Hi,
I am storing my all the camera pics to storage card. I have 8GB of storage card which is 4gb free. But my camera application showing that i have only 64 pics left (On the top right corner in camera app)
I dont understand as I still have 4 gb free space in Storage card then why camera app is only showing 64 pics space left.
Could anyone please help.
Thanks,
You can choose in the camera options if you want to store the pictures on the internal rom or on the memory card.
If you are already storing them on your SD but it is not showing correctly there is an update from HTC that fixes that problem try the HTC website for your area and see if you can fix it from there first
Hi,
So i have a rooted htc evo shift and the deal is whenever i take a picture i can go to my gallery and the picture will be there. However, in about 5 minutes or so, the picture no longer shows and instead there is a grey backround with a mountain , an exclamation point, and a sun image. This started happening randomly (or can't remember any instance where i changed something and then this happened...). Before i took pictures and they would save, and i still have some of those pictures, but not all as some of them changed to mountain exclamation things.
Also when i move these gray mountain files to my computer or use root explorer, the pictures don't load either.
Any ideas on what i can do to fix this?
could it be my sd card? (I did switch to a new one off ebay (bad idea), but I didn't start having the problem until maybe around 2-3 weeks after the switch)
Any way i can get back my old photos that have the gray mountain thingy?
Please help,
Thank you
Just an update on this. I removed some music to open up some memory to make it so i had more than 8gb free (possibly my card was only like 8gb even though marked 16, damn ebay. I also used the sd card program checker thing from another forum on xda and it said it had probelms)
So if u have this problem, it is probably sd related.
So anyways, now my pictures are storing again, but is there anything i can do to get my other pictures back? They were important/school related.

I have always used "gallery" to view pictures that I have stored on my external micro SD card. This new ATT galaxyS4 doesn't allow it. It only displays pictures that are stored on the internal SD card.
I got root and use an app called "root explorer" is the only way to view the pictures I have stored, which is ok but there is no slide show function in root explorer.
I postponed the update that came in over the airwaves, but it processed last night while asleep. I don't see any difference except it's not rooted anymore. Gallery is still limited to viewing only the onboard chip that's full of bloatware.
Does anyone else notice gallery not seeing the external SD?

Storage and reading of the external SD card for pictures works great for me.
One thing to note if you are having problems with the gallery, is to reformat the SDCard in the phone.
I was getting laggy gallery images, and a high battery drain from the Gallery.
Reformatting the SD card cleared up all my problems!
When you open gallery, hit menu and content to display. Make sure all is selected.

Is there anyway to save all downloaded pictures/screenshots to the SD card? I wiped my phone the other day and my downloaded pictures got deleted because it was in Internal Storage

You might have a corrupt photo.

If you use stock browser anything downloaded will go to external sd. Camera also asks you to save pictures on external sd when inserted, if not it can be changed in camera settings.

If you save a picture that was texted to me, it saves internally rather than on the SD card. Is there is anyway to fix this?

I stuck a different 32 gb class 10 microSD chip in the external memory slot and gallery started working finally.
So I assume the chip I've always used needs formatting sounds like.
Thank you for the feedback.
I have a similar issue as OP. I have a 64gb Sandisk SDXC, and it came straight over from the S3 and the S4 gallery didn't see my pix from the card either nor the music player see all my music. I have to format the card in the phone then copy everything over from pc to phone via usb for the gallery and music player to see what's on my ext card. Then the phone restarted by itself, and it says the sd card is damaged, then the OTA update came just in time, updated, amd magically the Sd card was fixed, now it only see select videos and images and still none of my music. If it's in the inter sd then it's fine.
Do you guys think my sd card is shot?

It sure sounds like it. My chip still works, all I did was use the computer to format it.
The only way to tell is get another chip and put some files on it for a test.
It ticks me off they don't even populate the external SD slot with a cheap chip like they used to. ATT phones used to come with a one or two gigabyte capacity bottom dollar chip for free but alas they got even more greedy!

I used foldermount and moved the DCIM folder to the external sd, so all the setting have it looking at the mounted folder on the internal card, even the burst shots are stored right onto the external. the longer I've had foldermount, the happier i am with it. endless possibilities!
I believe my issue for my gallery is a result of my sandisk microsd. I take pictures and I assume by default they are saved to the microsd because in the gallery I see a white icon on the bottom of the thumbnail.
This issue: I lose a good percentage of my pictures daily they show up black and corrupted. I assume there might be an issue with the microsd. But it stores all my docs and files that I've transferred from pc fine.
It's the pictures I take that randomly get corrupted.
I want my camera to save the pictures I take to the s5 ' internal memory not the microsd is this possible?
Thanks

Found it in the camera settings. Thanks. I searched online all day . And I didn't realize the camera app settings I could scroll.

Hey Guys,
I just received my S7 Edge Yesterday. I am using a 128GB Evo Sd card. Formatted it on the S7 edge.
I made some pictures with the phone. Storage : sd card.
I even looked in my galery and the pictures were oke.
After some hours i saw that some pictures were with half grey boxes and some had some crash-lookalike burns .
I formatted the sd card again. And still the same thing happens
Even did a camera reset and i did reset the S7 edge.
I dont know what the problem is. Need some help with this.
In the phone dialer type *#0*# and test the camera, including taking a photo. If the same happens again in there it's likely a hardware issue with the camera.

Have you tried a different memory card as well? The half gray is also a common problem with files writing to memory. It doesn't fully write, half they data is not there. I'd try another card too.

Might be bad sd card. Try save the picture to internal storage and see whether it did the same thing.

How I fixed greyed out photo
Bring greyed out photo from gallery. Select the little icon on upper right hand side and quickly pick the photo, quickly select Capture once. If you pick more than once you get another photo on your gallery. Refresh your gallery and look for your photo. If it's okay you can no delete the old photo. Thanks
I'm having this same issue. I just got a new S7 and transferred all my photos over on my SD card. There were a few random photos that were mostly grayed out with a little bar of the original photo showing. It happened again just now with a photo I took with the S7, though the gray bar was smaller and only covering the bottom of the photo. There appears to be no way of recovering the original photo - not very happy about that. I'll try using device storage for future photos.
I'm experiencing the same issue of arbitrary half gray photos on my S7, but usually after some time goes by after they're taken. I do think it's related to some read/write issue with my SD card but I haven't exactly nailed it down yet.
A workaround is to set your camera to save photos to your device, then sync your photos to a Google Drive folder by going to "Settings" within the Google Drive menu, and turn on "Auto Add". Additionally, if device storage is at a minimum, I then suggest deleting any locally stored copies of all photos once you're satisfied they've been backed up.
