All my pictures are still in SDCARD/DCIM/Camera directory and other directories where jpeg files are, but my ICS stock Gallery app cannot detect them ever since I cleaned the Camera app and Gallery app cache..
Is there any way to get them back to display on my Gallery app?
I tried
1) reflashing GAPPS
2) Move the pictures out from DCIM folder, reboot, and put it back on
3) Sync manually
4) Reset settings to default (camera app)
None of them seem to work... only new pictures that I take shows up..

I am running TnT Lite 4.4 (Love it).
I have moved some pictures onto both the internal sdcard and sdcard2. But gallery does not pick them up and display them. It sees my picasa pics, but nothing local.
I do not see any options under Gallery to set a local directory.
Does nayone know how to configure Gallery to look at a local dir for pictures?
I'm seeing the same thing. So far in searches I haven't found an answer.
Additional behavior, if I browse to a picture in the file manager it opens with gallery, but the only controls that work are the zoom in/out. The more and share controls will briefly show and then disappear if you long press.
Me too...
I have been having Gallery problems for some time now, about 2 weeks to be exact. I get no thumbnails, and no gallery found. Nothing I have tried to do will show the pics on my gtablet. However, if I go into an app like RootExplorer, and go to the folder with pics, I can get them to be displayed by apps like Just Pictures, etc. Even Gallery will display the individual pics but very slowly.
So far, have not been able to conquer this problem. I was told to add a folder named .nomedia . But that did not work.
It's aggravating not having Gallery working.
Dear all,
I am looking for a gallery app with the option to display all photos on my android without being grouped into folders, so they display all at once.
I have a couple of camera apps which store photos in their own separate folders, and it's becoming a bit of a mess. Of course I could move all photos (and downloaded pictures) into one folder, but I would need to be doing this regularly.
Any ideas?
Cheers
gallery... all photos...
or get quickpic and add all the folders and none of the junk ones.
Thanks, but that's not quite what I meant.
I want the any gallery app which will display ALL of the photos/images on the sd card without having me choose a folder first.
I was trying to get rid of Drop Box and other Picasa folder that was randomly created by cleaning the Camera app cache and it started to delete all my pictures one by one in about a minute.
But all my photos are still in DCIM folder and some other picture folders in SDCARD directory.
It's just that my stock gallery app can't find them, so it says I have 0 images...
I went to settings and looked at option like Backup and Restore as well as Account & sync (only has an option for Google Photos but this doesn't seem to be it). I disabled Backup and Restore by default.. I enabled them for a day but didn't do anything.
Is there a way to back up the pictures? Things like bookmark, contacts, pictures automatically backed up whenever I flashed new ROM or update them, but it seems like my phone deleted all of them this time...
Please help me out!
Hi all,
Just wanted to put this information out there in case anybody else is pulling out their hair trying to figure this out.
PROBLEM:
Using the Google Photos app, upon deletion of pictures, a restart brings the pictures back. Occasionally caused corrupt pictures.
SOLUTION:
When I stopped using the photos app and used the LG gallery app, all seems to work fine.
Steps I took to resolve:
- Factory reset (5 times) - DIDN'T WORK
- Deleted 3rd party apps (Keep safe - Hides photos) - DIDN'T WORK
- Cleared gallery cache - DIDN'T WORK
- Deleted Photos from Googles Photos app - DIDN'T WORK
- Deleted photos from Gallery APP - WORKED
I found if you use a photo app that hides pics it usually hides them in the internal memory. So if you go back and pull a picture to hide that's located in your ext sd card it will just copy it. Best bet when wanting to delete or move a picture you are trying to hide make sure it's in the internal memory first.
When I take a picture, the picture goes to DCIM folder of my phone. Does each gallery app copy the picture from DCIM to its own storage? If I installed two gallery apps on my phone, will I be using twice the storage for my picture? or the Apps will just share the pictures in DCIM.
Your doubt every gallery app use the one storage dcim which it shows it no affects how many gallery app u have if u have thousands of gallery apps the all will show one folder called DCIM
