[Q] location under album in gallery app? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. Not really sure if its normal or not, but in my gallery app, which is the stock app, there is a location being displayed under my camera album. In my case it says "Santa Ana, California." Has anyone else experienced this? The text is is smaller font than the album titles and not as bold. I am using evil fascination rom btw.

How would i go about checking? I looked through the camera settings and I was not able to find anything related to gps or location tagging.
thanks.

nevermind guys sorry for the dumb question. it seems that the camera automatically tags the location of where the picture was shot when gps is turned on while taking the shot.

[Q] How to geotag photos

Is there a way to enable geotagging of photos in the Atrix camera application?
I've had a look and couldn't find anything so any help would be much appreciated...
Yes, go to tags in the camera menu. It is in there. Took me a couple minutes to find also.

Music stops minutes after screen turns off

I don't understand why 2 minutes aprox the screen turns off.... the music stops.
I already verified In task manager the music application is not in auto-end list.
Any help?

i have the same problem.
So I had this problem for a while. I read on a different forum that there's a bug that links the gallery app to the music app.
Therefore, you need to make sure the gallery app is not under auto kill. Make sure you enable viewing of native apps.

Joelszs,
It works! Thanks.
I removed gallery from autoend list and then the music doesn't stop.
People this is the right solution!

This is awesome I was just about to post about this problem when I saw this. I thought it was something I had frozen in the system apps, glad I don't have to test each application individually that would've been a pain.
Glad I could save you the pain I had. That's why its so important we keep the atrix forums alive!

Any chance you could let me know which other system apps you have on the auto end list? I'm thinking it's still a problem with the auto end because it stops after the screen goes off, so it probably isn't a frozen app, or at least so I think
Try removing all apps from autoend list, and test again.
If works... only add to the list apps not related to music, video and pictures.

it is still working for me as well. I haven't had a single instance of the problem in over two weeks.
Make sure that gallery is still off?

How do you make sure the gallery app is not under auto kill? Is there a special app for this or could this be found in the settings? Sorry for the newbie question. Thanks in advance.
If you open task manager and then press menu, there is an option listed to show all native apps, in addition to the ones you've downloaded. After you enable that, click on the auto end apps. section of tasks manager. gallery should be listed alongside the. camera, etc.

the important is that , MUSIC and Gallery are all not in autoend list.

Gallery Lag.

Does anyone else find that their stock photo gallery sometimes hangs? Sometimes it takes about 5 seconds to open, and other times it just hangs at the "loading" screen.
ps. I've only got about 50 photos in there.

Yes. Mine has delay and lag too. Just bought it yesterday.

I've noticed this problem a few times here and there. I just kill the process using advanced task killer and then its near instant again. I think the gallery just gets stuck at times. You may see it running in the built in task manager then close it and try again. Usually works after the task is killed for me anyway

I get some hangs in the Gallery app too, but not as long as 5 seconds.
What bothers me the most is that after uploading an image through Kies Air, I need to quit the Gallery app completely and reopen it for the new image to show up.
I've also had this problem intermittently. Twice I waited more than a minute and ended up rebooting to get the gallery loading again otherwise it just hangs.

I think you just need to force a manual "media scan" to get image changes to be picked up. The app ScanMedia is great for that purpose
The Gallery pauses are probably due to a background media scan running to pick up image changes on the "sdcard" partition. Google should fix this... esp since HTC Gallery can do the scan without pausing.
yeh I get it to, little annoying but doesn't bother me to much atm
The problem does seem to be intermittent, but it does get annoying when I have to reboot the device to get it to open back up again. Hopefully there will be a patch in an upcoming update.
I have noticed that if I save picture from some wallpaper app or from internet browser, the picture doesn't show up in the gallery. I am not actually quite sure what to do to make it show up. My only solution has been restart or then using some other gallery, like just pictures. Also there I have to press refresh gallery to get the new pics showing. This is annoying as hell.
I have over 200 photos in my gallery also have 10 videos...doest lag or hang for me...

yes QP is great even on the lower spec phones, like my SF, but on the SGS2 doesn't QP break the ability that allows you to set a different wallpaper on the lockscreen ? or are you just running both side by side ?
sometimes gallery doesn't launch the pics at all so have to exit it and re open! only occasionally tho.
Just open quick pic and then long press the picture and select set as, then lockscreen and then poof, it is set
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Agreed, quickpic is awesome.
The gallery app is laggy to open, and then far too fast once it's open, it's like the phone is too fast for it.
Installed quickpic and never looked back.
no, that doesn't work for me..

If I do what you state above all works up to 'set as', the only options i get under 'set as' in QP are to set as QP Wallpaper or contact icon...
Mine lags as well. But not all the time though.

Gallery not working?

For a while now, my gallery hasnt been working. I am using the stock 2.3.4 gallery.
When i open the gallery, all my pictures show up, but when i try to view one of them, a blurred version of the picture shows up with a loading symbol, but the picture never loads.
I dont know what to do and even after several reboots it hasnt been working.
Can someone tell me what is going on and how to fix it?
I'm not sure what it is but since I found quickpic in the market I never looked back. Much faster, full of options. Give it a try!

Hm.. It's not that it goes to the last viewed folder or something? Try pressing the back button.
Or check the hidden folder option in settings.

You may need to go into the QuickPic settings and add the folder where the existing pictures were saved.
I'm not sure what the problem is because the picture thumbnails right showing up but when I try to view them, there is just a loading symbol but it never loads. Honestly this is getting very annoying, now that I haven't been able to view the pics for over a week now.

I seem to have fixed it for now but this has happened before and usually the same problem keeps coming back.
Also, could someone tell me if there is supposed to be a .nomedia file in DCIM> Camera?

Nice. thanks
Radio is now 1.12.11.1119 and 4G is working inside my office building...no more having to go outside it seems.....
Updates to the Gallery. Now when you open it up you can pick the source
Update to the music app. Same with gallery...you can pick the source.
Update to how it handles 4G and WiFi..basically promising to turn them off when it knows it won't need them as opposed to always scanning.
Update to message app. There are more settings for personalization such as changing bubble colors and background
Low res contact fix which is common for all 4.1 I think
Color scheme change from green to blue to match JB
Pin enabled lock screen change
You can open up the maps to see where your pictures were taken
Stock browser has new look and is JB updated
Power saver
Keyboard has been changed up as well. Now can turn off arrows. Can't turn off prediction (well idk how to)
And more stuff...so far what I pointed out is just what I found to be important to me. I just now got to install this >.< I unrooted and updated.
Edit:
The HTC music app widget in the notification area now has the option to go back as well as pause and go forward
Wallpapers no longer scroll (figuring out of this is on purpose or if there's something i need to mess with)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKrJaB6OUvI&feature=youtube_gdata_player If anyone wants to see the update before us rooted people get it. Not my video just throwing that at there.

I was hoping that the ringtone and notification volumes would be separate, but they are not.
Oh well, same old work arounds...
the sound in poweramp mutes temporarily whenver I hit the power button.
Soundhound app button
The soundhound app that was built in now has an icon in the apps tray. Never did before and I had to search for it. I know there was a workaround, I just never got around to doing it.

A feature I noticed when about to go to bed...in the clock app, when setting an alarm, the minutes dial now snaps to 10 minute increments. Pretty convenient compared to the previous endless spinning behavior!
is this the new gingerbread update?
