Hello,
I'm having an issue when setting a profile picture for my contacts. I took the picture using the One X's camera with the highest possible resolution settings. I then select a contact and choose to set a photo from the gallery. From there I set the (cropped) photo I just took. However if I now open the contact's profile, the picture is quite pixelated. This shouldn't be the case considering the high resolution original image.
How can I fix this? Many thanks.

save the contact pictures on you phone then edit each contacts and change the picture to wherwe you save the new pictures on your phone . and it will be ok.
outlook makes the pictures look low res, & when you reconnect phone to pc it will not get rid of the new pictures.
but the correct res is 256x256 @ 72 DPI
When using the dialer it looks like the phone is just increasing the size of low resolution photo that was synched to the contact.
Is there a way to increase the resolution so the photos can look better?
Is the problem with the contact photo resolution limit imposed by the way the contact cards were designed? I ask this because when browsing through your contacts the small thumbnail looks great, but when using the dialer it looks like the thumbnail the the required resolution and the large photo in the dialer is just a zoomed in version.
Maybe I'm not being clear but i think i got the point across.
Hi..
I just got a HTC HD7..
Just a quick questions about the pictures that I have assigned on the tiles..
For the pictures that I assigned on the tiles eg. Contacts, Me and Pictures tiles..
The pictures turn out to be low res..
Even the people tile also has low res pictures..
Is that normal?
Any workaround?
I noticed this too. I thought it was because I have my contacts synched from my Google account that did this.
I noticed that if I make a new contact and instead of using my Google account and set it to Windows Live, and add a picture, the quality of the contact tile picture seems a bit higher.
This is the same issue as what I've encountered using iPhone too. I suspect its because when you set a profile pic within Outlook, the picture is auto downsized to a lower resolution.
However, if you set the picture via iphone itself for example, it will store and continue to use the new higher res pic
I did try to assign the picture from my gallery.. The picture was high res for some time.. After that it reverted to low res..

i have seen the same in my mozart also.
Specially for incoming calls.
Even though I have added a new contact and assigned a pic to him using the pic captured from the 8 mp cam on Mozart (Which is pretty crisp and clear) when the contact calls me I see a low resolution pic coming in my screen..
Hope this is something MS would be able to sort out in their updates
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?

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.
