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

I managed to delete the original gallery on my KF while trying to delete something else. Should this be the the 3d gallery apk? Well I couldn't seem to find it on line so I pulled the one off my Samsung Droid Charge and attempted to push it to system\app with Root Explorer but when I attempt to install it just says that it did not install. Any ideas? Wrong apk or permissions? Need a quick class on what I am doing wrong, did not see it posted elsewhere. I am rooted and like to use it to put some family pics on the ADW home screen.
Thanks!
Ok, got the right apk from krelvinaz (thanks so much). Using Root Explorer I clicked install and it installed in data\app. Didn't do anything to permissions. So now while rooted OR unrooted, I try to use the picture frame widget. If picking the picture from Gallery it lets me resize, hit save and it just closes without adding anything to the screen. If I hit the widget and use QuickPic for the picture selection, it creates the frame on the screen but it is black with nothing in it.
Any ideas? Do I need to change permissions or load the apks in a different folder? This all worked fine before I screwed up and deleted gallery. Worked when it was rooted too.
Bump.
Anyone? Tried several different apps. The ones that work either just put up a black box or put up the pic but it doesn't stay and reverts to the black box. Worked before so something is missing since I deleted the gallery the first time.
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
as the title says gallery won't show all wallpapers on the device, it is supposed to show all folders that contain wallpapers , photos, and videos but the gallery doesnt show all wallpapers except the DCIM folder
i tried to download other gallery apps like QuickPic and worked fine with me and showed all wallpapers on the device then i went to the main gallery it started to show some folders that weren't been showed before but not all the folder also not all the wallpapers inside them i tried to download another gallery apps like Customizable gallery 3D it showed only the folders and wallpapers that the main gallery shows them
so any solution for this problem?

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.

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!
Coming from htc gallery im quite lost in s7 galley . Images transferred via BT or downloaded from emails are not showing up in gallery. No downloaded folder in gallery no settings at all. Am I missing something here?
For reall?? no one has problem with it? that's kind of stupid thing to see pictuers that came via BT in file explorer. And no option to save in gallery. When I moved them with native MyFile manager to camera or screenshot folder it will move them with no problem but still no show in gallery apk. Can someone please explain? Thanks
