Got a replacement S3 because previous one gave me issues. I had synced my contacts on the old S3 to Google to assure that the transfer would go over fine...I was wrong. After downloading the contacts on the new S3, I realized that the contact photos were very pixelated since they were all high res on the previous phone. And no they weren't linked to any social networking sites nor did any app keep the contact photos synced.
Is there any way to fix this or do I have to manually go through each contact again and update their photos? Is there any way to avoid this pain in the @SS process? I thought Google contacts stored high res photos?
Bump! Does anyone have any advice on this?
My technique for managing many photos:
download photos from my phone to to my computer then delete them from the phone,
crop, and edit on my computer
import only the best ones back to my phone.
When dealing with many photos, this is actually much faster then trying to edit and crop many photos on the phone.
The problem is, whenever I import photos to my phone from my computer, the gallery apps, including the stock Android gallery app, sort photos by the date modified or imported to my phone, not the date taken. So my photos taken last year will be sorted by the time I exported from my computer, not the time the photo was taken. Other than using Quick Pic does anyone have a way to fix this?
I'm using a Sony Xperia Z1 and a Nexus 7, and HTC One before that, and all of the native gallery apps had the same problem.
Hey guys, I just recently got the Idol 5.5 and can not seem to figure out how to organize my photos into separate albums like I've been able to do on previous phones. Does anyone know how I can achieve this? Thanks in advance!
I haven't tried the gallery app, simply because I'm using "QuickPic" a universally recognised gallery application that lets you view and create albums and is greatly customisable! You might want to try that
I wish it was more compatible with Google Photo. Right now, it tells me to open Gallery to delete any photos
Hi
Long time ago, I took time to use HD pictures for all my contacts. Everything is saved on my google account.
There wasn't any problems until now. I don't know if it's because I was using only Nexus devices. Now i own a Galaxy S7, and all my contacts (except the favorites) got blurry pictures.
If i use a computer to check and change a photo, it's still blurry.
But if I change it from the phone, the photo is nice and clear (it's always save on my Google account).
I know there was some issues with the release of Google Contacts V2, when they decided to use small circle profile pics.
Is it possible it can be related the google account in general and affect everything?
If I load (again) all pictures with the phone, are HD pictures will be be saved and synced for future use?
Thanks
I want to advice this 2 problem, with my mi note 10, already rised into this threads:

Google photo recognize as 0.7megapixel (960x480) photo taken with main camera, and it will backup photos with such this low resolution.
Amazon photos isn't simply able to complete a backup.
Really bad situation here....
I've already triggered mi support, what we can do?
No problem with Google Photos from my Note 10.
Smae identical problem about Google photo
No problem for me, Google Photos backup 27MP and 108MP photos without any issues

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yeah, no problem here either. All photos backed up in full size.
Some of my photos are backed up but others are flagged as 0.7 Mpixels. It's not related to our phone because I found the issue on Mi9T/9T Pro forums. It seems that moving the photos from one folder and back again to the original fixes the issue.
Same problem
Some photos back up fine, but some show erroneously as 0.7Mpix and don’t back up to Google photos. Those ones also erroneously show no GPS location.
Same problem. To correct it I have to clear all the data of Google Photos app and delete low res duplicates. It is really annoying
There is a workaround it (better than clearing the google photos)
the methods are:
1. Open the built-in Photo App. Create an album(ex. G-Backup Album) inside the built-in photo App. This will create a folder with the same name as the album.
2. Select all you photos and click "Add to" button below. Then select the "G-Backup Album" album and click on "Move" option. After this, all photos will be moved to "G-Backup Album" Album.
3. Open Google Photo App, add "G-Backup Album" folder to the list of backup folders in the Setting. Then you will see that all photos are being uploaded normally and the size are shown correctly.
Makesure u dont open the Google Photo apps.. before you do this methods
Hi Wing_Zero85 in my case something similar happens to my "mi note 10".
Neither the amazon photos app nor google photos automatically upload the photos to the cloud.
I have activated all the permissions, I have tried many things and nothing, they do not automatically upload photos to the cloud.
With google photos it doesn't bother me too much, but with amazon photos it does bother me.
For amazon photos to upload photos to the cloud, I have to manually open the app, because it doesn't automatically.
For the other apps, there are no problems, whatsapp, telegram ... they work well in the background, notifications arrive well .....
But what happens with the amazon photos app is very annoying and frustrating.
