Picasa folders in Gallery - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
i've noticed this annoying fact on my NoteII.
I've tried on various roms but the problems remains.
I sync my photos with google+ and it's ok with the Galaxy Nexus. I see my local folders and 1 (ONE!), only one gallery called "Automatic backup"; plus other picasa gallery, all created on google+.
This is what i have with the samsung default gallery app
countless f*****g galleries ...not even in a logical order!
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've also installed AOSP gallery on my noteII. Works fine but, what's the problem with the stock gallery?
someone else?
thanks

Remove your google account, then add it again. After login, quickly go to your google account settings and disable picasa web albums sync.
Hope this help...

Simple solution go to settings application manager scroll to all select gallery and now clear data and disabled Le sync works like a charm.

uhmmm nope,
i don't want to stop using this service, i want to use it in the right way, like the AOSP gallery
no way?

It's not properly a "fix" but...i had to delete all my google+ images on posts and now i have only my albums and the folder for the automatic backup.
On Galaxy Nexus all the f+++ing galleries are grouped under a single folder. I'm not able to understand what's wrong with samsung gallery

Do you use google voice? Do you have other names in there? What is listed as details when you click one? ....
U can even click on your post and edit it to include some more details if you're looking for help.
If u wanna explore something, to to your contacts, hit menu, more, display options.
If u have all or most of your contacts saved to your gmail account (and not just to the "phone), you would also he able to go to google.com/contacts to so some contact list maintenance.

I have the same problem haha. Its a Google contact thing.
Shifted from my Evo using XDA app.
I found that editing my contacts through google on my PC corrected most of these for me. I also got a bunch because I had two identical Facebook profiles under my synced accounts. Pared it down to 1 google and 1 facebook account, and all was good.

Hey! Don't know if you've tried this method yet but I'll post it anyway:
Transferring your contacts
The first step in this rather easy process would be to create a Gmail account if you don’t already have one. Why do you need to do this? Android requires -- note how we put that in bold italics -- a Google account in order to activate the phone. Once your new account is created add it to your device, then download Google Sync on your BlackBerry, which syncs your contacts and calendar into Gmail. The backup process can take some time, depending on the size of your phone book. But once you sync that new Gmail account to your Android phone, it will now pull all of your contacts, e-mail and calendar to the device. Rather simple, huh?
Did a quick Google search on this topic and got that info from here: http://www.androidcentral.com/jumping-blackberry-android-heres-what-you-need-know

I just had a quick check and my GN has no problems allowing me to switch accounts in the "from" field when creating emails with gmail.
I have 3 accounts and they all show up when I click "from"

I know, but when i looked for it at the market couldnt find it either, i was thinking on just apk it but had no time yet.
Now I tried and still is not working, because I meant when trying to reply or forward email, not when composing.
Still my old Sgs could do without a problem. I still think it is a missing feature.
Am I right or wrong?

Play Store showing only apps?

Hi guys,
I was wondering if your Play Store app shows only apps for you, or do you also see books, music and magazines.
Mines shows only apps, tapping the Play logo doesn't do anything:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When I go into browser on my pc, I see everything there:
Although here in Germany we only see apps and books usually I can approve that I could see both an hour ago and now the books pattern is gone.
Edit: back again
I had to reset to factory the phone, in order to get it working again.
I had the same problem
I had the exact same problem on my HTC One S, which by the way is an amazing phone, but I could solve this without factory reseting it. One of the things I did was deleating the cache of the google play store. If this doesnt work you can deleate all the data of the store without deleating other files on the phone, and I think that should solve the problem.

I haven't experienced that problem on any ROM I've tried. Are you in the US? Or are you using a VPN server or proxy server in another country?
It's not a bug, it's a feature. I wish it would show only apps to me. It is very annoying to see books and songs in search results for "angry birds" or whatever.

Media share not working correctly

I have an S20 Ultra on T-Mobile, and the media share function acts like it has no memory. The quick select doesn't work, it's like I'm sharing for the first time every time so I have to choose the app and recipient. I've already cleared the cache for quick share and made sure direct share is turned on. Any idea if there's any way to make it remember the apps and contacts, or if there's any settings I need to change to make it work like it did on my Pixel 2 XL?

I had a somewhat similar problem. In my case, I had only 2-3 contacts that never got updated with the recent people I was interacting with.
What helped is to go into the album app and enabling access to contacts (if I remember correctly). After that the quick sharing part started working again..

Do you mean gallery app? I tried that, and it didn't seem to help.
Got a security patch a day or two ago, and as of today the share option was working again. Mysterious ways.
Coming from S10+ this is really frustrating. Share menu is a mess and in any app that I want to share photos it never remembers my top contacts or even top apps.
