Magnifier widget - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

What exactly is this supposed to be used for ?
It appears to me to be nothing more than a camera app? It opens the shutter, allows for flash or no flash, focus, then capture.
Not understanding this as I thought it was a function to enlarge the screen ?

It takes extreme close up pictures and focuses more than the normal camera can

It's their to make things that you are unable to read readable

Better gallery for the Tab?

Hi,
Do you guys know a better photo gallery to use with the Tab, as the stock one is sluggish and resizes photos, meaning that if I zoom in I cannot see any details, the pic gets blurry.

Custom Gallery3D build (from source code) by Number22, do a search on XDA.
or:
JustPictures (on the Market).
Cheers
The two I use are:-
JustPictures! ~ View Flicker, Picassa and all pictures on the Tab.
Works much quicker than the Gallery App and displays much more information including the total photo's in any one folder, when the folder was last added to and EXIF data.
Large Image Viewer ~ View photo's at full resolution.
It is quite surprising just how much detail is lost with the stock Gallery App.
Using Large Image Viewer is very quick and displays photo's in greater detail.

True. But I believe that Number22's Gallery3D build fixes this.
Justpictures messes up the wallpaper crop for the tab, the original gallery is better for that...
Original gallery doesnt mess up the crop but suffers from artifacts and errors when cropping. Just pictures doesnt suffer the same but makes incorrect crops. Number 22 gallery apk fixes both but suffers from fc errors. You're doomed!!!!!!

That's the main reason why I prefer Large Image Viewer which does not loose any detail zoomed in.
Large ismage viewer is great. I started using it as the main app for photos.

Sorry, it's not showing in my thanks list.
Quickpic is my choise..
Happy new year!
I use Large Image Viewer to view high resolution images. it's free in the Android market.
Another +1 to Large Image Viewer. I tried Just Pictures and noticed nasty artifacts on my photos.

TY for the tips large image viewer is beautiful
Try out Fish Bowl Photo Viewer. Its cool.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Fish Bowl Photo Viewer has exactly the same problem as most image viewers: it won't show images at full resolution.
I've only ever found two full-resolution image viewers: Large Image Viewer (noted above) and QuickPic (currently available on Market as a beta). The latter has a less buggy interface (hidden files can be toggled back to hidden state, for instance), but neither of them comes with a proper directory browser or cbz/cbr/cb7 support, and neither one can perform the other infrastructure tasks that Gallery does (i.e. selecting crops of images for use in the contact manager), so I have three viewers installed: QuickPic, for high-quality images, the hacked Gallery3D app (to keep other apps working), and Perfect Viewer (for viewing lower-res images, cbrs, and finding images by filesystem path instead of trying to pick them out of a gallery list).
I'm stil looking for a replacement for Perfect Viewer, as I'm not all that enamored of the interface, but the only other similar app I found (ACV) had major dithering artifacts visible that bothered me even more.
Sorry, I misremembered. I stopped using ACV because it didn't fill the screen (and I didn't want to deal with the occasional distortions from Spare Parts). It was jjcomics viewer that had dithering artifacts.

Help with gallery

I use wallpaper wizadrii for my background images. However I noticed that all my pics come up sideways if I had taken the pic while holding the phone portrait. Does this mean I have to take l my pics landscape style? I sure hope not. Including use my phone a lot to take pictures.

No you don't have to take the pictures in landscape mode in fact you can rotate the pictures pretty easily.
1. Open gallery and navigate to where the pictures are that you want to rotate.
2. Hit the physical menu button on your phone then chose the "Select item" option
3. Select the pictures you want to rotate
4. Then tap the options button in the top of the far right hand corner
5. Select "Rotate left" or "Rotate Right"
6. Repeat steps 3-5 if you want to rotate the pictures again (For example rotate the pictures another 90 degrees to the left or right)
Hope this helps .
That helps a ton. I knew that I could rotate them in gallery. The weird thing is that they are the correct way in the gallery. But when I open wall paper wizardrii the ones that I took are all on their sides.
I appreciate your help.

Try going into gallery without accessing the wallpaper wizard first, then finding the correctly rotated picture you want and selecting the "Set picture as" option, then selecting either "Home screen wallpaper" or Home and lock screens" or "Lock screen wallpaper".

What are you miss from TouchWiz on AOSP type ROM?

I'm missing "Smart Stay" function, custom ringtone for group of contact and one-click blocking of LED notification + disable notification of calls and messages.
Question is simple.CAMERA!
Camera, air view, that's about it. Most other things you can get third party apps for to be honest but not as good as native implementation.

I don't have problem with camera in AOSP. I didn't use Air view, so I don't miss it
But custom ringtone for group of contact I'm missing very, very much
Dunno how it hasn't been mentioned already but s view functionality. I miss being able to swipe to answer calls etc WITHOUT having to open the case
Air view, smart stay & s view features are things I miss from touchwiz :crying:
Smart Stay, Camera, Music Player and believe me or not, Samsung Keyboard.

Camera modes and S Translator.
Camera.
AOSP camera interface is horrible and doesn't work as well as the stock camera, auto focus is a bit slow, on touch to focus with hdr, hdr mode is usually broken and there is no hdr video mode.

Camera(auto night detection ) and exfat support
air view/gestures , smart stay and camera

Camera, s view, air view .....need to use all sensors lol....

Slide to call or send SMS is very useful too. Direct call when you get phone to your ear is too very good
But AOSP is very clean, smooth and with good battery life, so I'm staying there

Annoying problem in photos after taking pic

If I take a pic in landscape mode with stock camera app then swipe to the left to view the image in photos it immediately rotates the view and forces me out of landscape view. If I exit then go back to photos it displays normally this only happens when swiping to photos from the camera. Minor issue but pretty annoying when I want to quickly review a pic I just took. I can't find any obvious settings in camera or photos. Any ideas? Should/can I make it use gallery app for this maybe?

Burst photos treated as one?

Can somebody check this out for me?
When I take a burst of photos with the built in app, when reviewing the burst, I can scroll through all the photos. But, in my photo list it shows as one and shares as one photo (the main one).
I see no options in or outside of the burst to save all photos.

I use the HTC gallery and when I open up the burst shot all images are separated as individual pics. But I also see no way to separate them in Google photo app

I found it by searching apk mirror HTC gallery. I'm using gallery version 9.51.755029 download and install from your internal storage
Am I the only one taking bursts?
Sent from my 2PZC5 using Tapatalk
With Google Photos, I can only share the pic designated as the main photo (the thumbnail with the white dot on top). Can't figure out how to split the burst shots separately.
With HTC Gallery v.9.51.744639, the burst shots are automatically separated.
