Does anyone else now have this problem?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Now that you've mentioned it I can see that I am
Once I pinch in a little it sharpens.

Yeah. Omg but when I pinch it gets sharp again...

Nope, not here. Never rooted Desire.

all fine here.

Yeah, I can see it. After the photo stops sliding, it blurs a little, then zooming it goes sharp again. Strange

Same here, I noticed it earlier today... It's quite annoying

I can confirm this. HTC 2.2 rooted.

As usual, if I wouldn't read stuff on xda, my phone would seem perfect to me. Now that I'm looking into it, it is there, but the funny thing is that it doesn't happen all the time...

No issue here. Non rooted desire.

I have this problem also on 2.2 froyo stock from the forum and rooted.

Anybody has it with the unrooted, normal OTA update ?

If you tap the photo to get back to the "filmstrip" view then tap a photo to go back to full screen it go's clear again!!

YES!!!!
Non rooted non branded Desire. It is 100% issue there. I think the other guys just don't notice it or understand what you mean. Took me a while to see it.
When you browse through the gallery it used to sharpen (on stock 2.1) when you stopped on a gallery pic during your swiping. Just ever so slightly. It does not sharpen now (stock 2.2) unless you adjust the picture using pinch.
You can see this easily by choosing a picture in the gallery and clicking it. now swipe to the images either side of it and back. the picture is very very slightly blurred. pinch zoom it a tiny bit and it instantly sharpens up. I'm sure the gallery used to sharpen the gallery pics automatically in 2.1. Anyone confirm?
edit: although, maybe Im wrong. Did it ever automatically sharpen the gallery pics when yuo stopped on them, or did you have to pinch or tap the image. I think it used to self sharpen. I really don't know without someone on stock 2.1 comparing?

confirmed for sure

I have same problem with my desire after froyo update

do you think HTC brose this forum to find bugs and issues or do they only go by the number of support tickets they get? I guess this is not a big problem really is it?
It seems they are just using a cached thumbnail for the gallery pics and don't sharpen the "preview" unless you zoom in.

I've contacted HTC about this issue and even given them a link to this thread... Let's see what happens, hopefully it will be fixed in an update soon...

Ok, found what you guys mean. The last picture is always blurry, even if the circle animation has stopped to keep sharpen the rest first.

I'm not sure but I think this happened to me only when I had the picture album widget on the desktop. I removed it, rebooted and accessed photos with the shortcut and so far, no photo has been blurry.
Also going back to choosing the album would fix the issue.

Favourite People Widget (3x3 Layout)

Hey guys,
So i've finally become in the possession of an HTC Desire. Been a user for about 24 days or so and I like the phone better than the Mytouch 3G by FAR.
I have a little problem though, you see...
Everytime my favourites widget loads with all 9 contacts on the screen, their contact pictures are pixelated.
When I first assign my contacts with their pictures, I use nothing but High Res. Pictures that are cropped to a fairly large size. Ive tried minimizing the size I crop them to, but that hasn't helped either.
Throughout the day of using my phone, i'll notice the pictures go from their high res. quality back to their pixelated form. Ive even seen it in front of my eyes. Ive tried to link it back to my task killer, but ive done various test and have concluded that the task killer doesnt affect the pictures turning pixelated.
So I'm wondering, does anyone have this problem on their Desire, and if they've found a solution, what is it?
I'm currently running stock rom on Telus Mobility
Cheers!
Sorry, but can an Admin remove this thread? Thanks!

[Q] Problem with Gallery 3D [Solved]

I have this weird problem with Android's built-in Gallery, regardless of the ROM. It keeps on dragging to left, like when I start dragging the slider on the bottom of the screen to right, it keeps on jumping to left. I open a folder, it keeps on going to left. I open a picture, it keeps on jumping to left and switching to previous pics. As I've said, it doesn't matter what ROM I'm using, it's always there. It was on LeeDrOiD, And Today I just flashed CM7 just to check how it is, and it was still there!!! This is in fact one of the reason's that I don't use CM, though I really love how it looks.
That's just Gallery 3D. I prefer to use QuickPic from the market.

Its probably still trying to load images as you try and scroll through them.
From what I've read, there's not many fans of Gallery 3D

True. This happened to me the other day and wouldn't stop. I rebooted and let them load and it was fine. Once you have let them load, they seemed to have been cached so it will load faster next time.
Yes, quickpic is much faster than 3D gallery.
it also depends on your sd card. however, gallery 3d is one of the worst apps for picture viewing ever.

Front Facing Camera...

Is anyone's front facing camera pretty sluggish and laggy when using it? I can snap photos fine, but when I'm displaying things through the front camera, it's pretty sluggish when moving about.
Thats because you are video chatting it'll laggy like that.

I don't do video chatting though. It is when I switch the camera from the back one to the front one that I experience lagginess.
Who said he was video chatting lol I didn't see that in op. To answer ur question I see some lagginess to tho not a big deal to me don't use it that much. It actually takes OK pics too.....in a good light setting

Yeah I think you're right. I just tested this out on my sister's Galaxy S 4G, and although they're completely different phones, I think the "lagginess" is just a limitation of the camera and not a defect. I implied in my OP that I had a defect for my FFC, but in reality, I think it's just made that way. It snaps photos fine so I can live with it.
Funny thing is, my old phone, an EVO 3D, didn't have nearly as much stutter or lag on the front facing cam. Oh well. Heh.
I'm not too distrubed by the lag....but I have another problem. Whenever I take a picture using the front camera. It takes it fine, but then instantly mirrors it (Right -> Left). So if someone was standing behind me on the right in the pic, when I capture it, it shows it fine for a second but then reverses it as soon as it goes to the little gallery icon on the bottom left. So tthen the guy looks like hes standing on the left. Any fix for this?
I found this annoying too! But then I discovered all I had to do was flip it in the Samsung photo editor app. Just click the share button and share with photo editor. The second arrow on the top shows rotation options and it looks perfect.

Are you talking about in the market? If you changed your DPI then you will have issues with market capability. As far as updating an app from a website, never heard of it.

[SOLVED] Corrupt Image bug?

I don't know if I'm the only one experiencing this, but some of my images I guess become corrupted I think. I'm not sure how to explain it, just look at the screenshots. When i go to the picture, it's fine, but a split second later a bunch of gray lines cover up the whole picture. I don't know what could be wrong?
One picture shows it as the lines start and the other shows when it's fully covered.
Yea it sucks just delete them. Not sure why these phones do this.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Don't delete them. They're fine. Did you try viewing them in a different gallery, say Quickpic?
This happens with progressive jpeg's due to a gallery tweak for "HQ" images.
B39 of AOKP removed this tweak.
I'm not sure if CM9 has, I'd assume not.
In any case:
QuickPic is a great alternative that will allow viewing AND setting as wallpaper despite the native gallery errors.
Extremely helpful, thanks guys. It was starting to bug the hell out of me.

Camera Issues

I've tried using different roms even tried stock and different camera apps but i'm still having similar problems. For example: when i use the stock camera app, i can see everything just fine. When I take the picture though you can't see anything. I then go to my gallery and take a look at the photos and its just a black picture. Right now i'm using Silent Camera app, When i app loads the screen is very blurry and distorted. After I take the picture though the picture comes out perfectly clear. I'm not sure what's going on. Right now im' using PAC All-star rom. I've tried everything and don't know what to do. Hopefully someone can help me out with this. Thanks!
u tried Odin stock? if GB 2.3.6 camera app out of the box isn't working, it may be a hardware issue
