Saving Pictures to External SD - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Currently I'm on the official CM10 and I can't find the setting anywhere to save my pictures to the sd card. It keeps saving it to the internal. And yes the phone reads the sd card just fine. Anybody know how to accomplish this without just using a 3rd party camera app?

I have the same problem, someone please help here. Thx!

If you are lookign to save the pictures taking by the camera, the phone will ask you the 1st time the app is open. I hope this helps

You can always reset the camera app by going to settings>applications>camera and clearing data, then it will ask any initial configuration options again.

As far as I know the CM10 camera app does not support this just yet. You can only save to the internal storage.

This is true. There is an AOSP camera mod that allows you to change the save location to the extSD and it replaces the stock camera.(It's basically the same thing with just a few mods added in)
It is a 3rd party app but it isn't at the same time. It's quite buggy ATM tho, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746611

I'd like the answer to this as well, not that it takes long over WiFi, but still.

Lmfao i know, i didnt see the [Q] button on the app...
Sure it doesnt take long but its downloading apps that i have already uninstalled in the past, and forgetting to download some apps that i usually have

I don't know if you can edit that list, but I always turn off Auto Sync before signing in with my Google Account so that the applications don't start auto-downloading before I install Titanium Backup.
I just skip signing into my google accounts until after I've installed the titaniumbackup apk that I leave on my sd card for this very reason... I so wish there was a way to edit that list Would save me a bit of time.

Pictures will reappear after being deleted from gallery .

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.

That's weird, maybe try Clearing Gallery cache?
You know I haven't tried that.. I even downloaded an alternative gallery viewer and it would do same thing. I will try that and report back with a thanks if it works.

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.

Also some apps like Picasa and Google+ will sometimes put them back on the phone.

+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.

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.

Try deleting the LOST.dir on your SD card. That's essentially like emptying the recycle bin on windows. That may help.

Did you ever get this figured out? I am having the same problem. I delete photos from gallery and they all come back. I turned off Google syncing of photos & apps data, Disabled Google +, Picasa, I don't have Facebook syncing photos, cleared Gallery Cache and Data, unloaded Dropbox, Deleted LOST.dir. Every time I reboot, the deleted pictures come back. It's driving me nuts!

[Q] no gallery on lithium Rom

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

I am using the app from market and that works just fine; except that it doesn't offer contact sync (on a non-blur phone the Facebook app usually offers an option for contact sync...)

liquid smooth Gapps?

What other gapps can you use for version 2.9 liquidsmooth for the Verizon S3 I don't like the 4.2.2 because they don't come with nothing, I mean they come with Apollo and DSP manager but they don't come with gmail or maps or none of those Google apps... I'm pretty sure I downloaded the right gapps from goo too because it said "4.2.2 gapps" and "20130301" or something like that

Aside from inverts, why do you want all the non included stuff in the gapps package? If it were up to me, gapps would only have 1 app... The playstore. I prefer all my apps to be user apps so they can be backed up and restored easily. System apps have to be set up again on each flash unless you manually restore data to the system app, which is generally a bad idea.

True true, but there are some system apps that needs some of the apps , just an example the camera uses voice search and the maps app for some features and if you don't have that than the camera force closes... I know that you can download all of those apps from the play store but still, the gapp package should require all of those apps

Complete app information?

I would like to know if there's an app which shows every detail about the apps installed on phone.
For example: some apps save data on storage and I don't know where exactly. Although I have root access I simply cannot find every data the app stores. Well hope somebody can help.
