So a friend of mine took a picture with her HTC Hero and it saved it improperly. The problem is that I know the data is there as the thumbnail is generated differently on different programs and each program shows a little bit more or less of the photo. Is there any way to fix this? I attached the file.
Thank you,
~Tim

programs on the phone or PC?
Seems to me like its an issue with the files data as far as the resolution of the image is concerned. But I am not sure.

Hi Guys
I got 2 problems related to the Album.
1. My photos appear extremly blurry on the main screen (the part where you flick through them). It's not a huge deal, but I wouldnt mind some focus.
2. When I make my way to a video album the videos are only displayed as windows media icons. No text and no thumbnail video preview. As a result I have to guess which one of the 50 videos is the one I want to show a friend.
Please help me.
Unbelievable
I just can't believe absolutely no-one has a solution, or some advice at the least.
If I can't get help here, I am doomed.
I thought this forum was over-run by brainiacs.
Guess not.

Hey!
To be honest....it's not a solution I can offer you...because I think everybody has the same issue with the blurry pictures and no preview video, but I think I can explain why....The main reason I guess it's blurry, is because it will take too much time for the device to pre-load the images on the sceen ie...especially if you have many high resolution pictures, it takes forever to load for every picture...the same with the music...that can also takes some time to load when you slide to the music tab.....
for the video the same reason I guess..
Please anybody...correct me if i'm wrong....
BTW...If you see the amount of views for this topic, you'll see that a lot of people see your problem, but don't have a solution for it....so please newby...don't complain allright??? we all try to help each other......
I had the same problem very blurry photos. But I solved it on mine.
Copy the original photos onto your diamond into the internal storage. I put mine in my pictures for while I did this.
Then on the diamond go onto your people tab and on each of your favourite people click on the menu bottom (bottom left).
Select change picture.
Then select the photo from the location you copied them too earlier..
That's it.
Do that for each of your favourite people.
It seems outlook contacts get saved with much lower resolution photo's but if you add the photo's on the phone it's a much higher res.
Carl
BTW I deleted the folder I'd copied into internal storage once i'd completed this and the photo's all stayed so there's no need to have the copied photo's permanently on the phone

That's a good answer nice man! I knew the problem was also on the Favorites Contacts tab, where the photo's were blurry as well, but I didn't know you could also fix it on the Photo/Video Tab...!
Nice tip!
me confused
Capt_Carl, I think you are confusing "blurry pictures in Photo & Video Tab" (my problem) with "blurry contact pictures in the Favorite People Tab" (solved this a while ago).
Am I just misunderstanding Capt_Carl.
What do you think Pietje_1985?

Yes....to be honest...i'm confused as well.. because of the fact that I knew there was a problem with the Favorite People tab and the pictures, but for the Photo/Video tab, I still think you can't solve that problem....... I thought Capt_Carl had the answer, but I think not after I read your post MaD-CoW
Ne ways...I hope maybe somebody else is familiar with the problems and somebody has got a solution to it.....
Cheers
Bump
Has anyone solved the blurry photos in the photo & video tab?
I have the same problem. 700 views and still no luck. I'll wait.
I'll join in the wait as well.
Update?
Maybe an update to the new official ROM 2.03 could help?
With the 2.03 ROM the problem started for me. On 1.93 it was fine.
Make the pictures 240x320
Hello, i have a little problem, i couldn't find any thread with these contents..
but, here's the problem:
Whenever i take a normal photo, on any resolution.. it won't save the file after i took a picture and my HD won't respond for a minute, when i try to see the photo it isnt there..
Does anyone know what might have happened? it's pretty annoying
Much thanks, Cb
Sounds like it is having a problem finding the file it is supposed to save the images to. Have you added any new programs or changed any settings recently? Where are you storing the images, device or storage card? Check if you have set these to hidden or read only.

yes it does sound like your folder location may be missing use your file explorer and see if DCIM folder is in storage card inside DCIM should have a folder called 100MEDIA
Well, the folders are there since i selected to save it on the storage card.. and no i havent changed any settings to the camera, and it still does the same thing been trying to figure it out but it wont work at all
If you haven't changed any settings to the camera, have you changed any settings in any other programs or installed any new programs? What ROM are you using?
I'm using the stock rom, 1.14.404.3 (22273) NLD, last program i installed before it went to act strange was spore origins

At a guess I would say that spore origins played part in messing things up. First try telling the camera to save to the device and see what happens. If it is still messed up then you may have to hard reset. If it does work when you tell it to save to the device then take what you need off the storage card and re-format it, then that should fix your problem.
if you have installed "advanced config" utility please check under camera settings if you have "encode photos in portrait mode" option enabled
if yes, unable it.
this can make your phone to stuck or delay whenn you take a picture
good luck!

it worked! thank you very much, I was about to take it back to the store to ask but now there won't be any need anymore , it's the first time i had a problem with my HD so i'm happy i've been around XDA for a while now
Why is it some of my thumbnails look horrible like these and others are perfectly fine, and why can I only veiw 99 images in the Sense gallery view??
When I click to veiw full screen they display perfectly, just the thumbnails look horrible!
Cheers!
install the two hotfixes released by HTC. it will resolve the thumbnail issue and the storage issue.
What Hotfix's?
I've installed the Update for HTC HD2 – Digital Picture Enhancement to remove the pink, and I do not have a storage issue, the other Hotfix's are:
Update for HTC HD2 – SMS Function Update
Update for HTC HD2 SD Card Storage Capacity
ROM Upgrade for HTC HD2
Cheers!
The pics with horrible thumbnails are the ones taken pre-hotfix... if you look at them on a PC they dont look as good as they do on the HD2.
The storage hotfix updates the camera app to better compression and sorts a bug which lies about how many pics you have left to take. best to reboot before you install this.

the hotfixes wont fix the already taken photos. the thumbnails are corrupted as they are. but newly taken pics are ok.
I have this issue too. Not with the thumbnails, but the sense gallery only displays 99? And I've applied every update/patch.

Thanks for your input chaps but the pics look fine on my PC and on the HD2, it's just the thumbnails, and they were taken after the hotfix was installed!
None of the hotfix's address why you can only veiw 99 images in the Sense gallery either!

It's not abug. Just a software limitation to avoid manila slowing down the device too much.

Thats not right!!
It loads each image as needed not all at once, so makes no difference how many there are.
but it is how they have designed it, so like it or not its working "correctly"...

The images in manila photo tab should be and are cached for faster loading.
It is not done in realtime as you think.
Also,there will be some prerendering of images anticipating the next possible onces.
same method used in most softwares for anticipated rendering like in opera,gps softwares etc.

Maybe one or two images ahead but not all images, if you scroll through them fast enough you'll overtake the loading/precached images.
So there is no need for a limit on how many you can view because it doesnt load them all into memory at once which is the only reason it would slow the phone down.
so no fix ?
no reg tweek ?
So for a few days now I've been using the wireless storage function on my G2 to transfer pictures over to my computer. It's usually around 150-200 photos. I use I.E. to browse my wireless storage files, however, there is always one picture missing within the folder, but I can still see the picture on my phone. And I'm not talking about after I transfer my photos over to my computer, I'm talking about inside the network drive (\\192.168.0.XX). I'll attach a few pictures so you can better understand. I've tried to Google the problem, but I've had no success. . This is not a huge problem, it's just annoying when I need to have all of the pictures for sure and then I have to do a man hunt to find out which one is gone. Thanks, all help is much appreciated.
Is it really missing or just miscalculate?
Next time, try to transfer 10 images and see if one missing or not.

Nothing is being transferred. Like I said, it's in the G2 network drive where the photo is missing. Look in the photo I uploaded that's showing the 265 photos being selected, nothing was transferred prior to that screen-grab
EDIT - Also notice the network map in the first photo (\\192.168.0.10\g2\sdcard0\DCIM\100LGDSC)
Tried to copy photos from my Note 5 to Nexus 6P however, the date on the photos are off and sometimes unknown. I tried to transfer it wirelessly and through OTG cable but no luck.
What is the correct way to transfer photos without losing its date?
Thanks
Can you reproduce this by copying pictures to other devices or your computer to make sure it's a problem with your Nexus?

Hello Danny,
I tried to copy the photos to my computer then transfer it via cable to Nexus 6P\Internal storage\DCIM\Camera
however, once the pictures/videos are transferred they lose their created date.
do you have another way for me to try ?
Not sure.
As mentioned, are the time records correct when the pics are on your computer? Have you tried to transfer pics to another handset? What about a different folder for the pics because \DCIM\Camera is as you know the original folder for pics taken by the device's camera.
Trial and error might a solution.

Looks like the issue from the photos it self. It got corrupted somehow when i backed it up
Good to hear that you find at least half of the solution.
Maybe you just start messing around with the Google Photos app. Automatic backups are a fine thing to have.
And...please just use inline answer, quoting me everytime just blows the thread up.
