[Q] Different Gallery? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I had a simple question if someone has the time to answer it. I'm trying to look around for a different gallery apk than the default I'm using now.
As a bit of background information, I'm running Cognition 4.2.2. I don't like how this 3D gallery takes an eternity to load my images, and another annoyance is that it won't support GIF file playback, where previous versions had.
So I figured I'd ask the collective wisdom of XDA for some help. Any suggestions on where I can get a decent gallery app?

I use Quickpic from the market. You can also pull the previous version's apk (or from any rom that you think had a decent gallery apk) and install it into your current setup.

Awesome thank you for the suggestions. Ill try quikpic now.

Well, quickpic is a good gallery app. Still no GIF playback but its a step in the right direction. Anyone else have,some suggestions?

Why cant i take portrait pics? If i take a portrait pic and try to upload to fbook it shows rotated. Is there any way to fix that?

Its a bug with some custom roms I've noticed. Should do the same when sending pictures as mms. Only temp fix is to rotate with adobe Photoshop app.
assonance 5.2
This isn't just with custom roms, it also occurs with my stock 2.1 Rogers Captivate. It's mildly annoying but I haven't bothered looking into a way to fix it. Unless I misunderstood your use of the term 'custom rom'.
Yeah I had this issue on my stock captivate and I haven't tried it now that I'm running a custom romantic thou, all I ended up having to do is rotate it on facebook after I had uploaded it.

I thought the SGStools camera.apk fixed this. I'll test and post results.
Update: I just tested it with the above mentioned apk, and my photo viewing app correctly honored exif orientation.
Im sorry english is not my first language...did it work??

Update for Samsung Video Editor working?

There was a new version of Samsung's Video Editor but I insyaled it on JVO and every time I try to open it, it force closes.
Has anyone got this working?
Thanks

Can u post the apk here? I would like to give it a try. I can't see it in my Samsung apps
Go to the "new" category, scroll down hit "more" should be there dated 18th May.
Otherwise I can try to use titanium to get the apk?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Its not there. I have been checking almost every 2 days since the release of galaxy s 2 ( I didn't know there is a video editor until I saw in galaxy s 2) I even posted on xda several times but nobody uploaded.
I am in Canada and tuning DARKY 9.5 maybe that's the reason I can't see.
I will appreciate so much if u upload it here.
Thanks
I used to have Video Editor a few months ago, but it had gone from my Samsung Apps list, as has the photo editor released at the same time. Did anyone get the apk of the Samsung photo editor too?
Garbled meaning induced by swype when posting from XDA app on SGS I9000.
I have photo editor and video editor. Can't upload them with xda app though and i don't have any multiupload account etc.
I would think these are for sgs1 only but not much use if it FC all the time.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Hopefully they'll be OK here on Froyo. It was someone else who was commenting that the latest version of Video Editor (that came out on 18th May) are the ones to FC. Hopefully the previous versions will be fine. If you get a chance to upload them when not on your phone, that'd be awesome.
If they really aren't working on Gingerbread, presumably Samsung will update them again soon.
Not figured out why some people have them and other's don't. Must be regional, but I used to have them in there, but they vanished... along with loads of other apps a couple of months back.
What is the Photo Editor like? Is it any good?
Mike
Video esitor has never workes on gingerbread and ive tried from jvk to present.
Photo app is very limited, better to use photoshop express app.

Anyone care for a Faster 3D gallery.apk, Credit goes to bosina in vibrant forum

Ok, I was browsing the other SGS forums like I usually do and I stumbled across this. So I downloaded it and was surprised just how fast it was.
I have alot of images saved on my phone. From my theming stuff.
This gallery loaded all of them in under 15sec. My original gallery took around 2min to do the same. Anyway check it out.
I take no credit as I didnt create it, I simply found it. I will upload link to original poster if/when I can find it again... I know it came from i9000 gingerbread leak.

I just pushed it and you are not kidding it is way faster. Nice Find
Just downloaded and it makes a big difference. Opens the gallery and folders instantly. Thanks!

This may be a stupid question but does this improve the media scan at bootup?
Nope, just faster load time for the gallery. Awe...some, thx!
I don't know if this is happening to others, but when I open an image then hit the back button, instead of taking you back to the gallery it closes the gallery. It does load a bit quicker.

I know this is a noob question, but here goes: I have never attempted to adb push anything since I always just flash things through CWM. How would I go about pushing this to my phone? I downloaded the android SDK(do I need to download anything else?)
Im pretty sure this is the same one that's included in.the comm rom. I.have about 500mb of wallpapers on my sdcard and they load in about 5 seconds with both of them.

Weird, but it actually seems slower to load than before. But does anyone know if the old Gallery let you set a specific lockscreen wallpaper separate from the homescreen wallpaper(long press image-more-set as)? If so, I never noticed. If not, cool new option!
Edit: reboot helped speed a lot.
Edit 2: Set as lockscreen wallpaper doesn't seem to work... So as far as cool new option goes, not so much.
dammm ive never saw this post lols.... media scanning ive herd also? for media scanning you guys have to get a init.d fix... search for sd speed and it should show upp..
btw bringing an old post is good... others can enjoy lols
Jesus its a gallery on crack! Definitely Impressed

sorry to bring this from the dead,but would this work on the g1 or should i hold off? the apk size definitely seems a tad larger then what i see in the g1 roms.
Is it as fast as QuickPic?

Incredible crashes.

Well I've been using nightly builds of 7.1 and everytime I go into the gallery to look at pictures my phone freezes. I was wondering if anybody else was having this problem? I'm using nightly build 140.
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
Perhaps this goes in the Q/A section and the nightlies are prone to have problems. They're kinda like betas in that way. Maybe try flashing the newest one. That might help you out.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I haven't personally had problems with the stock gallery, but I would definitely recommend you try out QuickPic
It's faster, and has higher resolution previews. And doesn't crash. I've been flashing nightlies over each other since the 120's, and haven't had any problems. But I've seen lots of people who have been having freezing with the gallery.
FWIW I have 6,126 photo's on my phone, and gallery is pretty useless. Whereas QuickPic loads them right up after building all the previews.
I checked out Quickpic and that is an excellent program thanks for the quick response.

Resolved! Hating D3 gallery app...

I miss my gallery from the d1.
actually having albums and stuff rather than this... everything in one bit... it's kind of annoying in my opinion I could see some people liking it just not really well done for my tastes...
SO I was wondering what are some of your guy's top apps for photo galleries
Thanks!
Quickpic.
It's free and add free. It's also very fast and has some very nice features.
I just got QuickPic the other day. I didn't transfer old pics from my other phone because it had a gallery like the stock Droid 3 one and after about 900 pics that **** just freezed the hell out of my phone.
I totally agree with Seirÿu, the Album is good and bad at the same time. Not having the ability to browse by folders is really annoying. I use the latest version of Gallery 3d instead, Quickpic's presentation is not "stock" enough. I don't like it... they should change the Icon and rename it to "Gallery".
the first thing i did when i got this phone was find a different app, gallery 3d in the app market by rayman50 is the stock gallery found in droid 1 and droid x, works great for me and ive never looked back to that junk motoblur one
Is version 1.1.30682 the latest version available of Cooliris Gallery 3D?
That's the version I have

The Gallery 3D works great all around, definitely give it a try.

zomg how i've missed you so D1 gallery!!!! <3<3<3
thank you guys!
yup! i use quickpic as well
I just installed the previous stock gallery and hid the D3 gallery using launcher pro. don't want to remove it just yet since there is no sbf. Prolly wouldn't hurt anything, but not willing to risk it.

What's the previous stock gallery lol
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium
I like quickpic slightly better than Gallery3D in that if you have a lot of pictures it seems to index them faster.
(also recommend setting the sort to: by date descending)
Just my 2 cents.
Has Gallery 3D been renamed? I am not finding it in the market.
Here u go, newest versions.
