[Q] Need Help with Photo Contacts - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I've read the manual and can't figure out how to put a pic with my contacts. My old Droid X and others was easy, menu>edit>photo. I've long pressed everything I could. When I get to "take photo or from gallery" it says "unable to save photo edits". I didn't even try to edit but touched on photo and got that message. Little circle spinning on pic, like trying to load. I hope it's not the phone, I've got less than 10 days to return it.
Any help for this phone will greatly be appreciated!

How are you storing your contacts? For me im using Google to back up my contacts and when i go to Contact list I choose a contact click on them and choose edit and i am able to add a photo.

Two threads for the same problem?
Oh my dear, open a third one, maybe this helps more.

Unlink Contacts

Sorry If this has been already asked. I searched everywhere and the responses didn't help.
Basically, my father and I have the same name, and my Samsung Captivate swears that we are the same person and decided to link the two contacts together.
I have searched in different forums and the answer is simple:
- Go to the contact
- Click on Menu>edit
- Click on Menu>unlink
However I have looked everywhere for that cute little "unlink" button with no success. I have even called the cops, but they tell me that my little button needs to be missing for at least 48 hours before they start searching.
Could you help me?
I hope this helps
1-open contacts
2- find you or your dads name
3-click on it
4- bottom of the screen should be "linked contacts"
5-click it
6-click on either one of the minus signs.

It was not at the bottom of the screen but at the middle.
Nice
Glad I could finally help someone, I was even getting ready to take screen shots.

[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.

Samsung Photo Editor not working

When I go into my gallery, and select to "Edit" the image, and then select "Photo Editor", it tells me "Photo Editor not installed on the device. Download Photo Editor?"
When I select to download, it takes me to an error screen within the Galaxy Apps store that says "Product does not exist in this store (4002)". When I select OK, the screen simply shows "Connection Failed - Retry" and when I select to retry, it gives me the same error code.
I've exhausted my google-fu on trying to figure out why this is occurring on my S6. The Photo Editor error message seems to be rare, and across multiple devices, but not much is out there on it regarding the S6, and definitely no apk's for it that I can find. Also, when I select the "Collage" option under the edit menu on a picture, that does nothing. It shows that my finger has selected it, but it does nothing more than that.
Does anyone know how to resolve this short of a factory reset in hopes that works on it? I'd really like to not have to do a reset, but at the same time, I've heard the stock photo editor is not a bad piece of software.
Help!
first select a picture or pictures then select studio
Are you using the stock gallery while running touchwiz and not another launcher? I can select edit and it just puts the editor controls right on top of photo.
Same issue
I am having the exact same issue described by the original poster. I can't find anything on how to fix it. Using the stock gallery app, unrooted, stock launcher...I open a picture, click edit, it tells me I need to download photo editor, takes me to Samsung appstore but won't download exactly as described above. I have downloaded another photo editor app which works fine, but I can't get to it (or any other editor app) directly by pressing the edit button while looking at a picture. It's just an extra couple steps that are completely unnecessary to be able to edit a photo.
If anyone has figured this out please let me know. Thanks.
Also I'm on Verizon if that matters.
I have the same issue. Have you gotten anywhere?

Unfortunately no
Make sure "Photo Editor" package "com.sec.android.mimage.photoretouching" is not disabled.
I disabled it by mistake using Package Disabler Pro.
I'm such an idiot
I'm such an idiot
I'm not on the tech level to be comfortable rooting my phone and what not, but I'm pretty darn good with these phones. Can't believe I did that...lol
Solved...I had disabled Samsungs photo editor
how do you check "com.sec.android.mimage.photoretouching" ??
thanks

Go to Settings/Applications and chose Reset app preferences fromn the three horizontal dots in the top right corner. Hope, it will solve..
