Does anybody know of such a tweak/app?

I'm looking for something similar to TextFree but for the native SMS application - where it has the contact picture on the left side on the actual list of texts (not within a particular convo, but the "master" list of texts).

I added the ChatPic tweak but it only adds the contact pictures within the particular convo.

I've done a good bit of web searching with no luck.
 
bite sms does this very well
i would suggest purchasing it for its quick reply feature as well :"D
 
Sorry, I meant for the native app. She's (my sister in law) already using BiteSMS and that's actually what gave her the wish for pictures in the native app.

Now that I look at the app on her phone though I see that basically I can just hide her native SMS icon via SBSettings and put the Bite SMS in it's place and it will be how she wants.
 
Yeah you could also change the icon to the normal sms app and then rename it using some cydia tweaks :D
 
I think you're thinking of a tweak called chatpic, shows the photo in the sms conversation.

I already added ChatPic (in my first post)

ChatPic only adds the photo in a particular (single) conversation. I/we are looking for an app/tweak that adds the photos on the actual "master" list of conversations. Just like how TextFree does.

Benji - how would I change the icon to the normal SMS app? Just by changing the image file via SSHing?
