First off this is not my app. I went back to the vibrant for a bit and found this. It works perfect on the MT4G so I figured I'd show it to you guys.
It was made by avdaga and his original thread is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=918945
Pretty much it's what the 3D gallery should do. Not just sway the pictures when you move the phone but actually scroll through them.
*If you have the aosp 3D gallery installed already you'll need to uninstall it before installing this one.
Heres the original post:

Hi there,
For a school project I have modified the Gallery3D application to enable scrolling, zooming etc by using the accelerometer.
I have made a short demonstration which can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xYkblRYPcY
The mod is based on CyanogenMod-android_packages_apps_Gallery3D-a63279d.
It would be very cool to use scrolling for the selection of pictures within the album grid, so one could open/close the picture by shaking... However, the sourcecode was not so well documented and we couldn't find some functions that would help us implementing this... I must note, the source contains 50+ classes, we have only looked into a few.
For installation instruction check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752007
Current Functionality added
VolDown: en/disable motion (disabled by default)
Gallery:
● Scroll by tilting
● Reset to first by shaking
Image view:
● Next/Prev by tilting L/R
● Zoom in/out by tilting U/D
● Reset zoom by shaking
With some help I hope to add the following in the future:
● In grid mode: Select center image
● In grid mode: Open image by shaking
● In grid mode: Prevent scrolling out of the grid range
● In picture mode: return to album by shaking
● In picture mode: initialize zooming at current tilt angle, and zoom from there by holding an overlay button (next to the zoomin/zoomout overlay buttons)
If anyone could help me a hand with the image selection, e.g. by giving me a direction where to find functions for this, I'd be very greatfull!
I'm wondering what you think about it, your questions/remarks are very welcome

lmao i figured they desired some battery mods real quick
but for real the only thing i hate is having both of em cus of that damn screen.... the mt4g wouldnt be so bad if i had gotten rid of the vibrant but seeing them side by side makes the mt4g look like **** (which i hate to say about my baby) but its true besides that i hate the thing I would honestly never buy another samsung phone (hence why NS isnt on my sig list) I stepped away from htc once and it was the worst experience ive ever had lol
oh and on a side note I never saw you post those icons i sent you... i couldnt remember if you asked me to just send you links straight to the flashables though lol sometimes I just lost in piles of msgs
Thanks for the gallery bro! Now get on AIM fker!

I dont remember ever getting the icons, I was just thinking about that yesterday. Maybe I missed the PM or something. I will have to go back and look. I was just playing with my buddies Vibrant. He just put the Froyo update on and was wondering if the lag fix would work. it is so laggy compared to the Glacier. I couldn't believe it. I didnt think his screen seemed much better than mine (good screen) and his seemed kinda color tinted. I dont watch movies or anything like that, I am sure there is a big difference there. I probably couldnt watch a movie on it anyways, that would require me not messing with it for like 2 hours and that aint happening. lol
Hey I saw you were making a zip for that guy in the other thread with the batt icons...YOU ROCK PACK!!! Thanks for everything!!!
Ha...when I posted this you had posted 420 times....I guess I know what I have to do!!
ill resend em to ya... no big deal... I always lose stuff in the ridicules number of messages i have lol
side note: lol after I saw your post I tried not to make another for a while because of that (and i dont even smoke anymore lol) just though it was funny as hell... I didn't notice until you posted that...
Thanks pack works great!!

not working with CM7
if it says cannot install... you need to uninstall the original one like I said in the OP
in root explorer goto /system/app
goto gallery.apk or gallery3D.apk (cant remember what its called)
and delete it
then install this one
i installed it again in root explorer then appmonster backed it up then deleted from appmonster. then moved this apk and installed. works perfect! Thanks for the tip!

The reason for that is because it is made from the original gallery app. So when you try to install it your device thinks your installing a duplicate application and denies it.

Thats my story!
About 2 month ago i found a tablet for me! It was PoV Mobii! First impression was "WOW it is really better then china Iped stuff". Then i realise that this tablet is a good one according to its hardware specs but is really weak according to soft part of it! So after some time of normal usage i decided to make it better!
Now its 2 weeks i am dealing with different issues and weakness of soft part but i think i'm done now.
Curently based on CorvusVegaRom. I found this ROM most fast and stable!
Used soft:
ADW Launcher EX
Beautifull Widgets
Switch Pro
Desktop Visualizer
Trillian (as ICQ and Skype client)
Picsel Smart Office
Memoires
RockPlayer Base
Pulse
Power AMP
Better keyboard
Activity Express Task manager
So basicly i have deleted all useless apps and found most usefull apps i've seen!
Then i made some design for Launcher and configure all the apps to let then do what i want.
Ok and that what i got now.
Sorry for video quality! My webcam is prettu bad!
And sorry for half of tablet soft in Russian!
feel free to ask

What is the smearing issue?
Our lovely SGS4 Super AMOLED screens are the first kind to completely turn off pixels when true black is showing...
Previous generation AMOLED screens used on the SGS1,2 & 3 devices kept power to black pixels which could be seen in a very dark room as a faint glow on areas of screen showing black.
So we now have true black screens with switched off pixels which is a GOOD thing... Am I right?
Well in theory yes but you have probably noticed a fairly annoying flaw when this is put into practice. The pixels take time to turn back on so whenever a grey or dark object moves across the screen against a black background the image will "Smear" due to this pixel switch-on delay.
How does this app fix this?
It's very simple and not a true fix. The app creates a nearly transparent white overlay covering the screen. This will make blacks a very dark grey which you will find hard to notice but it is enough to prevent pixels from switching off since true black is eliminated.
Use the Smear Fix app to launch the overlay and the Kill Smear Fix app to remove it. Simple!
Quick Guide
#1 install the "Kill smear fix app first
#2 install the "Smear Fix V1.4 app
#3 When you launch the app there is NO ui interfaace. The app with create a nearly invisible overlay which will cover the entire screen.
#4 The app WILL auto start on boot UNLESS you have killed it previously using the Kill app.
#4 The Kill App will remove the overlay AND prevent the main app restating on reboot. The control file for this is "smearfix" stored at the root of your SD memory.
IMPORTANT: This app has just one known issue/bug/quirk which is the same you will find for ALL overlay/screen filter type apps so I can't fix it.
When the app is running you WILL NOT be able to install any apps manually. The install button just won't respond. You will have to use the kill app to undo the fix to remedy this.
ROOT NOT REQUIRED!!
Install the Kill App BEFORE you install the main overlay app
V1.2>>> Kill app now properly kills the main app and service.
V1.3>>> Fixed landscape overlay
V1.4>>> Made overlay 1080x1920 properly this time. USES LESS RESOURCES TO RUN!!

Holy mother of God it actually works perfectly.
This is cool and all, but one major draw back is that, when this app is running, you are not able to touch the INSTALL button when say restoring an app via titanium.
I have this same problem with the app called Screen Adjuster (which basically does the same thing, just by slightly changing the RGB values to make the smearing go away). The plus side to that app is it has a toggle to turn it off quickly.
Seems to be working, thanks for the fix!

I hate the night mode overlay filter apps. Back in the day when I ran cm7 there was the excellent cm7 render fx option . I would use the red effect for reading at night. Unlike overlays it was crystal clear and good for many uses. Is anyone aware of any way to get this effect on a modern os?
If anyone remember this awesome feature please chime in! Did you love it as much as I did?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I miss this feature too. I was just thinking last night how it saved you from night blindness, reduced eyestrain and didn't spotlight your face in the dark. I would love to see this as a standard on android.
I finally found the solution (for root users)
This is a way to recreate this functionality. CF.Lumen is a godsend for those of us who know the difference between a screen filter and renderfx.

CF lumen is nice. Thanks for the suggestion.
Have had the phone for 5 days now and love it,from the build and feel in hand to the software,came from a HTC which are quality built phones and this matches that and more .The FP scanner is a dream to use and the back is certainly the right place for it .My only complaint is that awful black controls bar at the bottom. Google make it transparent on the home screen and Google now ,yet even in there own apps like Gmail its still there,its present in 90% of my apps,that might be down to the app,but things like dolphin browser on full screen mode have it hidden away to pull up as needed.It looks so much better when not there and isn't taking up valuable screen space .Is there any reason why it can't be transparent in every app etc or at least move down when not in use.

Not an option I'm afraid I have certain aps that I need that will not work any anything other than stock ROMs , attached are dolphin browser pics both in full screen mode just on one I've swiped uo to get controls back
A couple more that show how much better it can be
Yea I agree. The controls make the screen real estate like a 5.5 screen because they are constantly there
I imagine pie controls will be coming.

Essentially gets rid of the navigation options at the bottom and instead you pull them up in the side only when necessary. You access them like the labs controls on the old aosp browser by running a finger on the side to cause then to pop out.
There are a few apps to do this - root not required.
Works on mm on the n5 (WHERE'S MY 6P GOOGLE!), as it's just a launcher should also work on the 6p
I plan on using LMT launcher. With root you should be able to run LMT and remove navigation bar as well
Wow I thought about this too with my 6P. When I was using my G3 prior I used Pie controls and removed the nav bar. Would love to use all of that 5.7" real estate the 6P has.
Stick this line at the bottom of your build.prop file in the system folder and nav bar is gone, "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1". Make sure you have pie already installed, I use pie control.

Can't understand why Google would not have immersive as standard looks so much better
Lower the DPI in build.prop a bit and the nav bar will be smaller and you'll have more real estate on the screen.
