I have been testing and trying a few word apps, I like the Hanscom apps for their funcionality but I don't like that it created a new folder "my Documents", and I see no where in options that I can change the default save location. I can change it under "save as" but not the standard save. So I have essentially 3 documents locations sd card-documents, sd card- my documents, extsdcard documents.
Does anyone know how to change apps default storage location?

You don't have to put them in that folder to choose them as wallpaper, just click the "albums" soft-button in the wallpaper chooser, and you can point it to other locations. I recommend just putting them in a folder on your SD card, that way it will save space in your phone's memory, and they'll still be there after any hard-resets. If you don't have an SD card, the normal My Documents folder will do just fine.
Hey Guys!
I wonder if anyone can help me,
I have say a TON of wall papers and i like to change often or blue tooth them to my friends,
On my Ext SD card, I have folders named "Abstract", "Nature", "Cars" etc etc,
So when i go to my Gallery i now have lots of different folders "Bluetooth", "Camera" and then each individual Wallpaper folder ("Abstract" etc etc)
I am just wondering is an app that will allow me to make a "Sub Folder" called "Wallpapers" for instance, and then put all the other folders inside it (Abstract, cars, etc)..
Just so it makes my Gallery less cluttered?
I hope that makes sense
Try Quickpic
perchè autsiddm
try this one, scalado
when i had my gs2 skyrocket i could long press on the screen > folder > starred contacts
this would automatically create a folder with all my contacts that i had designated with a star. The folder also had a special design to it.
now with the gs3 i can see how to make a folder, np, but the option to create specialized folders like this and for example "pandora playlists" are gone. i cant seem to find that anywhere.
Am i missing something or are these specialized folders no longer available in gs3?
any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Right now my settings for photos are to ext sd but I noticed when I try to reorganize my photos using gallery creat new album and moving photos, the new album and accompanying photos go to internal storage. How do I set new albums to default to external?
2. If I create a new directory in extSdCard dcim directory , I notice the gallery needs to be restarted and creates duplicate album entries in gallery.
How does i create an album on ext card to move pics there in gallery?

I would like to know this aswell. I find the gallery to be very unorganised.
Folders from dropbox and google and camera and external sd card and so on and so on..
Select all,Copy/Paste to a newly created folder on the external SD card.
hi Hagba
I did that using Solid Explorer. Create a folder, select the pics and move.
Then when I launch Gallery, it actually creates 2 duplicate albums (one with a SD icon and one without) showing duplicate photos.
It's a weird quirk.
I moved all my albums to extSDcard using solid explorer and quickpic and when I use Gallery , it shows duplicate albums (one with the SD icon and one without).
Does your gallery show the albums moved to Extcard correctly without a duplicate?

Why not use the stock "My Files" app?

As the poster above said I used the stock My File application,Selected all the pictures and pasted to a folder I have created on the External Card and after that DELETED the empty original folder from the internal storage card,so no I have no duplicate issue. .
Whenever I open the gallery, all of the artwork from my mp3s is mixed in with the my pictures. This makes it next to impossible to find something quickly. Is there an easy way to organize them out or hide them without clicking each individual picture? This seems very dumb. My iphone, nor any other phone I've ever used does this. Thoughts?
In your music folder, put an empty text file with the filename 'nomedia' (without the quotation marks and file extention). Then in settings > apps > gallery , select clear data.

Sorry for being dense, but the hierarchical structure you listed doesn't work.
Did you mean setting>general(tab)>apps?....if so "gallery" isn't listed there. If I go into gallery and try to move the photos, it just randomly moves them around.....no labels or anything. I don't understand. Do I need to go into my windows explorer on my pc to adjust the folders?....that seems dumb that you can't easily do it from the phone.

It normally has to be done on the computer I believe but it might not let the android media scanner find your music or use the pictures for album artwork. I honestly I just use QuickPic and it has the options to hide(.no media) and exclude folders and I just select exclude folders from my main music folder so it doesn't include them.

Hi!
Yes i meant setting>general(tab)>apps. Under apps if you scroll horizontally u will find gallery under 'ALL' tab.
In order to move files, folders or any other operation to a file or folder, you need to use a file manager app. There are different file managers available for android. Personally i use ES file manager. A pretty good app called just File Manager is already there in G Pro. You can use it to manage your folders.
As jesi.james above pointed out putting the .nomedia (sorry i missed the '.' before nomedia in my previous post) file in your music folder will hide the album arts from the gallery but it will hide the music files from the music player as well. I am sorry i wasnt aware of that. i do not store my music on my phone. I listen to it from play music.
To solve your problem, i found that there is an option in the gallery menu to hide/show albums. You can choose the albumd you do not want to see in your gallery. If you have a large music collection, you will have to select the albums one by one. Frustrating.
Next option is to use Quickpic. This is a very good alternative to the default gallery and it gives you options to select folders you want show or hide in quickpic as mentioned by the guy above.
