Hi all!
I'm currently totally overwhelmed by the capabilities of the new Resco Photo Manager 7 I've made the program to associate all image file formats. But I'm thinking further... Is it possible that my phone opens all images always in Resco Photo Manager, even when I open them through the HTC Sense Pictures&Videos tab? This would be so nice...
well, in the resco-options you redefine which format (*.jpg, *.bmp, ...) photo manager to handle. if you don't fix a format in the options photo manager woul'd not open it

I know that and already done it. My point is that it works only when I open images from file exploeres. I want it to work also when I open images through HTC SENSE Pictures&Videos Tab. The phone opens images from the Pictures Tab in the default HTCAlbum app, but I want it to open them in Resco
just make a copy of resco photo manager and rename the exe file to HTCAlbum.exe than copy ALL file to Winodws folder(replace the HTCAlbum.exe), than you can open images in HTCSense Camera by using resco photo manager

you should include all files (especially the dll and 2 folders...), then reboot the phone. (or not required)

It works! I didn't entirely understand your idea the first time, but now it works great, big thanks!

Hello!
Please help me how did you replace the HTCAlbum.exe file?? I can not delete or replace it either! Please write down the whole procedure! Thanks
You will need something like Resco Explorer or Total Commander to do it - the standard file explorer will not work.
On a different subject, can those who have tried this report whether the program creates any cache files and whether it is possible to install to the SD Card instead of main memory. I don't like the HTC Album app because its cache files seem to be larger than the actual files themselves and there are few options in terms of moving the cache to card storage - this could be a great workaround as long as it's not just creating another storage overhead in main memory.

Ok, my procedure was like this:
1) do a backup of the "HTCAlbum.exe" file from "Windows/" directory, for example copy it to storage card
2) select all files and folders (EXCEPT PhotoMan.exe) from "Program Files/Resco Photo Manager/" and copy them to "Windows/" directory
3) copy "PhotoMan.exe" to some neutral directory, for example storage card, and rename it to HTCAlbum.exe
4) cut the above file from the neutral directory and paste it into "Windows/" directory. The phone should ask you if you want to overwrite the file, say YES.
I used Resco Explorer to perform all the above operations
Thanks a lot. It works well.
Worked, but I must say, that when you click a random picture in the Picture tab in Sense, it just opens Resco photo manager at the start screen, and not at the picture you selected in the Picture tab in Sense.
ya can u plz tell us step by step what u just did cz my htc album always gets stuck everytime i open it directly or through camera so m really fed up of it......thanx

ok, tell you one more thing, go to resco photo manager -> menu -> general settings -> Start in folder -> Set to Camera roll
after that, you may open any images from Sense by resco photo manager

So i thought I should share this piece of knowledge with you all [For Noobs only]
"To how to hide a picture/video Folder From Gallery "
I am sure most of you will be knowing this.....but if someone dont know how to... then this is for you ..!
It is quite easy and works without any application...that might eat up your precious internal memory !!
Make sure you put all your pictures, videos, pdf files and important documents in a folder, and name it whatever you want....
Now when you name it make sure to put a "Dot" [.] in front of the folder name ... that's it ..!
Now during scanning Gallery and other application will skip this folder.......this is the same method that is widely used in Linux Operation System !
Cheers....now store whatever you want to store in your phone..
you could also create an empty file named .nomedia inside that folder...
File name does't matter.... Dot [.] is the only thing which matters..!!
you can use keep safe app u can hide vids and picture with it, the app even change the format of the pic/vid so even if u open your memory on pc it shows "name of picture.jpg.hid" and u cant see it
Hey hey Dide !! Just cut/or copy the folder and paste it to Android/data !! The gallery can't recognise the folder and if u want more privacy the download the file locker app...it's the best light , fast , great app for security
If i helped u don't shy to press thanks !
Or download secret box

For those of you who do not know how to make a .nomedia file, just download the attached rar file, extract it. Then copy and paste the .nomedia file into the folder you want to exclude from the gallery.
good thinking
Hello,
I rooted my TF 700 and upgraded to JB, delete loads of rubbish, now the tablet flies. However I got a problem with gallery app:
It dose not show any of the images I copied to tablet, the pictures I took from camera shows up the gallery but other images I copied do no show up.
I tried different galley apps all got the same problem, I tried media rescan app as well did not solve the problem.
Just wandering anyone got any ideas?
You help is much appreciated.
How did you copy the images, and into which folder? Do the files show up in the file manager at the expected location (/sdcard/Pictures usually)?

I copy the files into the same folder as where camera images stores, yes the files show up in file manager and I can open it.

You need to copy to your picture folder (/sdcard/Pictures).
Try rebooting the device. Android does a media scan when booting up, and it should pick up the new pictures at that point.
Any idea how to turn the camera's shutter sound off? I can't find it in the camera menu.

If you have root look in system/build.prop/ and change this line (or something similar) value to 0: ro.camera.sound.forced=1 -----> ro.camera.sound.forced=0. Haven`t tried it myself on the N5 though.
you can also delete or rename the sound files in /system/media/audio/ui. The filenames are self explaining and start with camera_ or video_; they are .ogg filetype.
On custom roms yull be able to

You can also switch your phone state to silent or vibrate only. This will kill the noisy camera sound as well.

Are you sure renaming was a success. Try a reboot, after that: is the sound still there and are the files still renamed?

Yeah, I even moved the files to other folders, and sounds still there.
I renamed the 2 camera_xxx.ogg and 1 video_xxx.ogg in media/UI folder.
Which files did you rename?

Exactly those. This is weird, you are rooted on bootloader is unlocked?
How did you move the files?
What is the exact path of the files?
Maybe, if they are still in an indexed dir the media scanner still finds them.
For me this was working on several devices...

I moved it to audio folder instead of UI using Root Browser.
The exact path of the 3 files are system\media\audio\UI
I renamed by adding a 1 in front of the filename.
Thanks!
Another way. Tested and verified on Nexus 5
In terminal when rooted
su
mount -o "rw,remount" /system
cd /system/media/audio/ui/
mv camera_click.ogg camera_click.bck.ogg
Not working when using HDR mode . ?!?!?
i've renamed, moved and deleted all three audio files (camera_click.ogg , focus and video), and i still have the shutter sound when using the camera AND hdr mode.
Why ?
Any progress on shutting the sound on HDR mode?
Ok guys if you want to disable the HDR shutter sound you have do some extra steps.
What you need are:
A computer PC/Mac will be fine. ZIP file explorer software (I recommend 7-zip freeware and rich format support)
Rooted Nexus 5 Debugging Mode turn on
Root Explorer App from play store
1. Launch Root Explorer and local to /system/app/ look for GoogleCamera.apk file copy it and move to SD card partition (I copy to Download folder on SD card partition which is easy to find)
2. Connect the nexus 5 to your pc/mac copy the Googlecamera.apk from SD card partition to your PC. After that rename the GoogleCamera.apk to other name on your phone.(after modifity the apk and load back to the phone it won't replace the original apk incase issues we can alway replace the original apk back to system)
3. Open Googlecamera.apk on your computer with zip software you should see a list of file and folders, open "res/raw" folder you will see few files, search for following 2 files "hdr_plus_capture_done.ogg" "hdr_plus_capture_start.ogg" what you have to do is create a empty file on your computer and rename as this two file name with the same file format. After created the empty file just drag it to the apk file that we open with the zip software. When it done you should see two file with 0 byte.
4. Copy the modified Googlecamera.apk back to the sdcard partition location. disconnect the phone from your computer.
5. Launch the root explorer on your phone and copy and paste the modified Googlecamera.apk back to /system/app/ also please remember to change the file permission to rw-r-r. open the apk and click install (it will end up Not installed)
6. Reboot the phone and open the camera app and test shot with HDR+ mode it should be silent now.
Enjoy.

Tried this; when I try and install the apk I get "X App not installed"
that is normal cause all the system app will not installed they are boot loaded. Actually I tested even you not install just go for reboot it will work too
It works perfect with Cataclysm 4.4.2 :good:
Can someone upload the modified camera apk ?

Check the folder where you stored your pics...
For a file called "no media" if u found that delete it...
If this doesn't work delete the . thumbnail folder in DCIM folder.....this should work...
But to see that file or folder.. Hidden files must be shown via file manager...
If you not found that connect ur device to pc or laptop then delete that folder....
Hope this helps

Ok I just want to make sure of no catastrophic failures, lol.. I opened "my files" clicked device storage, and scrolled all the way to last files listed without opening any folder, and I see a file called .nomedia, is this the file? You did say open a folder to find this file, but in this case its not in a folder. 2, I clicked on .thumbnails in the DCIM folder and I see images, when I delete this file, will I now loose these images? I am awaiting further instructions before I do anything, because I have moved to quickly before and lost a lot of images before.. Please and thank you for your assistance.

I have a full storage on my Galaxy S6 32G, and I'm really trying to clear a lot of photos which are about 6,000... the problem is, that every time I log onto the gallery app, it atomically tells me I have to clear my files and redirects me to the files app, where it tells me the same thing any time I click on any photo. It's telling me to clear ffilefiles while not allowing me to see any, and I want to see my photos also. How can I look at them???
Over a PC?

He stated in the OP that his storage is full.
@peteypaul You can eighter try connecting to your computer and remove/backup from there, or you can go to settings - storage and delete you "Cached Data" / Any big files under "Miscellaneous files"
