Hello there,
After installing the new rom from sony at first I was enable to place a contact picture as landscape mode when resizing on selecting the image.
After a while, didn't understrood if it was because i installed any program, it become to resize as a square and then when you go to contacts window it stays zoomed and not nice.
Any way of changing this?
maybe the old pictures back after the auto sync?
Same thing here... when i try to add pictures for contacts, some pictures asks for a landscape crop, while other asks for a square crop, without any recognizable pattern of behavior.
Sorry, but i still don't know what to do.
(Did you installed Gallery 3D?)

The SE stock ROM automatically tries to merge all of your phone-only contacts, SE Sync contacts, Google contacts and Facebook contacts together. Unfortunately, if you have the same contact on more than one service, then the same number shows up several times. Also, the phone-only contacts use the "landscape"-type pictures, but Google and Facebook use square pictures, and I think these photos override the phone-only ones.
What I did was to edit EVERY contact, press Menu and select "Split". This separates them (took forever). Then, I went to the phone book, pressed the "Groups" button in the upper-left corner, and set it not to display any Google or Facebook contacts. Now all contacts use the "landscape" style pictures.
The SE phone book merging stuff is TERRIBLE. Why would I want to see the exact same number or e-mail address two or three times? Why wouldn't I have the same number in all services (especially if I can sync my phone contacts to Google)? How is that useful? If it prevented numbers from showing up multiple times, then I might use it.
Found the problem,
When you install 3D Gallery 2.0 and uninstall the original one or you have an custom rom just with 3D Gallery 2.0 it stays on the square, if you install the original one it all comes to be normal with the wide picture format even if it is a Google contact.
The Google contact will stay with a crop and less def image but the phone shows the high definition wide that you choose

Hello,
When I apply photos for my contacts on HTC HD2 I use contacts editor. Often photos are big and for contacts I need only people's face. So I use pinch-to-zoom and place contacts frame around face. Then I noticed when I look contacts list the photos look blurred for some time. I think this happens because HTC HD2 loads whole big photos in memory. Then after some time photos of contacts gets looking clear.
In contacts editor there is a small "crop" button in the upper-left corner.
As how many times I tried to press it - no success.
What is this button for ? Why it doesn't work ?
I suppose that button should crop photos, but It doesn't work!
its not a button, its the title of the crop screen.
based on that image you posted,,, drag the part of the image you want into the square, the womans head, say, use two finger zoom to make it a little bigger, then centralize it,, and when you're happy with what is in the highlighted square press done.

Hi All!
I installed a new ROM with ICS 4, this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612140 but, I having some problems with QuickPic. Multitouch for zoom photo don't work, when i try to enlarge a photo, quickpic zoomed it to max.
I wanted to point it in the right topic but i can't (10 post needed), so I reported here.
Anyone have a solution or alternative software!?
PS: With ES file Manager Gallery multitouch working fine!
I have a problem with Quickpic too - when I try to assign a picture to a contact - when you pick a picture, choose 'set as' and then try and assign a picture to a contact it just doesn't work. The picture to be assigned opens up with the margins to be set (edit mode), fades away for an instant and then comes back. When you set the margins and click the floppy disc icon (in the top right hand corner) to 'save' the picture the screen goes black and you have to exit the program. I'm fairly sure that this feature used to work fine up until recently. I've even gone as far as to do a factory reset on my phone, reflash my phone's ROM and reinstall the QuickPic app. No change though, I still can't set a contact picture.
Can anyone help? My phone is a Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray.

When accessing the WLAN for the first time a keyboard does not appear to enter WLAN password. A notification has appeared which is prompting to select keyboard type. The default setting seems to be Remote Keybaord (MyPhoneExplorer). This doesn't seem like a good default.
I can't access new ringtones. It says unable to connect even though I then go on to add and sync a google account. (so there's nothing wrong with the internet)
Under "Clock" the word "StopWatch" doesn't fit inside the screen. It says Stopwa and then runs out of space.
"News and Weather" crashes upon launch.
Gallery crashes when selecting what I assume is a contrast adjuster in the lower left. (Looks like three circles intertwined)
Gallery seems to have issues with images that contain transparency. A garbled version of another image is shown in the transparent parts. (When viewing a single image and swiping left / right to view next)
I'm not crazy about the "Bee-do bee-do" loader screen. Maybe others like it but I'd prefer something more sedate.
I tried selecting pictures from Albums to contacts but for some reason when cropping the image, some images are automatically rotated sideways so the face is also rotated. One solution I did was to edit the photo and rotate it 360 again for the image to appear correctly. Is this a bug or is there an easier way to rotate the images when cropping?

This is the same with all Sony devices. What I did was transfer all my contacts to Google Gmail and do all my editing there via a computer.. You just have to make sure that google sync is enabled in your phone to get the updated contacts. Hope it makes sence.
Yes and remember that all the contacts pics get small when you sync. It's not bad quality they just appear in a small square. This is does not happen when you set them via phone, but they get this way as soon as you sync with googl contacts anyway...
I don't know if I should laugh or curse at Sony for this issue. The pics I wanted to use are all on my phone so it's easier to do it on the phone. I don't plan to put pictures on all my contacts so I will settle rotating the pics on the phone. The only hassle is you don't know which picture is rotated wrongly.
Well, that is not the only thing wrong with this phone...
