I've only gotten mine to sync in the gallery 1.1.40001 app.
there is also a picasa web app (non-google) available for free on the market that works very well.

Thanks for the reply what would the name of that app be?

Search for "picasa tool" on the market.

Found my answer. Although this doesn't bring up an option in the settings menu to sync Picasa it still shows picasa photos. Just install this zip of the stock 4.2 camera/gallery with your recovery. The only thing that doesn't work of course is the Photo sphere. Here is the Dropbox link.

Looking for gallery app from CM9

Hi, guys
I'm running LPF kernel but my gallery thumbnails just broken. Some thumbnails are showing black squares.
Anyone know how I can force gallery app to refresh thumbnails?
Also I like the gallery app from CM9 better, would I be able to download it somewhere?
Thanks.

Answering my own question, clear data of "media storage" in manage apps will force media scanner to reconstruct the thumbnails.

One of the best galleries is QuickPic, if you ask me.

I tried quickpics before but it doesn't integrate Picasa which would be a great plus.

Try this
This is what I use when using official Samsung
Again shame on Samsung for being slack and providing the gb gallery https://play.google.com/store/apps/...eryics&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

It syncs but not very well as Facebook has a crap android app. Only about 3/4 of my contacts sync, and I use Contact Picture Sync to get the rest synced. It has something to do with Facebook not using Android API's or something to that effect as why it doesn't work well. Facebook and Google aren't the best of friends and we suffer.

I think haxsync screws up the display pic of contacts.. The quality of the image is really bad...
I've been using UberSync and am happy with how it works in syncing contacts and photos. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync

Picasa auto backup

I don't use Picasa and hate it. How do I remove the constant auto backup that shows up in my Gallery?

Log into Google plus and delete the album's, then go turn sync and auto backup off in the g+ settings

But what if I want Google+ to backup my photos that I take? I just don't want the autobackup galleries to appear on my phone from Picasa.

well, as far as I know either you use it or you don't.. I don't think you can hide albums unless you use a different 3rd party gallery..
You can switch off sync for Google Photos, and then clear cache and data for Gallery. (It won't delete any photos).
This will help you to show only the offline photos in the gallery.

Gallery: hangouts album

Hi, in my gallery there is an album called hangouts with all the hangouts pictures I got and sent myself. But I cant seem to find where I can delete the album, there isnt a delete option like with other albums and also the pictures havent got an option like that.
How can I delete the album?

Try checking your Google+ album, because normally Google+ saves the pictures you send and receive.
Thats what i had done in the past and has worked for me.
Give it a try.

CyanogenMod gallery app shows grey boxes, not pictures and videos.

I have the latest CM installed and I still the problem with the gallery app. The app shows the album names and albums but I can't see the pictures and videos in any album, I just see grey square boxes. This has been a problem in the past few nightlies too, does anyone else experience the same problem?
If you have a solution, please help.
LG-D802 CM nightly 5th November.

A point to note that I can see all the pics and videos when I swipe to the right in the camera app, it's the gallery app that doesn't work.
