Want to ask is this the common problem in K750i?
When I take photo using my K750i, the picture quality is very sharp and good. But..when I attached the photo to the contact name the quality is drop.
So.. when my friend call me their picture did show in my phone, but the quality is not as good as the original photo.
I tried with other friend K750i and still have the same problem.

Anyone know how to solve this problem?

I don't think it's a problem. I think the phone renders an inferior quality pic so it can display it quickly when some1 calls.

You are almost correct, though

It doesnt render a new picture as such, but it does rescale the large cameraphoto to the much smaller resolution of contactphotoview when the phone rings.
The rescaling decreases quality since resolution does not match.
And furthermore increases the time to display because the picture is to large.

Contactphotos should not be assigned directly from large camerapictures, but should be resized/cropped to correct contactphotosize in an imageeditor before assigning to contact for best quality.

welcome to esato, and to the delightfull world of K750

you could also take cameraphotos specifically for contactphotos at lowest resolution 160x120, that would fit resonably well as contactphoto.

A litle startadvice/info regarding K750:

1. Note, when you attach the usb cable between the phone and computer, the computer takes over control of the memorycard as removable drive, therefore the phone cannot acces the memorycard while connected. Its not an error

2. Because of above (and for other reasons where the memorycard may not be available in the phone) make sure that all files which you would somehow use in the phone setup are stored in the internal memory. Themes, ringtones, contactphotos, wallpapers, startupscreen, screensavers etc. make sure these are copied to the internal memory and assigned from there. This way the functions in the phone using these items, are not dependent on the memorycard being present to work. Use the memorycard for fun things instead, music, video, camerapictures etc.

@malbee
You'd better crop and rescale the picture for contacts to 176x176 resolution. It will be in full screen and good resolution picture when the contact calls or be called or send you a message.

Eh, no, It wont be in full screen, it can only be displayed within the popup box which is 168x152 pixels, and it will allways have approx 3 pixels black bars to the edges of the popup box. Therefore to fill the popupbox the optimal size for contactphotos are either 168x152 or if you want to take into account the black bars to avoid any scalling at all it should be 162x146 pixels.
