I have PhotoSphere installed and working. But when I upload via Gallery 4.2 and/or Google+ to Google+, it's just a flat image.
What do I have to do to get it to view like Streetsview? I've Googled the crap out of this and apparently nobody on this planet has ever explained how they get Photosphere photos to Google+ to make it work.
So an answer here will be the first for humanity.
Thanks.

Hi, I have the same problem, images uploaded from mobile are flat (via share or via google+ app), have to copy the file to the pc and add them using web brwoser only, only then they look like a photosphere and not flat images.
Please help!!
In case anyone happens upon this thread while Googling for an answer for this, I finally figured this out. You have to email the photo sphere to a Gmail account (likely your own). Then, on your computer, when you open the email there will be a "Share" button beside the image. Share it from there to Google Plus, and you should be golden.
Google clearly didn't quite this one through very well, but hopefully they'll fix it in an update. I'm only running 4.2.1 at the moment, so maybe they already have.
This still happens. However with auto backup it uploads correctly!

Hi, posted this in development by accident! Was meant for this section...
Anyway, I've got this really annoying problem when uploading a file on my phone. If I select ONE picture from the gallery and try to upload it to facebook it tries to upload the whole bloody gallery - All 100+ pictures I have on there. This also happened yesterday when I went to send a friend a picture on Skype - Went to send ONE photo and again, it went and sent every single file in my gallery and I had to go through and cancel them all. To be clear, I hold my finger on ONE picture in the gallery until it highlights blue, then tap the top right and share it through whatever program I want, I assume this is the correct way of doing it?
Is this a bug? Does anyone else have this issue or is it just me?
Thanks.

So, my gallery app is so slow that it is almost unusable. If I open it, I get a bunch of blank boxes that take forever to populate. I think it has something to do with me checking 'sync picasa', 'sync facebook', etc. options when I setup the phone. Can somebody tell me how to unsync these galleries? I went to the Facebook account settings and unchecked sync pictures, but I still have a bunch of albums and it's crazy slow.
Any ideas?
the picasa sync option is in your google account section of the menu.

Yeah, I already ended up unchecking the sync pictures boxes for Facebook and for Picasa. But the albums are still there in gallery. Maybe I should clear data for gallery or something?
the blank boxes... do they every populate?

After waiting a while, and they have the picasa and facebook icons. So it's still pulling my galleries off the web, even though it is no longer synced. I also wiped the gallery app data, and they are still there. I think that is why the app is so freaking slow for me.
you could try uninstalling facebook and try running a 3rd party facebook app. I personally can't stand the stock facebook app for crap like this and the way its always running.
as far as picasa, if you use it, i'm not sure what else could be done. if you dont't use it, you can remove a lot of its functions via the pc. and that would clear that up.
I have a tip for you OP.
Turn off Wifi then try using your Gallery.
Not really a solution for the stock gallery but I've used Quickpic for as long as I can remember and it's always fast, reliable, and no sync issues to deal with. Currently I use that for normal picture management and use the stock gallery in the rare instance I need Picasa or Facebook photos synced.
Yeah I have found I have this issue if I am connected to wifi at my house.. I know the reason too. Looks like the phone is trying to connect to my networks dlna server (plex) which for whatever reason it is unable to do.. I just removed allshare and the problem is gone.. you can either rename the three or so files in your app dir (if you have root) or you can install a ROM as most of them give you an option to not install allshare.

Yep I was just under the assumption that the OP is on stock firmware.
I never loved Sense but I have learned to like it but I have 2 issues:
The main issue is the HTC gallery. I think is junk compared to stock. I have a lot of galleries on Picasa and Drop box. All of my Motorola and Samsung phones that have the stock gallery must store the thumbnails locally where as HTC download them each time. It takes forever to find a picture I am looking for. Also you have no ability to text or email a picture from one of those sources. It only sends a link that does not work unless I give my login and password. I have instead try to open it myself from the browser and then download it and send.
The 2nd is the htc text message app. Every software revision I have tried does it. 1, On the text notification from the lock screen, if someone texts you as part of a group message and you drag it down to directly go to it, it brings you to the single thread you have with that contact, not the recent message. The 2nd issue is many times I open I thread, it starts at the top of the thread. This could be months or weeks back and that scroll bar is a pain in the ass to grab to keep pulling it to the bottom.
Please let me know if anyone knows of a ROM or Mod I can try to fix this. Every Senseless ROM I have tried still maintains the HTC messenger and gallery.
Thanks,
Dave
I know on sense 5 the messaging problems are fixed, but not the gallery issues you listed.

It might be a good thing that the DNA gallery has to download the pics from cloud services each time. I have a Note 2 and it caches Facebook and Dropbox photos and it was filling up my phone memory (you can't switch it to SD card) and the gallery was STILL super slow.
With only 11 gigs of usable space on the DNA, we don't really want it caching all of those photos.
I'm about to smash my Photon and I need some help. I recently upgraded to peetr's custom 2.3.5 hybrid ROM so I could use TMobil. The only camera app I can get to work with photobucket uploading is the stock camera. I've tried 3 other camera apps, and every time I select "photobucket" as the "Share this photo" destination, I get the "Media added to photobucket queue" message....and that's it. No uploading. No errors, nothing. If I use the stock camera to take a pic and select photobucket, it uploads just fine.
The problem is, the stock camera is tied into "Gallery ICS" and I can't separate them. In my previous setup, when I took a pic with the stock camera, then clicked on that pic in the bottom left corner, the pic would pop up full screen and I could check it out and upload or delete it.
In peetrs ROM, when I take a pic and then click on it, it opens Gallery ICS, which then shows me a thumbnail of every fricking folder anywhere on my camera I have a photo saved. WTF? I don't understand why anyone could possibly want that behavior from a camera app, but whatever. I've scoured the settings and I can't find any way to stop Gallery ICS from popping up when I want to view a pic in the camera.
Does anyone know how to fix the photobucket uploading issue or force the camera to just let me view a pic when I click on it?

Just a thought that you could try actually searching the the first post of this ROMS thread. The answer is right there under the optional APKs.
BlurCamera with gallery choice - mainly for Quickpic (pictures must be on internal SD)
That should hopefully fix your issue. I'll test with my photobucket to see if I can make it upload.

I have the new camera working, but when I click on a pic to view it, I get "Media Gallery not installed". This happens regardless of which storage location is selected (internal or SD). Am I supposed to install something else?

If you can't set the photo gallery that launches, I would just move on to trying a different/previous camera. Can you go to manage apps and clear any defaults that would be causing it to only use that gallery?
Sorry, wish I could be more help.

Yes, I've cleared data, it did nothing. I really don't understand how this replacement camera is supposed to work, if it even does. Has anyone here successfully swapped out their stock camera with the one linked in the first post and have it working? If so, could you please respond?
This is the most frustrated I've been in 3 years, 2 cameras and a dozen roms. The stock camera and Camera ICS on this rom blinds everything with the flash making them unusable. This replacement camera doesn't blind everything with the flash, but it throws this damn "Media Gallery not installed" error. I just want crap back like it was, where I had a stock camera with a flash that didn't blind everything and let me open pics to view them without showing me every picture gallery on the camera. Of course I can't go back to that rom since I flashed the KDDI radio.
Here is a full system.img dump from the new Nexus 5 that was released yesterday. Droid Life posted the updated Google Apps here:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/3...-5-dump-search-launcher-and-more/#more-123662
I have Infected Rom on my Rez and updated some of the apps to the latest versions. Google Home (the new launcher) works great. The new Hangouts is now also your SMS app. Gmail, Google Keyboard (with built in emoji plugin), and Google Play Services also work. Google Gallery FC on me, and the new Camera app works, but the new feature (don't know what it is called) FC'ed when I clicked on it. Camera settings is set for 8m pixels, but when viewed in the old Gallery, the pics weren't full size. The pic quality was great, though.
Throughout the day and weekend, REV3NT3CH and I will be testing more new .apk's and will keep you all informed. This system.img dump also includes the build.prop and the boot.img. We are gonna do our best to get either the Nexus 5 system ported over to the Rez, or build straight from AOSP source.
If any other Devs would like in on this, then please PM either REV3NT3CH or myself, and we can go from there.
I am NOT a Dev myself, still learning a few things, but know enough to do what we need to do. Any questions then feel free to ask, and if this thread is in the wrong section then please let me know, or move it to the right section.
Here is the link to the full system dump:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hty7m61cgy16bcq/Nexus 5 dump.zip
Hope this can help get us started for the Rez.
EDIT: My dropbox links are generating too much traffic. Uploading to Mediafire now. Dropbox links are still working currently, though. Once uploaded to mediafire, I will put the links up. Thanks all!
ANOTHER EDIT: Here is the mediafire link for the system dump and the apps.

130 views for this thread so far and no comments? Is development for the Rez really this dead?
Also, here is a link for just the apps if you don't want to download the dump file. Hope this can help some people.

Xda is generally quieter during 9-5 on the east coast.
If you guys can port this to the Rezound, that would be awesome. I've got a port of 4.3.1 running on my Rezound and it runs pretty well. I'm not aware of any inherent reason KitKat can't run (except to the extent that Wallet requires NFC) on Rezound hardware.
REV3NT3CH says he is now syncing the repo for 4.4. We will know soon. Would you like to be a tester, also?

I tried most of these on tachyon 1.2, just quick apk install no real diagnostics. I found the new Google search seems to close right after opening (no fc just closes).
The launcher seems to work but relies on the search piece which generates errors, it kinda works with both installed, but generally needs a Dev to investigate for our devices.
Email app seems to work, but no exchange services tie to it, compared to my other native email app they appear to point to different setting locations.
Clock wouldn't install
Keyboard, Gmail, hangouts, and keep all seem to be fine. Some of the wallpapers are pretty sweet too

Thanks for the info. I haven't had a chance to test out all the apps. You have to install Google Play Services, Google Search, and Google Home to get the launcher to work properly. Voice search part does FC though, but that is the only issue I have found. I installed Google Now to go with it all, and it is sweet, but Voice Search FC's. I think Email and a few others are gonna have to rely on the new services.jar to get it all working properly. Anyone who knows how to read code better than me hopefully will figure it out. I will post more apps and what is working later on today, hopefully.
Try installing Exchange2Google.apk to get the Exchange to work in the new Email.apk.

Giving some of these apps a try on a clean install of carbon.
I can't get chrome or drive working.
They FC immediately. I also tried to install the dialer and framework but package is invalid.
I installed launcher with Google home, prebuilt, and velvet. I haven't tried search yet but am going to do the library tip above.
Thanks for posting the dump. I can't wait until the devs tailor it to the Rez.
Google search works the the .so tip. But the "OK Google" doesn't.
I'd be interested in testing as well.
