[Q] Image search app that appears in the gallery choice menu - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know there are tons of image search apps in the Play Store. But I've been trying to find one that comes up in the choices when you try to attach a picture in an application.
For ex, I have a note taking app that allows me to insert pictures in the app. When I insert a picture, the popup menu comes up with the different gallery choices I have on my phone (in my case I have Samsung Gallery, 4.2 AOSP gallery and Quickpic). What I'm looking for is an app that would appear in this menu so I can search the internet directly to attach the picture instead of going into an image search app, downloading the pic, then going back to my note taking app and inserting it. So basically I'm looking for an app that would allow me to skip the downloading the pic to my SD Card part and to attach the pic directly.
Tried Droid Iris, Image Search and many others but so far none of those apps come up in the gallery choice menu.
Anybody knows of an app that does this??

[Q] Changing Default Gallery Application

Is there a way to change the default gallery in CM6.1? I want to use QuickPic and I want the Camera App to open it when I hit the picture button at the bottom. Is this possible? Please help me out. Stock Gallery is so slow and I'm unable to choose folders when I'm trying to change Icons on LauncherPro.
I would love to find a way to do this too.
Me too. The stock gallery is very slow and I want QuickPic to be launched instead when I press the gallery button in the camera app.
Try clearing the defaults at setting application for the HTC gallery and try to open a pic..u will get a prompt check the set as default checkbox and select QIckPIC

How to clear the default picture viewer?

I have chompsms and I completely forgot what client I set to view pics with but when I look at pics that someone sends me mms they look super small. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

well they will generally always look small if you view the picture from the message since most phones resize images to minimize the amount of data that needs to be transferred for the MMS.
So the best way to view pictures from pic messages is to long-press the picture and select Save to SD Card or whatever it says
then
go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
and go to Gallery and Clear Defaults
if you have any other gallery applications, like QuickPic, do the same for that.
then when you click the picture it should ask which gallery you want to use to view it.
i recommend using QuickPic since the stock Gallery on 4.5.91 Android 2.3.4 is awful.

Gallery Options with Cradle

I really like the Sony Cradle, but there's one thing that's been bugging me since I got it.
I'd really like to use my tablet as a photo frame when it's in the cradle, and there's the Gallery app to do just that. But unless I'm missing something, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of settings.
Rather than just pulling in any photos it finds, I'd like to just display a specific folder of images (In an ideal world, it'd hook into Flickr and pull a particular set in, but that's probably asking too much).
Failing that, it'd be great if other applications - including an alternative "gallery" app - were available.
Other options should include duration between pictures, selection of transitions, how to deal with photos of different ratios, and choosing whether to pan/zoom or not.
Has anyone got any solutions?
install quickpic (alternative gallery, fast and free, lets u define paths)
go to settings, applications, gallery
clear defaults
see if quickpic now comes up as option when u dock
Any word on how this worked? I'd like to have something like this, but can't try it until I get home.

edit:
tried it. still only gives the same options. =\
QuickPic is indeed a much nicer program than Gallery, although it could do with some transitions.
Unfortunately, only the three "official" Sony apps come up as options to auto-start when you dock in the cradle - Clock, Gallery and Chumby.
I'm not sure what special inclusions are required for third-party apps to work like that...
Well, quickpic needs some development
Quickpic is nice, but still, what's bugging me is:
"Can't sync Picasa or Facebook or other web albums!"
An app where you could choose whatever album you wanted (including Picasa) I would give a fair amount of money for.

SGS3 Wallpaper won't change

All of a sudden today I can't change my wallpaper to a pic from my Gallery. Tried from stock Wallpapers still couldn't, I changed to a Live one and it worked. Tried rebooting, shutting down turning back on and still happening. Another weird thing, when I select the section of the pic and hit save, it generates a duplicate but cropped image as another file...so the wallpaper that I wanted instead becomes another cropped image. Never seen anything like this.
Wallpaper to your home or lock screen? if it's the lock screen that won't change are you probably using a launcher? if so turn off your launcher and go back to TouchWiz first then change it from there also use the default gallery viewer.
Thanks for that, I made the original Gallery default app instead of gallery3d from S2. Shame though, I don't mind using the S3 gallery except that that the sharing options are lacking. Has every option except Messaging, Email etc. The most popular choices are missing even if I choos 'More'.

[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
