Lag in gallery when zooming - Galaxy S II General

Hi
I just wanted to check with you all if you also experience a little lag when zooming in and out in the gallery pictures? The zoom in-out is not as smooth as it was in the first SGS and its really annoying me. Its not really lag but the picture jump a bit and shake a bit when i zoom in-out.
The weird thing is that this only occur in gallery apps. I tried quickpic and all other apps, and same problem. But the zoom in-out works perfectly and really smooth in all other areas such as browsing, and even opening the same picture in the browser. Really smooth. And every picture is saved on the internal memory.
Is this normal?

No one with the same problem?

No, it's not normal. Zooming in the Gallery is super-smooth for me.

happened to me last night. zooming pictures and scrolling between albums lag. try rebooting. it fixed my problem

I did a factory reset but still same problem :/

Well, is just installed sgs tools from market and "upgraded" the gallery and now its as smooth as it was on the first SGS.

no problems for me

Why are things blurry when zooming in on the Gallery?

When using the built-in Gallery, why are images blurry? Seems like its not rendering the image correctly and just zooming in on a thumbnail.
If this is how it works, anyone recommended a replacement that works the way it should?

Problem in zooming in gallery - terrible aliasing

hi all,
I'm facing a strange problem in gallery. As i pinch-zoom pictures taken from the camera, zoom is fine and the edges remain smooth. Similar is the case with pictures downloaded from hd wallpaper app.
However, if i zoom-in on the pictures (9.1 MP captured through my Sony DSC-H50 camera), it is not showing up nice. It shows up blocky inspite of the fact that its resolution is higher than that of the screen; even so on minor pinch-zoom.
Major problem however is that if I try to make these as my wallpaper, it shows up very blocky.
Is there any resolution for this problem? Is there any other app through which I can set images as my wallpaper without disturbing the quality?
Try wallpaper set and save
Did you wait for a moment, say, 5-10 seconds? I was using an old card which is a class 2 SD card and everytime I zoom in a picture it takes about 5 seconds to load the full resolution, the situation gets much better after I have changed to a class 10 Transcend micro SD card, try to get a class 10 card and you will probably find improvement in pretty much everything since there is very frequent usage on SD card for caching I guess.

Camera <-> Camcorder Zoom Weirdness

Going to try to explain this... When I'm using the stock Camera app, the picture is normal. But when I switch to Camcorder, it seems to be automatically zoomed in quite a bit. And when I try to zoom out, it says that since I'm recording in HD, zoom functions are not available.
This is kind of annoying because now I have to step back probably 5 feet to fill the same frame of when I was taking photos.
Is this normal for everyone else too? Or do I have some weird glitch on my unrooted and pure stock ROM?
Yep, mine does it too (stock rom). It only does that in FullHD resolution. I guess the only use middle part of the sensor to read the data to achieve greater speeds, and thus it's gonna be a hardware limitation.
Who need HD anyway ? The lens hardly catch with it. I record 720x480 and I'm very pleased with teh quality.
Change the video recording resolution in the settings pane to 1280x720 and that should fix your problem.

Yeah I noticed that.
But that doesn't make sense. In photo mode, same resolution as video mode but in video mode it's zoomed in. Like Dr. Sid said, it seems that it uses a smaller section of the image sensor to capture video. Which again doesn't make sense. Weird.
This is definetly a speed optimization - scaling down the whole resolution of camera sensor from 3264*2448 -> 1080p is much more expensive operation than just cropping the central pixels, i assume someone at samsung was VERY lazy to have done the camcorder mode in such a lame way, it's still ok for recording outside scenes but useless for in-room recording.
I find this quite annoying also. At first I was wondering if it is a ROM glitch or something, since some of the people here stated that even in stock ROM it is present also.
I hope there is some kind of patch to this, full HD recording is really awesome and I hate to see the 'zoomed' effect.
Yeah noticed the same thing just last night.. Seems to also affect the camera's ability to focus properly in video capture mode as well... Shame on them, I wish I had noticed this sooner.

[Q] Dolphin browser jerky pinch zoom

Is anyone else having trouble with Dolphin's pinch zoom being a bit jerky? When I begin to pinch, the screen location shifts quite dramatically before it begins to zoom smoothly with my pinch.

Slow motion camera?

Okay so I recorded some really cool slow motion shots. I can go into the edit screen and select the exact spot the slow motion should be. But when I go to send/post it the the video is completely in slow motion. Nothing in normal speed at all. Help?
No help needed, that is normal.
The entire video is slow motion, software speeds it up, and doesn't save it that way as it doesn't save a video.
There's another thread on this - somewhere - take a look for it for more info.
Use a screen recorded to record the playback of the show motion. Then edit in a video. You can use Google play games screen recorder.
