Can't share photos via gallery app. - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Every time I try to share photos via the Gallery app, I get a box saying "sorry, gallery has stopped." This makes it impossible to share via NFC and hard to share via text. How do I fix this?

can I get an answer please? This does kinda hurt functionality.

v4 contact photos bug?

Just been trying to take some contact photos with the new V4 rom, they dont get saved atall. Not to a contact or onto the disk. Once its taken it just vanishes?
Also when browsing images using the viewer clicking "Camera" doesnt do anything.
Anybody got some nifty registery hack to fix it. Ide like to fill up my contact photos for the cube but ones taken with the normal camera are huge files and look odd when shrunk down so much!
Thanks
Ryan
Same problem here
Also saw it with mine too.After tryng tht and starting camera with the hardware key showed,camera initialisation error.May be some gurus will help us out.
Yes, it appears the camera is broken, I can not open any pictures I have taken, not just contact photos.
In have just reset my device to see if I can find a work-around and it is now stuck on the welcome screen.....
Camera problems
Problems I have with the camera are:
- Contact pictures are not saved (so you can't use them)
- GPS foto's still not working
- foto's and video's are stored in the seem folder
- when you make a movie the movie is not showing under album (but it is in the folder)
- when you try to play a recorded video you receive an error saying "the source filter for this file could not be loaded"
Does anyone know if there is a cab file for the camera or who to contact to get these problems fixed???
Trying Fix now..Wait me..!

Photo sharing app

Hi,
Is there an app that allows me to share a pic with instagram and facebook at the same time? Maybe even twitpic? IFTTT only works if I take the picture using instagram, which I hate, I just want to use the camera app and then post it wherever I want.
Any help will be appreciated!

[Q] How to fix the camera resolution in some apps?

Hey there!
I have a problem that I'm sure you have it too. Which is in some apps such as Path, YouNow, and Glide when I open the front camera, the resolution of the vedio or the picture looks SO BAD! Not like the camera app or Snapchat camera!
Please if you have the solution tell me!
Anyone please?
I would assume that it is per app based. Doubt it is device or firmware specific, try searching through the application settings or contacting the developers specifically. Instagram for example has a setting that says something along the lines of advanced image processing or some bs and it makes the pictures look like horse crap. Look for something like that in the specific apps.

Google Photo Help?

So I have tried to find the answer with no luck. How do I switch my text app, Facebook, Instagram apps to use Google photos as the default instead of Samsung photo app?
It will use both, just add a shortcut to Google Photos on your homescreen where Samsung Gallery was and use that instead
That definitely didn't solve the problem. It's just using the Samsung photo gallery, and doesn't even give me the option to make Google photos as my default.

Try setting google photos as default app for photos will do.

I am having the same issue. There's no way to change the stock Gallery app to google photos. When I had my pixel, my apps would source directly from Google Photos, and I guess I was spoiled. Even if a photo wasn't downloaded and I selected it to send, it would forward it after it downloaded.
It's a pretty dumb situation honestly with this phone. Your text app you can use the Google photo app, but anything else like , IG or Facebook you have to go into Google photos app and download it to the phone so the picture you want to post goes into the stupid Samsung gallery. I bought the app that someone had suggested to disable the Samsung gallery app and it didn't work. Also when you disable the app, it effects other apps on the phone, so you are pretty much screwed. Besides the fingerprint scanner, I think this whole, not being able to just use the Google photo app as default for everything is the next biggest ****ty thing about this phone. I still love the phone, but you pay the big bucks and you still have to deal with issues like this, when phones half the price offer these two things better. Oh well I guess?
