I can't seem to be able to add a photo to any of my contacts on my galaxy s4, is there a mode or setting on my phone so that I can put pictures on my contacts?
How do I add my photo to "MY INFO" so my photo comes up in the text messages? Right now it is there for a few minutes and then it's gone.
The above method only works for contacts that are on the phone only, it wont work on contacts on the sim - for me anyway on s4 - so just import contacts from sim to phone, then edit/add picture to contact, then export those edited contacts back to sim card, easy! ;)
