Is there anyway to change the stock image for contacts from the grey packman style head to some other image?
I'm assuming you mean all at once and not one at a time? Im sure you know you can change them one at a time.. I don't know of an app that will change them all at once sorry.
yeah I was thinking if you could just replace the file somewhere with the one you want.

Good idea, i just wish someone would program up a app to inject high resolution contacts instead of pulling the low res crap from Google.

Is it possible to resize the photo when you make a call?
Is that I find that the size of the picture when a call is very small and there was enough room for larger.
When I had the HTC Magic, made a modification of contacts.apk making the picture was bigger.
Does anyone know it?
Thanks
Hey, there a application on the market called fullscreen callerid which makes that image fullscreen which could be what your looking for.

If you already know, but the question is to modify the original application of SGS, not to have 2 applications that do the same function.
Thank you very much for responding
Hi,
I was using one ROM for a while, and just switched. I want to take the wallpaper with me though. But I can't figure out how to do it. I copied the images to the system\customize\resource folder, but when I go to HTC wallpapers, I do not see it. Any hints?
Thanks
You can just take the image and search for it on gallery then set it from there.

Ok. I see the picture. Gallery isn't the funnest way to find it. But when I select it, it makes me select a region of the picture to display. On the old ROM, it was just a wallpaper. I didnt' have to select a region, and the entire image displayed.
I would like to edit my empty place holder image that shows up in Contacts and MMS when there is no picture.
I would also like to find the one for the picture of the person that shows up during a call.
I am running inverted People/MMS/Gmail apps that this just ruins the look.
Can someone point me at the images so I can pull it and photo-shop it darker and replace it?
Thanks
Try these locations...
/system/framework/framework.jar
/system/framework/framework-res.jar
Might want to try exploring the people Apk as well
Hope this helps

Thanks I will.
Does anyone know how to change the default contact/caller ID photo for the Galaxy Nexus? I hate the new weird face they have. I'm talking about the image that is present when the contact doesn't have a picture assigned. It also shows up on the Caller ID for anyone that's not in your phonebook, or in the phonebook without a pic.
I'd prefer the little android robot.
Any ideas? Help would be much appreciated.
i think theres a thread in the theme section that has images metamorph zips
i forget what its called but try typing in something like "andy's back contact picture"
good luck
The image is in Contacts.apk. You can just replace it with what you want.

where would I find contacts.apk? Also can I change the default picture without screwing up my phone?
Hello everybody!!
I have a question about setting the default browser on my Galaxy S III, Im currently using Dolphin Browser and I know about the option in the settings to make it the default browser. But when I use the default "Web" Icon on the homescreen it still opens the Browser that came with the phone. I tried downloading apps that "change" the default apps used but still opens the wrong one... I had gotten this to work for my other S III and Galaxy Note before i had to return it due to a dead pixel but ive had no luck in getting it working again... if anybody knows anything on how to get this set correctly i would greatly apprecaite it!!
Thanks in advanced!!

Oh, wait. I think I misunderstood your question. You want the globe icon that says internet to open Dolphin? Not sure if that is very feasible.
That icon is like an icon on your computer (I.e. it is not a shortcut). That icon is specifically for the stock internet app.
But, it's probably possible. I would start a new thread about how to change icons of apps. I use Nova Launcher and I can rename icons, but not change the picture. But, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than me know how.
It is possible I've done it before but I am not able to recall how I did it lol

Oh.
Well, if you don't figure it out, I found this today: http://android.appstorm.net/how-to/...guide-to-customizing-your-home-screen-icons/

DesktopVisualizer does exactly this!
