My Favourites album not working properly - Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My Favourites album is not working properly (MM6/EMUI4)
Would like to tag some photos as Favourite and then use My Favourites album as selection for wallpapers and PhotoWidget, but not possible, My Favourites album is not shown on the selection list at all?
In Gallery application My Favourites album is shown just fine... but how to use it? Seems rather useless now..
thanks,

you can always change your music app for temp fix

have you hidden the album from view? or make a new album with the pictures

My Favourites album is not manually created, it's a "system folder" that gets created when you Fav some photos in Gallery using the Heart symbol..
I don't think it is an actual album/folder, but rather just shortcuts to the photos you have liked.. and that's the way it should work, just tag favorite photos instead of making copies of them..
but Photo widget and wallpaper selections doesn't seem to support that feature, seems like a bug.

Clear cache of the gallery app and try

[REQ] Scrolling photo gallery widget

I am looking for the following that I haven't been able to find by searching:
-Widget with different sizes
-Widget will automatically slideshow from selected drawers at a set interval (with random as option)
-You can scroll through the photos by swiping, preferrably seamless (with the help of a launcher that allows scrollable widgets I guess) so you can scroll really quick
-Clicking a picture will bring you its source
Would this be possible (or is there such a widget already)?
I have not found anything like this but would love to have it.
Would like this also... thought i'd 'bump' the short thread.

Great idea.. Whoever decides to jump on board should test with one of the new 7 inch tablets as well.. Having extra screen estate means bigger thumbnails for Widgeez especially anything picture related.
Multi Picture Live Wallpaper does more or less what you want.
You can have an empty screen and cycle the background.
Obviously not a widget, but it comes close to what you want.
(can't yet add the link for you unfortunately)
I know exactly what you might be looking for...
I had a "Sony Xperia Arc LT15a" on gingerbread.. and it had a scrolling gallery widget where the pictures shuffled in folder order when you touch the widget and I cant find it anywhere. If anyone can find anything similar msg me please!

Its good but what I'm really looking for is simply an automatic slideshow version of the stock android photo gallery widget. I like the way it stacks the photos, shows them in high res and responds to flicking through them - I just wish it would animate automatically!
I need slide widget 'xperia style' too. Is it present?
Up!

Music Player lumps all songs together, no way to sort by album?

I can't find a way to organize songs by album on Samsung's (?) Music Player. Google's player ("Play Music") can do this no problem. Am I missing something?
EDIT: AT&T version
Not sure what version GS3 you have. The Music Player on my verizon version has tabs at the top for songs artist album playlists etc.
Try sorting by folder. I usually have each album in separate folders

It seems the problem is that launching the app through the widget displays less options than launching it through the app list or a direct shortcut. If I launch through the app list I get the tabs selected in the settings menu (folders, albums, etc.). IThe only tab I have if I open through the widget is "All tracks". Why wouldn't it just launch the app proper? X_X

[Q] touchwiz gallery and picasa

Touchwiz gallery seems to pull pictures posted in Google+ into separate folders labeled by date posted as opposed to one folder labeled "Photos from Posts" like Picasa or stock ICS/JB does.
Attached is a picture of the folders I am talking about. It's the ones I wish to remove/hide.
Three questions:
Is there any way to have it do the same as stock and place them in one folder as well?
If not, is there any way to simply hide them while keeping the rest of the folders from picasa visible?
If not, is there a third party gallery that will allow me to do the above asked.
Any help is appreciated.

QuickPic is a really good gallery replacement app.
You can exclude folders so they don't appear at all. I normally exclude music folders because I don't like seeing album art in my gallery. You can also hide private folders. You can password protect the hidden folders too which is a plus.
It's free in the Play Store.

Great app. No sync with Picasa or Facebook or anything for that matter

Better album viewer than stock or QuickPic?

The stock gallery app annoys me as it does a lot of people with the FB portion, but what also annoys me is how it arranges the photos in my albums. I like QuickPic because I can arrange my photos in my albums from the app, but I cannot send an MMS from that app. Is there an app that will allow me to send MMS from within the app, and also serves as a good album viewer?

Try Just Pictures.
I like it as much as quick pic. I think you can share from it.
Just downloaded it, looks very nice. When I try to send it as MMS there it gives me a list to share the picture, but the text icon is not listed in there.
I just downloaded Gallery ICS, which is the older style i prefer from AOSP

Same problem as the stock gallery app in that it arranges my pictures weird.
Not for me.. it just puts them in different folders (based on actual folders in the drive), and arranges from newest to oldest. I hate how sense separates them into date folders

I have a Samsung Z Flip 5G.Is there a way to custom organize photos in an album? Can I drag an individual photo and rearrange the order of the photos in an album? I know this can be done on iPhone, haven't figured out how/if it can be done on Samsung.
