blurry screenshots?

**RRHMJ23** · 03-04-2013, 08:38 PM

Is anybody else having problems with thier screenshots,Ive noticed when i take a screen shot of a webpage or anything with text in it,the text is blurry.Im not sure if its because of the update or not.

Do you mean the actual screen grab or after you try and send it to someone using the stock messaging app? I was having same problem but switched to Go SMS and it fixed the problem. I'd love to go back to stock messaging app though because Go has been spamming a lot lately.

Try using the Go SMS messaging app from the play store. It will solve that problem. I wish the regular messaging app worked with this though.

Yes, it will replace the stock message app. It is good.

Yeah it's either that or a ROM like MeanBean that stops it from compressing images, although in that case with full res photos from the back camera you can run into issues sending it to people on AT&T since depending on the plan they have a really annoying message size limit that won't deliver if it's over a certain amount.

I started to notice this once JB came out. It happens every time. It doesn't matter who I send it to or which carrier they are on.

**NastyNeil** · 03-07-2013, 07:37 PM

Yup. There was another a thread about this. It happened with the JB update.

A temp fix is to attach a screenshot image you don't want to an MMS and then add another image and then put the real screenshot you want. Then simply delete the first slide (hold or press next to the slide you want and there will be a popup option to delete the slide) and your image will be fixed and high quality. This doesn't seem to work for normal pics taken with the cam but they're not quite as bad as the screenshots when compressed. Enjoy and if it works give me some thanks and like!

You are right. That definitely works. The extra step is annoying, but it works.

The fact we have to jump through hoops is beyond pathetic. My att note 2 has been great except issue after issue related to sms. If I didn't love the phone so much for everything else, I'd take it back the store I bought it from and smash it with a hammer on their sales counter.

This no longer happens with Chomp SMS

Chomp froze repeatedly. Pos app. We should not have to go to these lengths for text messaging.

So sorry for the suggestion...but personally, I don't consider Chomp a "pos app" as I have never had a single problem with it for the last two years. Make yourself a great day.

It is a pos app. It can't handle any amount of increased use. For the occasional leisure texter, it is fine, but if you have 4 to 5 conversations going, any of which are a group, it freezes and crashes.

Like I said before, I've never had any issues at all, and I am a heavy user as you described. Too bad it doesn't seem to work for you.

No sms app works good for me. How many sms sent/received do you average per month?

I'll screenshot my bill to show how much I exceed you. I have never met someone who comes close to me. I'm not proud of it, it's actually pathetic.

Between 3500-5000/month.
