Google Contacts low resolution - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know this is a current issue and there is no apparent solution on google side. Is there any other app that backs up my contacts with high resolution pictures?
It's a PITA to restore all my contacts pictures one by one after every flash.

Maybe if you install the APK it works
About the slowy thing... Instagram was always a bit slow when loading profiles and stuff... I think that all I can say is deal with it....

I don't think so. The app does not work in CM9 AFAIK.

clear cache or reinstall the app.
Its a know issue for Instagram to load slowly. According to what I've heard, they are working on making the app better and developing it according to the Android Design Guidelines. All we can do is wait.
Clear instagram cache and data.. works fine for me..

Black border on the screen

Hi,
Today when i check my phone the display was not filling the entire screen. there seems to be a black border.. .i.e the display is 1 mm shorter than the actual screen size.... i dont think it was there before today... but may be i dint notice...
can u guys confirm if u too have the same kinda display ?
erhm,yes,same here.
So, we cause a triple murder before breakfast, start a race war before dinner - that's uh, that's a pretty good day.
Are you getting this in all the apps and even on the homescreen as well? If your not getting it.. then I would suffice that it is just that app that your running now that might not be optimized completely on the screen grids/borders of your Note.
Now if your getting this as well in all of your apps including the homescreen/lockscreen.. My second question then would be... are you on stock ICS ROM or on a custom one?
Some custom ROMS have some light blue border that is faintly visible when your trying to look at it. Nothing of a big deal though (to me in particular) as I know this is just a ROM (and therefore a software) issue and not on the hardware one (which would give me much more of a headache if that really happens)

I have changed from note core to speed mod and vice versa... still no go... In fact I have also tried a nandroid backup of what I thought when it was working fine... Still the same... I have tried to wipe both caches as well.

The circular one was for persons, so I think it either focuses twice, or tags the face, or whatever. There usually is a quite normal focus

And also hangs on taking pic
Video recording is also hanging like in CM10
Confirm does anyone has also this problem ?
to take next picture, change camera to front cam, then switch again to back cam

Slow camera

Hi! Thank you for reading.
I've noticed a considerable amount of lag or slowlyness when using the camera of my I9070. I takes long to open the application plus it takes long to shoot the photo... for a cell phone that is faster than iPhone 4 I'd say that this is weird. I already sent the phone to warranty but they returned it with no solution or issue, they claim that this is the way the phone works.
What do you think? Do you all have this same issue?

Hi thank you for replying.
I've already rooted and installed JetMod 3.2, can you point me in the direction on how to change the kernel. I'm not an expert on terminology so maybe I already did this... but you tell me

I'd try also setting the ISO for ISO400, when I still was using GB it made my camera usable, but if you update to JB it got really faster there.

the reason for ur camera shoot delay is because of AUTOFOCUS it has to focus on the image first(take 2 sec) then capture...so if u switch it off,photos will be taken fast but unclear! your choice!

I have rooted,overclocked,custom launcher etc but STILL it feels laggy, how can i solve the problem? i have latest jellybean 4.3
Try doing a clean install of 4.3 and using a different kernel.

I personally use M-Kernel. But my two favorite kernels are M-Kernel and FrancoKernel. Both can be found in the Nexus 7 Original Development section.
You should install CM 10.1.2.
Everything seems to work and my Nexus 7 is faster than ever. I was running Paranoid Android and it was laggy as hell.

Maybe you have filled the SD card too much. When the nexus has very low free space, it slows down significantly.

Disable Halo.
If you're running stock 4.3, disable Google currents. This is a tried and tested fix that should fix any choppiness.
If the problem still persists, follow what veeman said and try using other kernels

Ok, thanks. It helped a bit but is it still possible to smooth it out more? or maybe it's just the hardware now.

You could try running an app like Forever Gone SD card cleaner. And using Greenify to hibernate apps that are running in the background might help.

Just got a first gen 32gb model running 4.3 and it's just fine. I did go into Developer Options and turn off those silly 1x animation things to "off".
Might want to give that a try.

Double tap and drag it to the X at the top. Halo is still buggy on 4.3.
If you have hundreds of apps installed, use Greenify. Sorry, root is req.

Isn't this generally the same with all devices?
For example, completely fill up your computer's hard drive and test how laggy it is compared to when it had nothing but the OS installed.
