Try File Manager. I can see the .nomedia file using it.

Hello.
i have install program from the SD memory and some of the pictures displayed
in the album.
is there any were to hide the pictures or remove them without getting error on the software.
Thanks in advance
Search the Market for hide photos, I'm sure there are a few options
you can create an empty text file (using notepad), call it ".nomedia" and remove the ".txt" extension.
Place this file where you want pictures/audio to be ignored...
works for me.
I tried to upload a sample file, but for some reason, I can't, but it is pretty straight forward.
Thanks For the Help. but when i copy the txt-nomedia nothing is happening- i can still see the files
Or, rename the folder the pics are in to .(name here)
Android ignores folders that have a (.) as the beginning character
wow it works but the program wont open :/
thanks anyway. i learned something new

Oh well that seems to be a problem. I suggest you email the developer and ask him to put it so that the pics don't show in the gallery. It has a simple fix on his part
Yes, Maybe i will do it.
Thank you For you Help
maybe some how i will learn how ti use the commands in Linux

Reboot your Hero.
Problem
The problem is that after a few days the files in the directory containing the .noname file are gone. The directory is than empty exept for the .noname file, that still exists.
Hey Guys,
My English is not perfect, sorry about that. I think you could help me to solve this problem.
I have cyanogen 6 the final version on my mini pro and my media apps (like gallery 3d, or MIUI music) can't find any pictures or music from sd card. But these files are in the sd card - I can open it from my computer or Es File Explorer. One gallery app said that it can't find any photos from sd, because I have to get access for it, or something like that. I think this is because of the superuser app.
Thanks for the answers.
I had the same issue initially. A reinstall of the ROM fixed it though.
I tried this. First Gallery 3d was ok, but laiter it started showing ,,there are no items in your collection. I think the files in sd card are protected or something like that. But thank you Sideromelane for your trying to help. Any more idea?
Hey check if you have a file/folder named 'nomedia.' in your sd card. If yes delete it.
Worked for me.

Make sure you look for it with your PC, as it's a hidden android file and some android explorers won't show it, it's a file called .nomedia
check whether its excluded from media scan...
Yeah! I found the file with name .nomedia and deleted it. Now it works perfect!
Thank you guys for your help!
i know this seems like a dumb question but i want to make a album and put pics in there. how do i do this on my phone?
Use astro file manager. You are able to create a new directory (folder) and can move all of your pictures into it.
2nd option... Use za computa!

camera will place it in the default folder.... however, if you download a file manager and create a new folder on the sd card you should be able to move the files from one folder to another and then in the Gallery app it will appear as a separate folder or "gallery". Thats how I have been doing it on my android phones for awhile.
Hope that helps.

Use an app called SDRescan.. it'll rescan your SD card you and it should fix that.

This. Or go into settings-storage then select unmount sd card and then select mount sd card... That is usually what I do.
did both but still a no go...in astro. where exactly am i supposed to add the folder?
Press the menu button when you are on astro. You should see "create directory". I created a folder called media and placed it in the root of the SD card, then I created sub folders within the folder and placed my videos and pictures in there. Everything worked.
There are a lot of file managers out there.
I've always used AndroZip - they have a free and paid version - and still think it's easier than Astro.
I'm sure it's only because I'm used to it, but it's more "Windowsy" - long press to "right click" and you have a paste button that pops up when something is cut or copied.
The multi-select is easier (imo) than Astro's as well.
Not that downloading a billion different file managers will help, but if you're having trouble...
The only place you CANNOT make the folder...
Is inside ANY folder that has a hidden file in it called .nomedia
If you make a new folder in the root of the SD card, you should be fine. You'll still have to force the Gallery to udpate in order to see them though. Fail safe - power down completely, power back up (probably need to disable fastboot first to be 100% sure, but it should reload the SD card at boot either way).
YAHTZEEE!!!!!!
thanks to all the replies!

yes bro... but in file manager i don't find that folder it only visible in gallery....

You can delete multiple pictures at once in gallery. On the page that has the index of all pictures in a folder, pick More, then Delete. You can then select as many pictures as you want to delete.
Or take your sd card out and use a computer.

I see. In that case, I'd use a file explorer on my computer after plugging in my sd card. You could also use your phone by using something like ES File Explorer, although I work faster on my computer.
I have flashed a sony based rom some time ago and I have noticed that the sony sample pictures cannot be deleted from the gallery, even using root explorer or file explorer fails to remove them from the system. If anyone has a suggestion or solution please let me know.

just a thought, when using root explorer did you mount the system as Read/Write before deleting pics?

Yes, I mounted system as Read/Write and tried other file managers. Root Explorer is the only one that says it cannot complete action, the others says they are deleted but the thumbnails remain. In the gallery they can be deleted but they reappear the next time it is opened.

I'm sorry, but I'm not really familiar with your device so, I cannot further suggest anything specific.
don't know if this'll work, how about placing a .nomedia file in the folder which contains those pictures?
