[Q] Contact Card Picture

How do you set your own picture? You know, in the messaging app where it says Me: but has the gray box there? When I was running Sense it grabbed my FB picture, but now it's blank. I tried setting up a contact with my number, email, and full name and it didn't work. I even tried setting the name to Me, still no dice. Anyone found out how to do this? I'm running CM7 right now.

Settings>Call settings>additional settings>set phone number
Then make a contact out of your number then put a picture..
Done..

I just added myself to my contact list because I text myself a lot of reminders and eventually put a pic for my own contact card thing.

Can we make a list of apps that support Jellybean notifications

Can we make a list of apps that support Jellybean notifications, would be nice to be using apps that support it.

so far itll be all the core google apps, tunein radio, and pulse i think.

Pulse doesn't, so far all I've seen are the core apps, Tunein, and Notification Toggles. Anyone see any other apps with it?

Can you post screen shots of notifications?
I do not get gmail,extended notification nor call back/SMS for missed calls

Twoons supports Jelly Bean notifications. It's a twitter client

Imgur For Android supports it too.

Multiple gestures work. Two finger pull down, two finger rotate, and two fingers pulling apart vertically all work.

How does it work on yours? It doesn't work on mine.

I think the stock SMS and Gmail apps could be doing a much better job of utilizing the new notification style. All they do is show expanded views of messages. I'd like the SMS app to give me quick access to calling the sender or deleting the message right from the notification, and Gmail should let me delete or archive messages without going into the app. The missed call notifications (where you can choose to call the person or send a message right from the notification) are how it should be done for all apps where it makes sense, and I don't know why they didn't do the same for SMS and Gmail. Maybe they will eventually.

I really wish I could archive from the notification in Gmail, get rid of useless messages fast

Battery Widget Reborn has Jellybean notifications..

What's the deal with pulse? They showcased jellybean notifications at Google I/o but there not available yet.

I thought there were? Will have to double check when pulse shows up on my notification bar and report back here

Foursquare has Comment and Like actions on checkins.

Pulse definitely doesn't do it. Unless this is something in settings?

Messaging apk and custom roms

I know this might sound trivial but this is the only ROM I've seen with customized messaging app that includes pop up, my question is how come no one includes a way in the ROM or app to set individual contact notifications without downloading another app

First of all, I have no idea what rom your talking about. I'm assuming ANYTHING based on CM10 or AOKP code.
Second, stock android has never had custom notifications for individual contacts. And to do this someone would actually have to code it! Maybe they'll get around to it, maybe they won't. Maybe it never crossed their minds because they don't use such a thing, or maybe because there's apps for that! but for native support, it has to be something a dev actually wants to have.
Not trying to be a douche either, just informing :highfive:

I am also running CNA 3.6.0 but I do not know where the option to set custom notification tone for individual contact. Can you help me please?

Honestly no where, to achieve this you need to go to messaging settings turn off notifications, go to play store download sms popup and enable it and then find contact notifications.

MIUI also includes sms popups in the stock app

Yes but those pop UPS don't support individual notifications as far as I know

Group MMS and Other Hidden Gems in Android 4.2 (on a Galaxy Nexus)

Well, There's a working Group MMS option in the stock messenger. Oh my GOD is this great! :good:
Anyone else find anything worth reporting?
Miracast is obviously not included on the GNex ROM as I doubt it has the hardware to support it.

I'm not sure if it was there before but I noticed that you can disable system apps now. Just go to Settings -> Apps -> All and select an app from there. If its a system app, the "Uninstall" option becomes "Disable". In my case I'm not using Currents and Google Talk so I had them disabled. Now they are hidden and don't show up in the App Drawer.
*EDIT: NVM. Apparently "its been there since forever" as the guy below replied to me.
*EDIT2: Ok. I've read that the feature to "disable" system apps was slightly improved in 4.2. Before, you need to uninstall updates first before you can disable a system app. Now you can disable system apps directly without the need of uninstalling the updates first. That was the reason I thought disabling system apps is new in 4.2. When I was in 4.1.x I just see the "Uninstall Updates" button.

It's in Settings > Display and the options are Clock, Colours, Currents, Photo Frame, Photo Table (this is very nice and interactive).
You also have the following options for when to daydream; while docked, while charging and either.

I was just going to post about this. Lol.
I think there are minor aesthetic changes, as well. When you are in messaging, compose a message and are choosing a recipient from your contacts there is now shading underneath the box with the recipient. I don't think this was in 4.1.2 or lower. The font also seems a little bolder in the messaging threads, most notably for me with the font being set to small.

Does the group messaging work with other platforms (iPhone, Blackberry, WP7/8)? In other words, did they finally decide to bake in threaded MMSes into 4.2?

Best and unexpected thing I found (and the ONLY reason I stay on 4.2 now)
- Active call (phone) now works in LANDSCAPE mode - so you no longer look like an idiot when you have a carmount and need to tilt your head 90 degrees!!!!!!!!!!

Yes sort of but how would I do that?

Well.. I'm using a Nokia phone so I don't know how yours work, but in my phone there are 2 options:
a) Click new message then press options and send business card
b) At the contacts list press options and send business card
I hope this helps

I did some quick research and checked the SMS options. I think if you need to send a contact card you'll need to use a third party app from the play store. Did you have that function before without a third party app?

Ahh. I see. That's not stock AOSP. Sense usually adds features to their apps.
Try go SMS or handcent. I say check go first due to the issue with handcent on JB on this phone.
