I have an issue with my htc 10
Whenever i put a photo for any contact it will stay in full quality for couple of days
Then it will become as mosaic checker box pattern with low quality later
Any solution for this

The fix is to sign into your Google account on the web and go to your contacts. From there you can upload hi res photos and it will sync to your phone. You should also select the star for android in each contact. Easier done on a desktop or laptop

I already tried this. First, the hires picture is synched to the phone. But after some time, it is replaced with a lowres picture.

Yes, they are favorites and therefore marked as starred. I just tried again with the latest 1.90.x ROM. Until now, the hires picture sticks. Let's see for how long.
It does not stick if its not starred, im already on 1.90.x
Is this the same behavior in stock android, or just htc branded ones?

It's a feature of Google Contacts..
P.S. I keep all my Contacts stored in the phone, and backing them up as VCF file..

Sent from quite brutal hTc 10 ..
