First and foremost...yes, I have googled and search the xda forum for an answer.
I am running myn warm twopointtwo and I cannot figure out how to make it load the 3d gallery when I click the last picture I took in the camera? The gallery links to the camera just not the other way around.
I have tried every method I have come across to make it work (including adb/root explorer installs). If I rename Gallery3D.apk to HTCAlbum.apk, I get a force close message when I try to get to the gallery from the camera. Hopefully someone can get me going! The only one that got close was I grabbed the Camera/Gallery apk's from a rom...Baked Snack I think...and it got me there but it was the wrong camera app for the evo and I get this weird issue in some of the gallery3d.apk's where there is like 6 columns between the local and picasa albums...that one did that to me. Please help!
Have you tried going into settings > applications then looking for the HTC album app, and then clicking clear defaults? If the camera passes the call as opening a picture instead of directly launching to the HTC gallery as if both programs are hardcoded together, then it should ask you what program to use to open the picture.

Yes, that was one of the suggestions I had found via Google. I did finally get it working. For anybody else who may have this problem (mine was specific to after I download warm twopointtwo due to included apps in rom), I downloaded http:[slash][slash]files.androidspin.com[slash]files[slash]enomther[slash]ROM[slash]TheOfficial_Nexus1_v2.13.2_update.zip (sorry for the crazy address but apparently new accounts can't post links) I renamed /system/app/HTCAlbum.apk to HTCAlbum.apk.original in case I had a problem, and did the same with HTCCamera.apk. I put the Camera.apk and Gallery3D.apk from the Nexus zip file (system\app\Camera.apk) into the /system/app/ folder on my evo. After a reboot the Gallery showed up but no camera in the app drawer, so I went to /system/app/Camera.apk in root explorer and clicked install. Everything works great! Also if anybody else wanted a landscape compatible car dock app, copy CarHomeGoogle.apk and CarHomeLauncher.apk to your /system/app and voila, landscape Car Home app You will still have Car Panel as well of course.
got this working with the Nexus Camera.apk but I want this to work with the HTCCamera.apk I know Im being selfish but damn it I want to use 8MP lol

For the time being I have no cable to connect my EVO to the computer so I can't really get my own wallapper, and I'm still pretty noobish at this stuff but if anyone could provide me an app that gives tons of celeb wallpapers that would be great
how about dropbox?
www.dropbox.com
you just need to install the app on your phone and computer.
that should solve your missing cable issue.
good stuff thats a great alternative thanks so much, one small issue though, everytime i download from dropbox i'm not exactly sure what to do from there, i tried setting the wallpaper using astro and everytime it would say it set the wallpaper but nothing would change, then i tried using the gallery instead and nothing new came up, i restarted my phone, checked the gallery and my image was there
will i have to just restart everytime if i want to see my image appear in the gallery?
UPDATE:
I restarted again and after about 20 seconds in my gallery folder "Searching for Photos & Videos..." my other images came up, so I guess new question is if there's a way to refresh my gallery for new images/vids?
Gallery doesn't work with ANY CM7 build!

My gallery worked fine when I had CM6 on my G2.
I have tried CM7 RC1, #7, and #32 or something like that and my gallery doesn't work for any of them.
By doesn't work I mean it fails to scan for media, and there are no photos in the gallery.
I have tried all the media scanners and rescanners on the Market, but they all stop scanning after 1 second, and does not do anything.
Also, when I browse for a picture via file manager and click on it, it takes forever to load, but when it does load, it first shows this weird wallpaper that is from the Cyanogen wallpaper pack for a brief half second then shows the picture i clicked on.
I don't know what's going on. This has been driving me INSANE. All I want to do is just to be able to set my wallpapers. I don't know how to do it without gallery.
Any help at all?
Thanks!
happend to me too, coming from cm6 to cm7... i dont know but after some time and a few reboots all my stuff showed back up in the gallery... well most of it any ways, for some reason a few pics i took with the camera are only showing in the SDcard
The gallery doesn't doesn't scan for media, the media scanner does.
Are you certain that you don't have a file named ".nomedia" (the "." at the start makes it a HIDDEN file) in the directories with the media to scan?
I went to the old gallery the 3d gallery just sucked even before I rooted and flashed cm7 nightly. You are not missing much.
From my permarooted 1209mhz G2 with CM7 nightly 6
how do i find this .nomedia? if it's hidden?
Well, I flashed latest Cyanogen mod, but then I found some problems with the phone. I'm not sure if it's really Cyanogen or something else, that's why I'm asking here.
Now, I always liked the default camera that comes with the phone, but this time, I can't find the timer on it. I have checked every single option and - nothing.
I figured that I might try some other camera apps, so far: Camera360, Camera Advance, Camera ZOOM FX and Vignette, they all work fine, but when it comes to saving pictures, nothing happens. I'm using some 3D gallery app, which comes with Cyanogen, I'm not sure what it's called, but it's fairly popular.
Any solution to this?

Appreciate your reasoning but please don't cross post (same question in multiple forums / threads).

You mean the picture is taken ok but are not being saved? Have you used a file manager or pc to check the DCIM folder on the SD Card? This is a very unique issue and not specific to the camera apps or the ROM. Let me know re above.

The Gallery 3D app is native to Android. It won't be responsible for the issues.
Sorry for late reply. Yes, the images are shown in gallery, it just reports location as unknown and when I check SD card (I have checked every folder) there are no pictures (even the newly created folders after I change save path) are not shown.
However, after you mentioned that I should check with file manager, I did so and I can see the pictures. But still, nothing on SD card, so I can't access them. I even tried sharing them on Facebook and sending g to my email then downloading, they show up in the gallery but not on SD card when I access it via PC.
What is causing this? PC issue?

Hi. Im wondering if there is a modified gallery apk floating around. I really hate picasa, with a passion. Even if it isnt the 3D gallery, I dont care. When I remove the gallery and use a third party viewer app, we cant set lock screen wallpapers. Thanks!
SOLVED
Under Accounts and Sync|Google, uncheck the Sync Picasa Web Albums box and they wont show up in the Gallery.
My fav picture viewing app that I bring with me to every rom I run is QuickPic. Its super small and fast and does everything I want it to, including setting homescreen and lockscreen pics.
Check it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5hbGVuc3cuUGljRm9sZGVyIl0.
If you're referring to the fact that your email auto checks for new mail every 30 min. you can go into your email settings and set the frequency of checking email to "Never".

Remove the stock gallery and you can not set lock screen wallpapers, even with quikpic. Which Ive used on all of my devices. Looking to remove the picasa sync option altogether which you cant do unless you remove the 3d gallery, but then you cant set lock screen wallpapers. Hence the search for a modified stock gallery.
SOLVED
I've never seen my email app use any inordinate amount of battery life as a result of it running in the background nor have I ever read a post of how someones stock email client is draining batt life. Is that whats happening to you?
And to avoid the issue of setting wallpapers with other apps, just don't remove the stock gallery app and the 3rd party apps you use should set wallpapers just fine. If you don't like the stock app, don't use it. But to remove it altogether sounds like its leading to problems.
Not sure what you mean by remove Picasa sync option altogether. Just uncheck the box and its done, no more syncing, or are you referring to removing the menu enrty/option altogether under Accounts and Sync|Google.
If so I guess I'll go now. It sounds like you want dev help from someone willing to work on code for you. Thats waaay outta my league.

I modified the stock Gallery apk so that I wouldnt have the "Sync Picasa" option under the accounts in "Accounts & Sync".
I really do not like having that option in there, so I solved my problem.
I have attached the Gallery apk to share if anyone else is as picky as I am.
I simply moved it to /system/app, overwriting or deleting the original, then fixed the permissions. I kept the original odex file. Rebooted and all is well.
Extract the zip/rar file and use the apk inside.
I hope some of you find this useful.

You got me. I'm not a dev just a tinkerer. Be certain that it's named correctly, no spaces, perhaps at the beginning of the file name etc.. When you copy it to /system/app it should ask you if you want to overwrite the existing file. That'll tell you it's named correctly. Unless there is something else that you're missing, it should work, as it worked for me. I wish I could do it for you, man. I simply copied the apk from my sd external and pasted it into /system/app, fixed the permissions and rebooted. After the reboot, I confirmed the gallery worked then I cleared cache and dalvik just for the heck of it. Really sorry it's not working for you as easily as it did for me.

Lemme get some tea and bacon and then I'll upload the originals for you. You should try copying the original apk and odex to /system/app to get your gallery back. After that try copying the modified again. Apk only.

Hey Guys,
so I got my new HTC One M8 (Vodafone GER).
But I have a problem. I updated it to 4.2.2 / Sense 6.0 but there is no gallery App anymore.
The only picture viewer that I have on the phone is "Google Photo" and it does not show Camera Pictures that I took.
Even if I'm in my camera app and took a photo and try to "click" in the lower right corner, to open gallery app, it doesn't appear.
Nothing happens.
So even searching for it in my app launcher, there is no Gallery (or even "Alben" or "Gallerie").
The only thing I found about this app is going to settings -> apps --> Gallery / "Alben" (Germany u know
I even deleted the app data and the cache. But there is no app anymore.
And yes, camera settings are set to save pictures on phone memory.
If anyone have a idea, that would be great. I tried another gallery app, but nothing happened. I could see whatsapp pictures and downloaded pictures but no camera pics.
Please help
Tanks

Stock device, and updated by OTA?
If so, backup your personal data and try a factory reset. It could be some pre-existing apps or settings is not compatible with the OTA update.
HTC Gallery is also available in Play Store as a standalone app. Try to download it from there. Not sure if 4.4.3 is needed though
