[Q] MIUI Contact picture fullscreen - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

Caller photo size / quality for external screen - how to change the default setting?

Hi everyone!
I have a tiny problem which still disappoints me... I like that Windows Mobile includes photo contacts built-in support. When I take photos from the phone's camera in "photo contact" mode and assign it to a contact using camera tool itself, the size and quality of the photo is fine - seems like 128x128 pixels - and looks well on external screen. But when I try to assign some picture to a contact - either using built-in Pictures tool or Resco Photo Viewer - it comes out in very bad quality, seems much smaller for Resco's tool (64x64 pixels?) and very low quality for built-in Pictures tool. I've been crawling all over the Internet looking for a tweak that will let me modify the default size / quality setting, but failed. Does anybody know if there's a way to make Pictures or Resco Photo Viewer assign high quality 128x128 pictures to contacs? I'd like to see my wife's photo as beautiful as she is and not corrupted by some compression-driven artefacts.
Thanks in advance!
Try "Photo Contacts ver. 3.0"

Contact pictures

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.

Blur Gallery Upload to Facebook lowers resolution of photo?

I'm trying to avoid having the Facebook app installed, since I felt it was silly to only have it installed for the sake of uploading pictures, so I set up Blur with my Facebook account and, just today, uploaded a picture using it instead of the official Facebook app. To my surprise, it uploaded a much lower quality image than the original.
Why is the Blur app downsampling uploads? Is there a way to change this behavior?
Thanks in advance.
anyone have any insight?

[Q] Date stamp in pictures?

Hi,
Is there a way to enable the date stamp when taking pictures?
Bump
i think the option is not there in the stock camera app
No. You do know the date and time of the photo are saved automatically in the EXIF data don't you? I can never understand why people still permanently engrave photos with that data when the file already has it. (Not necessarily referring to you)
That said, obviously there are some people who have a genuine need to have it recorded onto the image itself for whatever reason. As mentioned the stock app does not have this option. However, there may be an app on the market that can automatically use the EXIF data to record it onto the image. Seems like such an app would be easy to create so I see no reason why it wouldn't exist.
I think the lgcamera app in the market has it.

Date stamp in pictures?
Auto Stamper application can enable and add date and time on the photo. This app allows you to add text to photo with various formats like a style, size, colors, and positions as per picture background.
Auto Stamper is the only app that allows you to use smartphone default camera for capturing photo and add text to it.
Download This amazing app from respective play store and app stores.

Where are the high-res contact photos?!

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)
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
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.......
