Would an app like this be possible? - Java for Android App Development

I've got an idea for an app, but I'm not sure if it's possible...
My idea is for an AI image recognition app (possibly only using Pixel 6/7 phones with the Tensor chip?) that would constantly scan the phone screen (at a rate of at least probably 10fps) to detect a certain type of images onscreen and then place a blur over the images if they match the dataset. It would have to constantly scan the screen to be able to detect images not just in any particular apps, but instead system wide. The blur would have to move during scrolling to keep the image(s) obscured, while not blocking the entire screen with a blur.
Would something like this be possible? If so, would it only be possible on a rooted device?

photographer's app?

I am looking for an app to assist with medium/large format photography. Currently I use a spreadsheet to note the various settings for each frame, however there was an app (photoassist) I used on my old WM5 device that had drop down menus, though it doesn't work on the TP2.
Something that can also use the phone's camera as a lightmeter would be great too.

I second that I would love to not buy another Gossen Digipro F I would even through a $100 bounty on this. That will still save me $170.
Resco Photo Viewer can handle .raw, .tiff, .png, etc... files. Spb Imageer can do the same.
However, large format photos are going to cause extreme issues. The OS has a memory limitation of 32MB, so anything approaching that size will cause your device to crash...
Could you perhaps elaborate on a feature set you're looking for in this application? If I understand correctly you're wanting a way to record information about your individual frame settings, not a way to view or arrange these images on your device, correct?
I'm not promising anything, but depending on your requirements I might be able to assist you in creating an application that suits your needs.

Yes, it would be a pretty simple app. Basically there would be multiple drop down fields that are prepopulated with different values based the prior selection, some thing like-
Film size- 120/220/4x5/8x10, then presuming 120 is selected, brings up the next field,
Image format- 6x6/6x7/6x9/6x17, then presuming 6x6 is selected, brings up
Film type- Negative/Color Reversal/B&W, then
ISO- 50/100/160/200/etc, and so forth.
The above would be "master fields" that are global to the film I select, and subfields would then include the frame #, aperture, shutter speed, EV, etc.
All the info would then be recorded into a spreadsheet or database for later viewing.
The side app to turn the phone's camera into a lightmeter would be as simply as providing a live output of EV (exposure value) based on what the camera is seeing. A plus would be if it could output ISO/shutter speed/aperture values too, but we'll take things one at a time.

images don't show full resolution

so whenever i want to view an image at full res I can't I always had this suspicion when viewing stuff on the net and zooming in it just didnt look anywhere near a nice as on my pc (or windows mobile phone)
I just sent myself an email with an image (png) high res (2xxx by xxxx) the image is a map with lots of small images and text on it, when viewed on pc you can read all text just fine but on the phone its looks terrible (at least with default image viewer and the image viewers I have downloaded)
Whats going on?
I remember reading somewhere before that the phone can only display/render upto a certain amount of pixels regardless of how large your image is.. Also I notice on the default gallery viewer when you swipe around fast the image is ultra pixelated and have to wait for about 1-2 seconds.
This is really annoying. I don't think there is a fix at least that I can find. What a shame our powerful phones can't do what older phones can. Is it an android fault you think?

quite a shame endeed...
also when pinching into pics inside the gallery app, it won't load the full pix map
So I have been looking for a fix, b&b gallery does render the full image which is nice but not sure about browser. Do any of the browsers for android render full images or are all the same?

[Q] Hacking camera resolutions

Hi there.
I came from a previous HTC Inspire 4G phone. After a lot of custom rooms I ended up with one that had a lot of camera resolutions available for "hacking" the camera.
I'm wondering if there's a hack, code or something that can be changed on the S4 in order to get more camera resolutions.
What I'm trying to do is actually getting lower resolutions, like 640x480 or 1024x768 so I can take "snapshots" and avoid post-editing of the pictures.
To illustrate exactly the problem, I use the camera phone to scan big documents into pdf. Now the higher resolution of the default camera makes imposible to handle +30 pages scans, and the workaround (taking the picture, open the picture with a photo editor, resize the picture and save, then import picture on pdf scanner app) is not good enough, as it would steal the valuable time that you are suppose to be saving with this phone.
On the HTC the lower resolutions made it possible to just take a lot of "low res" pictures and pdf them really fast directly within the application.
I'm guessing that if you could pre-define lower resolutions to be selectable already on the stock camera application, maybe adding another ones could be as easy as "typing them" on the respective configuration file for the camera.
Any ideas?
Perhaps just take normal sized pictures at the nearest resolution and then write a bash script to crop or resize as necessary, and import that into the scanner app?
I'm not familiar with any hacks available to go beyond the usual stuff.
You can use InfraView (freeware) to batch resize all images. I do it for scaling boot animations all the time.

S8 Gallery app - Story Mode

So, I have just upgraded myself from G3 to this Beast phone (love it)
Native Galaxy Gallery App there is a Story Mode/ selection that puts together all the pictures you have then in a given day or location and adds background music & some effects but, in doing so it cuts the pictures so you end up with half the face or picture to see.
Are there any settings the I need to change to make the pictures show in full or is there any fix for this.
I tried searching the forums but found nothing. In case I was wrong please direct me to the correct post
I'm finding that I have the same results and can't find any settings to change the way it seems to zoom in on each photo. Really nice idea but poor execution...

No one else seems to have this issue or care for this feature
or they are too busy rooting/ unlocking the SD version of the phone
Can't say about others, but in my case: 1. easy enough to do it manually just the way I want it 2. it almost never works properly, besides cutting off the frame. Case in point, my phone created album called "at the beach", after we went to the beach. Well, most of the pictures in this album are not from anywhere near the beach and since I have location embedded in every picture and phone already correctly identified I was at the beach including particular field, not sure why it added pictures taken at home and many other locations. Bottom line: useless function personally I don't care about.

Problems with Android 9 Pie

I am now having a few problems with Android 9 on my new MI Note 7. I cannot use a number of Apps, at all or partially. One cause concerns Accessibility. After clicking the ON switch I get popups saying something about 'if an app is in the way I should move it aside'. I do not understand what this this at all, and I do not see the app I want anyway, for anything to be 'in its way'. The On switch returns to Off and cannot be kept on in the List of apps in Accessibility. I have not come across anything like this on my Android 7 Tablet and am baffled, though I expect it will turn out to be something basic?
A further problem is that an app which contains a file manager does not display pictures / photos, or documents, etc. I am guessing this is because it does not access the SD Card on which they are installed, rendering it useless?
I now have another problem as somehow I have altered the display colours and am unable to correct them through anything I can find in Settings. The colour Settings available have no effect. The unwanted effect mainly relates to the app ICONS which in general are washed out, the most obvious example is that anything which should be RED is displayed as BROWN. Green and yellow are also affected. I expected the display settings, such as colour and contrast, would eliminate the problem but they do not.
I have found the Setting to deal with the colour issue
I am still having problems with Accessibility not being accessible
I understand about 'Accessibility' being related to users with vision or other handicaps, it means this on my Windows PC too, but I don't think that was the menu I was referring to. However. I amn able to reproduce it even after given up on the Edge Action app which I have now removed. I suspected it may have been related to that, but it seems not as I am still getting blocked from using some apps, I am directed to Accessibility but cannot get the on / off switch to remain on even for a few seconds.
