When You Add A Contact You Can Add a picture To Him There is the photo icon choose to place your contact on google its much butter
Create a contact for yourself. And also make sure that in call settings>additional settings that you have your phone number in there aswell

I'm using DeFroST at the moment and am wondering how I can set 'my' contact picture. Other contacts are coming up in SMS threads, etc. but mine isn't and I can't find where to change/add it
Anyone care to point it out (if possible)?

This does not work if you already have your contact and do an update or install another rom. The following will work.
STEP ONE:
(Skip this step if you allready have a contact for yourself in you address book!)
Add a contact called (Me, Mine, Your Name)"who ever you want" with your phones 10 digit number, Join it with Google, Facebook and set a contact picture just like a normal contact.
STEP TWO:
Navigate to the following:
Menu:
Settings:
Call Settings:
Additional settings:
My phone number:
Enter your phone number "0000000000"
And your Picture from your contact address book will apear next to your sms.
bump app will create the 'my' contact too - or it did last time I used it
Just had this issue myself.. fixed it by making sure i had the Facebook For HTC account properly syncing, then adding the friendstream widget on a homescreen and letting it sync. then my picture was everywhere I was hehe
Hope that helps yours, I dont know much about that rom
The title says it all, but I will try to explain it more. So I have a contact that's linked to a facebook, so the contact's photo is taken from facebook. When I edit the contact, tab on the photo, change it with one from my gallery, then save the contact, it shows me again the facebook photo, not the one that I've chosen from the gallery.
Stock Froyo...
Anyone any thoughts about this?
Yeah, I have the same problem, no one bothered to help me, lets try again
If you view the contact in HTC People, tap on where it says "Linked" in the top right corner. Then tap on the photo - you can then choose from all the pictures you have assigned to the contact - including from facebook, google, camera and gallery etc.
yeah but it doesn't change them no matter what I choose
thanks anyway
if you know how to remove the f****ng FB contacts from the dialer I will apreciate it very much
Think you have to unlink.

You don't hv to unlink.. Be sure to display the "main" contact is either phone or google contact, whichever u changed the picture. Pick from drop down list..
If u don't wanna see FB friends, just uncheck it from People - Menu - View, uncheck facebook for htc

It did actually work this time, strange I did the same thing several times before and it didn't
I was talking about the ones at the bottom of the dialer, I got rid of the others a while ago, but it still displays the ones that have phone numbers in the dialer
thanks guys
Well... before i had my nexus one and in it i had pics for all my contacts so when i would text everyone would have their little face in the chat. And when i would text i simply put a pic in the VOice mail contact and that was the pic for my responses.
For some reason this doesnt work on the G2. It's just a grey square and what i described doesnt work... anyone know how to change the default gray pic in the messaging app ??
I was able to do it by saving my number as a contact and then adding a pic of my choice to it.

Any ideas ??

I was wondering why no one has asked this. I have the same issue... so photo caller ID also looks horrible. I found when I assign a photo to a contact, it stays high-res for a bit and then becomes low-res. Anyone has a solution for this?
This is because when you sync your contacts to Google, it automatically reduces the resolution. Read http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4147 . Solution I found were to either stop contacts sync completely or to create an additional contact in phone memory, add a high quality photo and then link your Google contact with that new phone contact.

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?
