When I send an SMS message I see pictures for my contacts but my sent SMS picture is blank. (I'm assuming a picture of me.) If I click on the blank picture it says "The contact does not exist." I tried adding myself and my cell number to my Google contacts thinking it might add my picture from there but it doesn't seem to work.
I know this is a very minor issue but any suggestions?
Thanks!
I'm having the same issue, anybody have a solution?
It shows my google+ picture on mine, running stock rooted.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I just click on it and the larger contact picture pops up, blank of course. From there I am able to edit it and add a picture for myself.

when I try to click on the stock image (not for the contact that i'm messaging but for my own picture), its saying the same thing as sdmf91 pointed out, "The contact does not exist", its driving me nuts
Really? I just clicked on mine and it pops up a picture less popup with my name at the bottom. From there I can click on the picture and edit it like I would a normal contact.. did you guys put your name in the "this phone belongs to" section when setting up the phone? I did that and I think that could have something to do with why yours say "this contact does not exist"
Actually I didn't put anything in there come to think of it and im not sure how to even get back to that screen...Is there another way to enter that information?

Figured it out!!
Under applications, open "people" and on the top there's a section where it says "Me", click on that and input your info/picture and presto! Headache gone!
Have the latest Nexus. Unable to add "Facebook" as contact account. I select Facebook after "add account" and it doesn't seem to add them in.
It's not allowed on ICS. I used FriendCaster and this worked perfectly! The only annoying thing is the low resolution of photos... But that's not a Friendcaster's problem...

With HaxSync, do you have the option to only sync with your existing contacts?
With Friendcaster, you can only sync all contacts, so all of your Facebook friends show up in your contacts.
I bought HaxSync and can say it blows. It often doesn't pair up phone contacts with Facebook contacts. This means having doubles.
Android 2.0.3 will resolve this issue and I would suggest waiting a few weeks

back up your original apk's before doing this manual mod. read comments, someone's phone got borked.
Borked is now a meme!
Can anyone confirm if 4.03 fixes this?
This is a pretty big omission. Wasnt social network updates in the people app was one of the major features announced with ics?
why not get an aftermarket rom that supports this???
Option B.. Friendcaster... IMO this is the best option.... i dont see a problem with my contacts.. i have 1324 fb friends.. all you gotta do is go to People.. Accounts... and just remove friendcaster from your contacts to be displayed and wallaaa.. you dont have a crapload of contacts in your list..
SyncMyPix > Haxsync
So there's SyncMyPix, HaxSync, and Friendcaster.
Which ones sync with existing contacts well so people don't get their huge facebook friend list in their contacts?
Which ones are able to deal with slight name changes for matching contacts and/or with/without middle name?
Which ones sync Hi Res pictures? (when I researched this a little while back, only HaxSync did this)

hands down the best solution at this point.
Another option is this
http://heartofangel.com/google-contact-sync/
you run it on your desktop and it syncs facebook contacts to Gmail.

This is by far the best way, Thank You very much.
Using this method you can correct and manually(quickly) link accounts with different names and dont need bloatware on your phone.

Hi guys, Im the dev of Root Call Blocker, a powerful blocking solution. There have been a few reports of people experiencing issues with the data connection on the S3, which i dont have.
Could someone please let me know if this is indeed the case?
If you do find an issue please follow this procedure:
- as soon as you spot the radio without a data connection (not after a call) send logs through the "Write to us" item in Settings
- once youve sent the report, try using the Debugging tools found in settings
- if the tools do not help, please send another report - this will still help me track issues

The only other option is Call Master, which we also make and also costs that amount. Every few weeks we have sales, so youre welcome to wait.
IT DOES NOT DO THE SAME THING AS MR NUMBER.
1.8.3.21
Fixed issue that lead to intermittent blocking on JB and CM10
I have a question:
When I am on a call, and a call comes in that is on my Blacklist, will that incoming call be Blocked without disconnecting my existing call?
All other Blocking apps disconnect my existing call, including 'Ditched' Callers with Youmail
I already purchased your app, and would just like to know this, as this situation doesn't come up often.
Although me and the developer has had our differences.....I have to say root call blocker and call master even more so are the best call blocking apps in existence for android phones. Only real issues may be data/signal loss on occasion. I'm running the FreeGs3 ROM with the jellybomb theme...I have experienced data loss on occasion...I will try to send the logs as soon as it happens.
ftgg99,
I wanted to know if I may make a request. On call master I have all my blocked numbers within the app itself under a list. When one of the numbers or sms are captured by Call Master it does not give the name of the blocked caller....just the number. Is there any way to associate the names with the blocked calls. It works fine when the numbers are within the stock contacts list but not when the numbers are only within the app.
Also, when adding contacts to the built-in block list, is there anyway to have the list auto sort by name....similar to the stock contacts list?
Yes.

For you its differences, for me - policy.
Welcome back. Youre no longer in my list.
Are you saying that contacts you creted throught e app (ie - add/number/name) are not being shown as names in the internal logs? Because they are for me...
What is "stock" for you?

Thank you sir....its good to be off punishment...lol.
You are correct....all my contacts have been manually entered (ie - add/number/name) and are not being shown as names.....they just show as numbers in the internal logs. So when a blocked text or call is logged I have to go inside my list to search thru numbers to see which name matches the blocked number.
Also, when adding new entries to the internal contact list it just puts new entries at the bottom of the list as opposed to auto sorting the list in alphabetical order. I was hoping you could add auto sort feature.
Stock means when I used to have my lists just reference a contact group from my phone the internal log always attached a name with the number.
I prefer to use the manual internal contact list because it is more private.

Currently the mms from block contacts still stay in native sms app....they do not get blocked. however i still want the mms messages from the people in the blocked list...i just dont want them discovered. hopefully this feature will be fixed and include the option to save mms as well as block.
also it would be nice to have an auto sort feature when using the in app contact list. when i add a name and number to the cm internal contact list....the entry goes to the bottom of the list instead of being automatically sorted alphabetically. once the number of entries gets long it becomes difficult to find names when not in alphabetical order.
sms sometimes leaves a blank message in the external sms app with the name of the last person i sent a message from in my in app contact list. or sometimes if i am going back and forth between messaging someone in my block list and someone who is in my normal contact list....the message to the blocked person will sometimes have both contacts in the 'send to' instead of just the blocked one. Both of these issues definitely compromise the privacy.

wrong forum.
Thread no longer needed as we have this device. Closed.
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+".)

It shouldn't...depends how you set up the notifications but I don't see any settings that would cause it to drain battery

Very good application. I'm using this one to search and manage my contacts. Trying to find more themes for it.
Anyone knows how to enable the described whatsapp integration?
I selected whatsapp as tool for the contacts but nothin happens...
I use CallApp Contacts, anyone else? Is this worth the change?
Thanks for the recommendation, it's absolutely beautiful! The integration is incredible, too! The beauty of Android

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.
The Honor 7 is a fantastic phone, but the contact management app is missing some features:
1. Manual Merge of the contacts. Even if has auto merge, this function doesn't catch all the duplicates, this is normal, but at that point should allow a fast merge or link of contacts.
2. Picture Sync. Management. There is a way to import pictures.... but some times take Skype, some times Whatsapp, some times facebook, there is not direct control.
3. General Layout Graphics Control. While for the other apps of contacts managemet you can see division by letter, the Huawei-Honor Emui lay-out is not separate, and letters and really small in the side.
I see these features are missing also in the last Huawei P9, I hope we can get an update with these ones.
The best ones:
1. Show the area where you dialed. Very useful when you have contacts that have phones in 2 different cities.
2. Lost calls in red
3. Possibility to call with any one of the linked apps from the contact list.
I think this apply to all EMUI 4 and EMUI 4.1 phones
