I am on Virtuous 2.6 ROM and noticed a curious thing going on with my contact images. I have used Handcent since day one with my Incredible and about a week ago the contact images stopped showing for my most often used texting contacts. I have found that new contacts that text me, or some that havent texted much have images showing, but my family (most used) don't. I have tried everything I can think of. I don't think it is the ROM, I have uninstalled Handcent, deleted cache, reinstalled, deleted all conversations, and even tried Chomp....same results.

Any ideas? Is this happening to others?

Thanks for any feedback

Try turning off the social integration section in handcent. i think that is designed to replace contact images with facebook images. as in, if they dont have a facebook, no picture. other than that, no idea.

Never even went into that part of the settings, but it was on. I never changed it to cause it to have the images and then stop suddenly, but worth a shot...now I need to sit and wait for another text LOL! Thanks for the suggestion, I'll post results.

I wouldn't be so concerned about it, but that is my identifyer at work or driving (I don't text while driving, but it is a good indicator if I need to get to it sooner than later) and kinda instrumental to my entire lock-screen layout!!!
