[Q] Bug (?) with both Galleries official ICS - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hey, what's up?
I think it's maybe a bug, but maybe a mistake of mine
I have a WT19a with official ICS, rooted, locked BL.
When i deleted some pics on a folder, and put new pics from my PC to the SD card, both galleries are still showing the old pics i deleted, and don't show the new ones. I wiped data from both apps and nothing happen.
Help me, please! (and sorry for my english!)
EDIT: Now i'm realizing that the errors maybe are coming from SD card. My device is bad at synchronizing files in the card with the OS (i think) For example, i deleted some music now and Walkman player is showing up the deleted tracks anyway

No. Here's how you fix it.
Open up settings and clear data of both the galleries. Alnd then open the gallery again. And things will be fine again.
Thanks,
Rick

I forgot to say, that clearing data from the apps didn't work... and now i'm facing that error but with music and Walkman app
EDIT: Deleted data from Walkman app also and it's keeping in the same... showing already deleted tracks and not showing the new ones...

Restart phone and walkman should be fine. Try unmounting the sd, opening gallery and music player, and re mounting sd again.

Okay. Got the solution now. Open settings then applications, then all aps, and then force stop and clear data of the app media storage. Then restart. And it should be fine.

While rooting you must not have cleared data. For that, the data of GB media refresh was persistent in your SD card. And the new media refresh was using the older data causing all the mess up. Now that you cleared the data, things have started all over again. The creation of thumbnails for gallery, etc etc.
So, now when you delete a pic, the thumbnail will get deleted automatically.
All this in my opinion. I am not sure. I am no mer than a noob after all.
Thanks,
Rick

After my sk17i update to stock 4.04,the music list of music player seems stop updating.It always shows the same music files even i have deleted it.What's worse,new music copied to sd card can't be updated too.

Open up settings, and then go to appplications. Then select all apps and then search the app claeed media. Force stop it and then clear its data.
Then reboot your phone.

Gallery problem in CM10

Hey guys, I'm having issues with the gallery in epinter's CM10 rom. I've done some searching and it seems like other people's is working but everytime i open it up it shows no pictures. I've cleared its settings and cache but it still shows nothing. The only reason this bothers me is because it appears that Google+ won't instant upload pictures unless they show up in there. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm using the 8-11 release but it gave me the same issues in the release before that. Also, I'm using internal storage with no sd card if that matters.

Just download quickpic.
I've been using quickpic for several months now, but Google+ uses the gallery app (from what i can tell) to share pictures and detect new pictures for instant upload.

I'm having same issue. Also no music. Tried moving files to external and back, format both cards. Nothing I've tried has worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
MB860 Peace
I have this occasionally, but don't use G+ so it doesn't really bother me as quickpic always works. But to help with the question, I thought I read that when the Media Service is running, things like the Gallery, Maps, and a few other google apps (that use the service) might act like they're hanging, but it's because one of them is using the service. You could try force closing it, or let it finish on its own. Also, try clearing the cache on the media service/gallery/camera/maps. On occasion when the camera stops working on me if I kill the service it sometimes then starts working. This might not be the best option, but something to try.
im having the same problem... apollo dont recognize any music someone can help?
Well my camera has always been laggy on all 4.0+ roms even though some people say it works for them. Anyways, I tried clearing the data and reseting maps/gallery/camera but it still doesn't work. I'm wondering if the media service is actually just borked and I've been misinterpreting what other people have said.

Look for and delete a file named .nomedia from the base of which ever card you have these images or music on. I heard that this was something a ROM Manager update did.

I had the same issues with my pics and music. Looks like you've chosen reboot option from power off menu. For some reason after reboot pics and audio can't be recognized. Try to power off your atrix and trurn it on after few sec, this worked for me, hope will help you too.
Didn't work. Thanks anyway
MB860 Peace
Well I kinda figured out what's going on with the Gallery. It appears that a media scan won't show media already existing on the device. However, if you take a picture it will show the new pic in the gallery correctly. I've also verified that I have no .nomedia files.
I'm guessing that when a photo is taken it explicitly adds an entry to the media table, but there is a problem when a full scan is triggered which makes the gallery blank.

[Q] Move Music Cache and "Sync Picasa Web Album" to ext SD

Hi guys!
there is a thing bugging me all along.
The music cache (Google music sync) and the Sync from "Picasa Web Albums" go always to to the SD.
I just have a 16GB phone and thought that this will be enough for the S3 because most of the stuff I can put on the ext. SD.
Since I have the Music and Picture Sync enabled the 16GB on the SD fill up like no body's business... and this is very annoying.
Is there a way, patch etc. to fix this? I am sure many more people have this issue.
Thanks,
-Mike
Yeah I have the same issue. Upto now, I have just kept the music on my phone low enough.
It would be nice to switch it to ext sd though

Your devise cannot play any media with stock media player while media scan is running ( small sd card sign at notification bar). Let it complete to play media files like music and videos. Once scan completed you can play any media.

It happens sometimes with my device too while playing with memories. So, reboot ur device and then try playing the media, if it still doesnt work run the script again :good: Well i have experienced it many times till now so worry not

I have this exact same problem. I don't mind playing my music/videos from a file manager, but this also disables my freaking CAMERA. Trying to open my camera/video recorder just gives the same "Try again after media scanning complete" error message, even though the media scanner is not running.
Do I need to create some more folders on the SD card? Probably just going to try formatting and trying again, but I am so sick of doing that with this phone. If LG didn't make it practically unusable by default, it wouldn't be necessary D:<
Well guys i switched my internal and external sd and my phone scans at boot. At this second im going to try and run stock media player and see if my music shows up.. brb
Update.. my stock media player is Sh*t now and just scans usb.. im guessing cuz i switched my memories? One thing i havent tried is putting my sd card music files onto my internal sd card music folder. The only reason im not pressed to fix the issue is because the media player i downloaded is better than stock player and soon JB will be out for p769 so ill have to switch internal/external memory again. I think then my stock player will play. Its weird tho my stock player should simply scan for music files on device and sd card. Idk whats so hard about that

Can you post the forum/thread where you got your information about swapping external with internal sd. I want to know because i might be able to help. I know of two threads, and i combined information from both and everything has been working fine.

I got mine working without a format. I was using RemountSD and a script running from SManager.
I had to go into RemountSD and change to the settings posted by arman4o in the "App data on external SD" L9 thread:
arman4o said:
Try RemountSD
ICS Settings:
Interne SD - /mnt/sdcard
External SD - /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
Target external SD card - /mnt/sdcard
JB Settings:
Interne SD - /storage/Sdcard0
External SD - /sorage/Sdcard0/external_sd
Target external SD card - /storage/sdcard0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
These settings in RemountSD took care of my media scanning issues (as soon as I rebooted the media scanner started up, when before it was freezing), and now I can use my camera again.
Unfortunately now my 32gb microSD card is no longer showing as my primary internal storage. In fact, it's not showing up at all. But at this point I already have all the large games installed to the microSD that I needed (and even though it doesn't show up under storage, the games still work), so I am just going to wait until a JB 769 ROM before I mess with all this crap again.
