Some guy over at XDA ported the froyo gallery app to 2.1 eclair, here is the thread
froyo 3d gallary portd for android 2.1 - xda-developers

and the file can be downloaded here (copy and paste in browser window)
***IF YOU HAVE 3D GALLERY FROM MARKET ALREADY INSTALLED, UNINSTALL FIRST***

Installed straight from sdcard and it runs perfectly, and boy is that pinch preview feature fun. I believe since it runs off the sdcard it loads gallery pictures faster, or at least appears to do so on my end. Runs perfect on my Droid X so I thought i'd post it here.
 
Looks great, but unfortunately doesn't support HDMI :(

Here, I took some pictures:

1) Download the app
2) Click on Install
3) Have a coke n a smile ;)


No, but make sure under Settings -> Applications that "Unknown Sources" is checked.



Also, make sure you download the app on your phone and not on your computer, then execute from the '/sdcard/downloads' folder.


ive done this plenty of times with other apps but for some reason this one is just giving me problems :( and not working right..

CRAZY I cannot get this installed. Deleted the 3d App, rebooted, battery pulled and I keep getting the same error. I'm also guessing that stock gallery is not unistalled either (as it would require root).

Will hopefully get when Froyo is released, but for some reason I am stupified as I have never had issues installing anything on Droid, Incredible so there is got to be something wrong with my setup somewhere. CRAZY.

Does the launch camera icon in the top right corner work? I downloaded a version of the 3D gallery from this article, and it doesn't work. It just blanks the screen for a second then returns to the gallery. other than that, it works.


Update: Never mind, it works. Had to delete the old app, and install the new. A little sluggish (about 3 seconds to launch), but it's better than no launch at all. Got my Picasa folders in the Gallery too!
