[Q] [q] Gallery app refuses to refresh - General Questions and Answers

I recently moved from a Sense rom to a Gingerbread rom, and it's been working great. The 3d gallery was a little slow at first, but it caught up to speed and worked fine. All of a sudden now, half the folders have broken thumbnail previews, and within folders only some pictures load. I have tried clearing cache, a fresh rom install, and checked my SD for errors but nothing works.
Any help please?

[Q] Images not updated in gallery

Hey all,
I've been using galaxy R for couple of months now and i've started to face this problem from a week.I have observed that after i add new images (jpg) to usb storage they dont appear in the gallery after the media scan.I've tried restart and clear data for gallery app but nothing seems to work.
I can very well see the images in myfiles or astro file manager, also tried quickpic and it displays the newly added images correctly.Also if try to open images from filemanager using gallery app,takes long time to open any image which is again not the case with quick pic.
I really need the default gallery app very badly.
Thanks.
Check if there aren't any other files in your image folder. Sometimes noimage.dat or other file appears out out nowhere and it causes the gallery problem. Delete that file if it is the case + try to not keep other file-types in your pics folder.
Well I've checked it and there are no such files neither hidden one. Also i've completely deleted the previous folder and copied to a new folder.But looks like gallery is freezed except for the camera folder and images downloaded through internet only gets updated.I've deleted entire contents of cache folder in data/cooliris but does not work.In fact previous images turned black.I dont seem to understand whats going on with the gallery.
maybe try a factory reset

[Q] Jelly Bean Stock Gallery, grey Images

I'm sorry for bringing this up again, I know it has been asked before, but the solutions provided didn't help me.
My problem:
The Stock Jelly Bean gallery app only shows grey images and thumbnails..
I have tried to clear the data and cache of gallery and media storage, rescan the sdcard, full wipe, changing roms etc.
the weird thing is.. everywhere else the pictures display normally. Quickpic, file explorer, computer etc.
it's just the stock gallery app..
i don't mind using quickpic, but it drives me mad: ever since the images didn't work, daydream doesn't work, i can't set whatsapp pictures and similar

[HELP] Gallery won't show pictures after backup restore

Hello!
I've rooted my phone and started using custom ROMs a while ago. Today, attempting to go back to motorola's rom, I realised I didn't have my pics in there, so I went back to my previous setup restoring from a backup. Everything was fine (wallpaper, whatsapp wallpaper, profile pictures, etc.) until the gallery loaded up and nothing would show up.
My gallery folders were there and did show up how many pics they have inside but when I'd open it, it would only show gray squares and after a while everything would vanish and only my album arts from n7 player showed up.
I'm using PACMAN for xt925 and TWRP.
One detail, however, is that I reinstalled (overwrote) TWRP, because the stock motorola ROM can't seem to boot into it unless I do it right after I install it. Maybe that's what messed up my pics? Is there a way to recover them?
Thank you!

Try clearing data for the Gallery app or reflashing your rom. I prefer using QuickPic and haven't used stock gallery apps since I preordered this phone. QuickPic allows you to set multiple different file paths to include so it picks up just those pics/vids in those directories.
I have cleared the cache and data but still not showing all wallpapers i got, but i noticed that some folders have begun to be showed also not all folders/wallpapers on the phone

You might want to try reflashing your rom then. As I said, I'm rather inexperienced with the stock Gallery app cuz I prefer third party. I never liked the UI of stock gallery apps.
I had trouble too with the stock gallery. I ditched it for Quickpic a long time ago.

[Q] Stock gallery/Photos not showing new downloaded images?

Apologies if this has been posted before, I tried to use the search feature but it was giving me an error saying it was temporarily unavailable.
For some reason any downloaded images to my phone (into the folder Downloads or otherwise) are not showing in the stock gallery app? I've tried force stopping the app, clearing the data and cache but still it doesn't want to show the new images
The files aren't corrupt and can be seen in ES File Explorer perfectly fine and I've downloaded Quickpic to see if they show on there, which they do.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
Yes, happens with me all the time... it gets sorted out by itself.. give it sometime. Refresh gallery from the 3 dot menu in gallery and stay put!
I use QuickPic as my default gallery app... I find it the best!
