Re: Folder structure for photo albums
When I go into Albums I have:
![]() If I select a picture, hit Menu>Set As>Favorite then it'll add that pic to another album called My Favorites: ![]() Beyond that, I don't know how to add more albums.

Re: Folder structure for photo albums
I think I figured it out. Basically, you can arrange photos in any folder on the SD card, and it will find them, apparently, unless you put them in the place you would think to put them. I began by breaking all my photos from my computer down into album folders and placed them in the DCIM folder on the SD Card. That resulted in what you show in your screenshots. I then moved all the album folders out of the DCIM folder and just dropped them in the root folder. At first, I didn't think that had worked, which is why i started the thread. I then went back and it refreshed itself and now shows all my folders as I intended.
Hope this helps. I'm totally new to Android, so I'm still trying to get out the WM habits. I do have to say though, this is one helluva device!! I know it's got a few downfalls (the SMS battery drain, the stereo/mono earpiece issue...), but I have a feeling that Sprint will, in fact, push out updates and patches for this guy quicker than we're used to seeing. The Palm Pre kind of fell flat for all the potential it could have had, but this thing seems to have legs that Sprint would be wise to not let the momentum die. |

Re: Folder structure for photo albums
Ok, I understand what you're saying now with the albums and creating folders on the SD card. I with there was an easier way to create albums on the phone rather than having to connect it to a computer to have to do it.
I know what you mean by trying to get out of the WM habits. I just had the Touch Pro 2 for a month and decided to return it because I didn't feel it was worth the high price, even though it is a spectacular device. I've never used Android before and after only using the Hero for a few days, well, I think I'm in love! I do have to disagree with you about your view of the Pre. There may not be much official hype or whatever, but if you look over at PreCentral there is a ton of work going on. |

Re: Folder structure for photo albums
If I'm not mistaken, and again, I myself am also a noob to Android, but I think there are file explorers on the Market that allow creation of folders; however, I've found that mounting the SD Card and having it show up as an external drive on the pc/mac is really pretty darn fast as far as file transfers.
I know when I had my Touch and had it connected to my PC (albeit, the laptop was WAY outdated and slow on its own), the file transfers took FOREVER. I actually took the time to remove the SD card and put it in a usb converter stick to add files. Connecting my Hero to my Mac is lightning quick. and I wasn't bashing the Pre. I think it's pretty nice, but I think Sprint may have botched the marketing on it. I think it had/has way more potential than the attention that has been given to it. |
