Just switched from victory to lithium and there is no media gallery. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to download one from the market. Or if someone could post a link for a good gallery I could download! Thanks!
more bugs
Another thing, it won't allow a Facebook sync...is anyone else experiencing these problems?
QuickPic > any oem media gallery known to Android
I don't use Facebook but I was having issues syncing Google music. Wifi wasn't working for me and the pattern lock was all messed up too.

You could extract a ROM and grab a gallery apk from that and copy it to /system/app folder. Just make sure and change to the correct permissions after you move it there.

I've no gallery either, and also the camera is giving me glitches. It seems like I can take pictures just fine, but am unable to record video. It force closes after every attempt. Pattern unlock is glitched for me as well.

I dont know how you guys feel, but no facebook sync or stock gallery means no good. I tried fixing it and after hours of work I decided to try out the Sonya v2
Sorry this was my fault, dont know how I missed the gallery, will have that fixed by tonight after work. Facebook has synced with me everytime and I'm not having any issues with google music as well. I use these everyday and are a must as well. Patternlock on the other hand is a different story. I will look into it.
A note on Facebook, if you are trying to add the account like you do your Google account you can't. Just use the app from the market. It works well and I have found it more reliable this way
Had the same problems setting up yahoo, fb and twit from add accounts.I ended up getting apps from market worked out fine.
This will b a great rom when u get the gallery work out.Been running it for about 24 hours now with pretty heavy use and battery is at 27 not bad at all.installed at 95

JRW, are you experiencing the camcorder issues or is that just me? Also I just wanna say great ROM otherwise.
Edit: Also is there a way that you could get Contacts sync from the Facebook app to work? I've seen other Android phones do that with a non-modified Facebook app; I think there's something involved with blur that tells the app not to give us that option.

Yes I am and I'm hoping it is due to me forgetting to install the gallery in the Rom as everything was working fine on my test version. I will have an update out tonight after work.
I removed a lot of the blur accounts have you tried using just the app from the market? It has been working for me

How does having a Sense ROM make this useless? Other than contact integration and image uploading, what the hell does Facebook for HTC Sense do?
The notifications don't work for comments. That sucks. There is a app called f-plus that will give you notifications and Go Chat will take care of the fb chat.
I am sick of having 3 apps on my phone for the job that one app should be able to do.
On top of all that my post through the "official app" are not posting on the news feed. If anyone can chime in on that it would be very helpful.
still no chat and still can't poke! Among other things..The bottom line is If I have to open my browser to do anything then its a FAIL! Why have an app if I just need to open my browser at some point..
I just can't believe how they keep dropping the ball on this!
i can view comments from notification in the app so i am confused to as what is not working besides chat
Yes but it does not notify me on the notification bar if some one post on my wall

If you're rooted, use Titanium Backup to uninstall the system copy of Facebook, reboot, then download the Market version.
Quick question, I'm running latest euroskank on my ladies phone and mine. for some reason after she deletes some pictures from gallery they come back after a reboot. Sometimes they reappear hours later. Like I said same Rom on my phone and all is well. What do you guys think it could be? She is using internal storage btw.. Thanks in advance.

Same thing happened to me while using ICS Passion v11 on my Vibrant a while ago. I solved it by clearing data from the Gallery app, and then rebooting. If you don't reboot right after, the pics would always come back.

+1 on clearing data and cache. I think what is happening is that the image is getting deleted but for whatever reason the thumbnail isn't getting erased as well. The one and only time I had the ICS gallery bug all I did was clear the data and cache, and I have had no problems since.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Oh, and I didn't realize this, but some of the pics were synced with Picasa as well (feature of having a Gmail account on an Android phone), and kept resyncing. Try to uncheck that option as well.
So I cleared data and cache and rebooted. I deleted some pictures and rebooted again. Soon enough they were back on camera folder. I just don't know why they don't permanently delete. She has camera zoom fx. I know she recently unintalled it because it was giving her problems. Think that might be the cause?

Yea that's not the problem. I've had it unchecked for months. I'm thinking it might be camera zoom fx data that's messing things up. Like I said before she unintalled it because it was corrupting all the pictures taken thru the app. I'll delete that and see was up.
Sent from my LG-P999
Really? I've had Zoom FX installed for about 3 weeks now and I haven't noticed any problems with deleted photos. Are there any Gallery replacement apps installed? I use QuickPic instead of the stock Gallery app, since I've read it drains battery by constantly scanning for new pics.
Now that I think about it, I used the stock app on the Vibrant as well. Haven't noticed any issues since installing Quickpic... try that and see how it goes.

So are you saying you turned it off from the app or in settings under accounts? You keep saying upload but it's download you want to turn off. Camera fx won't have anything to do with this. When the app is uninstalled it has zero chance of running rogue code. Especially such a popular app as that. Try doing a search for all jpgs on your device through your desktop/laptop search function. Make sure it's absolutely clear of the photos you want including cached ones. If none of this works you might just have to do a system format and reinstall her os.

I just flashed my ROM to cm9 from cm7 and installed the google apps package.
When I log in open Android Play (same account), and go my My Apps, all my previously downloaded apps and purchases are there still there, but none of them say 'PURCHASED'. They now list the purchase price of the app. Essentially, it's not recognizing I purchased any of my apps.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
EDIT: If I go on my computer and visit https://play.google.com/store, My purchased library still exists and I am able to install it via send to phone.
So really, it's a matter of inconvenience.
I read an Engadget article saying this is happening to a ton of people and Google is aware and working to rectify it.

I have found a solution that works for me - See below
Issue:
Starting with JB (4.2.X) , I noticed that my picasa web albums no longer show up in Gallery App. when I am on AOSP or CM based Roms. They do show up on Touchwiz based ROM (for e.g. Mohan)
Root Cause: After research I found that the root cause is CM team. They have made a decision that Picasa sync is proprietary and will not be supported CM10.X onwards. See Link
Alternatives:
Option 1 (Fail for me): Picasa Web albums show up in Google Photos. Install Google Plus and then "Sync Google Photos" will show up under Google account and that should get Picasa Web albums to display.
- For me that does not work. I don't know why but it just does not. I installed Google Plus. Photos did show up under account and sync was successful, but Gallery app did not show them. I tried changing Album visibility to public, I did a clear data and force stop of Gallery under apps - without any luck.
Option2 (Success): I downloaded Cool 3D Gallery app from PlayStore. It works!!!

There's a Picasa addon in the Slim Downloads. I assume you flash it and it enables Picasa album sync? Not entirely certain as I've never used it. Flash at your own risk, I suppose.

I'm not a photo fan, so it wasn't till two weeks ago I noticed the missing picasa albums. Since then I've been searching everyday for a solution. I've tried them all: Google+, older gapps, etc. Cool 3D Gallery does the trick for me. Thanks for sharing your solution. :good:
Not a SII user, but having the same issue with my Nook HD on CM10.1..

Since the recent camera update I've had nothing but trouble with the built in Google camera app. After I take a picture the Nexus 5 will often freeze with all 4 cores of the CPU churning away. The only way to restore the phone is to reboot. I don't know if it is a bug in the program or a conflict with another app or something to do with my xprivacy settings.
I tried settings / apps and "uninstall updates", reboot, but that didn't help. I finally gave up and now use "cameraMX" app which lets me take pictures without freezing the phone. So I'm OK but I wonder if others have had the same experience. I also would like to get the apk of the kitkat camera app before the latest update to install and try. Anyone have it?
For OP,

I am now using version 2.0.002 which I think is the older version. Just used the camera now to test it and it worked fine. Yesterday using the updated camera, it constantly froze so I could not even take one picture and needed to reboot constantly. I assume location was also turned off in that updated version too. Will not update again to find out.
