How to sync contact photos from phone back to google contacts? I have updated my contact photos in my phone and then I wanted to update my google contacts.
The sync of contact data is working fine, but the photos aren't being synced.

Is there anyway I can fix this?

I have Samsung Galaxy S3 with ICS 4.0.4
Sorry, I don't have enough rep to comment, so I just ask you here:

Can you please try to:


Create a contact on your phone
Log in to http://contacts.google.com/ with your computer
see if it get's on the contacts website after you've created the contact on your phone
Change something in the contact on your phone (phone number)
See if it updates in the contacts website


If it doesn't update you have a contact sync issue.

Go to:

Settings &gt; Accounts &amp; Sync &gt; (your google account) &gt; Sync contacts


This must be enabled.

Check the last sync time, is it recent?

If this all doesn't help. As a workaround try to add a contact picture from the contacts website and check if it gets updatet into your phone. I manage all my contacts there as it is easier.
