[Q] slideshow picture widget - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First off, if this is in the wrong section, sorry I looked in the other sections and seemed best off here.
I am in need of App advice. I have my phone running UD 2.5.0 and the only thing im missing on my screens is a nice picture widget that rotates pictures based on a schedule I set.
It has to be able to read internal memory and the sd card.
I have tried Turtle Photoframe, but it is terrible at how its cropping my pictures, so its out. I tried out a few others from the market, but they would not see the internal memory.
Anyone have any advice on a better app? Thanks, and Happy Holidays!

Update
Well someone pm'ed me and mentioned Photo Gallery Widget from the market.
I tried it, and it works decent, but unfortunately does not see internel memory. Bummer.
So, my quest is still going.

Favourite People Widget (3x3 Layout)

Hey guys,
So i've finally become in the possession of an HTC Desire. Been a user for about 24 days or so and I like the phone better than the Mytouch 3G by FAR.
I have a little problem though, you see...
Everytime my favourites widget loads with all 9 contacts on the screen, their contact pictures are pixelated.
When I first assign my contacts with their pictures, I use nothing but High Res. Pictures that are cropped to a fairly large size. Ive tried minimizing the size I crop them to, but that hasn't helped either.
Throughout the day of using my phone, i'll notice the pictures go from their high res. quality back to their pixelated form. Ive even seen it in front of my eyes. Ive tried to link it back to my task killer, but ive done various test and have concluded that the task killer doesnt affect the pictures turning pixelated.
So I'm wondering, does anyone have this problem on their Desire, and if they've found a solution, what is it?
I'm currently running stock rom on Telus Mobility
Cheers!
Sorry, but can an Admin remove this thread? Thanks!

[Q] Issue with picture gallery after Juggernaut 4.1 install

Hi everyone,
I love this phone and the ROM. I'm unable to post this question in the Juggernaut thread because I'm new to the site.
But I followed the instructions to the T and everything is working GREAT. One problem though.
When I go into the picture gallery. it's like an art show. There are weird colors and stuff on the background and none of my pics show up once I click on their folders.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any fixes? Or any recommendations?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Wow, that is odd. Try going into settings, applicatons and wiping data. Or you could download quick pic from the market( its a much better pic app then stock gallery and its free) and see if your pictures show up there.

[SOLVED] Corrupt Image bug?

I don't know if I'm the only one experiencing this, but some of my images I guess become corrupted I think. I'm not sure how to explain it, just look at the screenshots. When i go to the picture, it's fine, but a split second later a bunch of gray lines cover up the whole picture. I don't know what could be wrong?
One picture shows it as the lines start and the other shows when it's fully covered.
Yea it sucks just delete them. Not sure why these phones do this.

Don't delete them. They're fine. Did you try viewing them in a different gallery, say Quickpic?
This happens with progressive jpeg's due to a gallery tweak for "HQ" images.
B39 of AOKP removed this tweak.
I'm not sure if CM9 has, I'd assume not.
In any case:
QuickPic is a great alternative that will allow viewing AND setting as wallpaper despite the native gallery errors.
Extremely helpful, thanks guys. It was starting to bug the hell out of me.

My First Flash with AOKP M1 build 4

HI All,
I was trying to resist flashing a custom ROM for my Koodo T989d, but curiosity got the best of me! So I flashed AOKP 4.2.2 M1 build 4, my fears of bad call quality seem to be unfounded as the call quality seemed the same as before, the baseband remains the original Koodo/ Telus.
The thing that I expected, a performance boost also did not visually seem apparent. Although, my Antutu score increased from roughly 8900 to about 9300. Great ROM seems very stable, 12 hours of tinkering and had one FC in the gallery. I was assuming this ROM would be overclock-able, but it's not, I'd like to get it to at least 1.7 like my HP Touchpad.
Also, the external SD seems not to get "mounted", meaning that in Storage info, the details of what is stored on the SD are not displayed. But Google music, MX player and QuickPic do see it and displays the proper content. But with ES File explorer, "external_sd" is empty. I'll read some more threads to see if this can be fixed, but if anyone could point me to the thread/posting that fixes that it would be great!
Finally, even with Google Now working, a feature I really wanted to check out, still not too sure how it could really help me. I miss the Touchwiz UI, icons, dialer/ call display. Oh and the lockscreen widgets...hmmm not sure what to say they might be useful, probably just have to get use it.

On JB you will find your SD card in /external_sd and not /sdcard/external_sd.

There are a couple of touchwiz themes for theme manager that will make your dialer look pretty close, with AOKP you can put any widget on our lock screen that you desire (I don't find it very easy to use but it works) so you should be able to find something out there that will scratch the lock screen itch, I put beautiful widgets weather and clock on my lock screen and I smile every time I unlock my phone!
Getting a kernel usually solves most of the problems you are describing (call quality and OC).

Gallery issues on 4.3

I see a lot of posts, and I mean a great amount of posts, hundreds, about gallery not working and making the device reboot.
I've had that a lot, and what I do is use a file explorer to access dcim file on internal SD card and still choose gallery app to view my pics.
I'm under the impression that there's a conflict somewhere when the app is creating the preview where the folders grid appears. Well, is known that erasing everything and formatting both SD cards may solve this, but, why would I have taken pics if not to see them again later? Defies the purpose of saving the pics. If every time I flash I have to reformat and cannot paste back videos or pics taken before.
That brings me to something else but related. In my search for the perfect ROM, is clearly a personal choice and not a fact, I flashed Slimbean by prbassplayer and is flaweless with out any gallery issue or any issue for that matter. Every build since beta stages has worked well. I love it but I'm a flashing addict and I like all the newer bells and whistles other guys are adding. I'm in no way gonna ask Slim devs to change their minds and turn their ROM into a PA ROM.
In turn, I'm asking here; is there a way to get a working gallery like Slim's gallery on other ROMs? I mean no other ROM has a fully working gallery for me without a full formatting of my SD cards but slim. Can this be replicated on other ROMs?
I'm not complaining really, I've tried many ROMs and flash knowing the issues, I read the threads. I'm no dev nor have the time to learn or a PC with the capabilities to build ROMs. This is not a demand either. Is that I think slim guys are doing something different than the rest which results in a fully working gallery app.
Should I try to change gallery apps between ROMs and flash? Is it a bad idea?
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if I just was lucky....but I did only 2 things to avoid the issue....and it never happened to me.
I used 2.6.1.0 twrp.
I transferred only my videos from my internal sd to my laptop. Not my pictures. And I don't have an external card.
Just my experience. I never would have erased my entire internal sd just to use 4.3....not that important to me. Seems pretty much the same as 4.2.2 in my eyes.
Actually ....I'm about done being a flashaholic myself....just want stable....so now I'm on stock Telus 4.1.2....rooted and heavily debloated and greenified.....and everything is perfect.
Do I miss any aosp options....sure....but phone is smooth and every single thing works flawlessly. Pie? There's an app for that. Halo? There's an app for that. Themes? There's an app for that. Call blocking? Built in. Different lock screens? There's an app for that. Etc....etc. lol
battery problems? >>>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2461864
I have the exact same issue with all of the 4.3 ROMs except Slim: Flash some fancy new 4.3 ROM, go through the initial setup, 'ooh' and 'ahh' for a bit, and then click on Gallery and watch it reboot.
A shame really as I'd love to give new/different ROMs a good week or so of use before deciding but I use the Gallery every damn day so I run right back to Slim.
