Contact picture problem ( solved) (pics updated 27 dec) - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sir,
I use xperia arc 2.3.4. On changing the contact picture , it fills only one fourth part of screen i.e. we can not select whole picture. I could set full screen picture using SE sync service which is no longer available. Then , how to set full sized picture as shown below in link? Any software or cloud service??

Do you use Gmail? Gmail only allows 50x50 profile pictures, else you will have to disable sync.

[Q] Best Image format for contacts

Hi,
I have all my contacts synced from Exchange Server account.
Some of them have a picture added and does not display correctly on the phone. (streched or cropped image), but some of them appear nice.
Is there a special format or size recommended that fits the screen resolution??

[Q] 2.3.4 Contact Picture messed up?

Hey guys,
Previously on 2.3.3, my contact pictures will be small but I will just have to pick a picture from my gallery, crop it to the required 16:9 and it will not swap with the tiny google ones.
I noticed now that when I pick an image from the gallery, crop it to 16:9, it will appear as it should(large) in my contacts for a second until it syncs with Google, then it is cropped back to the tiny 50x50 image again.
Anyone have a workaround for this?

[Q] JB High-resolution contact photos?

I read that one of the features of JB is high-resolution contact photos. I'm on JB now but I don't seem to be able to make high-resolution contact photos appear on the People app. I tried changing the contact photos on Google through a computer but after sync the photos still appear blurry in the People app of my GNex. I know I can get a high resolution photo to appear by changing them directly on my phone by selecting an image in Gallery, but this trick has been around since ICS. So what does 'high-resolution contact photos' mean in JB?
From what I have experienced, the first time you set up your contact photos from the contacts app (i.e. going into the contact --> edit --> set picture from gallery) google will keep that high resolution picture backed up in it's database. So let's say you set up your contacts, wipe your data, and load a new or stock rom. Then your contact app will repopulate the original high-res images you set in the first place, not the 256x256 resolution or whatever that they used to keep backed up before JB.

[Q] Gallery send pics to Sony tv on Cyanogenmod.

When I was running the stock rooted T-Mobile ICS rom I was able to send pictures to my tv from the gallery.
When viewing a picture in Gallery a button in the top right corner of the screen would show to send to another display. When I clicked that it would automatically send the image to my Sony Bravia (on the same wifi network).
Is it possible to do this in the default gallery on CM10 or is that only a TouchWiz feature?
thanks

[Q] Album upload to Flickr

I tried to upload a photo to Flickr using Sony Album V 6.0.A.0.26 on my Z1 compact.
Nothing happens after invoke the upload (share).
Photos that are saved on Flickr are shown when I choose "Flickr" in menu.
So the credentials are correct set for the sync account.
Has somebody an idea about this ?
