Low res contact pictures

Hi everyone. In the people app the pictures in ics are all low res. Anyone have any ideas to get the high res pictures? I find it odd that ics wouldnt go out and get the high res pics from facebook etc.

The only solution I've found so far is to manually change contact pictures using high res photos on the phone.

Yes, but as soon as you sync with Google Contacts ... Those photos will become low res again.
And again, you must re-assign manually.
Stupid stupid stupid Google ...
So, is there any app or script that can we use to replace all contact photos at once?
First, we told the app ... "this is the image for this contact" ... for all contacts.
Then later, user can replace all with a button click!
Please ... please any developer can make this app? For sure a lot of people will buy to fix this stupid Google low res contact.
*begging* ... I will buy this kind of app, right away!

This is what gets me about Google - for all the good things they do, they are let down by silly details like this.

I have to agree. I was going over every item on the phone, and them my brother called and I was like, WTF ?

My contact photos haven't changed at all since I changed them to high res ones a few days ago...

Surely it has something to do with how much OTA data would be needed to sync hi res photos from gmail contacts to your phone..... I would rather have numbers than have them not sync because the pics are say 20mb each.... Thats why you havetoo set them from the phone.

So, in Google Contacts we should not put any photos?
In this way, when we sync, Google Contacts will not replace the photos that we have set manually?

They won't change on the phone, but the pictures sync back to Google Contacts as a low res 96x96 version.
That means if you need to restore your contacts for whatever reason (such as a factory reset), then you will get a crappy low res version back.

Google seem to be happy using the instant upload feature of G+ to send high res pictures back and forth, so I don't see why they can't enable it with Google Contacts.
Contact pictures will take up far less space, as they are cropped from a full image.

Google said that the contacts app will download peoples pictures from Google+
maybe you don't have that turned on, or maybe thats the only way to truly get high-res pictures. luckily for me all my main friends are on it already.

Yeah it looks like that may be the only way. I assume Google Contacts will be merged into G+ at some point, so there is just one place for all your contacts and issues like this won't happen.
Unfortunately for me only a handful of people I know actually use G+, so I can't rely on it at the minute.

i had this problem on my thunderbolt with the facebook app. the contact pics were very low res
my solution was to sync pics with the "facebook for HTC sense" app, and it worked. pics were beautiful. have you guys tried using an app like syncmypix?

I hope they enable this for facebook too in the future. Although I'm no big fan of FB and I can understand Google considering the cometitive situation, FB is still far more widespread than G+ and most of my friends don't want to join yet another social network.

Syncmypix syncs still in a quite low resolution, even if high res is enabled in the settings. And Syncmypix is definitely not optimized for 720p displays The actual app scales perfectly, but on the "crop" screen where you can edit the pics, every pic is really tiny. See screenshot below

Facebook Sync VZW

I know google and Facebook don't get along when it come to contacts. But is there a work around since i don't see the option to sync in the app. I don't care too much about the photos but more the numbers.

You can download friendcaster from the market which will sync contacts and pictures.
If you are interested in rooting and custom roms, Paul from Modaco has it working with the gsm version (still in beta, but it works). There isn't a LTE version yet, but if you're patient, I'm sure he'll be able to get a LTE version of his rom eventually. In the meantime, people have confirmed friendcaster works for now.

No methods that I know of yet ( GSM Galaxy Nexus) however you can sync pictures with contacts by navigating to the picture and clicking the menu button (3 dots) and clicking set as
Edit: it think friend caster works too

I could have sworn that the official Facebook app allowed for contact syncing. I guess it just hasn't been integrated for the GN yet? I really don't want to have to text all my friends and tell them to send me a picture of themselves. lol

Just download "SyncMyPix" from the market. Takes like 30 seconds to sync all of your contacts with their Facebook pictures. You can even set it to sync like once per day if you wanted to. I just use it once a week or so and it works perfectly (at least I did on one of my other phones, and I will here).
Used it on the way home from the Verizon store this morning and it had them all synced up before I was on the highway.

The Nexus phones don't do this. The Nexus One did, but that was before Google changed their policy. Facebook refuses to update to a different API that Google created for contact syncing/management and, as such, Google turns off their ability to sync on official devices.
Facebook's just too damned stubborn to make the (SIMPLE) change.

Thanks for that elaborate response! This is my first Nexus phone so I am still learning all the ins and outs of this thing. I will check out SyncMyPix now.

Any phone with vanilla android will no longer have contact sync with Facebook. (Been this way since the Nexus S) Unless Facebook starts using the API's Google provided them, which Facebook refused to do, this feature will not work unless you have an android overlay like sense, touchwiz, blur, or a custom rom that has enabled this feature.
If you don't want a custom rom, you will have to settle for apps from the market like friendcaster and syncmypics to work around the problem that isn't resolved between Facebook and Google, for now at least.

Unable to add facebook to contacts

Using Verizon 4.02, when ever I try to add facebook to "accounts and sync" under "accounts" under "people" it doesnt do anything. In short I am unable to add facebook for contacts. Even w twiter contacts syn it is saying "sync is currently experiencing problems. it will be back shortly." Anybody having similar problems?

You can't tell me you've searched, because if you had, you'd know this is 100% known. Facebook isn't playing ball with Google's requirements to be able to have contacts sync in AOSP Android.
Use an app like HaxSync to get Facebook contacts sync.
Twitter is also well known. Its Twitter's app not being updated properly for ICS.

sorry, must be irritating when people start new threads for old stuff, I only scanned first three pages of forums, havenot used search function as I am not good with it. Once contacts are in with Haxsync can one link them with existing contacts so they use the latest facebook pictures?

bought Haxsync works great, thanks for pointing towards right direction. Only thing missing is a 4G toggle, where 4g automatically kicks in anytime phone is connected to electric outlet and off when off electric juice.

There are apps like Tasker and Locale that do that and many other things. But you could always just get a toggle widget.

It is. The thing is that FB contact sync has been broken since the later stock AOSP 2.3 builds for the Nexus S. This isn't something new.

I used to be confused over this problem too but Google told me what happened. So I used HaxSync and it worked fine. However as a perfectionist I decided not to continue using it and flashed a ROM instead (not solely for this reason of course).

[Q] People app missing all facebook contacts

Hello, how are you?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM stock (yakuj) with Android 4.0.4 and Facebook app 1.9.0.
I added my facebook account and have the facebook app installed. I also checked for syncing contacts under Settings-> account & sync.
However, none of my facebook contacts show up at People app.
I tried deleting the account and re-adding it but I still have nothing.
I also tried to re-install facebook app, and still nothing.
Besides, I also tried to show only the facebook contacts changing the settings at People app->contacts to display->customize, but It didn't work either.
Furthermore, I tried to follow the steps on the link bellow, and It didn't work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928393
Please, Does someone have any clue of what can be happening?
I can't figure out why my facebook contacts don't shows at People app.
I appreciate any help you can give me,
Roger

because facebook sync is broken in stock android.

Native Facebook contact syncing has been left out of Android since Gingerbread 2.3.4!
Roman from AOKP made a "fix" to get Facebook contacts to sync but ...
"Unfortunately, the "fix" breaks Picasa upload functionality and exposes all of your contact data insecurely. Facebook and Twitter need to update their applications to use the correct API introduced in IceCream Sandwich." - Peter Alfonso
This is why some dev's like Pete and Team Douche (Cyanogenmod) have not incorporated this "fix".
If you want your Facebook Contacts synced I would suggest buying HaxSync from the Play Store! That's what I did ... Cheers

Here is your solution: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync&hl=en
It's not free, but it's well worth it. Works flawlessly and is under constant development.

Is HaxSync app the only workaround for this issue?
BTW, Is this an issue with Android 4.0.4, or Is this an issue of facebook app?

I wouldn't think Facebook will correct this issue if for nothing else other than spite. Your best option is i believe HaxSync its only 99 cents (less than you pay for a coffee) and it securely syncs your contacts, calender events including birthdays and downloads hi-res images of your contacts too. It adds more functionality than the old native sync.

Again, this is a facebook issue. Your easiest solution is to pony up 99 cents as I originally recommended, it'll give you everything you want and then some, I assure you.
Yes the other solution works, but it comes with other issues and requires a bit more effort. You can decide what's more worthwhile to you - spend the time and effort for a broken solution or spend 99 cents to get everything you need easily.

Actually..the API is there since 4.0.3. Facebook just doesn't care enough to implement it.

yes basically its the facebook app because its not doing it right ... there was some sort of back story there about fb not wanting to work with google on the issue because fb wanted to take all of the google (gmail) contacts information or something like that.
I think the facebook sync solution you have found there is how Roman from AOKP came up with the "fix" or workaround. That information is more for developers than end users like yourself and obviously is not an easy solution. Again this is not secure syncing either which is why a few respected developers refuse to implement it.
imo HaxSync is the way to go ... fb contacts, hi res images with time line and calendar sync so it offers more than the "fix"

I used to use Friendcaster to sync before I got HaxSync but it used to sync really low rez pictures that looked horrible. Don't know if they have fixed this issue since then but you could just try it out. The app is free anyway.

Contacts+ - the best Android contacts app ever

Just thought I'd let you folks know about Contacts+ (previously called ContApps, I think), the contacts app I'm using on my stock N4.
It is totally packed with features (chiefly, integration with social networks, WhatsApp integration and smart ordering), looks absolutely lovely, and just elevates the Android experience when using a smartphone as, you know, a phone (which is something I feel that smartphones are getting less smart at doing..).
As an added bonus, it pimps out your SMS and call log appearance and functionality as well.
The team that build it are also really responsive and quite pleasant to interact with.
(I can't post links because I'm a few posts too short still, but it's easily enough found on the Play Store by searching for "Contacts+".)

Hey,
There should be a Whatsapp button in the left sidebar (next to the Facebook, messaging, etc) whenever you open a contact that has Whatsapp as well.
If this doesn't work properly, check the FAQ question "Does Contacts+ integrate with Whatsapp" at: Contacts+ settings > FAQ.
Or send us an error report via Contacts+ settings > feedback > report an issue.
Thanks!

I sure think so, but I'm biased :laugh:
Contacts+ had been downloaded over 1 million times, and has a 4.4 rating, so I'd say it's worth a try...
Please let us know what you like/dislike about it, we listen closely to our users, and we try to release new improved versions every 1-2 weeks.
A new version was just released yesterday with a couple of new features like a new screen showing your recent messages with a specific contact.
You can suggest new features or report problems in Contacts+ settings > feedback.

New themes are coming soon... stay tuned for lots of new features as well!

Does this contact manager support adding multiple nicknames to 1 contact? I have 2 nicknames that I want to assign to 1 of my contacts but the stock app only allows 1 nickname to be assigned. I would gladly use this app if it had that feature. Also does it still sync with my gmail account/gmail contacts?

will try this on my sensation.
will it uninstall ok ?

How is this app free? Out of the goodness of your hearts? Are you exporting the contact data anywhere?

I'd be interested to hear what Contacts+ have to say about that too.
That said, GoSMS, GoContacts are free as are millions of others. Just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean they are harvesting data.

Contacts+ is nice, however it is constantly the highest battery drain on my phone, even above Screen.
