I've noticed when trying to set a pic as a contact photo it keeps placing a certain pic in my gallery. i even tried deleting the pic and it keeps popping up when i set a different pic to a contact. it's weird. has anyone else experienced this issue or know of a fix or is it just a bug in the rom? running blazer rom v1.7 no theme.

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone using Handcent/Go SMS has their MMS pictures turn upside down or sideways? Wondering if this is a common issue.
It looks like it only sends upside down when the picture is taken with the camera button on the left in landscape mode, and turns sideways when the picture is in portrait.
Any way around this?
I have the same problem!! Not cool at all. Hope soemeone will help us out
It seems to be a problem related to samsung phone. I have this temporary fix for you. Before sending the desired pictures you have to go in gallery select the picture and crop it and save it you're picture wont turn sideways. Quite annoying to do but at least it works.
I've read up on it before and it's supposedly because of the 'metadata' standard which they (SAMSUNG) use. Never supposed to use your camera in portrait mode supposedly...
Even though; how come none of the SMS apps let you rotate a picture in-app? Very amateur stuff.
I have this problem with galaxy s2 but my samsung corny pro was fine. What annoyed me abouth this phone too is that you can t set different sms tone for you're contact and was able to do so with my older corny pro
I`m having this issue on my Skyrocket any way to fix this, I love go sms pro, but cant live with this upside down pictures
same here
Mate of mine and I are having the exact same issue, pics taken in portrait are displaying in landscape (although my landscape tests so far seem to be displaying properly).
My mate and I have the same setup, as follows:
SGSII i9100
ROM: FoxHound GreyFox v2 - XWLP9 (ICS 4.0.3)
Kernel: Siyah v3.2.5.1+
Modem: XXLPB
Go SMS Pro is the SMS/MMS app.
Also, just for reference, when I test this process (adding a pic to an SMS) using the default android messaging app it always attaches correctly...
As a side note, I've also noticed that when you open the normal image gallery, the thumbnail is showing the photo in landscape but when you click on the thumbnail to open it it opens correctly in portrait, so I'm guessing, as suggested above, that it's not specific to the messaging app but something to do with the storage of the image.
Anyone got any further details/info on this and how to resolve it?
Have this same issue on GoSMS Pro. Anyone find a fix for it?
Hey guys, here's my current set up:
ROM: Darkside Evolution 2 Beta02
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623430
Theme: STOCK-AOSP for ICS 4.0.3 - UPDATED 5-8 *UVLC8 UPDATED*
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568128
So after flashing the ICS SMS apk, I noticed that none of my contact photos were showing in the messaging app. It seemed like only the contacts with a Google+/Gmail account with an associated photo showed up in messaging-none of the facebook photos seemed to have showed.
Is there a work around this problem to get the facebook photos to show or is this just a known problem?
use one of the facebook syncs in the market
Hey,
Anyone know if it is possible to get a contact shortcut to update its picture when facebook does? The contact picture, etc all updated... but the icon on my homescreen won't update even though the picture updated everywhere else? Running CM9 w/ Apex.

I've had varying degrees of success with different roms working or not with FB pic update. Currently I am having good luck on the Energy rom (which is awesome), but on the roms I was having issues with, I used syncmypix or something similar. though, I didn't care much for the fix, because it's just one more thing running in the background. If you are happy with your current rom, and have issues though - it's a good temp fix at least.
I am actually using HaxSync to get the pictures which is working fine. The problem is that the picture for the actual shortcut doesn't update. If I go into the contact the picture is correct.
i'm having a problem with my contacts.. i can't seem to change the pictures for any of them. when i try to select a new photo, after cropping the photo, a single photo becomes the contact picture. it happens to all my contacts.. anyone else experiencing this?
on kyanrom with jellybomb and fre3-gs3..
I found strange that pictures in Gallery app are not displaying in desired order. I mean if in settings are checked "Sort by latest". then in preview pictures are not ordered in such way.
Do others have the same issue?
Of course, it is not a mission critical bug , but very annoying.
Are you using stock rom or custom rom?
I always noticed that it uses the latest image from within the folder to sort the gallery. In stock rom the camera album always shows first.
