I have UK WiFi version of the flyer I have put a 32gb memory card in to give me more storage , formatted it on the flyer and then transfered my pictures to the memory card . I can see my movies in gallery but my pics won't show have even put them on the internal memory
All my pics are in seperate folders which work fine in this way on my galaxy note so why won't they show on my flyer ?
Please help
Thanks

try this...some people reported that songs did not show up in the mediaplayer, which is basically the same problem....

Another option you might try is to use ES File Explorer or a similar program. Go to the folders where your pictures and the music are, and create into this folder a new one. Don't put any files in this folder! Just rename the created folder in .nomedia and reboot with fastbootmode ( in the energy settings) disabled.
I had similar problems once with an Archos 70 Internettablet, and this was the solution that worked for me.....

I just installed Wolfs V7b4 but now my gallery is empty, no music in stock player, ringtones gone. I have tried clearing data in Media Storage, fixing permissions, installing SDrescan which just said "done" after starting :s
Wolf mentioned app StudioKUMA.nomedia which can exclude folders from scanning for faster boot so i installed it to check it anything is excluded but none of the folders are.
Has someone had that problem or does someone know how i can manually scan for media?
I had this too, but i fixed it by formatting my SD card and but the files back on it. So just copy everything from your SD card, then format SD card and than put everything back. I hope this helped for you

Search on the market for an app that may rescan your media...try the rescan media app
I formated my sd twice now, nothing changed. Restored backup and installed every app I could find for media scanning yet the only thing that has changed is that I have my pics from facebook althou I didnt have them before. Poweramp finds my mp3s and plays them with no problem so I dont think its sd cards fault for this

Thats from the stuido .nomedia app which places a very small file in any directory you want on your sd card which stops the media scanner scanning it, very useful if you have lots of folders with no media in them.....
But a bit of a schoolboy error there!!
Hmm but i used .nomedia app after all that happened and i haven't excluded any folder. Most of my sd is full of music and few pics so i want everything to be available.

If you want everything available dont use .nomedia....
delete all .nomedia files....
I find it easier to have all music in one folder with subdirectories and the same for pics and videos...
I havent used it in first place, I have no idea how it ended up on my phone.
Got only one 13gb folder with music and 150mb of pics in camera folder.

I've started moving over to QuickPic but if i use this program to edit, move or copy to another file (i.e. DCIM) then sense album just won't see it. Not really a big problem until i want to send it as a MMS because messages uses sense album to choose the image.
Even if i restart the phone or even delete the cache, sometimes the images just never show up.
The pictures are there, nothing wrong with the images, my file manager sees them no problem.
Another thing, HTC album widget doesn't see the changes if I use Quickpic to make any chages, i.e. cropping.
Is it just me? Any help?
cheers, john.

Im not too sure but i think it has something to do with the phones built in "HTC Storage" and your external sd card. I think the phone is looking at one of the storages and not the other. What i did was completely ditch my 32gb sd card since i dont even use it much and use the phones internal 16gb storage instead. But with all the partitions or whatever i get like only 10gigs back

Do you use Quickpic? Or another photo editing software?
So I have the 16 GB BBY WiFi-Only Flyer. The ONLY ROM that allows me to read sd card music and photos is Mwakious. Any other ROM, no apps except file managers can read the sd. Any ideas? I have formatted the sd, rebooted, cleared media storage data, cleared caches, etc. I am at a loss. Help, please!
US builds of honeycomb weren't build to read external storage for media (photos, music)
this is rectified in ICS. unfortunately for us we'll have to wait...
Well,they won't read the internal sd either.

I’m using a Best Buy flyer with a US build of HoneyComb (with all my Music, Movies and Pictures on the external card.) and it has no problem reading my external sdcard.

Which apps can’t read your cards?

Seriuly, that's aperfectly bizarre claim. My Honeycomb Flyer has no trouble reading either of the internal memory partitions or my external SD card. In fact, the external card is where I keep my movies.
Now true, it does take the machine a bit to discover the card on first boot, but it will see it eventually.

I created a folder called Media on my external sd card with subfolders for movies, books, music and pictures and have no problems with the system reading all my files.
I then moved all the books (the free ones that come with honeycomb) to my external Media/Books and rebooted.
At boot I get a notification that books were imported and they now appear in the My Shelf widget.
Now back to the OP problem I would suggest a full wipe and clean install for any Rom.
Of course this means you’ll have to reinstall all your apps and rebuild your home screens.
I would not restore any system data from a backup.
This although not a universal issue, is not an uncommon problem. I have had this happen to me while moving from rom to rom after doing a full wipe. If you search it out there are a couple of threads to this effect. I have always managed to get my media to be visable after some effort. I have wiped caches, cleared app data, created a in.nomedia folder in the music directory, unmounted and mounted sd cards, moved the files from internal to sd, used power amp free trail and played music from there, etc. Eventually something pops.
Now mwakious will see I have 7 songs and my photos. Not all my music or photos. Its not that it hasn't loaded them yet

it happens when you do a complete wipe. I have a nandroid backup of when I first flashed globatrons s off method. If I restore that then flash any rom with out a wipe my music files are all visable. If I wipe then flash I have to play games with my media till they are visable but I am always able to get them visable after enough tinkering.
Well, I went to Lee Droid since it's my fav, but still nothing with my sd. I hope I can get it to work. If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to post them.
I had the same problem last night with DeSensed-View Version 1.5. (My girlfriend also had similar problems with the stock Honeycomb ROM - part of the reason she wanted me to revert her back to GB.)
I have all of my images stored in internal memory in a folder called "Pictures," and all of my videos in a folder called (gasp) "Videos." When I go into the gallery, it only shows content from the DCIM folder and Picasa/Google+. So I went into ES File Explorer and clicked on a picture... it wouldn't open. Long-press, "Open As," "Image," nothing... didn't open at all. When I click a video, it gives me the option to open with the Gallery app, and that works fine, but the videos never show up in folders in the Gallery app. So basically, I can never view any of the images in a folder other than DCIM, and I have to go through a file explorer to get to my videos. Needless to say, I went back to Gingerbread before the night was through.
Rather frustrating problem...
Just so you guys know, my media still hasn't shown up.
Have you tried moving your media files to your dcm folder?

hi jason
are you sure your SD is mounted and recignized?
try to pull it off, and re-insert it. afterwards reboot your device.
if it still isn't recognized try to read it with a card reader\another device and backup+format it.
All the photos in the sd show up perfectly its the internal sd that doesnt show pictures. Also it looks like the root directory has been changed to sdcard/storage/sdcard0
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
What if your ext-sd damaged inside? Did you try to another sd card? Music player read your mp3 from that sdcard? Or a file explorer app can see and open your pictures?

I have a similar problem. My external SD card is mounted and browsable using ES File Explorer and all my media files are visible and viewable from ES. However, none of the media files on the external card appear in the various apps (i.e. pictures not visible in gallery, mp3s in the music player etc.). What is even stranger is that once I set the stock camera to save new pictures to the external SD these pictures are visible in the gallery, however all other pictures present taken on my previous phone (HTC Desire) are still not visible, even when located in the same folder. The same pictures do show up if I transfer them to the internal SD card but I would rather not have them all stored there.
Any help would be very much appreciated!
Cheers,
Sam

I have the direct opposite problem, my internal doesn't show, whereas met ext-sd is visible in my apps. Need help too!
I have resolved this on mine, I formatted the external sd card and copied everything back. I guess the S3 just didn't like reading a card formatted by the Desire, I'll know better next time!

Search inside your photo folders. If you see a file named .nomedia delete it.
This is because you're using third party file manager. Use the stock My File to move the files back and forth and it will show up in the gallery.

I read somewhere that there was a bug in cwm manager latest version which put a .nomedia file in the root directory. There are fixes where you have to remove the .no media file and reinstall cwm.

sd card does not show on my lg optimus p509, while it works on other phones and pcs. it shows sdcard umnounted or not inserted while i was sending a file through bluetooth before, and from then onwards...i have formatted it through pc also. i had rooted it with superclickone before. it is from t-mobile and i have unlocked it in my country. current software version lg-p509-v10l, android version 2.2, kernel 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1 sun oct 24 19:10:09 kst 2010, build number FRF91. thank you...
My sd photos do not show in my Gallery
Dears,
All you need to do rather than resetting your phones is simply go to your application manager and clear the cache and anything for the Gallery as an application. And make sure that you also acquire the Gallery app with all the needed permissions to access your sd card. Then open your Gallery app, and there you go.
Enjoy!

Hey Gurus,
My file system seems to be having trouble. I used to have a number of items accessible through the built-in Gallery, Music, and Google Play Music, but now they're all gone from view, but I can access them through a file mgr app ES File Explorer. Another symptom is that when I take a screenshot, it reports that it is saving the jpg, then that it cannot save it, yet it actually does write the jpg as I can see it via File Explorer.
When I run the Music app it shows nothing but a message that I need to load and SD card - funny - no SD card slot on the phone.
Two possible software related causes come to mind, but I don't know for sure that either one is definitely responsible. (1) I used Nexus Media Importer to load an album of mp3s from an SD card to the HTC One, and (2) I also used the HTC Sync app on my pc.
So I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and what action might fix the problem
Thanks,
Doug

Use your file manager and move all the objects from /data/media to /data/media/0
you should be all set
