No Contact Pics in Messaging App??

So only issue I have with this phone so far is that none of my Contacts Pics show in the messaging app. My contact pics are all there in Contacts though. I tried hard resetting and setting up the phone again and it didn't fix it....so I'm stumped. Anyone out there having same issue or know how to fix it?

In the stock message apparently specifically though, bullseye69?.. Not just your phone contacts list? I seem to be having issues with contact pics not showing up in various Google apps (gTalk for example) while everything seems to be syncing fine.

the only contacts in messaging app that appear are the ones that have their google accounts synced with a picture
My contact pics are good in stock messaging. Even my wife's contact pic who does not have a google account, that I set manually with my G1 years ago. I did notice my own contact pic changed to an older one when I switched phones...
Is there a better messaging app? I do miss the vibrants default

I have this problem, however its only with Facebook synching. Google pics, or photos I've manually saved to contacts work.
There's a free app called synchmypix that will solve your Facebook woes.

You can't go wrong with Handcent !
My facebook photos were showing up in my contacts, but not in my messaging. I got SyncMyPix as well and it worked like a charm.
EDIT: Oops just saw Frank29 post. He already mentioned SyncMyPix.

Google Shopper keeps disappearing after reboot after Gingerbread update.

Have you guys noticed that the google shopper app keeps disappearing every time you reboot you phone and have reinstall it so you can use it again? Pretty strange!

I have emailed Google about the issue. It seems it happens only for this app. Strange. If you guys use it, please do the same. I love this app it really usefull.

Same issue here - What is the google address?
Having the same problem you've reported here. I'd like to contact google, but I'm a "noob" and couldn't find a contact address on the Google Mobile website, or on the "Google Shopper" page... Am I missing something?
You can do it from the e-mail link on their app page in the Market.

[Q]Facebook app, friends list = app crash

Hello
Since i got my Xoom, the facebook app have been a little dodgy.
Whenever i try to browse my friends list the app force closes. It has always been like this. Even the new version that came out today does this.
Anyone know a solution to this?
On my Nexus One this works fine.
And also, after adding an facbook account on the Xoom in Accounts, the facebook acount isn't visible like it's on a phone. How come?
I have the same problem I think I updated facebook 3 times since with no difference. really annoying if you wanna check yourself and friends in somewhere and then the dam thing crashes.
Hoping this will get fixed at some point

Have you tried FriendCaster? It doesnt crash at all on our Xooms. I wound up buying the pro version because I just thought it would take Facebook forever to fix it.
FB app sucks on hc. I just use dolphin browser for my fb'ing. Saves the headache.

It asks for your phone number, so it might be SMS too, not looked that far yet

I'll look into it!
EDIT: Sadly, g+ only. I was hoping it was SMS too ):
Another Mirror https://www.file1.info/nstyXcW there is no other way for some tablet user (Nexus 7/10 or GTab2) to get the app, but it works on this Tablets.

As of right now it basically replaces Google talk and google+ messaging. Rumer has it that it is eventually supposed to also replace google voice and other messenging things like SMS.

Yeah, it is very beautiful. As of now, it is basically like a really cool ui update of Google Talk.

And updated Google+ is now live too
No contact status? No contact list that reorders based on contact status?
I rolled it back to Talk for now. I can't really stand having a huge list of everyone to whom I've ever written a Gmail. Am I missing something here?
Thanks
Thanks for telling us!
I have no ideia of this "update"
I can't see the big differences from the old app.
Can you send photos and videos or files with it like whatsapp? I haven't found a way to do it.
Furthermore I can't add a photo to my chat profile without having to add it to Google +.
And my contacts that I have pictures of in my contact book are shown without pictures in the chat since they haven't got a picture on Google+.
So far I am a little bit disappointed with these issues and whatsapp will unfortunately still be a more preferable way for me to send messages for a while longer.

"NOTE: If you aren't yet able to install Hangouts on your phone or tablet, or the Play Store "Open" button takes you to the old Talk app, hang tight, we are rolling out Hangouts to everyone over the course of several days. Rest assured Hangouts will be available soon for all Android 2.3+ devices, tablets included!" - From Google
I got it working when it released yesterday. I was having the same problem with it opening to Gtalk.
All I did was used TiBu to wipe data and uninstall Gtalk. I then went to the play store and installed it.

YouTube sharing

So basically, whenever I try to share a video on YouTube, it automatically opens up Gmail. Is there anyway to change that so that I can just get the url or share through another app? I tried clearing defaults for both YouTube and Gmail but it didn't change anything.
