I know this may sound strange, but I want to retrieve the system default contact picture. You know, that icon that's used when there is no picture for the contact. It differs between different versions of Android, but it's generally a blank face, or a grey android, or whatever.
Can I get that image from the system and use it in my app?
You can find them in the drawable folder of the resources that come with the emulator.
\android-sdk\platforms\android-v#\data\res\drawable\
