one day I went into the gallery app to review a picture and there were hundreds of folders with random pictures in the gallery and the app is incredibly slow to load pics. I downloaded quick pic and I could hide these albums but I would like to work this out if it's possible, I would like to post a picture to show you but gallery is completely unresponsive. some of the album names are active user, assets,. com. samsung
You could try to plug it into your computer and delete the pictures through the directories.

Find the folders involved, and put a file named ".nomedia" in them. Then download "Rescan Media" (or other app) from the play store, or clear data for the gallery and let it rescan.
Should clean it up.

They seem to be connected to one of your accounts. I'm not sure why they did this but lets say if you sign in to facebook, or dropbox, all your pictures from those accounts will show up in your gallery. Its stupid and it does make the phone lag when opening the gallery app

Drop box shows in gallery? How did you get this to happen, it's not even an option that I can see.

I don't know how it happened but I just deleted 1406 folders and gallery was still slow so I also went into app management and cleared cache and 69 gb of data which is weird because I only have a 16 internal 32gb mem card, but that seems to have done the trick

Yup. Dropbox, Facebook, instagram , Picasa...and a bunch of other apps that host pictures. They all show up in my gallery, I've never done this on purpose and it does seem to make gallery load a little slower

A sneak peek at the next version of Android Market and Music app
Posted Apr 5th 2011 6:00AM by Sebastian Anthony
In what is probably a bit of a big-G whoopsie, the folks at Tech From 10 woke up to find a new, test version of Android Market installed on their Galaxy S.
Visually, the new version is almost identical. The carousel of featured apps has been updated slightly, and apps now have a 'Content rating,' but that's it (image after the break). The interesting bit, however, is the inclusion of alpha and beta apps -- most notably, there's a new version of the Music app, which looks like a scaled-down version of the Android 3.0 Honeycomb Music app (see right).
Also available from the test Android Market is 'Google Gallery 3D New 10.2', 'Google - Camera v12' and 'Google Desk Clock 10' -- but, curiously, all of the apps refused to launch on Tech From 10's Galaxy S (Vibrant) smartphone. Are they Honeycomb apps? Or, more likely, are they destined for the next Android smartphone OS, Ice Cream?
If you want to try out the new Honeycombish Music app, Tech From 10 has made the APK available for download. You can also download the three Google apps, if you want to have a poke around.
Link here: http://i.downloadsquad.switched.com...next-version-of-android-market-and-music-app/
The link seems to be down, but I posted the music app.
Maybe the devs can tweak and add these in...

It is setup for google music cloud, so that you can stream. the cloud is not setup as of yet.
Are you able to upload music to the Google cloud and stream it? If so, can you tell if it uses up your gmail/picasa available space? I paid for extra storage for picasa and I assume the music service would share from the same space.
Thanks.

If it's a Google cloud music service, it would need access to your account for syncing, etc.
If its for the gallery it has to do with permissions dealing with your Picasa albums.

I have only installed the music app. Since then I have had some weird things happen on my phone. The YouTube login started to fail several times even though I didn't open YouTube. The phone locked up and needed a battery pull. 2 pictures I took never saved. Up until now i haven't had a single issue with this phone and that is the only thing I have installed recently. Might just be a strange coincidence...

It's probably a wakelock. Use BetterBatteryStats to check what cause it.
Maps is continuously using 10% battery power on my s4 and I haven't even started maps yet, Google now probably uses it but don't know how to turn it off
edit: as I'm looking at the screen shot that I just uploaded I notice that the information about the battery life is incorrect i usualy last a day on a charge like this.

I think it might be the google play. Since the new version 4.0.25 I've seen drain like this when I left the app open in the memory. Maybe this is the problem.
Click the blue google icon
open it
click settings
and you can switch Google Now off from within there
Interestingly enough, I've heard a lot of iPhone users complaining about battery drainage with the Google Now as well!
There are a few gremlins at the moment, I've had a 32 minute audio wake lock despite the phone being silent on my desk and my cpu got stuck at 1350mhz for over an hour.
Both problems solved by clearing the apps via the task manager so maybe it's an app doing similar.

Quite simply maps is running or you have Google now tracking you. Probably have locating settings to use your phone and Wi-Fi to determine where you are. Turn them off
Sent from the mind of Galactus
I had google services kill my battery. It only happened once but on that day it took 63% of my battery
if maps keeps draining you battery try this:
maps->settings->locations settings-> and take off "report from this device"
i had this problem on GS3
Got the problem now too, all sync and location based stuff are off and it still happens. Android really sucks when these things happen.. will report back If I solve it.
I had the same problem but now i don't get the battery drain anymore. I deactivated google now by holding the "settings" button(the left softkey). There you can deactivate google now
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
I updated Google Services to the latest update through the play store and the drain has stopped.
Google Now/Maps causes huge wakelocks, as every so often it checks where you are to give you location based information, or record your location history.
If you don't need this information, turn all the options off in Map settings like someone above suggeste.

Hi
I have an issue not specific with the 6p, I see the same issue with my Nexus5
I use Google Drive on Android to upload photos and videos and other files.
After many months of usage, the Google Drive app size is taking a few gigs and I don't understand why??
I don't use offline files on Drive, and If I clear the cache in the app setting, it doesn't help.
So the only solution I got is to clear all the app data after a few months . Do you understand why?
Is it that Drive is keeping a local backup in the app of every files I upload from the phone?
Thanks

Try that for one of your files (a bigger file probably, >50 MB) in the Drive, and check if the storage spaces consumes more data. It will confirm the situation.

Now when you look into Google Drive, and open the menu of a file. You will see two different options there, Download or Make available offline.
The difference between the two is - 'Download' option allows you save the file to your storage, and you can browse/open/modify it from other third-party apps too, besides just Google Drive itself. On the contrary - 'Make available offline' option, does the same thing, but it saves the file under the app itself, and it could only be accessed within Google Drive.
So, for the latter the file is saved under the Google Drive app, which in turn shows the increase in storage space. If you use the Download option, the app storage wouldn't be affected at all.

The strange thing is there are no stock LG Gallery app no stock music app and no lg messenger app. I'm not sure what else is missing. Google messenger was preloading as was photos and Google music of course. From the I can tell this is only on the sprint version that's missing the stock LG apps. I did a restore from a G5 and thought maybe something went wrong. However after a factory reset, still no stock LG apps. Very strange.

I found this strange as well. I have had my V20 since Friday, and I have been struggling to find apps that would meet the mark. Finally, the text messaging app that works reasonably well is Textra. For the Music player, I use PowerAmp. That app fills the void well. I was also surprised that there was no native picture app, but the Google app it comes preloaded with was adequate. The only two things I am not completely happy with is the keyboard and the way the camera looks when you use it.

I'm thinking they aren't selling it until Friday for a reason. Maybe they are waiting for a final software update on or before Friday? I'm not sure but I do know this seems to be isolated to sprint versions. I'm almost certain the V20 retains the stock LG apps from recent models.

I have Sprint as well. I think we are the only ones who have gotten the phone before the release date. I had the Note 7 (which I loved) and wanted something that could fill the void. I have worked a lot of things out, but the items I mentioned before are what is still getting me. You should look at this link http://phandroid.com/2016/09/21/lg-v20-first-19-things-you-should-do/ that will allow you to really make your phone better right away. Tell my what you think.

I'm thinking it is poorly bureaucratic
Bizarre. I'm on Verizon and I have all those stock apps (although I don't use them).

Exactly that's why I think this is more than a decision to exclude them. Something strange is going on hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

I found this strange as well. I have had my V20 since Friday, and I have been struggling to find apps that would meet the mark. Finally, the text messaging app that works reasonably well is Textra. For the Music player, I use PowerAmp. That app fills the void well. I was also surprised that there was no native picture app, but the Google app it comes preloaded with was adequate. The only two things I am not completely happy with is the keyboard and the way the camera looks when you use it.

How about bloatware?? is it uninstallable??

No nascar installed but most of the crap you're able to disable or uninstall.

Would it be possible to get the gallery app from another model and install it on the sprint version?

I did this. Search for LGGallery in xda and you will find a post where the apk's were ported from the G5 to older devices. It may not be the newest version of Gallery, but it works in my phone until LG decides to give us the apps.

Try the older version in that same post and if it installs see then if you can install the one that gave you errors.
