If I call someone frommy contacts with a picture assigned it shows that picture on inbound and outbound calls.
When calling a unknown number/a contact with no picture assigned it shows a rather nice snow capped mountain, or maybe some trees, seems to alternate

Currently, I have the People widget set to display my Favorites contacts. I have set a caller ID picture for each contact. The pictures I use is 320x320 res. When I first add the contacts to the widget, all the pictures were very clear and sharp looking. But after some time, the pictures become pixelated and maintains this look until I manually go into each contact and reassign the picture. The pixelated picture will eventually show up again, and it remains pixelated when the person calls me, looks horrible.
Is this a known issue and there are no fix? Or is there a specific resolution that I should be setting my caller id picture as? TIA
Nvm, figured it out. Turns out when you sync your contacts with gmail, gmail resizes all of you contact pictures down to 96x96. So when the people widget displays it, the 96x96 pictures gets enlarged and thus becomes pixelated.
Solution:
Settings>Accounts & Sync
Turn ON Auto Sync briefly
Click on your google account
Uncheck syncing for contacts
Turn OFF auto sync
Reassign your pictures for whoever that's going to be in the people widget
Hi,
I have the Atrix 4G and whenever I take a picture or a video, and send it as text messaging (mms), it always asks me to resize. Any still picture using the camera always asks me to resize. I would understand the video, but a picture.
Is this because the Atrix takes a picture that is high res that it would just send it through text messaging unless it is resized.
I am using Handcent and also the built in text messaging, and it will always ask me to resize and really a pain in the.......
Any suggesstions, or any settings, or any recommendations to just have take a pic and send....
Thank you
So just let it resize...what's the problem?
Every phone resizes its pictures before sending, most just don't ask. Even the beloved iPhones resize their pics (select a pic to send and at the bottom it'll show a message saying "Resizing" for a second). Why is this a problem?
i always find what i look for in xda, so i didnt even had to ask yet, but not this time. i searched xda as well as the web and didnt find anything similar.
prelude: i have a very good data plan so i always call back my friends, but now it makes me crazy. i had to:
1) hang up (decline) their call
2) unlock the screen
3) pull down notification and go to missed call -OR- go to call logs
4) then hit call for my friend.
i taught it would be a lot more convenient if there would be a 3rd (or 4th) option when u get an incoming call:
u can reject it,
answer it,
answer by sms AND
u can decline & call back. (in one motion)
well i found an app called redhot callback which is a shortcut u can put on your home screen. when u open it, it checks the call log and dials the last incoming call automatically. but it still takes 3 steps to call back: decline the incoming call, unlock screen, open the "app". basically thats what i want to do but from the incoming call screen, and combine it with a decline, so it declines the call and calls it back in one click.
i searched xda as well as the web and didnt find anything similar. my question: does a mod exists for that , (expanding the incoming call screens functionality with a decline&callback), or is it even possible to make a mod like this?
there are apps (for ex Full Screen Caller ID) that can modify the incoming call screen so i taught it cant be that difficult.
(i attached a pic of what am i talking about, its pretty bad but u get the idea
Ya there is an app called full screen caler on play store
.
DONT JUST SAY THANKS CLICK IT
i know, i tried "full screen caller id pro" and "full screen caller x pro" but they only change the theme of the caller screen. they also have some useful stuff like sync photos with fb, but u cant add or edit the caller screen's functionality. when i have an incoming call i can reject/answer/answer with sms. i want to add another option to the caller screen, which rejects the call and call it back immediately.
i found a solution for fast reject & callback. its an app called "Reject & Callback" (who would have taught) its a very basic app, it just checks your call log and makes a call for last incoming by shaking the phone. whats nice is that u can set the shake threshold. so when u have an incoming call u only have to decline it then shake the phone. i guess it was lot easier than modifying the call screen.
Anyway, my original question was is there any mod to modify the original call screen, or is it even possible? im still curious would be pretty cool if u could add more function on the call screen (call screen replacement apps are not perfect, the original call screen still shows up and its not pretty)

a good idea
I hate that every notification except email has the same sound. How can I change so that text messages have their own notification? Right now text messages and all other random notifications share the same ringtone so I never know if I got a text message or something else.

It doesn't work. If you change it, it changes it for all notifications. Not just texts.
I just figured it out.

I had been looking for this setting for days now and I just stumbled upon it. When you are editing a contact go to the bottom of the contacts information and hit the "ADD ANOTHER FIELD" button. There you will see the ability to add the "Message Tone" field as well as specify a "Vibration Pattern" if wanted. Not sure why they didn't put the Message Tone option on the contact by default.

Mind blow.
Dude, just set any ringtone for notifications via phone settings - it'l be your sms ringtone AND for any other applications having opportunity to create notifications you should open those applications, go their settings and find there option notifications and change notifications sound directly for that application. Logic!
Binrob, I get what you are after because I did a google search for the very same thing. No one here seems to get it.
What happens is all these other apps utilize the same NOTIFICATION sound as your text messages (like Facebook, or playing back-and-forth board games). Binrob and the rest of us want our TEXT messages TO BE DIFFERENT sounding than all the others. I don't want to look at my phone every time i get a notification, but i do want to look at my phone every time someone texts me. There doesn't seem to be a way to customize SMS/TEXT to its own notification sound. Android needs to fix this.
You've answered everyone's question! This should show up #1 on Google search!

Has there been updates since to change to separate notification for all contacts?
I get this issue and NEED them to fix as well! I don't want fb messenger and text messaging and any other notification to have the same sound. I want to know what app the notification is for WITHOUT unlocking and looking at my phone. Also, on my s5 I was able to change my led color for specific apps. If it blinking red I knew it was a text. Blinking green fb message. Blinking blue fb notification. Etc! Please add those back!
You CAN set the sound for messages, go to settings, notifications, advanced ......... choose messages, more settings (at the bottom of the screen), and the next screen is where you change the sound that is made. Not exactly user friendly though!
I think the answer is as simple.as: go to your message app, top right hit: more, Then go to settings and set whatever ringtone you want to have under notifications. I guess this should be what you are looking for.

notificaton tone in message+
The comment that you can set message tones In contacts is correct except that apps like message+ , at least on the Galaxy , ignore that and use their own tones
I just found it....
open messages on the right top corner click there and pick customize ando under tones and there u can pick whatever ringtone for only SMS....
FOR SAMSUNG S9/S9+. To have a specific sound for you messages, go to messaging app/setting/notifications/general notications must be off/emergency alerts must be off. Go to new messages and choose your preferred sounds.
After upgrading to EMUI 9, the default contacts images in darken interface are some mountains (bluish and greenish) for the contacts without pictures. It is possible somehow to change to a complete black background, like in EMUI 8?
You can enable Simple view through Display preferences, which hides details like profile pictures, company name etc, about your contacts

Doesnt help. If someone call or when I call somebody (contacts without pictures) the greenish and bluish mountains screen appear, not a full black screen like in EMUI 8.
Yep. I don't like this either. Might have to try a different caller app?
I have tried everything and nothing works. It is driving me mad. Does anyone knows how to remove wallpaper from alarm clock. I got forest wallpaper and spent twenty seconds to find snooze button. I want my black back.
I hope someone will find soluton.
There are some dark themes for the clock.
Incoming call is not supported in the theme.
