Hello.
i have install program from the SD memory and some of the pictures displayed
in the album.
is there any were to hide the pictures or remove them without getting error on the software.
Thanks in advance
Search the Market for hide photos, I'm sure there are a few options
you can create an empty text file (using notepad), call it ".nomedia" and remove the ".txt" extension.
Place this file where you want pictures/audio to be ignored...
works for me.
I tried to upload a sample file, but for some reason, I can't, but it is pretty straight forward.
Thanks For the Help. but when i copy the txt-nomedia nothing is happening- i can still see the files
Or, rename the folder the pics are in to .(name here)
Android ignores folders that have a (.) as the beginning character
wow it works but the program wont open :/
thanks anyway. i learned something new

Oh well that seems to be a problem. I suggest you email the developer and ask him to put it so that the pics don't show in the gallery. It has a simple fix on his part
Yes, Maybe i will do it.
Thank you For you Help
maybe some how i will learn how ti use the commands in Linux

Try File Manager. I can see the .nomedia file using it.

Any way to get date and/or time in the file names for pictures? Sorry if this has been discussed already I didn't find anything in a search.
bump for my own question...
I dont think there is a way to do exactly that, however, if you open up Gallery > Click on a picture > Click on More --> It tells you the date and time when the picture was taken AND it lets you edit the Picture File Name. A simpler way to do that ( On a Mac atleast) is to use Automator to rename the files after they have been imported from the phone.
Thanks for the answer. I'll find an automated program to rename them using the metadata on the pictures.
I had a photo of my friend and i kept it as his contact image.Now that photo was accidentally deleted and i don't have it any more.But that image is still visible in the contacts.Is there a way to bring that image back form the contact data?
Using root explorer or any file manager
Go root>data>data> com.android.providers.contacts>database>contacts.db(copy this file to sd card)
In this contacts.db file all information about your contacts is stored
Now how to extract image from this database file i don't know
You can see all your contact names and number using sqlite but no idea about image
we should polite enough to press thanks for everyone helped uS..
you are dead when you stop learning new things..
thank you
thanks for the info ...... but i need the image ....!!!
Hi, i wanted to ask you, where can u find the contacts stored on the phone, i tried searching data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts.db (i searched on ES file explorer) but when i search nothing shows up, also tried going in the data folder but it's empty. Any help would be aprecciated, thanks in advance.
