2 problems :)

(Iphone 3G, 3.1.2, Tmobile, 5.13.04, Itunes 9 )

1. Iphone wont sync properly

Half way through the sync it would give error.... first it was not syncing photos... so I changed the name of the iphone and tried again.. now its syncing photos.. but not contacts...

Everytime I upgrade Firmware or Jailbreak... I always end up losing a lot of contacts

2. Cant assign photos to contacts...

I know the process .. click on photo.. it gives u option "assign to contact"... I did that.. but when i reopen CONTACTS there are no photos next to the contacts...

go to itunes 10.2.2(or whatever is the latest).

there are apps that can backup your contacts, like pkgbackup.

if you want picturesto show next to the names in the list form(also when you click on someone) install cynatct from cydia, it does just that.

I do have cyntact but still...when someone calls/txt no photo
