Hey,
Here's the file to install Gallery 3D to the Desire.
You have 2 ways of installing:
1) Install Android USB Driver (search for it) run the following commands:
adb install <filename and path>
2) Copy to SD Card, open in a file manager (make sure "install from unknown sources" is checked in menu) (untested)
New version:
Gallery works great, launches camera, and plays videos!

No it includes Sense's gallery "Photos".
It just gives you 2.1 style gallery that's on the nexus one which looks better than the default for HTC, just install using astro file manager and off you go just place a short cut on one of the screens.
If anyone can figure out how to get launcher 2 style all programs and keep sense ui that be top
Thanks, brummiesteven
Sorry, what is Gallery3D and why do I want it?
It works but not well, for example pressing the camera icon, will crash the application and prompt a force close, there also seems to be some issue with the screen going black for a few seconds.

Eclipse is an IDE, you can develop/run/deploy jar files from it to the phone (also apk I assume). NetBeans works too with JAR files, not sure with APK though.
BTW, you cannot transfer the APK file directly to your phone and install it from there?
Does the 3D gallery replace the Sense one? Or is it just an alternate app?

I *think* he's trying to test his own code via the phone which I'm not sure is possible or not, pretty sure you have to use the emulator.

Are you saying that you can't test your own apps on the Desire through the standard developer tools? That's more than strange. brummiestevens said he could install apps via adb, so testing your own apps should work.
I would like to put bsb tweaks on my hd2. However, I do not know where to install it to? Many thanks
put the cab file anywhere on your phone and run it.
Hi put the cab file on you sd card .then install using file explorer

You'll probably do more CABS, so I suggest creating a CAB folder on the root of your SD card... Easier to keep track, then.

It's a winner, I keep a copy of my cabs on my laptop and another on my SD card for easy of use when flashing from ROM to ROM.

The icon launches the camcorder as it should but its showing the camera icon not the camcorder icon. Can anyone attach the camcorder.lnk for me please?
ive never seen a camcorder icon in any rom ive used, but here's 2 you can try from an icon pack
you can change them with JWMD icon changer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567080
Please could someone attach the Camcorder.lnk from their Windows/Start Menu/Programs directory so that I can restore mine with the correct icon.

i see that you've edited your (slightly questionable) initial reply, hey im not a petty man so may i suggest 2 things...
JWMD isnt difficult to learn as you prev' said in your pre-edit post, just install - select icon you want to change - then select the icon you want to use instead - Job Done!
or if you are using a custom rom, try posting on that forum as other people should have this icon/ shortcut (.lnk), however if its stock, try posting your rom version, carrier, etc maybe someone else with the same rom will have what you are looking for.
All the best!
I think you're in luck, ive just been testing a new rom (cleanex core 1.20) & for the 1st time it has the shortcut you are after, ive zipped 3 files:
Camcorder.lnk for Windows\Start Menu\Programs\HTC (in this rom)
HTC_CamCorder.lnk & HTC_camcorder.png go directly in your windows folder (then softreset)
Hope it works for u
Right... its Beer time!
Don't you have 2 files...one to launch the camera and another to launch the camcorder?
Thanks for your help guys.
Hi guys!
I've finally fixed this annoying problem on my Galaxy SII I9100 simply replacing the gallery2.apk file in \system\app with the gallery2.apk file mounted in the latest Revolt JB ROM 3.2 or latest JellyBam Rom (both have a camera option for saving to external sd card).
I've attached to this message the file you have to copy in \system\app.
Obviously, you need root permissions and a file explorer (I'm using use File Explorer)
I suggest you to make a backup copy of the original gallery2.apk file before overwriting it with this version.
Enjoy your new 4.2.1 Cyanogenmod Camera!!! :highfive::good:
Bye!

I don't know how to thank you! I was going nuts because of this goddamns issue. I have a 32GB SD card, and the internal is stuffed with all the apps. This weekend I got screwed with a time lapse of two hours that got busted when I stopped recording due to not enough space (nice that it only tells you after you finish). Anyway, I'm downloading it, and will install in a minute. Thanks a million!
EDIT: This does work in CM10.1 as well. If you unzipped the file in a non-ext based filesystem (fat32, ntfs), you may want to check the file permissions once copied into /system/app. After a reboot both the camera and the gallery went missing. With root explorer I checked the permissions of the file. Yup. The owner was lacking read and write permissions. After fixing this (and a reboot), everything works fine!
Again, thank you so much, ivanceci!
Hi after some days usign the phone as normal, I noticed a slow framerate while recording 720p/1080p videos with this camera...Did you notice this as well?
Hi ivanceci, could you provide information on how did you modify the official gallery2.apk in order to add the external storage option? I understand it's not a very complex option, and it could give me a huge improvement if I could just download the source from CM from the latest versions and do it myself!
As of now, I found out this camera works great for most of the stuff (and can do timelapses finally without any trouble!), BUT it has a rather slow framerate when handling 720p video. It works fine with 480p, but 720p works around 15~20fps. So I would like to take the modification and implement it in a more recent camera apk. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for that! I updated the gallery2.apk with a recent nightly, and yeah, a few more options (like, saving to USB) are available. Sadly, the video performance still doesn't match what would call "acceptable". I think it may be a bit faster than before, but still under 25-30fps.
Anyway, I'm uploading here the apk, as I think it performs a bit better than the older version OP posted.

Hi,
I try extracting file and its giving me error message.

know how you can transform an APK in the zip to install CMW
Nice, hope this gets merged to CM soon.
Wondering 'bout the slower framerate when shooting vids, maybe it is because your video now gets saved in your external sd instead of your internal flash memory (which is faster than external sd..). DSLR cameras which shoot hi-res vids clearly state to try to use the fastest memory cards possible (class 6 or above)
My 2 cents

Yeah, but the video data rate isn't so high for phones, AFAIK. Plus, that's something I could do with no problem on the stock ROM, it isn't a feature I just found out

Hm...Nope, I never made a .cwm install zip. But seriously, using the root explorer you should be able to do it easily.
Load Root Explorer, go to the new downloaded apk, copy it.
Go to /system/app
Mount as R/W
Rename original gallery2.apk -> gallery2.apk.old
Paste the file.
Long press on the file, properties.
Make sure the owner has ticked the permissions for read and for write.
Mount as R/O.
You're done. Reboot.

I installed the .apk file but I don't seem to find any option to change the saving location of the camera app. I've turned both the camera app and the galery app upside down but I didn't find anything.
Also, both apps look 100 % the same as the normal Cyanogenmod camera and galery. Is this normal?

Hi clercger,
you should have the options available in the camera menu:
I checked according to your screenshots but the option at the top of the settings was just not there in my camera app. I then decided to redo the whole procedure you posted on the first page, using the .apk that you uploaded (first time I used OP's). I also ticked all the permission boxes in the .apk's properties using File Explorer and now it works.
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
it works on other device with cm10 as galaxy wonder?
Beautiful!!!
This method worked like a charm. I prefer the UI of this modified gallery/camera app. It has a considerably cleaner look to it
Nice find :thumbup: but, (ain't there always a but) when shooting video it looks warped. It plays back alright, just looks odd when filming.

I have a Nexus 4 running CyanogenMod 10.1. I want to hide the WhatsApp images folder. I have already tried placing a "." at the beginning of the file name and also adding a .nomedia file in to the WhatsApp images folder. Both methods hide the folder only until you receive or send an image on WhatsApp whereby the folder appears again.
Any help would be appreciated.
I don't entirely know if this would work because I haven't used whatsapp, so I don't know what their folder setup is like. You could try to put a .nomedia file in the folder above the images folders.
Eg. If the image folder is \SD-Card\Whatsapp\Images
put the .nomedia file in \SD-Card\Whatsapp\.nomedia
Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately this gives the same result as described in my original post. It hides the folder temporarily until an image is sent or received on WhatsApp, whereby the folder appears again.
Any other sugesstions would be welcome.

Download Quickpic from Play Store and hide the folder.
P.S Once you hide the folder from Quickpic, it doesn't show up on the default Gallery app as well.
Ooh, I didn't know that. And Quickpic is an awesome image viewer/gallery anyways, so I already had it installed. Thanks for the tip!

I've tried all the methods you mention. I hided the folder in quickpic, but it doesn't work. I put a new file named .nomedia both in the whatsapp folder or in the whatsapp images folder, but it doesn't work (it hides the folder just untill you dont post or download an other images from whatsapp). I tried renaming the whatsapp images folder with the .bak but still doesn't work.

You always make a folder named ".Pictures" or something with a ".nomedia" file in it somewhere on your phone and manually move whichever pictures you want to hide there.
EDIT: I searched "hide app" in the Play store and there's a few apps that claim they can hide pictures.

QuickPic is the way to go. The stock Gallery app should have been like it. All you have to do is to long press that folder, hit the menu button and choose exclude. Of course it only takes effect within QuickPic itself. Stock Gallery app sucks anyway.

Did you at least try it? I haven't, but I assume that the folder would be hidden after all the pictures are hidden. :S
The folder will be hidden until you will send or receive an other picture from whatsapp.
