just used this link given by leshak
*forum.samdroid.net/threads/924-Beta-Gallery-3D-for-i5700?p=11974&viewfull=1#post11974
and by the way all spica users i recommend to try the 3d gallery at least once.
it is so much more awesome than the original gallery.
Yeah link is fine, I got it from the same link, but how did you navigate to /system/app without rooting??

@everybody

some bugs that i faced was that if i went into a photo then in menu, rotate left/right
and then i zoom in on that photo or any other photo the whole screen goes completely white. then if i double tap and zoom out everything is fine. the one way to solve this bug is to go to main screen of gallery ie get out of current folder and then come back again.
also sometimes during that rotation i got force close.
another bug is that many times when i open the gallery it just tells no items to show. and remains blank. then i press back button and start gallery again and everything is alright.
please fix these bugs. i just super duper love this gallery. the samsung gallery is crap.
I face the same white screen issue and the problem seems to be with the usage of downsized image by 3D gallery. I doesn't allow zooming to original size.
Apart from this, never faced force close and other bugs.

hmm actually i didnt read that part or forgot i guess.
so i just installed the apk file as an app just like i would for any other app using astro file manager.
that white on zoom happens only sometimes not always.

hmm i wonder if i didnt put it in that /system/app folder is the reason for my crashes.
could someone explain the diff of installing idrectly vs puttin in that folder.
again i have not yet rooted my phone and dont have custom rom. just using jc5 fw that came preinstalled on my phone.

^^ No root, no custom mod?? How the hell did 3D gallery run??





It runs very well...Just installed .apk like any other app....
Works really well except that while panning thru photos, looks like phone's really working hard to display 3d stuff it shows some white lines..


and by the way all spica users i recommend to try the 3d gallery at least once.

Yeah! its awesome...But still needs some more polishing and streamlining.!!

@ ashish
Dude i said in a very healthy way & i even wrote thanks after that.May be i used the wrong words :)
Ok i'l try writing that problem.i hope u guys understand.

THE PROBLEM WAS THAT ODIN WAS STUCK AT "SETUP CONNECTION"

Im assuming that u have installed new pc studio on ur pc.
In your phone,
go to settings->about phone->additional settings & uncheck the "connect only in USB mode".
Then connect your phone to your pc & it will install the remaining imp. drivers(i.e usb modem,adb etc.)
Then follow the flashing procedure & it will work.
If need any help,feel free to ask.

ps- after the usb modem drivers installed,device manager still showed "samsung mobile modem" but the flashing wil work ;)

has anyone tried Adobe reader & vudroid.
which do you think is better for pdf viewing.
Adobe has nice reflow option but vudroid has fast rendering.
