photo album - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

anyone else on cyanogem 7 nightly number 2 or any other rom have problems with the camera not saving to the album, then maybe a day later the pics show up or after a reboot they show up?
is there a better gallery than this 3D gallery, i hate this photo gallery it absolutely is slow and ****ty

Anyone? I have resorted to using file manager to look for pics. This nexus 1 3d gallery sucks tiny monkey dung.

There are a number of threads about this. Sometimes you have to force a rescan of the media on your SD card for it to properly show up (lots of apps out on the market like Rescan Media among others will do it). Since you have CM, there is probably an option in the Dev Tools app that will do it as well (I'm still on CM6, but I assume CM7 has it as well).
As far as a different gallery goes, the APK for the 2D Gallery was posted in the app forum (personally, I found it better than the 3D one). There are also other apps on the market you can try. I've been using the app QuickPic for a while now and have been pretty happy with it.

Thanks for the info on the 2d app...unfortunatley I cannot find it trying to search from xda app and I don't know what its exactly called either to try and properly search for it.

Speed up Market Place and Paid Apps Tab

Speed fix for Froyo Roms on MARKET
After playing with alot of Roms one thing i noticed is the incredible slow speed of market loads and searching. LeeDROID rom has excellent market speeds. The attached file is a grab of Market files from the LeeDROID rom and then packaged up to flash.
This has been tried on multiple roms and gives EXCELLENT SPEED WITH LOADING, SEARCHING and even DOWNLOADING. It is also know to give you back that illusive PAID TAB in some instances (has worked for me every time)
Give it a go and let us know what you think. Countrys with no paid apps may not add the paid tab.
Also once rebooted it may take half hour to sync up with Google before you notice the speed. But once its going it is alot faster
ENJOY!!
Install - Flash zip from Recovery or ROM Manager
of course always nandroid first before flashing anything.
I take no responsability for bricks
Big thanks to LeeDroid (and congrats on the new baby) and also dancedreamfly for helping with packaging

any feedback if people are noticing the speed difference here
Does it actually remove the Market or can it work alongside (for comaprison purposes it would be useful to download the same app within each)

it replaces it, could nandroid and compare your two different roms, but if you was suffering from slow market you will notice the speed anyway
Anyone tried this?

i couldnt tell you, i have only ever tried on Sense Roms, Previous users have told me it worked on non sense roms such as Defrost so I should imagine it would work fine as it doesnt edit any of the framework of the rom.
Ill try it tonight and see but if you wanna have a go nandroid it first and let me know the results
what's the MACOSX folder?
No paid apps on djdroid.UK network..but its super fast and is now giving me the option to auto update my apps

Same here.
The new youtube app isn't the only one that was updated. Most of the gapps also have new versions on the market. For example, the shopper app or the street view app had new versions on the market that I wasn't aware of until I searched pub:"Google Inc." You guys should probably download those as well.

Yeah probably, but the apps weren't linked to the market so I had no idea that some of the other apps were updated too. For example, maps always updates itself so I assumed the rest of the gapps would do the same.
Try avoiding the use of the "back" button while you're in the YouTube app. It hasn't crashed for me since I stopped. I'm sure an update will come pretty soon. This is an entirely new version of the app, it may take awhile to get all the bugs worked out. Looks promising, though. I like the UI.

Gallery Bug

Well, seeing yourself...
The gallery does not work. It has installed a modified version, although it did exactly the same with the original ROM base (Froyo 2.2)
What's the problem? It is normal?
Thanks...
Can you access it through your camera app?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Only bug I have with the gallery (not usung the 3d gallery using the older style) is set as wallpaper does cause fc. Going to wallpaper then select from gallery works fine. I'm confused is this bug related to the 3D gallery only?

Have you tried go back to factory default settings?

Yes! I can see the photos I've taken from the camera... it's something...
The funny thing is that the Nexus Gallery 3D works perfectly 100%. The problem is that if I attach an image in an email or change the image of a contact just let me use the old gallery... and i can't do it...

[Q] Facebook wont install

Like title says, facebook as an update from market would not install. I removed existing fb and install clean, no dice. A copy of the olderversion also would not install. SOmething about not signed came up. Any ideas?
Love the Overclocked "nonsense" CM7
I wiped dalvik fixed permissions now all is good.... except. Now it just force closes as soon as i try to open it

The latest facebook version doesn't work for me either. I have learned to back-up my facebook app before updating it.
I tried the backup and wouldn't install. I'm running the newest one finally. After a bunch of cache wipes and fix permissions I got it working. Even the backup did not want to cooperate.

Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Yep the latest FB update has issues. It installed fine for me on my G2 with CM7 nightly 41, but it force closes when tapping Profile, Friends, or Messages from the main screen. I didn't back up the previous version so I'm stuck with it until they release an update. Unless someone is so kind as to post an apk of the previous version.
It runs fine on my GF's Fascinate (running 2.1) though.
I've always found that the quality of the Android FB app mirrors the relationship between FB and Google.

new market, what do you think?

Hi there! Just saw that theres a new market for android and thought id start a thread where everyone could share their opinion!
http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-android-market-for-phones-with.html
New market:
http://www.4shared.com/file/We4ubY3v/comandroidvending-1.html
Old market (from gapps-gb-20110613-signed_rc1):
http://www.4shared.com/file/jpMBtIzA/Vending.html
for me, the new market look is really neat, the way things organized is better than just lists like the previous one.
but at the first use, it might take a while since the market needs to cache the images first, but downloads now are top notch
Aside from the look -- like it or hate it -- had trouble with search locating apps.
actually i liked the old one better because of its simplicity and the new one lags until it has loaded the pics. it will take some time to get used to it. but well see
Looks good but slow and fc must if the time.

Same idea. The old one is clear and more stable.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
Yes, old one is better.
Old one was more faster. I miss too while i'm looking for some, while tiping, no hits come on the new market. But it is more kind and i think it have a better organize from the app's.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
The new version of Market looks good but slower than the older version. I think I'll keep using the older version until google improve the stability of new Market.
The old market is better and faster the New one is to complicated to find apps
Send from my brain using Tapatalk
I would rather have the old one, when you do a search now you get app, books, and ??? (don't remember) then you have to click again to see the apps. Looked to see if there was an option to not see the books and whatever in the search but I couldn't find it,
I think it is slower and take more clicks to find what you want. Guess I'll just use the web version until they mess it up too.
My wife and I have yet to receive the latest market update.
A bit reluctant to download via the link provided above. Is it safe?
