Having a problem on my wife's skyrocket. When she takes a picture, the gallery shows that there are 3 of the same pic. This happens with everything in the gallery, videos included. And when you delete items, they come back after a reboot. Only way I have been able to permanently delete items is through astro or root explorer.
She is using AOKP m6.

Try going settings>applications and clearing media storage data then restarting your phone.

Running skyraider 2.5.2 So a new issue. I took a few videos today and went to gallery to play them back. I click on a set in gallery, it goes to the list of pics/vids but doesn't load the preview pics, they're all grayed out. Then it proceeds to lock up the phone and I have to pull the battery to reboot. I've tried clearing the gallery data and cache, no luck.
This really stinks
Alright, I have been searching with no solution in sight. I have tried everything.
I deleted many videos and pictures from my phone using the usb cable as I've always done. For some reason, this time around, the gallery will not delete the freaking pictures. It shows the gray box as a thumbnail with an exclamation mark and will not delete.
I have deleted the .thumbs folder, I have emptied data/cache, I have deleted the cache in the /com.cooliris.media/ folder. I have tried using gallery 3d (with some success but the folders that I also deleted still show.
I dont know what to do! It's pissing me off. Even folders that I set to private (putting a period before the name) still show up, although no pictures show up inside them.
I have a rooted Evo 4g with Fresh rom. This problem has been going on with every other rom I put in. Any solutions besides throwing this gorgeous phone against the wall and see it splatter into little pieces?
I'm assuming there's some hidden place where this cache is that keeps everything. Gallery will not reload no matter what I delete
This is going to be a challenge trying to get my point across, but here goes.
Lets say i have one image/video in the gallery and i wish to delete this image/video, i mark it for deletion then select delete, the image/video seems to get deleted, i hit the home button and then re-enter the gallery and the image/video has gone, or has it? now, while still in the gallery if i press the back button to exit the gallery then start the gallery again the image/video is now back, it doesn't matter how many times i delete the image/video, it allways comes back, even afer a reboot, now here's the really strange bit, when i check to see if the files have been delete from the USB storage using a file browser i find that they infact have been deleted, but they still show up in the gallery, this behaviour occurs with all image and video files, camera files, received files over bluetooth, etc.
I hope you all can understand what i am trying to say and i hope i got my point across ok, btw, this is the second Nexus S i've had that exibits this issue, i've also done a few factory resets on both Nexus S's i've had, but this issue just wont go away.
This seems to me like it's a bug in Android 2.3's gallery app, does anyone else see this very strange behaviour? could someone test this on thier Nexus S? does Google know about this issue?
BTW, this issue only seems to occur when i delete all images and videos in all folders, or if i delete all folders that are in the gallery, i would have mentioned this earlier but i had only took one video and one pic to test the camera.
Within the last day, all of a sudden when viewing photos in the gallery, it has started flashing a couple of times and then just goes back to the home screen. I have tried unmounting the external SD card, formatted it, deleted both ..\DCIM\Camera on the internal and external cards. Nothing. I have also unsynced the Picasa albums, went in to the Application Manager and cleared the data and cache for the Gallery. Still nothing. Even with an empty Gallery it still closes. Any ideas? I am running the debloated stock rom and rooted. I have had no new updates recently. My phone is pretty much useless now with the camera and viewing pictures.
I am having a strange issue from time to time, where the camera flashes to take a photo, and the photo shows up on the little thumbnail in the bottom left.
However, when I open the gallery, it turns out the photos didn't save, and they're not in the phone's internal storage. When I restart my phone, it starts saving again.
This is, of course incredibly frustrating, as I've lost some important photos that I thought were saved, including a recent holiday.
Has anyone had this happen? Is there a solution? Would using a third party camera app help?
Edit: I'm not using an SD card. Just internal storage.

Seems it hasn't storage permission or something is breaking that. Are you completely stock?
Backup your data, do a factory reset and install app one by one, to see if any app is breaking that.
That's very weird
