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

Gallery widget google plus

Hi, I search in many different topics but without answer. I also installed gapps and so on, but still cannot force gallery to show my google plus photos. On stock ROM it just works out of box, right now I use Cyan and there I can't use this feature.
Why I would like to have those photos in gallery app instead of using g+ photo app? Because I want to have a widget on desktop with those photos (with out update of album), and so far it is only method which I found (default gallery widget + Gplus sync). Do you have any ideas how to fix it?

Try clearing data on the app info for gallery and then launch and refresh in the top right menu?

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.

Replacing default Gallery App with Google Photos

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.
