Anyone know of one that compares to the iphone?
Can anyone make one?
What are the draw backs or whats stopping someone?
the app im working on keeps crashing becase it cant handle loading more then 20 image thumbnails due to the 16mb jvm size limit on each app. most apps go around this by resizing the thumbnails to teen thumbnails such as the defualt gallery and astro file manager, but even in astro (and prolly the main gallery app too) if you have around 150 images in a folder it will crash if you load all the thumbnails and scroll quick.
with a limitation like this i really doubt video processing is really possible....

Create "pages" that each hold 20 images, simply scroll through pages to view all 20+ images.
Moto cliq has this feature built in.

Then don't have the thumbnails load until it stops scrolling and have them unload when they are off the screen.

is there a way to have specific folders not show up in 3d gallery
it shows every single picture on my memory card every icon or instance of one
my gallery has like 20 folders
and is lagging my 3d gallery app and deleting them messes with the app or
permanantly deletes the picture
any thoughts??
put at . in front of the folder name.
.icons
Or search your SD card and see if you can find a file called .nomedia and copy that into the directory you don't want shown
wow thank you so much 3dgallery is smokin now
there was so many stupid soundboard icons and extracted pics from bootanimations it was finding and it was taking foreverrrrrr

Find the folder where the photos are saved and delete the pictures you don't want.
If you want to keep them but have them hidden put a . in front of the folder name. so it shows up as .foldername. This makes it a hidden folder and most apps will not see it or its contents.

The images may be synced from your Google Picasa account. Go to http://picasaweb.google.com/ to see if they are there.
Hi I use cyanogenmod by mdj but I don't like the 3d gallery which comes with it. I have used in the past some sense roms which had the much better htc gallery. What s your opinion on that and what app do you have to suggest me?

Quickpic is fast and nice...
yes...Quickpic... is very nice app thx
JustPictures is very fine...
If you want a simple gallery viewer with nice thumbnails, ability to exclude whatever folder you like (ie. system folders with icons etc) then Quickpic is one of the better ones out there. Tried just pictures and the like, Quikcpic leaves it for dead in terms of usability.
Dual file mgr wasnt bad either (acts like a file explorer just like a PC so you navigate to the folder opposed to every folder being viewed. Like on a windows phone).
+1 on quickpic. I also didn't like the 3d gallery and looked at a couple replacements and quickpic was the best becuase it's nice and simple and has thumbnail preview of pics
So I loaded Serendipity today. Master cleared and everything. So I was really surprised to find old pictures on my phone when I opened the gallery app. And strangely it wouldn't let me delete them. Hmm. So I looked in the sd folders, dcim etc. Cannot find these pics anywhere! The gallery app did tell me the file names So I loaded up root explorer and ran a search... NOTHING!
These pics show in my gallery but I can't find the files anywhere. Where are they hiding?

Went into the stetting, manage applications, to the gallery app and hit clear data, and these strange photos vanished! Still don't know where they were. but they are gone now. Would loveto hear where they were stored if anyone knows...
Spoke too soon! So after a reboot, the folder of pics comes back! If I clear the gallery app's data, it vanishes again, but returns after every reboot. Can anyone help with this?
Is it a stack of thumbnails (separate folder path) or viewable image files? If you have external SD maybe browse it on a PC.
It still there with no external SD, and I can't find it from the PC or root explorer.
You, know, I have a blog, and these all seem to be photos on my blog. And blogger seems to be hooked to Picasa Web albums. So I'm thinking Gallery pulls pulls the contents of my Picasa Web album down to the phone... could this be? Can it be stopped?

If you have them linked then yes that is where they are comming from and why they keep comming back. The only way to stop it would be to but a no media file in the target folder, back draw is that the file will hide it from all Android apps that look for media

Have you got go launcher or any other third party launcher? Go sms? Any other custom sms clients? I installed go sms once and now I have those strange ghost smileys on my phone. And can't you simply delete them in the gallery (or any other image viewer)?
Sent from my Galaxy Note running ICS
This is what happens when third party apps store data on your sdcard, and don't include a nomedia file in the folder they are storing them in, youwill have to either delete the files or if they keep coming back find the folder they are in and create a file with the name .nomedia with no file extension
Just be aware that if you have other media in the folder (eg. mp 3, videos etc.), they will no longer show up in other media playing apps if you add the .nomedia file.
I have a lot of music folders that have album art in them. All of the album art shows up in Gallery, which is annoying. I can't add a .nomedia file, or my mp3's won't show in music players.
I use Just Pictures most of the time as it allows you to hide folders. I only use Gallery when I am selecting a picture from an app that doesn't play nice with Just Pictures.

thanks, at the moment they didn't come back.
Let's hope it will stay this way.
Question for all the vets here.....Im coming from an iPhone so Im obviously familiar with a different way of doing things.
Im trying to figure out how the file structure works within Android. Im mostly referring to media files and where/how they are stored and accessed. Im used to everything being stored inside my "camera roll" or whatever its called in a iphone. It would store all videos, photos, screen shots, downloaded images, everthing but music.
Now with Android it appears everything is kind of all over the place. Pictures are in Google Photos and are also accessible from the camera app. Screen shots and downloaded pictures are also stored in Google Photos yet aren't accessible from the camera app? Videos are all over the place. Vids I record are in Google Photos and accessible from the camera app. Videos I download are in the downloads folder.
Seems like everything is kind of spread out and a mess/not easily accessible. Am I doing something wrong?
Then that brings me to other files like documents. I've downloaded excel files from email and click save to drive and then they don't show up in my google drive. I access them in sheets. Then tried saving to device, no clue where those are saved to/accessible from.
Basically the whole file management system is a bit confusing to me. Hopefully someone can help clear things up for me. I know I can download a file management app and access everything from their respective folders which is fine. But Im more concerned with where everything is stored/accessed from an app standpoint.
Thanks for the help if you read that whole mess!!!

Gallery, root explorer, and most pictures always end up in Pictures or DCIM/Camera.
the iPhone file structure isn't that much better when you jailbreak, either. on my iPad it works the same way and downloads from the net go into a weird temp folder.
Anyways, you need to get an external app to view stuff really well. Google stuff doesn't ever really work well for me, I would get office suite.
