In my Galaxy S5, the "My Info" local profile shows the standard avatar, and only my phone number. I previously manually added my own picture, just so I would see my own picture in the messaging app.
Is there a way to link the local contact with my Google+/Facebook/Gmail picture? I have a contact entry for my own info under "Me" that I manually entered in Gmail years ago.
It has the following text "Following unknown links leaves your phone and personal data vulnerable. By tapping OK, you agree that you are solely responsible for any damage to your phone or loss of data that may result from following this link". There are no messaging settings that turn this off.
I was only able to find one thing from an S5 question and the solution was unchecking a setting while in safe mode? How to do that on the S6 but i don't really want to have to if i can avoid it. I'm on AT&T btw and am running 5.1.1.
I'm using Samsung galaxy s2 unlocked from bell. ISP: Fido prepaid account, with unlimited texting add on. I am unable to recieve picture messaging (MMS). Does it require data to recieve data and are you able to use your wifi to recieve mms? When i receive the mms, it just keeps saying download. I have tried enabling data packet but that doesnt work. My VPN settings is:
Name: Fido Internet
APN: fido-core-appl1.apn
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set

I have an unusual issue I would like some assistance on since I just got a blackberry, I have the Curve 2 8530. I use Total Call Blocking with my carrier so that when I call anyone my number is automatically blocked / restricted. Therefore, in my contact list, I have my friends or family contacts listed with the *82 in front of the number to unblock for those people. This works fine for phone calls.
However, on Text Messaging / Picture Messaging, the *82 will cause these messages to fail. I am used to LG phones, you have the ability to edit the number while creating a message, before your send one of these messages. The problem I am having is when I send a Text Message / Picture Message it appears from the blackberry as only the 10 digit number (even though the contact has *82 in front of it)...and the message shows it is sent (with the check mark) but it NEVER received.
Default contact profile picture for me doesn't show up in sms app for Samsung Galaxy s6... the other persons picture appears next to their text, but mine does not. I previously had the S3 and my picture appeared next to my messages. How to have my picture next to my texts for my S6?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSomehow some of the contacts on the "Messaging contacts list" have mixed info. For instance the name doesn't match the picture or the name and picture do not match the related cell no. (1) How do I delete the contact entirely? (2) How do I edit the related info? (3) What if for instance my contact changed their cell no. and I need to edit the list or the info on a particular contact?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got a Lumia 950, set up all my accounts, added Skype, and now my Skype messages show up in the app AND in my Messaging hub. I wouldn't mind, but now I'm getting Messaging alerts AND Skype alerts that I have new messages when I receive a Skype message. I did find a setting in Skype that turns off the messaging alerts for Skype messages, but they're still showing up, even when I'm using Skype on my PC. In two hours of work this morning this has gone past confusing to the point of being annoying.

Is this a change?
I have a 5800 that I have been troubleshooting for the past Month. We have been to the provider who has now replaced the phone twice in the past two months. Calling out appears to be fine. However when customizing the phone I am unable to set picture and a ringtone to a contact in the contact list. The Contact is saved on the phone. When the person dials in the picture will display correctly but the ringtone will play a default ring not a custom file as selected. This has heppened on all 3 of the phones. I am down to the OS of the phone which the provider says is up to date.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter having gone a couple of months withs with Gingerbread without any problems to report I started experiencing a strange thing with incoming calls, texts, emails, etc.For incoming calls, the number displayed is the correct number but the screen pulls an incorrect name from my contacts list and displays a picture (taken from either LinkedIn or Facebook profiles) that is from a third, different contact.So the number is for Contact A and is the actual caller, the name that is displayed is contact B and the photo is contact c.If I go to make an outgoing call, the same thing in the inverse occurs.I choose Contact A and it dials contact A but displays it is calling contact B.This has caused me to have to double & triple check when I am making calls to ensure that it is calling the right contacts.
A similar thing happens for texts, incoming texts display the correct number from which they are originating but display that they are from a different contact name.When I go to send a text and enter a number it indicates that it is sending it to the correct phone number but with a different name assocaited with that number. Finally, something similar is happening in email messaging. If I hit reply, while the actual email address is correct the contact name that it lists is incorrect.
My issue is i have been able to received mms from my contacts, however when i myself try to send one it comes up with an "error: please try again". The only thing is once i turn imessage on and send the picture it then works.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Sony Xperia Z3 from Rogers and I am using the Messaging app provided by Sony.
Â
The Messaging app worked properly until I needed to send the phone away for service about two months ago. When the phone came back, I used the Sony desktop app to restore my data. After that, whenever I receive a picture via text message and I press the picture to open it, the wrong picture appears. For example, I received a picture today from a friend. When I click on it, an old picture from my camera roll appears. I have tried clearing the Messaging app's cache, disabling it, restarting the phone, and then re-enabling the Messaging app. Nothing works.
Â
The other texting apps on my phone (Messenger, by Google, for example) work properly. The problem is isolated to the Messaging app from Sony. And my phone works properly otherwise - this is the only issue.
I just upgraded BBM to the latest version but now, I can't view my chat history with my contacts. However, when I plug my BB in to my computer, I can find the .csv files that have the history for each of my contacts.How can I make it so that I can review the history of each contact in BBM?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI upgraded from the Cliq a few months ago. So I noticed when I link contacts together that it doesn't always keep the name of the contact that I open. It'll change it. Example: I open the contact "Dad" and then link another contact for him "John Doe" and then it will change the name from Dad (which I opened first) to John Doe. Why is it doing that? It did not do that when linking contacts in my Cliq

View 2 Replies View RelatedToday suddenly both Messaging and Contacts became virtually unuseable. Â Both kept crashing and the device was getting through it battery really fast and getting hot. Â I tried to figure out what was wrong however as i had not installed any apps for a few days i could not see any reason for this sudden change.
Â
I defaulted the device and started again, I have just got everying back and its started again.
Â
When opening Messaging it wil be really slow - when typing the message its slow and you have to wait for the text to catch up.
When you go to dial a number it tries to query the number you are dialing against contacts - it keeps crashing and closing Contacts.
If you turn off WiFi and mobile data it seems to be better but still crashes from time to time.
Â
I have selected to sync my contacts from Facebook and Exchange email however currently my contacts are empty. Â
Despite this I received an SMS from a Facebook contact and it displays their name in Messaging - but they are not there in contacts...
Â
With Wifi truned on the device seems to be getting really hot.
