Is there a set resolution or size the picture has to be so it can be clear in the box? Thanks!
i have the same question cause my pictures are distorted
My pictures are currently set to 2MP, there is no distortion in the pic whatsoever. The only problem is that it takes a while for the pictures to load up, i'm not sure if its because they are located on the storage card or because of the large resolution of the picture. Whats the resolution of the pictures you use???
I'm pretty sure that we can assume phonebook pics are saved onto the phone itself, not storage card... because if you take your storage card out, the pictures should still work.... plus that's built into the whole outlook/contacts part of the phone.
Whenever I'm cropping pictures I usually make them somewhere in the range of 150x150 - 200x200 or somewhere along those lines. It just depends... I haven't really sat there and thought about it too hard.
actually i do have the same problem. the pictures are shown very small and blurry this is even though the original pictures are pretty large and sizable...
is there any problem to customize the incoming call window anyway
my resolutions are SUPER high like 1600x1200 and its still blurry
yeh same here my pictures are 2mb in size from an 8 megapix camera soo i dont why its still blurry i tried puttin it in the phone insteead of the storage card but its still blurry
make the photos .png, I use that hand have very nice pictures
yeh no luck with the .png either
anyone care to post am image of a distorted image...
what do youll use to get a screen shot sorry iam new at this???
I actually think your images may be too large, you are using 2mp images with a very high res and then squeezing them down to a very small part of a 240x320 screen, try resizing your pictures down to say 200x200 or somthing like 120x160, this will also make them much smaller and save mem, and load much faster ...
all my contact pictures, for the dialer are like 240x240 and they all look fine ...
Using a 2mp image on a 240x320 screen is just going to wast your memory anyway ....

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it doesn't really eat the memory, only uses .1mb to access but the main problem is that it takes a while to load up the pics, and they only load one at a time. will try the resize
As for taking a pic of the screen

True it does not waste memory, unless you are not storing the pics on a storage card, then it just eats storage memory for the large pic, but storing pics that big in main mem, would just be silly anyay ...
yeh i tried resizing it still blurr....
"update"
ok finally got it after I installed pocketcm the pictures cleared up thanks guys for ur help
its not really a matter of picture size, what i found is that is actually a problem with the orientation of the picture.
when the phone is in normal view, HTC home screen crops the picture, very baddly. the picture gets a square ratio, but when HTC home screen is in the landscape orientation, the same blurry pictures now look perfect. what i've done is to change all my pictures to have a square ratio or atleast a vertical 4:3 ratio
my 2 cents
how does pocketcm work? helps a lot?
The Answer
The Answer to the original question is to use the 'Change Picture' from the Menu Button on TouchFlo 3D. For some reason, chaning the picture in either Pocket Outlook or Desktop Outlook distorts the picture and doesn't keep the resolution. I hope that this can solve the thread.
Edit - Sorry if I sound smug but this post was first on my google search but I didn't find the answer for another 2 hours!!! I reckoned this would stop others from having to hunt.
Is there any way to resize a picture before emailing it? I just tried to send myself a picture and it took forever to send because it was 2mbs, i used to have an iphone so it would automatically shrink the pictures before emailing them, this one allows full size pictures which is a good thing but id like the option to send a not full size picture if possible
Please read the sticky:
Image Shrink Lite #FTW
The tips&tricks thread recommends Image Shrink Lite. I've only used it once but it worked well - it generated the reduced image and then opened a new Gmail with it attached (you can choose which app you want to send with when you shrink the picture).
^ right on. Also, if you open the app you can choose the default shrink size and it skips that step of the process too.
wow thats awesome, thanks guys
I would love to find out what could cause the following:
I bought my SGS when I was on holiday in the UK, and I used it to take a few dozen photos.
I used the highest resolution setting which gives a file size of approx 1.5MB for each jpg.
After backing them up on the 'external SD card' , I copied them to my wife's laptop, where she noticed that some of them were really low resolution.
So I checked the file sizes on my Galaxy S, and I was amazed to find that about half of the files were not the expected size.
I selected the option to list them by order of size - the first 20 or so files went from 17KB, 20KB, 35KB, 100KB, 340KB etc... then the remaining 30 or 40 files were all the correct file size, i.e. 1.4MB to 1.5MB.
None of the photos had anything missing regarding the subject, but they were just lower resolution, as though they had been somehow resampled to a smaller number of pixels.
If anyone has any idea as to how they could get corrupted like this, I would love to know.
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone else had this problem. I have the MyTouch 4g and my boyfriend has an iPhone. When he sends me pictures through text and I save them they save really small in the downloads folder. Is there any way to change this? Sometimes they will save normal size. Other times they won't. I would really appreciate the help. Thanks
If you go into the stock note 4 gallery and select a picture, from the toolbar at the top you can edit the image directly which is great. This is by far the easiest way to edit an image but for some reason you can only save the image as either 5mp or 8mp. Furthermore, the saved image has a vastly reduced file size so I'm wondering if more sacrifices have been made when compressing the image? Despite this the images look very good on close inspection - does anyone know if there are better alternatives for adjusting images, or should I keep on using this one?
