Hi
Is there a way to backup and restore high res contact's photos in 2.3.3 rom ?
After rom reinstallation and synching with google i get back low res photos of contacts.
Dont sync contacts and reassign the pictures to your contacts should be working all good

Yeah the manual way is working nice, but the the biggest pain is the fact it is manual
I was thinking about keeping all benefits from having sync on and to be able to restore those high res photos automatically.

I have searching for the same question.
Everytime re-flash the rom and sync the contact, I have to re-crop the hi-res contact image really furstrating....
Is there any place storing the hi-res contact picture in the system folder so that we can backup and just replace them after contact sync?
or is it I can backup the contact image by backup them in Titanium Backup?
Hope someone will help

Hi, after the upgrade to the new facebook app my contacts photos stopped updating along with facebook photos.
I've managed to update the photos by cleaning the facebook cache, going to the facebook app in the friends page and waiting for all the pictures to load up. But this is a very unpleasant thing to do all the time I want a contact picture updated.
Is there any automatic way to update the facebook cache photos so the contacts photos would also update? It would be nice also if I could have an automatic way to make the contacts pick the facebook photos and not the google account ones.
I tried syncmypix, but the photos wouldn't focus on my friends face as facebook does, so many photos were cropped in the wrong place and also would take forever to update. A more intelligent way to update the photos would be appreciated.
I would like to know as well?
You could try deleting the Facebook app, and using an older version?
If that doesn't work, it is a problem with Facebooks stupid sync crap, which doesntvload unless every picture is saved in its local cache.
Another thing, a new Google account without any contacts in it may be a way to go, just before you do, back your phone contacts into a .vcf file.
Hope it helps,

Sorry if this is a common questions, when I use the search there are too many similar, but different, threads.
Is there any way I can backup my contacts so that I can save all the high res photos? because I just reapplied everyone's contact picture and so they are nice and pretty. However, when I wipe my phone and re-sync contacts with google, all of their photos are going to go back to being horribly pixelated. Can I use titanium backup or something?
and as an added bonus, is there any way i can backup everyone's custom ringtone?

Backup contacts to vcf file.
Look for an app on Google Play.
To sync the Facebook photos with high quality, the app is Facebook Contact Sync, and for complete back-up, look for the Titanium Back-Up.
.VCF is the best option I have done the same, but do take care that if the same are already there in Gmail,when you sync with Gmail the contact are shown twice..
Just try it.
Go to android market and just download "MobileGo" apps. Its wounderful application. It will allow you to backup every thing i.e. Message, Contact, Applicaion including backup and many more.
I am using the same apps.
If it woks just HIT thanks button.
Everytime I flash a new ROM I have to start from square 0 with contact pictures. Does anyone knows a method to use the saved contacts (with nice pictures) from previous ROM in the new ROM and keep the contact's nice pictures size previously saved? I tried:
- MyBackup pro
- Titanium Backup
- Save the contacts folder from data/data and paste it to the new ROM
None of the above was working: everytime I had small contact pictures in the Contacts.
Thank you.
My contacts are backed up to google. Therefore when I flash a new rom and log into google all my contacts and pictures are there.
Yes I agree with you. But when you restore contacts from Google into your phone, the contacts pictures are resized to 96x96 even in your phone the picture was full size. This is my problem. How to restore the contacts in the new ROM and keep the contacts pictures at the full size.
Best regards.
Is there an app that will easily restore contact pictures to the full size images? I don't sync contacts through google. They are backed up on my sd card and restored from there. After flashing a new rom the picks are pixelated and with over 300 contacts its very time consuming to restore the pics.
Never mind, TBU does it
