Hi,
Ever since I'm using CM7 (which is great btw!) I have this strange bug when using whatsapp. When I'm in gallery and send an image with whatsapp it works perfect, but when I then open whatsapp again, it resends that same image. This also happens when i slide the keyboard in or out. Very very very annoying. I have conversations with more than 10 times the same image
Cancelling the upload is near impossible, you'd have to be as fast as usain bolt, and I'm not...
Anyone know a solution for this?
Thanks,
Hiskkkei
p.s:
I now see that this is my first post. Stupid. I'll say hi in the appropriate thread, but have to wait 5 mins ...
Strange, im on CM7 and dont have this bug with whatsapp...

I do have the same bug. I've found a way around it, though. Happens to me not only with images or videos from the gallery, but mp3s from other apps too.
What I do is send the attachment, then as soon as it shows as uploading on the timeline, I start hitting the "back" button till I'm faced with the Homescreen again. I then open Whatsapp the "normal" way, instead of an instance from Gallery.
It then finishes sending the attachment, that is only sent one time, doing this.
It's very annoying but I ended up getting used to the workaround! =)
Same thing happens to me.
It's very annoying indeed, but I found that if I send something using the attachment knob in whatsapp, it doesn't happen. It only happens when I use "share" in gallery or astro or some other app. So from now on that's the way to go for me.
Thanks for your help anyway

This is not related to cm7. I have the same problem with stock rom.

While I've been a member of XDA for quite a while (since my early days with a TyTn II), I've never posted. Mostly because I've always found an applicable post regarding my interest, need, problem, etc.. Can't find anything this time!
I recently upgraded from an original Moto Droid to the Incredible (bought off E-Bay) and have two annoying issues.
The biggest is that, unlike the Moto Droid, the music stops whenever I switch from music player to another app. On the Droid, I could go to the home screen or browser, etc and still listen to music. The weird thing is that it still exhibits the same behavior after rooting and loading the latest JagerRom. Is this just normal for the Incredible?
The second problem (not so much), is that the phone refuses to automatically pull my apps down from the Market after an upgrade or factory restore. It syncs Contacts and email just fine, but I've had to reload my apps manually after each restore and the switch to JagerRom. It's had this issue since day one.
Any thoughts/advice would be much appreciated!
how are you accessing your music? to start it playing? I noticed that if you go through a file manager and play a song you have to leave the music app open or if when you back out it will stop but if you go to the music app and start it then you can back out and it will play in the background fine. Make sense?
Thanks for the reply. I'm playing purely from within the stock player. That's why I'm baffled by the problem.

hmm thats very strange. not sure what to tell you on that. Ill try to rack my brain some more and let ya know if I come up with anything.
I thought I should chime in here also. I am also experiencing this issue. Seems like navigation is killing pandora instead of muting it. Very annoying on road trips, a fix would be much appreciated.
Tryed to install the app from this thred http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056793 .
The app seems working and alow me to do video call. The only problem is that from the phone I can see who is on the other side while not possible the other way round. Seems that the rear camera is disabled. Anyone else having this issue? olved Somehow?
PS. I know it's weird to use the rear camera, so please is useless to remember this.
Problem fixed. Needed to install googleservicesframwork.apk . Now everything is working better than expected.
Hey man, did you use the googleservicesframwork.apk from the very same thread?
I updated it using this file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233682 and it sort of works fine, only thing is that my camera is still not transmitting to the other side, they see black screen. I see them fantastic, sound is great as well.
Can you point out what version of files you installed?
Thanks in advance
Update: It works when my girl video calls me from xperia mini, by "it works" I mean it works with known limitations, and that is 10s lag on my video, I see her real time. It didn't show video on pc, but it is not an issue for me, audio works great though, and that is what I need.
Desire Z video calls...SOLVED? (".)
I wonder is there any apps out there that are able to switch the hardware internally, and point it to external webcam.
What I'm trying to get at is using remote desktop on laptop at same time as phone being used as the webcam? Would this not solve the issue at hand.
So I would suggest the following steps...
Install remote web desktop app on dz > Launch browser on laptop/pc/Spare desire Z (hey they're discont'd after all!) > point phone and go !!
Let me know if this is solved for you (".) Smiley face (".)
I take a picture, and then select the photo at the bottom of the camera screen.. it opens the gallery, then is VERY slow.. often I can't pinch & zoom, or select a sharing icon.. then suddenly the multi screen sometimes turns on. I though maybe it's because the tv icon at the top of the photo is showing 9+ meaning that's it's found 9 devices to share my photo too.. I thought maybe that is slowing it down. I tried turning off allshare cast, but can't seem to keep it off. I don't even know if that is even what it is. Frustrating. Not sure if that even made sense?
Anyone else having a gallery bog down like this?
thanks.

What is the Android version that you're using? 4.1.1? I'm using 4.1.2 and I have the same issue, but it feels more like a bug than an actual issue. I hope Samsung fixes this in the next 4.1.2 release.
I noticed the gallery lags terribly if I have photos that sync to it (Dropbox or FB sync to gallery) so I turned those off and it was lagless.
Other than that, I have no idea what could be the issue.

I know this is an old thread, but I was suddenly having the same issue. Turning off Dropbox sync seems to have solved it. Thanks for the tip.
Hello,
Yesterday I purchased the Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch for Virgin Mobile (SP-D710VMUB). I am incredibly happy with the phone so far, however when I downloaded Instagram, I discovered that recording video caused the phone to freeze, and eventually restart on its own.
After searching for the problem, I saw that some LG users had a problem where only the front facing camera would record. I thought I'd give it a shot, and the front facing camera works perfectly. No freezing or crashes. I also so the post about the Epic 4G Touch where users had to disable 'Use Instagram's Advanced Camera'. After disabling the option, I am unable to select video, and am only able to take photos.
Nothing else seems to cause freezing or crashing in Instagram, only taking video with my rear camera.
I am running on Jelly Bean 4.1.2. I am not rooted, and the phone is completely stock as of right now.
If anyone has any information, or any idea as to what may be causing this problem; any advice would be much appreciated.

Here is a link to an Instagram apk. I would try it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2332178
Just delete the instagram app you have installed...download the instagram apk. from the link and install with a file manager..( es xplorer/astro )..to just list a couple...any file manager/browser will work. No need to be rooted..so don't worry about that.
That being said..I do not use Instagram..So this is just a guess on my part...Read through the whole thread..( I just skimmed )..Could be other users having this issue as well and might have a fix..But from what I saw..it looked to be working.
Thanks for the reply! I tried the apk you linked (v4.1.0). Unfortunately, I still have the same problem. However, I did discover that it isn't freezing and crashing immediately when pressing the record button anymore, but instead when I finish recording a video.
If you are using the 4G Epic Touch, could you please install Instagram and attempt to record video to see if you have the same problem? I'm not sure as to whether this might be a problem with my phone or with the Instagram app.
Thanks again for your reply.
EDIT: I noticed that the phone's buttons remained responsive for a short time after Instagram froze. I was able to hit the home button after it locked up following the recording of a video. After making it to the home screen, I was able to go back into Instagram only to find a still frame of the video I just took, and black bars in place of the Instagram UI. Android soon reported that Instagram wasn't responding and allowed me to force close it via the prompt.
I don't know if this information is relevant or helpful to anyone, but I thought I'd post it anyway.
@Auze
ill try it later..as of now im downloading 4.3 gapps for a new rom on my gtab 10.1...
But to me it sounds like an app problem...
Thanks, if you don't get around to it, it's no big deal. I appreciate your help. I agree that it sounds like an app problem, although I am curious if it happens to all 4G Epic Touches.
For anyone that has this problem, I worked around it by filming a video with the stock Camera app, and then going into Instagram and uploading that video from the Gallery. It will go right into the Instagram video editor, and you can proceed as normal.
Hi there,
I am having a problem when using the Instagram camera (not the Instagram mode in Samsung camera).
If i go to take a picture for a story in Instagram (tried with alpha, beta and stable version), the picture moves out and it get all moved and fuzzy, not clear. It started since few software updated ago (Samsung update, not the app).
Has anybody notice this too? Not sure if a m being clear ahaha, but when you press to take a pic using the Instagram camera for a story, before it takes the pic there is a very short movement that makes the picture to be moved.
Thanks for your help!
Regards.
I have the same problem, and i dont know how to fix it.
Sama problem ?*
No problem on my end. all works fine, I'm on stock AT&T with everything up to date.
Same problem at my end as well. Had checked the phone at the store and everything was working. Only since that damn last update, its all screwed up. Camera quality is totally messed up
