yea it is a bug which i think is only specific to the galaxy s4, not sure if it is a world wide thing or only on certain models, i have the i9505 and it is present on mine, very annoying because i actually really like using that filter.
have emailed instagram various times but they have no replied so its nice to see their customer service are as helpful as can be.
heres hoping for an update soon tho.

MMS landscape only?

Of all the rotation features why do they disable it in mms? Every picture I have forces me to view in landscape mode. Pictures originally taken in landscape mode come out fine and the portrait seem to be on the small size. Is there any regedit or "hack" to fix this?
Save the file(s) and view in the Photos and Videos tab?
Tis what I do.
That is absolutely obnoxious... plus the pictures come in small for as large as the screen is.

i don't quite know what you are referring to as obnoxious, I don't exactly see people bending over backward to help you, and as I said that is what I do.
Rotate Screen might work, I don't know I don't have any MMS's since I last hard reset.
Search the forums for MMS fix.
It'll fix the small picture size real well.

Tried all the fixes and they either remain the current size or smaller. I looked at our demo HD2's and all my buddy's HD2's and they are all the same. If the picture was originally taken in landscape mode it is considerable larger than one taken in portrait. Maybe I'm being just too picky I figured a MMS would come in full screen but that isn't anywhere near the case.

I appreciate the input... I mean having to save the picture to get it to rotate is the obnoxious part. Do all MMS pictures play as a slide show? What happened to the old days where someone sent you a picture and it just displayed no fancy slide show. I feel the slide show time indicator as well as the play and pause is what is causing the issues... it takes up like 1/4 of the screen if not more
I have this problem as well, and I don't think it's the same as what the others have posted about small mms sizes. I have tried enabling rotation for messages and albums app using BSB Tweaks, but it's a no go. Also, is anybody else having the same problem as me where an image mms file will play as a 10 second video clip when opening from messages?
EDIT: jvcjbl I think I am experiencing the same problem as you where it plays as a 10 second slide show. No clue how to fix this.

[Q] PhotoSphere issues - What am I doing wrong?

Hey all,
I've had my Nexus 4 for about 3 and a half weeks now, and I'm absolutely loving it. However, I seem to be experiencing an issue with PhotoSphere that I haven't seen reported yet.
When I take a PhotoSphere panorama, there is always a hole in the top part of the image which effectively leaves a black area along the top edge of the image (see attachments). I haven't seen this issue on anybody else's photos, so I am curious if I am doing something wrong or if there is a setting I missed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

lol because you have to take a pic up there too.
Are you holding the device portrait or landscape? I wasn't able to get a full photosphere (top and bottom) until I held the phone portrait.

[Q] Nexus 4 Photos Missing Data

My Nexus 4 seems a bit Hit & miss with its ability to take a good photo. The main problem appears to be missing data when the subject of the photo is moving. Attached an example. Is this a common and/or a known issue?

Thanks for the suggestion - but that's just another Instagram like app which I've already got a few of. It's the HDR option that looks to be the problem.

Nexus 4 Autofocus Problem

Hi guys,
I am hacing a problem with the autofocus on the default camera app on the nexus 4.
Before when I clicked a picture at the last moment it would make sure the camera is in focus before snapping a picture.
But now it just focus hunts with the focus shifting back and forth and the final result is unacceptable.
I want it to go back to the way it was before.
If I use another camera app like say the ever note camera it works perfectly fine. I'm only having a problem with the default camera.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks a lot guys
Its the way it is.

I understand your problem, but IMO it is not really a problem. Just tap on the object you want to focus and then tap on the circle to take the picture.
Just tapping on the Circle sometimes keeps the focus and sometimes not. its better if you tap and hold for a while before you release your finger.

Hey, thanks for the reply.
I just installed a custom camera app instead and its working like a charm. Its called QuickSnap.
The funny thing is that the default camera used to work perfectly fine before the 4.2 update.
Great!

Thats good, I myself noticed this thing on the stock camera app. but then again just few more taps fixed this but yes I tried Snap Camera
there no such issues with that, even on Instagram camera.
But I don't know why i feel that stock camera app is the best.
Cheers!
I'm having this big problem too.
Any of you guys notice that sometimes when using the flash it'll show the picture as overly bright right after you take it? but once you view it in the gallery it looks normal

Blue color distortion in photos with stock camera (pictures)

Hi. I've had this issue for quite a while and it's finally bothering me though to try to find out what it is. Please see attached photos.
What's happening is that in the same sequence of photos from the same moment I am getting weird blue tinted/ color distorted pictures. Same
lighting, camera wasn't moved. Has anyone seen this? How do I fix it?
I also posted this over on the OP forums.

Did you try wiping data and cache of camera app? It seems to me that somehow one of the filters is stuck and bugged.
o6 filter makes the cam blue.

I did try that after someone suggested that on the OP forums. I swear I did that before though, and the pictures are one after another, and they come out both normal and with that blue tint. It's very frustrating.
