I used syncmypix and the **** still doesn't fix the blurry facebook photos that I have. Wtf do I have to do to fix this problem that's plagued all of android?
It's pretty much been a known issue since Android came into existence. Those crappy blurry pictures aren't because of your Android, but Google. You set up your Google account and it's set to sync your contacts. For whatever reason, Google has decided to rescale your pictures.
No matter what apps you use to sync your pictures e.g. syncmypix etc, when comes to your phone syncing with Google, it's gonna pull down those blurry pictures again.
In short: Go to Settings>Accounts & Sync>Google and uncheck Contacts. Then you can set any picture manually/use your pic syncing app.
Sync your contacts with "Facebook For HTC Sense" not "Facebook"
FB for HTC Sense is also blurry, was fixed with the Desire but it's broken again
Apparently pics are blurry using exchange too, if you add the images to the contacts in outlook.
The solution with that is to add the images to the contact on the phone, it then saves it with the contact in outlook so should you move phones it still uses the unmodified image.
Wondering if that info's of any use.

I have a few contacts in my phone that have had a photo associated with them, well before I got my TP2 with SenseUI.
Now with SenseUI it pulls the current FB photo for those contacts associated with FB accounts.
I love this feature.
What is strange is, my wife for example.
Her photo all throughout the phone (contacts pages, etc) is her current FB photo. That changes once I am in a call with her. Then the call screen shows her old Outlook photo from a while ago.
How do I update this?
hello, see if there is someone that I clarify something, some time ago when you add my facebook account on the phone (HD2) and went to images appeared to me my facebook photo albums, but I did a hard reset to clean and now when I add the account adds photo albums? I think it touches everything that can be configured but not add them, and probe to eliminate it and add it again, anyone know anything?

When you integrate facebook into your phone, it shows your facebook albums in your pictures hub. Not sure what the issue you are having is?
well the solution, you must first synchronize facebook account and then the Windows Live ID, and then I showed all my albums of Facebok in the images folder, so I had to do a hard reset and synchronize facebook account first, and then the hotmail.
Hello,
I have integrated facebook contacts with People using SNS feature.
Now the problems is that the images that are imported to the phone through facebook are too small.
When anyone calls the picture appears to be very stretched. Is there any method to retrieve the whole pic from facebook or images that can be seen decent if anyone calls.
Regards,
SNS ? I had this problem when i linked contacts to FaceBook accounts. What you need to do is link them to FaceBook for htc sense accounts.

Totally agree.
I use Facebook for Sense and not Facebook account type, as this is incorporated into Sense.
I also only use the m.facebook.com website for facebook access as that way you can enforce a https connection. The Facebook application isn't yet secure.
You can simply remove your Facebook application from Settings->Account & Sync by removing the account and then re-add a Facebook for Sense account.
This will then re-sync your contacts and you should get to re-link those that it finds and matches for you.
The images that it pulls from Facebook should be high resolution, there is a problem with Google contacts images, where even if you upload high res you only get low res after a re-sync....but fortunately if you a linked facebook for sense contact that account picture will be used instead.
Hello all,
i don't know if i should write my issue in this section or not..
I am trying to sync my contacts from Facebook also... this way all my contacts will start having their Facebook profile picture. Unfortunately everything works fine except that profile pictures are not synced (facebook contact is synced with phone contact with all the fb information but without the profile picture)
Also another problem.. when fb picture are synced (tried on another phone just like mine) whatsapp won't show those pictures. It only show pictures from google accounts (Therefore some contacts have their google account display pictures while other don't have anything... they have the standard whatsapp green contact photo)
Any idea guys?
Thank You..
I'm looking for an app that would allow me to sync profile pictures from facebook, and just profile pictures, with the pre-existing contacts in my phone. If anyone knows of such a thing, that would be awesome to know. Thanks in advance.
HaxSync
I prefer SyncMyPix to HaxSync quite a bit. ICS is not required and less unnecessary features.

I'm using Facebook Contact Sync. You can choose to sync pics up to 512x512 pixels, so it looks nice
(After setup, go to the sync settings in the phone settings and sync it from there)
