Google camera lens blur? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I just updated to Kitkat and installed the Google Camera from the Play Store. Loaded it up to try Lens Blur and noticed it doesn't do anything. It takes the picture and processes fine but then the button to change the focus is missing. Just share, edit and delete. Has anyone else had this problem?

The option to edit the blur effect is in the Google Photos app

Thanks for the reply. Weirdly that option doesn't seem to be there. I can't figure it out. Works fine in the nexus tablet. It looks like it stops processing around a third of the way through and then goes to the photos app.

[Q] Photo Sphere..I don't get it!

Can someone please explain exactly what I'm supposed to do with the Photo Sphere images from the 4.2 camera app?
I've shot a bunch of them but they just look like standard panorama images!
How do I view them on the PC and get them to pan etc?
Sorry for yet another stupid question..
When you view them on your phone you should have a circular icon at the bottom of the screen - press this and it should go 3D (like streetview)
Thanks. When I press that button in the new Gallery app, nothing happens at all!
Upload those pics to Google+ there you can able view photo sphere images in PC

I have had the same question, so photo sphere means to be able to view pics as 3D?

is there no way to just see them locally without uploading them somewhere?

I think your gallery app is not working properly... try to change the GMS core. Apk
Check this YouTube link to see the photosphere view

Not sure what the gms core app is!
All i did was to flash the 4.2 camera app and the new gallery app came with it!
Should I have flashed something else?
Sounds like the package you flashed wasn't complete

[Q] Stock Gallery Quality issues?

Hiya all, just got my brand new Note 2 today, and I went to go read some pictures that contain a lot of text in them. When I zoom in, the text quality is immediately hindered, as though if it were a thumbnail and I zoomed in on it. I downloaded Quickpic fron the market and opened the same images, but they are perfectly fine. What gives? Ill upload screen shots in a second.

Forgot to mention that I am unrooted. Also I normally use quickpic, except that recently its been having issues selecting itself as the default app. Across 3 seperate devices, on 3 different versions of android, the apps permissions never stick. So id rather just use stock.
As you can see from the pictures attached, the stock gallery app has issues. Its the same image, which was an original screenshot from a computer. I took a screenshot on my note both in full frame and zoomed in. Is there a fix? Never noticed this issue until I was forced to go back to stock gallery.

They are the same for me. I run both apps. No distortion in stock gallery app.

Are you rooted? I notice that on XDA premium when I click images that it produces the same effect, but when I view the same thread in the browser it looks fine. I wonder if its and issue with not being able to load certain sizes of images? Like it can only dedicate so much memory to any picture at any given time? I dont know.

Gallery app doesn't work

Can someone test Gallery app on their device? It doesn't seem to work, and freezes my tablet. I have no issues with my tablet otherwise. I know I had trouble with the built in Gallery app on other tablets, and resorted to using a third party app, so I suspect this is an Android thing and doesn't mean anything is wrong with my tablet. But I would feel better if someone else could confirm the same (mis)behavior.
Thanks!

No problems with my Gallery app. But I may not have the same type and size of pictures you have on yours. I do have both photos and videos.
Works fine for me as well. Do you have a gazillion photos in Dropbox or someplace like that which it might be trying to synchronize?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk HD
No, I have only a few photos. I don't know why it won't work. Everything else seems to be fine.
Edit: I just tried it again, and now it's working just fine. I think you are right, it was having trouble synchronizing. Even though there aren't many pictures... must be enough to crash it while synching.
Thanks for checking it out!

Having same issue seems real clunky. I've done factory reset hoping it might help but still the same.
Other then that loving the Note 8

Ok! I thought I was alone! My tablet just started doing the same thing this morning. It is just the gallery. The rest of the tablet works great! Does anyone have any ideas of what to do to fix this?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using xda app-developers app
My issue went away without doing anything... But I installed Quickpic in the meantime since Ive had Gallery issues on other Android devices and found that Quickpic works better.
Sent from my GT-N5110 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for giving me hope! I will see how it works in a few days. How long did it take before the gallery begin to work normally?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for tip installed quickpic and issue is gone.
Really fast. Either same day or next, I can't remember. Fast enough that maybe my issue was related to synching with Picasa. But on my other Android the Gallery app was always too slow, which is why I ended up installing and using an alternative app. Try a third party app don't wait for Gallery to fix itself. There are better alternative available on the Play store. My choice is called Quickpic.

No you'll have duplicates. I have CM 10.1 and I deleted the CM gallery.
I just flashed this and now neither of my cameras or gallery's will connect. Is there a way to uninstall it?

Yea... I tried it on TW and now it says can't connect to camera.. I backed up before so no biggy.

from what ive searched and found around the xda site is, you need to tap the screen to focus every time before you take a picture or you will get camera lock ups and can not connect to camera. if you have gotten that message, just reboot your phone and remember to tap the screen before every picture taken.
The back camera works fine. I have to do the whole tapping the screen to focus before taking the picture thing, but thats not much of a problem. But if I take a picture with the front facing camera, it reboots my phone and obviously does not save the picture. Anyone know a way to solve this?
(I'm running 4.2.2 Illusion ROM for SGS3)
Install omega rom. Indie has modded them and photo sphere is working without any problems. You dont even neet to tap to focus before each photo. When you install omega be sure to select the 4.3 camera option in aroma installer

Lost ability to edit photos

Not sure if it's something I disabled or froze with android tuner (nothing that I can find that would have to do with photos or camera) but I cannot find the edit function in any menu from gallery or the camera app.
Can anyone tell me where it is or what it's called to see if I have it disabled by accident?
Thanks
Google photos needs to be installed. Did same thing lol

That's correct, more technically google plus needs to be installed. Hopefully google week separate the two apps soon as the rumors have suggested
Thanks that fixed it! I just re enabled it and its working again.
