Prior to this update I could access the camera folder from the Camera app, but now when I do that I access EVERY PICTURE on the device, not only the Camera folder. Is there anything I can do to fix this, it's a pain in the ass.

... problem exactly as stated above. Sometimes I will take a picture with the camera and it doesn't show up in the photo gallery until I restart the phone.
Anyone else have a problem with this? Has anyone figured out a way to fix it without restarting?
Yeah I'm having these issue as well and also happens with picture downloads. they wont show in the gallery until after a few reboots at times as well. or sure what's going on with that.
a quick fix, so you dont have to reboot your phone is to kill gallery with a task manager, and open it up again.
ok guys i'm had that same issue now my gallery is gone altogether....my gallery will load but it says loading images...then it says there is no content to be read...i down load an app from the market and it not seeing my sd card either...but if i go in file explore i can see everything on my card....i done a hard reset like three time no luck please help....htc said may have to send the phone back...i think its to small of an issue to lose my phone for a week or more...it maybe a simple fix so i will try this first before...ty for any help someone can offer
oh yeah if i take a new pic it will show up in the gallery but when i reboot its gone....
ok guys i fixed....what i did was took everything off my sd card....re formated...turn the phone off for like 5 min....then back on....put every thing back on the card check the music player and gallery to see if they worked and everything was there....then i rebooted to see if everything would disappear so far i'm good to go i have all my pics and files back....only thing on the first gallery load up be patient it take a min to load the sd card it will flash loading...but after that im good to go...i'm by a new sd card i think that may have been the issue....
It happens to me too. I unmount and remount the sdcard, and the Gallery finds everything.
I find if i go into the camera app, the latest photo is there in the preview box. if i open it, and then go back to the gallery app, it (usually) appears. but yes, annoying bug really.

oddly, i never had this problem until just a second ago, but what this guy said is exactly how i got around it too. i took a photo, task killed camera, went to gallery, no photo, reopened camera, photo was in preview, clicked on it, went to gallery from there, and there it was, ready to share.
it's gotta be a bug of some kind. perhaps the most recent photo isn't loaded to gallery until another photo is taken, or you click preview box. stupid, but possible.
Problem Solved
Hi friends, I encountered the problem as well today and found the solution: Go to the sdcard and search folders for a file named .nomedia and delete it should solve the problem. No need to format or things like that worked fine for me. seems some kind of bug
.nomedia is a file designed to hide directories from being searched by Android Media Scan (which includes Gallery). There is absolutely no reason to delete it, and it's not a bug.
However, there is a bug in Media Scan, which sometimes causes Gallery to "miss" pictures. Executing Media Rescan (from "Development") solves it, or as stated above, just unmounting and mounting the SD card.
There's no Media Rescan in Development on my gb 2.3.3.
I've experienced something similar. I've been running the various CM7 builds and whenever I'd take a pic and immediately share it on Facebook, the pic will never be seen again.
Since then, I've gotten in the habit of hitting up Sugarsync first to sync the new pics, the send it up to Facebook via the gallery.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
stock 2.3.3 and i had the problem today.
force quit gallery and it was back to normal.
why is 2.3.3 so buggy!?
The new Liberty ROM made some changes to my camera that I don't like. My pics aren't full screen as they were before and I don't have options to choose from for my video camera (i.e. concert mode, night mode, etc). Does anyone know how/if I can the old camera back? If not, is there another camera app or something I could download?

Go into your apps,
There should be a app called Liberty Toolbox,
Go to app management at the top,
Go to install Add-ons,
Scroll down and click Camera [blur],
Also if you want the blur fm radio, it's in there too.
and that is all to get the old camera app back with the full screen.
It's simple, really.
Go to the Liberty Toolbox app ->App Management -> Install addons -> Camera [blur]
Click on that and it will install automatically.
I did all of that and now my camera won't even open...
Did you try rebooting?
I ran into the same problem. I ended up having to use root explorer to change the permissions of the downloaded blur camera apk, then it installed fine.
ya tried that didnt install then i started getting force close on email and something else so i use apkinstaller went to liberty folder /downloads and installed it still have the FC for the email how do i fixs
thanks for the info i like my blur camera better as well
I tried using root explorer and apkinstaller - neither one of them worked. Is there anything else I can do?
I have found problems with both the blur cam and AOSP cam under Liberty 1.5
The blur cam seems to create currupted videos if they are longer than a few seconds.
The AOSP cam will occasionally complain about needing an SD card installed before it will take a picture. I can to reboot to make this problem go away temporarily but it's annoying when I need to take a pic right away. I do have a 32GB Sandisk class 4 card instead of stock so it's possible that's the root cause, I gotta go back to stock ROM and see if that fixes things.
I use my cam to document everything in my life including store receipts, meeting whiteboards, contracts, etc. I also like to record vids when my kids are doing the goofy little things that they do so this is quickly becoming a deal-killer for me.
EDIT: or maybe I will try some alternative camera apps. That would be easier than changing ROMs
EDIT2: Looks like the AOSP Cam problem was something else. It seems that Android will remount the SDCard read-only if it encounters an error. I removed the card and did a full file scan. There might be a way to remount it so that errors do not result in read-only-remounting. It's probably an option of the mount command. That could be dangerous so I will only investigate that route if this gets annoying.
Recently my camera app randomly stop saving photos.
It shows and act like photo is saved, but when click on thumbnail in camera app, fails to load the photo, infact, photo never saved.
so basically:
IF I choose SD Card as storage, I will see an error saying failed to save into SD Card, changing to device storage ( however image is not in device storage too )
IF I choose Device as storage, It will act like everything went smoothly and successfully, but when I try to open photo, it fails.
This problem come and go away randomly, making it harder to fix. I have lost many valuable photos because I thought it saved them successfully.
I figured out that I can have my photo saved in my device, If I press power+home button, to take screenshot, but that will include camera controls as well!
Recently installed a custom ROM hoping for this problem to go away, but it happened again.
Any idea why this problem is happening?
Here's a new one on me. I took some pictures and all a sudden I can't share them with messaging or messenger. I get sorry "messenger was unable to process the file" I am using quikpic and also tried snap gallery. i tried clearing data/cache for quikpic and messages, did a smart clean and a reboot. I'm lost. any help is appreciated. I hope i don't have to reset.
looks like my camera pics moved back to the internal memory somehow and my explorer app still shows them on the SD card and when i try to open them then they won't load because they're not there. stock cam still shows SD card for storage. one of my camera apps must have glitched the phone.
So i copied the pics from internal camera folder to the external now i can' t look at those either. i think the file folder structure is glitched. the quikpic still can read pics from the memory card other then what i copied over. i do'n't know what happened. could have happened with Gcam froze up last night after taking a few pictures. so i loaded a diff camera to take pictures in a hurry. they must have both been trying to write to memory.
i still can't get my photos to my computer or anything. i can view them with photo galleries, edit with snapseed and send to mom with messaging through snapseed but the exported files can't be viewed either. i have some really nice pics of my pet birds that isn't easy to take sometimes. Is there some way to recover them?
now i am having the same problem when trying to load music from the file manager. the players say the file was modified or deleted.
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.
