I've previously installed various roms, including blackhole. All replacement roms have an issue that effects the phone's gallery when displaying animated gifs. The stock gallery apk that comes with the samsung galaxy s (fascinate) displays animated gives in their animated form. All other replacement roms do not, the animated gifs simply display as a regular picture. My questions are, why is this happening? Is the stock apk found on the fascinate being replaced with something that lacks this feature, or is it from something else? Is there a way to get the stock gallery.apk back so that animated gifs will work?
awww my jj.am collection is useless :'(

Quick noob question:
I was under the impression that Froyo added support for animated GIFs in the browser, but I've been running DK28, and haven't had any luck getting animated GIFs to work.
- Is there some Settings option I'm missing that I need to turn on?
- Is this a result of this being a leaked rom and the final one will turn it on?
- Is this something that needs to be modded in, per ancient posts like this?

So I just got my Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and am loving it except for the fact that it wont connect to my Macbook pro. I'm wondering if anyone has figured out how to change the wallpaper on the lockscreen besides the ones that samsung has provided. I have three options wallpapers, gallery and live wallpapers and only the images (which are provided by samsung) in wallpapers can be applied to the lockscreen. It also makes you crop the picture for the lockscreen before applying and it makes the picture look grainy. Anyone figured a work around for this?
Start in the Gallery app and open the image you want to use. Then go through the "Set As" menu and you will eventually be given the option to choose either Desktop or Lockscreen wallpaper.
And unfortunately I dont think there is a way around the blurry cropping that happens when you set the lockscreen. At least I havent found anything yet.
I used a pretty large picture source and don't see any obvious grain on the lockscreen. Also, while I was forced to make a cropping selection, the actual area displayed on the lockscreen appears to be larger than my crop selection. I haven't played around with this too much because I like how it turned out and I don't want to mess it up.
It seems that I cannot set the AOSP wallpapers on my galaxy tab. I like them very much, and the samsung ones are complete garbage. I am particularly miffed I cannot set them to the lock screen.
I tried a search and have come up empty, can someone point me in the right direction?
EDIT: I didn't look hard enough, go through Gallery
I ended up searching for the stock honeycomb wallpapers on google to download and copied them onto the tablet. To use them as lockscreen wallpaper, I went into to gallery app and set as>lockscreen
Also love them.
I notice under "wallpaper", it shows them as being in the gallery, but the only one that comes up when I click on it is the one I put there. However, I distinctly see the blades of grass as if it is in the folder.
Doesn't work in QuickPic either?? Why is the most "advanced" phone on the market today incapable of doing something so simple? W.T.F.?! Anyone got any tips for being able to download animated gifs, have them show up animated in the gallery, and send them as an sms message to a friend? iPhone does this no problem...is this really impossible on Note 4?? Tell me I'm stupid and am doing it wrong...please.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Mine does display. And extremely fluid too compared to Galaxy S4
GIFs work on my phone as well
Why would gifs not be displaying on my T-mobile Note 4...all animated gifs in stock gallery and quickpic show up as grey box with questions mark? Frustrating...any suggestions??
No problem on my note 4, are you sure that the particular image isn't damaged?
Hello all
is it safe to use some lockscreen replacement app in my stock OP6T??
the stock lockscren makes the wallpapers incredibly ugly...
it makes the wallpapers always greenish or blueish or yellowish and etc etc etc...
in my research on how to fix that, I noticed that it is not possible... so I thought in trying a third app as lockscreen.
can someone tell me if it is possible and maybe suggest one??
You won't be able to use the fingerprint on any other lockscreen.
