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

I haven't been able to send a picture message at all.
I've tried on my OMGB install with no success using stock messenger and handcent
I also tried on Stock+ with no avail.
On both roms i am running the ext4 mod with latest incredikernl/tiny.
I am using Quickpic instead of the stock galleries, could that be the issue?

Try deleting the telephony.db file located in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases and then reboot.

no luck there. i even switched to inc-deck, a cm7 rom wthout it working.
Update:
So it seems that its my gf's phone that isn't receiving my picture messages. I sent one to my mom's phone who has a stock incredible 2.3.4 and her phone received it.
My mom sent one to my gf earlier and she received it fine.
My guess now is, is my phone not converting mms appropriately? im on inc-deck 1.3
Did you compare your settings with your mom to see if that matches up? Maybe she has the MegaPixel set at a lower resolution i.e. do you have yours set to 8mp whereas your mom has it set to 5mp? It very well could be the size of the photo itself due to the resolution.
Edit: also, if you have a few other friends with different phones successfully receive your pictures then that helps you figure out what settings you need to configure.

I've tried to send various pictures whether from my camera or just a photo i had on my phone. I changed my camera settings to take pictures with smaller file size. I even used the spoofing option for mms that cm7 has with no avail.
As of now I'm just declaring this an issue of my gf's pos phone hating me.

In that case, as long as you can receive pics from your girl then you are doing what any smart person in a relationship is doing....sacrifice lol
We suffered from the pixel contacts pics synced from Gmail for a really long time, and Google staff has promised the solution was undergoing. How is that with Jelly Bean? Hope the HD pics could match the resolution of the screen on Galaxy Nexus this time.

Don't think so, as when I flashed Jellybean they were all pixelated. Although when I redo the contact pictures with the originals they end up as the native screen res, so they look much better than ICS, which looked a tad fuzzy even after setting them up fresh
Also it could have pulled the contacts automatically from the SIM card, as I don't usually use the gmail restore feature. I just know all my contacts were there after booting the first time.
Much improved.

yes, as been solved, now the max resolution is 720x720, in Ics was 256x256
100% better. I told haxsync to resync all pics again and they came in high res.

Did you expect JB to magically restore information from contact pictures that were previously uploaded and re-sized? I would expect the results that you saw.

Exactly.
I actually updated some contacts to high res, and then wiped my phone for other reasons and put JB back on, and the high res pics were saved. Looks like the problem is finally solved.

Do you mean that we should update the present pics in Gmail to HD, then wipe the phone and sync them back?
I've resynced my pix.. but no luck :[

Not sure if that will work or not, but that's not what I did. Rather, I updated my contact pics to high res ones in my people app on my phone in JB. When I later did a full wipe on my phone and put JB back on, my phone pulled the high res photos from Google instead of crappy grainy ones like it used to do.

My question is ... I use haxsync to do all this but those photos are never saved in my gmail (gmail still uses old photos from my original desire ). How to do it ? I have the grainy photos because of the HTC sense Facebook sync but cant do it anymore ...

I Just uploaded a new contact photo via Gmail/Contacts, let it sync to the phone and the resolution is just as crap as previous before JB ?
still having issues myself.
however i did see that the 720x720 pics were supported but i cannot get them to work for some reason.
on my PC, i got a nice High Res pic of my wife, got it all cropped to my liking, and let it syn over to the phone and it is still crappy resolution.
i have "HD contacts" from the market and this seems to work pretty good, but it takes forever to set everything up on the phone.
So when I get jb on here and I resync my contacts with haxsync or Facebook, the images shouldn't be blurry anymore? Or is this only with images manually saved to contacts?

Maybe the gmail/contacts web upload hasn't be updated and still resizes the image.

That was my experience...if I set the contact pictures from JB Contacts, it worked fine. If I set the contact pictures from Gmail Contacts over the web, they were resized/"pixilated".
To all folks, if you're using JB on your phone, remember it's still a preview...don't panic if not all parts of the experience are perfect yet!

yeap, hope the official Jelly Bean update could bring the true HD contacts pics together with Gmail team in July. Wait and see.
I am having an issue
Hey Guys,
I flashed JB on my GNEX LTE and since then I have not been able to add my pictures to my contacts. Everytime I try to edit a contact picture and save it there is a small message that says the contact could not be saved. I checked all the setting as far as syncing google contacts and it's all enabled. Please help.

Did you allow Google to restore apps and settings after the wipe? I usually want to start fresh but it would be a shame if all the pics are lost in that case.
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.

Am I the only one that hates the built in Gallery App and how slow it is when you have a lot of pics.
This isnt a problem as I have QuickPic installed. However the Messaging (and Mail) add do NOT give you a list of image pickers when you attached (very anti Android HTC)
Can someone fix this? Or know a solution.
Thanks
Dan

I quite like the stock gallery, it's smooth for me and is a whole world smoother than the stock gallery on the S3 and S4. QuickPic is nice though

I have 37 albums with 50-100 pics in teach. Trust me it's slow, and every time I attach a pic it defaults to events install of albums.

Anything will be a bit slow if its got a possible 3700 photos, especially since it's always auto generating zoes on the fly. Not sure about the whole events thing, if I pick Albums it stays as albums, even if I add new photos. Sounds like you'd be better off just using QuickPic to be honest and you'll just have to work with the Gallery as it is. Maybe try a different messaging app and see if it lets you dictate what app to use when attaching photos.
Edit: I'm using GoSMS. Tried attaching a photo as SMS and it brought up a list of apps to choose from (gallery, dropbox etc)

Thanks but thats the issue really.
I am using a combination of Handcent and Stock - the reason I have to go to stock is sending MMS over Wifi (TMobile). Handcent doesnt support that.
So its just an annoyance but one I was hoping to resolve by just using Stock - but without it being able to attach from 3rd party Galleries it is a problem.
I am just frustrated that HTC didn't make their Messaging/Mail app support the normal Android methods of attaching files and providing a list of compatible apps.
Also of note - when you are in QuickPic and you Share a Image - the messaging App doesn't appear. Which again - bad HTC Bad!!!

Yeah that really is silly of them, forcing you to use their apps pretty much. Same as how they've made it so that only their official headset with volume controls actually work. All other 3 button headsets can only skip tracks
try uninstalling the default gallery

I haven't had issues other than pictures taking some time to load, meanwhile they appear blurry until loaded.
Did you try viewing with Quickpic ? I don't use the gallery from Oppo as it's slower.
Also, what's your OS version? If nothing works out then you may need to reformat completely and install latest stable version (1.2.6i as of this time).
I see the pictures from the stock CM11 gallery, but I've noticed something.
All these pictures I've taken were saved on my SD card, today I made some new photos and selected the Phone memory.
Untill now, there are fine and can see them, no problem.
Do you know, there are problems with some SD cards, that the Oppo doesn't support verry good?
