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.

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

The stock gallery will not stay open, it opens and closes. Has anyone experienced this?
Thanks
I have been having the same problem lately. Can't figure out why.
Haven't seemed to have any problems.
Had the same problem, so I started using a free gallery app called QuickPic.
You have a corrupt pic file, look for one in quickpic that won't allow you to open it and erase it.

I tried that and no joy. Anyone have any other ideas?
Here's what I found, I wiped my SD card and removed Camera360 Ultimate. The Gallery opened fine, I re-installed Camera360 took a picture and the Gallery FC. That seems to what is causing it for me.
I placed ".nomedia" in my music folder and still the album artwork appears in the gallery, even after a reboot.
Is there another way to hide albums from the gallery?
I had this issue too, the following advice solved it for me.
Download an app called quickpic from the market. For some reason it correctly hid my nomedia folders despite them showing in the Xoom, so I told it to show hidden folders. Then for the folders that were misbehaving, long press them, click unhide, then long press again and click hide.
My guess is manually making the nomedia file goes wrong somehow, but doing the above hid the folders I was trying to hide
If it only shows folders with pics and you want to hide a music folder, I guess the workaround would be to also have a small picture file in each folder you want to hide.

How do I get my camera uploads able to be viewed in the gallery or all my other images stored on dropbox?
Use ES File Explorer, add your Dropbox as a network drive, then you can browse the folder with the ES Gallery app (Maybe also the stock gallery app, I haven't checked because I don't use it)

Ya but when you first run the setup utility, HTC tells you that you can auto upload cam images and view them in the gallery. They definitely don't expect everyone to do that.

So I see where you can click Albums -> DropBox and I get the API access request which I accept, but then Gallery force closes. ARGH
Oh, I didn't know about that feature. Although not much of a feature, since I get to exactly the same stage as you before it force closes.
Does this work for anyone?
BUMP...........
You can enable the automatic upload in dropbox' app settings.

That doesn't answer the question at all....
It works properly for me. The Dropbox app automatically uploads my camera shots and video onto their severs. The HTC Gallery app lets me select my Dropbox folders under the Albums drop down menu. Once selected, I can browse and view whatever.

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
