Is there any app that can help you make folders/photo albums visible?
Default album viewer isn't able to do that (it shows all possible pics on sd card) so i will appreciate any help from you guys.
I too am looking for something like this, found an app called 'justpictures' but i'd still have something more like the htc photo album
Better then album Thanks a lot dude

Try "Picture Folder"
This is best and simple
More along the lines of what I wanted, thanks alot
Are you serious ? On my Mini the pictures are blured (not sharp) on fullscreen view and when viewing with zoom the picture does not load, it is like apliyng digital zoom a small resolution photo. Well, sometimes on some pictures the zoom works and load the full resolution picture but it is slow.
edit: I have found that if i open an album in portrait mode and then turn to landscape mode the pictures are blurier and zoom is not loading 100% resolution photo. Maybe it creates cache for portrait and when turn in landscape mode it uses the same caches(thumbnails at 240x***?) and it looks blurier. For zoom that not work i can't find any excuses.
edit2: It looks like default Album is displaying photos in zoom mode 100% with fewer colors than justpictures. The gradients can be seen. maybe that's why is faster at zooming than justpictures.

I tried a bunch of photo album apps, and the best in my opinion is Floating Image. You can customize which folders you want (my photos albums are simply organised by folders/sub-folders so it's great for me) and the layout is superb. The only problem I have with it is that you can't zoom when vewing photos but I think it's because X10 mini isn't multi-touch : you have to keep pressing on the photo to bring up a menu and open the photo with the default vewing app and then zoom. Besides that, this app is the best.
I think this thread is posted in the wrong section. This should be in Themes and Apps subforum and not in Android Development
QuickPic is my choice for photos, shows photos in folders (can hide specific folders), very fast thumbnail generation, good quality.
What Do You Want Basicaly?
if You Only Want To hide some folders from default pic album than here is the solution..
create .nomedia file from notepad in your system if you dont know hot to create tell me
than place this file into the folder which you dont want to include in your picture album
all pictures in the folder with this file will not be added in your default picture album when you want to add those pictures delete this file from that folder via any file manager simple it is...
.nomedia is not a solution, because it will also prevent player playing music from these folders. Get Just Pictures for free from the market. It allows you to ignore folders you don´t want to show up.
Fish Bowl Photo Viewer is my favourite viewer. It's fast and easy to use and lets you set the default folder to view.

you can use a file explorer
Is there a way to remove the stock camera and gallery, and replace them with the camera and gallery that are in Cyanogen, or another light weight camera / gallery combo? I'm currently running Alien build 3, and hate this damn camera and gallery app. I've got roughly 900 photos split up across 10 or so folders, and the gallery doesn't sort based on folders. The camera app is bulky, takes up too much of the screen and makes it hard to use the screen as a viewfinder.
I don't know a way to change camera app. you have to keep stock gallery to access it from the camera app.
to get the CM gallery app, just extract it from a CM .zip and install it on your device. you can't use it from the camera app but you can for everything else.

easily! just use the app found here:https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cooliris.media&feature=search_result
I noticed that in the Gallery app, the pictures zoom in and out in "stages", thus making it look really like it's heavily lagging - and not like any other phone where zooming is very fluid. Any workaround to make zooming lag-free? Or perhaps there's a better Gallery-like app around in the Market?
quickpic in the market.
You can also get the gallery app that is used on virtually all other android phones on the market. Someone posted an apk for it on the themes and Apps section.

it's called 3d cool gallery ... it's the stock android gallery + some tweaks and sensor motion support...
do somebody know how to integrate that into camera apk ... I'm asking if there is a way to make the camera "call" another gallery apk not the stock one.cause even if you install alternatives ... they will not open directly after a shot but you will need to open the apk directly.very annoying

+1 for that!!! The camera app should ask first time what app you want to use when ticking the recent photos icon... but that is a work for developers (if they want to do it and have time of course!)
I'm using the samsung camera that came with the phone. There is a link on the camera to view your picture gallery, which is nice to quickly review a picture I have just taken. However, I just installed QuickPic which is a 3rd party picture gallery. Is there a way to change which app the camera opens? TIA
i set google photo as defult photo app in the setting. however in the stock camera, after taking photo, the quick view still goes to oppo's photo app. any chance we can change? thanks
