My facebook pictures were syncing just fine with gallery 4.2 but now they do not show up. If I do a system restore and open gallery 4.2, they show up for a split second then they are gone....with the gallery only showing pictures on my phone. Does anyone know all the settings thst I need to get them to show up again?
Would also like to add that my dropbox pictures no longer show up in the 4.2 gallery either.

I just noticed that my phone won't let me chose the Google contact photo. When I pick a contact then chose edit and go to pick a photo all I get is gallery and camera.... no option for Google. When I check my gmail contacts the photo is there. If I have the contact as a Facebook friend that photo will show. But not all of my contacts are on facebook... any ideas? I'm running the stock deodexed 3.28 Rom with root access and it use to work

Hello,
Some times, every photo and video material disappearing from my phone. Gallery shows nothing. But all photoes and videos are still on SD card. The main point, that I can't reach them. Some widgets, like gallery widget, can show me the pictures, but when I pres on the photo to zoom it - black screen appears and that is it. How can I solve this problem?
see if there is a nomedia file in your photos folder if there one then delete it and your photos will appear again
if it doesn't work then try another app to see the pictures just to know if the problem from the stock gallery app
I had a question about photo syncing in ICS
is it like iphone where any picture is synced to my google photos (or picasa)
or is the only way to have google plus installed and enable instant upload
i have 'sync google photos' checked in account settings
but all it seems to do is clutter my gallery with pictures it PULLS from picasa/google photo
and not the other way around (sends photos i took online)
is this true?
You can turn on auto upload in G+, and that should do what I think you're asking for.
I know you can do it with G +
My q was is Google Plus even NEEDED, or is gallery sync built in like iCloud
With my Nexus S, Gallery sync is included without Google+, but you still need PicasaWeb.
Gallery will still get "cluttered" with Picasa photos (auto-download is synced) and auto-upload isn't possible (unlike with G+), you have to manually "share" with your Picasa via the Gallery -> Share menu.
Don't know how ICS handles, I would assume similarly.
Is there any way to hide your Facebook photo albums that automatically get sync'd to your stock phone gallery. I want facebook to keep the photos for my contacts but not fill my whole phone gallery app with facebook photo albums. Any one figure this out?

Go to settings, accounts, Facebook, and turn off the Gallery sync. That should do it.
I am coming from the GP4, and here's my issue. When I utilize an app such as Facebook Messenger, Telegram, and select a photo it automatically defaults to pulling the photo from the Samsung Gallery. Well, when I had a GP4, it would pull from Google Photos regardless, even if the image wasn't local, it would download it from the server and send. There's no way to change the default galleries app that I know of. Does anyone have a workaround for this? Is it changeable?
There's also the issue of taking a photo or video with the default camera app and if you happen to remove the Samsung Gallery APK through the console, pressing on the preview bubble of the just taken picture or video results in an error popup that there is no gallery app installed even though I have Google Photos installed.
I wish Samsungs version of Android would be more open and not so limited to their "core" apps.
