Hi everyone. I have a question that hopefully you can help me with. With my S3 and Note 2 i was able to combine gallery folders with the same name to organize my gallery and make it less cluttered. I can't seem to do that with the S4. Am i missing something or has this feature been removed? Thanks in advance

Use a file manager.
Never mind figured it out. Just in case anyone wants to know: go into the gallery and into an album then check the pic or pics you want then long press them and drag them into the album you want.

Yeah.that's exactly what I want to know.
Is there a way to set which folders to look for when importing photoes to the gallery.!

Kii safe works to hide pics.
Create a blank file with no extension called ".nomedia", without quotes but don't forget the period at the beginning of it, and put that file in the same folder as the images you want to hide, bam, all your porn is safe from appearing in the gallery.

Rename any folder by putting a period in front of the name and it won't show up.
I use QuickPic for my gallery, it's a great deal faster and lets you hide whichever folders from a menu when you longclick the album.

Hey guys, sorry but i'm a new Android user, and I seem to be having problems with my gallery.
There seem to be hundreds of images of buttons, Facebook buttons etc appearing in gallery, making out very difficult to navigate through, to find an image.
Does anyone have similar problem? And how do you resolve it?
I'm running on unrooted Droid 2.3.5, with the recent ota update. Images ate stopped on media card.

Sorry but still getting used to Swype. I meant images are stored in media card.

The built-in Gallery App that comes with the phone is pretty basic. Because of the issue you mentioned, I switched to QuickPic.
You can tell it to only show certain directories, and it has several other features that the built-in Gallery is missing. Check it out - it's free and downloaded over 1 million times.
there has got to be something that can fix the default gallery app. I like it, but I hate that the gallery is so damn CLUTTERED. I cant even find a picture i took last week because its showing ALL of my damn cached images...
NOT cool, moto.
im actually using the old gallery app off my moto defy. much better with out the clutter
Thanks for the tip. Will download it asap.

Welcome to the Motorola picture gallery app. Same thing happened on my old Droid X. About 50 icons from my Pharmacist Letter app appear in my gallery.
You can organize pics into albums that you name. It's kind of a workaround. But yes, the gallery app will show any pic stored on the internal phone as well as micro sd card.

Hi.
Ive been searching around to find either a gallery or an app that would show me my dropbox videos and pics in the gallery without copying them tovthe device.
I have a samsung galaxy s3 i9300 and a dropbox account. But would like to see my dropbox photos in the gallery.
Ive used foldersync from the market but that just copys the files across so not what im looking for.
Ive heard that the note 2 has this function and also htc sense.
Another thing to note is that the main reason i am reasearching this is because i am making the move to the nexus 4 so would have to work with that.
Cheers

I'd like to know about the chances of getting this done, as well.
Hi
Is there a way to get drop box photos to show up on the stock gallery app? I have my Google+ ones showing up but no amount of messing with settings gets the drop box ones to show up, BTW I have noticed that my drop box sync is off in the phone settings but I can't get it on. Any help appreciated.

You can turn on the sync in Dropbox settings..Turn on Camera upload. It will then upload any photos you take to Dropbox

I'm not sure where the camera looks for pictures exactly, but I think it shows pictures from any folder on my phone.
Maybe there is a .nomedia file in your DropBox folder?

No there is no way to show the photos from dropbox in stock gallery.
Only from Google+ and Picasso.

I have instant upload switched on and 100's of photos on drop box.
Could someone do me a favour and check if they can actually see there dropbox uploaded photos in the gallery and also check the S3's settings/ accounts/ dropbox and see if sync is enabled? Thanks.
This is a galaxy note 2 feature that you only can hope it will be brought to the s3 in the next update! Much like multi window and wave-your-hand-on-the-screen-to-view-clock-and-other-notifications.
No promise anything will be ported though so don't get your hopes up...

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.
