[Q] Gallery ordering problem! - Android Apps and Games

Hey all, I didn't know if this would be the right section to post a question about the problem I'm having but since it's concerning an app in android, I figured that this would be the right place to ask. I love the gallery app A LOT! However, my one BIG problem with it is the way it orders my pictures . Apparently it orders it by timestamps. I don't mind it doing it with the pictures I take with the phone's camera itself, but it really bugs me when it does it with the photos I put in myself through USB. A while back, I went through hell for hours just renaming all my pictures on my computer by name (for ex: 001.jp, 002.jpg, 003.jpg) just so they can all be ordered and organized by name. But every time I put it into my phone and open the gallery on froyo, it mixes up the whole order and organizes it by date taken. Alot of the dates are wrong (some will say the pics were taken in 1979 ). Is their anyway to change this (the ordering format)? I will be SO THANKFUL if anyone could give some advice on the topic. BTW I'm running stock froyo CM6 mod on my HD2 (US version). Any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Still nothing?? PLEASE someone has to know something..

same here
i have the same problem and it pisses me off. all my pics in the gallery are like all over the place.

I think it's crap, also, so I now add subfolders, and group pictures that way...

Yeah my pics and galleries are all over the place also and I HATE IT. Hey danger-rat, can you explain in more detail how you use sub-folders to organize the pictures? I really cant stand the way my gallery looks. Someone has to know something. I looked everywhere and a lot of people pointed out this issue yet no one has fixed it apparently. I guess it still isn't that much of a concern to most people (which sux!).

What is the fundamental difference between Hero and the G1 OS?

There are so many roms around there an one thing I cannot find is at a fundamental level,(user level) what do we gain out of using the hero rom rather than the regular g1 OS?
Is there a killer app that only works on hero? is the hero interface, better? majorly different? would like to know, please?
Could you really not find it, or did you not look? This isn't even remotely close to being in the correct section either..
To sum it up however, HTC's "Sense UI" that is implemented on HERO is essentially a home replacement (like openhome, ahome, etc...). It features many graphical enhancements as well as widgets that are not available on the stock android builds.
This link will tell you everything you need to know:

Its mostly cosmetic. Everything in HERO looks better than standard ota 1.5 android. I weighed the options of running HERO ROM or Cyanogen and HERO came out on top. I just love the way HERO looks. I love it so much, that I gave up use of my blue tooth headset.
.....the only thing I can suggest is to do some research on a "proper" installation of a HERO ROM and experience it for yourself.
toxtrepla:
to the first point, yes I looked, there is no site, thread that just has that simple explanation. I'm sure it's there, it's just buried.
Point 2. yeah, your right. my thinking was this is a forum full of hero and non-hero roms, so it would be good here, but really, I could have put it elsewhere. Thank you very much for the info.
miketaylor00:
Thanks for the pic.
SG_Shadow:
Thanks for the info. I will have to check it out. as soon as I get time to clean out my sdcard.
thanks all again.
If it were only the eye candy.... What sets Hero apart is the way it integrates your social network in one place. Right now there's support for Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Plurk, Picassa, Google, and your Exchange contacts. All of those can be merged, so say, if your friend Sally from work ([email protected]) has a twitter and facebook account, you can exchange tweets quickly and the phone will notify you they're from Sally. Also, you're out and trying to decide which pair of shoes you should get for Saturday night's ball, and you can't decide, you snap a quick picture, uploaded to your facebook (right from the camera app) and then tweet Sally to help you choose, be quick, though, your wife's almost back
@rkimbal45
What the first guy meant was you didn't look to see they have a Q&A section for what you asked, which was a question... From my point of view you have no investigative skills which led you to asking this question and not being able to find the proper place to ask it.... but hey who really post their questions in the Q&A now-a-dayz?

[Replacement Dialer]

Hey all,
I have been hunting for a dialer to replace HTC's attempt. Although there are some great attempts here in the forums they didnt give me what i wanted, which was a full size calling image of the caller (480x800) and a much cleaner dialer in general.
I did how ever stumble across Iconsoft dialer for WM 5 and 6 which does give these and alot more. The short cuts are also very attractive but I am trying to figure out how to alter the rigistry to use the Iconsoft app for contacts as default, so if anyone knows please let me know.
The app isnt free but is worth every penny in my eye as makes my phone just that bit different. this can be downladed as a 15day trail also. There are some other themes for the dialer on the site.
I have been using for a few days now and havent had any trouble with it or speed problems its is pretty solid. Hope this helps some people out with finding a new dialer.
Please feel free to post any other dailers you come across, but keep it to dialers only!

P.s Many thanks to all the DEV's for there great work here on XDA. Our phones would be very boring with out you!
Phone Extension Images
Here are the images i figured it out, didnt see the attachments thingy!
Looks like another iTurd knock-off...
Everyone to there own........
But please dont write pointless comments about stuff you have never tried!
Actually I have tried this(an older version) and I felt the same way then as I do now.
Pointless post or not, look at it. If I wanted an iPhone, I would have bought one.
BUT..... You're right. To each their own.

And lots of people like the iphone look anyway, silly to not have something you like just because it "looks like an iphone" screen

[Q] Porting the Galaxy S contacts apk?

I was playing around with my friend's captivate and the contact list had a pretty cool feature of swiping on the contact to call (swiping right) or sending a message (swiping left) I was wondering has anyone ported this over to other devices? Would be cool if it can be ported to work with cyanogen mod. Or if anyone else wants to try to do it, that would be cool.
I was told might get a better answer in this forum.
Sounds cool. Is it a modified version of the vanilla contacts .apk or something complete different?
well i got it happy enough to install, but it fc's...maybe ill take a look at it tonight...
this may be a very tough port though, it appears to depend on alot of samsung stuff

It actually looks like a modified vanilla contact apk, It's a neat feature, would be nice if it can be ported though.

I don't know about other people but besides the touchwiz launcher, how Samsung modified the OS is pretty nice, been playing with the Captivate a little more, and I have to say I like it a lot.
I accidentally deleted my contacts app on my captivate :-( I will be interested in this thread... perhaps I can get it back!

why wouldnt you just ask for it in the captivate forum
Well, because the discussion here is about exactly that apk, no?
Sorry if I misstepped.

OP is looking for someone to port it to incredible. to me, it would seem the simplest course of action to recovering a deleted apk from my phone would be to ask someone else who has that phone. hence going to captivate forum to find a captivate apk. im sure someone would post it within minutes, or you can pull it from one of the possibly many roms that are already there.
OK, thanks for the tip. Please excuse my NOOB-ness.
I'm interested too.
It's a pretty cool feature.
I had a Samsung Wave with this feature and it's very useful.

Attn:cm6 user alternative gallery

Looked around hope this hasnt been covered but if your like me and are an avid CM6 user period then you know the 3-D gallery really isnt too impressive (to say nicely) well I found another gallery that compatable not as great as the htc but havent seen that successfully ported well here it is not sure if it can be installed through Astro or those methods but I was able to ADB push into system app and *wow* it really made my day to have a faster and not so over the top gallery. Well enough babbling here it is enjoy!
Nice finding, works flawless on CM. Thanks.
Wont work on MIUI bummer.
I tried installing and pushing. Oh well.
Awesome find, I too hate the 3D Gallery. Thanks!
Thanks a billion. I absolutely hate the 3d gallery.
When I open it its labeled camera..

Thank you so much. I'm finally free from that POS 3d Gallery.
why is this better? it doesn't support gestures and the frames make it look ghetto, and it ignores .nomedia files
Anyone got a screenshot? I don't wanna blindly install this "camera" apk but I am interested.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't ever have problems with the stock 3D gallery.. Why does everyone hate it so much??
The only thing I do nit like about the 3d gallery is not being able to exclude folders female the main view

sure you can, unzip and place the attached file in the folder you dont want in the gallery and reboot. this gallery app ignores this file though which is stupid
I found quite the opposite. If you simply remove the picasa sync, the 3d gallery is prob the fastest out there. Have you tried that?

Okay Mr DonSims youve expressed your dislike for gallery I posted (2 posts within an hour both negative) however I didnt design this I jus dont like the 3D one and have read others dont as well so I figured Id offer an alternative. Maybe you should design something better rather than complaining and last I checked this was a development site not TMZ so marinate on that.
Settings, Accounts & Sync, Click on your google account and remove check from Picasa... Try it and let me know...

its DomSim and my first post was asking why this was better, while at the same time pointing out flaws in this gallery. and my second post was aiding another forum member. nothing over the top or anything require a "personal response" from you. chill out my friend, breath a bit and you'll feel better. i am entitled to my opinion and since this is a public forum, i am free to share it as long as it abides by this forums rules, so " marinate on that" and keep your call outs to yourself as i did not direct anything at your personally.

Question Can somebody please look at this code and tell me what is wrong with my phone?

Root file system - https://ibb.co/0DN4PR1
One of many, many suspicious files - https://ibb.co/VNGwr1S
I have been through numerous phones and the problems persist. It always starts with multiple Google authentication SMS texts. The a DCB authentication text. Then the entire file system end up looking like alphabet soup. I can't code but I can read, and I fear my device is affecting others devices. If anybody has knowledge in coding could you please take a look, especially at the second link I posted? There are files and folders that I know don't belong. Thanks.
this post is really strange, before requesting others to open suspicious links, what exactly are you asking for? this is fishy…
It's just screenshots., it's an image sharing site. I'm just asking if somebody can take a look at the code and tell me wtf is going on with my phone, and my life for that matter. Literally every single thing I own is ruined. I cannot flash, I cannot reinstall OS's. My router us fuct. It started in 2019 and I've been through more devices than I can count. I can't even begin to tell the story but it all dtarted when a guy that lived in my apartment hacked my S9 and gaming PC and was using the devices to order drugs to the residence.
I'm really just trying to find somebody, anybody that will look at what I'm looking at and try to find any sort of possible solution. My life has been completly destroyed.
Sorry for the rant, but, anyways, they're just large screenshots that are too big to post.
I think you would get a better response by actually posting the screen shot instead of posting a link. Especially after what you said your roommate used you account for. Nobody wants to click on a link that they have no idea what may happen.
