any fix or other great gallery like samsung that is free without ad?
I think you are describing the fact that you cannot scroll past the photos that were just taken when viewing photos from the shortcut at the bottom-right corner of the display whilst in the Google Camera app.
This restriction only occurs when you are navigating into the camera app from the lock screen. This is done for security reasons so that some random stranger/theft who stole a phone whom cannot unlock said phone cannot view all of the pictures on that device.
There are two ways to view all of your pictures:
1. Unlock your phone and then enter the Google Camera app. Then click the photos shortcut at the bottom-right corner of the display.
2. Unlock your phone and then open the Google Photos app.

I got this device a week ago and loving it but has anyone else encountered this problem? I just noticed it and its rather annoying. The pic i was trying to use was taken with the camera and pic was not blurry when viewed in albums. I've also taking pic in lowest resolution but still came out blurry on caller id. Help anyone?
yes, I have this problem too, would love to see a solution ... ?
did you sync with activesync? I have a feeling activesync reencodes the jpeg.
So this is what happens - and this happens every time I put a new ROM or change phones
1. I always synch with Activesync, so the pictures are kept in my Outlook.
2. When I sync the pictures are blurry. If I put a new picture in Outlook, it still comes blurry on my phone.
3. If I put a new picture on my phone and then sync, then - all is fine - pictures are sharp and crisp and they stay like that until I put a new ROM and have to sync from scratch
There is something fishy in the way outlook stores these pictures may be.
does anyone have a fix for this???
That happened to me with the stock rom but when I switched to one with Manila 2.5, they're more clearer because it doesn't use the flipping notebook layout of the older style.
I would rather not flash a new rom to this phone... Is there a cab file out there that can fix this?
I had this problem on my Diamond
What you need to do is go to the people screen in touchflo and add the contact pictures from there, and it saves them as high res and will then sync them as normal
If you add your contact pictures from the outlook contacts program or from Outlook on your PC, then they are saved at a lower res
So I save the pictures to the memory card and then in the People tab, add the picture from there?
Blurry Fav Pics
Well as long as you add the pic to the contact from the People area of the touchFlo, you will be able to pic a section of the pic, (crop it), which then keeps it high res... I had the same problem too... I dont know if you have t-mobile, but it is kind of the same concept as the myfaves icons...
Yes, I think I read somewhere that if you save your contact pictures to msd card, it'll be higher res.
Here it is:
# Hi Res Contact Photos
Assign contact photos on your SD card directly to specific contacts for hi-res thumbnails. If you assign contact photos in Outlook and then sync, the contact photos on your phone will be low-res.
While we're talling about high-res pictures, here's another tip:
# Improve Photo Thumbnail Resolution in Photo Tab
Modify or tweak a photo (such as adjusting brightness) using a image editor directly on your HD (eg: Resco Photo Viewer) and save and overwrite the original. This makes the photo thumbnails on your Photo Touchflo 3D tab hi-res instead of low-res.
I have a t-mobile branded version of the tp2 and thanks for your responses. One more thing to add, when scrolling thru contacts in touch flo is it normal for pics to be blurry and take a few seconds to sharpen out?

It does not matter where the images are actually saved initially, it's just important to add them from TouchFlo and not from outlook/contacts
I don't sync with ActiveSync, but use Funambol instead - created a free account and used clients for Outlook and PPC.
Now I can sync from every location to internet and back - works great! (Also you can sync with many PCs while Activesync cannot even handle two PCs)
I am a newbie to this forum, how can I add the contact pics via touchflo. The pics are all blurry in my contact. They look sharp in album view

Yeah, I've been doing that and the pictures are a little bit blurry also and I thought that's what people are talking about. It must be because the People tab zooms on the picture a little.

I don't have that many contacts pictures... BUT when I scroll through pictures in Album, I have a similar effect. The next picture appear slightly blurry at first and then sharpens out in about 1 sec.
Think it's a Windows thing... experienced the same thing in Vista sometimes as well if I scroll BACK and the file size is big (scrolling forward give a sharp picture immediately).

Use the slider from the home screen to go to the People tab. This is really the "favourites", and will be blank unless you have already input some of your contacts.
Either add the contact, or go to the one you want to change, then press menu at the bottom, and a list comes up and "change picture is the bottom one.
Select your picture, move the highlighted box or zoom in/out to get the crop you want, then then save.
NOTE: if you go into the contacts, or into "all people" and change the picture, then it will be blurry. This must be done from the People tab from the home screen

5 BEST ANDROID APPS TO HIDE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS
1. Hide Pictures Keep Safe Vault - is one of the best apps to lock away your personal pictures and videos with ease. The app makes it effortless to simply store away your videos and photos in a safe vault. The separate gallery is kept hidden from the regular ones. I have used the basic version of the app for a while and it worked perfectly.
2. Gallery Lock (Hide pictures) - is one of the most popular apps around for Android. Almost every friend of mine recommends this free app for daily usage. I was pleasantly suspired to see the robust feature list of this app. Gallery Lock comes with almost every feature you would want from an app that hides photos and videos for you.
3. Hide Something - Photo, Video - With Hide-Something, your public gallery remains available to your friends, family, and coworkers. And your hidden images are only for who can unlock. With Hide-Something, you can customize your gallery when you want to show different photos to different people. With Hide-Something, you can share your photos and videos easily, even hand over your cell phone to others and no worry about your privacy.
4. Gallery Vault - Hide Video&Photo - comes with a simple and understandable interface and a good design. You simply need to move the images to the GalleryVault and they will be kept safe behind a lock code. The app also has the option of making the launch icon hidden; virtually making it completely concealed from your device.
5. Hide Pictures & Videos - FotoX - allows you to store your private pictures and photos in a secret gallery. If you want, you can take a picture directly from the app itself and it will be stored instantly. It is a great way to avoid the extra work of manually selecting pictures and hiding them in a secret vault.
When I go to preview photos after taking a few pictures, (by clicking the gallery circle at the bottom right in the camera) I can only see the LAST picture taken and do not have the ability to swipe to any others. I never had a phone that worked like this and its kinda annoying to have to leave the camera app, then go open the gallery and find latest photos just to preview them, possibly delete them, then have to go BACK into the camera app to retake and repeat jumping between apps..
Is there a setting I have on that's causing this?
This function (or lack of) really just doesn't make any sense.
You need to go reset the default app that's associated. For example, I previously had clicked that preview picture and opened with (and set to default) Google photos, which only shows one picture and does not swipe. I went into google photos and cleared defaults, then went back into the camera app and clicked the preview picture. I then selected gallery and it allows me to swipe through all my pictures.

worked!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whenever I take a new picture with the Camera, it shows on the bottom right hand corner immediately. However, when I then click on the photo, it brings me to the photo app and the new picture does not show. If I switch in photos to device folders, the new pictures show. I've tried setting the camera to store the pictures on both internal and external storage with no luck. If immediately after I take the picture, I open up QuickPic the new picture is there. I am running the latest viper rom, with latest firmware etc.
Anyone else experience this or have some thoughts?

yes and i believe the camera app is going to need an update to fix this. It has something to do with a recent update to google photos.
So with portrait mode on the Pixel 2 it saves 2 images for every pic taken in portrait mode. Is there a way to stop that and only have it save the bokeh picture. I don't need the other picture taking up space.
while viewing the picture in the photos app. you'll see 2 mini thumbnails at the bottom center of the picture. one is your orig, one has the blurred background.
swipe the thumbnails to the right to view the original picture, and then press the 3 vertical dots at the top right > delete. you'll be prompted to delete the current photo or both photos. this option only deletes the picture(s) from your device and leaves it on the cloud.
if you want to delete it from the cloud and from the device then select the trash can icon on the bottom right, and it will ask you if you want to delete the current photo or both.
as for stopping it completely, i dont think that is an option, not that i have seen anyway
The third button from the right let's to save pick which photo to save or show as the main photo in the gallery.
I think OP was looking for a way to not have to manually delete every non portrait version.
As someone who takes a **** ton (100+ average) of portrait photos of dogs at my work each day, I see why OP is asking.
There's no such thing as photos taking up space on pixels... that's sort of the point
Portrait photos actually take up less space than regular ones. They seem to average about 2 MB for blurred and 2 MB for unblurred. So that's 4 MB total. Regular photos are ranging 4-7 MBs for me.
i am facing this weird issue where only the normal pic is getting saved not the one with the bokeh effect. i tried many versions of g cam but no result.. any solution so that i can save the potrait pic?
If you have Tasker or are willing to purchase it, you can do a shell command to automate this for you. This is exactly what I have done.
Every time I open my file manager app, a shell command will find the regular image and delete it.
