I'm having a problem with regards to the photo gallery displaying way too many photos and only want to display photos I have stored on the phone and the Instant Upload folder that google plus generates. What do I have to do to make this happen?
I've gone into picasa web galleries and deleted a ton of old ones which aren't relevant anymore, but no matter what I try my gallery app is a mess of photos from posts on google plus with no recognizable folder structure or organization at all.
Should I just give up and use gallery only for local photos and then the google plus app for viewing the instant upload folder?
Is there a third party app that will do what I want?
I really can't help you with the stock gallery app as it blows IMO.
QuickPic from the market will let you display or hide anything you wish.
I love quickpic but it's local files only isn't it?

Settings/accounts & sync / click on you Gmail account(s) and uncheck the photos so it doesn't sync with your device.

I downloaded a pic from my Gmail account and now it has it's own photo album, for some reason I can't delete the picture or the damn album??
I also have what looks like a Picasa album that I can't delete but I don't even have a Picasa account.
Any suggestions. The only pics I can delete are camera photos.
NM figured it out. Annoying.
What did you end up doing?

I'd like to know as well. I have a lot of folders that are empty but i can't get rid o, on both my Transformer and my Nexus
Yeah, I posted a photo to my Google + account and now I have a "posts" album in my gallery. I deleted the photo but the album still exists and it won't let me delete it.

Try using astro file manager.

I suggest you delete it from the sd card.
Can anyone recommend a gallery app that isn't QuickPic? I like it, but I can't share photos via mms using the stock messaging app. The developer attributed it to HTC "not allowing it anymore."

I just tried to share a picture from solid explorer, and the stock messenger app isn't an option.
From this I presume that no other photo galleries or third party apps will work either. (Sharing other content to the messenger app works, just not pictures)
I use JustPictures! (http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.justpictures). It can access my PicasaWeb and SmugMug photos as well as what is on the phone.

None of the alternate photo apps allow sharing/sending via MMS and its REALLY annoying. Wish I had a better answer! Bothers me greatly too! (stock gallery app sucks imo)
Personally I think the stock gallery app is the best of any of the phones I've had in the last year. That doesn't mean I like it all that much. Quickpic was my go to over stock Google, which completely sucks, but I'm in the same boat as the rest of you with the One. Sorry no help, just joining the rant.

Does anyone know how to hide photo albums in the gallery?
I have quite a few junk files associated with pdfs and others that just fill up my gallery with junk I don't want to see.
life is better with r00t
I went into my extSdCard and built a folder called .nomedia
Then ran everything to it that I didn't want showing up in the gallery. You have to actually go to that folder to open it.

I will give it a try. In 4.2 it was easy. For some reason they had to take something that worked and break it.
Hello
Instead of what is saying in manual, i can't see Picasa Web Album in the Gallery.
My Google Account is synchronized.
Do you know what happen?
Thanks

On my G2 works perfectly Picasa
Isn't it just called photo now ever since Google bought out picasa?

If it's that it's not cool.
On G2 for example, as picasa albums appear in gallery you could set images as wallpaper or other...
Now it's not possible.

Into Google Photo app?
I use multi-photo wallpaper function, and it's not possible. It was on G2 because picasa album appear on gallery
Yes this is a problem and I would love to know why you only have Dropbox and Box to choose from. You can't add any other cloud service.
I can disable the gallery app, but for my pictures to show up in Google photos, I must have the gallery app. Any way to link the camera with the Google photos app? Like make it the default?

We can select which folders to backup into G Photos and so they can be viewed there.
Will check this tonight anyway
But if you're trying to save your photos straight into cloud instead of local, its impossible.
