Hey Toni, welcome to the AndroidForums!

You'd think a guy like me with three Android devices would know the answer to your question, but, uh....nope . I sort of assumed that it worked by matching-up the phone number on your Gmail account's contact list as the call came in and then displayed the name for you (maybe there's a setting I don't know about)...not sure, but hopefully the good folks in your phone's main forum can guide you best since they have your same phone and know it best:

HTC Wildfire S - Android Forums

There might be others along here that already know the answer and will chime-in.

Cheers!

Welcome to Android Forums, Toni.

I believe the contact must be gmail contacts for the names and pictures to show up on incoming calls. And if you have double contacts, like duplicates in gmail and facebook, they should be joined.
