[Q] Cant see Picasa Web Albums in Gallery CM10.1 P3113 - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
Having some trouble with the gallery on my Galaxy Tab 2.0 7inch after clean flashing the latest CM10.1 nightly.
I can't see the Picasa web albums in my Google Gallery App. Google + is working fine and Instant Upload and Photo sync are turned on. Instant upload notifies my and photos i take appear in my web albums and the G+ app.
Here is what got me to here
1) Format Cache, Data, System, Davlik Wipe
2) Install 2013.01.23 CM10.1 Nightly
3) Flash Gapps 2012.12.12
4) Install G+
5) Discovered No Picasa in Gallery
6) Went to Setup/Apps/All Apps/Gallery Deleted Data from Gallery App
7) Tested To see if Instant Upload was working (its working, albums are just missing from the app)
8) Deleted my Google Account and Re-added it
nothing has worked. Any one dealt with something like this or have suggestions?
EDIT
Okay I'm answering my own question... but the answer raises a new question
I just realized that GAPPS installs the Gallery2.apk and not GalleryGoogle.apk which explains the lack of Picasa. I tried manually installing the Google version, the gallery works but the camera crashes (i'm guessing due to Photosphere, though this method worked on 4.1.x roms) .... is there a way to get my picasa functionality back and keep a working camera?

Try flashing these Gapps over CM10.1 and 20121212 Gapps - - > http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-picasa-20121011-signed.zip

Thanks
Hey thanks man. Flashing the Picasa Gallery and GAPPS ripped for JB4.1.x did the trick. The loss of the 4.2 gallery/camera integration is no big deal.
I'm curious about the warnings from the Rom developers not to mismatch GAPPS and Rom versions. Are there any potential adverse effects to this procedure?
ie
1) Flash 4.2 Rom
2) Flash 4.2 GAPPS
3) Overflash Flash 4.1 GAPPS with Google Picasa Gallery

I too am facing this picasa problem and want to get it back. Can i flash the below gapps directly ? Do i need to do reset or data wipe ?
Also i face the same problem with Facebook. Stock ICS was showing up facebook albums but after CM10.1 it wont. IS there a facebook synchronizer app ?

ICS 4.0.3 facebook upload problem

HI!
I can't upload photos from my sd card to my facebook account. Uploding process start, but the end there is an upload error.
At first time I add a facebook account on I9023, the first photo posting is success, but the next photo upload will be unsuccess.
Has anyone the same problem? It is a 4.0.3 "feature"?
hey there,
what rom are you using?
i'm with codename android 1.5.5 and it works great, it was also working in 1.4.0.
so definetly it's not an ICS\4.0.3 issue.
have you made sure you're always connectef to the internet?
i would also try to reinstall the app if you restoed it.
HI!
Recently i use the stock 4.0.4 ROM, but after first upload the problem is still remain. The photo uploading process is running, but the end there is an upload errror...
I have an activeted Exchange, Google, Facebook account..
As far as i remember,facebook no longer approves sync with android.
But i can.say for sure that some custom roms allows facebook sync

[Q] Gmail Sync Issues with Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 - 7" - P3113

I got the Galaxy tab a few days back - and everything was working fine - even updated it OTA - then all of a sudden gmail / google play stopped syncing altogether - everything else works absolutely fine - Its a wifi only GT P3113 model - not sure what to do or how to resolve this? I even rooted it and then installed a custom rom to check if the problem was with the stock rom or something - but the same thing is happening with even the custom rom - gmail / google play just wont work - wont even let me sign in - Any one else facing the same issues?
Oh and not sure if something of this sort might been posted earlier - i been looking and went through dozens of sites on google and here but couldnt find any solutions that work -

Try to sign in to gmail from a computer or from the browser of the tab to see if the password works
If not so may be you forgot the password or the account is hacked !!!
I think their is option as forget your password ? under sign in so try it
If password is working so try clear cash and dalvik and fix permissions in cwm and try sign in again also try clear cash of google play and gmail app from setting/apps or even try flashing gapps again if the rom is jb so use jb gapps and if ics so use ics gapps from www.teamhacksung.org

My account is fine - Account hasnt been hacked - I use my account every day and it works absolutely fine on all the other devices of mine - so that cant be the issue - Flashing the custom rom i had wiped / reset factory data and settings etc and had also wiped the dalvik cache etc - and just to be sure i did the whole thing again while flashing another custom rom - the problem continues to persist - Gapps is not the issue either - because i been flashing various roms and the problem continues - so has to be something else - Just not sure what it could be -

Try this:
Change the time zone in the settings to something else (US Central etc) and reboot.
See if it works. If it does , change it back to your own and check again.
I know it doesn't make sense but try it please.

How are you connected to Gmail via activesync? or the gamil app?
As in Jan 2013 Google are stopping Activesync access for new devices to a majority of their services.

Installed new CM 10...No Camera

I dont have ten posts so I have to post here:
I installed CM10-OpenSensation2-Pdroid last night. I went straight to that from Viper. There is no camera widget. I tried to access the camera from the lockscreen and it said "could not connect to camera".
Wha happen?!?
Did you flash gaaps? I run paranoid Android and have a camera, in fact it's the newest camera! You must flash 4.2 gaaps with these roms. If you did flash gaaps and still no camera, full wipe, reinstall, it should give camera. Although I don't run that Rom, I'm sure gaaps will give camera. Hope this helps. Best wishes

Try to re-download the rom, full wipe and reinstall all.
The gapps you need are the latest for android jb. You'll find them on goo.im.
Gapps also DON'T interfere with camera.
Did all of that, but wiped everything one last time and did it all again. Still no camera or Gapps (had to install Gmail and Maps) despite the fact I installed the file (gapps-jb-20121011).
Also, another minor problem: Though the ROM mostly runs smoothly, on a few screens here and there and on most notifications the text gets laggy and leaves a trail.
Gapps don't include apps like Gmail or Maps.
It includes the apps for your Google account and services.
OS2 is still in beta for me. You should try the Kang of bruce and manually replace Clock and Camera.
OS2 is still in its initial stage and I have seen so many users complaining about camera..
Try another ROM and see if you get camera..

Fixed it. Thanks

WORKING Lollipop Bookmark Sync Flashable

***I'm not sure if this is done properly, but it seemed right and felt natural, like childbirth.***
I have found that Google Bookmark sync is not included in the latest Gapps and that is because there is no official BookMarkSync for Lollipop.
But Behold! I have found a version that works in Lollipop so I made it flashable from recovery!
Just flash it after GApps and you will be able to accept it to sync when you start up your phone, or it can be done at any time on any Lollipop ROM. The reason I say Lollipop is because of the new folder structure. Just make sure to add the browser sync to your account sync settings and allow it access the first time you open your browser after this. You might also want to go back and check under accounts on the device if bookmark sync is actually synced.
You would still want to follow the normal flash procedure, wipe caches before, after, whatever your preference but I do it after flashing.
You may have to wipe your browser data after boot if you have already installed a rom and have been using it. I did not, wiping cache and dalvik cache seemed to be sufficient.
If this doesn't work for anyone please let me know, and let me know what errors or issues you get. I can try to fix it, but believe me, this dang thing took me forever to get right, so it should work. The folder structure threw me off as well as the permissions. But I finally got it right so I hope you enjoy. I know I missed having my Google Bookmarks.
I attached it as well as included a google drive link. ENJOY
Google Drive Link
for me it work perfectly on Captivate i897 LP5.1.0 OmniRom Lollipop.
Thank you :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
I have the Verizon G4 and the option to sync bookmarks is not present under the settings page where you specify to sync gmail, contacts, etc.
Can you make it work with marshmallow? I am getting "Sync is currently having problems. Will be back shortly."
