The default gallery app is not displaying some of the photos taken with the camera. I can see the photos in the DCIM/Camera folder when I use a file manager app, but they don't show up in the gallery.
Problem appears randomly, but always dissappears on power off / on.
Anyone noticed this before? I do not know how yo recreate it.
Thanks,
Sankar

I've noticed this on/off with most android devices. Usually, to me it seems to be associated with having a large number of images in the gallery and it loading the images.
Yep, this is an issue had by others. Please star this report at Google: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13419
delete content of /sdcard/dcim/.thumbnails and re-open gallery
Issue 13419: New pictures disappear in Gallery
Thanks guys, Issue 13419 covers this, and I've starred it
I've just experienced this myself. In addition, the pics stayed blurry when viewing pics individually as I scrolled through my gallery. Everything returned to normal after reboot. I've starred the issue also. Thanks.

I've made a video showing the bug happening:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OK8NO-97iOE
I take a photo, preview it without problem but when I load the Gallery app it doesn't appear. However, deleting an image seems to force the Gallery app to re-index the folder and the photos appear.
I'm hoping video proof of the bug may spur on a fix.
Happened to me earlier I just opened the camera app and then opened gallery from within camera... pics showed up in gallery afterwards

After moving some images from the camera to a new folder, the regular gallery app won't show them, just a triangle where the image should be. Also, I can't send these images in messages from quickpic. What can I do about this? They're all pics of my newborn son and everybody wants to see him!

did you try clearing quickpic's data and cache
I have a problem with Quickpic too - when I try to assign a picture to a contact - when you pick a picture, choose 'set as' and then try and assign a picture to a contact it just doesn't work. The picture to be assigned opens up with the margins to be set (edit mode), fades away for an instant and then comes back. When you set the margins and click the floppy disc icon (in the top right hand corner) to 'save' the picture the screen goes black and you have to exit the program. I'm fairly sure that this feature used to work fine up until recently. I've even gone as far as to do a factory reset on my phone, reflash my phone's ROM and reinstall the QuickPic app. No change though, I still can't set a contact picture.
Can anyone help? My phone is a Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray.

So the images wont show in the stock gallery app or quickpic? Hate to say this but they may have gotten currupted during the move.
I came across something odd. I download a wallpaper image and went into ES File Explorer to move it to my wallpaper folder. It moved successfully but when I go into gallery and into my wallpaper folder it doesn't show it in there. I downloaded QuickPic and checked that folder and it's in there. I don't know why gallery isn't showing it.
Anyone else have this problem? Can someone try adding an image from one folder or the download folder to a different folder and see if it shows up in Gallery please?

How long has it been since you copied/moved the file? It sometimes takes a while before the Gallery pics it up, or you might try to reboot and see if it picks it up that way (although you shouldn't have to).
Did that as you told, but not showing photos
I too have that problem

Hey mate... i too have that problem...
Here's what i know,
I'm running ICS on xperia play r800x doomkernel
The problem occured when i used a gallery lock app to lock photos from my DCIM/camera folder... the photos were successfully locked.
But today my gallery lock app showed 0 photos!! when i checked the phone gallery, the pictures were'nt there either.
I used the recover tool within the gallery lock app to get back my photos and videos but here starts my problem. It recovered every one of my ppics but it would not show up on my ICS Gallery. I use ES explorer to handle data.
i tried moving the folder to sd card root with no joy...
Here is something even more wierd... this one just stumped me!!!
when i connected my phone in mtp mode, every folder shows up except the one containing those files in sd root....
So my conclusion is that the problem lies with the files themselves and not the gallery app....
in fact, in my opinion ICS Gallery is the best gallery app that androids can have! It updates in real time... As i said, the problem is with the files.
Now we need to find a way to fix them...!

Just did exactly as you did, DL'd the pic, moved it with ES from downloads to my wallpaper folder then opened gallery and it was right there. Running viperx.
Hi all,
Not sure if I've posted this to the right place.
Anyway my problem is that when I sync my Dropbox to show in my gallery, it shows every photo that I have from all the folders. I only want just two personal photo albums to show in my gallery.
All the other photos that show are tucked away in loads of different work folders. So is there any way to just show the albums I want?
Cheers

So when I take a picture and swipe left to view it, it now takes me through the photos app rather than the standard gallery. I read that clearing the defaults on the Google+ app might work....but it doesn't. Please help as I desire the old gallery compared to the new photo one. Is there a way to change?

AFAIK, there isn't. The Photos app has replaced the old Gallery app as the standard image and video library app.

There hasn't been a gallery for a few versions now. Download QuickPic or push gallery.apk.

Will that change what Google Camera opens with though?
Since I rooted my A9 the Gallery app doesn't update new photos and new folders where the photos are.
I tried to empty cache several time, even re-install the app but it won't fix it!!
It looks like another app is linked to gallery and this app is somehow frozen.
Am I the only one to have this gallery app problem after root?
I am using a third party gallery app but I want the RAW edit of the stock one
I deleted the htc gallery app then restored untouched system in twrp so it restore the original app...still not fixed! Now I have to open manually each photo in file manager so they appear in the gallery.
Any solution?
I can't raw edit old dng because the gallery wont see the dng, I am getting crazy
