[Q] Photos Don't Fit or Scroll - Windows Phone 8x by HTC

Hello there -
My wife uses the 8X and has been having some issues lately. When she is using Internet Explorer, she often looks at pictures.
When we zoom in on a picture it, of course, doesn't fit in the screen. That's fine and normal.
But, we we try to scroll over to the other side of the photo, no go. It's not possible for some reason.
I've tried a different web browser on the phone but had the same issue.
Help me, help her. Thanks.

I found the best force orientation app ever!

I'm here to recommend one to u guys, found it in the market after a few hours.
Since i cant post links, search for 'Display orientator' by RUBBERBIGPEPPER
Well, I've looked the app up on the internet and really I can't find anything really special about it. Could you maybe explain why you think it's so wounderfull?
Here. I think it's actually worth trying! Thanks OP
I was just searching for such an app and stumbled upon this thread.
It seems like a great app. There are some apps that I use daily which do no allow vertical orientation. With this app, I was able to force it....
Thanks!
fantastic and very useful little app, flick golf looks miles better wide screen ;-) . thanks....
Perfect! Just what I've been looking for.

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to bump a 2 months old thread but here goes. It's still relevant now anyway.
It's not the problem whether this app is special or not, it's actually the only app on the market that allows you to force your screen's orientation. Well, there is actually another one but it's not free and the reviews said it's not working properly.
I've had issues with one game where I accidentally kept pressing the softkeys. Used this app to turn the screen 180 degrees and I don't have that problem anymore. Also surfing the internet (I tend to switch between portrait or horizontal when browsing) or watching youtube while lying on bed is no longer a problem.

Instagram hangs on processing

Hi Forum
I bought HTC Sensation two days back. Instagram giving me problem. It stuck on processing, and my phone goes unresponsive. I have to put my battery out. -a thing that I dont want to do every time-.
How to get rid of this issue? Any one having issue with Instagram?
Thanks for your time.

Are you trying to process pic from gallery and not from the current pic you took with the camera?
The issue happened when I process pic that I just taken. Once issue happened when I process the pic that I took from stock camera. And second time issue happened when I took picture from Instagram camera.
In both ways, app read the pic from gallery. Am I right?

That's a problem with instagram , even myself have the same problem. Instagram cant process picture from the Gallery. So you must process it immediately after you took it from camera. Also the ugly thing when you try to load from the galley you notice the confirmation message at the back the Green and Red button, when i use it for the first time thought someone was calling. LOLS, so live with it or uninstall
I picked a existing picture from gallery and it successfully uploaded. But when I select the picture that just taken by camera it hangs.
By this, it means I should give it a delay. And then upload pic on Instagram.

Hmm in my case, issue is with the freshly picture taken by camera. An old pic can work.

Are you rooted and running a custom ROM or are you stock?
If you are rooted, flash the attached file. It's the newest GL 218. It helps FPS and boosts the performance of your device. It will also help with your Instagram issues, specially if you are rooted, the older GL versions had issues with it.

You've got it completely backwards. OpenGL 128 breaks Instagram.

So does 213. I was meaning my attachment was the new 218 GL that had functioning Instagram. Not that the new 218 was the reason.

I wanna say there is a way to flash even though you have S-On. I always root, so unfortunately I don't know the process or any guide that might help you.
You might want to check into that. There may even be another way that I am not aware of. It's something worth looking into if you want to fix instagram.

My phone suffers from the same problem.
I believe it has something to do with the HTC Gallery because in AOSP/CyanogenMod ROMs this never happens to me. After you share a photo from gallery and it hangs, if you check your DCIM folder in the SD Card after 5 minutes, the .thumbnails folder has a lot of space taken. (Mostly from 500-1.5GB for me) If it's empty the app hangs and freezes. Don't know why but thumbnails folder get full after the app freezes and those files are temporary and get deleted after some time for me.
You just gotta live with it and hope you're lucky if it doesn't freeze, or use an aosp rom.

My Solution
NEVERMIND....IT DIDN'T WORK
I hope it works for you as well. For me the problem was coming because i had Instagram on the SD card. I transferred it on the internal memory and it works perfectly.
Just wanted to share

I am also having the same problem. It's driving me crazy having to take off my otterbox and removing my battery every time I want to post a pic. Nothing has been working. Clearing data, uninstalling, force stopping, my phone just keeps freezing.
If memory serves, it's to do with the OGL that HTC have used. If you want to fix it, you'll need to use a custom ROM.
fix
installing Instagram to the Internal Storage fixed this ! ...but filters don't work all the time
I'm using MildWild's Rom (HTC Desire), it has this option to install apps to your internal, even though app2sd is installed
other solutions I found(didnt work for me, might work for others) were:
-Instagram>Settings>Advanced Features>Use HQ Image Processing
-Go to Developer Settings>Force GPU Rendering
-Crop/resize to 612by612 before uploading (Filters work if I use this)
-Dont use filters
-Use instagram itself to take teh pictures
---- my Instagram btw: amclouds

[Q] jellybomb galaxy s3 (sprint)

I was hoping I could find some help. I have jellybomb i believe its v.6.0 and i was wondering if I could get a hand with an issue. everything works great until I went into my gallery. All my photos are there, I see the number of photos etc but i cannot see the photos themselves. When im in the camera to take a photo the little display box shows the last photo taken but when clicked on it sends me back to the camera to take a photo. If anyone can give me a hand, I am a bit of a newb in all honesty, I'd appreciate it..Lamens terms are also much appreciated! :silly:

[Q] Please Help adding Photo to Contact

Hi, I am having trouble adding a photo to a contact and can't find the answer anywhere. I recently bought the phone and just have a few days to return it if it's the phone. I love the phone and hope I don't have to return it. All my Droids have been easy til now. Ok, here's a run down of how I'm doing it.
Touch on contact>3 dots top right>edit>touch blank image of face>choose photo from gallery>touch on photo>there is a dotted square around photo like I'm cropping, touch on the check beside done and says "unable to save photo edits" and a little circle going around like a computer trying to load.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Yeah that's exactly the most complicated way to do that^^
But it worked for me that way you described. What kind of image type is that?
Is it maybe a wrong format?
Take a photo with your camera and try to use this.

Thanks but I already tried that. Must be something wrong with the camera. The image is factory set
Are you on any custom rom? Then ask in that specific thread.
Are you completely on stock? Then try a factory reset. If problem persists then contact Motorola support.

Favorite Photos Disappear Randomly

The stock gallery app has a heart shaped icon you can select to create a folder of your favorite pictures. Recently and seemingly randomly, my entire favorites folder disappears and all selected photos become unselected. So far, it has happened twice this week.
Anyone else try this yet? Does it work for you?

Yes I have had this issue and its very annoying. I lost all my marked photos and have to search them all again in the gallery. Not sure if this is a bug in EMUI 4.1 because I haven't upgraded yet to EMUI5. If it's still there in EMUI5 then Huawei is yet to address it.

Google photos and Adobe Lightroom for editing. I'll try using various features one at a time to isolate the issue.

Well bro , i wonder how he is doing. Even i do need a update from him now:highfive:
This is so frustrating! I tried the following and nothing happened:
- Editing a favorite photo using the stock editor
- Editing a favorite photo issuing Lightroom
- Sharing a favorite photo via sms
- Sharing a favorite photo via Facebook
- Viewing a favorite photo via Google Photos
- Restarting the phone
Since none of that caused the favorites folder to disappear, I moved on with my life and over the next few hours, I did the following:
- Phone calls
- Browsed the web
- Sent text messages
- Played music over Bluetooth
Just as I had nearly forgotten about this issue, I decided to check one more time and now the favorites folder is gone again! I have no idea what caused it but it's now the third time in the past 2 weeks. I only recently started using that feature but it doesn't seem to last for more than a few days for me.
Anyone else have any feedback?

Mine has suddenly lasted a whole week without deleting itself. Not sure how or why though...
I marked 5 pics back when I first replied a few days ago and the Favorites folder is still in my gallery showing all of the marked pics.
