I have checked that I have I images on sd using file manager, but it tells me I have no images in gallery.
Previously it showed images in the gallery but now it doesn't.

coonect your phone via usb to pc and then use it as a mass storage . after that unplug the hd2 (safely removing) and see if it is resolved. you can also download media rescan from the market which might help!
Or you can go to settings-->apps-->Gallery or however it is called and clear data. Works for me..

so is there a way to read the files i have added after i connect my phone to pc as "hard disk " to transfer files ?
every time i add a file, i have to restart the andriod "phone" for it to see it.
if i try to remove the SD card while andriod is running. it will hang and i will have to restart.
is there some other things that can be done? like. media scanner for example.. will it work ?
thanks
Have you tried unmounting and then mounting the SD card? I don't know if it works or not, but it's worth a try.

Which build you are using?!?
In my build all i have to do is clicking "enable usb storage card" when plugging in pc! Then "safe remove" on pc, click "disable usb storage card" and everything works again!!!
Weird!

Use drop box app. Host your own files online and download them directly to your phone.
bangsters 1.5 supports usb mass storage
I'm only guessing, but it sounds to me that he's talking about apps like music and the gallery. They need to be refreshed somehow when you copy new images or audio files, and I've tried and can confirm that unmounting and then mounting does this.

Use swiftp to transfer files to your sdcard then you will be able to access them without reboot.

I am using Droid Explorer to place all the files on my phone.
Works like a charm No reboot needed, only the unmount-mount SDcard option afterwards.
Have a look at this - it may be just what you're looking for ...

(That's a market link - you'll need to open it on your phone, or search for SD Reload on the market)

there's an exact copy on the market called gallery ics
I have my Fascinate backed up with Titanium Backup. There are a couple apps that are backed up that are no longer on the market. One is the ESPN Mobile app. How would I go about getting the app from my fascinate onto my Nexus 7? Thanks.
Anyone?
Restore the app to your SD card, plug into PC via USB mass storage, copy it to your desktop, plug in nexus 7 and transfer. May need root explore to install it and set permissions.

One of my questions is an issue Im having. Whenever I plug my phone into my computer (Win7) the folders on storage dont update, e.i. no new pictures show, no backups, or anything Ive deleted from the phone doesnt show the changes on the computer. If i delete a file from the phone, it will still show as there on the computer if I plug it in later. I have tried reinstalling drivers, and formatting the sdcard in recovery. Has anyone else had this problem?
Also, a real quick brief noob question, with my 8gb after formatting I only get 4.6, is that what everyone else is getting? or do my apps take up he other gb of the 5.6?
This failing is because of the crappy method of mounting that is used. MTP
I often get the same thing happen when attempting to backup sdcard contents. There is nothing worse than backing up, wiping then realising that your backup didn't actually backup the whole contents
I just use adb to backup now but for your case the easiest way to get mtp to update the contents is to just reboot the phone then plug it back in and it should be updated properly

How did you format your phone? If you used a custom recovery that's because it doesn't delete your SD Card contents, so all of your photos and stuff.

What he is describing is a bug with mtp. Formatting his sdcard is just one of the things he has done to try and resolve the issue.
I can describe a scenario of the exact issue the op is having.
You take a photo
Plug to pc and copy that photo
Unplug phone
Decide you don't like that photo so delete it on the phone
Take a replacement photo
Plug to pc again
Goto dcim directory and it still shows the filename of the original photo
Your new photo is not there
You cannot do anything to the photo that it's listed in the directory because it doesn't exist
You can't copy your new photo because it's not in the list to copy
The New photo is definitely there because you can access it on the phone, just not via mtp
Reboot your phone
Plug back to pc
Goto dcim folder and the old photo is gone and there is only your new photo (as it should be)
I get this issue very often and rebooting the phone is the only thing that brings mtp back into line

You should download 'Trickster Mod Kernel Settings' and use the 'Media Scanner' function. That also does the trick.
Hi All,
Have a strange problem that i just cant seem to solve. When i plug with Nexus 4 into PC all my files appear but not correctly. I have attached a picture. As you can see all folders are just a white icon which do nothing. Files are accessible on phone and through Airdroid to PC just fine, but i cannot get to my files through USB connection.
I have tried multiple PCs and data cables, i have reinstalled all drivers, i have rescanned media library , booted into safe mode also, fixed file permissoin via TWRP, cleared data from Media Storage App all to no avail
Running stock rooted kitkat 4.4.2
Any suggestions
Regards,
fabsy
