Are there any recommendations for an app to link with Picasa? It's the one feature I like about AOSP ROM's since I use Picasa for all of my photo storage. I've tried installing the Gallery 3D app from AOSP Gingerbread, but the app force closes on start. I'd love to have a way for my Picasa albums to integrate with the stock app, but can live with it if they dont. I've looked through the market at a few, but couldn't decide which the best option is. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, it is a question, but it's also application related and this seemed like the best section for it.
Picassa tool works very well and it's free

Thanks, I'll check that one out.
Picasa is built into your google + account. As long as your picasa and G+ account are the same you should be able to manage your picasa photos. This is how I have been doing it and its been pretty simple. You also have an album for pics taken on your phone that you can move around.

Hi everybody,
Wondering if anyone know how can I make Picasa Integration on my Atrix?
I was badly surprised not to see that out of the box. Not what you expect to see from Motorola.
Thanks

If you set up a picasa account you will be able to upload to a picasa album (menu --> settings --> accounts --> add account).
You can also google "nexus one gallery apk" and you should be able to easily find the apk for this app. You will need to either root your phone or use sideload wonder machine to install. Once installed it will show all of your albums in picasa.
I just found the answer to this. Look on the Market for an app called (not surprisingly) "Gallery" with the normal Froyo Gallery icon.
As soon as you install it it will ask to use your Picasa credentials to connect to Picasa and voila - you now have local and Picasa pictures in your 3D Gallery just like native Froyo.
Hope this helps.
Thanks, upload action worked but still no Picasa integration in photo gallery.
Wrote a complain to Motorola still waiting for respond.
Thanks

Yeah, but this one is definitely better......
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cooliris.media&feature=search_result
uses the Cooliris skin that the Captivate had and works great to display Picasa galleries - just looked this up earlier because I wondered where my Picasa folders went on the gallery EVEN THOUGH the stupid Moto Blur account listings has my Picasa account sync'd! FOR WHAT if you're not going to display the folders in the gallery???
If this thread is in a wrong location, I apologize.
I am an EVO and Jetstream owner. The Jetstream is my new sole web device. I'm looking for a way to easily sync the pictures between both devices to a cloud service. This would really eliminate the need to transfer pictures from one SD to the other.
I know Photobucket has this option, but I was hoping google Picasa offered it. Or Flickr?anyone have this already set up and functioning?
You can use Picassa, it will sync with all devices using the same account.
Is there a specific Picasa app? There are a few available. HTC has a Picasa plug in for the gallery app under HTC hub, but I didn't see any upload options. I'll look again.

Been working on this for a few days now....
I'm still having difficulty finding out exactly how to sync a gallery and Picasa. I tried photosync which is found on the market and is a nice app, but it that keeps it from successfully syncing for me.
You say you can sync with Picasa... How? What method? My gallery in htc has no such option and I don't see any other apps besides throne I mentioned that does this.
Can you tell me your method?
I appreciate it.
Try google+ its tie into type picassa account and when you take pictures it auto sync rip picassa.
I found out by accident cause I was taken pictures on the phone and for some reason all these pictures showed up on my tablet picassa album. I tracked it down to google+

Well, that solves only half the problem.
Using google plus does sync my library to Picasa, but but it does not sync backwards. Meaning, if I add a picture to Picasa, it doesn't come back down to my Jetstream. Because of this, it doesn't sync my two devices.
Here is what I have tried so far:
1. Google+, works but only one way sync.
2. Froyo gallery 3d apk, gives the option to sync Picasa web albums in settings> accounts & sync > Gmail, but I couldn't get it to sync.
3. Photosync app from the market, worked perfectly but for some reason will only sync 14 photos Lolol?
At this point, idk.
If anyone else comes along with a method, Let me know. Ill be lurking.

On my SGS2 with ICS, I use Android's built in sync from Accounts and Sync, there are two options which seems like they do the same thing: Sync google photos; sync picasa web albums. May you guys know different, see attached.
I use ICS Gallery app to browse my synced photos, and at some point, after a system reset, a strange folder appeared and I can't get rid of it: Scrapbook photos. It doesn't have anything inside and I can't delete it.

Use FolderSync app on both devices. It offers two-way sync between local-remote folder pair (sub-folder is supported). As a remote service, you can use Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, FTP etc with it.
Best of all: It supports filter which means you can use it to hunt down jpg files from entire sdcard too.
Yeah, try Google+ it has unlimited space for pics(I think) and it syncs with the gallery.
Just use Dropbox the more effective way to access pictures from any device.

Google for Sugarsync. It should solve all Your problem. It is specially designed cloud storage for pics&videos (however You can also upload other files). I remember it had about 3GB (not quite sure)

Yeah, but there are just 2 Gb free unless you have S III or you trick Dropbox.
or if you don't want to use any cloud based service:
a simple Python script using ADB Pull and Push

I really like how my photos in picasa and blog spot synced to my gallery in HC...
But somehow it doesn't show up in ICS version? The option isn't even showing in the account setting...
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks...

That sounds like the way to go, however, I'm not rooted. I've avoided rooting this device in fear of loosing 4G data through T-Mobile. Do you think there's any other way to get around this?
Does anyone know how to get albums that are on Google+ to show up in the gallery? I have Google Photos checked to sync, I'm logged into Google+, but when I go to the gallery I get a folder called "My Phone", and I don't see my online galleries anywhere. I can add online galleries from facebook, flikr, and dropbox though.
If there is no way to, can anyone recommend a third party gallery app that has this?

i think that you have to have picasa, the sync feature in google+ is for photos to be uploaded as opposed to downloaded to your gallery.
I didn't have an option for Picasa, but I found that if I download the app "Picasa Tool", it lets me view my Google+ albums and I can share it from within there.

Is there any way to use the default gallery app in Facebook instead of the one Facebook offers? To clarify, Facebook's just shows all the pictures chronologically and not in the albums like in the gallery. In some situations when I want to select an older picture it's difficult to find. This becomes an issue when I am replying and want to use an older picture, but if I'm uploading to my feed I can obviously select from the gallery and hit share. Any help would be nice.

Why not try a new app like Friendcaster. It is better than the official Facebook app. Hope it will solve your purpose.

There are a good number of complaints about us being slow as of late, Facebook already hangs sometimes. And I'm not too into the friendcaster up. Thanks.
