I have the CM 6.1 RC4 Rom flashed and I cannot stand the 3D gallery. It's horrendous and some apps that I install, have their pictures (yahoo fantasy app comes with LOTS of subway pictures). It's a headache and I just wish I had the HTC stock gallery which lets you "hide" folders in the media.
Is there another gallery app that I can use or can the HTC gallery be used without its ROM?
I know people might suggest doing the .media file/folder naming, but doesn't that effect the app that requires some of these images that im hiding from the gallery?

The gallery app in sense is faster then the 3g gallery app in aosp froyo(never thought I would say sense is faster). It's slow in loading images(even worse with large images), doesn't like to refresh the folders when I add new images, hates to load large folders.
Is there a replacement app I can use and get rid of the 3d gallery?
I -hate- the 3D Gallery. The Eclair 2D gallery was much better.
The only alternative I've found is bread and butter gallery (B&B Gallery) but its a bit iffy too. Why isn't there a fast lightweight gallery that works well anywhere? Ugh
why wasnt it included? this gallery is way cooler than stock android or htc sense gallery
probably not the right place to ask, but I noticed that in 3d gallery you cannot share a photo through MMS, while in the regular Desire gallery you can. In 3d gallery, the share menu does not have as an option share through messaging. Is this true or is there something wrong with mine?
thanks!

Well I'm running CM6 on my Desire with 3D gallery and I can share via MMS from the gallery no problem
and also to OP: I don't know why they didn't include it but I don't see it as too much of a problem as it is easily installed

its because if htc includes it , its highly likely that it will work better , less buggy, and more responsive, can u post the file youre using?
its because the 3D Gallery is a nexus one app, not a htc app lol here is the apk you can install it normally, also this is the version called Gallery 3D not just gallery so it dosent clash with the native htc gallery app

Its stock JPY(deodexed), works definitely better.

Hey mate, thx for rq,
I just installed this one, but it seems to be the same, when i zoom the pictures, its the same zoom quality, i think the stock gallery app from android 2.2 is much better, but dont know where to finde it :S
^The Gallery app that is linked in the above post gave me issues on Darky's rom with a JPY 2.2.1 base. It didn't build thumbnails properly and showed "no items" when I would try to scroll through the contents of subfolders.
The version of that Gallery was 1.1.30683.
Attached is Gallery 1.1.30682. It seems to work a lot better for me. Give it a shot. Don't forget to clear your current Gallery app data before swapping. (Menu->Settings->Applications->Manage Apps->(show) All->Gallery->Clear Data)
Hope this helps, let me know if it doesn't!

different Gallery3D.apk tests
I tested different versions of galleries which I've gathered since I started messing with galleries some time ago... I tagged each screenshot and apk with filesize, because I lost track from where each apk came from. I'd appreciate if somebody could help me identify them properly.
these versions are:
Gallery3D.apk 713KB - from post above me
Gallery3D.apk 973KB - probably stock 2.2?
Gallery3D.apk 1021KB - probably stock 2.2.1?
Gallery3D.apk 604KB (desire) - "hacked gallery" - the one which comes with SGS tools, or Darky's ROM 8.0
and results:
- all stock galleries (713, 973, 1021) have same crappy quality whem zooming
+ all stock galleries (713, 973, 1021) have not any ugly pattern over photos when no zoom is applied
+ all stock galleries (713, 973, 1021) are fast
? 1021 stock gallery has backward ordering of photos (newest are first)
+ 604 desire gallery has better quality when zooming probably due to less jpeg compression, and better colors
- 604 desire gallery is slow
- 604 desire gallery has some weird pattern over some images (those which are landscape and viewed in portrait mode and vice versa) when no zoom applied
- Note: when migrating from/to 604 desire gallery, you will loose an option for each photo "show on map" (GPS tags are ok, because it works in 3rd party apps)
(I didn't test any of these galleries for sensor bug, battery drain or whatsoever...)
conclusion:
THEY ALL ****ING SUCK
why the hell does the SGS have 5Mpix camera when you cannot take full advantage of it by zooming your photos?? And don't tell me that the SGS's hardware can't handle 5Mpix photos...
update:
I just switched to JustPictures! app and its great! screw you Gallery3D
update2:
Switched to QuickPic which is simplier than JustPictures! but it performs better

Is it possible to replace the HTC gallery on inc roms with the gallery from the Z-roms?
The newer (Z) gallery renders photos better when viewing. You have to zoom in a bit in the Inc gallery to get a sharp view otherwise it's a slightly blurry.
I tried pulling/installing the apk from 'Uber-Z' but it was no go.
I tried and the Z gallery on the stack ROM and it won't work.
I tried this one and it is great. It is the 3d gallery that comes with the G2 I think

I've used the one you mentioned and didn't care for it.
I also have this 3d gallery installed.
Just wondering why the pics don't render properly on the Inc HTC gallery. Thanks for trying!
The thing I like most about the Z gallery is that when you open it up it starts with viewing the most recent pictures instead of the oldest like the stock gallery.
Have you tried the 2d gallery from this thread?

Hi All,
Can some one zip me the original stock gallery app?
Something changed while updating from 2.3 to 2.4 redemption ROM of Lou and now...i cannot open the pictures from the stock photo viewer , going to album from the camera app crashes the cam, though the cam works and saves fine but its not integrated with the stock photo app.... Even a third party app which needs to attach my photo to a profile fc when i try to attach the pic.
And, no i dont want the 3D gallery app(searching over could lead me only to this one), i want the STOCK HTC sense incredible app...
please help guys
I have the feeling that this is a bigger problem than just the app itself. I would reflash the whole ROM after doing a full wipe.
Just use quickpic
