XPERIA X2 - strange contact photo sync bug/problem. - XPERIA X2 General

Posted this one on esato too.
The bug or problem or whatsoever I find quite annoying is, that I have assigned profile pictures in Address book on my Mac. When I click on that profile pictures on my mac, they show up in full res. But when I sync the whole address book to my X2, and go to dialer, pictures show up very small, in a rounded square, example is here:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Picture synced from computer's address book
But, if I select contact in that dialer and click on Menu/Assign Contact Photo, and select the same picture I used on my computer, I get this picture to fill the screen up - just like that:
Picture applied on Xperia X2
Same thing is when you are calling, in first case you get this small ugly square in a dialer:
Picture synced from computer's address book
But in second case (applied the picture from WinMo device) the contact picture nicely fills the screen, needless to say that this looks much nicer to me - and i guess that would be anybody elses opinion too.
Picture applied on Xperia X2
I tried same thing with MissingSync / Sync Mate on MAC (Address Book) and over ActiveSync (Outlook 2003) on Windows computer, and I got the same squares everywhere, so I guess this is not a third party program issue.
Maybe anybody knows any solution for that, or knows, if this is made intentionally?
Thanks in advance.

I had noticed the same...

What is the GUI Skining application you are using that "!STILL!" shows the phone signal icon. Most GUI Skinning apps cover this info up! Please let me know I can't wait, so excited! :shock:

The picture is not a screen capture of hops's XDA but taken from oabsoftware. And you are right, I didn't notice this. We have to ask them what were they using when they took this picture.
yes please do! I see sometime people doctoring the display to make their product look nice but, it really gets a lot of people excited about something that does not exist I have seached long and hard and nothing seems to be able to do it without cover the signal bars :evil: so I thought it might be pocket blinds a new version but they still have the old one out from years ago no update, and it doesn't work. So needless to say my hopes are high here. So keep us posted I'm sure I'm not the only one wanting this 8)

i also sent you a pm
problem with this aps is that its fixed size on the caller images... i need some program that i can have like 4 images on the screen ower the whole screen
If you just want 4 huge pictures, you probably need to use a third party dialler or wisbar/WAD.
However, for a simple/simplistic today dialler, try claunch with my VJPhoneTools.

You'll actually need two programs to do this as Vijay said ; WA2 and WAD
But then you will gain full control of your screen, and graphic-sizes.....well you actually get TOTAL control

Wanted: Photocalendar

Hi,
I'm looking for a program like the calendar of the Casio Exilim Cameras.
Since my english is really bad, i'll quote the description from a review:
"Interesting playback feature three is the calendar. This shows a calendar of the current month, with a tiny thumbnail picture shown on the day it was taken. This is a nice (and different) way to jump through your photos by date."
A screenshot of the program, can also be found there:
http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/casio/exilim_p600-review/index_pfv.shtml
Is something like taht already available or ... is somebody going to write one?
It's good. It would be great app, but I don't know any similar

Yes, and it would be easy to build... just a calendar frontend for an existing imageviewer...
perhaps a programmer reads this
thats really cool . very nice idea.

Bringing the taskbar to the bottom of the screen

Hello Everyone, I hope you all are fine.
I saw a photo of an imate jam (the one I have) who's taskbar was on the bottom of the screen. Here is the photo:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
May be its just me, but I cannot find any way of bringing it down. I want my phone to look more like real windows and the taskbar on the top doesn't look very good. Also, as you can see in the picture, the address bar of the PIE is also on the top, just like the real IE. Somehow everything in the above phone is setup to look more like real windows. It would be so great if I somebody could suggest a way to do this.
Is this possible? Of course its possible when someone has already done that. But the question is 'how.'
I expected a better response here on XDA-Developers. I posted the same question in another forum but people there didn't seem to be too intelligent. But I'm surprised that even among people who are programmers, I can't see something that could be encouraging.
If you're a programmer reading my post, you could perhaps take a hint about this from Pocket Notepad. When I run this program on WM5 (on HTC Wizard) it does the same effect: Brings the taskbar to the bottom, exactly as I am wanting. It looks very beautiful. But as soon as I close or minimize pocket notepad, everything goes back to its normal position.
actually i wanted to see how to do that too, because to me the bar on the bottom just seems more "normal"...

[WAD2] Working on a concept: Feedbacks?

So, I'm working on a concept called Devonshire and I'd like to get people's opinions on it.

What I want to do with the photo stack is actually keeping the white frame and cutting out the photo so users can add their own photo underneath to simulate their own photo. Is there a way to do to this and make the photo cycle at a predetermined interval?
The Home Page icons are all new and semi-transparent. The 1st icon will bring up a sub-menu with 6-8 most common used programs. The 2nd icon is the phone icon. The 3rd icon is the alt-tab icon. The 4th is the S2U2 icon.
I'm thinking that pressing on the clock will open the "next appointment" dock.
What do you guys think?
Terrific concept. Look forward to the finished product.
I updated the first page with the five different tabs side-by-side. Right now, I'm about 80% done with getting things installed unto WAD. By later today, I should have a version that I can upload here =D
For both the apps/settings page and contacts page, the bottom right and bottom left corner of the book will change the pages (docks).
I have a question: For the home page, is there a way on WAD to make the photos change every 5 min automatically?
Also, I haven't played around with the built-in agenda in WAD, but is it possible to use the graphics I have for the agenda (Today header strip, highlighted strip, day header strip)
Any feedbacks?
It looks a little cluttered to me, but it still looks nice.
