hi all,just wondering if there was a way to make the caller picture fullscreen instead of a circle even for unkown numbers,been looking arround to see if it was possible to edit the dialer apk and replace the circle with a simple black solid background but without success.
well,two days and not a sign of an answer or a suggestion!!..looks to me it's not a possible thing to do,so i'll stick to that small ugly circle that appears everytime I call or they call me.
I've noticed that favorite contacts have full screen pictures, others are with small circle.
yes indeed,favorite contacts have that option,the thing is how to make it fullscreen by default for all callers even those that are not on our contacts list.the incallui would have a cleaner and sleeker look I guess.

Anyone know whether we can change the font for the preview of incoming SMS?
Look for software called ZoomSMS. It was invented for Eten devices but works well on HTC phones as well.
ZoomSms don't preview automatically...
Of course it does.
i have got a copy and tried...but there is no option to preview.
it will show an icon on the screen and you will have to tap on it
to open the preview of the SMS.
and do u happen to know..how to get rid of the icon and its system
tray shortcut?
thanks..
Look in the phone settings (when you tap on antenna icon, go settings). Check all the tabs there.
thank i manage to hide the tray but still no option to preview Sms
upon receiving. Still need to tap on the mail icon to read the Sms.
I've put ICS on my developer phone to play about with (not the Nexus) and I was wondering how it looks to people when they get an SMS message.
After coming across this screenshot, I thought that when you got a text, the contact picture of your friend would be displayed at the left, as is the case for Andy Rubin at the bottom.
However, I find mine are displayed like Hiroshi Lockheimer, with just the icon on a patterned background.
I really like the little contact picture, so is it displayed this way on the Nexus S or is there a way to turn it on? Why would Google show 2 different things in their screenshots?
Cheers.
Mine looks like the one with Hiroshi too. This person has a picture in my contacts as well. I didn't test it with her GoogleChat.
Same here, I get the sms icon, no contact pictures. Same for google talk. And I was wondering if this feature didn't make it in the release.
Thanks for checking that out for me! It's odd because I have a picture set too but mine displays the same...I'd have thought it would display the contact photo.
As far as I can see from that screenshot, Hiroshi and Andy are both texts? Maybe it's a third party app...does Handcent do that maybe?
Talk displayed the default picture. Could be my slow connection? Then when I clicked the notification it showed her picture.
Has anyone got the picture displayed for SMS notifications? It seems like a cool feature.
Same thing happens with my Nexus S too....tried multiple AOSP builds of ICS and the official release and still no contact pictures in the sms notifications It does show for gtalk notifications though. I have tried searching for a fix but haven't found anything yet.
Hi All
I successfully rooted my Samsung Galaxy S Duos using this forum. Thanks for the same. Keep up the good work.
I want to change the transparency of the background of Contact Name and Number shown in call screen to 100%. Or say I want to remove that background altogether. The same kind of background is observed in starred contacts arranged in grid mode. Most of my contacts are with photographs, this background hides almost half the face of contact picture while calling as well as scrolling through contacts.
1. How to remove that background from call screen and contacts grid? I don't want another call screen application.
2. Is it possible to set ascending ringtone for incoming calls? If yes, please tell me that too.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
When I receive an incoming call on my phone, the top third of the screen shows the callers picture. However, the bottom part of the image is cut in half and not scaled to fit the area. The area below this point is all black with just a picture of a phone in a circle at the bottom half of the screen. I then slide the phone to the right to reveal the options to answer the call.
I've not had a nexus before but have ran third party AOSP ROM's and I'm sure the top half used to display the caller picture in full or at least the silhouette person for contacts without pictures rather than cropping them off. I'm also sure that a circle animation used come outwards from the centre of the phone icon when the phone rang to indicate how to answer.
Can someone confirm what I should see when I receive a call as I'm sure mine is not right. Do you see the circle animation on receipt of calls? Here is the screen shot.
Thanks
Steve
Resolved. Factory reset sorted the issue.
Just got Oreo, and it appears there's no way to see notification text or interact with notifications using the S View Cover anymore. I can't dial or take pictures anymore either - anyone know of a fix? This is especially annoying considering that I just got a new cover as my old one was worn out. Dial/photos wasn't that critical, but seeing notification texts so that I could read incoming emails without opening the cover was.
I have the problem as flinx1, including that the clock is displayed on two lines instead of one!! Terribly annoying and amateur behavior from samsung developer.
Does anyone know have to fix this?
Disappointed with same issues--no phone or camera from S View window, and can't preview notifications.
Change clock display for S View window in Settings, Advanced features, Accessories, Clock and FaceWidgets.
