How to copy to clipboard from the Gallery App - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've just switched from iPhone and I must say the android world is a little less intuitive. I cannot find a way to select the image and copy to the clipboard to paste in the email application. Am I missing an option to enable it somehow.
much appreciated. Its the AT&T galaxy s6 edge.
sorry for such a question.

Welcome to the android world.
Android is more intuitive than ios though there is a learning curve to it.
Coming back to your issue, if you want to attach 1 picture then you can click that picture and then click share and select your email app. If you want to send more than 1 picture then long press the picture in the current folder and it will have a checkbox, select all pictures you want then again click share and select your email app. Sharing is one if the biggest feature of Android. You can share information very easily between various apps. Enjoy.

Hemant, Agreed that the sharing is an option, however if I have already composed an email and just want to paste an image form the gallery, there is no option to "Copy to clipboard". That is a big miss. in iOS that just works naturally. Is there a workaround besides sharing.?

A friend showed that he gets the copy menu when he presses the options menu button on the left however on the S6 it beings up the apps list vs the menu that shows copy to keyboard option. Is there a way to add the copy from picture to clipboard?

Just press the "attach" button, that's what its there for. To attach things. A little less "intuitive" means not meant for old people and children lol

You can open up multi-window both the gallery app and email app then simply drag the image from one window to the other.

thanks for the tip. I'll try this out. but I can't believe there isin't a copy to clipboard or a simple copy highlight like the iOS. I'm not trying to point out but there are lots of these nifty things that lack when move to the android platform. I finally landed up with a good email client called Nine. However nine does not do anything besides exchange.
Copy to clipbaord is a big miss. On positives, I do like the wireless charging and the curved display and the integration of whatsapp calling as a regular call vs iOs.

Which email app do you use? Not all apps support copy/paste of images (since this is purely a Samsung Touchwiz function and not an Android one).
Try to force copy/paste: with both multi-windows open click on the middle white circle which opens up the multi-windows options. The second option from left is a force copy/paste (the icon looks like 2 windows, a black one in front of a white one, then a black finger icon at the front). Click that icon then click and drag a image.
See if that works.

Sorry for the late reply. I'm using Nine email. I'll try out the force copy/paste.

I just moved from a moto x gen 1 with 5.0 to galaxy s6 5.1.1.
Copy and pasting images on the internet used to be so easy, now I can not do it to save my life. What am I doing wrong?

Still searching for a way to copy and paste images. There must be a way. Teach me, I'm a sponge.

I just came across this post while looking something else up. However, I know it’s over a year old and it’s actually easy to accomplish this so I am assuming you figured it out. But just in case, if you still want to know how to do this let me know and I will send you back a couple of ways to accomplish this. Also, IMO, Android is way more intuitive. I am typing this on an iPad and using the clipboard (not necessarily adding pics to an email (they’re actually the same on Android or iOS), but using the actual clipboard) on this device I actually think is a pain. I find it much easier on Android. So if you still need help, please post back. I’m sorry I didn’t notice this sooner. Take care.

it is not possible to copy images to the clipboard using a Samsung phone. This seems like a huge miss because it is. i used to hate Apple, but this one feature is enough... never again will i purchase an android device.

Shortcut to Send Pics to Photobucket

I recently found the photobucket mobile http://m.photobucket.com and thought it would be nice to have a shortcut or an app that makes it quick to send a photo to my account.
So far I created a shortcut on start menu that leads to ":MSINBOX -service "Gmail" -to "myaccountaddress" -subject "New Pictures"". I would like to find the right parameters to lead to "Menu,Insert,Picture". So it takes me straight to choosing my photos. Is this possible with a command line? Or do I need something like mortscript to get to that point?
EDIT:I tried these commmands so far plus some others(just added to end of above): -insert; -attach; -picture
Any help would be appreciated. I did search (which is how I got to this point), but couln't find what I needed. THANKS in advance. I will share what I come up, as I would like to also link to a photobucket icon to make it look like an app.
I see that there is an uploading app for Verizon and some other carriers. This is not what I'm interested in. I dont use data, and dont want to pay an extra 2.99 a month for the uploading service. I would like to either select my shortcut and select photos, or somehow add send to...photobucket to the default Pictures & Videos app(pimg.exe).

Text Messenger - The Text Message Away Message

Hey all, I'm new here but was looking for an outlet to announce applications. I have just finished up my first Android App and was hoping for some reviews/comments/suggestions. Criticism Encouraged!
Text Messenger is a simple away message application for your Android phone. There is a full version for $1, and a DEMO version (where you cannot change the default away message) for FREE.
Give it a try, then give it a Buy!
EDIT: updated barcodes to go directly to Android Market, rather than through AndroidZoom.
Just checking in to see if anyone had a chance to review my app, and had any comments/suggestions/criticism?
To make it easier to find I will post some barcodes (DEMO and Full Version) for the apps.
Thanks.

I'll check out the demo version real quick and tell you my thoughts =P

Don't mean to be mean, but don't people take a non-reply to mean that the recipient is away/busy ?
I can't test this because I use gvoice for texting.

That's alright, I know this isn't for everyone. With the current state of texting, especially with the younger crowd, I have seen many instances where people say "What the [email protected]#$ why aren't they texting me back!!!"...I guess this is more for those types.
Also, I find myself in situations where I really should not be reading/responding to text messages but I end up giving in knowing there is a message. With Text Messenger you can set your Away Message and automatically put your phone on silent at the same time. So when I am driving, in class, or anywhere else where I shouldn't be answering a text I do not feel the urge.
Pretty cool - few suggestions
Hey, just checked out the demo version of the app. I'm a brand new Android user. Coming from windows mobile I needed an app like this. Just a few thoughts as to what would make this an even better app. These are just suggestions and ways that I would like to be able to use the app.
1. Allow for profiles to be set up. Such as during certain user defined times, the app automatically sets an away status.
2. Allow for away statuses to be enable for specific contacts, like a black/white list.
3. Set up a quick reply list so I can select from some predefined messages such as "Call if it's an emergency", "In class"...
Keep us updated...
Nice app by the way

Anyways, I attached the apk for the DEMO Version of the app. In this version you can not change the away message, but if you purchase the full version for $1 USD the away message is completely customizable.
Thank you for the interest in my app!

Thanks for trying out my app.
I plan on adding a customizable list of away messages, so you can easily set "In class" etc...look for that update soon.
The Black List & Scheduled away messages are a great idea, although the initial decision creating the app was to make it as simple and quick as possible. Adding these features would be great, but also add more complication. I suppose there is no harm in adding these as optional features though, since if people wanted a quick easy solution they could simply not enable them.
I will keep you updated on the changes coming, look for your #1 to definitely be added with the possibility of #2 and/or #3.
Thanks again for trying my app, and leaving feedback!
P.S. Anyone else that has tried the app it would be great if you could rate it on the Android Market. Only a few people have rated it/commented, and I know many more have given it a try.
I like the demo app. I would like to try the full version but don't see it on the Market. I tried the posted barcode and it never loads the link in the browser.
Thanks,
I downloaded the donation version to be able to say what I want. What an awesome application. I can easily say one of my top 5 most useful. I set it when I'm driving, in a meeting, flying (in the air force) or when I'm busy with a million other things. Here is my list of features I would love to see, forgive me for any duplicates from any other post;
1. A widget! One that when pressed will turn on the auto reply AND have a drop down list of saves/pre-made responses.
2. Option to turn off notification bar icon, I hate that big green booger on my minimalist bar.
3. Option to save messages for future use through a quicky list
4. Option to have messages be contact specific (I would love to see this and would justify a higher price as it would make this an essential app, on par with SetCPU!)
5. Lastly, some notification of auto reply being sent, I'm currently not seeing one on my phone.

I'm using Android 1.6 on my HTC Tattoo. I scanned the barcode but I think i cant find it because my resolution (240 x 320) might not be supported.
I would like to buy the app, but i live in Belgium, and payd apps can not be bought from the market.
I just tried to install the app using the apk-file, but it doesn't works. Can u make a version for 1.6 plz, i really like it.

Thanks for giving it a try. If you press the menu button when in the DEMO Version there should be an option for "More Apps" this will bring you to the Android Market where you can see the FULL Version. I also attached a different barcode, this should link directly to the market rather than through AndroidZoom...let me know if that works for you? Otherwise just search "Robott Creations" or "Text Messenger" on the Android Market.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have heard more than once the need for customizable preset messages & option to turn off the notification "booger". I look to add those features this week. The rest of the suggestions I also agree with, and will hopefully work them in. I was looking to keep the app extremely simple, but the feedback so far has made it sound like the app is "too simple".

I am not too familiar with the Belgium Android Community, but it sounded like you said you are unable to buy any apps? If so, I do not know what I can do about that. But I will look into comparability for Android 1.6.
Thanks everyone, the feedback I have been getting has been excellent. I look to add some of these features shortly and supply you with exactly what you are looking for.
Version 1.5 Released
I read all the suggestions, and am trying to get them in ASAP.
Here are some features to hold you over until the next Update.
New to Version 1.5
------------------
* Custom preset Away Messages
- Easy interaction via Context Menu
* Enable/Disable Notifications
* Text Forwarding (Currently only supports other Phone #s)
* Minor Cosmetic Fixes
More Updates Coming Soon!
I hope the Android 1.6 support will be there soon. Such a lovely app ...

Both depend on the support of the project. Currently I have been hearing good feedback, but the number of downloads does not assure me it would be worth the time of creating an Android 1.6 version and/or porting to Windows Mobile.
I am currently working towards Version 2.0, and after that I will investigate porting and 1.6 support.
Thank you both for showing interest.
Any way of choosing which Apps this works with, as just had it in a weird loop on my facebook status. As I have fb notifacations sent to my mobile via texts, its put all away messages on my facebook, then as I had a new post, got sent a new text, which then triggered another away message...... Turned it off for now, but really good and usefull app, if you can have it only work with chosen apps. Like Handcent only.

[App] Minimal notepad with Dropbox sync - need testers

Hi!
I've just published my first app on the market - it's called Epistle.
It's a very simple text editor that can sync your notes with Dropbox; I will add folder support and note search soon.
Since all I've got is an old HTC G2 I'd appreciate if someone could help me test it (especially the synchronization mechanism).
You can find the app here: kooklab.com
Thanks.
Looks nice. Love the interface. However I am getting an FC whenever i hit "Sync". Account linked, I turned off all the automatic syncs, have reinstalled. I don't see any activity in my dropbox. Have attached logcat.
The only thing I would change is the note title field. I appreciate how other notepads use a bit of the first note line as the title.
You need to make a donate version, btw. I have been jonesing for a PlainText-alike and would happily pay for one!
Hi!

There is a stupid bug that prevents the app to perform the very first synchronization.
I'll push an update soon.

Hi! I like your app, but there is one thing I don't like. You should be able to give an option name to the folder it creates in dropbox. I'd rather have a folder named "Notes" than "Epistle", no offense to your namechoice.
This app is awesome!
I've now a Todo-list on my desktop and phone, synced!
Good work. I really like the idea.
Some comments:
1. I agree regarding the aforementioned opinion on the titling of notes. If no personal title is entered, the note should display the first line of the note in the overview list.
2. When you create a new note, the title is highlited and can be entered. However, as soon as the orientation of the phone changes (e.g. to landscape) the cursor is in the beginning of the text field and the title of the note cannot be changed. The same goes for the use of a hardware keyboard. When I flip my Desire Z open to use the hardware keyboard the same thing happens.
3. Deleting notes: The app should refresh by taking the latest changes into account. If I remove the note on the phone it should disappear from Dropbox. If I delete a file from dropbox, it should delete the note in the app.
4. Discarding notes. It should be possible to get back to the list view without saving a note. It's a good idea to have the note saved automatically when you press back. But you might provide a "discard note" option when you press "menu" while editing a note.
Regards,
Becksman

In landscape you should still be able to hide the virtual keyboard (with the back button) and double tap on the title to edit it.

If you delete a file from the phone everything works as expected; the other way around at the moment cannot be implemented - with the current API there is no way to tell if a file has been deleted from dropbox.

You're right. I tried that earlier and somehow it didn't work. I'd still prefer the cursor not to jump out of the title if I switch the orientation or open the hardware keyboard.

For me it's not working either way round. I "removed" 2 notes in the App and in my Dropbox they still appear. When I start the App they however don't show up anymore. I tried hitting "Sync", which resulted in a FC. However I just tried it again - created a new note, synced it and removed it again. This time it somehow worked.

I'll soon push another update on the market that should resolve most of the sync problems.
Would sorting by modification time or search be possible? The UI is perfection, but with many, many notes i get confused while navigating
Please ignore gregory's comment on the market. Unix line endings ftw.
Hey, i downloaded this yesterday! I'll provide any help needed!
By the way, love the latin root for the name.
It looks really pretty. The only reason I'm not going to give it a try is that Simplenote sync is currently a requirement for me.
But your attention to aesthetics pleases me
Thanks, thanks a lot for this app. Working great on my HERO, and finally I can sync my notes between my phone and my Linux desktop!
I don't mind the folder name or even the reverse sync issue, but I've got a few ideas on improving this. For example, you should stick to a notes format (like TiddyWiki) and give us ability to remark (bold) text, create check-able lists of items inside a note.... with transparent formatting (for example, *text* should bold, []item1 []item2 should create a check-able list, !subtitle for that exactly that and so on...). I think it should not be very difficult to implement and it could lead to, perhaps, a web app complement.
This app has tons of potential uses and improves. Thanks again.
Ever since I got my Samsung Captivate I've been using its built in memo pad for months. The fact that I couldn't export my notes was kind of a bummer. Now with your simple app, taking notes has never been simpler.
I'll try to report bugs when I see them. Thanks.
Been looking for something like this for ages, thank you.
Yesterday it worked fine, but today I'm getting FCs every time I open it on my Hero.
I'm about to test this in the Nook Color.. Thought the title "Drop-Notes" might be best appropriate for its key function :- )
All the minimal features are AWESOME thus far!
I've been using AK Notepad for the past few months.
I DON'T LIKE that it requires their webapp at catch.com to sync.
I REALLY LIKE that yours is very simple.
The only feature that I liked in AK Notepad, that I would like for you to implement would be #hashtags. This would make categorizing notes much simpler on both ends of the sync.
Along with the hashtags, a simple filtering system would be great!
And perhaps a customizable widget, that displays ONLY a set hashtag?!
Great job!
I'll be the first to donate/buy when you choose that route.
I can't link my dropbox account. the link button does nothing for me. It lets me enter my email and password, but thats it.

Application Request - Private Photo Management

I've been an iOS user for a long time, and am just now starting my switch to Android. Starting with a new Nexus 7 LTE. Anyway, one of the apps that I need to replace is called Photo Manager Pro. I'd link to it, but since I'm new, no go. I've found several apps in the play store, which are close, but not all the features I'm looking for. Specifically:
-Private and Public albums
-Hide thumbnails on folders of private albums
-Transfer via FTP/HTTP (Start a web/ftp server in the app to transfer directly to the app)
-Secure storage of photos (Encrypted within the app, not stored as individual files on the device)
-Backup/Restore options
I'll keep looking, but so far, no luck. Any pointers would be appreciated.
Hello, welcome to XDA!
I use the app called QuickPic.
With it you can hide images and viceos and set a password to see then.
It's a simple but nice APK.

Thanks for the welcome! I'll check it out, haven't run across that app yet in my searching. So far, this appears to be my biggest grip with Android...seems harder to find the right app, for whatever reason.

But if you can't find it just tell me and I'll upload it here to you.

[APP][TASKER] MyNotes v1.0

MyNotes​
Post #1: App introduction, download link, credits, screenshots attached.
Post #2: FAQ / other info.
Hello!
I've spent last days in making an app for taking notes. Initially, I wanted to make a shopping list, but then I decided to make an app which allow me to take notes because there are moments when I need to take a quick note. I can't upload it to Google Play because I don't have my own money ( and I'm almost 21 already... ).
I'm still a Tasker newbie
FEATURES:
☆ Possibility to save the current text from text field to a .txt file in a folder named MyNotes, along with the date and the clock when the text was saved. You can save text to same .txt file as much as you want.
☆ Enable a shake option to launch MyNotes.
☆ Enable a persistent notification, which after is touched will run MyNotes.
☆ No ads
That's all the features. I've wanted to add a color picker too for changing the theme, but it went troublesome for me and also then I didn't think themes are that useful for an app like this.

NOTE: This app was created on my phone, a Samsung Galaxy J5, with a 5.0", 720x1280 resolution screen. It might look weird on other resolutions.
FAQ / other info
1. Who are you?
I'm Robert (Force @xda). I've created this app using Tasker because there are moments when i need to write a quick note and read it later. I'm sure that there are apps much better than this, but i wanted one made with Tasker. I'm addicted to Tasker, but i still noob
2) Why are required network permissions?
Tasker added the permissions automatically according to app actions/features. I've added a button named "XDA thread" which open the xda thread. The button purpose is for writing bugs/reviews/suggestions. There is also a "SHARE" button to contact me through email.
I can remove these 2 buttons if you are concerned. I can also share the xml project.
3) Long press the buttons to see what it does.
4) I would like to know your review, your suggestions and also let me know if you found any bug.
5) The .txt file get saved in the folder named MyNotes in your phone internal memory (most likely /sdcard/ or /sdcard0/).
6. The "X" icon or phone back button minimize the app, so it saves the current text in textfield.
I'm waiting your opinion / review / suggestion
Thank you!
May I have your project file?

Sure. I've attached it to this post. It isn't that clean, for example the main scene is called SHOPPING because initially I wanted to make a shopping list. I didn't rename since I've exported it as app.
Let me know if you have any questions regarding the project file, or if you think I can make "the code" cleaner.
Also, if you wanna make your app or something and wanna share it, I would like to give credits to me if you are using scene, only if you mind. because I've spent few days working on
Please let me know your opinion about this app, good or bad review doesn't matter, but I want an honest review
Thank you!

I own a Samsung Note 3 so I am asking if could be possible to use the S pen with this project...
It seems nice but you can improve your design

It seems that is possible. Check that link. What kind of trigger you want?
By the way, LMT launcher helps in launching apps faster too.

Thank you for your reply!
At begin it looked even worse I think I'll try to design it with GIMP maybe.
Thanks.. but as you can imagine I am really noob with tasker so also with this app I really don't know where to begin to use S pen with your project... what I would like is the features to open your project when spen is removed and use the pen to write inside your notes...
Really difficult for you?

As far as I can see on internet, you need a plugin to do that. It can't be done alone with Tasker.
This is what you need: Note Buddy (S Pen Helper) . It does what you're looking for, and you don't have to use it with Tasker.
Please check it.
