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.

Hello ! I've bought my Polaris one week ago. I was very pleased with it, until today, i took some photos last night, and when i tried to view them from my pc, they were all corrupted, i haven't succeeded to open the pictures with anything. I searched the forums, and some posts (on other sites) came out. Somehow, after rebooting the device and taking more pictures with the camera, i managed to obtain pictures that were readable on the PC.
Can anyone help me figure this out ?
Another question..i've bought this phone from Vodafone Romania , i understand that if i upgrade the phone's ROM or Radio Rom, my warranty will be lost. Is there a way to back-up the phone's Rom so i can benefit of the warranty in case of malfunction?
I would gladly want to upgrade to a newer ROM and Radio Rom.
I have present now the following versions :
R = 1.58.21.23
G = 25.65.30.04 h
D = 1.25.00.00
Thanks in advance.

Ok man, thanks for the reply, the post where you redirected me talks about dumping the rom.
I've mentioned about some corrupted photos...can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance
Well, I've got the exact same photo problem during the first 2 weeks of my time with my TC.
I had to reset the device before I could take proper pics.
I was monitoring this problem, trying to find out what was causing the problem. Before I knew it, the problem disappeared. Having the device for abt 4 months now..
I know I aint helping much, but just letting U that youre not alone.

Same issue here. Thought it was due to all the additional software & tweakage i have loaded. I had to hard reset to get the camera pics to work. Did this to me 3 times when I had Ultimate Launcher loaded & few "enhancement"tweaks. Very strange. Back up your phone OFTEN.
Are u using Tweaks2k2?
I got the same problem when I enabled "Increase SD/MMC Transfer Speed".
If disabled, everything is OK.
Wish u good luck~~

Actually yes, and yes. How you figure the connection with Tweaks2k2 and the SD speed? good job!

Ha-ha, really happy that it works on your Polaris.
Actually, some photos took on my wedding party were corrupted. It is really depressing.
So I just tried all the possible settings on Polaris.
Luckily, I found it…
same problem here. Lost some value photos on the TC.
If you can't view them on th device (blank screen) they are corrupted.
Looks as a temp problem for the device, as when you approve the photo just taken (ie, by selecting the magnifying glass icon), it's there for good, if not - it shows as if the picture is there (thumbs) but not really.
Sounds (to me) like the device is not handling the temporary picture taken right, and instead of burning it in (=approved), it is left in a temp location (to be erased by following pics).
As I had the problem with email (messaging disappeared), where I discovered in this forum it had to do with inbox/attachments folder path failure in the SD card, I may suspect the photo problem is the same, as most of us use the SD for such storage.
Hi!
I know it's a stupid question, but how do I turn on the Front camera on Omnia without making a video call? So I could actually take a photo with it.
Thanks.
ts actuay a od questnon
long story short thopugh u cant
Yeah there is an exe somehwere in the Windows folder, can't remember what it is, try looking on:
http://omnia.modaco.com
There is basically a Omnia dev community there. Not as awesome as the one here though
Edit:
Unfortunately cannot be used for picture taking, just as a test. Why you would want to use that over the 5MP camera I don't know...
Oh. .. but is there maybe an application with witch help I would be able to use it?
use omniafrontcamera.exe here:
http://www.xtkit.com/archives/21
there is a simpler way, *#0*# then choose CIFCam
Try this one:
You can take photo with this.

how to use this zip file. please helpme.
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.
Several photos were inadvertently deleted, one of which was my lock screen photo, which I really want to salvage. I can't seem to find it anywhere on the phone. I've also tried Android file transfer, no luck there either. If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears. Stock android 5.0.1 if that matters. Thanks.

Your lock screen photo? Stock android doesn't let you set a separate photo for your lock screen. It just uses whatever your home screen wallpaper is.

How was it deleted? Most of the time, if you delete something, it's gone.
If you mean you set a wallpaper then deleted the image and you think its recoverable because its still your wallpaper, well its not. It doesn't store the image anywhere.
If you're rooted, there are apps that may be able to recover the deleted photos
Yeah that's what I mean. I thought it would still be a data file somewhere.

Yep, its stored as data not as an image.
Ok, so it's stored as some kind of .dat file and therefore not recoverable in its original JPEG format. Is that correct?

If its something you got off the internet you could try taking a screenshot and using a reverse image search service like Google Images or Tineye.
Like Rootsu said, try this app in the play store "diskdigger".
I lost a load of photos after an update, this app found all of them.
It will also find a lot of junk so it will take you a while to sort through everything.
Needs root.
Hi to everyone. I will make short this expaining of my problem as much as its possible. So, open instagram and go in instagram story, than appears on down side so big black empty place. When post something, everything looks like its croped or zoomed in. Not in full original size. And when i switch accounts, go on second one and come back again on my main account, that black empty space is gone and finally my story appear in fully original size. And that stay only until im there in app. When i exit once than need again to switch accounts until black space remove. But because its anoying to do that everytime when i wish to add something on my story, i want to ask you guys does anyone of you have same problem like i have and does anyone have solution for solve this problem? I tried with reinstall app, restart phone, tried different versions(btw my current version is 179.0.0.26.132 bcs that is last perfect version for me and on newer version whole application is smaller and dont show on full size screen and that really pissed me off when looks like i look in old Sony Xperia z5), tried with change resolution but nothing help. You all guys can see clearly what is problem on video below. If anyone have any suggestion or know how to solve this anoying problem, please write below. Thanks

I'm not facing this problem, unfortunately I don't know the reason
