[Q] Clearing recent pictures list - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After moving pics to SD or adding new pics to SD, they are added to the recent photos in Facebook app when I select upload from album (Camera Roll) and also Sony's Album app. Is there a way to exclude them from the recent photos list?

SGSIII Gallery: Photo Album sort order

I use gallery to access my Google+ albums. SGS3 Gallery access and publish my google+ albums like the stock ICS gallery, but unfortunately, the sorting order for the google+ albums are by album creation date in ascending order (oldest first), instead of descending order (newest first).
I have 100s of albums, so I always have to scroll to the end to see my latest album. Is there a way to change that sort order?

[Q] Deleted Photos stock gallery app (on SD Card) come back to haunt me

I really like the way the Stock Android Gallery app handles my photo, rather than the Sony Album app. But recently I noticed that my phone has a number of photos that supposed to be deleted re-appeared in my Gallery app. Very strange.
I installed Google KitKat 4.4. Gallery and Camera app , installed google plus, thus the "photo app" came together as well. All photos save to SD card DCIM folder by default. I did make sure that cache cleared, thumbnail rebuild after each test below:
1. Delete a photo from Gallery App, it disappear from all photo viewing apps, including the Sony Album App.
2. Check ES Explorer, the photo supposedly deleted still in there.
Tried again, using the Google Plus photo app
1. Delete a photo from Google Plus Photo App; made sure empty the Bin as well. Check all photo viewing app, the photo has been removed.
2. Checked ES Explorer again, the photo deleted is still there!
Then I tried Sony Album App
1. Delete a photo from Sony Album App. All photo viewing apps have the photo removed
2. ES explorer: this time it removed the photo there as well!!
Is this some kind of feature that the google apps build to protect accidental deleted image? If so, how come the photos are still there after Bin was emptied? How to make sure the photos that I wanted to delete is genuinely deleted? (apart from using other apps)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It gives you the option when setting up the Phone to backup to Google so check your sync settings.
I didn't even turn on the photo auto backup. So there is nothing I can set there except from logging into google account.
As for the Gallery app, I can find any setting regarding deleting photos. There is not even a Bin folder in there.
Bump. Anyone can help?

[Q] Gallery as album instead of documents?

Some apps have the add photo or album button and it brings up the documents viewer like a tablet or so, and I'd like to not have that and just have it bring up a default app. Is this possible?

Blurred photos in Album

I've noticed that some old photos appear first in the album randomly even if I delete them. And also some photos are blurred. I'm using the Album app that was preinstalled when I bought the phone. Someone with the same problem and know how to fix this?
Had it before. If they are blurred duplicates of the photos you already have, chances are its the thumbnails. Just locate the Thumbnail Folder ( varies for devices ) and create a ".nomedia" file in there to exclude that portion from being scanned.
After which be sure to Clear your Album App Data in settings A quick restart after that should do the trick.
