn't show up no matter what I do. I've spent a lot of time playing with this. It's quite annoying. I think this is a problem on FB's side.
Well I don't know what exactly I did to fix it, but its working now... I went into my facebook albums to check out some pics and he was on the lost so I checked my contact list and he was linked again

I think sometimes if the names don't match up perfectly it doesn't find it...I'm sure you verified this already though.
Facebook Sync/Contacts/Messaging
I am having a problem getting my contact picture to appear in messaging as well as caller ID.
I have synced my Facebook account with my contact list, joined all of the contacts, and have the Caller ID default set to the Facebook picture.
However, all of the pictures in my messaging and when someone calls me comes up as the blank default picture as if they do not have one set.
The pictures appear in the contact list fine, and are all marked as default for caller ID. How can I get their pictures to appear in my messaging and my caller ID?
Everyone here needs to say what ROM they are using. HTC Sense does things different then cm7. sense 3.0 may do thing different then 2.1 or 1.0. Also are you using the "Sync" in the facebook application or are you using the accounts sync in htc sense?
I dont think anyone here has enough information to answer your questions at this point.
One thing you may want to do is add that one contact as a contact in gmail (if that is what you sync contact with) and see if that contact gets linked with the facebook person.
Hope that helps, and good luck

i am having the same problem with only one fb contact not showing in my android samsung epic touch galaxy 2 stock OS not showing. THE NAME MATCHES PERFECTLEY.(even when names dont match perfectly... there is one contact for the fb name and one phone contact spelled differently and not linked.) i have done everything you have tried also with no results... im pissed. ive unfriended him and refriended him twice. PLEASE HELP
hi,
i've upgraded from a DHD, after syncing with facebook and putting my details in, the contacts in my contacts app dont all show the facebook profile picture.
Some do.....unsure why, but not the majority......
Never had this issue with my desire and my desire hd
i could wipe the phone and start again, or remove facebook data and then re-add
i'm also wondering about how HTC actually saves this data also, like since its related to my gmail account, some of the images may have saved to some of my contacts that way, making me think that they have the facebook profile pic attached, when in fact its not, its google saving this image to my address book, rather than the phone receiving this from my facebook contacts (yeah i know, i'm not too good at explaining this)
Bottom line, my phone address book includes facebook contacts, many of which dont actually have any profile pics attached to their contact on my phone.
PS: I'm just gonna wipe and start again, and see what happens
it happens on mine too. was wondering~
any solution so far?
I did a hard reset, it helped a little as now more of my contacts are showing facebook profile pic, but still not all

I believe this is an ICS (Android 4.0) issue. Get Haxsync from the Market (argh, Play Store). It resolves this.
