Not having an issue with the gallery. However, when I use the large power amp widget, the bottom of the widget sits under the rosie. Is there a way to resize?

I am not having a problem viewing pictures in the gallery either. The problem here is when I take a picture and I try to apply an effect to it. I dont know if you know what im talking about. Select a picture and tap on the picture. A little magic stick should appear at the bottom and should give you the option to add effect to the pic. As soon as you try to add the effect the gallery force closes. "The Application gallery has stopped unexpectedly"
Can anyone check their phone and see if you are having the same problem.
Thanks a lot!
anybody?
.
Yes, dude. As stated before, he is aware.

I have noticed the stock TW MMS settings display any photo as a "Media" file with a play, pause, rewind, forward buttons and time bar. Also the photo is shrunken, not even full screen! I think this is just senseless because you can't adjust the photo, zoom or anything without first saving it again to your phone and opening it is seperately with Gallery. Thats a lot of work to see a picture of something cool someone just sent you!
Is there a way to change how photo messages are displayed? Any alternative apps I can use? I am finding this to be pretty annoying.
thanks in advance!

The MMS "video" display of pictures is a bug - looks like a new OTA is starting to roll out that fixes it - Sprint getting the love first:
http://www.androidcentral.com/sprint-rolling-out-another-update-samsung-galaxy-s3
I also noticed the pictures are small...but I figure it's small to begin with because of MMS restrictions...and with the high resolution of our screen it looks even smaller. It would be nice to at least be able to zoom in though.

If you are rooted you should try to put the AOSP MMS.apk on the phone, i find it alot better than the samsung stock app. Its alot more pleasant to look at also, it looks like your GTalk interface.
If not, you can always go with Handcent or GoSMS to replace your native app. Both are great alternatives and provide endless options for customization, including popups and reminders.
Thanks for the replies guys, glad to know it is a bug!
I will have to check out the AOSP app! Is it included in CM9? if so I am switching up stat!
Not a very big fan of the stock MMS .apk's for Samsung. Switched over to Handcent and it just seems to handle everything a bit better. The customization is top notch as well.

+1 - Another good alternative is GO SMS Pro.

I've brought this up before. No one was able to give a good answer except that's just how android is.
If someone sends an MMS with text or more than 1 picture it will display as a slideshow/video. It did this on my GS2, and same thing on the GS3. I've tried every SMS/MMS application out there (handcent, go, whichever) and flashed many of ROMs, as well as all the mms.apks I could find, and it leaves me with the same result.
From what you described it is the same issue and it sucks that I have yet to find a work around
I pulled the mms apk from Sprint's most recent ota and put it on my vzw gs3 and it seems to be fixed

This is a problem with Android, I experienced it with my Moto Atrix, but with 2.3 (Gingerbread) I could at least tap and hold on the picture then select view to see it full size and to be able to resize it. Do we know if the Sprint OTA at least lets people do this?
Edit: I downloaded GO SMS and you're able to tap on the picture and zoom in or out of it. I'm pretty happy with it and it's ICS theme.
When viewing my photos in "album" view, I try scrolling down to see more albums but in about half a second the screen scrolls back up to the top.. I've tried deleting cache/data but nothing helps. Any ideas?

Since nobody seems to know how to fix this I'll post the solution I found:
When opening the gallery app, it looks like AllShare is scanning for media around the phone, I discovered this when looking at my battery stats and seeing a lot of activity from the allshare service, and I knew it was coming from the network since when setting the view option to "phone content only" everything was fine. After stopping the app the auto-scroll goes away for a while but comes back later.
My solution was to freeze the allshare service using TB (needs root), now the gallery app works perfectly and is much faster! Hope I helped someone with a similar problem
Found another solution. You dont need to freeze via TB. Just remove autorization for the Note 2 within the allshare app. For me it works. Gallery is scrolling now like charm..

I only noticed it doing it on mine when dropbox was syncing alot of photos, each time the gallery detected a change it would scroll to the top.
Auto-scrolling to the top
Thanks Gabster.
I was pulling my hair out! My Samsung galaxy s3 was autoscrolling to the top whenever I looked at anything that required scrolling down such as the internet, mail, gallary etc. After half a second it zooms back up to the top of the page which is highly annoying when your trying to read stuff. Disabling the allshare apps (there was three on mt s3) worked and I no longer get the annoying auto scroll!!!! Thank you!!!! Instructions for any S3 users:
1. Click on your settings app
2. Click on 'Application's Manager'
3. Scroll right so you can see 'all' your apps
4. Click on all of your 'Allshare' apps one by one and hit force stop & disable
5. Enjoy no more auto-scrolling to the top

Little late but might be tap to top.

Mine does it all the time when I'm scrolling one handed through contacts and when I'm about to click someone it will go to the top.
Hi all.
I have some questions regarding the new camera app in 4.2.
Why is there a difference between the camera I open from the lock screen widget and the actual camera out of the menu? For example when I take a picture with the widget camera, swipe to the left so have a look at the picture, I can only "delete" it. There are not the regular options like "share" or anything. I first have to go back, unlock, open gallery, find picture and then "share". Why is this??
Also, when I take a picture and afterwards have a look at it in the gallery, it actually captured more of the thing I wanted to take a picture of (I think about 10% at top, bottom, left, right). Has anybody else this issue?
And of course, the very frustrating lag when turning the device from landscape into portrait or vice versa, but like I read in other topics this is everybody's issue.
Thanks all!

That is for security reasons. Otherwise anybody who gets a hold of your phone could share your pictures anywhere he wants. If you disable your unlocking option (or set it to "move finger") you'll get the full menu including the icons for sharing.

This was most likely the reason.
But, correct me if I'm wrong, the camera can only be accessed via the 'Slide' screen lock, which isn't secure at all.

Yeah you're wrong. There is a huge camera icon sitting on the first page of the menu. I don't think anyone will miss that.

The camera actually take more than what we view on screen. That's annoying when I take a close up picture, it become farther view than what we seen on screen

you can also acces the camera using a lock pin. i didn't try with other security means (pattern, faceunlck, etc..) but i guess it's the same thing. personally, i like this feature a lot.
Is anyone else having trouble taking screenshots? Whenever I do it successfully shows that the screenshot is taken and I can view it in my gallery, but whenever I try to share it, it's just a black image. Does this have to do with the screen settings or something? Also if I take a screenshot and try to open it with an app such as Pixlr, it shows the image but it is like distorted with a grid array of black squares. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I was using the default app with the phone. I also tried using Pixlr and it does the same thing. Like when I try to see the image in my gallery at first it is black on the preview, then when I actually press it to open it it shows the image. When I back out, it is back black again. The screen like flickers as well on certain images, I am assuming because of the adaptive display? I tried taking a few more screenshots last night and it seemed to work, and then a few hours later it went back to showing black images.

No, what I mean is when you click the "share icon", which app do you use to share the images? For example, do you share using Gmail, Pushbullet, Hangouts, etc.? Also have you tried turning off Adaptive Display? That shouldn't be the issue but you never know.

Ah, I was using Kik or directly through text messaging. Like even in my gallery the screenshots show up as black, unless I click on the image than it loads. I have the screen on Basic right now and its still doing it. Its weird as I tried doing a few last night and it began to work normally, and now its doing the black image thing again.

I have the same exact problem with the Verizon version. Screenshots turn very dark and get diagonal lines. If I use Photos to view them, they're just black with diagonal lines. Then when I text these images, the recipients get black images too. I've factory reset the phone, and that fixed it... until I started downloading my apps and Samsung updates. I'm not sure which app creates this issue, but it'd be tough to hunt down the culprit one by one. (I have over 350 apps).
To take a screenshot it's the volume up button and the start key. May it helps you some.

what is the "start key"?
I also faced similar problem like u few months ago, when I took screenshot some times it show in gallery and sometimes a black image with no thumbnail error come, dis was because of low memory, so try to free up some internal and SD memory, use clean master to clear to cache memory, or clean files manually.

I'm sure you're being sarcastic. To most, it's commonly referred to as the 'Home' button. On later Touchwiz devices, you can just swipe your palm horizontally across the screen to capture a screenshot.
I dont know what device you are using, but on the t mobile s6 edge, volume up and the home button do NOT take a screenshot

LOCK button and home button, not volume button.
Press them both at the exact same time and hold them until you see the snapshot.

It was Vol Up + Power button on other devices like Nexus, pure Android. And CM roms.
But Samsung has always been Power Button + Home Button.
