Unable to load photos in gallery - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys,
I had suddenly this problem after switching roms,
Whenever I open gallery I see only grey thumbnails and if I open the phot it gives message
"Unable to load photos" and a blank screen, further if I tried to set it for lock screen or home screen it opens for that purpose only. Please help. Deleted data, cache for gallery and media storage but no effect,
Regards and Thanks,

Tried Quickpic? In the very least you'll know if it's the app or the files.

[Q] Empty thumbnails in gallery app

Hi
I have strange gallery problem. After hiding some pictures with .nomedia file (books covers), I see in gallery empty/black thumbnail with 33 string as caption, when i tap on it, it shows me 33 empty/blank thumbnails, when I tap on random thumbnail it sows me can't open message....
How to get rid of that?
I triad to Clear gallery data, tried manually delete gallery and mediaprovider folders from Android/data/ triad many restarts and triad renaming folder with that books covers....
I have noticed the same thing.
The way I sorted it (if you're feeling brave) is to delete the image/thumbnail from within the Gallery app, it then removes it from the view but actually leaves the image file.
I made the backup of the files first, but it does work. I would rather a better/proper way to deal with this though.
Thanks, it worked

gallery view

when in my gallery and i view an image , i cant get it to go full screen , i always have the bar at the top to edit,share,delete ect and at the bottom it shows a small image of all the other pictures in that album .
it never used to do this before clicking on an image in the gallery even in an album , would show full screen without the bar at the top and picture preview at the bottom , anyone have any idea what i changed or didi ? tried to reboot but no luck
happens in both portrait and landscape mode.

Did you try to clear cache or clear data for gallery?

hi there , appreciate the reply , yes i forced stop cleared chache ect from the gallery but still same issue, what was weird is it didint remove my albums i had created in there but it still cleared. i exspected it to wipe my albums back to default.
after you open the image and you have the line above with the edit, etc and the row of images on the bottom, just tap the image you're viewing and the two rows should disappear. If you want to bring them back just tap the image again
Not sure if I understood you correctly and you didn't provide a screenshot so I hope this helps. If not, please disregard
Screen shot link is there but when I tap my image the bars aren't going away the way they should , they are stuck there

[Q] Note 3 stock gallery super slow/freeze?

Loving my Note 3, but for some strange reason, when I go to gallery and pick a picture, all the images stay where they are, but you can see in the background that it transitions to a different UI. I would have to hit back and reselect the image, or click settings >> Select Items and then it will finally display the images from the selected folder.
I don't want to have to use a different gallery, but wondering if others experienced this?
Yes, it does that.
Only for me it just gives "Gallery has stopped working". Or "[app] has stopped working" if I open it through another app, like Whatsapp(Which is horribly annoying as Whatsapp has recently ditched the option to select another gallery app.) and Stock Camera.
I just stick to Quickpic whenever I can.

Thanks, you guys! I found something called FishGallery or something like that. UI is ugly, but it has some neat features.

Help. Weird Gallery behavior (SM-G530H)

Hi guys, I have a SM-G530H on the September 2014 KitKat build number G530HXXU1ANII
It is rooted. Everything seems fine but for one thing.
Take for example I'm on Whatsapp and have to send a picture saved on my phone to someone , or change my DP, I select Gallery. It opens up the Gallery. As soon as I click on any picture it takes me back to the homescreen.
I reopen Whatsapp and it straightaway takes me to picture select screen and now selection from Gallery works normally.
This happens while uploading to any other app (Fb on browser, XDA) from Gallery. It opens the Gallery for picture selection, I click on a chosen picture and it takes me to homescreen and I have to restart entire process again. It is very annoying. Please help. Thank you
Try to clean the cache of the gallery settings>apps manager> all apps and search for the gallery app and clean it
Didn't work brother

Hi, I don't know if it will help you, but I've experimented gallery issues with another device and I solved it downloading another gallery app from G Play end froze (eg: with Titanium - needs root) the stock gallery.
Updating to latest firmware solved it

Gallery not working because of force fast scroll

I installed force fast scroll on my galaxy s4 sph-l720 triforce rom (rooted) and now my app gallery does not load. I have installed quick pic for now. But when I get a pic from a friend in a text I can not click onto it to view it larger. Can an help me get my gallery working agian or make it possible for quick pic to open pictures in messaging? I have cleared data and cache in settings for gallery, rebooted phone, took battery out and then back in, uninstalled force fast scroll, and nothing has helped yet. Besides re-installing my rom can i uninstall gallery and re-install it somehow?
Thank you, Randy
