i really like the "tag" feature in the stock Gallery app on my droid pro.
but there seems to be a bug with it. TWICE, my tags have been deleted. the first time it happened, wasn't such a big deal, i didnt have alot of pictures so re-tagging them was easy.
but it just happened again, and i have alot of pictures now, so i don't want to spend the time to tag them if someday in the future they are going get deleted again.
anyone experience this error? anyone know of a alternate photo/video viewer app that supports tagging?
thanks

Hi all loving this new phone, a few bugs for me, nothing major like i had with my crappy n97.
1st off does anyone who has the facebook app have a problem viewing other peoples photos ( skipping from one to the next) mine just flashes the windows loading icon in the middle and does nothing else.
second the clock keeps flipping back an hour or so when i alternate between screens.
just a few niggles, i'm mostly happy
oh and if anyone has a link to a site where i can get some free apps that'd be nice.
Cheers
Phil.
The facebook app as a whole is entirely rubbish, and appears to have been written by a drunk monkey. Most people tend to prefer using touch.facebook.com (or m.facebook.com if you prefer a simpler interface). Add it to your bookmarks and add a shortcut to it on the homescreen and you'll barely notice it's not a standalone app.
touch.facebook.com does the job thankyou.
Same phot problem here, its indeed rubbish!
Also video upload doesn't work
Hi!
I've lost my Facebook contacts thumbnails, and the ability to see any pictures on their albums.
And my two latest movies that's inside the foto album is not showing in the album view.
Anyone else got this on V1.43 ROM?

Facebook albums never worked for me with 1.43 and it doesn't work for me on 1.48 either.
It did for me until yesterday for some reason, AND my Album thumbnails is disapering from time to time...
What the hell, the phone is just a month old and already huge problems with this and that....
Since i started to tweak and mod my phone all kinds of problems accurs.
I'm getting a bit sick and tired of this phone... should have waited and kept an eye on what was written on XDA first.
But you can't always trust what you read, it can be a nob that can't handle the phone or a computer so i guess that would'nt had helped either.

Try t disable Sense, restart, go to file explorer, backup HTC Album cache from Application Data\HTC, delete the Album Cache and enable Sense.
I have now found out what causes both my problems:
The FaceBook issue was due to larger file cache tweak BsB, as soon as i turned that off my Facebook thumbs is back.
The video not showing in album was due to me changing to VGA, now i'm back to 320x240 and everything i film in that resolution is showing up in Album.
Hope this helps someone else as well.
Ok so my g/f snapped like 6 pictures at an event she attended yesterday on her droid 2. She came home complaining the pictures weren't appearing in the gallery. I figured it was user error since she's new to the droid thing. I checked out the gallery and sure enough there was 6 gray squares in the place of the pictures. I rebooted and they were gone. Is this something that i should get a replacement over or what. I snapped a pic after the reboot and it was fine but i don't want her to have to wonder if the picture came out. There's also been a problem after she takes a pic it not appearing in the gallery right away. Just seems buggy any help or suggestions are appreciated.

I had a similar problem, but I think it's distinct.
I discovered that deleting the photos through the file app (without a special file manager installed) doesn't instantly delete the thumbnails in the photo gallery, so it will act as if the photos are still there, and if you take new photos before it regenerates its thumbnail cache (or whatever it actually does), the new photos will error for a while too, until it straightens out once and for all which photos really exist and which don't.
Curiously, I too came across the error taking pictures of a chick's ass. Maybe there's a link here.
There is a problem where the gallery doesn't refresh. I heard that it will refresh within a few hours on its own or you have to reboot in order to see new pics in the gallery.
SDrescan from the market is a workaround. It rescans the SD card which refreshes the gallery.
we're supposed to have the top of the line google phone, yet my gallery takes foreever to open and lags all the time. its so damn frustrating to have to wait for like 20 seconds just to view a picture i just took. it worked just fine before the 3.2.2 update. it seems like the phone is getting worse with each update instead of better. GOOGLE fix the **** that we need to work instead of other stupid things that no one can use right now
i switched to quickpic https://market.android.com/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder and never looked back. superfast and displays the picture with more detail whenyou zoom in.
I agree with quickpic. I made the mistake of removing gallery, only to find out later other programs needed it for some function other than displaying pictures.
yeah the 3d gallery is a fail imo. luckily there is quickpic. havent had any problems yet w/o gallery3d.apk

I think I had some error when trying to send a pic or video or sound recording with stock messaging. I'm guessing it uses it to convert SMS to mms.
I don't know if it can be done but it would be nice to have a setting to change file associations with. More than what can be done now.
Hi I deleted the stock android photo gallery app because it was annoying me with repeated sign in attempts to picassa.
However now i can't attach photos to a text message or review a photo i just took when in camera.
How can I reinstall the factory photo gallery for the Samsung s5?
Thanks!!

are you talking about Touchwiz camera or AOSP camera? The picasa sign in notifications are from Google+ app, remove/freeze that.
It was the stock photo gallery app with the Samsung S5 SM G900 FD.
It's just called photo gallery. I erased it and replaced it with a different photo app. Now i lost some functions like attaching photos from a text. I need to know how to reinstall it?
Any ideas?

Correct me if I'm wrong but what you're saying is that you have not flashed any custom roms, haven't rooted and yet managed to delete the stock gallery app?
If that is correct go to settings>apps>app manager find your new photo app and click reset/delete defaults
I did root the phone which is why i was able to delete the stock photo app

Ok. Download stock rom, extract camera app from there. If you have CWM/TWRP backups extract camera app from them with winrar or your favourite archiver. It should also work if you download any touchwiz based rom and extract the camera app from there.:good:
Thank you! ! You wouldn't happen to have a link to the stock rom would you?
I didn't back it up with cwm because i was so annoyed by the constant sign in attempts that i thought there's no way i would ever want it back lol! I'm pretty new to this whole thing of tampering with system files and definitely not a guy who knows much about computers so as much info as possible is very much appreciated! !
Thanks! !

That sign in prompt is Google+ afaik not camera app. Anyway here's a link to a touchwiz rom for your phone, download it and extract the camera/gallery/photo app from there. Next time remember to always make a backup in recovery, you never know when you might need it :silly: :good:
Great thanks a lot! !?
Strange thing i extracted the system rom from that link you gave me. I can't find the photo gallery app anywhere in it. Can find everything else but that, any ideas where it might be hiding?

OK I found it, it worked, everything back to normal! I used the search tool and it came right up. Thanks again for the help, it sure is interesting to play around with these gadgets! Amazing to see the sheer volume of information that goes into programming one of these things when you actually get to physically see the programming. A world few people will ever get to see.
