Gallery Woes - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I'm not sure if many others have noticed, but the Gallery app took a huge step backwards from Honeycomb to ICS. The Honeycomb version put your albums/folders in alphabetical order, and also had a nice toggle at the top to view only pictures or videos. All of this is gone in the ICS version. I also use Quickpic, but I find the thumbnails to be kind of small on a tablet.
With that said, I'm kicking myself for not backing up the old gallery apk file from Honeycomb. Does anyone know where I can find this file, or is anyone on HC and rooted who can share it?

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!

quick pick gallery setting

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

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.

+1 for QuickPic
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.
+982343 for QuickPic
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.

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.

[Q] Good gallery replacem for ASOP?

Looking for a good gallery replacement, I do alot of themeing on my phone and it takes the 3D gallery forever to load all my folders. Looking for something more like the sense gallery (I have a thunderbolt) which seems to open and load folders and thumbnails much faster. Any suggestions?

[Q] Replacing gallery inside samsung's camera application

Hey im running a modded ROM based on samsung's stock. one of the things i noticed is that the gallery,contacts and dialer opens real slow..for the contacts and dialer i managed to find great application (Exdialer) but couldnt find one to replace the gallery.
well,i did install the aokp (or aosp?) gallery from the market and it works great,but when i enter the camera application(samsung's stock) and press that little preview of pictures in the left side,it opens the stock gallery(i have tried to freeze it,didnt work) .
i think that samsung's camera application is really awesome but i cant stand the waiting to the gallery to open when i want to see the last picture taken.
any solutions?a way to make other gallery to open when i press that little picture preview? thank you :victory:
I would appreciate this as well. Too bad freezing/disabling doesn't seem to work
you can't
