It’s rare because most photo sharing platforms check the file for compatibility upon upload, and fix the issue by recompressing the file & changing these kinds of things. If the intention of the photographer is to distribute an image online for use as a computer based image, like wallpaper, there is zero reason to have a *.jpg file in any colorspace other than sRGB. Frankly, I can’t imagine why any JPEG image should be anything but sRGB or AdobeRGB.
Latest update (pls pin this): That infamous Pro Photo RGB wallpaper that crashed Android phones back in 2020, is fixed. Google addressed the problem with the August 2020 Android Security Patches. The issue arose when Android tried to convert the Pro Photo RGB color space to sRGB, causing a crash due to an out-of-bounds value. Apparently, the wallpaper's RGB values exceeded the maximum limit, leading to an error when Android attempted to process it. The fix involved limiting the y value to prevent the crash . The Fix: Google's Update: The August 2020 Android Security Patches resolved the issue. Developer's Patch: AOSP-based custom ROM developer Davide Bianco submitted a patch to fix the problem. Workaround: Some users found that taking a screenshot of the image and then setting it as wallpaper worked, as it converted the image to sRGB. The drama surrounding that cursed wallpaper is now a thing of the past, thanks to the quick response from Google and the developer community! 🤯
@@9aosoxmd No kidding, someone whose career is making UA-cam videos gets them to a length to ensure they can still have ad revenue to support themselves?! What a completely horrible thing for a person to do! It's almost like he has to eat to stay alive or something.
So basically I set this wallpaper, which makes Android completely unstable and keeps restarting, HOWEVER I found a solution by trial-and-error method to revert change without any data loss because of restoring to factory settings. I tested this on Samsung Galaxy S9+, so I assume it can work also on other Samsung devices, I'm not sure about other brands. 1. At first, restart your phone or wait until it restarts by itself 2. Try to go to camera app from lock screen (on most phones it's a shortcut in bottom right corner) - that's because it's the fastest method to do it and you don't need to unlock a phone with code Now the screen *should* stop flickering 3. Take a random photo. It doesn't matter what you take - it will be used to replace "destructive" wallpaper with this one and later you can change it back to whatever you had before 4. After that, go to the camera roll *from* camera app (do not quit it) and search for that picture you took just right before 5. Go to options for that picture (it usually is as three dots at the upper right corner) and "Set as wallpaper" *SIDE NOTE:* If your phone is secured by code/PIN/fingerprint, it may be difficult to do that because screen starts flashing again and GUI starts to be very unstable. You must try to do it several times! 6. Choose whether you changed previously wallpaper in home screen or lock screen, If you don't remember, set for both screens. 7. Apply that wallpaper and it should be over! If it isn't, restart your phone once again. It can be pretty tedious and hard to do, but afaik it's the only solution to "repair" your phone without restoring to factory settings which leads to data loss (not everyone would do this, right?). I hope I helped someone with this and have a good day!
This is why when you program something you use "else-if" for every alternative option you think is possible, reserving "else" for some sort of failsafe or reset when something happens you never thought would be possible in the first place. People and computers both have an amazing knack for finding the exceptions you never saw coming.
^^ It’s unsurprising the developers forgot about this though. The phone’s got a whole lot of code embedded in it and it’s hard to keep up with everything.
@@the_toothpastesas a self learned programmer, I think that's surprising. When I code something I always include the else edge case for any possible situations like that. It should be a standard, a good practice
This is actually so interesting. I'm in the beginning of learning code as a cs major and I've messed up code because of rounding errors... Seeing that this still happens in high level programming with extremely sophisticated level of code is funny to me.
And so, thousands of people proceeded to intentionally lose their phones because... they were told "Lost my phone, don't lose yours", and tried to prove it wrong.
I have a decent understanding of color spaces and rgb, but this was hands down one of the most interesting videos I've seen in a long time. Great explanation, and it's crazy there weren't guards in place to prevent this!
Humans are like that. If you tell them not to do something they'd just want to do it more. I actually also wanted to set this as my wallpaper lmao out of curiosity but I just forgot to do it. I personally don't care as much about my Samsung since it's already now a 3 yo phone but if the risks include totally killing the phone then... I'm glad I forgot to set it
@Adam J. Harper what about someone who hadn't known about its danger??? They were innocently setting this as a wallpaper only for the phone to crash and they have no idea why. I think that's who OP os referring to.
This happened to me, I downloaded a wallpaper app and had no idea it was the photo that stuffed my phone (until now) however after a while it gives you to a option to totally reset your phone so I did and then recovered every thing from my google backup so in the end I didn't really lose any thing... But it still was not fun.
it really feels like there should be a failsafe where it removes the wallpaper back to default but I guess this problem never even crossed anyone's minds
yeah, most devs work on the principle of "dont fix it if t's not broken" i think (src: wikipedia follows this as well). so, yeah. that causes a lot of issues, subtle, but still issues.
I wonder if it would be difficult to load up a option that's says boot without wallpaper for this issue, unless they just fix the program to not allow 256 as a value
@@TheAussieBrickMan He said it at the end of the video. If Android 11 is gonna do it (or has done it already), safe to assume others will follow as well
@@TheAussieBrickMan Would you ever think about the importance of "booting without wallpaper", had you not have heard about this in the first place? The option isn't there, because the issue wasn't anticipated.. understandably 😆
That explanation is interesting but it leaves me with one question - If it cannot be displayed as a wallpaper due to Google's typically shoddy standard of coding, why can it be displayed at all? Surely simply trying to display the image would cause the process to crash and you would not be able to display it in order to grab a screenshot.
@@PhonyDeveloper Oh! What I meant was the reputation this photo now has. Even if they change the actual photo and fix it, the photo will still keep it's negative reputation. Which makes me feel bad for the photographer.
True. I believe that the photographer has taken that photo for showing it to people.(In a good way) But it is indeed possible to put a virus into a photo online.
That's actually an insanely silly bug. It's like they never wrote tests or checked the edge cases of that luminance formula. Even a statement that will always limit the maximum to 255 would have fixed this.
Me as a graphic designer: understands everything you said about luminance, values exceeding 255 and different sizes of RGB color modes Me as an idiot: wondering if my phone would survive this wallpaper and fighting back the urge to go check
Pretty easy. Write a program to do the same math google's engine does on all the pixels in the image and output the coordinates of any over 256. The hard part is arriving at the theory that it may be a value over 255. Of course, if there are any logs or backtraces available (and there are on developer builds) they might have seen a debug log talking about a value out of range that comes with the exact line of source code where the error occurred.
Just a clarification between converting between color spaces and assigning color spaces. Assign will just declare to the image that an existing value now reflects the value in the new color space (the value will not change just have different meaning), while convert will change the value to reflect the correct one in the new color space (assuming it fits, or it will clip or compress). The difference is assign will shift the colors as in the video, while convert you will still the closest possible colors to the new color space.

@@yami-8907 www.scp-wiki.net/scp-196 this dude attacks anyone who sees his face in a photo or in person. In lore a photo with only 4 pixels containing his face got many people killed.
He's probably waiting to get the perfect shot and waited for weeks sleeping on a tent and when the perfect shot came he cannot share it to other people to use It as a wallpaper
I don't know why this one appears in my feed but 4 minutes on and I still don't know. So for you not to loose your time it's because the picture was made with a color profile used for printing wich is a wider color space than your screen and during the conversion to srgb (which is the color space for average screen) one pixel goes above 255 which crash the phone. Don't thank me.
this wallpaper is good to reset my school tablet :)... Only if we were back in highschool MKBHD: "So I put this wallpaper on my phone and here are my thoughts..."
Because monitors don't support all colors, the more color space they support, the more expensive they are. sRGB is the standard so that a photo will look similar on all devices, because pretty much all monitors support almost all sRGB space, even cheaper ones. sRGB is also compatible with almost all cameras/printers

A pixel for a pixel
Yikes

I used the pixel to destroy the pixel
Not only pixel also others too
Android phone expert: "Don't do this"
Everyone: *Does it*

Just a clarification between converting between color spaces and assigning color spaces. Assign will just declare to the image that an existing value now reflects the value in the new color space (the value will not change just have different meaning), while convert will change the value to reflect the correct one in the new color space (assuming it fits, or it will clip or compress). The difference is assign will shift the colors as in the video, while convert you will still the closest possible colors to the new color space.

I'm just wondering how the original photographer of that photo is feeling about this.
He reported it himself saying my wallpaper is crashing devices don't apply it or somthing like that
What if I screenshot it if will kill the phone
@@Charism6969 no.....he said that in the video.
@@valensioc oooo
@@Charism6969 that will never happen because the screen shots taken on android are always sRGB

We get more than what we clicked for
Poor guy just wanted to take a picture of the sunrise and no one can use his picture because of a damn pixel
Rip to the guy who took the picture
Could we have an f in the chat for this guy
He's probably waiting to get the perfect shot and waited for weeks sleeping on a tent and when the perfect shot came he cannot share it to other people to use It as a wallpaper
Hmm sounds _familiar_
*SCP Flashbacks*
The dude is probably hated by everyone who lost their phone
I see phones are having a shitty 2020 too,welcome to the party

*coffin dancers start dancing*
I don't know why this one appears in my feed but 4 minutes on and I still don't know. So for you not to loose your time it's because the picture was made with a color profile used for printing wich is a wider color space than your screen and during the conversion to srgb (which is the color space for average screen) one pixel goes above 255 which crash the phone. Don't thank me.
People: * peacefully setting a nice sunset as wallpaper *
One random pixel: *Whomst has awakened the ancient one*
Keozenpo everyone else that downloaded the photo and set it as their wallpaper 👁👄👁 *im in danger* hehehe

You just gave me an idea for highschool
We need ALL people to do this
my school tablet option to change the wallpaper is enabled 😤
@Mariner The Managarmr buddy, they mean the tablets they have at schools for you to use (and not take home)
Have u done it then what was the result
Honestly why doesn’t every piece of tech support the entire range of colours we see?
Because monitors don't support all colors, the more color space they support, the more expensive they are. sRGB is the standard so that a photo will look similar on all devices, because pretty much all monitors support almost all sRGB space, even cheaper ones. sRGB is also compatible with almost all cameras/printers
