is there any app able to do this? whenever a i get an incoming call is it possible to make the contact picture larger? or fullscreen?
im a noob as many of you can see, so also my nexus is unrooted
thanks in advance!
I want this so bad too. wish there was some way to change it but there were some Hero Roms for my old G1 that would make them larger but then they were blurry / usharp. So you would have to have some way of using a higher resolution picture for all your contacts. In short I would assume it is possible, maybe some one know how.

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.
I guess this normally isnt such an issue but Ive been using the slide2unlock program which is pretty neat. Anyways it can do full screen caller id pictures which is great. However, it ends up just zooming in on my picture and looks like crap. The pic I used is a 2mp picture so its gotta be fairly large (well larger than the screen thats for sure)... Anyways anyway in general to get higher quality images out of WM6? And if anyone know in relation to Slide2Unlock as well that would be great
Thanks
anyone know?
do u have the link to this program?
I guess to save space the phone saves the contact picture with certain compression and size. Slide2Unlock just use the contact picture that you have assigned to that contact and stretches it because it's too small.
I belive you have no option to use a bigger image, it's a OS "feature" to save space/memory and improve speed.
But I may be extremely wrong.
It's not what is asked, but I suggest you to use Photo Contact Pro
with the caller id actived... in the S2U the image in fullscreen mode.... its to bad like a gaussing blur image... i re-size for 150x159 pixels... and the problem is the same...
how to have a highehr quality images in the caller id..... thanx
I posted on this subject in another thread before:

I hope there are useful info in there.
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.

When I recieve a new MMS message from someone in my contact list that I have assigned a picture to, the standard WM6 notification that shows the sender, and their photo comes in at the very bottom of the screen and it is half cut-off.
Hopefully this makes sense.
Is there any way I can fix this?
Thanks
Another bump...
Can anyone send me in the right direction (besides the search ) for this one?
hrm. which ROM? which device?

I have a kaiser with a stock ROM.
I'm sure this has to do with PCM, and S2V. When you use either of these apps to assign contact photo's the higher resolution is also shown on the notification bubble/window when you recieve an MMS message.
But instead of some sort of "auto adjust", the notification window comes in on the same place on the today screen, but the window is half cut off.
hehe... i think you answered yourself.

Yeah, I know what's causing it, but I want to know how to *fix* it without having to possibly reassign all of my contact pic's with the WM6 contact manager.
Is there something in the registry that can adjust where the notification shows up on the screen??
what i meant was... that you'd probably need to either use it as is or talk to one of the developers to see how to fit the pics differently... or it would throw itself back to different res.
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?
