So I am having an issue with photos on my phone. Whether its a screen shot, a camera photo, etc. I have issues with the file getting corrupted and just not opening. This has happened a few times when saving directly to the SD card, so I switched the camera storage location to the phone itself and it still seems to be happening. Anyone else experience this? Is there another setting somewhere that I have not discovered?

Does anyone else experience a force close of the Gallery when they attempt to add a photo to an album? I.E - Gallery.. Pick a picture.. Menu.. Add to album.
Thanks,
Rick
I am having force close issues and problems saving pictures when I was saving to my SD card. I switched to internal storage and everything is now fixed.

Could it be the sd Card? What card do you have?

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I am having this issue. Has anyone found a fix?
I have tried, moving pics over to internal storage, formatting sd card and moving back, and even taking a new picture. So far no luck
I never found a fix, and MR5 did not appear to fix the problem either.. This happens if my photos are stored on internal memory, or on a card..
guess I will hit the motor phoroms in the morning. Thanks for the update.
Just wanted to update this. I also ran into the issue of not being able to record videos as well, or them being deleted if it did record.
A few hard resets later and i found a work around. Hard reset and clear cache, and only add your google account. then open the camera and set up the sd card etc. then go into gallery and add a pic and make an album. After that is should work. I am not sure if it the camera not searching the sd card or adding facebook that causes it, but this is what has worked for me on 3 occasions now.
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.
i can't seem to record any video. camera app is working fine but whenever i switch to camcorder, it acts like it's recording but when i go to gallery, it's saying file cannot be displayed or played. when i try to play those files on a pc, it says it's not a video file/file corrupted.
has anyone experienced this?
I haven't. And I just used mine a couple days ago. Now this may also be silly but have you tried using the camcorder app? Rather than switching to video mode in the camera app. (I really don't think that will make a difference but worth a shot)
Are you recording to Internal storage? If so then you shouldn't have a problem, but if your recording to ext-sd then maybe your SD card is malfunctioning. I'd try a factory data reset if your recording to Internal Storage, and a new SD card otherwise.
If it is an SD card issue, there is a couple things he could do before replacing it, such as unmount/remount, and if that doesn't work, back up his data and wipe it. Then if neither of those work, get a new SD card.
A buddy had a similar issue with music, had to unmount then remount the card to get the phone to access the music on it. That worked. So.
I had a similiar issue, factory reset did not fix it, nor did a reflash of the latest sbf. Here is what finally did:
1) Reflash or hard reset stock rom
2) Only set up initial email
3) open the camera/camcorder (should prompt you for storage location)
4) open gallery
5) finish set up of everything else
I had the exact same problem where they would not show up or show up corrupted. I also had an issue trying to put pics into an album though the stock app (would force close).
Good luck and post back with your results.
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!)
I took some pictures with my LG V10 over the last 24 hours to test the camera out. I am able to preview the picture once it has been taken. Today I went to show some friends the pics I took and they are showing as either unsupported or they are not listed in the Camera or DCIM folder using ES File Explorer. I went checked my Google Photos and the pictures are there and they are showing fine.
I decided to take another picture a minute ago and check my LG Gallery on my V10 and the pic was there briefly and then it disappeared but it appeared in my Google Photos gallery. I have a 128GB micro SD card that has 125GB of free space so I know it is not a space issue.
I have reformatted the Micro SD card and the photos are either showing up as an unsupported format or it is missing. I just took a picture and saved it to the V10 and not the SD card and the pictures are still in my Gallery. My mind is blown right now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is anyone else having the same issue or is it just me?
Exactly the same thing here.
I have had my LGv10 for about 5 days now. I absolutely love it. But some pictures I took that I was rather proud of are nowhere to be found in the Galllery app. Fortunately, I shared them on Facebook, where I was able to download them.

Not mindblowing at all. You have a defective microSD card. Replace it.
I have had the same problems with no sdcard installed.
I do not use a Micro SD in my V10 and I have this issue. I'll take a picture with the back camera, it will appear in the preview circle in the bottom right corner, then in a split second dissappear. I do not have this issue with pictures from my front camera.
Ive never experienced this....by chance has anyone clicked on the menu in the gallery to show locked files? Maybe somehow they were locked after taking the photo? This is the only thing i can think of. Hope it helps any
Also check google picture settings. There is one that will "free" up phone space after it has backup the picture to google.
I found same issue on my V10 and found they were saving to my Verizon media and update of the app made all photos go there in my internal storage.
