So apparently the photo gallery will only show pictures you take with you camera. So where are the other photos like screen shots and saved imaged from texts and the internet. I cannot locate them. Is there a 3rd party photo gallery app we can download to view these photos?

Press the "My Photos" slide in the main gallery. It will take you to album view where you can see screenshots and downloads.
Sorry to hijack is there any way to get rid of the Facebook photos inside the gallery I hate that thanks for the answer if there is one?!

I've read this is a bug that HTC is aware of but have also read that HTC support told a user this is normal operation. If you are rooted you can freeze "Facebook for HTC Sense" which stops the photos from populating your gallery but still leaves a blank "Friends" panel...which I think is better than nothing.

Good to know. I'm having connectivity issues as wellso I may swap to an s4 if it doesnt get better soon.

Anyone have HaxSync working? I loved this app on my Epic 4G, it would download high-res contact photos from Facebook and use them instead of the low-res ones from Google.
Every time I try to set it up I get the annoying "Unfortunately HaxSync has stopped"
I got it to work no problem, but it has the same crappy quality pictures that come with the FB app contact sync.

Yeah, I don't get it. On AOSP with Haxsync the pictures were beautiful. On Sense 4 it's just garbage, even when manually choosing the "Haxsync" picture in the inividual contact settings.
yup same problem here. strange how it worked on ics leaks and kangs but on an official shipped ics, it doesn't
I too am interested in this...
On ViperRom right now, it is not giving me higher quality images.
ALTHOUGH... I seem to remember before I rooted that it DID give better pics?
Ok I was able to get it to install. Had to uninstall, reboot (probably to clear the cache), then re-install.
It's not syncing my contacts though (0 contacts shown in Sense People) but it looks like that's a problem with everyone right now according to the HaxSync Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/HaxSync
Ok just checked their Facebook Page seems to be up and running. It's also downloading high res photos on my stock rom
Working for me

Yes. You have to switch the photos though manually to use the haxsync photo instead of the Google photo.
This works for me too. Super annoying to have to manually switch pictures on every contact. Has Anyone figured out how to set haxsync pics to default?

This hides my personal fb photos only. I believe the op is referring to having every fb friend's pictures in your gallery in albums. I have friend's and pages liked pictures in my gallery. I haven't found a way to turn that off. If I wanted to view friend's picture crap, I can use the fb app. HTC should have left my gallery alone. :thumbdown:

I don't having facebook syncing with contacts. I'm not sure I even have it set to automatically update. Then again, I loath that thing.

It will upload your friend's picture as soon as you log into the facebook app or sign in with blinkfeed. Even with sync turned off in the settings menu. The only safe way, use the web browser.

In the photo albums only. Your contacts will be fine so long as you tell facebook to not sync the contacts. I dislike that too.

I'm not a huge WP fan, but they really got the contacts/photos system right.

May I suggest just pictures from the play store as a nice uncluttered gallery app. You can add services to it or more importantly not add them.
i changed to Quickpic myself ... awesome gallery app
According to an article I saw on android central HTC is supposedly considering implementing a toggle for facebook photos in the gallery in the next update.

So I love this phone but just hooked up my dropbox to it. And I noticed whenever I take a Zoe, it uploads like 20 pictures to my DropBox account! Anyone know a way around this? I'm assuming it's a problem with the way Zoes are stored on the One
Yup. Turn off auto-sync of your photos from dropbox or the auto upload in the camera settings should do it.
Kind of sucks though... Won't be able to back up my pictures now
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Wow. That is an issue. Just had to delete a ton of photos from dropbox because of that. Probably never would've noticed if I hadn't seen thus post.

Does anyone know how to stop the galley from showing Facebook photos without removing Facebook? So far that's the only thing I hate about this phone.

I don't have the HTC One in my hands yet but I am running Sense 5 on my HTC Evo Lte. Open up your gallery and click on the settings button, under the online services you should be able to unselect Facebook so that you don't have a million pictures in your gallery. Hope this helps.
There is currently no way to not have all those annoying FB updates in your gallery on the One. I posted on HTC's FB page about this issue, their response was to press My Gallery. This is the most frustrating thing about this phone. I didn't buy the HTC First because of the FB integration. Essentially this phone has the same downside.

I was wondering why the pictures of my contacts look like dots. It's like the image is broken up into dots, anyone else experience this?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
That's just how they are if you don't have the contact linked to a social networking profile or choose your own picture from the gallery.

That is when the sync picture resolution is not big enough to prevent the picture blurr. That is why I think they use dots to display it.
hey bro i had the same problem... if u transferred the contact from a different phone by HTC transfer tool, this what u will get............
best solution is change your contact to gmail account (no more on phone) and change the contact pictures that u want with pictures from gallery for one time (i know its sucks).... also if u have some of ur contact linked to facebook, that should update ur friend pictures without dots
Actually, there are issues with gmail as well. Check out this long thread over at Adroidcentral about the issue:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-one/270273-contact-picture-issue.html
I setup all my contacts on gmail.com and uploaded hi res images (some 3000x3000!) and they still show up dots. I'm just living with it right now until I get the urge to move all my contact photos locally to the phone.

here's what I did
open the contact touch the picture it gets larger with a setting in the bottom right corner. Choose that and then from the choices choose phone and the picture cleared right up. Did not work with every picture so I deleted those and got new one's from gallery / facebook or where ever.
