Need help on contact image problem

m-Archangel-m — Thu, 24 Jan 2013 01:56:16 GMT

Hello there

I have a resizing problem on my xperia t.

Everytime I try to add a picture to a contact and save it looks ok but if I edit the contact and save again the image is automatically resized to a very small thumbnail.

I wwant the contact image to remain high quality and also to show full screen when I recieve a call...instead of displaying the small thumbnail as stated.

Now before you ask :smileyhappy:, I have turned off all synvc features as far as I know and have tried re-adding the pics several times?

Am I missing something or a setting somewhere?

Nothing you can do to get better quality.

The most perfect image is ruined when you place it as a contact.

Although it does show the image fullscreen when you recieve a call.

Silly little things Sony could fix.

I agree with miffy saddly this is something Sony has to work on

there are third party phonebook alternatives on the playstore

This does not happen for me...when I recieve a call it appears as a thumbnail no matter how many times I change the picture...this is a screenshot of an incoming call...

Can you suggest any particular app that will do the job well?

That is strange, mine comes up full screen for an incoming call.

Ok this is whats happening and im not sure why...

Assign a photo to a contact and click done/ save. (ok so far)
Recieve call, contact image is full screen. (Woohoo thats what I want)
Need to update contact info with new details...edit contact...click done/ save
Recieve call but now the image has reverted back into a thumbnail???

It would seem I have to reassign the image everytime I edit or update a contacts details. Helppppppp!
