Is it possible...

... to change the folder that the camera photos are saved in ? because im using touch flo 3d HD and I want to use the photo album tab, but it only shows "my picture folder", so is there anyway to make the photos go to that folder ?
don't need to change the folder name.
GO camera on Touch Flow, press Albums This should show All, Camera Shots, My Device, Storage Card. press Storage card. This should now show you the directory of the card. Click on the folder you want and should then show in Albums. Now press Menu and press Set Album as Favorites.
Done
Hope this helps

Facebook Pictures - Photos

Hi, I'm trying to save facebook pictures to my phone but cant seem to find how to do it?
I've tried it through the app, opera and explorer. None of them seem to give an option and if you try and highlight the picture it selects it and moves to the next one in the album? Any ideas folks?
Thanks in advance
tab and hold give me a contex menu with "save image as"
on all pictures in opera mobile
Thanks Rudegar. I completely forgot about that menu set! Taking a bit of getting used to the phone

Do either of you use microsoft my phone? If so it may have backed up your pictures then copied them back after rom upgrade creating 2 copies of them all? Only thing that springs to mind.
i think may be album cache is the reason after folder content changing. try reboot your device.
update:
touch albums. touch albums again. you will see 2 first options: "all" and "camera shots".
if you choose "camera shots", you will see duplicated photos.
if you choose "all", you will NOT see duplicated photos.
so, choose all for your comfort.
i do this i select all but when i exit album and i entering album again then i see all photos and videos twice again :S
sorry for my english
hi yeaks,
try this way:
after you select "all", touch "menu" then touch "set album as favorite". you will see an infor box appeared saying that "... has been set as your favorite album. you can go to the photos & videos tab on home to view the album". you have done.
you can choose another folder to be your favorite also, except "camera shots". seem duplicate issue appear only with this option.
so, choose everything you want BUT NOT "camera shots".
if this works for you, please confirm.
good luck.
thanx for your reply
i chose set album favorite, but, when i exit albums
and i entering albums again the problem is still going on...

See thread here, same problem there, no solution though. Someone there posted that this is happens when you change the language in manila, dunno if its true or not.
thanx bro im waiting for a fix
Hi ALL
Try to navigate to My Device\Application Data\HTC\HTC Album and delete cache files.than if you have Total commander or Resco Explorer in the folder which is showing you dual files delete Album Cache file.but it is hiden file that's why you need advanced browser to be able to see them.
as far as i can remember this has solved this kind of problem for me some time ago.
and maybe Soft Reset...
the solution is there

hmmm. it looks strange.
let's try again.
when you choose album folders the menu will display 3 parts like that:
part 1:
all (xxx)
camera shots (xxx)
part 2:
my device
graphics and sounds (xxx)
my wallpapers (xxx)
part 3:
storage card
100media (xxx) (this is folder storing photos shoted by your camera)
for example i choose 100media then i will see photos thumbnails. then i touch menu then "set album as favorite" then ok. then back to home today screen. now when i return to photos & videos tab touch albums i will see "100media" in the left top conner of the title bar. DO YOU SEE THE SAME ?
i have tried all folders. for me just only folder "camera shots" get wrong. even in the folder list the number of photos on this folder exaclty the same number of photos on "all" folder.
someone said about manila language. this may be an issue.
just my 2 cents.
I've the same problem
Is it possible to change the default folder "camera shots" every time that i'm opening the album?
"hi yeaks,

can some directory be fobidden to show in the picture galery

Hi,
since i updated my DHD with the OTA update, i can see ALL pictures that are in the phone's memory in the picture galery app..
is there a way to told the picture galery to ignore some folders..
MOD edit: Moved to General
Cheers,
M_T_M
Yes. Add empty file called
.nomedia
In the folder
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
or when you load up gallery, click menu and show/hide folders then untick what folders you dont want to show
the main idea is to prevent friends/child or whatever to see pics that are not for them (like a sexy girlfriend for example)
the hide menu in galery is too easy ...
there is no password or something like that, so if you share your phone for 1 min to someone, he can found the hidden albums in 10 secs ....
I'll try the nomedia hopping that it will do the work...
One last question: how to remove the thumbnails without deleting the content ?
the .nomedia trick worked ...
but i needed to put this file on the parent directory, not the directory containing the pictures

hmm when i start gallery and klick on menu nothing happens, no menu is comming up. i wanna exclude some folders. how can i change that, is there any other way?
is the menu not coming up because its still loading/refreshing?
Update: wow its tricky to get this menu opened up...
i tried to put the .nomedia file in the parent folder, but it doesnt work....
i also cleared the cache of gallery, and after startup the same again.
i would like to uncheck some "system - pictures" wich i dont need in gallery
Question:
is there a programme, which actually shows the folder structure for pictures.
like my pictures -> test -> test1
-> test2
because gallery shows only
my pictures
test
test1
test2
I installed and application called hide it pro today (free) from market, it lets you hide anything with a password. Installs as 'audio manager' and there is a hidden button in that to get to the login screen. Pretty nice!

When I load gallery, if I hit menu nothing happen.
Then I select 'All photos' then hit menu and only 3 buttons appears: 'slide show', 'Define as', 'Select reader'.
So nothing about 'show/hide folders'. Where do you find that ??
Thanks
Other way to hide folder from gallery is to name it ".anyfoldername"
The dot in the beginning is the key. My windows computer would not let me create such folder, so I made one in my phone and then moved files to it from a computer.
By the way, in Gallery all photos are displayed 'flat' whatever the folder hierachy is.
In other word, I cannot browse photos by folder they belong to.
It was possible in my previous Magic with many different ROMs (stock 1.6, Cyanogen,...).
This is quite anoying because I have +400 photos stored in +10 folders.
Scroll down and there you should be able to see the folders...

I had to delete application data through Application settings for it to rescan.
It found my folders

Yeah, this sucks, on winmo htc sense this was possible... unfortunately HTC Sense for android in some aspects has taken a step back...

yeah pretty useless too
the files are accessible uncrypted in a .myVault folder ^^
i first througth the password was crypting the files (because it took some time)
but no the files are freely visible
ok at least there are not in the galery

Can't find photos. DCIM showing a few pictures and a bunch of empty folders.

I'm on a stock Nexus 6P and I'm trying to pull all my pictures and videos off it to back-up since I'm switching to a new phone.
I've tried setting the phone to MTP and PTP, but the DCIM folder only shows me like 78 photos and videos, and then 28 empty folders whose names are similar to that of pictures. I've attached a picture to show you what I mean.
Any ideas?
So after researching this a bit more, it seems its a known bug that is solved but with an unknown date of when it will be patched.
That said, I found a solution.
1. Install QuickPic app.
2. Take a Screenshot to ensure a Screenshot folder has been created by the system.
3. Open QuickPic, navigate to the Camera folder, press and hold one image to select it then from the option in the top corner use Select All.
4. Use the options again to Move.
5. Move them all to the Screenshot folder.
6. Go to the Screenshot folder, select all, and move them back to the Camera folder.
When you connect your phone to your computer, they should now all be visible in the Camera folder. If not, move them all back to the Screenshot folder and get them from Pictures/Screenshots rather than DCIM.
I have the exact same issue.
Is there no other way around this?
What /are/ those empty folders that have similar picture names?
Like, I have pictures 001, 002, 004, 005..
But I'll have a folder 003...??
