Photo viewing - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just would like to confirm one thing:
After u took photo in landscape then view it through gallery again in landscape position, does d photo fill d whole screen? Or with both left and right side fill with black bar? I meant without zooming or whatever.....just view original.

Mine would view in landscape mode, but there're still 2 small black bars on sides. It's different than portrait mode.

Is your photo taken in landscape format? If your photo is taken in portrait format and view in vertical position, u will see two black bar on top and bottom, am I right?

That's correct, I think because of the menu option is hidden away when you don't use it.

So, I guess it's normal and my phone is not having any problem ;-)

jpg files open in album viewer?

So I sent myself a jpg file and tried to open it on my phone. It opened in the photo album viewer evey time. It opened the whole album, and showed the thumbnail of all the pictures. If I clicked on this jpg file, it opened in the album's picture viewer (the one from the camera's photo album (the HTC one, says Camera Shots on the top, Album, and Menu at the bottom).
I could not figure out how to open it in anything else, and this particular file was not working out when trying to view it in that HTC album (it put it in landscape, and it was too small to read). It was actually a screen shot from my PC with some item numbers and stuff from a retailer's website, and I was about to go purchase said items.
I am using the NATF 5 AT&T Loaded Final ROM on my Tilt.
Anyone know a work around for this? Do I need to install some 3rd party jpg viewer or something? And if I do that, will it interfere with the HTC Album viewer?
couldn't you have zoomed in to see the picture? anyways install the attached file and then click and hold on the file then click 'Open With Program' choose 'Pictures and Videos' or whatever app you want to associate jpg files with and then check 'Associate selected Program with this file type' It should open
I can't see any way to zoom in with this album viewer. Maybe what I need to do is find another jpeg viewer.
its a gesture you move your finger in a full clock-wise circle on the image to zoom in
a full counter-clockwise circle zooms out
a half clock-wise circle rotates the picture clockwise 90 degrees
a half counter-clockwise circle rotates the picture counter-clockwise 90 degrees

Thank you, that did the trick! Got it rotated back to portrait, and zoomed in enough to read it.
That really helps me out, thanks a million!

Phone Orientation in Photo Album

Has anyone else noticed that when viewing pictures in the Album application in TF3D2, that the Gsensor appears to have no effect? Landscape pics appear in Landscape mode, no matter how you hold the phone, upright or sideways, and portrait pics appear in Portrait mode even if you've tilted your phone sideways.
Or is it just me? It's a bit of a pain if you're holding your phone in one hand and want to see all your pics the right way up!
(I'm not referring to slideshows, by the way)
This is strange, I've noticed it to. I'd like the photo album to auto rotate - any tweaks that anyone can suggest?
And even Gyrator doesn't rotate when viewing a picture. When i'm viewing the whole set of pictures, it works, but as soon as i select one, it doesn't. Strange...
Just wondering, how is the device to know what the bottom of the picture is? The picture could have been taken landscape or portrait, depending on how you held the device when you made it. IMO it's the best solution to just display the picture best fit on the screen...

The device does know. In the tab for pictures, it displays all pictures in their right aspects. As it also does in the gallery. Just not when you click on the picture to bring it up.

You're right, it does! I never noticed that. Clever..

It must be stored in the file somewhere...
...anyway, getting back to the point. The Gsensor has absolutely no effect when viewing pictures. I cannot hold my phone upright and view a landscape image. This seems wrong to me - I'm 100% sure my old Touch Pro used the Gsensor to determine which way to display your pics - this seems like a big step backwards!
Mind you, it'll all be moot in September when Winmo 6.5 comes out - TF3D will be pretty much redundant :O)
any program that can help on photos rotation? thanks.
i get the same problem
i have used gyrator2 but it just can rotate the interface and 180 deg

i tried gyrator as well and it doesn't work maybe i dont know how to set it
Dosen't the Photoalbum rotate itself?I think it rotates but lets the pictures in their original position/rotation.
The buttons rotate, right? The old photoalbum did a better job^^
I found it to be a very annoying feature on the diamond1.
Sometimes you just want to see a pictuer from another angel, and the autorotation made that impossible.

Yes. The Exif information of the pictures contains generally the Focal length, shutter speed, iso, date & time, sometimes GPS coordinates (can be added later with software, and some new camera include GPS), and of course orientation of the picture : landscape or portrait. It stores even if it was 180° rotated in portrait or landscape.

Display of text has banding?

Has anyone ever noticed that when holding the screen in portrait mode, while viewing small black letters on a full white background, there is some gray banding behind the text? This is not the case when I make a screenshot with shootMe, and view it on my pc.
I will upload a file as soon as I can, to show what I mean. I don't know yet if this is a hw or sw error. I am using cyanogenmod 5.0.5.3 btw. Do not know whether or not it occurs on the stock ROM.
See hurricane-disco.nl/text.jpg for an image that does not show correctly.
See hurricane-disco.nl/textphoto.jpg for a photo of the actual image on my N1. Depending on the rest of the screen, there is more or less 'noise' in a row of pixels. When I turn the phone 90 degrees, I don't have this issue, but might come up with an image which does have the problem and will post it here then.

Camera orientation

If I take a picture in landscape mode,in front of me, when viewed, it shows correctly when holding phone in landscape. But when I take a picture of something on the floor still holding phone in landscape, I can only view it full length in portrait. I need to rotate it to view as intended.
Have I got some settings wrong? Anyone with an idea as to why this happening please?
Regards,

Black and white photos/videos except one object or colour

Hey guys, how to shoot/take video of scene where everything is black except one object or one colour?
try AI colour Mode
I don't know if this is what you mean but one way to achieve such effect is to take picture in aperture mode then view it and in the upper right corner of the picture there will be small lense icon, touch it and from the filter at the bottom pick mono filter which should desaturate the background.
