Hi, I was organizing my photos into one folder and now I have some photos, the once I moved, with an "!" instead of a thumbnail in my gallery. I have cleared cache for gallery and rebooted, deleted the thumbnail folder with no luck. Is there anything I can do?
Thanks
I would try to move them to a computer and see if they show. What format does it say it's in?

They are taken VIA Camera Zoom Fx and are in jpeg format.

If they are still in the jpeg format, try to copy them over to a computer via usb. See if they show up. If they do, transfer them back over to another folder. See if that works. Just throwing ideas out there that might help.

When ever I have a photo or a icon or something on my SD card that becomes corrupted some how that's what it shows up as in the gallery. I would definitely try what Jay said though and transfer to your pc and see if they show.

By moving the photos to a different folder maybe it was corrupted or that it can not find the original path of the photo. I have that come up once in a while when i delete a photo from the camera app, root explorer. The thumbnail cache still exists in the gallery but it can not find the jpeg.

Does anyone have any problems with the stock gallery thumbnails?
Mine shows each small thumbnail as black and white and split in two, disjointed and then wrapping back round again.
Once I open a picture \ video they load fine but it makes finding pictures hard as you can't tell which is which.
I probably wasn't very clear when writing that. The pictures show what I meant with my gallery... Anyone have any ideas?
try unmounting the SD card in settings, and then restart the phone. That might force the gallery to rescan the SD card for images and refresh the thumbnails.
I would suggest using root explorer to clear the thumbnail cache, but i don;t know where it's stored...
Tried unmounting the sd and also deleting the the thumbnail folder on the sd card. No luck
Someone must have come across this?!
Is there a way I can reinstall the stock app?

Hi all, I'm having a problem with the gallery. I use the stock gallery and JustPictures. I put a bunch of photos on the phone in the correct location on the sd card. However, only new pictures taken with the phone display in either gallery. I can browse the directory and see both new and copied photos so I know all the pictures are in the right place.
Have tried rebooting as well as clearing the app data for both apps.
Help!

Sure surprised me. The update left everything else intact. The Gallery app doesn't even have my Picasa photos either. I can choose Picasa and it shows the folders, but every album has no content in it.
Update: after a refresh a couple of times the gallery app finally agreed I had albums and photos in Picasa. Still no sign of any photo that was previously on my phone. Even a photo I took in the morning right before I updated the phone has disappeared.
Anyone else notice this?
Are you sure they are missing from the sd card? An OTA update never touches the sd card.
Use a root explorer and see if your photo's are still on your sd card, if you can see them then either your sd card needs to be formated or it could be bad.

Thanks. Found the photos using a file explorer. Can use the file explorer to open the photos using the Gallery app. Apparently they hard coded a change in the Gallery app to where it looks for photos though, because I can see an photo I've take since the update, but there appears to be no way to tell the Gallery App to find and display the prior photos right where they were originally stored on my SD card.
Anyone have an "easy" way to fix this?

Once the File Explorer proved the original photos were still on board, I simply plugged the phone into my PC and moved them to where the camera/gallery app are currently saving/finding photos. Took a moment to thin out and sort them as well. Could have done all this with the File Explorer, but much easier on the large screen of my PC.
Okay, I noticed I had a huge amount of photos and videos, so I copied and pasted the folders under DCIM to my PC.
Today when i went to take new pictures, I hit the gallery icon at the lower right to review one of them, and it takes me to a page that flashes "camera shots" I think at the top real quick, and then ALBUMS with an arrow pointing down.
It used to show my recent pictures here, but now it shows...
"No photos found"
I've rebooted, I've cleared the camera and gallery settings, but this still exists. Pictures I've taken today are in the appropriate folders, the SD card is mounted, and there isn't a nomedia file in the folder. Help?
I hate gallery. It always does stupid junk like that. If you use USB disk transfer, you have to reboot before it recognizes the external SD. Sometimes, you just have to leave it alone for a few minutes and it will fix itself.
Thanks, yeah, it's been a few days, and about 12 reboots.
They show up in gallery, just not when I hit that shortcut icon.
I take that back, they are NOT showing up in the gallery, but they show up in ES File Explorer.
I also tried clearing HTC Sense settings, no good.
I tried wipe data through Titanium Backup, no help.
Anyone?

Have you tried clearing cache and dalvik in recovery?

That did it! Thank you so much, I was really stumped.
I wonder why that worked, and why I didn't think of it?

I copied about 400 photos from my G Nexus to the DCIM/Camera folder on my external SD card in my S4.
The camera was already pointing to the external SD card to save photos, and any photos I take show up in the Gallery, but the ones I copied there don't show up in the Gallery.
I can see the photos with Root Explorer, but I can't get those photos to show up in the Gallery. I've tried changing the settings for what photos display in the Gallery to refresh the photos displayed, but that doesn't help.
Appreciate any advice...I'm stumped.
Nvm...DOH! Rebooted and they are there now in the Gallery.
