I'm wondering why the contacts pictures are blurry.
Sent from my quanderbolt using Tapatalk.
My contacts that have pictures from facebook look like they take the facebook profile picture and reduce it down to a size to fit on my contact list and then try to expand that small picture when that picture is shown during a call. Doesnt seem to be the best method for showing contact pictures.

The contact picture appears as magnified and very bad looking.
I set my contact pictures from pics taken with hero camera.
When I set a picture that I imported (taken with 10 mp camera) it is a little better - but not good.
I don't understand what is wrong & how am I supposed to set a picture to look nice.
The icon looks nice - only the calling picture is affected.
Hi all, I had a Diamond1 and there was an optimal size of picture of my contacts 256x256px ..., now I have TD2 and it wrote me this size is small or not optimal,... so what is the optimal resolution of picture that I want to add to my contact? ... 512x 512px ?
Set the Camera to Contacts Picture mode.
Take the photo.
272x272
Thanks!
Hi!
I know that MIUI uses a separate contact picture as a small icon (automatically downloaded), and a caller picture as a fullscreen picture when you get a call (manually set from gallery), as stated here. For me app Friendcaster automatically downloads my friends' facebook profile pictures in full size, and sets them as contact pictures. Can I use these automatically downloaded pictures as fullscreen caller pictures?
From what I understand with MIUI, you have to select the contact pictures manually in order to get a full screen image. Otherwise, all you get is the small image that you have in the contacts list.

have you find a way?
No, I didn't. I'm not using MIUI anymore, and that fixes many things though.

I'm having the same issue.
It's a pretty basic scenario: You sync your Facebook contacts with any of the so-many-available apps (that also allows to save very high-resolution photos), and now you want the photos to display fullscreen when the contact calls you... but, you can't. It will only display "caller" photos that are manually chosen from the local gallery. Why? because... just like that.
Anyone found a solution?
Thanks

help?
i actually have installed a rom with a phone.apk showing big contact images. means that they are streched to the width of the screen... all look bad, but some extremly...
i found out:
contacts, i added the pictures when i had a galaxy mini, have pics with 69*69 pixels
contacs, pic added with s2, have pics with 138*138 pixels
with myphoneexplorer i can add pics with 200*200 pixels (best but could be better...)
is there a way to get better pics than 200*200 to the contacts?
Something strange here with the S3...
A while ago Google (finally!) fixed that long withstanding 96x96 pixel limit for Gmail contacts (not G+), as well as introducing 720x720 contact image size in JellyBean.
Editing photos in Gmail contacts now has a new interface and larger file size is allowed. However, on the S3 they still look crappy low-res.
Phone running latest 4.1.2 official, not rooted.
Any ideas what needs to be done? Thx.
Post a screen capture for better understanding.
For me it's locking ok. But i'm rooted (Custom rom 4.2.2)

I'm on 4.1.2 and contact photo is high res. I did take the photo and set it using the phone, not through gmail contacts.
You have to enter the details of each contact with photos to let it render the high res picture. You'll see contact picture will be sharper after a second or two.
ok seems re-editing the contacts images' (re-add picture) in google mail and resync-ing on the S3 did the trick.
All high-res now....too bad there's a stupid translucent bar at the top when receiving a call, most heads get cut off.......
