I want to introduce my new image editor bevore I will release it on F-Droid and Play Store. The app is fully Open Source. And needs no unnecessary permissions (only write on storage to save the edited pictures). It's lightweight (< 5 mb), clean, easy to use and nice looking.
Features:
adjustments: brightness, gamma, saturation, ...
filter: sepia, monochrome, invert, poster, comic, ...
add text: add, resize and rote text
crop: crop, rotate or flip the image
Privacy:
permissions: only "read and write on sd-card"
dependencies: no Google dependencies
sending user data: no user data will be collected and send to any other servers.
"FOSS Image Editor" doesn't have permission to use the internet
To achieve this, I'm using several libraries (see in the About --> license dialog). I will only add new features, when it doesn't make to much trouble. In the best case there's a library to achieve the implementation of new features. So please test "FOSS Image Editor" and give your feedback. The Open Source Community is depending on users, who share their experience.
Changelog:
### v 0.3:
- new: custom crop
- new: hide app icon from launcher
### v 0.2:
- new: warning when overwriting original image
- new: changelog and license file on Github
- updated: help dialog
- improved: quality of saved pictures
- fix: remain original file extension
Regards

Thank you. This is indeed simple, clean, and very useful.
Would you consider supporting PNG ? Now they can be read and imported, but the output of the edited image is JPG.

Thanks for the feedback. At the moment I'm on vacation, but I will look when I'm back home.:highfive:
Warning - critical bug:
If you save a picture at the moment, it will be saved only in low resolution. So don't overwrite your original pictures. I'm on vacation so it will take a while until I can look into the issue. I updated the OP.
Some of my holiday pictures have now a size of ~ 150 kb. Therefore they had a size > 2 mb.
Update v 0.2
The saving issue is now solved. Thanks for your patience. Download in the first post.
Changelog v 0.2:
- new: warning when overwriting original image

- updated: help dialog

It seems, that the image you want to open isn't scanned by the media scanner. Here a few questions:
This happens always, when you try to load an image via the build in menu?
With every image?
Dies it also happen, when you "share" the same picture to the editor?
Does rebooting the phone solve the issue?

Thanks for the quick reply. So, answering every question.
# Yes, always, any image, jpg and png, any path, opening from the menu.
# Yes, also shared from another application, file manager or image viewer.
# Working with the smartphone and it's my internet connection right now with hotspot for several devices, so I can't restart it. I triggered just a media provider restart if that was the purpose of your question, but did not change anything.
Edit : There's one one way it will not crash. If I pick using Android's default file picker ( the one part of the OS, DocumentsUI ), then it works.
Edit 2 : It works with Ghost Commander, too. So I guess it works depending on the application. Problems with FX file manager for instance and Simple Mobile's Gallery.
Feature request: Could you add a freeform draw option? It would really come in handy.
Thanks

When sharing from Simple Mobile's Gallery ( any image, any path ) there is no crash but I always get a 'Could not load image' error in the editor. In the log I only see this :
Code:
System.err
at de.aosd.fossimageeditor.MainActivity.handleImage(MainActivity.java:367)
... I tried with Android 8.1 and 7.1.2. Anyway, the editor itself works fine. I wouldn't worry about supporting every possible file manager and gallery application out there.
Could 2:3 / 3:2 ratio be added to the crop options ?
Or alternatively / in addition, be able to specify pixels in width and height ourselves, maybe. With the free option is guesswork now.

At the moment I'm working on my browser. But the alternative suggestion sounds good. I'll implement it. At Monday school starts again (with a lot to do and the next vacation will be at Christmas). So if I forget it, please remind me.

Thank you for this version. I have been testing and see two issues consistently repeating.
# The cropped images are degraded, noticeably, in quality, compared to the originals. ( Is this the same bug that happened on an older version, maybe ? )
# The crop specifying values doesn't really respect the values given. I try, say a fixed 720 pixels cut for instance, but get 913 pixels ( or some other random number ) in the exported crop.
I've tested both jpg and png.
Hi, some questions:
Is It possible
- determine jpg compression rate when saving an an image?
- determine wether to keep/change/delete EXIF-data when saving an image?

I added a video.
Is there any feedback ?
Tried it... doesn't recognise CBZ or CBR the two most common net comic formats
I'll unzip/unrar them and try again.
It definitely needs CBZ and CBR support.
Sent from my Kindle Fire using xda premium
You are right. I will add support of cbz and cbr.
What about performance ?
Is it smooth (depending of your phone or tablet) ?
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards.
Seems super-smooth. Will be happy to use it if you can add the CBR/Z support and keep it running as nice!
Although I am running on a Samsung Galaxy SII running CheckROM RevoHD v4 and the excellent DarkKnight v2.4.3 kernel... so most things run pretty smooth!
I added both file support : .cbz and .cbr.
Cbz (zip) is not cpu consuming so app is still smooth.
About Cbr (rar), it's no as smooth as before but still usable.
Don't hesitate to give a feedback.
Thanks !
I added PDF file support.
So now the list of supported format is :
JPG
PNG

Thanks, gonna try out my new Walking Dead Comics!
Thanks for the link! This works great on the Kindle Fire. The scrolling is kind of annoying at times, but it hasn't failed to open any file I've thrown at it yet. Is there an option to tap to turn pages instead of scrolling? If there is, I can't find it. If there isn't, there should be. Other than that this is a great comics viewer. Great job!

Thanks onestoploser for your feedback.
For now, there is no option to go next page (only by scrolling).
I will add an option for this.

Sometimes it seems to scroll too far, like into the next page after the one I'm going to. Setting the velocity speed to none helps, but still happens on occasion. That's why I was wondering about a tap to turn the page option. Like I said though, this is a great app!

Native Google contacts app uses a strangely lower resolution (96x96px).
This was normal in the firsts Android versions.
The new phones includes a large amount of memory and a large screens, and also, the new Android version (Ice Cream Sandwitch) predisposes to a better user experience.
But, by default, the contact photos stored in Android 4.0 uses the older resolution (96x96px), and the photo contacts appears pixelated.
With this app you can make a bulk update of your contact photos to a increased resolution (256x256px) that's shows much better in your new devices.
Also, in older devices, that aren't running ICS, the app allows to make a bulk photo contacts update and increase the resolution to the device max supported size.
Finally, if you have rooted your device, you can increase the size of the contact photos to 400x400px (or more). That sounds good in devices with a large screen, like Galaxy Note.
Instructions
1) Place the desired contact photos (in PNG or JPG format) in a folder of your sdcard. I recommend to use square photos.
2) Open the app
3) Click settings and configure the sources folder to the stored photos folder
4) Go main window in the app
5) Select the photos that you want to update
6) Click the update photos button (the photos was automatically resized to the max resolution supported by the device).
* If you want to use photos greater than the maximum supported device size, you need to be rooted. If you're rooted, go
settings, check the "Use HD photos" checkbox then apply the desired photos.
Please, if you have troubles or issues, contact with the developers via email or at the XDA thread.
Requirements
For real HD photos you need to be rooted and, in stock ROMs, you need to install busybox (available in Play Store).

Known problems
In Gingerbread devices the HD real photos (bigger than 256x256px) isn't supported
Weird Google hasn't come with an update on this low res problem. It's been known for years. Now even with HD screen resolutions Google doesn't fix this :-(
I use a similar solution to yours. I use the internal Phone book in my Galaxy S2 to create duplicate contacts with only a single high res image. After this I merge the contacts using settings with my GMail contacts, setting the high res picture as default profile.
This causes two problems though. One, it doesn't change anything on my Google contacts so it only works on my phone. Second, you have to apply this trick every time you get a new phone.
Would be nice if your application could do something similar but with some sort of simple import/export function. But I'm afraid that's not that simple, right?
I love the idea, but get "At least one of the selected photos can't be applied" when trying to apply. Image is 300px in height, named the same as the contact and in .png format.
Am I doing something obviously wrong?

your're right.
the operation only works in the phone.
the contact photo in google servers are unchanged,
but the (phone) photo was no changed when you sync, only if you wipe the data in the device.

hi,
the filename (without the extension) of any photo is the display name for two or more contacts (correct me if I wrong)
You are quite correct, it was a contact that had been joined - tried it on an un-joined contact and it worked like a charm!
Thanks for a good app and great help.

have you stored png's in the selected folder?
Love the idea.
But the app FC's every time i try to apply pictures...
i'm on SG Note, rom Stunner 1.4.26.1 (android 4.0.4), pictures stored as png's, appropriate folder setup in settings. does that irrespective of whether i apply a batch or single contact.

IMPORTANT: after an update, be sure to turn on the app, as Play Store turs it off!
Do you hate when iPhoto won't show the pictures you shot with your Android device, but it works fine with your friend's HTC Sense device? Why is that?!?
That's simply because Google's camera does not comply with the DCIM standard, used by every other Digital Camera in the world (HTC Sense does it!) and properly recognized by iPhoto.
With this app, your Android device will be able to comply and iPhoto will display and import your pictures.
FEATURES:
- Hassle free "Configure once and forget forever!"
- Works with any picture taking app, not just the stock Android Camera!
- "Automagic" background moving of newly taken shots into the proper folder. No need to open the app each time you connect to iPhoto.
- Fully DCIM compliant and fully Android MediaServer compliant (pictures will not vanish from the Gallery).
- If you don't feel like moving, you can select to copy the pictures (but don't forget to check your free space!)
- ON/OFF switch to quickly enable or disable the app.
- Supported picture format: JPG, JPEG, PNG.
- Supported movie format: 3GP, M4A, M4V, MOV.
- Supports Windows, Linux and Mac OS X hosts (don't worry about Thumbds.db, ._IMG0001.jpg files and so on!)
ADVANCED FEATURES (which require a once-in-a-lifetime donation):
- Multiple folder monitoring: if you use Third Party apps (Camera MS, ICS Camera, ...) you can move/copy their pictures as well! Just add their folder to the monitored list.
For more information about the DCIM standard: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_rule_for_Camera_File_system
DOWNLOADS
The app is available for free on Google Play Store.

Cool! Will install as soon as it's up.
Also, is there any way to transform photos that are already taken (on HTC One X but using CM10) so that they conform to the standards?

Sure: long press on the directory and if the directory isn't empty, you'll see "Move all pictures to DCIM" and "Copy all pictures to DCIM".
If you have a lot of pictures it will take some time (and you may get the "App is not responding" message), just give it some time and it will complete its job. In future releases I'll make it so you won't get the "App is not responding" message but I felt it was useless to delay the app further for such a silly "feature".
If you like the app, rate it please.
If you need help, post here.
Gonna try as soon as I can

Yes, MP4 support will be added in 1.1, coming tonight (GMT+2).
New features:
- Support for MP4 files
- Homescreen widget to quickly turn service ON/OFF and quickly know if it's been turned off by Play Store after an update
2012-08-28 - 1.1
- Added support for MP4 movies.
- Added Homescreen Widget to quickly toggle the app ON/OFF (1x1, 2x1) and display the current number of pictures and movies processed by the app (2x1 only).
I hope you'll like the widgets, the icon should be self explanatory. The number (only available in the 2x1 widget, so people can have a toggle-only-widget) is the count of pictures and movies that the app moved. So you can keep an eye on it increasing when you shoot a picture!
I tried them on a HDPI (HTC Desire Z) and a LDPI (Samsung Galaxy Mini) devices. They should look fine on other screen sizes as well, both portrait and landscape. :fingers-crossed:
hi hrk,
just wanna ask..
sorry for being noob :silly:..
what is the benefit actually by using it on Galaxy mini??
and what is iPhoto??
If you deal with a lot of photos, then this app helps if your phone doesn't sort the photos according to the DCIM standard. I don't own any Samsung devices, so no idea how they arrange the folders, directories, name, etc.
iPhoto is a photo editing software for Mac and iOS.
Btw, I've helped translated the program to Malay. Had a lot of fun too. Thankies~

Put the widget in your homescreen and check its status (grey = off, white + light = on).

Lockscreen Background ChangerSome month ago a friend of mine gave me the idea to dinamically change the Android lockscreen background image on the basis of different events. From this scratch idea I developed this app
It give you the power to dinamically change your lockscreen background image according to different events. At the moment it support:
change on battery charge value decreasing
change every fixed (but editable) amount of time
Some other events will be added soon :fingers-crossed:
Where to find
You can download the app on Google Play Store at
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.zenadroid.lckscrwpchngr
How it works
The app use both user images and special image packages called ThemePack. ThemePack can be downloaded from market (both free and paid) and will simplify the process to obtain background images.
Use custom images
If you want to use you images, please keep in mind every modality use a different set of images. I will give you a quite detailed description below.
• Change background on battery charge value changes
This mode use a set of 20 images in .png format. For better result I suggest to use all resolution for all images.
Background image will be changed every 5% of battery charge.
You must rename your images in this way:
100% → 100.png
95% → 095.png
90% → 090.png
...
10% → 010.png
5% → 005.png
NOTE: 0% is not used
All images must be grouped into a folder. You must put this folder into the 'battery mode' folder (you can get it path in the information when you run the app)
• Change background every fixed amount of time
This mode use some images wich will be switched one by one after the time interval you set. To work this mode need at least a folder with inside at least one .png image (obvioulsy I suggest more than one image or this mode is not so useful :laugh: )
Screenshoot
Here I post some example of the changes made with mode set on "battery charge value":
Additional Information
This app was tested but might be some errors yet.
The changer work using a work-around wich needs ROOT permissions and works fine on CyanogenMod ROMs. If you use different ROM and face some issues, please report them. I'll try to solve them as soon as possible

Oh, thanks for making this app!
It would be so great to let the user specify the path to a file to edit!
I mean, if you don't have read permissions for a folder, but can access a file inside it, that's the best way to go, I think.
What do you think?
Does the macro system have compatibility with ASM(ASseMbly) code? If not, could you add it?
