Some of you people have the need to sometimes hide pictures and images from your Symbian device image gallery. Various reasons would be avoiding the same mistakes some top celebrity’s done in the past, people like Rakhi Sawant or Priya Rai, both known for leaking nude images and videos to the public. That is of course nothing I have any knowledge of but I have received some inquires about hiding pictures from public viewing and these things always gets my imagination roaming free.
Hiding “unwanted” images is a pretty simple procedure involving file attributes.
Here’s what you need to do:
- Download and install Y-browser, a free file browser for Symbian devices. Download Now
- Note the filename of the image you’d like to hide.
- Open Y-browser and select [options] – [search files].
- Enter your image filename in the filename field followed by “.*”. An example would be “myimage.*”.
- Select [Options] – [Start search].
- Highlight your file in the search result list and select [Options] – [File] – [Attributes].
- Change “System” and “Hidden” to yes and select [Save].
- Repeat this process for all of the images you want to be hidden.
- Exit Y-Browser and restart your phone. It should all work now!
The applications using these images will still be able to access them as normal but you’ll no longer have to view them in your gallery.
