Sorry to hear that. Going forward, you might want to automatically make backups. I have Foldersync set up to instantly upload to Dropbox all the pictures I take, as I take them.

Yess, I disabled that because it takes too much battery. But I'm pretty sure it was still there after disabling that. Maybe not?

I have Google+ disabled and still see it. Maybe turn off HDR+ if on...
Tried that too, still not there ? Very weird

Line Across Camera Screen?

There's a line across the screen when using my camera app...stock camera app...I'm on latest Paranoid with latest PA GApps and it just started today out of nowhere.
The line appears in every camera setting...Panorama, photosphere, Video etc. Anyone else ever see this? Any suggestions for a fix?
What I've tried...
1) Reflash ROM and GApps
2) Flash a different kernel
3) Start new (AKA clean flash)
NONE OF THESE HAVE WORKED
What I haven't tried...
1) Wiping the phone, locking the bootloader and starting over.
Any thoughts? Hardware issue? Thanks.

It's ONLY on the camera app right? Have you tried another app? If it does then it's a hardware problem.
when taking the photo and viewing it what does it look like? line through it?

Thank you for the responses guys unfortunately its definitely a hardware issue...the line is there in every photo app and also there in gallery when viewing a photo I've just taken. I have a warranty replacement on the way to me.

This phone is really good but this is an annoying bug. Do roms built from source have the same issue?

Resize Photos In Gallery

I searched the forum and didn't find anyone else ask this so I'm posting. Question is, is it possible to resize the photos in the gallery? I could on my S5, but I don't see the possibility on the G3.
Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk
As in crop? Or do you want to lower the resolution?

I wonder if I lost that function from rooting. If I don't have Google+ installed, I have no way of editing my photos. It allows it through the Photos app which is part of Google+. Interesting...

hmm, so when you click the pencil (edit) button what's the first option? as you can see for me its the "shrink" icon which gives you the resizing options. you rooted but didn't install a rom right?
post a screenshot !

I'm rooted and I don't have a shrink option either. infact the whole edit screen is completely different, and what's that icon in the top left of your screen? it's almost like you've installed a different editor or something.

I just took a picture and posted it to instagram without issue.
I imagine something like this would work in a pinch https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xnview.XnResizeLite
I don't have any issues with posting either, but if you want to include the entire image you can't.
I think it's safe to say that rooting messes with some things.

I doubt that. nothing changed when I rooted it.
as for posting the whole picture, instagram seems to require square pictures, which means you're going to crop them or distort them to make it work. There's nothing to be done about that, if you resize the whole photo you're going to distort it, if you crop then you lose the sides.
I would suggest framing the picture properly so when you crop it you're not losing the focus of the image. The other thing you can do is trick it with an app eg: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.artyapphouse.squareit&hl=en which adds white borders to the image to make it square

Thanks for the reply. I knew that about Instagram, but I'm telling you, the edit functions disappeared after rooting. Look at the attached screenshot. There's no pencil (edit icon) if you remove Google+. Unless that is the only option provided to us for editing, which it may have been as I didn't pay attention to it until I rooted, then something is missing.

seems you answered your own question? install g+ and get the edit option back if that's the case and that's what you want.
I guess I'm a little confused at this point. sorry

I'm trying to get to the bottom of if rooting removes some editing options out of the gallery app. I'm going to use the flashtool and see if anything changes when I'm back to 100 percent stock.
Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk
Well, I did the FlashTool and still no editing capabilities without Google+ and their Photos app. Apparently LG is using Google's software to edit photos. Very limited choices and I'm a little disappointed.

then dont remove them? they dont really do anything if you dont use them, they just sit there, and atleast youd be able to edit your photos.
on the up side it offers free backup of all your photos if you do use it... pretty nice perk if ya ask me
try installing another app that's for editing images and see if that works?

I was just trying to get to the bottom of the editing software. Now I have. There is just limited possibilities. Already installed an app to handle this. I'm good to go.

Problem "screen pixel"

Hi everybody,
I've Nexus 5 with original rom Android Lollipop 5.01
I've a strange problem and I'd like to know if it is a software or hardware problem.
Sometimes, and only with Facebook app, in a part of the screen appear few pixels and they disappeared when I close the app or I move between tab.
Enclosed an example, I reproduce it in photoshop.
Any idea?
Thank you very much.
Ciao!
Its probably a damaged flex cable. Cheap to replace.

Tky for reply. This appears only on Facebook app, and sometimes.
If cable is damage I think always I had this problem.
And if the problem is the app? It's possible?

Not really sure if it only happens in Facebook then.
I'd say ignore it a bit for now, but if it happens more and in other apps then replace it.

Don't think so, no. Unless you know which exact colors in which exact pixels are causing the issue, which is pretty impossible.

This is a bug in Lollipop and has nothing to do with a hardware defect. I get this in several other apps as well. A fix from Google is already on the way and will be released with a next update of Android.
