Albums

I am very thankful to you xda guys. Now is a new problem. When I browse my photo album or brows in tab itself and than I see that I always get three files with names such as PC_C_3 or diffrent in the folder application data/htc/htc albums/cache. It has a size of 11 mb this uses up my internal memory. Of I delete these files nothing happens in my album. What is this? And in folder application data/htc/htc album I get first five photos of my albums in diffrent and squeezed resolution. If I delete them than other photos look horrible on the photos and videos tab. Please help!!

[Q] all my pictures are gone!

Hey guys,
Woke up this morning and all my camera taken pics are gone! They gallery opens up and there are folders listed with downloaded and sample photos, but no camera photos. Not even the "camera" folder was there. I just took a picture now and it created the camera folder and there is only the one picture in there that I just took. I had like 350-400 pics on there and poof they are gone.
Any ideas?
Anybody know the path on the SD card of where the pics are stored?
Thanks.
/sdcard/DCIM/Camera is where my pics are stored anyways.
I remember in my days with my Moment my gallery used to not always load the images. I would delete the directory /sdcard/Android/data/com.cooliris.media and then it would force the gallery to search the sdcard again to index all the pics. No idea if that's the approved process or if it works on the Epic (mainly cause I haven't had the issue), but it used to do the trick.
Search the market for Rescan Media. Useful tool to force a rescan for the gallery.
Un-mount and remount sd card should be ok

I can navigate the sd card anf the DCIM folder is ther, but empty. I unmounted and restarted the phone with a battery pull too, nothing. Ill try rescan media later. I just found out my lookout mobile app was also not set to back up pics

gallery issues..help

so ive tried several diff folders and loc. to place my photos in so gallery will recognize them...no luck. can someone tell me where they have their pics stored so gallery will display them. also, how can i get my books covers to not show in my gallery...thanks in advance. and yes, i did search first.
Are you updated to 3.1? I actually have my images on my external sdcard, but in 3.1 theres a Pictures folder, an eBooks folder, etc...I can't remember if it was configured differently in 3.0.
Download sdrescan from the market and after transfering pics use sdrescan...my pics showed up after that.

Yeah... I'm on brd 3.1. ill try rescan..i had my pics in the pic folder but they aren't recognized. And my book covers are in my gallery too... gotta figure this out..
try this
First go to applications / all and find the gallery application. Clear data and force stop. Open the gallery and see if that worked.
If that doesn't work. go applications / all and find the media storage application. clear data. Then open the gallery. Fixed my weird gallery problems.

AOSP 4.4 gallery issues

Having a problem with the Gallery app, it's not showing all of my pictures. New, downloaded pics will show up. But, for example, I have 21 pictures, all jpg, in an album in the Pictures folder of my internal storage and only 13 of them show up in Gallery. Cleared Gallery data and cache, rescanned sdcard manually, rebooted, still nothing.
I installed the Quickpic app, and it won't read my pictures at all. It lists them under "hidden files" and only shows up if I manually click "view hidden files" in settings every time I open the app.
I also noticed Gallery won't play .gif files. They show up as stills.
Both of these problems occur on all roms I've tried, so it's not rom specific.
Any ideas how to fix? It's really annoying me.

Cannot see my media in Gallery

Hi everyone. Recently I saw my battery drains due to IndexService, and when I check internet one of the suggestion was to put .nomedia file to folders where there is no media file inside, so the battery usage of service will be reduced. When I try to do it made a mistake. When I copy .nomedia file accidentally I paste it to internal storage. Directly after that I deleted it. But now in my gallery all the photos in internal storage is not there anymore. From explorer applications I can see that all photos are still okay. But cannot find what is the reason for not getting my photos in gallery. BTW, not only gallery all other apps, photo editors or social media apps cannot access to the photos as well, but only file managers. Any tip will be appreciated. Thanks
Strange, my only suggestion would be to add another photo to the folder and reboot.
Hopefully that will force an update.
Thanks for your time and help
What you suggest partly worked. Means new photo I put into the folder was seen in the gallery but not the old ones.
