Hello,
I am trying to find a replacement app for my gallery. It has to be well put together but the main thing is, it needs to have dropbox viewing. The stock HTC gallery app has it but mine isnt working for some reason. Any ideas?

Have you tried quickpic? its free in the market. I LOVE it and never ran into any issues what so ever.
I tried quickpic but i couldnt find any option to view photos from dropbox. Samething with fish bowl.
Does this really not exist? I am looking for a sollution where photos are located on Dropbox or Google Drive.
I think the thing is that pics stored on g drive or dropbox aren't actually on your phone unless you export them to your sdcard.
Although it would be pretty sweet to have a gallery app link to those accounts/apps I wonder if the issue is actually the available api's?

is there any picasa integration for this HTC flyer?
i cannot find the icon or button, used to be on the gallery on my previous android device (DHD).
i also check the sync and not finding the sync, only the calendar, contact and gmail sync available.
anyone have different experience?
Hi
I have found this also. It's with the 2.3.3, the Picasa integration disappears. I had it on my DHD but after the 2.3.3 update it kept force closing and crashing. I uninstalled the add on and went to re install but the app is no longer available from the HTC Hub/Likes.
Just have to wait and see if they fix it and put it back on!
Hope this helps,

Hopefully this won't be too off-topic, as it seemed worse to start another Picasa thread so soon after this one. But on a similar note, how are you guys accessing Picasa? If I go to Picasa on the stock browser, it forces to the mobile version of the site. Then, when you got view a photo, its tiny and very low resolution. The photo is actually smaller than the thumbnail!
Things look fine in the free Picasa Tool app. But it seems silly to have to use a 3rd party app to use a Google product on an Android tablet. Plus, Picasa Tool has its own flaws. Namely, when you view a gallery, it forces to portrait (does not rotate into landscape), which is pretty annoying if you are viewing photos in landscape mode.
Any workarounds or suggestions?
To be honest I used my DHD for Picasa, until the update lol. Now I'll upload to Picasa but not view, which is a shame as it would be ideal to take with you and be able to show off your pics.
I tried the Picasa tool but didn't like it, as you said weird to have a 3rd party app on an Android tablet!
I have just ended up adding all the pics on Picasa to the Flyers external SD, duplicating the pics but at least they are full size and easily accessed.
I am really hoping they fix the add-in soon as it was great to have Picasa there as an extension of my albums!
yeah im really hoping there's an access to the picasa web album from my flyer, it's a great tablet
SOL
On my Nexus One my Picasa folders just showed up in the Gallery. I had assumed that it would be the same on the Flyer but not so. I really miss that functionality, it was so seemless.
Since the N1 is running 2.3.4 it's not an Android thing, it's the way HTC has implemented their version of the Gallery app. I really hope they get that upgraded soon.
I also thought so. Try to reduce dependency from google maybe?

More likely some kind of deal with Flickr, I'm guessing.
There is an app called Gallery 3D https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cooliris.media - I think it was ripped from Nexus One, but i seamlessly integrates with my Picasa albums

Anyone here a part of it? I'm actually loving it right now. The fact that I don't really need to worry about sdcard space saves me. I can just stream my music to my phone since I always have an excellent wifi/4g signal. It can automatically copy your itunes/windows media/etc.. playlists and settings and this is a plus. What do you guys think?
I also love the service, but the app itself could use some work. it is a bit wonky.
Biggest pain was getting my 50gb music collection uploaded. Glaring issue is that I need to organize my music better.
Yeah I have It, but I think the app needs an overhaul.

I have been on Google Music Beta for about 2 months. The only problem is that it would not sync my iTunes acct. I contacted Google and they asked me to send the crash log (don't know why I didn't just send that with the initial email) but they have not yet gotten back to me. I have just about given up on Google Support as I have sent them 4 emails in the last month. It would be perfect if I could get this to work on the E3D.
I had the same issue but when I cleared data it began to work flawlessly.

I've been using it as well, but noticed that the Music Manager can be quite finicky with the uploads. There's definitely been many songs that haven't uploaded for no apparent reason.
also, i wish we could upload lossless (flac) and not have it converted to mp3.
other than that, i've been pretty happy with it.

I agree, i love the concept but the app could really use some work. I really like the native music player on the phone.
Also the album art is a joke. I now have Pitbull as the default album art for everything.

i did 21gb and that was a pain, so i can imagine how much waiting you did with the 50.
Can you send out invites like everything else Google? I signed up for it like 2 weeks ago and nothing.

No it doesn't let you send out invites....you just gotta wait to get yours...it took me like two months and I know some people who got it in two weeks ...and they requested their invite much later than me.....
I like Google music but the Android app could use some work...better app optimization when scrolling through tracks, albums or artists.....right now it just lags when you scroll.....Also for some reason the tracks in some of my albums do not get sorted by lowest track number to highest .....
Other than that its great.
it's nice and it's growing on me, but here are my quirks
You aren't able to download your music. As far as I know this can only be done on your phone. It's nice that it's in the 'cloud'; however, I still need to maintain a copy on my computer if I need to transfer it to some other device or media that doesn't have the ability to connect to GMusic.
Better online sound quality. Over the phone it seems to sound much better than through a web browser on my pc.

One thing I noticed is that even if I have "Sync music" unchecked in my Accounts & Sync settings, the Google Music service will sometimes still start itself up without me ever opening the app. Happens about half the time I do a reboot.
I'm using the service as well and I really like it. On my original evo I had a issue with it constantly disconnecting from my gmail account. Now with the 3D I haven't seen that problem yet

Sup guys, quick question, does anyone have Google music up and running completely on R.G. 2.1 or Virtuous Unity Sense ? I have the music manager set up on my laptop, I downloaded the app from the market,but when I go to Menu/settings/Sync, there is no option to sync music or is this an option at all ? I hope that I'm posting this in the right forum, thanks in advance for your help....
Thing I hate is sometimes for no reason the music manager will give me errors for music i'm trying to upload. Then a few days later I look at it when im about to upload something else and all of the errors that were there are gone and the songs have actually downloaded. That and the fact that sometimes it duplicates music.
I sync my gallery with Picasa using Photosync by Akira Soumi. But the gallery puts my pics out of chronological order/doubles pictures.
I'm supposing this is because of the slowmo SD read times...?
Does anyone else have this issue or it is only me? I use my gallery extensively on both EVO and Jetstream. But the jetstream gallery has been frustrating me the last week or more this way.

Liberty ROM Toolbox lets you increase read speeds on the SD.

Hello
I'm a noob with a rooted HTC One that I just bought. I have very little experience with rooted phones. Never owned one before and never rooted anything.
My phone is working well except that when I take pictures or video, they disappear. They don't show in the gallery. I can find them in the file system using a file explorer. I cannot make new Gallery folders either. I tried installing 3rd party apps and they don't work either. Maybe the file system did not get properly configured. Is there a way to do a fresh reinstall of the default Gallery app? Or are you aware of a Gallery app that will completely install its own system that might work?
I am on android 4.3.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Mike
Try quickpic, it's free in the playstore.. Not sure what's going on with your gallery to be honest. But I only ever use quickpic gallery on my phones..

I'm not loving the stock gallery app on the Z2 because of the lack of ability to make folders. So I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions for a way to fix this or a better gallery app.

You can use Quickpic, but you won't have X-Reality.

I don't think lack of X-reality is the main problem.
QuickPic is great and can be linked to your camera app too. However, due to KitKat limitations, you won't be able to delete/move/edit pics via QuickPic if images are on microSD.
If you're rooted, then not a problem.

Google's policies for Kitkat are insane, Apple style.

Agreed rooted does bypass the annoying SD issues of Kitkat but devs are already wising up to this. Whilst Quickpic and others can delete,edit etc, some apps already can such as ES File explorer.
i.e. made my SD card the default for the camera. Took some pics. Used Quickpic to view and delete some. It appears deleted but reopen Quickpic and the pics reappear. Strangely enough, even via PC it didnt show all the pics that the phone was showing (nothing hidden etc) however using Es File Exp i was able to delete the unwanted pics.

You need to edit the platform.xml file under system/etc/permissions/ in order for any "USER" app to edit the external SD card.
This is a KitKat issue (not Sony).
Google for instructions.
Another alternative : Gallery Google as on Nexus 5,bonus : you can watch photospheres you made with Google camera from Play Store.
Nice extra to have on your Z2.
The only problem is that it is mixing random pictures in camera folder. There should be a different folder for the pictures taken be the camera.

Collections?
The other option is just to use Play Memories Collections instead of folders. Yes, this uploads your photos to Play Memories as well, but it does at least allow you to group and categorise the photos on your phone.
