Replacement for photo gallery - HTC One S

Is there a decent replacement for the Sense photo gallery widget?
I'd like to get the flexibility and customisation of a different launcher, but I cannot find any gallery widget as good as the Sense gallery. Actually, I cannot find ANY photo gallery widget. I would have thought this would be a no-brainer; a way of accessing all your pictures from the home screen?
If only Quickpic did a widget.

I use Slideshow (Homescreen widget). It's the only one i found that works somewhat close to the Sense widget.

QuickPic.

Quickpic, I had it on my G2, but now find the stock hTc gallery to suit my needs just fine.

As great as Quick Pic is, the original OP said he was looking for an alternative that has a good widget. He even says in the OP he wishes Quick Pic had a widget so he already knows about that app.

I really want the awd launcher but.....

I really like the features that the sense weather and clock widget, and it isn't offered with that of the awd. Is there any way to have the same features that the sense weather and clock widget have on this type of launcher. Ohh and I got the fancy weather widget, but its just not the same as the regular. HALP!
You can't have both. You have to choose.

You can only find replacements...once again sense widgets only work with the sense home.

My big thing is the HTC News widget. My favorite and can't find anything that's similar.

Yup, I'm using ADW but I really really miss that News widget
Really about the only thing I miss from sense, but it was a *nice* news widget!

Who cares if it is exactly the same? They have more skins and options than the Sense clock could ever hope for. I'm sure you could find something that you like just as much or more.

life is a series of trade offs, isnt it!
I missed the Sense widget initially, but, after doing alot of searching, I found great stuff to use with Launcher Pro...

Weather & Toggle Widgets are my favorites (mainly because the Beautiful Widgets brightness widget doesn't work with Sense phones).

I use weather and toggle with the sense clock and weather icon clones (h7c-clock.zip and h7c.zip) which you can download through the apps settings. I also have the forecast add-on for weather toggle which is nice.
I agree
I hear you, I miss the Picture Gallery and bookmark widgets, I really want to quickly view my pictures and recorded videos like on the Touch Pro 2.
I have found a nice calendar replacement, and music replacement. It's a trade off, My co-worker also has an EVO, so I like mine to look totally sleek and different, i'm happy with ADW launcher.

[Q] Replacement of HTC Sense Gallery Widget

Does anyone know of an app that has a widget that operated like the HTC Sense Gallery widget? I recently rooted my EVO 4G and am using CM7. I loved the ability to take photos on my phone, mark favorites, then have a 4x4 widget that let me scroll through pictures (I like to show my friends my pictures of my baby son).
Like I said, all you had to do was switch to that homescreen, swipe up or down to change picture.
I've been looking for a few days now, tried a ton of apps (JustPictures!, QuickPic, Flickr, 3DGallery, etc...) with nothing that comes close.
Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE: I may have posted this in the wrong forum. If so, I apologize and feel free to burn me...
The closest I've seen is the photo widget on that $15 home replacement app call spb shell 3d or something. Android at its current state does not have scrollable widget support. But replacement launchers do. Something that I think android should've had before these came about.

stock apps replacement

Hello folks... I am looking for some apps that will replace the stock apps like maps calculator gallery and all that nonsense and anything else you'd offer as a good selection of apps I also am rooted so that is not a problem.
Handy calc
Exdialer w/ notigo
Quickpic
Alarm clock plus

Handcent is also a good messaging replacement. I like (so far) OI file explorer, too.
I personally love gosmspro and andro file explorer
Here's another vote for Quickpic to replace Gallery, although I'm happy with Gallery. Fancy Widgets is a nice replacement for the stock widget. Still haven't found a good replacement Weather Widget, though.

beautiful widgets, rocks for weather
Beweather has my vote for weather widget and app.
Gosms pro for messaging
make your own clock for clock widget
GoSMS Pro for Messaging.
QuickPro for Gallery - The stock is not that bad but it could be better.
Mobo Player for Videos.
If you don't like Sense, there are a variety of lauchers (Go Launcher, ADW, LauncherPro, and etc.)
ES File Explorer - I prefer this over many others because it have a clean UI and also have quite a bit of functions.
WidgetLocker for lock screen.
Handy Calc, Cube Calc, or RealCalc for Calculator.
Thankyou I use most of these as is and really do love them

Gallery widget no sense

Hi, I wonder if you can export and operate the gallery widget of sense on another launcher. To be sure that where you can browse the photos!
There maybe a replacement widget?

[Q] Looking for Picture Widget similar to that in JellyBean 4.1

Hello All,
Can someone please point me in the direction of a Picture Widget similar to the one in JellyBean v4.1
I really like how you can have the widget flip through images that are assigned in a gallery folder.
Now that I am using a 3rd party launcher I cannot access that particular widget goodness.
T.I.A.
Which one? Any screenshot?
Hello webharsh,
I dont have a screenshot at the moment.
I wasn't anything fancy just a built(stock) widget that was nearly the size of a homescreen, displaying only one image at a time. The coolness was being able to flip through the images.
T.I.A.
I have JB on my phone bu there is no fullscreen gallery widget.
Are you looking for Sense Gallery widget instead?
Auhhh that could be it.
Is it as I described?
T.I.A.
I don't know of any other widget which can give you almost full screen photo widget.
But give a try to android stock gallery widget from any AOSP ROM (or CM10/AOKP). They are pretty .
Thanks webharsh!

Try using CM based ROM (bruce JB or AOKP) if you haven't used yet. You will be thoroughly amazed .
Coo!
Thank you!
I think you are talking about "Photo Album" widget..
See the screenshot.
If this is the widget you are talking about, then sorry to say you can't have it on a third party launcher. It's a Sense based widget and can only be use with HTC Sense.

Thank you anasmunir!
That is the exact widget I was looking for.
Sadness to be so close an yet so far.
