[Q] Photo Album showing grainy photos - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Back in my G1 days, I was a huge fan of the Photoburst album. Its quick and easy to use.
Now that I have Android on my HD2, I redownloaded Photoburst and it found my pictures from my SD just fine, but it is a bit quirky...for starters, it is slow (lags quite badly) when opening and zooming on pictures. The quality is also quite sub-par. The pictures themselves are crystal clear when viewed on my G1 or on my PC.
Has anyone noticed similar issues?
Also, can anyone recommend a decent 3rd party photo album for Android? I am not a fan of the stock Gallery app (albeit, it does work quite well).

Hi,
did you find any decent Photo Album application for Android ? Photo Galery shows in a low quality when in slide presentation. My Photo just can't update the thumbnails... It has a database update but doesn't works. It keeps showing already deleted folders and photo thumbnais and because of that, when in Slide show, keeps trying to show pictures that already were deleted.
Well...I want a simple, but functional Photo slide application where I can choose one or more folders from my SD card to show.
Any idea ??
Thanks,
Carlos

[Q] Movie Studio cannot find Picasa pictures/videos

Hi, I'm having some problems with Movie Studio on a Motorola XOOM. It appears that the application doesn't let me add pictures in the Gallery that come from Picasa Web, and just those that have been taken with the device camera and those in the downloads folder. I am under the impression that it's somehow not scanning the same directories that the Gallery application is scanning, as the Gallery application shows also all the pictures I have on Picasa Web too.
I also tried to make some albums available offline but the behavior is the same.
Is there any reason why those files are not picked up?

Coming from Samsung Vibrant, can't see my old photos?

I just transfered from the Vibrant to the Amaze (love it so far) but for some reason, the gallery app is not picking up my Vibrant files.
I had a bunch of different folders on there, like my camera photos, dowloads, videos.
All of the photos and videos I took with my Nexus One show up just fine, but none of the ones from the Vibrant. Am I missing something here? Also, the HTC music app pulls all my MP3s from the SD card, but Google Music does not. Maybe I need to run the Rescan Media for that, but it didn't fix the gallery issue.
Just a thought: The Vibrant has internal storage that behaves like an external memory card. Is it possible your Nexus One stuff is on the MicroSD card, but the photos you took with the Vibrant are not, but instead were in internal storage?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Install a 3rd party app for viewing photos like quickpic, see if the pictures show up there.. maybe somehow your vibrant pictures ended up in a folder with a .nomedia file?(that would keep it from being scanned by stock software)
I haven't used google music in a while, but I thought you had to manually set the media locations to scan? I highly doubt that it has anything to do with coming from a vibrant.. I would definitely verify that you can find the files with file explorer and try to open them manually to make sure they aren't corrupt or missing.
I think 2ndHalfCor was right about the photos. The Vibrant in itself does act as an external device, which I am assuming is where the photos are stored
As far as Google Music goes, I don't see an option to select a source for my songs. It only shows the few that I bought with the service

Gallery questions

So I have over 2600 songs on my phone and the problem I am having now is that some of the album covers are showing up in my Gallery app. Its not all of them just a certain few. Is there any way to remove them from the Gallery app without losing them for the actual music albums?
Also I have a dropbox and profile photos pictures in the Gallery app as well and would like to get rid of those all together.
Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!
clear data to gallery app in the settings -> apps
did this to clear all my pisca albums
Thanks a lot TP! That worked great. now all I need to do is figure out how to hide all there album covers...

[Q]Gallery Issue[Q]

Hi there,
Basically my Dad last night was in his Gallery and he could see all of his photos that he has taken with his camera, as they appear in an album Camera. This morning he came to me with his phone and explained that this morning some notification for 'Instant Upload' had appeared and that he could no longer see the pictures that he had taken with his Camera in his Camera album, but that all of those photos had been uploaded to something called 'Instant Upload' which had now created an album in his gallery and had deleted his camera album.
We also have a Samsung TV, and now when he tries to beam from the phone to the TV using AllShare it comes up as unsupported file type, I'm guessing this is because technically the photo's aren't on the phone but are actually on a remote server? I initially thought it to be Google+, so I turned Instant Upload off there, however I noticed the album in the Gallery has a small Picasa picture next to it. How do I get the pictures from Instant Upload back onto the phone?
Thanks in advance! :laugh:

My Whatsapp's images and videos have vanished but still accessible!!! Please help!

Hi guys,
My dualApp whatsApp's images and videos have vanished from the Galleries and are nowhere to be found using the built-in S9 explorer!!
Yet when I open my DualApp and go into a conversation's media Tab, I can see all the images and videos are still there and I can even watch the videos!! Yet when I chose "Open in Gallery" when viewing the items, I get an error!
So now, I have no way to view the images and videos like before in gallery, nor back them up!
Also, now, when I try to take an image or video from that dual whatsapp, I get a "file format not recognized" error!
Please can anyone help?
Thanks.
P.S: The Main Whatsapp (non dual app) images and videos still do show up in galleries, and I can take pictures and videos no problem.
