Anyone lost the thumbnail previews in the gallery for videos?
Ever since I rooted and left the original rom, I notice that the video thumbnails are static and no longer animated. I reverted back to stock; no go.
Anyone else experience this?
Thanks

hi all,
just wondering whether some of you noticed the lag in loading the gallery?
or just after taking a picture, the newly taken picture takes a really long time to load?
i suspect its something to do with the usb read speed.
Same here. Sometimes it even needs a reboot until newly taken pics show up in the gallery. I just use the filebrowser to display pics.
I think the gallery never really worked fine i already had issues on my n1...
I've found that when Bluetooth is on, my Gallery lags badly. But it goes back to normal when Bluetooth is switched off.
The gallery app seems to try and discover all of the pictures on the phone...that's maybe what takes so long? The other day it discovered some album art- I don't want album art displayed in the gallery.
I have also noticed it takes a couple minutes to add a recently taken picture into the gallery. Weird.
same here gallery lag ...
any fixes for this yet?

You can exclude any folder on your sdcard from displaying pictures in the Gallery by adding a blank file named .nomedia into the folder. This tells the media scanner to skip that folder when indexing the sdcard. Two caveats to that: first is that it excludes sound files from the music player also, and it excludes all subfolders of the one with the .nomedia file in it.
The lag in having a pic you just took is also annoying. You could probably force a faster review by getting that app from the Market that forces a fresh run of the media scanner. Google must have built some delay into the stock scanner that keep it from constantly running to improve battery life or phone performance. The media scanner sucking up resources was a common complaint on the SGS i9000 forums for a while.
I'll bet you could write a Tasker profile that forced a fresh scan after any new pictures are taken. That might backfire in terms of performance though.

^ Truth.
And I've also experienced Gallery lag. It's really frustrating.
I am running Infused 2.04 on my Infuse, and have always had the problem where photos taken while the phone is vertical, end up sideways when uploaded to Google+, sent in emails, and on the phone itself after I flash a new rom.
In other words, it seems the pictures themselves are not embedded with the picture orientation data, so when opened in other places, they are not rotated correctly.
For some reason, they upload to Facebook correctly, but no where else.
Resurrecting this thread.. Anyone happen to have a solution?
In my case, my portrait photos get rotated in Facebook, Google+, Twitter... seemingly any app I connect to using the "Share" function in the Gallery app. Oddly enough, the photos display in the correct portrait orientation in the Gallery app itself; they just get rotated when I try to share them.
I can fix the rotation by cropping a tiny sliver off the photos in the Gallery app; but doing so reduces the photo down to roughly VGA resolution.
Running Infused 2.3.3. Auto-rotation is enabled in the phone's settings.

i have noticed this. it bugs me. i have yet to find a solution even rotating it on the phone wont work it self.
Maybe it's just me and it's a my phone issue but ever since i have started to root and build for my phone and download news roms i've noticed that the regular gallery does't have the animated thumnails anymore. I know it's minor but i just wanted to know if any of you have noticed that also and or know how to get it back animated.
I don't recall stock Gallery ever having moving thumbnails. I'm not saying it didn't but the only place I've seen that is in the Video Player on Touchwiz and Touchwiz roms. My thumbnails for recorded video and video on my sd card animate just fine. That doesn't happen in my Gallery app but it works fine in my Video Player. I'm currently on CleanRom 2.1
yea that's what i was saying my gallery and everything else works fine it's just it doesn't animate the thumbnails of videos like it used to, maybe i'm just overlooking something but if you any review of this phone completely stock you'll see what I'm talking about just in case you don't remember it.
Anyone notice this? I'm not sure why the IG version of android had the high res photo option, if I upload pictures that have letters on them it has to be checked off if I upload regular pictures like a photo of a car it has to be checked or it will look blurry. Anyone else want to try this?
Hello guys, I'm currently running CM12.1 stock on my Xperia Z2 (D6503). My issue is whenever I try to pick an image off Google search or basically anything other than the stock wallpapers, the wallpaper seems to be really zoomed in and not showing the entire picture. The picture isn't distorted, if anything it's in great quality. I have tried changing the pic's resolution and image resizers but it all doesn't work. Any solution is appreciated.
