One solution; QuickPic.

Goto settings>application>manage setting then find Gallery, thick it and clear data.

This doesn't seem to help.I already tried that.
Edit: I changed the theme, now the problem seems to be solved.

[Q] 3d gallery

i've found app at the market, which creates a shortcut of 3d gallery which se had hidden. Also it's possible to do it with launcher pro or whatever other launcher.
Works fine ,but when i'm trying to launch camera shortcut which is located at the top right corner of 3d gallery it crashes. Any ideas?
P.S. is it possible to install mediascape on x8?

Well, but if u download pic? then what?
Actually, it is updated automatically for me too. If I download a pic, it appears in the gallery without a re-scan.
This is a really cool app, it looks awsome... too bad that it takes a while to load, and that it doesnt support one finger zoom from X8 gallery app.

Can u upload apk of the version which u r using?
Maybe my gallery isn't updating because i've ticked that default app for viewing pictures is 3d gallery?

I simply lay down images on a flash card, I disconnect usb, I start 3d-galery from the menu, some seconds it think, and everything, the loaded images appear there, without phone reboot

Anyone on stock xxki3, please help!

Hi guys, I tried to use the Epic 4G Touch launcher on my GS2, since I heard that it was better than the TouchWiz that comes with the international version, but something got messed up and it reverted back to the old launcher, and now it just shows the "Applications" icon in the middle of the dock, and whenever I try to add something else, it just FC's. I have deleted the Epic 4G Touch's launcher, but it still continues to do this.
SO, would anyone running completely stock XXKI3 firmware please go into their "/system/app" directory and upload: "TouchWiz30Launcher.apk" and "TouchWiz30Launcher.odex"? I really appreciate it!
By the way, what is the function of the odex file?
THANK YOU!
Go to manage applications and select TWLauncher and force close it and clear data. Home key.

You sir, are a genius.
On another note though, why doesn't the E4GT launcher work on my phone? It runs much smoother than the original, but then I run into the problems I was having as described in the first post... :S
Did you delete the default TWlauncher .odex file before installing the epic one?

I renamed it.
And it still didn't work? That's odd, it worked for me after i rebooted the phone and I'm on KI3. I attached the new AT&T version of the launcher. It has a working search button and endless scrolling in the home screens. If you want to give it a try just unzip and drop the .lib file into system/lib (backup the one you have first) and the apk into system/app. This is the originating thread

Thank you for the information, but I honestly hate the new messaging icon on the AT&T launcher.
What reason could there be for the Epic launcher not working though? I really love how it's so smooth and more "polished" than the original.
Thank you so much, really appreciated!

The one I attached does not have the messaging apk, I took it out for that reason. Give it a try. I would download and use a different launcher while you install the new one just to be safe.

Thank you for the help, but once again, I just get an FC. I don't know what I'm doing wrong! :S
Could it be that when I rename the file, I still keep the extension? The stock tw launcher is laggy, and I honestly don't like it when I see the lag on such an amazing phone.
Anyone got any ideas?

Remove lockscreen wall?

How can i remove the lockscreen wallpaper? I can set from both gallery or xperia wallpapers (but the gallery ones aren't as crisp as the xperia ones), but can't remove it if I have a live wallpaper, for instance... Does anyone knows how to remove it?
Found it!
If you need, and have root: go to /data/data/com.sonyericsson.lockscreen.uxpnxt/ and delete the wallpaper.png file.

Unfortunately no solution if you're not rooted. Tried to remove it with adb. No success.
Code:
$ pwd

$ rm wallpaper.png

Yes, you're able to change it. But not remove it, once set.

Didn't work for me...that's why I had to do it the "hard" way, by deleting the PNG.
Solved The Same problem
I had the same problem of changing to default lock screen and i did a Settings Reset which solved it.
Goto Settings > Privacy > Settings Reset. After that the phone reboots and the only thing to bother is to correct the time.
Take care not to do the Factory Data Reset
Googled it

I know it's kinda off topic but can we change the lockscreen without a app like use a zip to flash as the go locker ,etc. are kinda slow...?

I'm digging up this old thread only to say that the last post with the suggestion of clearing the lock screen app actually solved my problem.
So there you go.

"Setting icon failed! Is your SD mounted?" when trying to set custom lockscreen icon

"Setting icon failed! Is your SD mounted?" when trying to set custom lockscreen icon
i'm trying to use the custom lockscreen icons found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690530) to replace the play music default icon on my 4-slot lockscreen within AOKP (latest nightly: 7/1/2012). every time i try to set ANY icon from this package, it tells me the error in the subject line of this thread, and i can't for the life of me find any solution online about this issue and how to fix it. can someone please make my night and tell me why i can't just make my lockscreen beautiful? thanks in advance!
I was getting that also. when I was prompted to select a program to select the icon, I would choose root explorer. when I chose gallery, I didn't get the error. don't know if it'll work for you, but it did for me

Custom Homescreen not selectable

I recently got the Reno 3 Pro. Great phone so far.
When I installed my favorite launcher, I found out, that there is no possibility to set/keep it as standard.
In app management>default app the content for Homescreen is missing ....
Got the latest ColorOS update.

Strange, I have the home screen option in default app settings as attached.
I would suggest install some other launcher and click home, it will ask you to choose which should be default as checkbox, choose your fav launcher and uninstall the other launcher.

Yes, I did. When I then click the home button it asks me whether I want to set the new launcher as standard launcher - so far ok. When I then click yes, then I get the screen with "standard home app" saying "no app"

Very strange,
Can you try installing QuickHomeSwitcher and see if it shows other launchers for you to select.

FYI: There are many home screen switcher apps available few are virus too thats why sharing link which I installed and tested.

Thank you, I tried the app, but whenever I open it, it's not going to open but switches immediately to the first screen (Homescreen) of the oppo Reno standard launcher.
What I do now is, I start my favorite launcher and it runs like a normal app. To keep it open, I always have to switch back to it in the recent app list. When I end/kill it, then of course I get the standard launcher Homescreen back.
Very strange for me too, I have been working with many smartphones yet, also rooting and flashing things forwards and backwards but not yet encountered a problem like this
Enclosed a picture of my given default app list where Homescreen is simply missing

i have the same problem but i remember when i received it i could choose the default app to open word excel and pdf files then i did the latest update which is PCRM00_11_A.29_6423cd33 and now i can choose the defaut for message, phone, browser, camera, photos, music and video that all
kernel 4.19.81
I wonder if the problem is not from the last update
