Gallery/ picture issues - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, for whatever reason whenever I go into my gallery it just seems as though my phone refuses to load GIF images or just refuse to load the pictures Into their full resolution. Any fix for this?

I use quickpic for gallery and photos for cloud backup. Can't speak on gif functionality, but its worth a shot imo.

I was just about to make a thread of a similar problem I'm having... My gallery sometimes completely fails to load any album thumbnails and names, but you can enter the albums (everything is still lacking thumbnails). It's very aggravating and it causes Documents to crash often.

Albums

I have more questions still!!
These are about the Album app. I have some albums reduced down especially for my phone, I notice the N1 sync's with Picasa though, so some are duplicated. Does it properly sync, as in download smaller versions of each picture from each album? I'm opening the Picasa ones and they seem slower to snap into sharpness than the ones I put on the SD card?
Also, is there a way to stop certain folders showing in the Albums? I have all sorts of odd images that the app finds in other app folders which kind of spoils the effect of the album.

[Q] Does the Gallery app support tags?

The Gallery app lets you sort and view photos by Time, Location, Album, and Tags.
Time sorts photos chronologically; Location groups them by GPS tracking.
Album seems to group them by their folder's name.
But Tags doesn't seem to have any use. Every photo is listed as "untagged." The Xoom's Gallery and Camera app don't offer any way to to add a Tag to a photo.
And when I add photos taken and tagged from within my Droid X's Gallery app, the Xoom's Gallery app doesn't seem to recognize their tags.
Has anybody gotten the Gallery's Tags option to work?
Could this be a bug in Honeycomb? An unsupported portion of Honeycomb in the Xoom? Any ideas?
Honestly the gallery sucks... is it just me or are pictures just not sharp in the stock gallery? Quick pic seems to be the only one to show sharp images

I have same problem with Transformer.
I think this is honeycomb bug, but I cant find any other gallery that handle tags properly. Even picassa uploaded photos lost their tags, but doesnt work photos from sd card tagged in win 7.
But i have some tags, i dont have idea why some photos has tags others lost them

They must be in your download directory, when you save an image while browsing it goes there. Guess you could go into the directory and move the images elsewhere that the gallery app won't include. You could also uncheck images on device from showing in the gallery but I doubt you want to do that, I mean if your sending them all to say Dropbox, Facebook, Google or whatever and displaying those then you actually could go into content to display and click off device.

Use QuickPic from Play Store, and you can choose which folders to show i your gallery.
Just a suggestion if you want to use 3rd party apps to solve your problem.
How many years and this is still a problem???????
I still have not found the answer.
Do not want to install a 3rd party app.
.nomedia does not work.
embedding will take forever with the amount of albums one has.
tried renaming music folder to media but art still showed up in gallery.
Is there a quick and/or simple way of getting this done?

Photos disappearing in gallery when moving them.

Hi, whenever I try to sort out pictures in the Samsung gallery app they seem to disappear. It assists to happen every time I do it. All I want is to sort out albums. I'm not rooted. Picture attached shows what happens to the file when I move it. All files I'm moving are from internal storage

Gallery in camera app shows all the photos instead of just the camera roll - solution

Since moving to S8+ from other android phones, this issues was irritating me. While in camera app, if I go to gallery, I want to see only photos taken by camera and not all the media from whatsapp, facebook etc. The suggested solution of adding .nomedia in those folders did not appeal since that would impact other applications browsing those folders too. So this is what i have done and it works well enough for me.
Samsung gallery app has setting to ignore albums, so I went to that setting and checked all the albums except camera. This was manual and I had to check a lot of albums. After that was done, gallery shows only camera roll either in camera app or outside camera app.
I installed another gallery app (quickpic from xda - https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/mod-gallery-quickpic-based-4-7-4-t3790425) to browse different albums including my photos.
That seems like a good solution for non rooted phones until samsung improves their gallery app
