[Q] Camera save location - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
It seems like the stock camera app is saving pics taken "normally" and videos in the one folder while shots taken in burst mode (even if only 1 shot was fired) and timeshift burst photos are put in separate folders. This means that a single burst, even if there's only a single file, is in it's own folder.
This makes any gallery app a mess because it honours the folder structure first and then the user defined sort order second.
I would like a way to force the app to consolidate all my files in a single folder or find a way to force a gallery app to display them all as a single folder. The Google+ Photos app will do this but it doesn't let me choose which folders to include or ignore so it pulls all non-photos as long as there are images. I really like Quickpic but it doesn't do what I need at the moment.
Can somebody please tell me if what I've requested is possible? I am open to using alternative gallery apps.
Cheers!

[Q] Problems with gallery

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

[Q] Different display for pictures

Hi
I own Sony Xperia SL. Its quite a good phone.
My Problem is all the pictures that enter my phone.ie from Whatsapp,Facebook, are visible in the gallery.
Is there any way I can make only camera pics (clicked one) visible in the gallery and not others?
Create a file named .nomedia and put in the folders you do not want to appear in the gallery.
Or use this app:

[Q] Deleted Photos stock gallery app (on SD Card) come back to haunt me

I really like the way the Stock Android Gallery app handles my photo, rather than the Sony Album app. But recently I noticed that my phone has a number of photos that supposed to be deleted re-appeared in my Gallery app. Very strange.
I installed Google KitKat 4.4. Gallery and Camera app , installed google plus, thus the "photo app" came together as well. All photos save to SD card DCIM folder by default. I did make sure that cache cleared, thumbnail rebuild after each test below:
1. Delete a photo from Gallery App, it disappear from all photo viewing apps, including the Sony Album App.
2. Check ES Explorer, the photo supposedly deleted still in there.
Tried again, using the Google Plus photo app
1. Delete a photo from Google Plus Photo App; made sure empty the Bin as well. Check all photo viewing app, the photo has been removed.
2. Checked ES Explorer again, the photo deleted is still there!
Then I tried Sony Album App
1. Delete a photo from Sony Album App. All photo viewing apps have the photo removed
2. ES explorer: this time it removed the photo there as well!!
Is this some kind of feature that the google apps build to protect accidental deleted image? If so, how come the photos are still there after Bin was emptied? How to make sure the photos that I wanted to delete is genuinely deleted? (apart from using other apps)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It gives you the option when setting up the Phone to backup to Google so check your sync settings.
I didn't even turn on the photo auto backup. So there is nothing I can set there except from logging into google account.
As for the Gallery app, I can find any setting regarding deleting photos. There is not even a Bin folder in there.
Bump. Anyone can help?

5 BEST ANDROID APPS TO HIDE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS
1. Hide Pictures Keep Safe Vault - is one of the best apps to lock away your personal pictures and videos with ease. The app makes it effortless to simply store away your videos and photos in a safe vault. The separate gallery is kept hidden from the regular ones. I have used the basic version of the app for a while and it worked perfectly.
2. Gallery Lock (Hide pictures) - is one of the most popular apps around for Android. Almost every friend of mine recommends this free app for daily usage. I was pleasantly suspired to see the robust feature list of this app. Gallery Lock comes with almost every feature you would want from an app that hides photos and videos for you.
3. Hide Something - Photo, Video - With Hide-Something, your public gallery remains available to your friends, family, and coworkers. And your hidden images are only for who can unlock. With Hide-Something, you can customize your gallery when you want to show different photos to different people. With Hide-Something, you can share your photos and videos easily, even hand over your cell phone to others and no worry about your privacy.
4. Gallery Vault - Hide Video&Photo - comes with a simple and understandable interface and a good design. You simply need to move the images to the GalleryVault and they will be kept safe behind a lock code. The app also has the option of making the launch icon hidden; virtually making it completely concealed from your device.
5. Hide Pictures & Videos - FotoX - allows you to store your private pictures and photos in a secret gallery. If you want, you can take a picture directly from the app itself and it will be stored instantly. It is a great way to avoid the extra work of manually selecting pictures and hiding them in a secret vault.

How to stop screenshots from going into the 'Camera' folder?

I am surprised to discover that all my screenshots automatically go into the "Camera" folder which is uploaded to Photos. There is currently no option to stop my screenshots from uploading to Photos, but I was wondering if there is a way to create a separate folder for all my screenshots so they won't automatically go into my camera photos?
