HTC EVO 4G :: "Update Profile" / Lost All Pictures / Videos / Movies
Jun 21, 2010
I frequently (once a week), will manually check for firmware, PRL, etc. updates. Yesterday, I tried whatever "Update Profile" is and after that I lost all of my pictures and videos. Is that what did it? Or do I have another issue here? Or did it happen after I took a pic of my home screen with Shoot Me? Also, I'm pretty sure I just copied my videos file from my PC (30 AVI's) to my SD card and then phone read them. Now, it won't, any after some research it doesn't look like the EVO even supports AVI? I'm pretty sure I didn't' convert anything than one DVD. Otherwise this phone is suhweet. 32GB cards can't come fast enough.

Has anyone else experienced this? Some of the pics I have taken are still there but no where near as many as I had before I updated. Same deal with videos I have taken

So I've been running without 3G (disabling it with the Quick Settings app) for the great battery savings. However, in the past few weeks, I've lost 3G altogether even when I re-enable it. I've tried updating the profile & PRL, no luck. Any ideas? Hoping to not have to do a full phone wipe.

Does anybody know how to make my Droid update facebook profile pics in my contacts? They have never updated since my initial contacts setup?

Do not update your profile via Setting/System Updates.
It deletes your pictures, videos, and movies. Just an FYI in a more prime location since not everyone reads the troubleshooting forum.

If you must do it, back your SD card up first.

If you use Outlook (like me) to control your address book, and you have pictures on some of the names in your address book, and you used the HTC Sync to import those names to the Evo 4G into the contacts on the phone, you have noticed that when you make or receive calls to the people with the pictures on their names that the photo is blurry and looks horrible.
I asked around on here and looked at other places but did not really receive a clear answer. So playing with the phone for a few minutes I figured out what I have to do to get clear pictures on the contacts profiles on the phone.
1. Connect the phone to the computer and put the phone in Disk Drive mode.
2. Explore the phones drive and goto the DCIM folder. Inside there I went into 100MEDIA.
3. You take a picture from your computer or whatever source and transfer it into that folder on the cell phone
4. After you move the picture to the phone, disconnect the phone from the computer or change the phones setting to Charge Only
5. On the cell phone, press Phone. From the Phone screen press Menu - People and choose a person
6. On the persons profile via your phone, scroll down to Edit Contact and press that
7. On the top left corner press the camera icon and choose Gallery on the popup
8. Choose the folder where the picture is, should be in Camera Shots
9. Choose the picture. After you do this you will be shown a "cropping" zone.
10. Crop the image by moving the outlined box around the part of the image you want to show up when you make or receive calls of that person. Press Save
11. Back on the personal profile on the phone just scroll down and press save, and your done.
This method is for transferring pictures of your computer to your phone. To use pictures you've taken on the phone just change the walk through around a little.
Enjoy.
EDIT TO #10 - Cropping Image:
I just saw that when cropping, you can press your finger on the green line and you will get arrows that show up. you can then slide your finger and make the box bigger or smaller. Just a quick update of this tutorial.

I want my contacts to have the facebook profile pictures. Most of them update, but i noticed some dont, which wouldve been bearable if a couple werent in my favourites (people) widget.
I've used SyncMyPics and it seemed to work fine, but all the pictures are now using the gmail picture which is blurry (fixed if i deleted the pic in gmail so itll used facebooks higher quality). but heres the problem, when i go to the contact to pic a new picture, the options are google and facebook, but the google is the updated picture, and facebook is still the old one. I want to use facebook too because its much better quality.

I want profile pictures of my contacts on both my phone and web email. Which is the best way to do this. If I match pictures to contacts on my phone will it sync with my web mail contacts, or will it work if I sync my google contacts on my web mail, then sync to my phone. Will either achieve my goal of having the picture attached to the contact on both my phone and web browser? OR must I do each one on the phone, and on the web mail browser?

Any power-point viewers capable of playing videos? I'm pretty close to trading in my Android for an Apple given that there is no viewer that I have been able to find that supports videos.
I could convert my ppt to a movie, but would prefer not to go this route. Also, I am unable to wait until 2013 when Microsoft makes available its Office for android as well as ipad/iphone.

This is the final question for me that has yet to be answered. It's the only thing still left up in the air. I want to be able to plug my EVO into the TV and use all the features currently on the phone. Specifically web browsing. If this is not available can we blame it on a hardware limitation or software. Maybe it's something that will work with the Dock when it's released since it comes with an HDMI cable. I can't believe I can't find a straight answer considering Ive seen the question asked on other forums as well. If it works the way I would hope then it's an easy replacement for my jaloppy of a computer.

Is there a way to get facebook profile pictures into your gmail contacts? The main reason why I want them is for texting in the google voice app looks very plain without personal images.
I tried just putting in my own images into my gmail contacts to see if they would show up in the google voice app and they still dont show up. My ideal situation would be to use the facebook pictures, but if I need to I will go the second route of putting individual images into my gmail contacts and sync them that way, but I can't get either to work

Bizarrely I seem to have lost all the videos I had on my SD Card. Including those I had recorded with my phone, these were in the same folder as the photos which are all still there.
Also missing are the films I had on there in a totally different folder on the SD card.
It is as if I have set it to search and delete anything that ressembled a video.
Anyone know how/why this could have happened.
I have rebooted several times, and removed and re-seated the card.

I currently have the Galaxy S4. When I switch from the Droid Charge to S4 i put my SD card into my new phone.During the week I was able to see all of my pictures on the new phone then on saturday 6/8 half of my pictures disappeared. I called Verizon and of course they are saying its a corrupt sd card.
This is what I did so far. I removed my SIM card and placed it into a card reader and attached it to my computer. On my PC I unhide the following
- show hidden files, folders and drives
-unhide empty drives in the computer folder
I went thru all folders and could not find anything.
/storage/emulated/0
/storage/ExtStcard
I also looked at the device while the SIM card was inserted into the phone.
