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.

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?

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.

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?

When I attach a picture that I took in portrait mode to an SMS it gets turned sideways. In other words, pictures always get attached in landscape mode. Is there any way to change that?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I don't like this either.
The fix is to crop photo, after taking your shot, then delete the original to alleviate any confusion, and after that lengthy process, you can now post to MMS, or Facebook, correctly. I would hope to see an easier fix, but this works for now.

ya what the heck? I just noticed this. I don't recall ever having this problem on my N1... did I just never upload images???
Rotate doesn't even help! One of the nicest things about android is the easy of sharing photos to multiple places QUICKLY from the regular OS apps and this completely defeats the purpose. It's not just SMS it's sending to Facebook and other sharing as well.

Mod's: Please move if there is a better area for this request.
Suppose your significant other, boss, or teacher picks up your phone and they are curious about what's on your phone. Luckily for you, you remembered to set a password or pattern so no prying eyes can look at your info. But wouldn't you like to know who and when tried spying on you?
The idea I would like to share is for an app that would take a picture and time stamp of somebody incorrectly enters a password or pattern on the lockscreen. This app would silently take a pic with the front facing camera.
If I possessed the knowledge to write an app myself, I would and sell this app in the market. Just wanted to share this idea to those of you who can make it happen.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
That would be a sweet idea, but it would probably need to replace the lockscreen in a manner like WidgetLocker does.
That's a brilliant idea.
Eventually this app could include audio and video recordings along with a location fix.

Not sure if it would need to replace the whole lockscreen, The idea came, in part, from taking a screen cap of the lockscreen in MIUI. (The menu+vol down method)

I used and found this mod in the Sprints Galaxy S3 forum. I did not see this posted here so I wanted to share this. I take no credit for this. This was done by Freeza and by s3.Zeke.
What you have to do is use an app like root explorer and change the following lines in /system/csc/feature.xml
Edit the following:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Change the "false" to true. Save the changes and exit.
Reboot your phone and now you can toggle if you want shutter sound in options.
Remember you have to reboot your phone or it will not show up.

An easier way, for me was:
Open Root Explorer
Navigate to System>media>audio>ui
Mount R/W
Scroll down to 'Shutter.ogg'
Rename to 'Shutter.ogg.bak'
Profit!
I've done this on both stock and Beans B14. I haven't tried it on AOSP, so the file structure may be different, but the idea is the same. (The file was called 'Camera_shutter.ogg' on the Thunderbolt.)

While this idea turns the sound off, you have to go through all the steps to change it every time. The OP's way allows you to toggle it on and off inside the camera's options. So you wouldn't need to go through all the steps every time you want to turn it on or off.

I installed the 'HE' ROM, and made the changes above.
The settings menu is not showing the sound toggle, although the device was rebooted and the 'true' value is confirmed.
Was working on G7 previously.
I'll retry.

That's crazy. So Verizon actually removed that option with the update? I can't even think of anyway that would benefit them. I can confirm the T-Mobile version still has it on the latest update. Bizarre.

Its not a matter of benefit its a matter of perverts taking pictures and video with no one knowing. Its actually illegal in some states to disable the sound due to these retards that cant get their own woman and have to take pictures and video home to their computers to wack it too.

Thanks for this, works great on MA2! Just a note, make sure you properly set permissions of the saved feature.xml file. ES typically created a backup of the original file, and doesn't properly set permissions on the new edit, and this mid won't work until you correct that.
