Dear mate,
I have some problem.
I just upgrade to 4.2.2 by odin.
After finished, there's some problem.
When I download picture, the files is do not appear on gallery.
But in the file explorer do appear.
Also when I download some music, the songs are also do not appear on music player.
Plus, when I receive any photo from whatsapp, gallery doesn't auto create folder "whatsapp"
These are really confusing, because previously in 4.2.2 these never happen. When I download or receive any files, the files will be directly appear on gallery or music player.
Thanks in advance

Is there a file limitation on the SDcard?
Since I flashed the new Stock ROM, 3 to 5 minutes after booting the device, I get the message, that 'android.process.media' has stopped.
My guess is, that this process is looking for media files on the sdcard, and has a problem with my 40'000 .jpgs there.
Same, if I try to open the Album application, it starts scanning the sdcard for files, then Android closes the process 'com.htc.album' ...
This worked with the original shipping release, as the 40'000 .jpg files where already there ...
Is there a limitation in number of files (.jpg, .mp3, ...) or is it just a memory problem?
Hello,
Since this morning my phone doesn't see any media files. My sdcard is mounted and I can see all the files inside with a file manager. But when I open a media player it is telling me that there are no media files. Also in the ringtone menu I cannot see my custom ringtones which showed up fine until this morning. The same thing is happening in the gallery - no photos.
I tried restarting the phone - nothing happens. I have a program called rescan media, used it but still nothing. A have a nandroid backup from a week ago - I restored the backup, went into the default media player that comes with the stock rom, my albums were there, and then 2 minutes later i checked again - no music found. If I take a new picture with the camera and go to gallery I see only that new picture without my older ones, after a media rescan even this new photo disappears.

Check to see if you have a folder named ".nomedia" in your sdcard - this is used to control if a directory and it's subdirectories are visible in the media player.
Same for me,
Gallery dont found anything, but filemanager see everithing
I tried to change the SD, to un/reinstall gallery, update my CM7 rom, wipe cache but alwaysthe same problem...
When I use filemanager to open a picture, gallery load it in about 8seconds but cant see the other pics
Yes I had this .nomedia file in the root folder of my sdcard. I've read about this file and I know that it does that. But the most strange thing is I didn't create it It is dated from yesterday at 00:23. This has to be the work of some app.
Thank you for the help the problem is solved. And greetings from Bulgaria.
Unmount and mount again in the setting and hope it solve ur problem
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
thanks a lot
I un/re mounted SD in settings, and remouved the .nomedia file on sd root (don't know who created it....)
and my pictures are came back
thanks
I have a few questions re: the gallery that I'd love some help with.
1. Gallery doesn't update a folder if I move a picture using a file explorer (Astro or Root Explorer for example). If I reboot the phone then the picture shows up in the correct directory. I'm guessing that restarting the gallery app would do the same thing. Anyone else having this issue?
2. Is there a way to have the gallery only look to one location for pics? I hate how it always grabs every image on my SD Card. Especially if you have Bejeweled installed. It adds about 10 folders of images that I don't want to have to browse through. Is there another gallery app that would allow me to set this if the stock gallery doesn't work that way?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Also noticing that the Gallery just doesn't update frequently. I thought it did this every time you opened it, but I guess not. Is there a way to force programs to re-scan the SD card?
SDRescan in the market works perfectly... and if you want to keep the folder from being seen in the gallery, just add a blank text file to the folder and rename it .nomedia
Thanks odrecords. Both of those work perfectly.
stock gallery will grab images from any folder on your SD if you don't want your gallery to load em theres two ways when in gallery hit menu then show hide. this will do as it says and either load or not load certain folders. Other option is to place a period in front of the folder name u want hidden i.e. ".test". This will hide it from the Android system in general but not file explorers.
Hey guys, I am chinese, not very good english, so I try to explain my problem finely to understand.
my s4 device storage is16G(auctualy only have 8.69G can be used), And I have a 64G SD card. Now, when i take a picture, the picture is saved in SD card, that is very good, that is what I want. But if I move the pictures to a Album, then the pics are saved in my Device storage. that is not what I want. I want when I moved the pic to Album, the pics still are saved in SD Card. How can I fix this problems guys?
Do you guys understand what I mean and what I want? I am not sure if you guys got my piont. anyway, thanks a lot.
Yes. I understand.
However, the stock gallery that came with the phone creates Albums in "/storage/sdcard0/Pictures/" which is in your device.
After you moved pictures to a new Album using the stock Gallery app,
Open "My Files" or any File browser (ES File Explorer), navigate to "/storage/sdcard0/Pictures/", move the Album you've created to "/storage/extSdCard/".
Gallery will automatically update the new location.

My stock music player is not detecting music that I add to a folder I made called 'Music'. I'm wondering if the mediascanner is not working properly? I can see music files on my cloud services while using the music player...just not any files on my device. I can play the file if I go into File Manager and start it from there. My file manager will not detect said music files under the Music Tab either though (it does shows ringtones I downloaded from Zedge).
I recently removed a .nomedia file but I'm not sure if this has any impact on this matter?
