Stock camera --> gallery. Can I change the default app?

When I try to go to the gallery through the stock camera app (by clicking the photo thumbnail in the bottom corner), it always uses the stock gallery app to view the photos.
How can I change my default to Quickpic? There was no default to reset in the first place, and when I disable the gallery app in the app management page and try again, it just FC's the camera app.

If you are on stock, disabling Gallery means disabling the camera as well.
If you are on any of the 4.4 AOSP ROMs, you can disable and even remove the Gallery application without touching the camera. But even then, after the pic camera will preview the picture in it's own application.
Mostly camera applications come with their own Gallery to be accessed after you take a pic.
So in conclusion, no you can't set any gallery app as default with camera app unless the camera doesn't have it's own gallery, but for everything else you can set QuickPic as a default picture viewer.

no u cant

KitKat Gallery on G3

I have been trying to run stock KitKat gallery on G3. It runs fine however my main reason was to use the photo editor that comes with the gallery app. But every time I try to click on the edit icon (Pencil icon), gallery crashes. Starting from KitKat google split the camera apk and gallery apk so I don't think we need to add certain Lib files for gallery to work.
Since I have also frozen Google+ apk, its gallery app i.e. photos is not available to be used as editor
Could anybody please verify or help get this working? Thanks.

[Q] Camera filters

So I downloaded filters for the stock camera of this tab, from samsung app store (galaxy app). The problem is, when I open the camera app, It doesnt display any of the new filters that I have downloaded. Any idea how it works? tia.

Camera/Gallery

I uninstalled the default gallery app and use Simple Gallery. Is there a way to tie the OOS camera to it? When I take a picture the small thumbnail shows up in the circle at lower right, but touching it does nothing, "no photo" pop-up. I have my gallery app set as default on settings.

Not sure if it will help but try installing another gallery app and see what pops up (if anything) when you touch the thumbnail from the camera app.
I have installed a QuickPic gallery (the best gallery app in my opinion) as well as the Open Camera app (used it before on my Samsung Note3 running Resurrection Remix so it kind of installed itself when I connected my google account).
Anyways, not I have a stock camera app opening stock gallery app (when touching the thumbnail) and I have Open Camera app opening the QuickPic, even though the stock gallery is set as default.
I'm thinking the issue may be you uninstalled the stock gallery before changing the defaults and now your camera is still looking for that stock app? It seems some apps can override the system defaults (as is in my case 2 different camera apps opening different gallery apps), and installing another gallery app may bring up the menu where you could choose your default gellery to open from camera app.

Bravo! I dirty flashed the ROM and it works again. Switched default to Simple Gallery, works. Froze OOS gallery, still works! Just need to change it before getting rid of it.

There is a default app in the settings somewhere.

Yeah, settings/apps/default. Just saying you need to set you default app, before uninstalling the system one or it won't switch.
