Sync contact pictures

[AutoImport-ghost]

Is it possible to sync the profile pictures as well?
My hoster for example can store pictures for contacts.

[devvv4ever]

Currently syncing contact pictures (a small version) is supported by davdroid. we’ve however only tested it in one direction (create image on phone and sync it not otherwise). It works for me with radicale. But we didn’t have the time to test this with other servers/providers. Do you create profile pictures on your server? Which one do you use?

[AutoImport-ghost]

For me it only works if I upload the pic on the server (posteo.de) and sync the phone with it.
I also tried it from phone to server but in that case it shows a blank picture. Not the native one by server, but just white.

Please test with current master or 0.3.7 as soon as it’s released

has this been fixed? I’m syncing contacts with DavDroid 0.5.11 (on Android 4.3.1) to a baikal server and no photos are included. The exported vcf file written by android (of course) contains the according “PHOTO;ENCODING=BASE64;JPEG:” field, while there is no such field in the “http-outgoing” messages shown by adb-logcat during a davdroid sync for the same contact.

Yes this, has been fixed and works here. Please create a new issue with steps to reproduce and provide log output.

[AutoImport-rigid]

At first I found out, that android 4.3.1 doesn’t seem to export vcards correctly. It put “PHOTO;ENCODING=BASE64;JPEG:” where it should have put “PHOTO;JPEG;ENCODING=BASE64:” so photos weren’t imported correctly. This has been fixed with a ```sed -i ‘s/ENCODING=BASE64;JPEG/JPEG;ENCODING=BASE64/g’ 00001.vcf````. This wasn’t a fault of davdroid, I just mention it for the record.

To reproduce the davdroid bug, follow these steps:

1. Import test vcard https://gist.github.com/rigid/9983590 into DavDROID account
2. Sync
3. Get java.io.FileNotFoundException: No photo file found for ID 0 (full log: https://gist.github.com/rigid/9983670 )
   Maybe it’s important to note that “ID” is always “0”, even when importing multiple contacts.

[rfc2822]

1. This is a VCard version 2.1. CardDAV requires VCard 3. – So my CardDAV server doesn’t even work with this VCard (have just tried it).
2. The “No photo found for file ID 0” is normal and means that DAVdroid couldn’t find a high-res photo in the Android contacts database that could be put into the VCard.
3. When I put the PHOTO line into this VCard (3) on the server:

DAVdroid syncs correctly, including the photo. Proof:

[AutoImport-rigid]

1. Android 4.3.1 exports and imports vCard 2.1 - Step 1 in my previous comment didn’t say “import into your CardDAV server” but “import into davdroid account” (using any app on an android phone, i used the default contacts app). It gets imported correctly including the photo. Please try to import the 2.1 vcard on your android phone and then sync it. It should import correctly and then fail to sync. (This should be always the case for 2.1 vcards with photos, e.g. if you receive it via email or bluetooth)
2. It didn’t find it, but it is there, since the contact app displays the photo. I guess this is where the error is.
3. I have no problems with photos when syncing from server -> client. The problem is to get the photos from client -> server when they weren’t written to the client by davdroid.

[rfc2822]

Indeed, I can now reproduce the issue.

wow, that was quick. Awesome! Looking forward for testing this. Thank you.
