I love the Nexus one roms, but absolutely hate their gallery app. it's too slow and constantly trying to get thumbnails.
is there a way to get the gallery app from other builds (the normal app, where it shows one line of pics, and at the bottom you can choose to share/delete etc) without the silly 3d effects and replace it?

Has anyone noticed that when viewing your pictures that you took with the moto x camera on your phone you can see the pixels filling in? I don't see this when viewing other pictures I have in my gallery taken with other devices.
Just noticed it only does it when using the stock "gallery" app. When I use the "pictures" app is does not happen.
I have noticed this on other phones running the stock Android gallery app as well. Pictures above a certain size load lazily.
On another note, QuickPic is the bomb. It will do this as well though.

Yes it does, I just tried it. !!
Do you mean that the photo is slightly blurry and then becomes sharper after a second or two? This is just to make the gallery faster. It loads the thumbnail as you swipe through the gallery quickly for speed, and only loads the full image (much clearer and sharper) after you've stopped on a photo for a second or two. If it loaded every photo in full size it would be very slow and you wouldn't be able to swipe as
It is perfectly normal.
I set my default application to view pictures as the google photos app. Is there a way to change this to gallery?

Settings / apps / google photo's app... there should be a "Launch by Defaults" at the bottom you can Clear defaults. Clear it, then you can select the app you want next time you open a picture.
Thank you!
Hello, I found the stock gallery very unpleasant
for exemple when you want to delete a picture, it take you 2-3 taps
AOSP gallery is really faster, you delete pictures in a blink, and if you miss you can still go back clicking "cancel" button
Don't want to change camera, beacause the stock one is clearly the one with the best results (sharpness, noise, focus...)
So, any way to change the app launcher by touching the little vignette on the corner of the camera app ?
Not anymore. Used to be possible on the first firmwares the phone came with, but they deleted that functionality. It's not possible on the S5, either, so likely a KitKat thing.
You also can't select it in Whatsapp, Facebook and other such apps. Wish we could.... Stock gallery is a nightmare if you have more than 20 pictures. I have about 6000, when I want to select a picture to send in Whatsapp I have exactly 1.2 seconds to select it before the gallery crashes and takes Whatsapp/Facebook with it.
I do have to object to the statement about the camera. FV5, Procapture and Zoom FX take much higher quality pictures.

Will try these apps, thanks, but I'm suspicious, tried a bunch of camera app, the stock sammy app take fastest shoot, more sharp, autofocus faster...
Google camera take worse pictures than stock
That's a shame, gallery of the Google camera is freaking cool
Hello, i'm looking for a way to view without timing/save snaps , i use an app that does that perfectly well but i want to do that inside the snapchat app because it got more new features like Snap DMs (the chats) and other minor features that any other snapsave app i use doesnt
Also i'm looking for a way to upload videos and photos from my gallery...
I can do all that, but on separated apps
I use SaveMySnap for uploading photos from gallery
I use normal Snapchat app for features the other apps dont have
I use Snapsave for Snapchat most of the time because it just what i need everyday (viewing without timer and saving)...
Does an app or Xposed module that can do all of that exists? it's time consuming and terrible using 3 apps for similar tasks....
Coming from a Samsung s5 I'm used to being able from the photo gallery to crop and draw on photos. Now with the standard photos app I don't see these functions. Am I missing something, or do I now need another app? Recommendations?

I don't draw on my pics, but have seen a few that allow this....Just search for gallery and read the features. I've tried about 25 different ones to find one I like and I always come back to QuickPic . Has several great editing tools......But I always have a 2nd (besides Google Photo's) with more editing options. This 2nd one changes all the time and I keep hoping I'll find an "all-in-one" gallery that will let me only keep one. Many people will recommend the CM gallery, I really like it but it has no option to "hide" a folder. So if you have 300 albums, each in their own folder, you can' t automatically hide them - You have to add some sort of "no media" tag to each folder (someone correct me if I'm wrong).
Another one I like, is a new one that I thing has potential.... It's called: A+ Gallery Photos & Videos (by AtomicADD Team)
Another couple I liked were:
FOTO Gallery (by LADYBUG)
Gallery (by Flayvr Media, Ltd.)
Piktures was another one I used for a while, you might check it out too.
You can always delete them if you don't like them.
Thanks, I was hoping for a few suggestions rather than the try a whole bunch to see approach. I checked the play store and hoped to whittle it down to a few contenders.

The Motorola gallery let's you draw and crop on photos, there's another thread with the apk in themes and app.
Trying the Motorola gallery, looks like what I want. Thanks Jamespat!

Hi, I've noticed that the Gallery app is slightly different from my S6 in that it includes all pictures on my phone when i click on the Gallery button in Camera app.
Is there anyway to exclude all pictures except for the ones that the camera takes, like in my S6?
It a bit annoying that there is always a meme (from whatsapp group chats) in the bottom corner of the Camera
Same concern here, did you find any solution?
This has been an issue since Note 7 and I have not found any solution yet, except going directly to gallery/albums/camera instead.

I have used "no media" on my N7 to stop advertising pics showing up in gallery back when I had it (yep, advertising pics were showing up in gallery too), but that's really not a solution, since in my case I have tons of media files on my phone and I want them to show as media files, just not inside gallery open from camera. I have not seen advertising pics showing up in S8 gallery, but pictures that I downloaded from internet do show up.
I have the same issue! But with camera app.
I have the same problem on my S8. I don't want them to hide from gallery but at the same time they shouldn't be included in the camera.
I have the same problem, and I haven't found the fix yet. The .nomedia fixes the problem, but it isn't good as a permanent solution.
*Necromancer ⚠*
My Solution is to use Quick Pic! Been using it for years! (even b4 CM purchase. No they didn't molest it) It allows Hiding with or without password.
I give up on Gallery!
Obviously, .nomedia is not a real solution, to this day from Note4 to Note8. It would be nice, if like Open Camera allow an app to be used when clicking "Gallery" icon. I still use OC frequently, but some features are not exposed to 3rd party apps!
I can say it's embarrassing to show pictures &andaccidently swipe. Showing some of my Tumblr saves..
Use ES File Explorer to find the Cache holders and set them to hidden.
.nomedia only works until you clear the app cache and then it's deleted along with it.
If the gallery can't see the folder, it can't display it's contents.
Where are these cache holders?
