Hi all,
I was trying to find a solution to the problem which I would like to solve but couldn't therefore decided to ask you guys.
First, I would like to automatically save camera photos in my extern memory which is done in Camera settings. However, if I want to save into a specific location within the extern memory, how do I do that? It saves photos in My Documents by default?
Second, how do I set HTC Album to automatically look in that folder rather than selecting the folder each time I start the album?
Hope there is a solution for that

I have same problem, new pictures was saved to my documents folder, not my documents\my pictures. Solution found by mistake was to open camera from start->programs->camera and take photo, after that camera saved pictures in correct location (My Pictures, can be edited with register HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\p...) even when camera was strated via touchflo3d

not working
I tried your solution but didn't work!
However, after a research on the net, I found the followings:
In registry; change
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\AppDefSettings\Image\SaveFolder\My Pictures
to e.g.
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\AppDefSettings\Image\SaveFolder\Camera Photos
and soft reset! but still, it save images to My Documents!!!

You must change the registry for each camera function, P1 to P10
and change the following registery key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Camera\P9]
"SaveFolder"="\\Intern geheugen\\My Documents\\Mijn video's"
The SaveFolder is a String Value and you have to type it like: \External memory\My Documents\My pictures
So without the 2 backslashes !!!!

thanks so much...and please HELP ME!!
This has been mentioned here...

thanks...but no one solved ther problem!!
news??
There are various registry settings which I've tried changing:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SOFTWARE
HTC
Camera
Image
SaveFolder
This looked promising, but if you enter a folder name in the "SaveFolder" setting (I tried one called "photos") it simply changes the settings so the camera now saves in \My Documents\[date]\photos!
There are also further possibilities in:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software
IA Style
IA CameraWizard(Pocket PC)
2.70
Strings
Image Folder
The folder is set to \My Documents as a deault. It is possible to change this folder to a different one, but it appears that when you start the camera application, it resets this back to \My Documents.
Anyone have any further ideas?
Did anyone get any further with this?
don't use the camera often, but recently, I found when taking a picture, all is normal, good scene on screen, autofocus, etc and when I shoot the picture, it does not save. Running a Tilt, stock ROM, and have tried various camera/album combinations trying to find one that works. Currently with Navadi version 5. Interestingly enough, I can take video and it works well, just will not save still photos. Camera program sees my storage card, everything seems normal, except no photo file after snapping the shot. I am out of ideas.
i think it is saving them to the dcim folder on ur sd card
Nope, nothing there. It does not even go through the usual motions of freezing the frame for a second while saving. I have scoured the phone and card and find nothing.
Fire up schaps advanced config, check the "Save location" under "Camera" and "Default storage locatin for images" under "Locations".
By combining the two you should be able to find it. I left the DCIM option on once and took me ages to find the photo, but it was in a DCIM folder on my storage card, somewhere...
Also,
Use total commander or resco file explorer to search for the files. *.jpg for example

Thanks, already tried all of that, seems there is either a software or hardware issue with saving pictures. I am beginning to believe it is a hardware issue, although a curious one indeed. I am pretty good with these devices and this one has me stumped, never lost to a computer yet, though. If it is a hardware issue, maybe tough to fix.
I have a similar problem: taking pictures works fine and it saves them in the correct folder on my storage card, as I set it in Advanced Config.
But whenever I take a GPS photo, I can't find the pictures anywhere. Are GPS photos being saved somewhere else I don't know about? If so, does anyone know which folder they're saved to? If not, has anyone else had this particular problem?

The GPS photos are stored in \My Documents\My POI (or \Storage Card\My Documents\My POI if you've chosen to store your pictures on your SD card).

I've had similar issues with mine (also running the stock AT&T ROM). What I've found is that the "press halfway to autofocus, but all the way to take the picture" thing often makes me believe that I've taken the picture, when I haven't. If I am more careful about pushing the button in all the way, it'll take the photo and save it.

Yes, I actually found out about the same time you posted this reply.
Thanks for your help!
Possibly related issue: My tilt camera will save fine to device storage, but if I tell it to save to the SD card, I get nothing. If I catch the photo while it is displayed for review, and click the mail button, I can send it in an email. Even stranger, if I take a jpeg, and copy/paste it to the DCIM folder, it never appears, but I can write to other parts of the card fine.
I think this is a software problem, not hardware.
EDIT:
Found solution on another thread. Camera dosen't like folders created already on the card, so to solve, just delete the DCIM folder, and restart camera.
I have allot of program folders with grafix in them on my phone, and I don't want to scroll thrue all of them when I'm using Camera -> Album...

'I just want to say BIG thanx to everybody in this forum!! Without you I would be completely lost!'
I have the same problem. Plus, I would like to open a picture in HTC album from file explorer, but it always just opens the default album, not the picture I want to open.
Any help is appreciated!
Yeah, I would be lost without the forum as well!

Can block all folders except in Internal Storage..
Hello,
the only solution I'm aware of is to set the 'hidden' attribute on the folders which should not be visible in the HTC-Album.
In my experience each individual image has to have the hidden attribute set, rather than the folders.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424784
Hello Dave,
yes, you're right.
I used "Total Commander/CE", and tried to set the hidden-attribute on a folder called "Musik", and selected "Recurse subdirs". Then I checked some subfolders an saw that the folders were not marked "hidden" (that does work with "Total Commander 32" on my PCs). But after a reboot, HTC-Album didn't list any of the subfolders inside the "Musik"-folder. So I thought it was enough to mark the top-folder hidden to hide all subfolders, too.
I just checked the folder again and saw that Total-Commander/CE had marked all files 'hidden'.
So it's not as easy as I thought.

It's easy enough from a desktop computer in USB disk drive mode.
I don't generally use HTC Album but this is a fix I have to do with my music album art in order to keep the program actually usable. It's a really flawed bit of software IMO.
Hello, I have got a question. When I receive photos via BT I can, without any problems find them in file explorer. But how can I move them in such a way, to be able to see them in photo gallery in Touchflow?
Regards, fck.
move to Internal Storage/My Documents/My Pictures
Obvious really isn't it?!?!
Obvious as hell. The point is, in my case it's not working.
Regards, fck.
May I ask which ROM do you use? as this can be ROM dependent
May I suggest a couple of programs that may help
1) HTC4_Inbox A program that saves BT transferred files to storage card Start -> Settings -> Connections -> OBEX Inbox to choose where u want to recieve files.
2) Advance Config 3.3 a useful tool that allows you to specify the mapping of folders like;
My Documents
My Videos
Etc
I am using the Aztor x2 Ultimate. I am familiar to Advanced config application, I am using it for battery saving features. The problem is, why no photos are beeing displayed in the photo album although they are in correct location.
Hi,
All i'm doing is copying images to my \\internal storage\my documents\my pictures and they always appear right away in Tf3d.
What is the path you have for your images?
Hello just wondering if anyone knows of a way to change the names an xperia t saves its photos as, each time I use syncme to backup my photos to the pc, then delete the photos on the xperia it starts using dsc_0001 dsc_0002 and so on again, which then causes problems with repeated file names.
On my old nokia I could set it to use the date as photo file name. Is there something along these lines I could use for the xperia?
Thanks
This is my problem too...
I think that they exists a lot of application which solve this problem. Try to see this:
Code:
http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/13954/how-can-i-change-the-naming-convention-of-the-stock-camera-gallery-app
Or other solution is bulk renaming all files in PC.
Cheers for the help, I couldn't find a solution that would do it simply on the phone so decided to just use this program http://www.digicamsoft.com/softnamexif.html on the pc which instantly renames the picture to dates. Perfect, job sorted
Cheers
