[APK]QuickPic on ICS. Really faster than stock Sense Gallery - HTC Sensation

For ICS users :
I have about 3'000 pictures on my SDcard, and each time I scroll on gallery, I have sometimes 3-4 seconds lag before thumbnails appear.
See screenshot :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So I tried several Gallery applications and found this one : "QuickPic".
First time you scroll, thumbnails will lag to appear, but once all thumbnails appeared once, you'll have then instantly, like old gallery on Gingerbread, but a lot smoother.
So try it and tell me.

I've Been using quickpic for a few months now and love it. You can hide folders and set it so the new pics are on top. Great app. Plus like you said it loads way faster.

Yes, but you can also choose another application to read videos.

QuikPic really is the only way to fly. Its infinately better thab the stock gingerbread gallary. And the stock ics gallary is just awful the way it presses the pictures up against one another.

Tried one that before its nice but when discovered this JustPictures also nice, not only browsing pics from local sd it also allows browsing photo from you social network sites (Flickr, Facebook, Picasa and others) nice interface and does have slideshow. And best of all its free and no Ads.

There is a thread about JustPictures actually. I used JP on my nexus one and was flying so I can only imagine on sensation. The only negative is that it wasn't able to view the vids, because it was...duh...justpictures lol
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=856791
BTT: I haven't tried Quickpic but I heard it was a good pic viewer as well. Because of the ability to actually "view" the vids is a plus IMO to pretty much replace the gallery3d which is my fallback app lol.

Been using quickpic for ages. There is simply nothing better if you want fast.

JustPictures seems interesting, but when scrolling, thumbnails are not so immediate as QuickPic, and after going to Picasa pictures, I was unable to return back to local pictures.

[APP] Netfront Life Screen Launcher

Found this floating around the web & thought I'd share, they have a very interesting UI it's rather different.
A home app replacement with an easy-to-use interface that delivers previews of social network updates as well as phone services data. Pick a service, such as Facebook or Twitter, to see recent updates. Choose Call History or Contacts to call someone. Use the app launcher cube to quickly find any installed app and launch it.
Based around a single circle of icons, you can control every aspect of your phone with a single screen. Two to be exact The second of which is the screen that holds all your applications in a very slick cube design.

PLEASE NOTE: I am not the developer of this app I'm just sharing.
The youtube vid looked pretty cool so i downloaded it to my eris, but when i try to open it gives me an error message and force closes.
Same thing on CDMA Hero.
Tried it on my N1 but found it isn't that smooth....
Love the idea, and it looks great, but it's laggy even on my speedy DX.
kinda nice, thanks for sharing
hope they improve
Yeah, gave it a shot on my Nexus this morning. Needs some smoother animation, more widgets and wallpaper changer.
It looks nice, just not for me.

I'd also like to be able to change out the buttons on the circle app launcher, as some of them can't be removed.
Thanks, about to try it out
I downloaded it yesterday, and I must say I love the concept. It's not too smooth on my Droid 1, even overclocked to 1.25GHz using Slayher's Kernel running Team D1-MIUI.
I haven't had many problems. Only problem is that the widget I selected doesn't always appear and when it restarts, it takes a while for it to start.
its alight...a bit choppy on my vibrant but after some streamlining and if you had the option to customize things it could be pretty cool.
Installed but decided to decline the T & C's, now uninstalled. Is it commonplace for apps to use the email address and name of the handset owner? Perhaps I'm being overcautious.
Can anyone set a different mirror or send this to me, had a problem with the original download and now it won't let me download it....

REALLY slow and buggy on my Mytouch Slide. :/
I'll wait until all the kinks are worked out...
Interesting concept. Would be a good basic OS for some basic phones (non android).. Perhaps flash based etc.
A bit slow and laggy here and there with my Galaxy S. A bit too 'fiddly' for my liking. Good to show off, but too hard to access things quickly.
I used it for some days but you can only have 2 custom icons and you can't remove mixi (japanese social website), the music one play only musics 1 per one and it can't be used on backgrond (it use the one you sometimes have when trying to listen some songs on the phone but not the full featured one)
I've sent my review hopping that they will improve these
its very buggy XD got desire
A bit laggy on my DHD when i swipe to scroll. but when i select an item it scrolls there fast, nice and clean.
Just downloaded and it works fine on my unlocked/rooted N1. Running the latest MoDaCo FRG83D ROM.
Once everything is cached, it runs pretty smooth on both my Captivate and Tab. Icons are pixelated from being stretched on the Tab though.
Major gripe is not being able to have music playing while doing anything else. Definitely going to check out the updates though.
Thanks OP for the find!

[Q] 2D Gallery?

I really hate the 3D Gallery and all the 2D Gallery apk's i've tried won't install.
I don't mind having both if installed rather than replacing if this is easier.
Any ideas?
Thanks
JustPictures!. Awesome gallery app that you can also view your Flickr, Picasa, Facebook, etc. Fast and smooth. I hate the 3D Gallery.

Just tried Justpictures!
The app is not bad... but the thing hogged my processor until I had to uninstall and eventually reboot (despite killing it, the thing rises from the dead!)
Awesome thanks, i do prefer the standard 2D gallery but this will do just fine for now
*EDIT*
Actually now i've changed some of the settings so it looks less "cartoony" ... i love it!
Cheers
Wow, JustPictures is awesome
Annoying issue's i've found no i've had a chance to play with it ...
- When you delete a photo it doesn't delete it from the main gallery
- No upload/share options

Actually it does both.
1. The main Gallery app doesn't see the change, I have a widget on my desktop that's "reload media" and it forces the phone to re-read media on the "sd" card, so when I go back to the gallery, it will "see" that it's gone. You can normally do it by force closing the Gallery app or relaunching it a couple times for it to see changes.
2. tap and hold a picture, or while viewing a picture press menu, then select SEND PHOTO, then it'll open up the "Share" menu.
Ok thanks.
Ahh i see ... thats why in the main gallery when i choose the photo that should have deleted it's blurry.. because the main gallery app has just stored/zoomed in on the thumbnail
Try this

Go to the market and download Launcher Pro. It's free and will kill the 3d drawer and revert back to the old school 2d instead. There are a few other benefits to using Launcher Pro. Hope this helped!!

Camera Alternatives

Since everyone knows how bad the stock camera is on the phone, let's recommend some camera apps to help everyone out.
I love taking pictures, except I only used the 3D for 3D photos. Almost a bit embarrassed to take 2D ones, but now I'm happily taking photos all the time with a few camera apps.
My favorite is definitely Camera360 its free and has a lot of different effects that you can apply. I find this camera very helpful because of how vibrant the colors look. Can't find any fault with this app and the pictures it takes are just beautiful. Lots of settings to play around with too. Since its free, feel free to download it, play around with some effects in there and see how you like it.
Next on the list is LittlePhoto. Very simple to use and pictures comes out pretty nicely. Also has a lot of effects to pick. Free also
And then there's Pudding Camera, another free app to try out. This one has a few different cameras you can choose from with individual film you can put into them. One feature I found that some people might like is a camera on here called Panorama. It doesn't take panorama photos, but instead takes them widescreen. So I guess this might be nice for those people who don't like taking 4:3 photos.
Just for fun, here is TattooCam. I guess you can tell by now that its also a free app. Pictures from this app are pretty good and its very fun adding tattoos to people. Looks very realistic and fooled a good deal of people. Whenever I show this camera to friends, we usually have a pretty fun time just placing them on random places.
Well, those are the camera app replacements I use the most. Personal Favorite is Camera360. Anyone who is unsatisfied with the Optimus 3D's stock camera can give these a try. Free apps so no reason not to.
If you have any other recommendations, please recommend. I'm always looking for some good ones, new ones, funny ones, interesting ones to use.
Thanks for sharing.
I use Pro HDR Camera
camera 360 the best...unfortunately it saves everytime also the original one,and the image isn't at full 5mpx

Actually, if you look at the Settings you can unchecked the option to turn off the autosave original image. And I'm taking pictures at 5mp. The same resolutions as the builtin camera.
Did you check the camera settings?

Where are you pressing settings?
they have settings in two places.
If you press Menu on the homescreen it'll show just 4 things with one being like... "check for updates"
The settings menu i'm talking about is after you press a camera, on the bottom Bar on the right most side is that gear icon for settings.
I can post a picture if you want

thanks mate,i found it
edit-i saw now the screen...thanks,maybe are useful to other people
p.s. i set to 100% quality also
I can recommend Camera Zoom FX which at the time of posting this is on offer for ten pence (or ten cents in America) until tomorrow. Takes much better pics on my stock gingerbread O3D than any other app I have tried and has some nice handy modes I hadn't really considered before like burst and time lapse.

Installed perfectly, works great! Like the interface and options, and the swipe to zoom is pretty awesome.
This is pretty neat. Definitely a keeper.
FWIW (so people don't get confused or get on here whining "the map isn't working!") - The map is only useful for pictures that you had the GPS turned on when you take a certain picture..
Im quite fond of it, thanks!

Agreed, works well! Thanks
Not sure why, but I just noticed that the sort-by-month is working, but seems to be a little strange. It's grouping a bunch of pics I took within the past few days at the bottom of the roll as December 1969.
I assume this is because they weren't time stamped correctly in the EXIF by the camera, and that date is the earliest possible by default. It would stand to reason that the file name order *should* also be the chronological order in which the pictures were taken - but since it groups by month, it uses the EXIF date instead of the file name to order the pics.
The point is this: make sure the camera is correctly tagging your pictures or the order of your pictures in the gallery will be all messed up.

But about the "online" option I can't acces my picture in google pictures or picassa web, is that a bug? There is no place (that I found) where I can configure an online provider.

I hate the **** gallery on this phone. Love basically anything else about it and being one takes tons of this and loves organizing them is there a better gallery app without ads? Missing my LG G6 cause it's gallery was perfect.

Ive just come from using galaxy phones. The stock app on that is way way better than the one on the op7p. I'd love to be able to import it over somehow. I'm currently using F-Stop gallery which is pretty good
I have Google photos app along with my Amazon prime photos but I still miss the simple gallery that was LG even Samsung's is better on my old gs6. I'll pay $5 for a decent app but all on play store seem to be bad
I'm using Simple Gallery Pro

Doesn't disabling stock Gallery prevent you from viewing photos taken in the camera app?

Oh I see, maybe that's why I was dealing with issues when I previously disabled the stock Gallery (didn't select a new default).
However I noticed slow motion videos don't properly play on my iMac unless I edit and save the video with the stock Gallery app, so I may have to keep it for that one reason.
Unfortunate because I was wanting to freeze the app now that I know the issue I previously mentioned can be resolved by setting a different gallery app as default.
Do you guys know of any gallery apps that allows printing from the 3 dot menu? I use Piktures because it has the option, but the UI bothers me a bit so wanted to see if there were other alternatives.
