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.

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
Hi, i have got a galaxy s4. I cant save photos after take it. I have got availability. What can i do?
What happens when you try to save them?
Hi all. I want to update my phone with new ROM, firmware but I'm still using the stock ROM. I feel ready to go but I have a bunch of photos saved under favorites in the stock Gallery app. My question is, how to I keep the "favorite" designation on the photos in some way? Exporting them under a folder is ok with me except I can't figure out how to do it.
I know how to keep ALL the photos. That's not the problem. I want to keep the ones marked as "favorite" still marked so that they can be easily accessed. If that is not possible, or easy, my next hope would be to save the favorite photos as their own folder or something.
thanks!
First post so, sorry if this is in the wrong section or doesnt have the right flair or whatnot mods feel free to move this/edit if need be.
So onto the problem. Heres the situation I was taking a lot of photos (possibly at the time 200+) and I was telling the phone to put them on my extSD card. The SD card is the officially branded Samsung 64gb version. So when I was finished taking all these photos I went back only to realize that about 15 were showing up normal in the Gallery. The others has that weird symbol with the crack/lightning bolt through it. Weirdly enough even though the images don't load the thumbnails do, on some of them. And the ones that I have gotten to load are extremely blurry and not very hi res.
Some things that I should probably write here to help narrow down a solution. I am running the default Android 4.4.2, the phone didnt get too hot since it was out most of the time. I had it turned up to the highest resolution 5312x2988. I'm currently on vacation so I didnt have a carrier, or connection to the internet at any time. The photos are also taking up the amount of space they normally would so I have no idea whats really happening.
I have tried opening it in windows directly and to my surprise a few of the thumbnails did load but when I went to click on them windows photo viewer or whatever said it couldnt open them. I tired then opening the photos via IE but that didnt work either. I'm just wondering if theres any way to get them back or to see whats wrong with the card. If you need any clarification what so ever please let me know. Thanks a bunch!
I have the same issue
