Gallery Picasa - General Questions and Answers

Please help me get rid of the Picasa images from my gallery... I've tried all the tutorials out there and then some and still want to use the stock gallery app, so any help would be appreciated.

I ended up just using QuickPic, but if anyone can help, I'd like to use the stock app.

If Picasa images are in some folder, then put a blank file having name ".nomedia" in that folder (this file does not have extension). Not a single image/video from that folder and its subfolders will be shown in stock gallery. Create that file using root explorer. If you cannot create, then I will upload it for you tomorrow when I use computer. XDA Mobile app doesn't allow to upload files.

using CWM........Busybox commands........ No I use my hands

Actually, I can't figure out where they are. I've deleted days and cache for gallery and media storage, and they haven't gone away... Do you think they could be cached somehow I'm the Google framework files?

[Q] how do i backup apps as .apk files?

i would like to backup apps to a .APK file so i can put them on the computer .....TB (titanium backup) doesn't seem to put them in just a .apk so how can i do this?
id like to be able to use "adb install _______.apk" to put apps on a phone all at once without needing to buy TB as i don't have the money....
I just found an app that does that this morning. It's called apkExtractor by Kim Heeseok. I'd post a link, but you need 8 total posts before you can do that.

*sigh* can you put the link in a PM? or just put spaces between the parts so it doesn't register as a link, i can put it back together when i get it.
Here (delete brackets around https and .com):
[h][t][t][p]://play.google[.com]/store/apps/details?id=net.sylark.apkextractor
Edit: Just as a note, inside of the app, a long press of the app you want to export will give you the option to export it as an apk. It will be exported to "/sdcard/AppManager/yourappname.apk".

Titanium Backup
you can download it
Titanium Backup DOES back up apks, they just have them compressed...IIRC, you'll see the appname.apk.gz
You could also use something like ES File Explorer, which has a backup function. Other apps have similar capabilities.

I use the computer side of the 'wan dou jia' export! It is one of China's software.
i was also looking for the same.So i won't need to download the apps everytime after flashing or any other reason.
thanks mate
I gave up and use titanium backup pro

Been using it since Froyo on my Galaxy S.
A short video tutorial on how to backup apps as apk files.
I am using astro file to backup my apks. It is quite user friendly imo.

Confused about this notification...please help

Ok, yes I've searched. Yes files are all mp3. Yes I'm confused...ok so I usually download mixtapes off this website datpiff.com on a computer and then transfer songs via USB cable to my phone through windows media player, everything works great, bada Bing bada boom. Now today due to lack of a computer to use I decided to download a mixtape using the browser on my phone as I would do on a computer, extract files using root browser, and push them into my music app. Now the problem I'm facing is the music player is telling me it does not support that type of audio file. Km stumped, confused, bewildered...if anyone can give me a point In the right direction or fill me in on how to get the files to work simply from my phone id greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Much appreciated.

Are they in a zipped archive that needs to be unzipped? Possibly try to download the app called rescan Media In case they were moved after the download

Well when I first download yes they are in a zipped file but I extract them to a different folder. Doesn't that mean they're unzipped then?

Is it these system apks from XXUAMDE very different from newer XXUAME2 firmware ?
If not, please, tell me wich system apk is stock internet browser. I have problem with it (after rooting i cannot close windows inside browser if more winows opened, one window too. Say "internet error"), and i suppose must reinstall this system apk.
Thanks forwarding.
Best regards

Samsung My Files apk

Does anyone have a working My Files apk they could share? I never use the Samsung file manager, but recently wanted to go back to s-note (mainly use repligo) because the pen works better for it. Sadly, Samsung makes you use their file manager instead of a third party like ES, and I deleted My Files already.
I've tried a few other My Files apks from other roms, but never got them working.
Also, s-note does not sync with dropbox, right? I only see Gdrive for cloud storage.

I do appreciate your help. However, I already have found some random My Files apks. The problem is I've had issues getting them to work. I can't simply install from a file manager, or even push to system/app and change permissions. Just don't want to dirty flash...
