Anyone know how to get the resolution higher on the contact pictures especially in the favorite's widget.
Sent from my LeeDroid HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
The best way I've found is to take a picture (like you normally would) and then go into "People" and edit the contact, manually choosing the picture. I just tried it and the image was much clearer and not pixelated.

Hi,
Do you guys know a better photo gallery to use with the Tab, as the stock one is sluggish and resizes photos, meaning that if I zoom in I cannot see any details, the pic gets blurry.

Custom Gallery3D build (from source code) by Number22, do a search on XDA.
or:
JustPictures (on the Market).
Cheers
The two I use are:-
JustPictures! ~ View Flicker, Picassa and all pictures on the Tab.
Works much quicker than the Gallery App and displays much more information including the total photo's in any one folder, when the folder was last added to and EXIF data.
Large Image Viewer ~ View photo's at full resolution.
It is quite surprising just how much detail is lost with the stock Gallery App.
Using Large Image Viewer is very quick and displays photo's in greater detail.

True. But I believe that Number22's Gallery3D build fixes this.
Justpictures messes up the wallpaper crop for the tab, the original gallery is better for that...
Original gallery doesnt mess up the crop but suffers from artifacts and errors when cropping. Just pictures doesnt suffer the same but makes incorrect crops. Number 22 gallery apk fixes both but suffers from fc errors. You're doomed!!!!!!

That's the main reason why I prefer Large Image Viewer which does not loose any detail zoomed in.
Large ismage viewer is great. I started using it as the main app for photos.

Happy new year!
I use Large Image Viewer to view high resolution images. it's free in the Android market.
Another +1 to Large Image Viewer. I tried Just Pictures and noticed nasty artifacts on my photos.

TY for the tips large image viewer is beautiful
Try out Fish Bowl Photo Viewer. Its cool.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Fish Bowl Photo Viewer has exactly the same problem as most image viewers: it won't show images at full resolution.
I've only ever found two full-resolution image viewers: Large Image Viewer (noted above) and QuickPic (currently available on Market as a beta). The latter has a less buggy interface (hidden files can be toggled back to hidden state, for instance), but neither of them comes with a proper directory browser or cbz/cbr/cb7 support, and neither one can perform the other infrastructure tasks that Gallery does (i.e. selecting crops of images for use in the contact manager), so I have three viewers installed: QuickPic, for high-quality images, the hacked Gallery3D app (to keep other apps working), and Perfect Viewer (for viewing lower-res images, cbrs, and finding images by filesystem path instead of trying to pick them out of a gallery list).
I'm stil looking for a replacement for Perfect Viewer, as I'm not all that enamored of the interface, but the only other similar app I found (ACV) had major dithering artifacts visible that bothered me even more.
Sorry, I misremembered. I stopped using ACV because it didn't fill the screen (and I didn't want to deal with the occasional distortions from Spare Parts). It was jjcomics viewer that had dithering artifacts.
Is there a way to get animated ".gif" images to display and show the animation in the standard gallery view?? I would love to be able to view my animations.. I can currently only view them from the browser, before they are downloaded... thanks for any info on this in advance...

Was hoping to find out the same thing.
Roaming the forums on the XDA app.
I have scoured the internet for this kind of subject and have found questions on this... but is always answered incorrectly.... I'm sure it can't be that difficult to accomplish knowing that is has been done already in other phones.... but it would take some rewriting I suppose.... ohh and also to apply the same in my message viewer when I receive ".gif" animations, I can't view them there either... thanks for any info peeps

It would really make a nice difference for the mostly static pics.
Maybe it does need a whole new gallery prog?
Does not sound impossible - only nice..
is there a photo viewer that will read 100% of the quality from a >10 megapixel jpg?
most viewers out there top out before and omit the remaining details so the picture quality on screen is below that of the actual picture.
Just pictures allows you to display at original resolution, need to tweak the settings and choose original file size as the option

I use quickpic on my Evo. It doesn't do online accounts like Facebook and Flickr, but I believe it shows you the high res image. Also, it's registered as a gallery app, so you can set it to open pictures by default. Just pictures doesn't do that for some reason. It's very fast and light weight.
just pictures just fails on the large megapixel pictures when "original resolution" is selected.
try Large Image Viewer..it's still a bit buggy but generally works.
I have found QuickPic to be te best on the larger screens. Just wish it could link to my Picasa account.

I don't know how you have it working, but it doesn't even launch on my Transformer.

Quickpic seems good but it doesn't show the level of zoom, so it's impossible to be sure when 100% has been reached.
Hi.
I'm wondering how to increase the font size in the phone.. the screen size way to big... But the default font size is to small even. Compare to my friend wildfire...
Thz.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Amen! Font size is a joke. You need a magnifying glass to read a text you are sending. I'm looking for options too before I return.
There should be options in all the apps (Gmail, Email, Browser, Messages, etc) to make the font bigger. Most all apps have this option.
Agree the font is minimalistic for this vibrant large screen...we need a global setting! At it some apps can be enlarged...
Download spare parts change font size near the bottom!

Can you please tell me where you download 'spare parts' from the bottom of where?
Spare Parts is found on the marketplace. It is free. There are two versions, doesn't matter which you get.
Also, in the text messaging app, you can pinch to zoom to get smaller or larger text. Not sure if stock can do this as I run Insert Coin.

The pinch to zoom in text is a 3.5 feature, so regardless of Rom, as long as its 3.5 based

i GOT IT~! its working in ARHD 3.6.8 ROM.. Nice..
You can also increase the lcd density in the build.prop This will make everything a bigger. I'm currently using 255 instead of 240.
After moving some images from the camera to a new folder, the regular gallery app won't show them, just a triangle where the image should be. Also, I can't send these images in messages from quickpic. What can I do about this? They're all pics of my newborn son and everybody wants to see him!

did you try clearing quickpic's data and cache
I have a problem with Quickpic too - when I try to assign a picture to a contact - when you pick a picture, choose 'set as' and then try and assign a picture to a contact it just doesn't work. The picture to be assigned opens up with the margins to be set (edit mode), fades away for an instant and then comes back. When you set the margins and click the floppy disc icon (in the top right hand corner) to 'save' the picture the screen goes black and you have to exit the program. I'm fairly sure that this feature used to work fine up until recently. I've even gone as far as to do a factory reset on my phone, reflash my phone's ROM and reinstall the QuickPic app. No change though, I still can't set a contact picture.
Can anyone help? My phone is a Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray.

So the images wont show in the stock gallery app or quickpic? Hate to say this but they may have gotten currupted during the move.
