Hello,
Just got my Motorola XOOM and found strange bug. Please check somebody could you upload photos from your galary to Picasa web albums directly from Galary apk?
I tried to reboot, factory reset, clear chach, but nothing helps me
I can't seem to do it on verizom xoom

Thread moved to general. This does not belong in development by any stretch of the imagination.
Just tried it again and I uploaded without issue. Is your picasa pics syncing to your gallery? Also when you try to upload them are you clicking on the share option.

Yes I could see my albums from Picasa, but I couldn't upload photos from Gallery to Picasa. It shows "fail to retrieve account information".
Hi
As the title saids, how can I made pictures in people app better?
They look nice when you see all contact thumbnail, but when I open single contact
or making a call they look terrible, I can see every pixel.
Is there any easy way to fix this, other than uploading hires photo of every single contact one-by-one?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-4.0.html
Large photos
Android now supports high resolution photos for contacts. Now, when you push a photo into a contact record, the system processes it into both a 96x96 thumbnail (as it has previously) and a 256x256 "display photo" that's stored in a new file-based photo store (the exact dimensions that the system chooses may vary in the future). You can add a large photo to a contact by putting a large photo in the usual PHOTO column of a data row, which the system will then process into the appropriate thumbnail and display photo records.
EDIT:
FINALLY
a great app that fix resolution of contacts, haxsync, great, brilliant little app, uses facebook pictures

You would have to change as the ones Gmail saves on the server are low resolution.

I've tryed to change one contact picture on Gmail, I've put hires photo, but after sync, again its very low quality and ugly.
Same here!
Any solution to this?
My Galaxy S i9000 isnt on ICS yet, but i know this will bug me!
So as I understand:
To have a Hi-def contact image in the People app, we need to assign a new photo via our phones.
If we assign a photo via Gmail Contacts, we will end up with a low resolution image.
Thus this is not an Android issue, rather Google need to sort out the Contacts image function in Gmail

+1. i think google has to sort this out. maybe an option to choose HD image or low image.
Anyone find a solution to this? Only had my phone for one day and its already bugging me.
Same here.... Looking for a fix. I uploaded my own pic, but I DO NOT want to do this for each contact.
CSI enhance! But, other than that, there's no automatic way.
The contact images from Google+ are hi-res, however.
When I put manually hires pictures, after google sync, and installing other rom (also ics) and then restore contacts,again over google - they go back to low quality..

Yup. Notice that after ROM installs, the pictures get pixelated.
You know what i dont get? How does this not get noticed during testing? It seems everyone has this problem...no idea why its happening though
If that's how it was made, its not really a problem to them lol I use Ringo pro for my contacts and it uses higher quality pictures

I think they did notice it during testing. But the Android team is (probably) not the same as the Gmail team. This requires changes in Gmail, but they can't just go over there and say "fix this".
I do hope Google is working on this. I noticed it during the ICS introduction from Google as well: when they demonstrated the People app you could see a pictures of a seahorse that was low-res...
Meh, this doesn't look good: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=6b0562c425cc1f5d&hl=en . It's a post from a Google Empleyee who says they'll look into the problem. That was posted in november 2009
ICS is officially out, but still they are fuzzy :S
I experienced this issue from the very first day of my smartphone life. And google has not fixed it yet.
There are several other minor bugs that were not fixed since Eclair don't know why but how could google not know about those obvious issue and not fixing it...
try installing g+ app and then your contacts should receive better hi res pictures. Of course only the ones that have g plus as well.
I still can not belive how can they do something like this.
Every time someone is calling I see those pixels all over the screen :S
FINALY

But haxsync is not able to do custom links with your contacts. So if a contact in your Facebook does not have the exactly same name in your address book it does not work. My contacts do look a bit messy because of that app now...

I've switched off google photo sync, but now I am unable to delete photos from Gallery that were synced before.
Is there any way to do that ?

Hi,
I had this problem, too
I turn off the sync
And than I have cleared the Data of the gallery app
So all synced pics were deleted, but you cannot remove single photos with the gallery :crying:
How do I clear the queue? I've taken a whole load of photos today and I've deleted them from my phone but the G+ Photos app says they are all queued up waiting for wifi. I've tried clearing cache.
Thanks
Auto backup Queue

I had the same problem.
What I do now though is auto back up to dropbox. Does not queue or anything like that, works flawlessly. Then I move the photos to google drive where there's much more cloud storage than my dropbox. It's a bit of a long way to go about things, but it works for me.
I hope it will work out for you as well.

Although it says queued, once you get to WiFi it will realise there's nothing to backup and reset that count. I agree, it's a little annoying... but nothing more.
Something really strange happened to my photos app. In all other Google apps (G+, Drive,Hangouts etc.) on the left side my avatar and the backround from G+ is shown, only in the photos app only the backround is seen, no avatar. Attached screenshot of photos and google+.
I have un/reinstalled and updated to the latest app, cleaned cache and app data, detached the device from the google account and back and changed avatar and background several times. It´s changing in all apps, only in photos just the backround changes and no avatar picture is shown.
I realized that in all other apps the gmail adress and the G+ name is shown, in Photos only the gmail adress.
So i´m running out of ideas. Someone who has the same behaviour or has an idea what to do?
It´s not a big deal but it´s annoying not to be able to fix it.
Thx for every idea.

In my case the avatar picture was shown again after several weeks without any recognizable cause.
