Give me a minute ill test it on cm6 and let you know

I dont know if this is from htc but somebody got it from the incredible and its the gallery and it works perfectly on the evo

That one didnt work either. I would love to go back to the htc gallery also, hate the the 3d in cm

bump...anyone gotten this to work on CM6? I hate how slow 3d gallery is.

any HTC app is going revolve around sense and (more than likely) not going to work on a sense-less ROM. Trust me, I'd LOVE for that apk to work, because i LOATHE the 3dGallery.
I highly doubt cyanogen would even think about messing with trying to get it to work. if i knew more about sense and its framework, id dive right in and try to get it to work, but i know nothing about it.
theres another thread about this same thing here

Wow, that 3d gallery works really well on the evo, installed it just fine on stock 2.2 The only one i have found so far that is smooth, and retains the 8mp camera functionality. Where did you find this from? I notice the icon is different too from the stock android and HTC gallery. Can you get the gallery from 2.2 to work this well on the evo?

Bumping this because I also can't stand the 3D gallery and was wondering if anyone had any luck getting HTC Gallery to work on CM6.
Or are there any other galleries? Can't seem to find anything in the Market. Someone should kick Google in the google for coming up with the crapass 3D gallery with blurry previews and slow performance

I use the one that is posted in here..I found it somewhere else but I have to go in with root explorer and delete the gallery3D.apk then flash the above .apk in a zip through recovery.
It at least loads faster and loads all my pics everytime..

Have you got a flashable zip of the gallery you're speaking of? I only see it in the thead as an apk. Thanks!

You can only flash this with clockwork because I dont know how to sign .zips.

Thanks sir. That gallery worked for me but looks and acts just like the 3D gallery on my phone (only difference I notice is that the icon is different and it doesn't work with the camera) so I went back to the CM6 default 3d gallery.
Still wish there was a simple 2D Sense-like gallery for CM6

Good news - thanks to androidforums I was able to find the old AOSP 2D gallery. I've installed it and it works great on my 2.2 evo with CM6.
The only thing that doesn't seem to work is the little thumbnail in the camera. When you touch it, nothing happens (after uninstalling the 3d gallery that is).
But, you can press menu on the camera then click gallery it works!
Anyone who wants a 2D gallery on CM6 I highly recommend this. Multi-touch pinch to zoom works on photos as well as swipe for next.

[APP REQUEST] Help getting HTC Album to work in cm6

So I've been using the 3d gallery or whatever comes with Froyo its Gallery3d.apk
Anyway it totally sucks. It loads slow and half the time it doesn't even load all the photos. Personally I don't care about the lame 3d effects etc. I just want to load my pictures and show them off..
Now the HTC Album loads fast and shows all pics instantly.
Has anyone got the htcalbum.apk(from the offical htc 2.2) to work with cm6? I have tried flashing the .apk in a zip but it won't show up in programs.
Anyone have any ideas on getting this to work?

I think we'd have more luck trying to get droid 2.1 gallery to work

Quote of the year. I couldnt agree more. I know HTCAlbum is sense-integrated, so idk how much luck any dev would have getting it on a senseless ROM... but ANYTHING other than the 3DGallery would be faster i would think.

i bet if you made an update.zip and pulled a few framework files from /system/framework from a sense rom you might be able to get it to work. might want to check to see if it uses any htc libs too.

3d gallery

Hello I updated to the official froyo but they left out the 3d gallery with pinch to peek, is there a way to get it? I'm not rooted should I be? I don't even know where to start help much appreciated

Honestly, I dont know how, or if, you can get it without rooting. My advice would be to root. I can understand being apprehensive if you've never done it before, but what you gain is entirely worth it. Especially wireless tether. Follow any guide, most are basic, and you should be good to go. You can get the 3D gallery two ways. 1) push it to your phone via ADB. If you google "3D gallery" the APK is easy to find. Or 2) Flash the latest Fresh Rom, go into Rom Manager and download the "Vanilla Lock+Vanilla Apps-World Clock". This will give you the Vanilla Android music app, clock, and 3d Gallery.
Is there a way to exclude certain pictures from the gallery? All of my album art shows up and clutters it
If he updated to official froyo, he wouldn't be able to root right now, right?
The gallery usually shows up with options to look at just camera shots or certain folders, it doesn't do that for you?

[Q] What is the best photo gallery app ?

Hi. As you know 3D gallery app is very slow. I couldn't find a basic gallery app (like HTC gallery app) Any suggestion?
Still waiting
If you want something basic you can try Large Image Viewer. But it doesn't offer file operations (delete etc). Nice, clean and simple UI!

Thanks for the answer but it force close a lot.
I found B&B gallery app. It looks ok but didn't satisfied. So still waiting
i am too looking for the same. i am back to sense rom just because of this particular reason, otherwise i am a great fan of opendesire
I just use 3D gallery but dont find it slow at all, are you using a custom rom, if so which one ?

i dont think the 3D gallery app is slow either, ive never used opendesire tho .....
I've used OpenDesire and personally didnt find the 3d gallery to be all that slow :S
3D gallery isn't lightning fast, but that's hardy its main problem...
Anyway, as above, I'm back from defrost to htc sense because of this and camera (other stuff to o) but on aosp I was trying to use justpictures. It's actually quite functional, if you can stand the fact that it's dead slow.

htc picture viewer

Does anyone know or have any information regarding replacing our cooliris gallery viewer with the stock picture viewer from the htc phones (including the desire Z)? Its just so much snappier and overall better performing. thanks, veritasaequita
i just extracted it from the modaco rom and tried to install the apk for it and it failed....hmmmm
it might(most likely) be dependent on senseUI

yeah i tried that one before and didnt work.. but theres a gallery app called "B&B Gallery", its not fancy or anything but it is much quicker than the stock gallery. i used to use it before and it would get the job done

[Q] Stock Gallery

I posted this on the CM Slide forum but I haven't gotten any actual help yet, I'm hoping someone here on XDA will be a bit more helpful
CM6/7 comes with the Gallery3D apk, which looks nice. However, it's slow. I hate opening it and sitting there waiting for the pictures to load, especially in folders with a lot of pictures.
It's even more annoying when I am trying to send an email/picture message and I have to sit there for a couple minutes waiting for them to load.
Does anyone have the stock gallery apk, or a good alternative? Or ANYTHING which will help whatsoever?
Thanks
So I don't know what this is, but the thread looked similar.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775897&highlight=gallery
You could try that out, the file on mediafire there is Gallery.apk, but I haven't tried it out.
Thanks for the quick response
I actually did try doing that, it worked but it was very..unorganized, I guess. And no way to change it around to make it better
I'm currently using JustPictures...hoping to pull the stock gallery from my girlfriends Slide when I see her..but I was hoping maybe someone had a nandroid backup or something.
I looked in the stock Eclair ROM and it' says HTCAlbum.apk. I'll upload the .apk for ya, I hope it helps you out somewhat.
EDIT: AlbumStuffs.zip has 3 files, the .odex and 2 lib files. Lemme know if that helps out Now I'm interested in if this works.
Thank you!
I'm going to try it now, I'll edit this when I find out what happens.
*edit*
No good. I get Application Not Installed.
I'm currently trying to push to /system/app via ADB, hoping that helps.
Any ideas on what might work if this doesn't?
Thanks!
**edit 2**
ADB install gives me Install Failed Missing Shared Library, I'm guessing there's another file that goes with the HTCAlbum.apk, maybe an odex or whatever?
Would you mind maybe doing a quick search for anything associated with it, and upload if you find it? I'd appreciate it
Thanks again.
i would like the samething. i hate that the 3d gallery lags!!
well, I've tried pushing those files, fresh installs, and a few other unorthodox methods... can't seem to get the 2D gallery working from the HTC based Album. I'm not a dev at all, so I really can't do much else to help out here. Maybe a dev will glance over here while they are bored and looking for a project or something? Good Luck though, hope you are able to get this working.
You can't pull the stock gallery for several reasons. One, it's odexed, and our rom isn't, which might be why you get app not installed. Frameworks aren't compatible. Even if it was deodexed, it wouldn't work, since stock htc apps are tightly tied into com.htc.resources.apk and other htc and tmobile framework apk files which cm roms don't have. It is probably impossible to run htc system apps as standalone apps on other roms. Personally I don't have gallery issues running cm7, but if you do you will have to find a market alternative.
You can also select a tool like astro when attaching images when it asks you what you want to use to select an image, if you are having issues with the stock gallery from google.
