I took a picture using the "Drama" mode, of my grand daughter, and it turned out great. Luckily I copied it to the computer that day. After a couple of days, I went to look at the Pix on the phone, and the bottom half is blanked out with a green background. The thumbnail looks correct, but when I use a program to look at the pix it comes up with the bottom half that way. I have used several programs i.e. Gallery, QuickPic and others.
Anyone know what is or has happened to the pix on the phone? Any help is appreciated.
All of my drama mode photos look like this

Sorry about that. Its Friday. In all seriousness, are you saving the photos to an external SD card? Using a custom ROM? These could both be contributing factors.

Also, is it only on the phone you see the drama shots like that? If you pull the photo off the phone now does it look that way on the computer? I concur with the request for more details about your phone setup (ROM, any mods, rooted, etc.)

It is going to the SD card, un rooted no ROM's and when I transfer it now to the computer it has the bottom half messed up. I am happy that I copied it off the phone to the computer the day after I took it and that picture is fine.
Really appreciate the ideas and help.

Since you're unrooted, there are fewer things that could be having an effect. I would try taking another drama shot and seeing if it's cut off right away. Change the camera storage option to internal storage instead of ext-sd, just in case the card is corrupt, and take another to test. You also may want to uninstall any apps that have a camera, gallery, or photo editing function.
Check your build number in Settings > About Phone. If you're not on the latest update (VRUAME7) you may want to update (if you have no intention of rooting.) The new build has camera and general under-the-hood fixes. Maybe something could help. If nothing else works, backup your personal items, and perform a factory reset.

Doing a few last things before I let this out into the wild. Until then I'm making the first post pretty.
Version 0.1 released!
Good to see some more chefs appearing after most of the old ones went over to nand. So, what distinguishes your build, specifically from Copenhagen's?

Data is working 95% flawlessly on PPP.
APN properly set for T-Mo
DNS info properly set for T-Mo and it's apps
used different firmware in a couple instances
NO ROBO VOICE CRAP
A few other small things, fully up to 1/24 CM7 is another point.
Overall this works better for me than copen's original did.
Why is the file extension .exe?
Uh, why is this an EXE?
Nevermind .exe, its just a 7-zip auto-extractor.

install and boot from magldr
i want to now how you install and boot from magldr im not really getting it
downloading now.. cant wait to try this bad boy
downloaded. starting up now. will post with any errors.
This is one of the fastest Android systems I've used. It scores 1670 on Quadrant. Ive had tested others which score higher (into the 2k range), but this one just seems sooo much quicker. Only thing I've found that I don't like is that some apps dont fill the screen(the slidelock screen, pandora, speed test). I am not used to such a small dpi and having a case on the phone makes it hard to drag down the notification bar, but that may be from my sausage fingers. Also, I cant seem to be able to pin an app shortcut onto the desktop with a long press. Doesnt seem to be an option for it like other roms I've tried. But so far I am liking it, but it will take some time to get used to.
Edit: I figured out how to drop an app on the desktop. Silly me. Longpress on the app from the menu and simply drop it onto the homescreen. So much easier!!!!!!!!!!
Will give it a spin
Alright glad to see some gb hitting the threads especially on sd --I am running cope's now will give this one a try downloading now its late will work on it tomorrow Thanks for the work
I have installed on my EU HD2 but how to make mobile data working?
Tnx for the build!
Just been playing around a bit on the latest. Incorporated copenhagens fix for su....but I'm gonna give things another go around seeing about getting it perfect....kinda a workaround at the moment.
T-Mobile US users will likely be the only ones capable of using my builds as stated before. Data is working flawlessly in this build.
Tomorrows update will include at least the such fix, Facebook added back in, possible progress towards kineto , and who knows what else.....

Hello,
westerday J install cyanogen mod7 2.3.1 (but bug sms), this morning install this ROM but data not working. SFR in french. Why?
Thankyou.
My Streak used to take very good photos which came out natively at 2592x1944 pixels, around 300kb in size. But suddenly that has changed and now photos are only 640 x 480 pxls and about 80kb. I've made no changes nor can I find any means of returning to the higher quality. Can anyone shed any light, please?
When using the camera there are settings for this. I am on my IPAD so i cannot provide instructions. Maybe later when I am on the phone.
Hi,
There is a strip of very small settings buttons down the left hand side of the viewfinder area, touch the top one and a scrollable box comes up, somewhere in there are the resolotion settings. Make sure you check the superfine option, then pick 5MP option.
The buttons are really fiddly, it takes me a couple of tries to get the settings menu up.
Hope this fixes your problem.
The pics I take with my streak are usually around 800MB

Not on mine I'm afraid! There are five buttons on the right side (brightness/contrast, store location, white balance, flash mode and zoom), but none whatsoever on the left side???
I remeber that being the case before the Froyo update. Are you on 2.2?

Yes, I am. And I had high quality photos both before and after updating to 2.2. It's only recently that this has happened and I can't think what I must have done to have caused it, nor can I find any resolve. The last thing I want to do is a cold reset, so if anyone can suggest how I might be able to reinstall just the camera app, perhaps?

HI AidanBell,
the option to set the quality of the camera is just below the brightness and contrast option.
Once you click on it just scroll it and you will find it.
Thank you so much. At first I still couldn't find it, but eventually I realised that the brightness/contrast menu is scrollable - which is not in any way obvious nor have I ever known before! So of course scrolling down I've now finally found all the quality controls. So simple and yet so beautifully hidden! Thanks again to everyone who helped with this. Job done.
i would like to get rid of the contact pic when on the phone and in messaging. i dont have facebook installed so i have zero pics assigned to contacts. so what i get is the standard dude with a big smile. the same with messaging. i would rather not have the contact pic next to every single text.
i am running the latest aokp with nova. and i do not want to put in a full blown theme because i really like the one that came with it. i have seen a few topics that talked about phone apks and such but it seems like that too would take me away from the theme.
what can i do? thx.
Don't know how to do a whole batch but for each individual contact, you can Edit then tab on the pic then select remove picture.
i just tried it. that only works if there is a pic stored for the contact. what i get for options is take pic or choose from gallery.
thanx anyways and thx for the fast response
go through the other ICS ROMs. and find the one you want,(the message apps) theres bound to be one you find just as good bro. you can always extract just the messaging.apk (or converstations.apk) and move it over to SYSTEM/APPS on your phone, with a root explorer on R/W. rename your current messaging app to Messaging1 or something and keep it just in case you want to go back.
as far as i know theres no way of takeing off just the ICS Avatar Guy. hope i helped!

thats what i was afraid of. what i need to do.... is learn to code. not the easiest thing to do though when ur 37 and a legal mmj patient. seems like if i knew what i was doing... i could go in there and at least make the size of the thing smaller on the phone. it fills up half of my screen and is blown up so much it looks really pixelated.
thanx for telling me where the apks are located. i might just start diving in and see if i can screw it up.

You meant you want to remove the entire empty template?
yes
edit: trying to edit within es file explorer is impossible i guess. i can get into the apk and see all of the xml files... but there is no way to edit the margins and/or image size. ill keep hunting. might just start dloading roms like cgromo90 advised.
i just remember this being a non issue when using touchwiz. trying to get back to that while still keeping the badassedness that is aokp.
What about using a different messaging app out of Google Play? Or try the CM9 nightly.
CM9 has the same messaging apk
The messaging isn't as important as the phone.
The more I think.about it... the more I think I need to take a pic of something simple and just use it for all of my contacts. Or.just download a PNG of the android robot.
I looked in it for Sammy rom, but couldn't find a simple way of removing it.
Might have to dig into smali for that one.
this is ewhat i ended up doing. it got rid of the avatar and is much much better to look at. not perfect, but i guess i cant have my cake and eat it too.

When I add a direct dial shortcut to home screen, the contact photo appears with it. But soon after, with no apparent cause I can connect, the photo disappears. I can use apps, turn the screen on and off - no change. It almost seems it's related to time. It stays about 10 minutes and then it's gone. I know this sounds crazy.
I am using Go Launcher (new to it, having preferred Launcher Pro), so don't know if that's the problem.
Anyone else have this happen?

Ugggh! Another dark theme.
Juat kidding, my friend.
I re-added contact shortcuts with photos today a couple of hours ago, and they seemed to stay, but when I just checked, one has already disappeared (not the contact, just the photo - the photo is still attached when I go into contacts, just not the direct dial shortcut).
I'm thinking of doing a hard reset and starting fresh, not because of this one problem, but because I think it might be an indicator.
I bought the phone from a guy who only had it 3 months (perfect condition), and who told me he did a hard reset. And he took his SIM. AT&T set it up for my account, as I assumed it was restored to factory because of what he told me. Then when I went to add my photos, I discovered his were still there (seriously, Dude, do all men have their male body parts on their phones?).
So I think I should start totally fresh, and see if that fixes any of these little problems. Also, sound notifications and ringers are not always the same.
I of course have factory ROM, no rooting or flashing, and it is locked to AT&T.

No, not Facebook contacts. I don't even do Facebook. The inconsistency is what drives me crazy. Yesterday one out of 5 disappeared. I put it back on this morning, and all 5 are there for now.
It's a problem with Go Launcher. I uninstalled it fully, synced my Facebook pictures, synced Google so that it would save, and then reinstalled Go Launcher and set up my direct dial shortcuts again. Haven't had a problem since.
Is anyone else having this problem? For some reason, I have two folders called Camera and my pictures have been randomly going to one or the other rather than just one folder. Pretty annoying as I have to constantly shuffle back and forth to find some pictures.
My camera is set to save on my SD card as well.

i found that even when you have the camera set to store photos in the external sd card.. when you take burst shots.. it will still store them in the internal. i belive taking photos while video recording is the same as well.
Mine has done the something. On mine one folder was on the phone the other in the sdcard. I have my storage setting to sdcard as well. If you play around in the camera app you will notice that when changing some setting (for example burst mode) it will automatically change the storage back to the phone. This is so it can use the fast memory of the phone rather then the slower sdcard to keep up with all those pics. I'm pretty sure this is what's happening for you too.
Check with a file explorer, "my files" that came with the phone will work, and see if you have pics on both the "sdcard" and "extsdcard". If so then that's what's happening.
You can also check while using you camera there is a little icon in the top right, I think it is. It looks like a small phone or sdcard depending on were it's going to save.

That's weird. I just checked and burst shot is the only one that goes to my phone but I don't even take burst shots...
This is confusing haha. Possible bug?
So you do have some pics on you sd and some in internal right?
If you have you some other app to take pics other than the stock camera, the directory it's saving those pics to could be different.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I think it has something to do with the speed of your microsd. Maybe if you get a higher class sd card, it'll start storing burst shots on your external sd. That's just a guess. The same thing happens on my phone, but I'll get a class 10 card eventually to try it out.

These new rules regarding where things are saved are definitely a little frustrating, because it's different and not as efficient and organized as it could be. My attachments from mms can't be automatically saved to extsd either from what I can see. I'm still in love with this phone though.
