Gallery App

So you want it to show you the pictures by the folder they are in. OK, most can do that. Even Google Photos has that option, but it's not very prominent (one row in the "albums" page is actually images sorted by folder). Looking on my device currently F-Stop has a "Folders" view as the top option in the list of views (and is the only one I use), Simple Gallery always starts with a set of folder (as does QuickPic, but since that was bought by Cheetah Mobile I would warn you strongly against installing that - I have an old pre-Cheetah copy still). I seem to have deleted all of the others I'd tried, but I'm pretty sure all of them could show a folders view somewhere.

Of course within a folder they will still be displayed with some sort of sorting (by date is commonest, but they all let you choose). Some will do some grouping within the folder but again you can change that or turn it off in most cases (e.g. F-Stop just puts a bar across the screen to indicate a change of month, Simple Gallery lets you turn off all grouping). It's worth playing with the settings of an app to see whether you can set it up the way you want.

As for "still available to other apps", I'm afraid I don't understand that. A gallery app is just an image viewer, and its settings have no effect on how another app can view the same images or whether other apps can access them.

There is usually one special case: in your camera app you have the option to review an image after taking it, which takes you into a gallery app. Most manufacturers install their own camera app and their own gallery app, and their camera app is usually hard-coded to use their gallery app for this image review (i.e. there's usually no option to change it to one you might prefer). But you can use that just for review in the camera app and use something else as your actual gallery.

PLEASE HELP ME!!

this is my take, if you buy a phone off of ebay or craig's list or even a website, i would not pay any money until the phone has been inspected by you. in fact i always suggest that the deal be done in person and at the carrier you plan to sign the phone up with. this way you can verify with the carrier that the phone is legit and not blacklisted as well as getting the phone registered with them. after that then you can pay the man, as they say.
Absolutely agree with you!

Apps Architectural question: Android Studio Navigation Drawer template project files

My question is an architectural question about Android Studio's Navigation Drawer template project files.
I am teaching myself to use Android for an app for my final year BSc computing project with the Open University (UK).

1) Why does the Navigation Drawer template project include both ViewModel java files for each of the Fragments as well as fragment java files?

I'm trying to understand if this is the way Fragments are usually structured with a separate java file for the actual content of a Fragment screen. If this is the case, what would I put in the Fragment java file rather than the ViewModel java file?

2) The template also provides a second home Fragment, I'm really not sure why? Any explanation for that? (I don't think I need this...)

3) As I'm completely new to Android Fragments (I think I understand how to work with just Activities), could someone please explain the role of the single Activity in the the Navigation Drawer template project?

I understand that you need an Activity to underpin the Fragments. Does the Activity actually need to be one of the visible screen like the home screen (as it would be in an app without Fragments) or is it just there behind the scenes providing the functionality for the Fragments according to what java code I put in the Fragments and Activity java files?

These things are puzzling me.

So far I have adapted the Navigation Drawer template so that there is just the one MainActivity.java file with 5 Fragments, each with a unique Fragment.java and ViewModel.java file and a layout.xml file per Fragment. The home screen is one of the Fragments and the Activity is not visible. Is this a good structure?

Any explanations or feedback would be very gratefully received, thanks from purplebeans!

Galaxy M20 BOOTLOOP! Can you help me?

It just seems like your previous flashed firmware was on a highr aboot and now that your trying to flash the correct firmware for your device it could be on a lower aboot (fused).

Count 5 digits from the end of the first firmware you flashed (the incorrect firmware)

for instance my Note 4 previous firmware was

N910PVPS4DPK1 and fused (aboot) 4

uodated firmware

N910PVPU5DQ15 and fused (aboot) 5

Since I am now on fused 5, I am unable to downgrade bootloader and modem. Trying to will result in Odin fail.

Also try another version of Odin
