In the stock sms app can you think of a way I can get my picture to show for texts I send. I have everyone else FB pic sync'd but when I click on the "no pic"in the sms thread to attempt to edit the contact and put my pic on there is just says that there is no contact to edit
thanks
ps I do have myself saved in my contacts with the picture, it just wont carry over to the sms
The way I've done it is opening the "people" app and there's a section you can put your own contact info in, when you put a picture there it shows up in SMS for your photo. It doesn't sync with Google though from what I can tell so if you wipe you have to re-add the photo again

Hey guy,
I was just wondering if there was any way for SMS Popup to show the facebook contact pictures that are synced from the stock facebook app in the popup just like it does for the contacts with pictures from your gmail.
Thanks
That would be awesome if it could do this! I love SMS Popup because I don't need a full SMS replacement like Handcent (I think that's what it's called?). I just need a popup like SMS Popup provides but it doesn't show contact pictures that sync from Facebook which is a lot of my contact.
In the SenseUI Roms it does do this, as it links their contact profiles with their facebook.. however I don't know of a way in a stock rom to do this.

Handcent is REALLY good tho. I've used it for quite some time and not to long ago switched back to stock messaging app + sms popup and only lasted about 2 or 3 weeks tops before breaking down and installing handcent again. It's just leagues ahead of stock app and sms popup combined.
Handcent does use these pictures, fwiw.

It's not as nice, but SynxMyPix on the market will actually add Facebook pictures to your contacts, instead of linking them, so they will show up for this.
For some reason my contact picture is just a gray outline of a person in the stock messaging application. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
I have both my Facebook and Facebook for HTC Sense accounts linked and synced. Also in the people application may contact card shows my Facebook picture.
Thanks for any help.

My contact picture next to sms.
STEP ONE:
(Skip this step if you allready have a contact for yourself in you address book!)
Add a contact called (Me, Mine, Your Name)"who ever you want" with your phones 10 digit number, Join it with Google, Facebook and set a contact picture just like a normal contact.
STEP TWO:
Navigate to the following:
Menu:
Settings:
Call Settings:
Additional settings:
My phone number:
Enter your phone number "0000000000"
And your Picture from your contact address book will apear next to your sms.

Ok, so this is driving me absolutely nuts right now...
I have my facebook synced to my contacts and many of my phone numbers I have gotten from my facebook sync. OK so Joe Schmoe shows up IN MY CONTACTS LIST, phone number is there, profile picture is there, everything is great until I go to send Joe a text. I go into my text messages, start typing his name in the top contacts bar and nothing shows up in the drop down menu. Now lets say i get a text or call from Joe, it will not show his name or picture here either, only his phone number.
So I guess I have two options:
Fix this bull**** show everything shows up how it is supposed to
or
Someone wanna give me a way to export all of my facebook contacts into something or merge them with my current list so it works?
A whole other can of worms is the fact that you cannot edit any facebook sync'd contacts in any sort of way and i think this is the root of my problem...
same i want to sync my contacts from facebook keep their info there but then i sign out and poof their gone and i can't keep it that way? -_-;;
I installed the Hangouts 2.0 apk the other day and it's working perfect except I am missing one person's contact picture. He has a picture in my contacts app. Anyone else run into this?

The new Hangouts 2.0 can potentially show two different pictures for a contact. One of those images is the photo you've assigned in your address book while the other is the photo the other person has selected for their Google+ profile. I've seen this on my setup when comparing two conversation threads to the same person: one SMS and the other Hangouts (Gtalk).
Long story short.. Check to see if that person has a G+ profile and if they do, I suspect they haven't chose a photo for themselves.
I had his default contact picture set to his Facebook profile picture. I switched that to his Google+ picture and now it shows up after I force stopped the app. Thanks!
My gmail account is associated with a my picture, but it's not shown in conversation window inside the message app. It's blank, where it's supposed be. any clue how to solve that.? stupid Q but still..
EDIT: SOLVED !!!
Would be nice to post the solution for others...
Go into Contacts app and set a picture for "You".
