[Q] S6 Facebook Gallery - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way for the Gallery to show Facebook albums in the Gallery? The app is installed but the sync settings only show contact settings.
Thanks

Yeah Quickpic is really good. But I don't think it can show you virtual shots taken with the camera.

::sigh:: actually my GF's junk.
This is the way Android camera was designed, to give you a quick jump between camera and gallery. If you don't like it - there are plenty of replacement camera apps on the market, check them out.
You could move the pics and vids to another folder, and disable the folder in the gallery app (push menu button in gallery).
Or read this for more tips: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/hide-private-picture-folders-gallery-android/
your just using the wrong app -
Search for "audio manager" - it is a blue music sign with a orange one on the back,
go into this and you realise it is called hide it pro - download it,
simple to use and works perfectly

pretty sure those will show up elsewhere like in the gallery unless you hide the folder - put a period in the beggining of the name - example .xxxpics

Or put a file called .nomedia in the folder, it won't be scanned for media files by any apps.

I seriously doubt that, I have had 3 other Android devices and this is my first Sense Android and the first that does that thumbnail thing

He is quite correct, the stock Android camera-app does feature the small thumbnail picture for quick gallery access. I see it on my Nexus One right now.

+1 I think there might be serious Privacy issue with HTC Sensation
Pls post Pics asap or take Screen shot of said pictures and post ASAP
Better put them on XDA to check before sending to HTC incase its false alarm

dropbox

How do I get my camera uploads able to be viewed in the gallery or all my other images stored on dropbox?
Use ES File Explorer, add your Dropbox as a network drive, then you can browse the folder with the ES Gallery app (Maybe also the stock gallery app, I haven't checked because I don't use it)

Ya but when you first run the setup utility, HTC tells you that you can auto upload cam images and view them in the gallery. They definitely don't expect everyone to do that.

So I see where you can click Albums -> DropBox and I get the API access request which I accept, but then Gallery force closes. ARGH
Oh, I didn't know about that feature. Although not much of a feature, since I get to exactly the same stage as you before it force closes.
Does this work for anyone?
BUMP...........
You can enable the automatic upload in dropbox' app settings.

That doesn't answer the question at all....
It works properly for me. The Dropbox app automatically uploads my camera shots and video onto their severs. The HTC Gallery app lets me select my Dropbox folders under the Albums drop down menu. Once selected, I can browse and view whatever.

Difference between Gallery app and Photos app? Is it okay to remove Photos app?

After rooting my phone, I like to delete some system apps I never use. I was curious what the difference between the Photos app and Gallery app were? And if it was okay for me to delete the Photos app because I like the Gallery app more and would love to get rid of another app I would barely use.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Photos app only shows the "camera" photos, not all the other photos on your phone. Edit a photo with Snapseed? You won't find it in Photos.

Insertcoin sense 6 gallery help m7

Hi all,
I'm running Insertcoin 2.7 on my m7.
I can't figure out how to view cloud storage photos through the htc gallery app. Is this a limitation of the rom? I can even find a settings option in the gallery app, or any gallery related to online photos.
I'm looking to view photos from 'google photos' and my accounts are linked and syncing.
Thanks in advance

You can't do it with the stock gallery. Install Quickpic, and you can access them from a gallery, but not the stock one.
Damn i dont like quickpic. I try and its slow. Any other options?
