Pictures distorted? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all I just got this phone about a week ago and one thing I notice is that alot of my previous pictures look distorted. There's alot of noise and some are discolored and not very clear. Im not talking about pictures I take with the phone im talking about pictures taken with other phones that are on my comp. Is this due to settings, or a glitch, pr is it just how the screen is? Thanks xda.

Try updating your firmware, could fix this issue. Probably just a problem with the gallery.

Im on 2.2.2 already and I ran a check for updates already, nothing came up. Btw pictures look the same in a third party gallery app as well as the stock gallery app.

MX Video Player

Anyone here have this installed and now having issues since the last update to this app?
I ask because I don't want to give bad feedback to the developer of the app is it's just me and specially since it's free...
Thanks for reading and posting

Update to anyone that may care send email to developer hope for a reply or that more people have the same issue to get a fix.

Maybe if you gave us a little more information as to what "issues" your having, someone can try to replicate them.
The issue im having is the following ever since the last update came out for this app about 3 days ago.
If I click on the video I want to see and it will show for a second and then the screen goes black. As if the screen times out. So then I have to click the power button to turn the screen on and see that the video is still running yet I only see it for about a second again before I'm kicked out and again screen goes black and I press the power button and unlock the screen again and after that hope the video is almost over or have to turn off the phone because it wont let me do nothing unless the video is done. Not even the captive buttons respond once the video is running. It's almost as if it was a force close but the thing is still running. Also I have tried same videos on the stock player and double twist and they play just fine no issues.
I have since removed the app till I hear from developer or see that the app has been updated. It's also a shame because I had just come put with a Pro version and was willing to buy but wanted to see what the update did before purchasing it.

The issue is absent in my experience. It seems to work fine. My phone is rooted though, that might have something to do with the permissions needed to keep the screen active; but i doubt it.
I assume you have the correct codec installed.
Maybe there is a glitch only when updating... I installed mine after the update so it was a clean install.
Are you streaming or playing the videos locally?

I'm using the right codec and the video is local on the 2 SD card those same videos worked fine before the update. Also I did try removing both app and codec and then redownloading to same old story of it not working. I do want to point out I'm not rooted ... But don't see how that would have anything to do if it use to work right before the last update...

Update:
Just got email from dev and he said the following
" did you use a brightness control utility? similar problem has been reported when display brightness is forcibly lowered."
I replied to him telling yes that I downloaded a Brightness Toggle Widget and had it said to 0% and after I got his email re DL the app and codec and now it's back to normal
Anyways i want to thank the dev of the app and anyone that try to help out. Also hope this helped anyone and let's support great apps like this one and many more with great developers that reply back and don't just see you as a quick $.

Instagram on ics

Can anyone modify the ics apk to work on any of our leaks? Some dev said the reason it freezes is because the EGL's get too high or something... Please don't flame, just asking

Instagram works fine for me on ICS also, but the problem lies in uploading a picture and applying a filter. It locks up the phone and causes a reboot.
Facebook/microsoft xonspiracy to not let facebook work with new google os lol...all im saying

Nope. Once you get to the filters section it locks up.

Once again, browsing on Instagram works perfectly fine. Try posting a picture. Even DesignGears said that the new leak doesn't fix the freezing problem so I doubt you're right.
Well just browsing is no good, i browse, comment, and like from the PC program. Easier viewing in a grid instead of one by one phone scroll up
I only use my phone to upload pics, since that's not possible from a PC yet
Right so can anyone mod the app to work with out freezing the phone?

Not working for me either but I can easily overlook that one of very few issues with ics. Instagram is overrated anyway. I certainly wouldn't let it hold me back from the latest and greatest OS on the planet.

They just released an update and the filters work fine now.
They addressed it in the "What's new" section too
Edit:
still has some issues.
Posting from gallery results in a black picture. It seems a little laggy, but at least it hasn't crashed on me yet.

1+ posting from the gallery results in you uploading a black pic, haven't taken a pic with the instagram camera yet, but according to your screenshot that works fine....
hopefully another minor update will solve the remaining issues.
I downloaded the new update and tried to upload a picture to see if it works but it rebooted my phone

Yes, it seems to work whenever it wants. I still didn't get a crash yet, but I do get some flickering and lag.
Iphony, yes, atleast it seems to be going in the right direction.

[Q] slow camera

Hi, I've been using a number of ics roms since it was released and am currently on wanam v 12. I was wondering if anyone else has had a very slow response from the stock camera since moving to ics, never had any problems with gingerbread. The camera takes a picture normally but takes several seconds to finally respond and able to take another picture. Any advice?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Probably not the advice you're looking for, but try miui rom, specifically cmiui. The camera is really nippy on that one.
It may be a CM9 camera apk that's installed in cmiui. You could see if you could track down the apk on its own if you don't want to flash another rom.
And I know what you mean, every ics rom has given me bad lag with taking pics.

The GS2 doesn't have zero-shutter lag, but I am not experiencing a few seconds worth of lag as you are.
Try clearing data in App Info, which will hopefully fix your issue.
Try alternative cameras on the Play Store, namely Camera ICS.
Report back and tell me if that fixes anything.
Hey thanks for the advice! I cleared data on the app and is way faster now.

(Q)about my camera if its normal or defectivr

Is this normal? I tried talking to rogers where i got the phone from and they said its really like that. It only happens whenever i take a picture with lights on the background. Its really annoying. I tried every settings and still no luck.
