This has been happening for quite some time now.
When I open the Gallery, it can take up to ~5 seconds for the album thumbnail to load. I can't access pictures until then.
I have my images stored on SD card.
Anyone know if there is a workaround to eliminate this annoying lag?
I am currently not rooted (happened when I was though), on the recent 4.1.2 OTA update.
Thanks!

I just copied over my Camera directory from my Galaxy Nexus to my new N4, but when I view the Gallery on the N4, the thumbnails are grouped with all videos first, then images after. Newly taken images show up before the videos in the first slots as normal. I also tried to empty the Gallery cache and rebooted, but they are still grouped this way.
Is this just how the N4 Gallery works now? Kind of annoying to have to scroll through all of my videos to see my older pictures. Everything should just be chronological like it was on the Galaxy Nexus. My view is set to the default grid view if that matters.
Anyone else seeing this issue?
ok, I think I figured it out. For some reason I am unable to connect my GNex to my Mac using the Android File Transfer app, so I used Airdroid instead to zip the /Camera directory and download it to my Mac instead. I think Airdroid changed the timestamp on the files in doing so, and since the videos took longer to compress/download, they got stamped with the most recent timestamp.
I think the custom ROM (Liquid 412 rc7) is preventing me from connecting to my Mac normally. Looks like I have some digging to do!
Hmm, I connected to my Windows laptop and was able to copy the /Camera from the GNex fine, then back to my N4 /Camera, rebuilt the cache and still have the videos all displayed first!
Anyone else have this problem? Or know of a way to get the Gallery to list the thumbnails of images and videos based on creation date?
TIA.
I have the Verizon variant of the LG G2. Whenever I download an image from Chrome, the image does not immediately appear in my Downloads album. I tried the Rescan Media app and it seemed to work once but then didnt seem to help after a few images. I've downloaded pictures from whatsapp and the reddit is fun app and they appear instantly in my gallery. My friend who also got this phone is seeing the same issue.
Are you guys seeing this too? Is there a fix?
Thanks
Edit: Okay after restarting the phone, Rescan Media works everytime to get my gallery updated. But I'm pretty sure this needs to be fixed by LG.
I'm on AT&T and I have had this problem too. After downloading, the picture takes a couple of minutes to appear on the gallery. I have downloaded a third party Gallery app from Play store and it works fine.
This should be fixed in the next update.
So, for whatever reason whenever I go into my gallery it just seems as though my phone refuses to load GIF images or just refuse to load the pictures Into their full resolution. Any fix for this?

I use quickpic for gallery and photos for cloud backup. Can't speak on gif functionality, but its worth a shot imo.
I was just about to make a thread of a similar problem I'm having... My gallery sometimes completely fails to load any album thumbnails and names, but you can enter the albums (everything is still lacking thumbnails). It's very aggravating and it causes Documents to crash often.
whenever I try to open a freshly taken picture from within the camera app. I can open the gallery app just fine though but I am unable to delete photos with it.
... I wiped my phone half a dozen times already and this always happens after using the phone for a while. Tried safe mode and it still didn't work. What is happening?
When I use Open Camera as my Camera and QuickPic as gallery everything works just fine. I even can delete the photos I've taken within QuickPic.
Also Google Play Music is unable to play any music that is on my SD card. It just skips the track and eventually crashes. But when I use Rocket Player everything works just fine.
This behavior started just recently, after I did a software update I guess... Bought The phone in November
Phone: Galaxy S8, SM-G950FD, UNROOTED Software version: Nougat, Phone says, I'm on the latest version. When I hit software update this is what I get: G950FXXU1AQL5 / G950FOXM1AQL5 / G950FXXU1AQL5 Gallery version: 5.3.05.301 Camera version: 7.1.10
ALMOST FORGOT: Instead of the most recent picture thumbnail next to the shutter button this appears:

Edit: lol I can't even change my wallpaper because of this stupid Gallery App...
Edit 2: Google Play Music is able to play my local sd card files again - let's see how long that lasts...
Edit 3: When launching the camera from lockscreen I can access the gallery just fine... strange things are happening here
Hi, whenever I try to sort out pictures in the Samsung gallery app they seem to disappear. It assists to happen every time I do it. All I want is to sort out albums. I'm not rooted. Picture attached shows what happens to the file when I move it. All files I'm moving are from internal storage
