Not sure if I made myself clear so here is a screenshot, the phone is lying on a perfectly leveled surface
Anyone thinks it could be a hardware issue?

Contact picture grid

I remember seeing a post about removing the grids on contact pictures but I can no longer find the page. Anyone know how to do this?

Removing the contacts picture and re-adding it, usually works.

The reason the grid is there is for pictures with low resolution that are pulled from Google's contacts or Facebook. You could alternately set your own picture of the person to fix it.
They say it's because the picture is low resolution but it even even does it for high resolution pictures. If I flash a AOSP rom right now every single contact picture will re sync with the HQ picture I have stored in Google contacts. But on a sense Rom maybe 1 or 2 will re sync in HQ. I've even re added every contact on my phone with a local HQ pic which works as long as you don't flash another Rom cause once you do the grid will be back. It's definitely a Sense issue, I've spent a hour or more making sure all my contact pics are HQ but it makes no difference on a sense Rom.

Yea it seems to be a sense "feature" because all my contact pictures are HQ as well. The ones that are linked to Google plus accounts are high resolution and they still show with the grid.

First and foremost Thanks for this, i can confirm it works. Only question is; If this is a known issue, why isnt this fix implemented in the roms being cooked for our devices ? Would seem logical, wouldnt it ?

Seems to be a sporadic thing. I don't see this on my HQ photos.
Yea I do not have any grids on any of my FB linked contacts but my google one does have the grid.

Try going to settings application manager and clearing cache & app data and see if that helps

Same issues are happening over on the T-Mobile Note 3's also. My magazine randomly force closing. clearing cache and app data seems to help but then the problem comes back. I think the software on the N3 is not quite stable yet, give it a few updates before it's all good.
Cleared cache will report back later, so is this a common issue?

I tried deleting the APK's (by the way there are two APK's for this app) and that caused unfortunately TW home has stopped message to pop up every time I hit the home button. Even trying to freeze the app caused this issue.

You may have to do a factory restore

It's a part of touchwiz. That's why when you freeze it or delete it you get the FC issues. Why the hell they did that, no clue because flipboard is available in the playstore.

If you use tablet talk on gear send them an email telling them to fix

I and others have sent the devs of tablet talk an email telling them the problem with force closes on the app trying to get them to fix it. I feel like if enough email then they will look into a fix even optimization for the watch. When the FC issue is fixed this app works great for texting. please let them know that there are a lot of people using it and want a fix

I contacted them and they responded. I asked people to give me log files regarding FC's. No one in the forums responded to me.
how can I get the logs. I'll give them to you

Not sure which is why I asked people to send me any logs they may have. If someone can tell me what to use to log for FC's I would gladly do it as well.

Why does Google Maps lose calibration so often?

I'm not sure what it is, but for the last few years, all the Samsung phones I've had have always lost calibration in Google maps after every few uses. That's disgustingly annoying. Does anyone know why this happens and how to fix it permanently? Please don't suggest installing another calibration tool to fix this issue. I'm looking for a real solution.
