Changing Stock Dialer JB - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all, I'm hoping you can help me with something.. I'm running Cyanogenmod 10 on Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100 International version. When I call someone the call screen will have a huge photo on it and my photos are all small so they look terrible. I had it before with certain roms (not cyanogenmod) that the call screen would have a few options on it (like Gingerbread rom) and a small window for photos which meant the pictures were a decent size and looked great.
My question is, can I change settings in JB that will allow the small window to appear or do i have to install another stock dialer or such.
Sorry if I'm not explaining myself well...
Kindest Regards

Jelly support hd contact photos (256x256) which is pretty cool.
All you have to do is update your contact pictures manually or do it with this app, HD Contact Photos

Thanks for your quick reply. The app will be a big help, but we're would the photos be stored, since I've added the photos I've since forward the phone.

[Q/REQ]Re-Tweaked mms.apk for Shirshir's ICS ROM

I'm running Shirshir's ICS ROM, but he hasn't made any changes for quite some time and I have no idea if he's supporting it any longer, so that's why I'm posting this here. The rom uses AOSP gallery and a themed mms.apk, both of which I like, but in this tweaked mms.apk Shirshir removed the ability to add pictures to a text message using the gallery, so you can only add pictures and videos that you take at the time. That is, you can't add ones already taken unless you go through the gallery app itself, and even then you can only send one at a time, you can't add multiple like you could on stock. So my question is, can anyone re-add this ability? Or point me towards how I might do it myself, as I'm very noobish?
P.S. If you happen to make one, I'd also like a switch of the attachment and send buttons in messaging while you're at it XD
Thanks for any help in advance.

Hey!
I know about this problem... I was actually going back to the old gallery to fix this and the lockscreen wallpaper problem. That's the only easy way short of decompiling and fixing the code inside the individual apps... which is useless since I plan to change my ROM to a completely new base eventually.. That's what I've been working on lol.
So, you can't really fix it and keep the stock gallery app. If you want, I can upload the original gallery for you to install, and that should fix everything.

Bigger caller sceen photo

It's been long time since Android has limitation of image size in the Galaxy S II. Is there any modified phone.apk and contacts.apk (if needed) with bigger screen of caller?
It is really weird on ICS image size is still so small.
I've seen mods for GB but not for ICS
I am not interested of commercial callers' screen as they don't have stock look and are just crap
Yes you need to search as always .
Big Caller Image .

Is that what you mean?
Nope, as I said I am not interested any commercial app
I am looking for mod of stock "Phone.apk" for ICS - am I blind or there is really no any for 4.03?
Repeat my post .

That what I was looking for. I must adjust my photos for better resolution, I wish there were more info about it too
have you tried hax sync? It syncs your contact photos from facebook and they are high res. Also the custom rom thebiyani ( SG2) has a caller which is full screen. It is not perfect yet but its pretty good

[Q] Multi DPI stock dialer (gt-i9100)

I will like first than any other thing to apologize if you are reading this and you thought finaly a multi DPI stock dialer aviable, sorry i dont have it. I needed a title to guet some readers to see it. Second for my really bad speling.
This post has been created whit one goal:
¡¡¡¡¡MULTI DPI STOCK SAMSUNG DIALER!!!!!
I have scouted xda forums for weeks to guet one, but this mod just... DOES NOT EXIST.
I have seen this request on replies, new threats, but no one single developer has responded to this call.
If YOU reader support this threat, i will sent a pm to your inbox once i guet one.
Now I will place here what WE are asking for:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
Yes we know there is an stock ics dialer and contacts, some android market apps whit multi dpi aviable free or paid, but we dont want that.
Well that is the reason of this post, but I have seen what people belive, is the PERFECT dialer:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
2. AutoRotate disiable
3. Full screem picture
4. ICS compatible
5. Record call aviable
And going a little bit more... demanding. If a developer decides to guet on this heroe path, on the SAMSUNG STOCK contacts app, the ability to unite more than five accounts to one contact.
Hopefully a great xda dev will become the heroe and provide the apk that many are looking.

[Q] Annoying LETTERBOX in Gallery after updating the Official JB 4.1.1

I'm using an International S3 in the US. I updated it to the Official JB via Kies this morning.
Everything is ok except the Gallery.
The Gallery doesn't go to full screen like in ICS, it now has the notification bar on top.
Even when I'm viewing individual photo in full screen, a black dead space is still on the top (like a place holder for the notification bar).
It means that I can not use the whole screen to view the photo. I tried zooming in but the black space is always there.
Do you guys experience the same problem?
I'm thinking of finding a new gallery apps, because it's pretty annoying (missing the whole purpose of owning a big screen)
P/s: the screenshot of that black space are in the attached file.

yea I have it too.. would be nice if someone could fix it. Tried to use quickpic but its just not quite that good.
I think it's not a bug. Samsung has changed that in JB. I don't know why.
