How to set contact photo for myself? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i'm on slim ics so it's basically cm9 but i guess aokp guys also can answer this.. How do i set contact photo for myself as i'm using inverted mms.apk and its difficult to differentiate myself from the other person at a glance so setting a contact photo for myself would make things really easy.. Help is appreciated

You need to create a profile for yourself in people, there should be an option at the top of the list if you haven't done it already.

what happens if the person you receive an sms from is also using the same program? (or if u decide to send a test message to yourself?)
Would it be an endless cycle of sms' going back and forth?

It would need to remember numbers so that it only replies to each number once in a given time period (it may do this already.)
Haha! Totally forgot to put that in there. I'll get right on it and post it later today!

Hi davey1980,
I can certainly put that on my list of future implementations and try and work it into the next version. I may be able to spend a bit of time on it this week so I may be able to get a release out before next weekend with that feature in.
With regards to downloading, if you left click the attachment you'll get the cab file to download. I just tried right clicking and "saving file as" and that gave me the php file.
If you're still struggling, email me at [email protected] and I'll mail the cab file over to you.
Thanks
no luck
well i tried left clicking and right clicking, save as. but keeps giving me php. i'll email you. cos i love this little programme!

Just going to check my email now. Managed to work in the Missed Call SMS for you this afternoon!
a whitelist would be much help.
and maybe the mods could move this to the Dev section

I shall certainly be working in a whitelist into the next version. I was thinking of custom messages per whitelisted number too.
If you can think of anything else, let me know!
Mods, I agree, if this could be moved to the Dev section it would be appreciated, will probably get a few more people swinging by with suggestions then.
Thanks
Nice work
I haven't tried installing yet because I don't really have a need for it... but I can certainly see how it might come in handy one day.
Perhaps you could get some screenshots up and maybe a changelog?
Cheers!
p.s. You might need to send a PM to a mod to get their attention, they seem to be a bit thin on the ground on this site!

Just uploaded version 1.3.5.0 with the option of using the blacklist or the whitelist for SMS replies.
Ok, thanks so much. I will try it and get back to u.
thanks for the whitelist option.
suggestions:
- add blacklist/whitelist number manually
- when adding from the list, show number of the contact also

[Q] Simple app / idea request .. is it possible ??

Hello ,
to let you know
i am using twitter from outside my home to tweet in action ,
sometimes i take some pictures and i upload it directly from the phone
now ,
i want something to automatically write my name on it
some processor or app or something takes the photo and post the name on it
like a fixed watermark or something
i am using " camera 360 " to capture the photos
is it possible any way to take some seconds to automatically write my name on it before uploading ??
example ,
see this photo :
http://twitpic.com/833gwo
you see the watermark on above corner ?
i want it to posted on the photo automatically
after the Camera 360 app and before the uploading
i hope i was clear
waiting for you my friends
i can offer anything for any one to make this possible ptw
Galaxy S II General
Discussion about Samsung Galaxy S II (general chat, tips & tricks, etc)
Anyway, in the time you took to make this thread, you could have easily searched the Android Market
http://market.android.com/search?q=watermark&c=apps
returns several apps which claim to do what you want.
I guess we need something different
we need something automatically add the name on exact place of the photo
right after Camera 360 app that i used to capture the photo
it means less time ,
because when i am tweeting from action i don't have much time
you know what i mean " based on what happens in my country now "
i hope it's clear now , and i hope it's possible
and sorry for the wrong section
waiting for you my friends
anyone ??

The first (paid) app from that search result includes the ability to automatically add a watermark from the share menu, or by choosing to take a photo from the app itself which will also automatically add a watermark.
If that's too much trouble for you, try politely asking the author of the camera app you use to add watermark support.
what's exactly the name of the app ?
because i can't see any paid apps in my search
i guess there's a problem with the market in my country
MamomaN said:

Add Watermark
Thanx a lot , but it didn't work
it will be really great if i could do that with Camera360
because i always using it
anyone knows if this app developer is a member here or not ??
any way , i sent him msg , i hope he see it and help me asap
Here's the two watermark files as attachment
one in black and one in white
" in case of dark photos and light photos "
simply i want to make a modified version of Camera 360 app
to makes the app automatically add my watermark on every photo i take
make it as a optional with a side button ' on / off " or something
hope he see this
i can offer any money he needs of he could make that possible

What do you mean it didn't work? If you bought it and it's not functioning as described, contact the author via the market for support.
Because i need just one processor to make it all " capture and add the watermark "
i sent to the Camera360 developer , hope he see it
ok , here's exactly what i need , see this photo :
the explain in my last posts , hope it's clear now

Dailer & Contacts on ICS 4.0.3 issue

Search is disabled, google didn't help, but you just might ...
I got a new SGSII through an unwanted upgrade, have stock rooted ICS 4.0.3 and found that keypad, logs, favourites are under one app 'Phone', and groups, contacts and favourites under another 'Contacts'.
An old SGSII running an older version of Litening rom my friends has, got the keypad, logs, contacts, favourites and groups all in one place.
I can't seem to change this/merge them, were the merged dailer/contacts part of the previous rom? Previous touch wiz version? Or am I being dumb and not finding the setting to have them in the same screen?
Thanks for any pointers/mocking/gtfo's etc in advance

Mate, your sarcasm meter is faulty, send it off for repairs, and while your at it get treatment for those saddle sores.
And you want to raise the question know how hard/tiring one more click per use is, and you are who exactly? how heroically pedantic. Do I tell you how the way you do things are wrong?
After you have used it in a car dock extensively, I'll think you might have half an idea of the implications, until then you obviously don't get what the difference is and just want to jump on the comment about an extra few taps, bravo
"Also you have T9...." And?

Thank you for that long letter, your use is specific and valid for you, but not all who whining are using it on a car dock.

God god man, you are thicker than a 2x4 mate. :/
can't you just push the GB phone.apk into sys?
You could always install a 3rd party app like Go Contacts which comes with a dialer and have it all intergrated once again.

Thanks Aikje and Bored Stupid, proper contributions and advice
To be honest, I already had ExDialer and Contacts by the time the good Sun90 let me know it's the lay of the land with ICS. Have had a quick look at others too.
With A N Other dialers I've tried so far, you have to tap a different end of the phone, which still takes your attention away for half a second, which when crossing the A406 to get to the A1 isn't really the one, actually, anywhere in central London to be fair.
It's purely for this reason, it's the 'no look' control on the old dialer I'm after again, as I'm on the blower a lot, so am obviously evaluating other options as there could be better out there, I've only just updated to ICS so contrary to a certain peevish belief, I asked a question on a q&a forum to point me in the right direction, as the better members here of XDA know how to *cough* soap box *cough* hahahaa
Regarding the pushing of the Phone.apk, was going to be trying that tonight after backing up, it came from a custom rom and my knowledge of these things is a bit dry, so will find out if it plays nice later.
Again, thanks for the info guys
Good luck, I thought the "Black infinitum" rom(or something like that) had the combined dialer&contacts, and that is 4.0.3...
I'll try it this afternoon and give some feedback okay?
EDIT: doesn't work...

Moving from blackberry to sgs3.... need help.....

Hi all.... i have just moved from blackberry to the samsung glaxy s3....
I have a few questions regarding the contacts and the phone dialer....
1- is it somehow possible to customise the contacts view so that i can see the company name under the na.e of the contact without actually opening the contact..... this was a default thing on my blackberry n was extremely useful... i want the same to happen on android also.
2- in the phone application also i want to see the company name of the contact under the contact name.
3- i also want to see the company name in the call screen (incoming calls and outgoing calls)......
I have looked for an answer to this in these forums, google n lots of other places. I even rooted my phone to edit the contacts and the phone app, but since i have negligie knowledge of programming, was unsuccessful in that too....
Developers, can u please help me in this.....

try full screen caller id (search for it in android market), i believe that shows all details when you have an incoming call.
click thanks if i helped
Thanks alot buddy.... i have looked in the market... yes there are certain apps.... but they are limited in such a way that they will display the company name only on the actual call screen, not when i am trying to find a contact... but i will look again if u say...

[Q] How to fix Duplicate Entries in Call Log

Sorry, but i didnt find any solution yet neither on XDA nor on internet.
This is regarding the duplicate entries made by android system in Call Log List..
To be concise,
when i call a contact lets assume Mr. X.. after having conversation with Mr. X,
i called Mr. Y. & then have to call Mr. X again..
We can see, there will be two entries for Mr. X with different time-stamp.
this happen with every contact you call after the other. (SEE SCREENSHOT ATTACHED)
I use my call log list as TO-Call List (for following-up). i have to delete the multiple entries of every contact i call multiple times to keep the my call list clean & usable for this purpose.
My Ques is, How to fix this duplicate entries of single contact. as it use to be in Symbian (Nokia).
Please guide..
I get where you're going.... In SMS, every user has his own "thread" and whenever you get another message from him, it's collected in that "thread".
The stock phone/call log app doesn't work this way. It's more like an actual call log - the calls are written down chronologically, not by caller.
Perhaps there are 3rd party apps which can do it in the market.
