Thumbs up I just found a hidden feature - I think.

Ok guys so open up the Gallery App.

When it loads your albums, press and drag your finger to the left or right and that will "tilt" the way the images are displayed, correct? Ok... so try this...

Do the same thing as mentioned above but instead of swiping your finger left or right and letting go, keep your finger pressed on the screen (keeping the photo albums "tilted") and with your other hand (or another finger) tap the opposite side of the albums then where you are holding. (i.e. if your finger swiped from the left to the right then with the other finger, tap the far right side of the screen.)

Once you do that, let go with both fingers and you will see that the albums stay "tilted" and do not revert back to the level position unless you tap the screen again.

Totally pointless but I thought it would be cool to share

Its crazy the way things are found...usually by accident. But a neat 'glitch' at that.

Re: I just found a hidden feature - I think.

I wish I understood why they tilted in the first place. I know the effect is kinda cool, but if the albums scrolled to the left or to the right or wherever I am tilting automatically THEN that would be usefull and cool.

I noticed that the albums also sway side to side when move the phone around. Just turning the phone left to right the accelerometer does the rest.
