I know that the native Gallery application of Android can display pictures stored from a Picasa Web account. I have searched the SDK but could not figure out if there is a way to make media rss available in the native gallery applications (and ideally would work with any gallery application).
I thought of creating a ContentProvider, to make these available but the gallery seems to only display what is added through the MediaStore.
If you have any idea, let me know.
Thank you very much.
Unfortunately it is not possible to add Media RSS in the native gallery without modifying its source code. No API allows that.

I would like to make image sharing easier by implementing what Telegram does to send a picture:
That is, a gallery strip with the latest pictures.
But until now I've only worked with external intents to launch the native gallery.
How can I implement this? Do I have to manually search the phone for pictures? I assume I require strong permissions for this?
I am developing an application for Android I want the button in the .html file to show the device's native gallery (in my case is android) which user can select multiple images and present it's thumbnails in the html page.
I already watch the video in This Website and I still get confusing.
Thank you for all suggestion and solutions.
Ps. I found the solution of select multiple images Here but I am not sure how to use it. ;(
Unfortunately, this is not possible with the current Gallery application of Android.
Within the Gallery application, you can select multiple photos and you can share them using SEND_MULTIPLE Intent. But that is different.
When you select photo from your application, that is called PICKER. And PICKER Intent does not support multiple selection.
I would like to be able to create an Android app that adds additional photo albums to the default android photo gallery. The content of these albums would be remote, similar to how the Picasa albums are handled. I have looked into the media scanner and it seems to not handle remote content and I have not been able to find any reference for the gallery itself or any other means of providing additional photo albums.
I have done some searching on the android developers site, here and general Googling and have come up short... does anyone have any suggestions about how this can be accomplished?
Thanks in advance.
If you are talking about the android stock gallery, this is what ive found out:
The android albums are not actually albums, but folders.
You justo need to create a folder with the name you want the album to show and there must be at least one picture in it.
Hope it helps!
How to implement SD Card Gallery into our application directly?
I know it is possible in iphone . We can implement and access photos of sdcard directly without any customization in iphone.
I want to implement the same interface of Gallery into android app.
Please let me know...
Thank you.
Here is a link to get you started.

and this one will give you a rough idea too. Of course, you will have to improvise later to make it function just the way you want it to.
Android How to preview an image, using its file path from SDcard, from my application
I need to add gallery to my android app. I used gallery in standard way, when pictures are in my folder, but now I need to show pictures when I have just pictures URLs(pictures are on some distant server). How can I achieve that ?
Is the server yours?
You might need to make an API to get the images from the server served to you.
