Why is it when you get or make a phone call your contact pictures even though they are HD look like crap and are totally pixel ed? When using my friends Iphone they are nice and clear and HD. Am I missing something here?
Did you add the photos on your phone or via Gmail? I've found that when added via Gmail the are downloaded to the phone in lower quality than when you add the with the phone.

Are you syncing your contacts with Google? If so, that's what's downgrading your contact picture quality. I don't know why, but that's what was causing my problem. Once I decided to sync my contacts only with the address book on my computer, the quality issue went away.
how do you sync contacts with address book on your computer?
Hi every1. Below are screenshots from my s2 and iPhone 4.
How can I get my emails to show up just like on the iPhone.
I hate that I have to scroll on my bigger screen when all email look fine to me at 100% even on 3.5" screen.
I'm using k9 but I would have no problem switching
Thanks in advance

Am I the only one who's bothered by this??

NO! It drives me NUTS. But I have yet to find a way to fix it. I will be following this thread!
Lol. Yea i wonder y they made.it.like this and theres not one app that has this option.
Hopefully some1 will chime in.
as a former iPhone owner also, my biggest pet peeve with droid is the mail app(s). Nothing on droid comes close to being as usable and complete as the stock mail app on iPhone, especially when it comes to Exchange. I would give anything for somebody to make something as decent as the Apple mail app.
Seems to be a problem with ICS update And the stock Android email app. My stock ROM 2.3.6 email app allows me to zoom all the way out. Obviously you can't read all the content but allows you to see pictures.

Is there any way to forcefully sync contact images?
Some of my contacts have put/updated their contact images but they are not being synced...
Also, they are coming in low quality even though I'm using JB...

Known "issue". Although JB supports high resolution contact pictures it syncs small ones. I personally use HaxSync to sync my contacts with their Facebook accounts to get high quality pictures. Not sure if there's a free/better way.
Use Facebook Contact Sync. Free in the Play Store.
I forgot to mention that I do not use Facebook.
The only contact images I have are the images set by the users.
Any other app or workaround you can think of?

Contact images sync & come if I flash my phone with any ROM and sync again...
Any way to do it without flashing?

Google just started to let JB users to sync 700x700 contact pics compared to the privious 90x90. I saw a post about this a couple days ago, just not sure where. I verify that higher quality pics now sync.

I have some high quality images and some low quality images in contacts...the whole thing is messy now...I want to force syncing the high quality images...
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
I could be wrong. But I'm pretty sure if you have Google sync enabled on your phone the high quality pics and any other contact info changed should sync. If it doesn't sync automatically, go into settings and sync contact.

Is there a way to make the Caller ID photos not blurry other then using HD Full Screen Caller ID app? I use Ubersync for facebook to update my contacts photos and information in my contacts but they all come out blurry.
I use haxsync which is pretty good and takes HD pictures from Facebook. There's also sync me but I haven't tried it.

Does it sync with hd pic? 'cause the last time I checked, the result was not as good as haxsync.

There is only one "small" problem... It's not possible to find haxsync on Play....

The pics are super sharp and it also adds some cool features to call screen if you choose to use them. I just discovered this app a couple days ago when I realized that haxsync wasn't updated to work with kitkat.
I use UberSync for Facebook. I didn't know about sync.me until now and I can't compare them, but UberSync does its work pretty well.

Sync.me doesn't incorporate with contacts app, it's a standalone app, so I think haxsync it's a one-way solution, if ubersync doesn't sync with hd pics. Haxsync works with KitKat.

I used to use sync.me but personally I find haxsync much better. Also it syncs much more like calendars, status updates and the pictures seem better.

Am I the only one here that would have a contact list full of either random people, or dogs, or famous people if they sync'd their facebook friends profile pictures?
lol
I have manually added contact images since i went Nexus simply because i got sick of not seeing the actual person that was calling me....I'm a little OCD about stuff like that...so i manually went in and plucked High res images from Facebook for each contact, uploaded them, and they get sync'd across in nice crisp images now. I rarely add new contacts, but when i do, I just do it manually. it kinda sucks, but its the only way i can get an accurate picture that is the same every time that person calls me.
What about non Facebook people? I don't use Facebook for anything but I would still like HD pictures. Any ideas?

There's a problem with syncing..
HaxSync
I've unpublished HaxSync from Google Play for now until this gets resolved.

Seriously? We have to use a 3rd party for this??? What a pain. Had this with S3 and now S4. I find it hard to believe (call me naive) but why can't Samsung or Google, or Android or whoever simply make this little item work. All my FB synced contacts the photo is blurry.
I sold my note 3 yesterday and bought a nexus 5.
In the stock contact app I don't see pictures on the contacts.
On Samsung n HTC it use to merge FB and wapp pics and show as contact pics.
Is there a way to do it here? I've got the fb account set up and it's working.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
You need an app to do it, e.g. Haxsync:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync
Stock Android doesn't have the option to sync with Facebook contacts
HaxSync is blocked by Facebook at the moment. SyncMe is the better option. Its improved a lot recently.
I paid the money and it didn't work..luckily the refund option was still available.. Thank you.. I'll try that

Sometimes have to allow Haxsync to sync a few times at first, depends on how many contacts you have to sync (I only have 56 contacts on my phone). Personally, it's the best app I've used, been using it on my old phones (GNex, Nexus 4) and now my Nexus 5
