Hide Images in certain folders from appearing in the phone's gallery S60v5 (5800, X6, N97, etc...)

After doing this, your phone's gallery will search for pictures only from the E:\Images folder!


Click this bar to view the full image.



Ever wanted to hide some pictures and videos from your phone's gallery but in vain? Your gallery looking messed up? Your wallpapers getting mixed up with personal photos?

Well, Here is the solution to exclude all folders in the E:\ drive so that the phone's gallery won't search for photos in any folder except the default "Image" folder!!



So let's do it:

1. Hack your phone

2. Enable the "Open4All" patch and "c2z" patch in RomPatcher+

3. Download this file

4. Open file manager activefile or x-plore and copy file to:
C:\private\10202BE9\

5. Restart your phone...

6. DONOT open Gallery (important!!!!)

7. Delete Cache folder from
E:\Private\101f8857
and
C:\Private\101f8857

8. Now open Gallery. Give it time to load all your images.

9. Enjoy!! Phone will only recognize images from the IMAGES folder in E drive. If you have wallpapers in another folder, it will not be shown in the gallery. But you can still access those pictures from "X-Plore" or "Resco Photo Viewer"

OPTIONAL:
If you want edit the file (to include more folder names so that they will be excluded by the phone's gallery)
0x1 string - for C drive
0x2 string - for E drive

(Edit at your own risk. If you don't know what you are doing, then don't do it! Editing wrongly will mess up your phone!! You have been warned)


Plz comment!! :)
