Help How to view hidden images normally

[vikkidroid]

Hi, I am new Android world & using Galaxy s4 GTI9505 updated to android4.3.3. I know by putting .nomedia file in a folder or renaming the folder by prefixing with period(.) symbol hides the images of that folder from Gallery. But if I try to view the hidden files from File manager (of android stock), I am just to able to see the image (in gallery app) whichever I am clicking from file manager. From that, I am not able to view the next images by just sweeping the screen. This functionality is working fine for the non-hidden images. Its not working only if its hidden. Anybody have solution for this. Thanks for your help.

I use Quickpic which has the ability to scroll through hidden pictures that are opened using a file manager. It's in the play store.

you could use "My files" as a file explorer and open the item you're trying to access. It should allow you to choose which app is req'd to open the files.

Aloha and Good Luck!

@AeolianReflex, Thanks a lot for the quick response. I installed that & its working perfectly. Thank you so much. I was searching this solution for the past 2 weeks.

Yes, this is what I am currently doing. But the problem is the stock gallery app (Photos) doesn't allow you to scroll through other images (which are hidden) in that folder.
