I would like to change the layout and size of the photo on the caller id/incoming call screen.
I've seen Photo Contacts Pro - not interested. I just want to use the regular contacts system but have a better incoming call screen. At least a larger photo. This can't be that hard of a hack eh?

Thanks Sebastian, but after trying it, I don't like it. It doesn't seem to work quite like the rest of WM5/6.
All I really want is an app that allows me to redesign the incoming/outgoing caller screen and use the photos already linked in the contacts database on the phone.
Ah well. Looks like I'll be waiting for someone to write it.

I am using the XDA Mobile 6 r2a ROM and all is well except the dialer.
The contact's picture shows up very tiny. So my question is which
dialer for WM6 shows the largest picture?
Ummm..... Now I'm using NBD 8.0, very nice. May decide to keep vs cooking my own. All it needs IMO is MuN keyboard, Calc lite & Novii remote toy!
Still question is, which dialer shows the largest / biggest / contact / picture / photo? So far I'm seeing teeny tiny contact pics and that's not too great.
I HAVE searched these posts but I keep missing! ANY help would be appreciated.

Show us a nice screen capture
Depends on which picture you want bigger. When someone is calling you and there number pops up, and you have a photo associated with them, if that is what you want big, then I would leave it at the default wm6 dialer. Not the one you have, which I believe is from the HTC touch rom. Now if you mean the photo on the dialer itself when you are making a call or on a call, Then the biggest picture I've seen is using Pauly Eten Dialer Classics. They show a very big picture on the dialer itself. Hope that helps
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a shot this week and report my results.
Hi
I've seen a lot of beautifull and usefull app from the Tech Wizards around here. I thank you all for that... But I'm suprised that nobody created a small app for a Full Screen Dialer ID... The build in one from WMobile is just crapp!!
s2u2 has a full screen caller id, but it uses original contacts pictures which are too small for full screen, so it doesn't look good. someone mentioned that s2v also has caller id, and the difference is that if you assign picture to contact from s2v it will be in original size. however, you will not have this picture as default outlook contact picture, so if you plan to change rom or device or hard reset you must assign all the pictures again through s2v. i guess that no full screen caller id will be interesting until pictures for outlook contacts are so small.
You're supposed to use S2U2 and S2V in conjunction with each other for the best quality caller IDs
I need a good soft wich shows the photo of the calling person in a conveniet size!
Not the strechy and tiny default sized photo call of WM6!!
Any good ideas?
Yes!!
I think an app like that would be great!
Also, if anyone knows if you can change the call in progress animation on the i600?
Cheers
Hello
Since sensation has high resolutions screen contact number fonts in contact list is very small. It is very difficult to read after 40 years of age
This is one of the basic function of this device. It is very difficult to see without to magnifier. Pinch to zoom works elsewhere but not here.
Could you tell me a way to see text in contacs program without carrying magnifier in my pocket
Thanks
Have you tried installing a different font?
Maybe you need to change you glassess. My common sense saying you are wearing glasses
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
It looks like htc has forgatten to announce that People over 40 needs to buy glasses together with sensation even if they dont need normally
System font shange affects many things. It changes design completely I think
That is why I am looking for another solution
HTC keeps forgetting that not everyone has perfect eyesight, I have trouble reading many HTC applications and widgets. Most annoying to me was/is* the Calendar app: Appointment details usually span less than 35% of the screen, and you can't zoom in. Contacts are also an issue, but I usually tap phone and start typing the name on the numeric keypad, I keep typing until one name is left, which I then tap to call / send message / ..
I am happy with the SMS Application and Mail application though - pinch-to-zoom works on both now (Previously it would only work on Mail I believe).
*: I use Simple Calendar Widget by Alex Gavrishev, which is fully customizable.
you forgot incoming calls as well ...
font is just wayyyyyy too small !!! HTC expects all of my contacts to have PICTURES

Yes, You absoultely right
For example, When driving, or doing something else It is impossible to see phone numbers during incoming calls
This is a phone and We should see contact names and phone number easily and clearly. This is highest priority I think

Has anyone tried editing the build.prop to change the lcd density to a higher number, I have decreased it to make everything look smaller, it only rewins the lockscreen when I do that, I haven't tired making everything bigger by increasing the number.. anyone want to be a guinea pig?
Sorry if this is the wrong forum for my question but I thought I would start here. I have an Nexus 5 and love AOSP style SMS applications. I don’t like how most show incoming pictures as a slide show. To be specific if someone sends 1 picture it displays as normal, if someone sends 2 pictures at one time it displays as a slide show. Hate it! I know some SMS apps don’t do this but it has been my findings that AOSP style SMS apps do. I really like Slide SMS for the customization and the close AOSP styling but the incoming photo processing drives me nuts! Is there and easy fix for this? Any input from the community would be great. Thank you in advance.
