Most of the time I'm connected to a network at my university and anytime I open the gallery other shared DLNA devices (other people's laptops/desktops) in the building I'm in show up in the gallery app. This is driving me nuts, I want to prevent these from showing up but I don't see an option to do so. Searched around but found no answers.

Are you running stock or rooted or rooted with a custom ROM?

Open Gallery, press menu and select "View by." Then choose "Content in device."
That will make all the shared albums disappear.... too bad the selection won't stick. They all show up again as soon as you re-open Gallery.

I am wondering if anyone has figured out how to tag people in pictures from your WP7 device before uploading to Facebook.
AND...How to upload video to Facebook from phone from album.
Thanks
Can't upload video yet, well by default. I am unsure if an app exists to help with this. Currently I have to use Zune on the PC to work with my videos.
Tagging, not sure, seems like that is a browser enhanced feature that would use silverlight, flash or js that the newest internet explorer doesn't seem to recognize.
Pretty sure you can just tap the image you are uploading to tag it. I did it on accident and I think that was how. It might have been within the actual Facebook app. Idk

That didnt work...Cant figure it out but will keep trying.
Tagging is done by either long pressing or double tapping, can't remember but I've done it before, too lazy to try now.
Make sure you're doing it in the dialogue just before actually uploading the pic, the one where you name it and such.

Tagging can be done using the fb app for the Wp7. Tap and hold for about 3 seconds on the face that u wanted to tag, then ur fb friends list would pop out. This of course is applicable to photos which have already been uploaded.

It also has a weird behavior... From my experience you need to tap for three seconds, and then let go for the name list to show itself... I thought it should have popped up regardless...

Didnt work on the focus.
Also, no go with the other recommended method.
I was able to tag photos (really hadn't tried before).
1. open the facebook app
2. click on the photo you want to tag (already has to be uploaded to facebook)
3. In the photo view, long press on the picture, you should see the bottom menu drop off, then your contacts pop up and you can click who you want to tag it to.
I tried to look for a permanant setting for the Gallery to just show pics on the phone itself but it keeps reverting to "ALL" view where it shows my picassa / dropbox. Thank you!

I know that, but it doesn't stick lol... wtf right?
I found the answer myself lol. You need to go in to Cloud in settings and then disable Dropbox sync to gallery.
Now i just have to figure out how to NOT SHOW picassa images

Settings>Google>'Your E-mail here'>Picasa
I don't know if it actually works since i don't use Picasa. but it's worth a shot.
My Sync Internet doesn't seem to sync
desont seem to work ;(
I managed to do it with an app called QuickPic and some adjustments in the settings!
After downloading Quickpic, you go to Settings>S Cloud. There, as the first screenshot shows you disable pics and video sync. (I belive you did that already.)
Then, you go to Settings >Google then you select your mail address and you'll have the options as you can see on the second screenshot. Untick picassa and google photos.
Now it is possible you still see some of your cloud pics on your device. I'm pretty sure you can't delete some of them with the stock galery app. So use Quickpic to delete them.
Hope it helped

Make sure the synching for the Picasa albums is still off, then go into Settings > Application manager. Select the All tab, find Gallery and hit the Clear data button. Next time you open the Gallery, it will take a moment to rebuild it but the Picasa albums should finally be gone.

Any way to stop Facebook photos showing in the gallery?
New to android, why don't apps like Facebook and twitter have direct save for pictures the way iOS does?
Because Google plus uploads video and pictures once taken.
I think he means why cant we save images from Facebook to the device.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
You can't save directly to the device however if you open the picture in facebook app there are these three little dots for options (I think you know what I mean). Then go to Share and then you can share the picture with picasa, g+ or google drive. Depending on your setup / sync routine saving to picasa / google drive should be almost the same as saving to to your device directly. Only difference is that the picture is saved in your drive folder instead of Pictures or downloads or whereever you intended to store the downloaded files. Hope this helps!
Will try that on Fb. Anyway to do on Twitter? I know about screenshots but just seems iOS made doing this easier
I dont use twitter myself but if there is a possibilty to display images fullscreen it should work the exact same way

Is that a specific app?
Hi all, How are you?
I have a Galaxy Nexus with Android 4..2.2(JDQ39) unrooted.
I delete a picasa web album by mistake, but It was downloaded on the stock Gallery app (version 1.1.40001).
So I am trying to figure out where the stock Gallery app restore photos checked to be offline in order to restore my photos.
Please, Does someone know where stock Gallery app store the off line albums?
(I have already checked sdcard/Android/data/com.android.gallery3d/cache and /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.plus/cache folders and both are empty)
Thanks in advance,
Roger
How did you delete the web album? I just tried and it didnt give me the option to delete. And I havent seen an option for offline viewing.
By the way, there is no need to post the same question in two different forums.

I have deleted the album using Picasa Web interface ( I am using the old interface as I deleted my google plus profile to prevent integration with google plus).
And I havent seen an option for offline viewing

On the stock gallery app, there is an option on the top right menu(three dots on top right) to "make available offline".
So the deleted album is stored somewhere in my phone because I made it available offline (I can still the the photos on my phone, although It was deleted from Picasa Web), but I don`t know where it is stored...
there is no need to post the same question in two different forums.

That must be a stock thing. I'm using a custom ROM, which the stock gallery app is integrated with Picasa, and I dont have that option. Google is making it almost necessary to have a Google+ account. Even when you create a YouTube account, it automatically creates a Google+ account. I'm not a big fan of HAVING to have one, but its there and I dont use it other than to sync my photos between devices. To answer your question though, I have no idea where the offline folder is. Sorry.
And yes, the Q&A section is the right place for Questions and Answers.

No problem, I have searched about this issue on google, and I read somewhere that offline picasa photos should be stored on one of the following folders: sdcard/Android/data/com.android.gallery3d/cache or /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.plus/cache
However, both folders are empty on my device =/
Please, Does someone know where stock gallery app store its offline photos?

Hi guys,
I have noticed I tend to accumulate a lot of search history when using the internet browser (stock)
I have a T-Mobile Stock (rooted) GS4 and want to find an app from the market, or anyplace,
that can clean the search history for me using one button execution.
All the "history cleaners" I have tried, say they cleaned history, but soon as I open the browser and type something the old searched items are still showing up.
I'd be most appreciative if someone could point me to the solution other than manually deleting each day of history searches!
Mahalo!
Try clean master the masterpiece according to me....

+1 to the above, and the other two previously mentioned don't do the job. Try searching for something and then close browser.
re-open browser and as soon as you touch the search line the same search item is there below!
Clean using the apps mentioned, and still they appear again... not working..... :<(
Is there anyone who knows of an app that will clean the search history?...........
Thanks tho, guys!

How about History Cleaner:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.infolife.eraser
Has a Browser history record erase option.
In addition, it has a Widget which you can setup and decide which files are cleaned:good:
I'd post a screenshot, but all of a sudden am unable to upload attachments from my S4 for some reason. Files won't attach.
The Playstore has images which show the Browser History option.
I use the app myself, in addition to a different browser which has the option to erase history when exiting.

I hear ya. Here's a partial description from tthe apps site:
"It's a history eraser for android device, and it can clean history of apps by only one tap. It's similar to the "ccleaner" on PC. It can help you to protect your privacy, and it can also help you to free up the internal storage. No root premission required!
Feature:
★Clear Browser History
★Clear Call Log
★Clear text messages
★Clear Market Search............"
Maybe if you contact the Developer, he can explain or offer a solution as to why the Browser History isn't being erased, even though the description describes this as a feature.
