Is there a way to change the generic picture in your Samsung contact profile against one of yourself?
Thanks,
MG
Open the profile
Click Edit
Click the "-" in the upper right of the stock pic
The camera will open and you can take a selfie, or you can click the pic icon and select one from your gallery
If its stuck like mine was, you have to go into settings. Then at the very top right there should be an icon that looks like your current profile picture, or a silhouette style icon. Click that, then click the icon in the middle that is 'obviously' a spot for a profile picture, and select to either take a photo or choose a picture. You won't be able to use the 'neat' images they have in the contacts app when you try to change it via that route. But hey, at least it changes it all. I can't change my picture from the contacts app for some reason... it just never saves. you click 'save' and nothing happens, and even if you press back and hit 'save' it still doesn't do anything. Sometimes it even degrades the quality of the picture to make it all blocky, but still doesn't actually save anything...
I have a question- I have a mashup of contact pictures and letters on my s9 plus. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to change all of my contacts pictures according to the theme that I've downloaded. Can that be done? Default contact pics that are theme specific?

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.
Is there any descent picture viewer similar to the iphone that can do all of the following
Lists photo albumns
When you select an album you get a thumbnail grid of photos
When you select a thumbnail you get a full screen picture
When you slide a picture to the left the next picture appears
When you slide a picture to the right the previous picture appears

look for S2V,its just like the iphone. one little tip 4 ya, next time try using the search button. this program has been around for a while and been talked about a bunch of times.usually when questions like this get asked noone answers cause it is so simple and all you gotta do is search.
edit: the stock album from htc is pretty good imo, its just like S2V.

HTC Album 3.2 does all that and it's fast as heck.
It's too big to attach but here's a link:

Resco Photo Manager is the beast of photo editing/viewing/management - does everything & is super fast - free trial but it does cost after that ...
when combined with the resco file explorer you get thumbnails everywhere so you don't even need to fire up the photo app

Hi,
I think most of them in, Xnview Pocket, you may even crop/resize/apply some effects / batch renaming and even acces iptc/exif info !
Best it's free and working under wm6.5
regards
yeah i really like XnView
First off am running StarDroid 3.2.1 I don't think it's rom related but user related
I have added pictures of 2 people. They do show up in the phone when I edit the contact. They also show up online when I hover over the contacts name. However they won't show up in the people app or the phone dialer when I scroll to them.I get those grey silhouettes. I do however have one picture visible in there as that contact is linked to a google+ account and that person has picture in there profile.
I do have to say searched the forum for this and came up with this path /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files it does have the thumbnails for the pictures of the google+ people but not of the non google+ people. The pics that are in my gallery are the ones not showing up.
Am I do something wrong? I thought by editing the contact and adding a picture it would show up in the people app and in the dialer. I haven't tested any other functionality of have a picture added to a contact
Also want to add that the pics that I used from the gallery do show up in the people widget when added to a home screem.
Well after google searching and looking on other forums I finally found my answer
"Go to the Linked icon (upper right corner), then press the menu button. It will give you the option to select contact photo. Click it and it will show the photo options."
I then selected the photo cropped it to what I wanted and I was good to go.
Okay this is REALLY starting to bug the heck outa me, anyone know how to change that normal plain profile pick in stock messenger to something else? (Picture: The things that are circled in red)

Mine is my Google+ picture.
Contacts app --> Select the contact under "Me" (first one with your name on it) --> Press the edit pencil at the top right corner --> Tap the icon next to (left of) where you edit your name --> Choose photo
When I open the Contacts app on my Galaxy S8+, next to my name is a generic picture of an elk (I think). When I select the contact, I see the same picture at the top of the screen, as well as all of the contact information. When I select EDIT, instead of the picture of the elk, the picture displayed is the picture associated with my Google Gmail account.
Is there any way to change that picture of the elk to a more personal picture?
Thank you.
U edit profile for that contact?
