I have the Verizon variant of the LG G2. Whenever I download an image from Chrome, the image does not immediately appear in my Downloads album. I tried the Rescan Media app and it seemed to work once but then didnt seem to help after a few images. I've downloaded pictures from whatsapp and the reddit is fun app and they appear instantly in my gallery. My friend who also got this phone is seeing the same issue.
Are you guys seeing this too? Is there a fix?
Thanks
Edit: Okay after restarting the phone, Rescan Media works everytime to get my gallery updated. But I'm pretty sure this needs to be fixed by LG.
I'm on AT&T and I have had this problem too. After downloading, the picture takes a couple of minutes to appear on the gallery. I have downloaded a third party Gallery app from Play store and it works fine.
This should be fixed in the next update.

I just got my 10.1 two days ago. Transferred a few movie files (.mkv & .mp4) into it through MTP (cable connection). I am 100% sure those video files were already inside the tab storage, they even appear in my moboplayer list, none of them appear in my stock video app. It just shows empty. I had no trouble opening those video files via my files and then open through video app.
What should I do?
nobody cares to help?
The stock gallery sometimes needs a reboot before it picks up new video and pictures.
Try using another gallery app like QuickPic, it's faster and has much more functionality than the stock app anyways.
Having a problem with the Gallery app, it's not showing all of my pictures. New, downloaded pics will show up. But, for example, I have 21 pictures, all jpg, in an album in the Pictures folder of my internal storage and only 13 of them show up in Gallery. Cleared Gallery data and cache, rescanned sdcard manually, rebooted, still nothing.
I installed the Quickpic app, and it won't read my pictures at all. It lists them under "hidden files" and only shows up if I manually click "view hidden files" in settings every time I open the app.
I also noticed Gallery won't play .gif files. They show up as stills.
Both of these problems occur on all roms I've tried, so it's not rom specific.
Any ideas how to fix? It's really annoying me.
So, for whatever reason whenever I go into my gallery it just seems as though my phone refuses to load GIF images or just refuse to load the pictures Into their full resolution. Any fix for this?

I use quickpic for gallery and photos for cloud backup. Can't speak on gif functionality, but its worth a shot imo.
I was just about to make a thread of a similar problem I'm having... My gallery sometimes completely fails to load any album thumbnails and names, but you can enter the albums (everything is still lacking thumbnails). It's very aggravating and it causes Documents to crash often.
Sometimes I add videos (usually shows and movies) to watch on my S7 Edge. I put them in a folder called "Videos" in the root of the microSD.
However, Gallery keeps mixing those videos with my personal photography... Therefore, I decided to hide them by renaming the folder to ".Videos".
Unfortunately, they still show up in Gallery, except grey and unplayable. I tried deleting them in Gallery, and clearing the app data, but neither works. Please help.
Got a chance to reboot and they're gone...
whenever I try to open a freshly taken picture from within the camera app. I can open the gallery app just fine though but I am unable to delete photos with it.
... I wiped my phone half a dozen times already and this always happens after using the phone for a while. Tried safe mode and it still didn't work. What is happening?
When I use Open Camera as my Camera and QuickPic as gallery everything works just fine. I even can delete the photos I've taken within QuickPic.
Also Google Play Music is unable to play any music that is on my SD card. It just skips the track and eventually crashes. But when I use Rocket Player everything works just fine.
This behavior started just recently, after I did a software update I guess... Bought The phone in November
Phone: Galaxy S8, SM-G950FD, UNROOTED Software version: Nougat, Phone says, I'm on the latest version. When I hit software update this is what I get: G950FXXU1AQL5 / G950FOXM1AQL5 / G950FXXU1AQL5 Gallery version: 5.3.05.301 Camera version: 7.1.10
ALMOST FORGOT: Instead of the most recent picture thumbnail next to the shutter button this appears:

Edit: lol I can't even change my wallpaper because of this stupid Gallery App...
Edit 2: Google Play Music is able to play my local sd card files again - let's see how long that lasts...
Edit 3: When launching the camera from lockscreen I can access the gallery just fine... strange things are happening here
