quick pick gallery setting - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

if im in the wrong here for a new thread, please delete it.
I think everyone can agree that the standard gallery on the atrix isnt the smoothest. Many people like me, are using quick pic. Awesome app!
My question is, how do you make that gallery the default gallery when coming straight from the camera interface? (selecting the little pic on the bottom left)
I didnt think it could be done but now im using greyblur and the dev has somehow managed to place the google 3D gallery in its place!
Any chance of putting quick pic there instead???

anybody? This gallery is driving me nuts

I hunted around in older CM 6.2 ROMs (circa Tazz V20), but was unsuccessful - probably I didn't try hard enough.
I did find a copy here in this AF post.
Seems to work OK on my phone (GSB1.4, light testing). Shows up in the Application Manager as "Camera v 2.1-update1", but the icon in the App drawer looks identical to the 3D Gallery Icon.
Dunno if there is a newer version.
yeah, I like the 2d gallery better. the 3d gallery on the eris really stinks man. Too much lag and it takes forever to load anything. I don't know why these developers keep putting the 3D version instead of the 2D or leave both of them in there so we can choose. Thats why I like the TenzoRCmix rom, it gives you both to choose from.
Unfortunately tho, unless I really just couldn't figure it out, when you use 2d gallery to pick a wallpaper or such it shows every single photo in one folder rather than seperating folders like in 3d.
With like 1,000 photos on my phone that gets reaaaaaaally annoying
Here is a flashable one that removes Gallery3D and installs the the 2D Gallery.
I love the speed of the 2D gallery but canteen live without the group by folders/date in the 3D gallery. It takes FOREVER to find a particular picture in the 2D gallery. If the pic you want is at the bottom you have to scroll through all your pics and there is no grabby scroll bar.

I use the My Movies Android app to synchronize with my 1000-movie My Movies computer database so you can imagine how many photos are on my SD card with the DVD covers, etc. 3D Gallery is therefore a must for me!

Will this flashable zip work with KaosFroyo v39? I've been looking to get rid of the 3D gallery and cant figure out if I need a special package for KF. Thanks!

If the 3D pics are displayed in 3D, then the gallery is pointless. Isn't it kind of ironic that that gallery is called the "3D" Gallery?
is there a way we can make sub folders in the stock gallery.
You can in Quick Pic but again it wont show the 3D ones

I used to use the 3D gallery but I have a lot of picture folders and it would arrange them in some entropic order sometimes and got too annoying so I switched to Quickpic. I was going to install Quickpic on my 3vo but the new HTC gallery is a huge improvement. The most important feature, it starts with the most recent pictures. That was so annoying with the old gallery app. You'd spend 30 seconds scrolling to your recent pictures.
Bahahhaha youre kidding me right? That has to be worst gallery ever made, its what cm7 uses.
3D gallery runs crappy even on this phone. I still have folders loading pics long after I opened the app. Uninstalled.
Im pretty content with the HTC gallery included with the 3VO.
Thanks for the link.
What bothers me the most about HTC gallery is that when you click on a photo or a video in the gallery, there is no option to delete.
This is regression from Google's stock gallery because when I have 5 very similar pictures, I need to be able to compare them by swiping through them and then deleting those that i dont like. Having to go back to the thumbnail view is terrible because I cant tell which one I decided to delete.
I started a thread on this in the HTC forum - please add your feedback there if you agree: community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/138/p/12583/53177.aspx#53177 (cant post proper links yet)
Never mind
You have to tap the image instead of hitting the menu button.

Hey!!! now I know your ID on both forums!!!! lol
To the opp....sorry the new gallery that comes with the 3D is good enough....fast....and I just don't see a need to load another app that does the same **** I can do with the one that comes stock.
It is nice and fast indeed, but it doesnt show 3d content properly
I dont really have a performance problem with HTC Gallery.

Best gallery app?

Can anyone recommend a good gallery app, paid or free. I installed gingerbread and although I like the new gallery it's just so slow. It never loads all the thumbnails so I can't tell what each picture is without pressing it.
I appreciate any suggestions.

I use QuickPic -- its free on the market. Great gallery app, fast, smooth, loads up images in NO time.
I'm using Gallery+ right now cuz I hate 2.3.4's Gallery, gotta try that QuickPic one.
I use Quickpic. Love it.

will have to check it out; i HATE that the new gallery is all timecode based; i have all my pics (i am a published pro photographer and cameraman) organized meticulously and the new gallery wont let me just see everything in the old froyo file system. plus it is (WAY) slower and will not properly load thumbnails so 95% of my shots (which i keep in full res on the external SD card) show up without a thumbnail or title.
totally unacceptable to me. also i dont do social networking (AT ALL, i call/tango/skype if needed and talk or text but i prefer REAL human interaction) so tagging etc is useless for me.

Super fast, and also renders images you use for WALLPAPER without any quality loss; if you set a wallpaper using the stock gallery vs quickpic you will see a stark difference.

yep, i noticed this straight away, with the wallpapers, and luckily quickpic does them perfectly, best gallery ive used.
Is the crap quality wallpaper thing a problem with the atrix gallery app or is it the same on other phones?
You guys are all correct, Quickpic is great. I need to start recommending it to people. Thanks again.

Another vote for Quickpic here... Flashed 2.3.4 a few days ago and I have been more than disappointed with the new stock gallery app. Quickpic is definitely the answer. It organizes everything for you.
Sent via Motorola Olympus
Quickpic has my vote! So much easier to use!
Agreed quick pic is great but I also use b and b http://gallery.breadandbuttertool.com/ which has better folder options in certain circumstances imo. Those 2 though are all I need really!
quickpic!!
Quickpic is about the best.
But one feature that they ALL lack is an ability (option) not to recursively show subfolders.
ie, I have a folder called pets, and inside two more called cat, and dog. From the main gallery I only want to see pets and any images in pets. If I want to dig into cat or dog, I want to see those as subfolders. Just like folders in Windows.
If you like the idea of this, send an email to the author of quickpic. I requested this and he likes the idea. He said maybe if more people request it.
Okay, my personal mission aside.
Has anyone frozen (TiBu) the stock gallery app? I don't like it, and I'm tired of it littering my /sd with cache folders all over the place.
Yet another vote for quickpic.
Hey guys. I did a factory restore on my phone for reasons unrelated to the gallery, but when it was done, the factory gallery now works flawlessly. It loads up almost instantly and the thumbnails are perfect. I still think I like quickpic better, but I thought I would let you guys know what happened.

I have tried a few gallery apps because i totally hate the stock gallery app as well. I love how smooth QuickPic is. They recently released a latest version of this app, making pinch to zoom look like eye candy.
Have a look at this youtube link and see for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQdOwRCh__g
*Note: This is the old version of QuickPic though....the latest version is WAY smoother.

Gallery help

Is there a way to get the gallery to work like it did on the Droid X? When I want to select a wallpaper or change an icon it shows me everything on my sdcard. I would like it to show me the list of folders so I can choose where to look. Can anyone out there help, I just received my DroidX2 today and this is driving me crazy when trying to set an icon or wallpaper as it list almost 5000 items.
Gallery 3D
Does gallery 3D let you find your images via folders when changing and icon and wallpaper? This new gallery is terrible, I do not want to scroll through 4739 images to find the one i want for an icon or wallpaper.
That's why I recommended it...
Install it and give it a try. With that many folders and pictures it will take a long time to load fully the first time. After that it should be good.
Thanks downloading it now and installing it. Here's hoping it works, this new gallery BLOWS LOL! If it will download that is another issue with this Droid X2 half the time downloads don't seem to work and I have to reset the phone to get them working again sometimes reset multiple times, and I have 4 bar 3G. I miss my Droid X.
Well I have restarted my phone 3 times have all bars 3G and the file still will not download. I never had these problems on my X.
I would try clearing data on your market app. You won't lose anything except the "Automatic Updating" for each app.
You rock. Gallery 3d finally downloaded, and it does what I want for wallpapers and icons. WOOHOO! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
How do you clear market app data?
Settings - Applications - Manage Applications - All Apps - Market - Clear Data
Thanks again. This will make the phone a little easier to bear I wanted the Bionic LOL.
No problem. The Blur gallery is cool if you only have pictures from your phones camera, but totally unacceptable otherwise.
I think the Bionic people are gonna feel stupid when the Prime and some other phones hit soon. It's not that much better than our phone, save the LTE. Especially if you flash a ROM, such as Eclipse. Runs very smooth and fast. And a replacement laucher like Launcher Pro is a must.
Good luck.

[Q] Joelz ICS ROM Questions

I'd like to start off by saying these are just things I have noticed and am wondering if they are being worked on or if there is nothing to do about it. I'm not trying to complain but I cannot post in the Dev forum yet so I'm posting here trying to figure out the answers.
1. Is there any way to take advantage of more screen? there is a good 1/4 inch of space at the top and bottom of the screen that you cannot use. The only reason I can think of that there would be so much space is because of the remove button on the top when you drag widgets.
2. Google Talk does not work for me by any means. If I try and log in it says I'm offline and when I click on my user name it says that it had a problem and force closes. Anyone else experiencing this?
3. How hard would it be to add virtual looping to the home screens? that is by far my favorite feature of Launcher Pro along with transition animations.
4. When will the dock and icons preferences be fixed?
5. What is the issue with the camera? Is it just the 3D? or is it because the EVO is supporting 3D the drivers are weird to handle?
I'll probably have more questions so I'll update later. I have searched the Joelz ICS thread for these answers and didn't come up with anything. I hope someone could help me with at least most of these questions. I understand programming but I'm not an android developer so keep that in mind. Thanks in advanced

1. I don't get what you're saying by that. In the launcher preferences you can disable the persistent Google search widget so that will open up a tiny bit of space but let's be honest... it doesn't make that much of a difference.
2. Google Talk doesn't work. I'm pretty sure Joel just added it in with further plans for it.
3. The launcher being used is CM's CM9 launcher, Trebuchet, and they have stated that it's in their plans to add in endless scrolling.
4. Again, this is up to CM for when they finish up the first release of the launcher since it's v0.1 alpha right now. Couple of releases off of being added in, and god knows how long til it's 100% functional. CM is generally quick.
5. It'll be just like the long haul that was getting camera to work on 2.3.x when that was the newest that we had. The camera has extremely odd drivers and it is much easier to fix/re-write for a single camera than two, of which 3D is it's purpose... I think we will have to wait on CM to fix up the camera drivers for ICS before we see any real progress in that department. I'd say camera is a long way off. :l
Hope that helps you to some degree!

That did help a lot thanks. For the first question yeah you can disable the persistent search bar but it doesn't seem like you gain that space back. Its just empty space then. Can't even resize widgets to go all the way to the top. I would say I lose almost an inch of screen space which is significant to me at least. I like my clock widget to be at the very top but on my phone it looks like its in the middle.
for question 5. So your saying even non 3D will be a while for the ICS ROMs?
Thank you for your help I really appreciate it
You can try another launcher. Go launcher works pretty good with Joelz ics rom.
And yeah, you don't get any space back when removing the search bar. That's there for the buttonless phones.

Yeah I feel like running a different launcher kind of takes away from ICS. I am hoping to keep it as my default launcher. but if no development is made I'll probably go to Launcher Pro
