Change Standard Profile Picture - Android General

Hi everybody
Probably that's a silly question asked already lots of time, but I wasn't able to find them.
Is it possible to change the standard profile picture? I'm not sure but it looks like this is globally the same.. And because I have everywhere a dark theme (for whatsapp, etc.), i'd like to change this.
Thanks in advance.

maybe you must change your gmail photo profile firs.. :silly:

I mean there are few contacts I won't have a profile picture, because some of those simply aren't persons but companies. So there is a standard profile picture (from android?) with this round head ...
And of course I could always change the profile picture of those seperatly. But when I add a new contact, there's this standard profile picture again.
Is there a way doing this directly?

Change Caller ID / Incoming Call Screen?

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.

different phonenumber application

hi,
I do not know exactly the name of what I am looking for, but what I would like is the following:
When you type a phonenumber you get a list of numbers and contacts.
I would like a different list. Something that looks a bit flashier.
For example I would like to see the pictures that I have linked in my contacts in front of the contacts.
Then when you make the call I have a black background, with a reallly small picture next to the phonenumber. Is there a new screen available with a bigger picture, maybe another colour, or even better, the linked picture used as background for this screen?

[Solved] TF3D Contact Pics are Sharp/VGA

Simply take the contacts photo and change the resolution to 640x480 then move it to your Fuze and change the contact's photo and you're set. No more blurry photos. Check it out: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=920
You don't even need to resize the photos, just use the original resolution and change the contact pic from within TF3D.
If you set it using the contacts app, then they appear blurry in TF3D, but if you set it from within the menu in TF3D, then they won't be blurry.
you're right...it's a huge difference.
Awesome! Thanks
I believe if you use Album or S2V to set a picture to a contact, it also gives a clear contact pic.
How do you get the photos to show up? I had photos showing but now the contact screen just shows "add favorite". Is there some setting to change?
someone should come up with a simpler way to do this.. like automatically from a computer with ur old photos.

I do not really know what you mean
Do you mean to change the contactphoto of a single contact?
Contacts/"Contact2Change"/Menu/Edit contact/ There u can change the pic
Otherwise if you mean to change the standardphoto for every contact i cannot help you...sry!
yes, I mean change the standardphoto for every contact.... hmm
You mean that fancy green robot? It is built in Phone.apk - "picture_unknown.png". Not sure if it's possible to repack this apk with updated resource.

Contact colours in Contacts and Messenger (SMS)

Hi. Any idea if it's possible to change what colour android decides a contact should be when they don't have a picture associated?
It seems completely random but I'd rather have people who I SMS a lot NOT be bright pink but can't find any way to change it in contacts or Google Messenger
Any ideas? Thanks
Well I deleted the contact(s) and re-added them and they got a new random colour...
Not the best solution for changing stuff...ho hum
Have you tried simply adding and removing contact pictures ?
The colors seems to be set per contact but changed to match the dominant color of a picture (if set)

I tried this but it didn't seem to work, the colors remained the same. Instead I uninstalled the app, changed all the relevant contact pics that I wanted changed in messenger to just solid color images of the new color I wanted, re-installed and opened the app, and all the changes I wanted were done. After that I changed the contact pics back to normal and this fix appears to have worked. I'm pretty sure it's most important that you have to open up the app at least once upon re-installing before changing your contacts' pics back, that way the app gets stuck in the colors you want. Anyway sorry if I'm repeating anyone else, just thought I'd offer my two cents. And of course besides this shortcoming it's still a really good app.
Latest version of messenger added color change for each conversation.
Still remains the contact as of in itself.
The varying colors of the contacts is not random on my phone (Galaxy S5).
Each time I add a contact it selects the next color in the sequence...
Blue, Green, Orange, Orange
Blue, Green, Orange, Orange...
It just looks untidy in the Contacts list, and I see no way of changing it - apart from adding a contact a few times until it's the color you want, and deleting the unwanted ones. You could also create some simple color pictures to assign to each profile picture (if you don't have their photo)
