Need help on contact image problem

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?

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

  1. Assign a photo to a contact and click done/ save. (ok so far)
  2. Recieve call, contact image is full screen. (Woohoo thats what I want)
  3. Need to update contact info with new details...edit contact...click done/ save
  4. 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!
