Resolution for favorites

I've been trying to get the perfect resolution for my favorites with my TP. And for some reason, no matter what size the photo is, the same thing happens. Can anyone help?

It has been mentioned before but not in a while,
add the contact to favourites
then select change picture through the favourites menu

Tried that. Same result.
I haven't tried it yet but I think the answer was in part that the contact photo cannot be the outlook/exchange photo. Move the photo to your Fuze then set it.

I'm takin' my photos straight from my storage card.

Cyanogenmod - Please list replacement apps here

What is a good replacement for the apps that worked on 2.1
HTC Facebook.
Swype - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687056&highlight=swype
I forgot I had to go into the system settings to enable Swype. I thought it would turn itself on by default so I could just select it from a long press in the search box.

Depending on what you want it for or how you use it; Socialite or SyncMyPic work best to mimic what could be done in sense with HTC Facebook.
Good post. I've been hunting to find a good gallery program to replace the 3d gallery. I tried just removing the 3d gallery apk from system/apps but then I cannot set a wallpaper (I wouldn't care of even having a "gallery" program but it seems like i cannot set wallpapers without it... i'm fine just using estrongs file manager to browser pics).

I originally posted this in the wrong thread, but flickie doesn't seem to do it. First off, its primary focus seems to be finding new wallpapers (and not to browse images already on the sd card).. secondly, it uses the same 3d gallery thing as the 3d gallery thats included in cyanogen. Am I missing something?
EDIT: Ok.. I think i'm just on crack... everything is working as I want it to now... who knows. I usually screw up more than I care to admit
I do think the 3d gallery is neat, but I like simple usually. Its suddenly allowing me to just use a file manager to browse my photos and set as wallpaper... wasn't allowing me earlier.
On a side note, I think i'm gonna keep that flickie program installed. I do like being able to find some other neat wallpapers by category. So thanks for the recommendation
I think the official Facebook sync is supposed to be fixed very soon.

No facebook sync sucks, only like 4 of my friends have pics now only 'cause of twitter. SyncMyPix messed up a bunch of them. :<

What's wrong with the official Facebook sync?... does froyo support that native and I couldn't find it?

I've just been using touch.facebook.com in browser.
One cosmetic question i can't figure out being used to Sense - is there any way for the icon to display the number of unread texts or emails instead of it just showing up in the notification bar?
god i wish there was a way for someone to pull and post the htc mail apk its so much better.

Froyo DOES have fb sync. Not working 100% on cyan right now. There are fixes over in the thread in development. One of which involves editing the build.prop

Try launcherpro. Shows these notification numbers in the taskbar.
for those of you wanting a home clock with weather replacement like sense's, beatiful widgets home looks very much the same, only you can skin it however you would like. there are dozens and dozens of available skins.
Or get chomp sms for your texts. I think it's much better then stock messaging anyway.

I use Google voice for VM and texting. Works great except for MMS, which is a GV limitation at the moment.

There was an issue with facebook sync on the hero build as well. Someone posted a fix there. I was going to try it out later.
handcent now has a small widget that looks like a small app that will show a number with how many texts you have unread
Anyone know of a way to get facebook calendar events into a calendar on CM6; a la HTC Facebook for Sense? I tried some Facebook Birthdays events or something that worked for about 20 minutes then corrupted everyone on reboot.

I would like the orginal Widget modded... with contact pic, you understand me??
Sorry im from spain i speak a little english.
Just so you know, the Facebook app only shares contact pictures with native apps (e.g. dialler).
I've avoided adding this feature to Last Call Widget to avoid bad feedback from users who might think that *my* app doesn't show Facebook pictures.

Brightness and Gallery issue?

Hi 2 all,
I have 2 simple questions. They are not a big problem, but they are annoying.
1. Can I sort my pictures in gallery so the last taken shot will be displayed first in Camera Shots album? I have ~500 pics, and when I want to see last one, I need to scroll down till last one
2. Automatic Brightness unchecks it self randomly... How can I prevent this from happening?
Thnx.

Mine also disables automatic brightness. I think it is after having taken a picture.
The gallery also annoys me... it's the wrong way round!

Gallery photos in wrong order
Did you get a fix to re-order Gallery photos to latest first?
No, there is no possibility to change it.
Maybe someone who has ICS ROM installed knows if it is possible to change it?

Thanks for the reply, I hope ICS gets this right.

[Q] Contact pictures blurry?

Mine are still very blurry. I thought with the update to gmail and android they fixed the 96x96 contact picture size limit. I tried adding a high rez pic to a contact in gmail and waited for my phone to sync it and the contact pic on my phone is still super grainy. I tried adding a new photo to a contact without a pic and it still came down to my phone blurry, but the pic in gmail is crisp. Is there a fix for this other than an app or assigning the pics to contacts on the phone manually?

I've noticed this in all Sense ROMs, but everything seems to work fine on AOSP based ROMs. Which are you on?

I'm on Sense.
update:
Seems to be Sense related. If I manually assign a nice picture to a contact from the phone it stays nice even after syncing with gmail. If I do anything with the picture in gmail it changes it on my phone to a crappy pic. Must be a Sense bug since every other post about it being fixed the user is on AOSP.
