So I installed Cyanogen's 6.1 RC1 ROM the other day and now my Gallery is all messed up. When viewing the gallery it shows the pictures, but I see multiple "Camera" pictures showing up in the "Download" folder?
Now here's the thing though, when i view these pictures in the download folder at first the look like a certain picture - but when you actually select the picture to view it turns out to be a totally different picture?! WTF!?
Anyone else having this issue? I need to resolve it ASAP... I tried going back to the stock ROM but i'm still having the same issue with the Gallery. HELP!
Report the issue so it can be logged in the cyanogen thread.

Hhmmm I installed Paul's ROM today and it looks like it resolved the issue... I even reverted back to the stock ROM and the Gallery was all good!
I'm just glad to have my Gallery up and working again, but thanks for the suggestion bro!
Nevermind my Gallery is stilled messed up, what the hell is goin on here!?

Ok so my g/f snapped like 6 pictures at an event she attended yesterday on her droid 2. She came home complaining the pictures weren't appearing in the gallery. I figured it was user error since she's new to the droid thing. I checked out the gallery and sure enough there was 6 gray squares in the place of the pictures. I rebooted and they were gone. Is this something that i should get a replacement over or what. I snapped a pic after the reboot and it was fine but i don't want her to have to wonder if the picture came out. There's also been a problem after she takes a pic it not appearing in the gallery right away. Just seems buggy any help or suggestions are appreciated.

I had a similar problem, but I think it's distinct.
I discovered that deleting the photos through the file app (without a special file manager installed) doesn't instantly delete the thumbnails in the photo gallery, so it will act as if the photos are still there, and if you take new photos before it regenerates its thumbnail cache (or whatever it actually does), the new photos will error for a while too, until it straightens out once and for all which photos really exist and which don't.
Curiously, I too came across the error taking pictures of a chick's ass. Maybe there's a link here.
There is a problem where the gallery doesn't refresh. I heard that it will refresh within a few hours on its own or you have to reboot in order to see new pics in the gallery.
SDrescan from the market is a workaround. It rescans the SD card which refreshes the gallery.
One problem that I have with my Nexus is the gallery.
After taking pictures,
and I attempt to delete a picture or two, or how many ever,
it deletes and I have confirmed it, however, when I close gallery,
and go back into gallery, the pictures are still there..
Anyone having similar problem?
It happened in 2.3, and even after update, its still happening.
Yes, I just noticed this tonight. It was fine before the update.
mine happened in 2.3, and I was hoping that 2.3.1 or
the next OTA would fix it, but 2.3.1 is now doing the same thing.
Glad to know that I'm not the only one who's going through this
issue... (I don't mean this in a bad way. )
No issues here, I have 2.3.1 and have been deleting lots of test pictures and they don't come back.

I seriously wonder what the problem is..
its kind of irritating me..
It happened to me before the update. Also if I selected a picture it would show a different pic from a different album. Email pic attachments downloaded clear the next day I checked it and all my downloads were blurry. I downloaded the picture again and went to the gallery and they were all clear again. Weird

Can anyone else confirm this?
Dead picture of rat that I took nearby my house, on the
first day when I got NS is still on there, and won't delete.
I am running into an issue with Neutrino 2.2. Pictures I take with my camera are 'cropped' when I view them with the gallery app. If I 'zoom out' and hold it I can see the entire picture, but if I let go, it zooms back into a cropped view. Note that pictures that I have downloaded to the phone work normally. It's just pictures that I take with the phones camera.
Has anyone else seen this?
If I remember correctly I also saw this with Neutrino 2.1p
Thanks!
Have you tried rebooting the phone? I've noticed this on just about every CM7 ROM I've used and came across the same issue. I don't think it's a problem with Neutrino's ROM, but more with the Gallery3D.apk that is being used. I'm currently using Wet Dream and I pulled Gallery3D.apk from the CM7 weekly 6 and pushed it to system/app with the same effect you described. Worked perfectly after a reboot.
I don't know what is going on with my gallery but it's really weird. A little back story. I was originally rooted and running 4.2.2 stock but I then I saw that 4.3 was out so I used the nexus root toolkit to go back to stock, reset, apply 4.3 update, and then re-root. I also used the picture backup utility in the toolkit to backup my photos, but it didn't work and none of them were restored. After I was on 4.3, I installed the CM camera app, focal. However, when I took pictures with the app and went into my gallery and scrolled to the picture I just took it would show the picture briefly and then do a pixelated transition into one of my old pictures and the new pic was nowhere to be seen. I uninstalled the app and haven't had a problem since. Up until today. I tried to download a picture off of Google images and when I go into my gallery to see it, it isn't there. Instead, there is a picture from my gallery pre factory reset and flash of 4.3. It's almost like the pictures I'm downloading are being replaced by the ones I tried to backup and restore. When I finally got a Google image to download and save to my gallery, I'll scroll over to it and it will do the weird pixel transition into an old picture I had before I wiped. Anyone know what's happening? Or even what I'm trying to say? Thanks for any help.
try clear data and cache of gallery and camera and check again

After wiping the cache, I tried to go to gallery and got a message saying "no external storage." Rebooted and everything is working awesome. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
A lot of us get that error after clearing cache. A simple reboot takes care of that

Hi I deleted the stock android photo gallery app because it was annoying me with repeated sign in attempts to picassa.
However now i can't attach photos to a text message or review a photo i just took when in camera.
How can I reinstall the factory photo gallery for the Samsung s5?
Thanks!!

are you talking about Touchwiz camera or AOSP camera? The picasa sign in notifications are from Google+ app, remove/freeze that.
It was the stock photo gallery app with the Samsung S5 SM G900 FD.
It's just called photo gallery. I erased it and replaced it with a different photo app. Now i lost some functions like attaching photos from a text. I need to know how to reinstall it?
Any ideas?

Correct me if I'm wrong but what you're saying is that you have not flashed any custom roms, haven't rooted and yet managed to delete the stock gallery app?
If that is correct go to settings>apps>app manager find your new photo app and click reset/delete defaults
I did root the phone which is why i was able to delete the stock photo app

Ok. Download stock rom, extract camera app from there. If you have CWM/TWRP backups extract camera app from them with winrar or your favourite archiver. It should also work if you download any touchwiz based rom and extract the camera app from there.:good:
Thank you! ! You wouldn't happen to have a link to the stock rom would you?
I didn't back it up with cwm because i was so annoyed by the constant sign in attempts that i thought there's no way i would ever want it back lol! I'm pretty new to this whole thing of tampering with system files and definitely not a guy who knows much about computers so as much info as possible is very much appreciated! !
Thanks! !

That sign in prompt is Google+ afaik not camera app. Anyway here's a link to a touchwiz rom for your phone, download it and extract the camera/gallery/photo app from there. Next time remember to always make a backup in recovery, you never know when you might need it :silly: :good:
Great thanks a lot! !?
Strange thing i extracted the system rom from that link you gave me. I can't find the photo gallery app anywhere in it. Can find everything else but that, any ideas where it might be hiding?

OK I found it, it worked, everything back to normal! I used the search tool and it came right up. Thanks again for the help, it sure is interesting to play around with these gadgets! Amazing to see the sheer volume of information that goes into programming one of these things when you actually get to physically see the programming. A world few people will ever get to see.
