Anyone know whats going on? I guess this has been happening for about a week. All my old pictures are there, but when I reboot, any new pictures I took will just disappear from the phone
Im also on EC05 / Syndicate 1.2. Never had this issue before though
Ok I did a full wipe... and now it deleted ALL of my pics... Whats going on???
All the folders and other things remained intact, but all my pics from the DCIM folder are gone. Even other pics like icons saved in a download folder are gone.
Always backup your card fire this reason. I had to odin back to stock and then root and reload srf. All my pics stay now. Not sure what caused it. Thought it was because it is a new sd card.

By "full wipe" you don't mean "Factory data reset" under Settings -> Privacy do you?
As far as the original problem is concerned is the issue that the files were actually gone from the SD card or just that they didn't show up in Gallery and what not?
When I said full wipe I meant through CWM, so it shouldnt have wiped my pics out like that. I did do a backup thankfully though its a couple months old so I lost a bunch of things.
Its the same SD card Ive used since November or so. I guess I will format the SD card fresh and then copy over what I had saved.
This problem has returned for me with new pictures. I dunno.
Is everyone having this using a theme?
I think theres a broken framework.

I'll ask again... Are the files being removed from the SD card or just from Gallery?
No clue with SRF but "Media Storage" should be running (Settings > Manage Applications > Running Applications).
Clearing the data for this app will clear out Gallery/Music/Video/etc (just the displayed items, not the actual source files). The media scanner should run (scan) shortly after booting and display a notification.
Not sure how to manually fire off the media scanner but if the files still exist and simply don't show up for you then this would be my first troubleshooting step (searching Google for "android invoke media scanner" pointed towards some apps/methods).
Maybe this helps, maybe it doesn't

Get widgetsoid 2.xx on the market and put a widget for media scanner always come in handy plus it also has a lot of other cool switches like ringer and flash light

It's deleting them. It's a problem with themes. When I switched back to SRF not themed the problem stopped.. I also didn't have an issue with Emotionless Beast.

Pop the card out and put it in a computer. See if the pics are on the card that way. It's possible they are on the card but whatever program you are using to look for them isn't finding them. for instance, if you are using Gallery and you have disabled media scanning then it will never know about new pictures.

It deleted them off the SD card permanently. I have no idea how it was able to do that. Every image no matter where it was saved on the SD card was wiped out.
Go into cwm and wipe cache and dalvik.

I tried that after I couldnt save my new pictures several times as well as trying fix permisisons. Nothing worked. I finally did a wipe of everything in CWM and reloaded Syndicate 1.2. When it loaded up all my pictures were gone.
Yeah I started about this in Q&A a couple days ago.
It cant just be a coincidence that its happening to us all at the same time.
Must be something were all trying out thats mmessing it up.
Only thing I can think of that I flashed last was that Heinz theme (which is beautiful if I may say so myself).
Whats the last thing you guys flashed before you got that problem?

Theyre completely gone. They dont show up in the gallery, file explorers, or when mounted to my computer.
I lost alot of pictures I took with my girlfriend on the 4th
I think this started after I installed some new themes- it was either Blue Myst or Shake + Bake. I didnt realize my pictures werent saving since I didnt reboot my phone for a while

Yeah the Shake n Bake is the Heinz theme I meant. Maybe thats what caused iit since The Root said the same tthing as well..
Shame because that theme is gorgeous.
We should all ttry Odin-ing than just flashing SRF 1.2 and a kernal and see how it goes for a few days.

Everytime i add a new video into tab,it does not show up in my gallery...
Any help?

have you tried rebooting? im had a similar issue with my music not showing up when i added it to the tab but after i rebooted it was there
Yeah, the gallery is finicky. You would think that it would refresh itself when you open it. Or better yet, an actual refresh button?
I've deleted images off the device using a file manager, for example, and the images thumbnails still show in the gallery. Stupid things like that.
Make sure you remove the usb cable after transferring files to the tab.
After removal the tab will scan for new files and new pictures/movies will show up in the gallery.

This is video i used my tablet to download,so the is no USB involved....
I've used FolderSync to sync the photos from my Rezound onto my Nexus, they are in the Pictures folder, but none of the pictures show up in the Gallery app. It doesn't seem like there is a way to add a folder to the Gallery app unless I've missed it. Does anyone know of a way to add the Pictures folder to the Gallery app? Or will I have to move the pics to the DCIM folder? Thanks!

I can't be the only one who has tried adding photos to my tablet, can I?
the gallery app should pick up all images in the device.. It scans for them and links to them as they are created or put onto the device..
mine isn't doing this. I've opened the Gallery app and hit refresh and it still isn't picking them up.

I have the same problem on mine. I've copied a directory of photos, under /sdcard/Pictures/test, hit refesh and they will not appear in Gallery.
The only photos that appear in Gallery are those from "Download", "Profile Pictures" and "Scrapbook Photos".
Normally it's automatic.
Silly question: have you restarted your Nexus 7?

I'm having the same problem, but it only picks up my Picasa photos. I but then when I don't sync my Picasa photos the Picasa photos still show up.. I restarted several times... Any solution?
Me too
I also have copied 2 folders to the picture directory which gallery does not see.
AND nothing else opens individual pics either. ES Image, FE Image, nor Image gallery.
I don't know if it matters.....These are .tif files.
Thanks
Hello guys, my dad has just bought a nexus 7, and I must admit it is a really nice device.
However there are some pictures on it and we cant find how to delete them, i have even been in the system files using astro.
I have also hooked it up to a computer and still cant find them, however they show up in the gallery of the device.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Showing nothing in there, been and had a look in there already thinking it was in there
maybe its pictures that have been uploaded to g+/picasa, they will show in the gallery even though they arent in your device.
You can delete pictures using the stock gallery app. Open the picture then tap on it and you should see a trash icon at the top right. If they are in an album, just long-press on it to see the trash icon.

Disable syncing of Google Photos in settings/accounts/Google.
Then, delete the cache folder in/sdcard/Pictures. That's where they are stored.

Hey guys I have a weird issue where my gallery app is not seeing some of my pics on my external sd card. The pics it is not seeing are pics that I had moved onto the card from my computer. They are in the DCIM folder along with some pics I have taken with my device. Currently only the pics taken with my device are showing in the gallery app. Anyone else having this issue?
Mods, please move this to the help/Q&A section. I mistakenly posted in general
Hey guys just want to bump this. Surely I'm not the only one having this problem. Any help greatly appreciated

In my case the gallery shows only pictures saved till a given date. Lasta night I made an experience: Dismounted SD card and Mounted it agais, amd the result is that now I get even less pictures displayed.
However I can find and use them using root explorer, but not with any gallery app
I also run some sd-fix app's but with no result
very strange

Thanks pasil. Hopefully somebody else might chime in with some other ideas. I've tried everything so far. It just doesn't make sense. The .jpg files are saved in the same place as the other .jpg files that are pictures I have taken with my phone. There is no logical reason why those .jpg pics show up and not the ones from my computer. The gallery app should pick up all .jpg files.

Just tried clearing data/cache. Didn't work. [emoji19]
I even tried using a different gallery app and that app doesn't see the photos either.
Did you checked the date? sometimes it's resetted to 1999 and the recently taken photos are placed at the end of the list.

Just checked the dates and they are OK. The recent photos I have taken with my device all show in my gallery, but some of the other .jpg photos I moved onto my sd card from my computer just aren't showing up at all in the gallery. Makes no sense. I'm totally at a loss. I can see the pics in ES File explorer but not in the gallery
That maybe stupid suggestions. Can you access those "invisible" picture using stock file manager? If yes, try to create new folder using stock file manager and copy/move few pictures for testing. Check if new folder with pictures shows in gallery.

Maybe you could try little walk around. What about uploading few testing pictures on your pc to your dropbox account and see if you can successfully save them for offline viewing on your note.

Ok so this is really weird. If I download a pic from my drive account it does show up in my gallery. Also, if I move one of the photos that is not visible in gallery on my sd card to my internal device storage then it also becomes visible in my gallery. So the issue is isolated to photos moved onto the ext sd card from my pc. I'm hoping someone smarter than me can come up with a fix because I have many photos I like to keep downloaded on my ext sd card.
What about moving them back to sd card. Try to create folder on sd card using stock file manager and move pictures to that folder. I have no problem storing pics on my sd card.

Ok so problem solved! Upon your advice I created a folder on my sd card and moved the pics there and they showed up! Turns out if you have them saved anywhere in the DCIM folder on the SD card they won't show up, but if you move them out from there they show up in the gallery app just fine.
instaled Quickpic and now I can see all photos and pictures
