I like the stock gallery app. My issue is that it is keeping my album art in its own album (1separate album per cd), so it is making my album view pretty extreme. I know I can sort the view some but it does not limit the amount of albums.
Anyone know of a setting to limit this from being viewed in the stock gallery or another app that may help?
Thanks

You may want to try Quickpic from the market. I am not sure if it has the same limit issue, but imo it's much faster and better organized than the stock gallery app.
It's one of the first apps I install when I get a new phone.

+1 for QuickPic.
It really is the fastest gallery app around. If you don't mind the fact its UI is minimal, and that it doesn't have the AllShare DLNA baked in, give it a try.
QuickPic is my favorite gallery app by far! ICS Gallery has potential but not quite there yet, although I'd imagine an iteration of that is what's on the GS3. But yeah, QuickPic > *
Thank you all. I am ill give it a shot.

Is there any way of hiding some pictures in the gallery app? I've got a bunch of pictures that's not supposed to be in there like album art of mp3s... I hope there's a way to hide 'em.
Download Quickpic from the market its free & much better than the stock one! It can do what you are wanting to do, plus more :0) hope this helps

There are a few apps in market that will do it... one that I can think of off top of my head is vaulty free.
Pandora is another app that allows you to set up a password protected private directory for those images you do not want to be seen.

I've been using QuickPic from day 2 and I never know off its ability hiding any pic.
As far as I know I haven't seen anyone post anything concerning this. I used the nexus one before coming to gs2 and it's gallery was smooth. Is there anyway to fix this? Or is it just me.

My gallery works great. You might try going to settings, applications, all, gallery, then clear data. This should just clear the thumbnails. The OS should rebuild the database for the gallery the next time you use it, but after that it should be smooth.
I would recommend backing up all of your photos first, just in case this deletes all of your photos instead of just the thumbnails
Use quickpic
Don't worry, it's due to get replaced soon
It can be ROM problem,for example in Skarbnic ROM the thumbnails are blurred a bit.

Thank you!
I've had enough with the stock gallery app. So many issues like, slow to load albums, mismatched thumbnails, ... weird issue where I click on a saved attachment and see an old photo that's long been deleted. Frustrating to say the least.
Anyway, I've looked but haven't really found a worthy replacement app. I want an app that can do everything the stock gallery can do. Find all my image files on my SD card and organize them accordingly.
Quickpic.....all day. Try it, its free and frequently updated.
+1 on the Quick Pic. You can even tell it which folders to include and/or which folders to exclude.

Thanks, just what I was looking for!
Yeah it's super fast after the first time you look at a pics because it saves the cache.

For real....way nicer to just spend a minute looking at pics. HTC should take a note.....
It also saves the zoomed version so its effortless and not dreading to look at photos.

Here's another vote for Quickpic. On AOSP roms it is a must have, but on Sense I can live with HTC's gallery.
Sent from my NookColor using Tapatalk
+1 on QuickPic. Best ever!
Anyone else notice....it seperates the pictures all over the place inside the app. Anyway i can move them around into proper spots. Example, it has all my dled pics in three different downloaded folders...i just need one.
totally agree.
cant wait to root so i can get the stock ics gallery back
agreed! Looks cluttered and ugly. Are there any recommended apps to use in place of it?
I personally use tsf gallery widget, more cool! And fun!

On that note, does anybody else notice the images don't rotate when you select the View>Change screen orientation>By Orientation sensor... I only get rotation when I have the main rotation set in the OS
Quikpic is by far the best image app.

I have tried to push several gallery apps and they all have the same look, I really hate the stock SG3 gallery app, what I would like is to have the same look as the gallery 3d version. I have tried quick pic, and its nice but I don't like the new look I really enjoyed the old 3d look. Anyone have any luck trying to get it installed, I can't get the gallery 3d apk to install. Thanks for the help
This thread delivers! Both of these recommendations are lightyears better than the included gallery. Thanks. Never really knew that I had such a problem with the gallery.
Hey XDA.
I've had an issue latlley regarding my Nexus 7, whenever I set a wallpaper, no matter if it's a living wallpaper or just and ordinary high-res image, the wallpaper gets scaled down extreamly and looks like crap. The issue started after I installed 'Gyrospace 3D' (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=opotech.starfieldLWPFree) and I have the same issue on my HTC Sensation, aswell after installing the same app, thats actually what made me relize the app came with the isuee. Heres what i tried to do to resolve it:
1. Uninstall the app
2. Change launcher
3. Wallpapyrus app, Wallpaper Setter app
4. Other Wallpaper apps
5. Restarting devices
How can I resolve this stupid issue? I issume theres some value the app changed wich makes all wallpapers be very very scaled down, and even if i choose as big as possible, it stays zoomed in when set.
Id love to if anyone can help me, a solution that aint factory reset obviously. Thanks in advance, and warnings for that stupid app.
I'll try a little bump and hope someone has an idea how to resolve this! Thanks
Use quickpic to set a wallpaper, available in the market. When it ask you which gallery to use to set the wallpaper, pick quickpic and it will use the full picture and not make you crop a section. Hope this helps.
Sent from my Nexus 7
Clear cache or reinstall the app and mess with the settings to see if it has an option to disable the cropping or whatever the hell it's doing?

Wow... Awesome solution. I've been really hating how gallery crops photo's to look like crap.
Quick pic loading app too. Will be replacing my gallery for sure!
Now.... Just wondering as I haven't been on the up and up on apps...
Since using original HTC incredible Google has had issues with high rez contact pics when callers call. Still have that issue... Is there app to fix that too?

Syncmypix works well for making higher res call pictures, but it is for Facebook pics. As long as most of your contacts are synced through Facebook then you won't have a problem.

If your just setting a static wallpaper, you have to open quickpic, select your pic then set as, then crop using quickpic. If you use the long press method from the home screen it will force you to crop the normal way.
