Camera problems? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Like the title says I'm having an issue when I take a picture the camera will show the picture in the recent window but when I click on it it takes me 2 pictures I have taken earlier. I'm in a spot where I do not have good data network connection. The image will eventually show up in instant uploads. And after a while it shows up in the gallery. I have taken a few pictures right after I put jelly bean on my phone and it didn't do that. And I have also flashed two different versions of jb and having the issue with both now. Is this a bug or is it because it wants to upload instantly first and then show in the gallery? Sorry for the long question.

Froyo: Fullscreen photos in gallery are blurry

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

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.

Gallery Layout in ICS - What Am I Missing?

Is there any rhyme or reason to how the folders in the Gallery app are ordered in ICS? I swear, they just appear to be in a COMPLETELY RANDOM order, and it is maddening. It's not alphabetical, it's not by date - what is going on? Has anyone figured out a way to bring some order to this mess? It's extremely frustrating.

I honestly just noticed that this morning while looking for a pic I just snapped. There isn't anything in settings I can see to change it either. Anyone?

Strange, since I saw this thread I went a looked too, I have the same issue. Very strange.
mine is sorted by album. You can change how its sorted by clicking the top left sort option.

The problem I'm referring to is that when it is sorted by album, the albums themselves are not actually sorted (e.g., they're not listed alphabetically). When you have a large number of albums, this makes it very difficult to find the one you're looking for. I didn't have this problem in the stock gallery app in Gingerbread or in Honeycomb.
Only workaround is to use 3rd party app, QuickPic. Works wonders for me. I just can't use the stock gallery.

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.

Multiple copies of pictures made in QuickPic and stock Gallery

Guys,
I have QuickPic installed on my S3 along with the stock Gallery app.
But whenever I take any picture from camera I see 3 copies of the same picture in both the galleries.
This is really frustrating as I have to manually delete the other 2 pics, another disadvantage is that all the 3 pics are uploaded into the cloud as well, hitting the battery and data usage.
Is anyone facing the same issue ?
Prady
Had this issue before on previous phones,...and yes it's very annoying,..on my captivate one time I flashed a certain rom I was getting 8 and 9 copies of the same picture,..went to a different rom and I've never had the problem again, it was only on my captivate a also, never had it happen on the S2 or S3
