I tried to upload some pictures to picasa from the sense ui. About 30% from the bottom of each picture there's a flat gray surface. The photos are good at the device and I can copy them to pc without problem.
Anyone experiencing the same problem?
A sample downloaded from picasa:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've had the exact same problem on this phone, and with my old desire. Only with the stock rom though. I don't believe anyone ever bottomed the cause of it. Popular theory was it was a bug with the default uploader of htc sense. Try using a different uploader.
Have you tried using the picasa tool app to upload?

Thanks. Haven't found any threads about this. I've reported the issue to HTC yesterday, will post the answer here. If there will be any. This is my first bugreport to them, I don't know how they handle these.
I don't want to use a third party tool for this until it will be really neccessary. I even don't know why photos aren't synchronized with my account?
Best of luck! This problem has been reported to HTC by hundreds of people over at least the last year. I just tried uploading with my custom ROM, same problem. (Type "Picasa Upload Grey" into Google!)
Some people have also reported that reducing the photo size helps. It doesn't for me. Even if I drop the setting on my camera from 5MP to 3MP it still gets the grey bar of fail.
The Picasa Tool app is actually very good. It will pop up in the list when you select 'share' and the app has recently had a massive UI overhaul and is a vast improvement over what is was a year ago.
We may be in for a long wait for HTC to get around to fixing this one!
I'll give picasa tool a try then. Just wonder if the issue still exists in the newer sense apps, too?
I came across that issue trying watch the gallery photos over DLNA on my TV. Any1 else?
Passed finally to HTC HQ
After some emails and answers to HTC the issue is finally passed to HTC HQ regarding to their last mail. I have sent them a half uploaded photo and attached many references to the problem found by google.
I think they have now realised that this is not a stand alone problem (first they suggested me to soft reset / uninstall picasa app which wasn't installed either / hard reset phone).

I've encountered this weird problem with the camera. The phone is brand new. When trying to take pictures, in the viewfinder and the pictures taken, it was blurry and ghostly, something exactly like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have tried so many ways including hard-resetting, flashing to new ROMs and whatnot. Still none works. Any suggestions, please, I don't wanna send te phone all the way to HTC Turkey for repair, as HTC USA claims that my phone's serial number belong there. Thank you all.
I had a similar problem with my Fuze's camera. When I would take photos, it would look like static (meaning the image would not come out at all) but it would be colored exactly the way your photo is colored (the greens, purples, and oranges).
That phone also had a dead pixel on it, so I ended up returning it to an AT&T store, and they gave me a replacement. The problem did not exist on the new replacement phone, so i'm guessing its an issue with the camera.

Thank you for your confirmation, I guess I've gotta try to contact HTC then since I've got my TouchPro on E-Bay.

my step dad had this problem on his iphone and he did a hard reset and it fixed the problem but i would say normally if this happens it is a problem with the ccd so i would try hard reset and dont' load any apps if it still does not work then RMA it
Don't know if any have tried it, but it works on cm7. You can't search for other artists (apparently, when google found out about the leak, they shut down the servers..(for both down load and streaming).
But the app by itself is nifty enough to make me want to use it instead if the native music app. It has a nice iphone-like flow-search (or whatever that's called).
Check out my screen shots below. I dont have much music on my phone now (so no cracks about the sound of music track I have in there), but you can get an ideas of what it looks like.
I would upload it for you guys, but I don't know where it is on my phone. I installed it, and then opened it immediately. When I tried looking around on the SDcard, I couldn't find it anywhere.
But just search here in xda under "honeycomb music app leaked" or similar.
Edit : I don't think it works in Froyo.
Edit: anyone know why these screen shots are blurry? they look fine in my gallery....??? [when I try to upload them to this thread, tapatalk takes over--(which I presume is the xda app), so I think something is getting screwed up st that point.. And I am not near a working computer at the moment

Then how come its not used in any roms? Or at least more frequently used. I have been playing with it for 2 days, and it is a fast nicer music app them the old one.
How long ago was this originally leaked? From everything I have read (which could be wrong I guess), this music app is for honeycomb and is going to be part of google's anticipated entry into music to compete with the iPhone/iPod. It can't be that old.

Hey all,
I flashed CM 10 last night and when I went to use my camera, my screen looked like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

As you see.. the camera preview is messed up. Displaying the image the camera sees four times... and not even fully rendered.
I wasn't able to get an actual screenshot of this off my phone as it saves it as a normal picture so I had to use a real camera. The camera functions and takes proper pictures... but the screen so messed up it makes it difficult to take a pic. Also, if I change settings the gallery crashes.
Has anyone come across this before? If so... how do I resolve this heh.
TIA!
Any thoughts? This is driving me insane lol.
My suggestion would be clearing data on the gallery(camera is part of the gallery) to see if that helps. Also try ticking the box under developer settings that references HW overlays.

Clear your data in the gallery see of that works, n fyi don't freak out if your pictures don't pop up in the gallery after you clear gallery data, your pictures aren't gone they will pop back up after some time

Destroying my battery life. Never had this before but recently my battery has been utter crap because of this. Always have had the same setup with every ROM I've had with Franco kernel. But this is ridiculous; at this time by 1pm I'd usually have 85-90% but I'm already at 68%. Anyone else have this?

Looks like an issue with Yahoo! Messenger's voice/video plugin
Have you tried uninstalling it or configuring it?
Or do you have any other third party apps that use the camera?
It happened to me multiple times, this is caused by an app using the camera wich crash. For me it was Snapchat, it told me that it could not access the camera so I stopped the app but some hours after I saw that this "mm-qcamera-daemon" killed my battery. After a reboot everything was ok : Snapchat working correctly and no drain.
I think that if you get an app saying that the camera is not accessible, immediately reboot your phone.
it also shows up every time you take hdr photos
Seems like it's snapchat guys. It wasn't able to access camera. Reboot fixed it temporarily but this is annoying as I notice it happens a lot now. Thanks for the info.

Yes. I have this issue, since a few days, too.
There is maybe a bug or something. I found a thread where lot's of people reporting the same issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=60058
In another Thread here, I found some solution possibilities like uninstalling Google Goggles. But it didn't help me.
So if anyone founds a solution how to (manually) fix it, please report. Not using the Phone and have a battery drain of about 50% in ~5h is annoying.
Maybe someone can make an app that detects which app is causing this problem or which can kill the process!?
€dit:
I have neither snpachat nor Yahoo Messanger installed
Google just announced a fix for this bug. Android Central: Google pinpoints Nexus 5 camera/CPU usage bug, fix coming in next Android release. http://google.com/newsstand/s/CBIwzPD-ihI
If this post helped you, feel free to click "Thanks"... Thanks!
Hi All,
I am facing a problem when I am trying to change the default gallery app to Google Go or AI Gallery.
The only problem I am facing is that when take a photo and click on the photo to see it in the gallery. It directly takes me to the default gallery which shows me an annoying message:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I just do not want to tap on agree. But, it keeps coming back and I think it will be coming back until I agree to it. So, I do not want the default gallery anymore.
I have tried using "Default App Manager" and it successfully changed it to AI Gallery. But, when I open photos from the camera, it is again opening the default app.
Still no reply on this.. Anyway, I have changed few settings that I didn't want. I was able to do most of the things to make this phone perfect. But, this is the one thing that I couldn't find a workaround for..
Same here. Changing default gallery app makes no difference, it always opens Xiaomi gallery. One for the bug list I think. But for me, not a problem but thought I would test just in case you thought you were going mad.

Well, I was about to change the camera app itself to GCam. But, some people are saying it is better than stock and others are in saying the opposite. Plus, I do not think installing GCam is straight forward and if it is not AT LEAST as good as the stock camera app I'd not even consider it. The camera on this device is insane!
Thanks for replying. At least someone is sharing the same experience. I'm still looking for a workaround. If you find something. Don't forget to update me.
Will do. But if you want to try the gcam, look at playstore for GCamloader app, there is a Xiaomi link in the list, see screenshot.
