I better fix this before my girlfriend comes to visit if I want to keep her!

HELP!

(I'm going to use names to make this easier to explain)

My girlfriend's name is Natalie. I text and call her so much throughout the day, that instead of going into my lists and scrolling to her name, I wanted to put a shortcut to her on my home page. (I'm sure I'll also get mega bonus points from her when she sees it)

Herein lies the problem. I touch and hold from the homepage, select 'Shortcuts', then 'Contact' and select her name. The icon that pops up is mixed up - It has her name, and when clicked, her contact info pops up, but my friend Rachel's picture shows up instead of Natalie's! I've tried deleting the contact and re-selecting it. I've tried turning the phone off and then back on, then deleting and re-selecting, but the same thing keeps happening.

How can I fix this? I searched, but haven't seen this problem pop up yet.

Thanks,
William

Do you use facebook sync for pictures?

For kicks, I decided to try adding Rachel's contact to see if I'd get my girlfriend's picture there, but it gives me a different incorrect pic for her too. I've tried a number of other friends, and none of them get added with the correct profile pic - it's always some other friend's picture.

I do use facebook in my contacts, however if I add the Motorola Widget 'Contact Quick Tasks' and select her the app shows the correct picture. Unfortunately, I don't like the look of that widget, so I wanted to use the contact shortcut. The contact shortcut is the only one that gets it mixed up.

Thanks!

Try going into settings>Applications/All tab>Contacts and try wipe the data/cache from there. worth a shot.

Thanks. I just tried it, and nothing changes. The funny thing is, it's consistently the same incorrect pic every time.

I don't go about it that way. I long press, select Shortcuts then select Direct Dial. I then scroll to the person's number (mobile, home, etc) and select the correct one. The image that shows is that in the contacts. If the contacts is wrong, I go to edit the contact info, press the image and find my own image from the gallery for that person. Then when I put on the homescreen as described above, it's correct.

I'll look into that - I use text messaging way more than actually calling - can I set that up with texting, or is that only for dialing her phone number?

Yes, instead of selecting "Direct Dial" select Direct Message and then search for her mobile number. The first time you try it, it may ask for you to make a selection of which messaging app (if you have more than one), just check the Use as Default box and pick the one you use.
