[Q] Why cant I see my Picasa images? - HTC Droid DNA

Ok, for some reason I can no longer see any images I take with my DNA in my picasa album? My photos would just automatically upload without any issues. Now I'll see the image I took with the phone in the album thumbnail, but when I open the album up the images are not there. I don't get it?
The last image I see is one I took with my Gnex of my new DNA, lol. All photos taken with the DNA just won't show up.
Anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks!

Google Plus sharing pictures from phone shared wrong picture...?

So I just installed google+ on the phone and tried sharing a specific picture from my phone....
The picture posted ended up being a freaking screen shot of an ESPN bookmark!! WTF?
Has anybody had this problem or is it just a freak accident? I am a lil scared of using it now as there are some crazy ass photos on my phone and I definitely do not want to even accidentally post them.
Maybe I can just put them in a .file but isn't that where they found the ESPN bookmark?
Unrooted... stock...

Delete your /sdcard/DCIM/.thumbnails folder so that it rebuilds. You should be able to verify this is the problem by opening gallery and noticing that the thumbnail of the image you *wanted* to post opens the image of what was actually sent. After you delete that folder and open gallery things should be corrected. It just sounds like the thumbnails may have gotten mixed up.
If that wasn't the problem, we'll go from there.

Ah... this may have solved the problem. Should have thought about that first. It's been awhile since i cleared the thumbnails.
K.... Another issue.
I turned on instant upload to upload all my pics to Picasa.
It ONLY found my fxcamera folder.... I have like 5 folders with pics in them. Anybody know how Google+ instant upload scans the SD card for pics?
EDIT: Solved...
Google+ instant upload looks like it scans in order of folders and uploads the first folder it finds with pics in it... (First time the first folder it found with pics was FXcamera Folder) for most people it would be DCIM. For now I moved all my pics into that folder (DCIM) but I will take them all out once it's done uploading (4G kills it!)
Then from there on it will instant upload anything that goes into DCIM...
just a FYI

[Q] gallery not showing some pictures

is there a known gallery bug in this phone?
I have a folder called frame in the root of my sd card. it has some pictures that I want to use with the htc photo album or photo grid widgets. gallery wont see those pictures. there isn't any .nomedia file. i've copy/pasted those files to a different folder that was showing in gallery. those pictures don't show as being in the folder! the pictures were recognized in my OG EVo and on my wife's Xoom. i've force stopped the gallery app, cleared its data, restarted the phone, shut down the phone. don't know what to do, no matter what i've tried, those pictures don't show in gallery!?!
any light you can shed on this would be appreciated!

i think you've done a good job of covering all the basic troubleshooting steps.
the only other idea i have, which is a bit more complex, is to watch logcat for output from the gallery app. once you wipe its data, when it loads up,it should show some output as it scans for files. maybe somewhere in the output it will give a hint as to why it detects some files and why it ignores your files.
unfortunately, i haven't heard anything about this yet and maybe there is a bug. maybe logcat and debug output from the gallery app will shed more light on the issue.
hope that helps! keep us updated.
well it turns out after enough rebooting it does update. i think it may be that whole new idea of fast booting, that it doesn't clear memory and reload the app from scratch. even though I had force stopped the app. now everything is showing, just not right away.

Photos being saved in thumbnails

Hello Forum,
I have an Evo 3D with viperROM_RC1.3 as my ROM. I am using the RC Mix kernel and it's been working out very well so far. I only have one question. I have tried a search and cannot seem to find the answer to this. My photos seem to be saving to the thumbnails folder located in the DCIM folder. Is there a reason why this is happening? I noticed this when I went into my gallery and saw tons of thumbnailish pictures mixed in with my photos. Quite a pain, especially since the thumbnailish pictures are being uploaded with my regular photos to my google plus account. Any idea as to why there being put into that folder? Thanks for reading.

[Q] Help! pictures not showing up in gallery

I have never had any problems with gallery not showing the pictures that I have recently added, but today it's not working properly. When I add new pictures, I cannot see them in the gallery. I am still able to see the old pictures in the gallery and I am able to see the new pictures only IF I use "My Files." I have tried a factory reset, but the problem still exists. Does anyone have any suggestions on what the problem might be?
Before anyone asks, I am running the stock 3.1 HC.
strongly suggest this app.... SO much better than the stock gallery

Thanks for the suggestion, but I still want to solve the actual problem and get the pictures to show on the gallery.
Try deleting all the data from /sdcard/Android/com.android.sec.gallery3d
And open the gallery again to rebuild the image cache.
This may work.
I have just checked gallery again and the new pictures are showing up now. This is very odd.... What could have caused the pictures to show up after a certain amount of time instead of showing up right after I transferred them to my tablet? Does anyone have an idea? (Thanks for the suggestions so far!)

Lost all my camera picture

Hello,
I gave my friend my phone to take some pictures and when I got it back I checked the camera folder in the Gallery and it had only the few picture that he took, now I'm sure that he didn't delete it because he don't know how to use it.
I restored a backup that I took it using Rom Manager but that didn't help, when I open the Gallery, I see my 350 old pics than the total camera pics reduced to 120 and than I only see the new pics that my friend took. (this happens if few seconds when the phone is loading pics)
I can't understand this issue, can you please help me?
Best regards
