When going into Applications => Gallery => Camera Shots, new pictures I took with the camera do not appear there.
Using Astro, I can see that the new pictures I took all appear in /mnt/sdcard/DCIM/100MEDIA, and this directory also contains the pictures that DO appear in the gallery.
Phone is DZ Froyo 2.2 stock, and this could have started after the OTA upgrade, not really sure though...
I just took another picture now in order to verify the problem, and for some reason it DOES appear in the Gallery, however pictures from the last week do not appear there (they are in the 100MEDIA directory like I mentioned).
Any ideas?
It's a gallery cache issue. The stock gallery app just sucks, a simple reboot fixes it, but I know it's a pain in the
As omarsalmin wrote it is a cache issue. Instead of rebooting, use a app to reload the cache. Eg Rescan w w w.appbrain.com/app/rescan-media/com.addz.mediascanner.
Had the very same issue the other day. It's really strange and affects more than the stock gallery. Both it, the Nexus one and SugarSync had the same problem. So I assume the problem has more to do with Android/HTC than the specific app.
Thanks! I must've missed other posts about this because the same thing happens to me, and I was thinking there was a problem with my microSDHC card. So rooting and installing a new ROM will probably fix this right? Thinking about going to Virtuous.
I had the same problem the other day with my recent pictures and videos. it didn't even show the video folder. I rebooted and it fixed the issue.
Thanks for the advice mullepol, I'm going to install the application you suggested
Thanks guys, the pictures actually came back before I had a chance to check this thread, but they were kind of messed up order-wise. after installing Rescan it seems to be better.
I'm hoping someone can help me.
For no explainable reason on my part, all my photos have disappeared. I can not see any photos in gallery or Google photos. I can however located photos that I took with my camera in DCIM Folder, however these don't show up in either photo app. I have tried restating and clearing gallery cache etc I have even tried restoring using smart switch to an earlier backup however the problem still exists.
Any clues what's going on?
Update: for some odd reason my phone was filled with ".nomedia" files. I deleted them all, restarted my phone and ran an app called "Media Re.Scan" and they magically reappeared. However only camera photos have reappeared. Other media has not, but I'm not sure they were visible to begin with. I would really appreciate if someone has a theory for this.
Update 2: Don't delete all .nomedia files as this will cause all jpeg files to show up in your gallery including system files and apps etc that have images. Instead only delete .nomedia files found in your photos folder and folders you want to appear in gallery etc. Make sure show hidden files is selected to find these files in the first place. I used ES file Explorer Pro.

Thanks. problem solved!
seeing the same problem in s8
i just got samsung s8 recently. i am new to the samsung phone but i am seeing the exact same problem. i see pictures i took from earlier today and a few fays ago just magically disapper. I have tried multiple things like deleting the cache, data, using quick pro, cut and paste the dscim in a new folder, deleting the .nomedia but i CANNOT make those missing pictures reappear anywhere. Anyone else who ran into this and maybe have fixed the problem?
I'm having the same problem on my S8...taking new pics & downloading pics/gifs then they disappear out of nowhere the next day or so. Just started happening after the last software update (4/3/18). Not sure why or how to recover them. I've had my phone since April 2017 & it's never done this before.
Photos corrupted
Hi guys,
sorry for resuming this post.
Happened this summer and never before on my SM-G935F ITV smartphone, never rooted and stock rom (Android 8).
I loose all the latest photos, or better they are on the card but the thumbnails are grey, I tried to open them with an hex editor and I discovered they are all filled by 0x0.
I used to save them directly on a SD from Huawei 256Gb, scanned and works perfectly.
The only dubt I have is the number of photos saved into the dcim folder, they are over 2048...magic number!
Once I moved the photos in another folder I can take the photos again as usual...
It's just to know if I discovered a bug or what...
Any one with this issue?
Thanks, Pier
I was on holiday for 3 weeks and using s10+ to take a lot of photo but just before the holiday finish I find that all the photo taken before June are all gone. All I have left with are the photos taking since June 1st. I look at the recycle bin but there is nothing. Also tried unmount and remount the sd card but it doesn't help either.
There are some other reports on the internet for the same issue. I am just wondering does anyone here has a clue on how to get the missing photo back?
Just a thought but check your Google photos if they are there perhaps? Google photos sometimes deletes pics from your phone after uploading them to the cloud.
I am having my Moto G5 Plus running on android 10 Havoc OS 3.0 with an Google camera apk Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_BF.
Whenever i click photos with the portrait mode in Gcam app the photos were shown in gallery after their processing is completed, but after some time all of the photos are automatically gone. I have tried to find these photos everywhere in the phone and SD cards memory but, i haven't found it anywhere. This has happened 3-4 times with me and i have lost many important photos.
Can anyone suggest me anything to do, can anyone provide me the solution for this problem.
I have a question regarding gcam
Is there a bug or error that causes pictures taken to be deleted randomly?
Today I took a lot of pictures and for each one taken I viewed in Google photos immediately after being shot . When I returned home , I found that alot of the pictures suddenly disappeared. Let's say around 20 pictures. Tried looking in trash and restarting the phone but to no avail .
Is this a problem in gcam itself?
