Hello,
I have a LG Optimus One, when I receive a call or message the contact name can't show it only show the number, off course contact available at the contact list. (The contact list I sync from Gmail contact)
I don't know the problem is my phone or firmware? How can I fix it?
Pls help me.
I had similar problem - it shows wrong contact name and picture becouse it takes contacts from SIM card. Try backup contacts, remove all from SIM and copy contact directly into phone (using for ex. MyPhoneExplorer). Then restart phone.
It strange, but I didn't find another way. Also try enable/disable contact viewing optipons in menu. There is many options and after some time it started works fine on my OO, but I'm not sure what I done directly. Anyway these steps helped me.
Hi all,
when i send a sms my photo do not appear, i have a grey square...
My profile is set correctly whith my photo.
Bugs ???
Check if you don't have your number also on SIM card.
Checked, my number is not on sim card or on phone contact, only on my profile.
contact/menu/+/myprofile
any idéa ?
Great, so on list of SMS click on your "gray square"
Standart SMS/MMS application:
It request you about adding contact <your_phone_numer> say yes, fill some stuff what you want and click again on "gray square" on top, chose picture what you want.
Handcent SMS
It forwards you to Account configuration, where is first menu "Account picture" so just select picture, that you want to use.
In native app sms/mms, that not work if i press on gray square nothing takes place
just an orange border is displayed around gray square.
I have installed handcent and all work fine...
I think that it is a bug of native app...firmware is v10b
Strange.... If I tap on contact which I know, it shows me ikons for call, contactlist, sms and sometime for email if I have configured it. If I click on "unknow" person, it ask me, if I want to add add "xxxxx" to contactlist. I have Neojn's void. based on V10a
Yes that work for me too with unknow contact, i have no problem for add a picture to a contact but for ME not work...MY photo do not appear at right of Me:blablabla...
In same way like for other it worked for me. Try remove your profile information from phone and make sure that you haven't stored number elsewhere and try again.
I tried several times this does not work...
factory reset -> not work...
on French forums several people have the same problem...
Little hazardous solution, but you can try install mms apk from me, for try if it helps.
But backup original apk, or better do nand backup.
Thanks, i test now after a nand backup
Not work, i try to install and i have error msg: app not installed
and if copy your file to system/app icon of sms not appear...
tomorrow i try void rom...
Same problem with void rom, it is really strange....
i have the same problem.....

LOOOL, you will not believe!!! I was thinking about and I figured out, that here can be only one differences between each other and it is language. I chosen English instead of czech and guess what!! It didn't works. So, dou know some other language or can I write "how to" in czech?
I have the same problem. Italian user.
I think, that creating new contact with picture and yours phone number (without country code) should be enough.
so i figured it out ! you go to phone dialer > contacts > menu button > more and my profile and there u go
i allready try this method but not work on my phone...i don't know what to do
for me its work only with handcent...
I think it si a problem of sim card, Mine is more than 15 years old...
On parameter/ about phone/ status/ my number phone is unknow...
2 days before i have upgraded my sony W8 from 2.1 to 2.3.7
after successful installation i had restored the back up taken for contacts and SMS.
The restore process was done successfully, i am able to view the sms, however not able to view the contacts
While in the call log, i can see the names does it means that the contacts also restored successfully?
If yes then why i am not seeing the contacts ?
can anyone help me for this ?
Is that a Windows-based device? You're posting in an Android forum. Furthermore, please use a descriptive title and not just "Q" -- obviously, you have a question, otherwise you wouldn't be posting in here. It helps people sift through the posts and determine which they could help with and those in which they do not, all without having to open all the threads and read the entire OP.
Unable to view contacts
sorry for that, and sorry for the delay as wel.
I am using a Sony Ericsson W8 device, this is not a windows based.
few more things like to share.
i have one app called Folder Orgaaniser, using this app i am able to see all the contacts.
every time i save a contact it does not show me the saved contact, but i can see that in folder organiser.
moreover if that person calls me, i get his name displayed on the screen, but my contact list is showing empty.
is this helpful or need some more info ?
ok so the dialer has smart search, which is even more useful for me because some of my contact names have spaces in them. like salman is spelled 's alman' because in older SE n nokia phones this made his name appear first when i pressed s. the sony dialer picks this up (as does exdialer - much faster app!!) , but the sms app does not. so when i type 'mom' the messaging app does not recognize it because it is spelled 'm om'. any fixes for this? u know any app which has smart search type features so it can recognize names with spaces?
Hi,
I haven't seen this posted anywhere. It is happening since the updated with LinkedIn option for contacts. When I set the contact pictures with pictures stored locally they will show up full screen. But after 1-2h they lose quality and when I receive a call the picture is small in a circle. It is very annoying as I want the full screen picture to be shown when I receive a call/ make a call.
Anyone else with this problem?
Fixed it on my xperia z3. So far, since 2 days, the problem is gone. What I did is unlink all contacts from whatsapp (you have to edit each contact and unlink from whatsapp). Set again the picture from local storage and done. Hope it works for you.
reinstall app, use a cleaner and install again.. if that dont work you can try use sony companion and use " repair my phone " that will reset all your phone and check files(do a fresh install)
ps: you go lose your data/files

what app? It is the native dialer and contacts app. Did this happened to you? I assume that yes and what you are suggesting me to do worked for you. If not, please stop posting useless instructions. My phone is stock since day one.
