Your two options are: Get another gallery app, from the play store, or get another ROM.
Possibly another camera app, some come with their own galleries.

Photos are unclear,blurry in my Gallery:(

Hello guys,
I'm new to this site so 'Hello Everybody'
I discovered a very annoying thing in my phone's Gallery.Every photo taken or already toke is unclear,blurry.When i click on the photos to enlarge it becomes sharp and clear,everything fine,but as long as i overview the photos all of them are blurry.Even photos taken with another Camera program. I attach 3 Screenshots to show what i exactly talking about.
Please help me guys
They're just thumbnails. As long as the pictures show correctly when you view the full picture, it's perfectly normal.
Oh, and for the next time, ask questions in the Q&A forum. It's there for a reason, you know.

Thank you very much for the fast reply and sorry for posting to the wrong place.
But anyway this can be caused because of the os? Bug or somethin? Is there any chance the new 4.2.2 update fixes this? because i had a G note before the S3 and i didnt met this blurry thumbnail thing?
i just checked my gallery and my thumbnails are almost as clear as the enlarged pic,. know this sounds dumb but have you tried setting another system font

You mean Settings/Display/Font Style? If you mean this yes i've changed it to Choco cooky,but i changed back to default and no change.
Btw i have downloaded QuickPick from Google store and the thumbnails are clear.I don't understand this..

Use a file explorer that can show hidden files, then go to sdcard/DCIM/ and delete the .thumbnails folder... reboot, then open the gallery - the thumbnails will then all be rebuilt. Might take a while depending on how many photos you have.
Then see if they're still blurry!

What ROM you using? Have you installed any gallery mods (like maybe the one from the S4 apps)?
Try cleaning your camera lens, lol.

On this week i rooted the phone with odin for avast anti thieft then i reinstalled the stock 4.1.2 with Kies.Device status is normal.Can this cause the problem?Personally i don't think this maneuver can affect the Gallery thumbnails,but i'm far away from a phone expert.

are you talking about Touchwiz camera or AOSP camera? The picasa sign in notifications are from Google+ app, remove/freeze that.
It was the stock photo gallery app with the Samsung S5 SM G900 FD.
It's just called photo gallery. I erased it and replaced it with a different photo app. Now i lost some functions like attaching photos from a text. I need to know how to reinstall it?
Any ideas?

Correct me if I'm wrong but what you're saying is that you have not flashed any custom roms, haven't rooted and yet managed to delete the stock gallery app?
If that is correct go to settings>apps>app manager find your new photo app and click reset/delete defaults
I did root the phone which is why i was able to delete the stock photo app

Ok. Download stock rom, extract camera app from there. If you have CWM/TWRP backups extract camera app from them with winrar or your favourite archiver. It should also work if you download any touchwiz based rom and extract the camera app from there.:good:
Thank you! ! You wouldn't happen to have a link to the stock rom would you?
I didn't back it up with cwm because i was so annoyed by the constant sign in attempts that i thought there's no way i would ever want it back lol! I'm pretty new to this whole thing of tampering with system files and definitely not a guy who knows much about computers so as much info as possible is very much appreciated! !
Thanks! !

That sign in prompt is Google+ afaik not camera app. Anyway here's a link to a touchwiz rom for your phone, download it and extract the camera/gallery/photo app from there. Next time remember to always make a backup in recovery, you never know when you might need it :silly: :good:
Great thanks a lot! !?
Strange thing i extracted the system rom from that link you gave me. I can't find the photo gallery app anywhere in it. Can find everything else but that, any ideas where it might be hiding?

OK I found it, it worked, everything back to normal! I used the search tool and it came right up. Thanks again for the help, it sure is interesting to play around with these gadgets! Amazing to see the sheer volume of information that goes into programming one of these things when you actually get to physically see the programming. A world few people will ever get to see.

Google Camera problems.

Hi everyone,
I hope this is the right section for this kind of questions.
Anyway, I'd like to know if someone can help me.
I'm absolutely not able of getting Google Camera to work.
I tried different version, I think the problem is caused by the fact that our phone has a SD801...
But I have no idea how to solve it.
Camera just crash as soon as I open it.
Thanks to everyone!
Lorenzo Benevento.
Not just coz soc is sd801
It is arm based
Google camera is nowadays built for arm64 architecture
And which version would work?
If there is one obviously!

The versions which came with nexus 6 would work
That will be around v3
I tried but I can't downgrade. How come? It shows "corrupted package".
i use Google camera 2.7 in my zuk z1
I downgraded to 2.7.010, It works and connect to camera but I'm unable of taking videos!
It start recording but when I tap on the stop icon it freezes and the only thing that I can do is to reboot the phone. Or close the app (but camera would be busy, so no tourch for example or no other photos until the next reboot).
magnet1215 are you able to take videos?

Which version are you using exactly?
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7vk4UhGJqI0dEJWYlhlSDNwdWc/view?usp=drivesdk
Try this snapdragon camera. It will crash on first pic taken, first video taken, first slow or fast motion video. But honestly I tried lot of camera apps and this is best one of all.

Motion Pictures on OnePlus 5

Hey,
Does anyone know if it is possible to do with the default camera app or any other camera APK?
It's those pictures that also record a few seconds of each picture. I need do some of that stuff at work and can't find anything.
Like the "Cinemagraph" thing. Or that Motion Picture on Pixel 2
Thanks for help anyway!

Use the mod-ed Google Camera app. It has the motion foto option and it come activated in the app by default after you install it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/themes/google-camera-hdr-t3655215

Open 6 + Camera Service...

After open 6 update, I notice that photos looks worse than in open 5 and some functions like hdr are not working. Is the camera service not working?

Wait for the open 7. Sad but true. I tried everything that you can imagine. The only way that I fixed this, was installing the oneplus camera mod. The problem seems to be with the new camera app or camera service. The stranger thing is that I only saw you and another guy complayning about this.
Did you both clean installed Open Beta 6? Cleaned cache?
Sorry if this seems trivial but to have the same common ground it would be helpful to know this.

Sure. The problem is with latest camera app (2.5.25). I uninstalled it and installed the 2.5.23 from open 5, and everything is working now. The problem with 2.5.25, is when you take a picture and see it from the gallery shortcut on camera app, the post processing will not working, but if you go into gallery app, the post processing will be realized.

I am asking because i am using OB6 and i cant reproduce this misbehavior. It is working as it should and if this would be a reproducible problem, the OP forums would be filled with this i guess.

But, here is not working as should be. If I take a picture and try to see it directly from gallery shortcut on camera app, the pictures will be with much noise and hdr and hq will not be applied. But, if I go into gallery, the pictures will looks great and hdr and hq will be applied.
