[Q] No photos and videos in gallery. Missing music - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

Hi, I'm running Android Revolution 22.1. A few days ago, my photos and music just disappeared from the gallery and music app. I did not install anything or change anything. I cleared the app cache, dalvik cache, and every single cache that has ever existed. My photos and music are still on the sdcard because I can access them using root explorer. Somehow they don't show up in the gallery/music app. I have no idea what happened. I read about finding a .nomedia file in /sdcard, but I can't find it, so I'm guessing thats not the problem. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this?

Try to do a wipe cache partiton in Recovery Mode then go to advanced and do wype dalvik cache. Then reboot (you won't loose anything)
If not enough : in parameters > Applications > manage applications > Gallery, appshare : delete files and clear cache (you won't loose anything).
And say us if it's better now
Thank You for an answer. I just try all of this that You write about and nothing changed. I dont know is it important but every time I turn on my phone i have a monit 'process android.phone.com force close' twice and there is no signal on my phone but after a minut signal back to normal. Maybe i should just try to format partition in recovery mode?
I had very similar problem that's how I stumbled into this thread. I could solve my headache as I just had to remember that I had disabled "media scanner", therefore no pictures and videos will be loaded to the gallery!
Please make sure that you have not disabled "media scanner"

[Q] Deleting photos

I deleted some pics that I had taken with my GT10.1. Although they are no longer viewable, they still appear in my Gallery, in the thumbnail screen. How do I remove they deleted pics permanently? It may get me in trouble one day!
i know, i got this prob some times.
try this: delete all cache files u find at sdcard/android/data/com.android.sec.gallery3d/cache then reopen the gallery app
a good idea is to get a cache cleaner from the market to clear all cache files in one go

media battery drain

Hello, i was wondering if anyone knows what could be draining my battery. I cant find it? It says media is using 44% and i have no idea why.
Heres whats listed in the battery usage:
oma download
download manager
media sync
gallery
com.motorola.photowidget
drm protected content storage
downloads
purchased media
media storage
It just started in the last day or so
Thanks!
Had the same problem, fixed it by clearing data for Media Storage
thanks, i think it was something to do with my gallery cuz it was froze, maybe trying to send something with no wifi on? It seems to be ok now.
maybe a fix
i had the same problem after wipe clean and fresh install of JB.
I dont know exactly what solved it but here is what i did:
1. disable media store
2. clear media store data
2.5 executed playerpro application while media store is disabled
3. deleted all .nomedia files i could find
4. deleted the Player Pro album art directory content.
5. deleted all image caches of all applications i could find
6. enabled media store

new photo thumbnails messed up

anybody else got this problem? when I take a new photo then go to the gallery the thumbnail is nothing like the picture and looks like a mega zoomed in blurred image of some sort, if I open it the correct image loads ok, any fixes? can I delete the thumbnail cache to force it to rebuild them and if so how?
Go to Settings, Applications, All Apps, search the app called media, and then clear it's data, foce cloase it and restart phone. All should be working then.
Thanks,
Rick

the best way is to install SD Maid from Play Store....it has an option to delete all thumbnails in gallery and much more....combine it with Recan Media Root (also from Play Store) to scan and rebuilt back your gallery....
did what was suggested above but it didnt work so I installed a different gallery (im using quickpic) and it worked fine so seems its a problem with quickpic

phone stopped media scanning

not sure what happened but now my phone won't recognize my ringtones or notifications or my pictures in gallery. just happened out of the blue and not sure why. all the files are still there so thats not the problem. I'm on stock rooted now. any ideas? i tried wiping, clearing cache, etc...
on a side note this happened with my pictures first, then i tried to delete media storage to see if that fixed and thats what deleted my ringtones.
