Funny issue: Index of gallery? - Desire General

Hello everybody!
I got an issue on my Froyo (LeDroid) rom.
When i download a picture from my Dropbox folder (or from the EX-Explorer via lan-network), the picture does not show up in the gallery, where i can chose it as my wallpaper.
The File is defenitly there (i see it in the file-explorer) but it does not show up in the gallery apps.
How can i fix this?
Someone noticed something simmilar ?

Maybe the Gallery is a little "lazy", if so then SDrescan might help:

I had the same issue, in completely same steps.
On my PC on the dropbox I dropped a ringtone, the placed it in /sdcard/media/ringtones/ with the file manager, but the ringtone showed up nowhere.
Reboot of phone helped
Edit: I get "installation unsuccessful" for sdrescan.

I just unmount and the remount the SDCard.

Motorola phone portal behavior

Hi all!
I have a motorola Defy running on stock rom. Did an update through motorola software update to 2.51.1 Retail en CEE.
After the update it kept all my settings, apps, etc.
One thing though, did not test Motorola Phone Portal before the update, but it seems to work kinda strange for me (I am connecting through wifi on 192.168.1.144:8080):
1. If I click a recent photo in the home tab, a 404 page not found error appears. Can view photos only from photos tab.
2. Clicking on File Manager tab does not load at all. Have to enter the manager by clicking the link in the Photos tab (manager). I am using IE8.
3. I can`t rename, or paste any file in https://192.168.1.114:8085/webfolder. I can only copy! If I try to rename I get a no access error or something like that.
4. After refreshing the webfolder from explorer, all my folders look like they have appended my google username (ex: dcim becomes dcimusername, audio becomes audiousername). If I double click a folder I get a folder not found error.
Is this phone portal the same to you, or something is wrong with my phone?
PS: another strange thing: I created a games folder on my homescreen. Every time I restart the phone, the folder renames to default name, folder. I have to rename it to games everytime.
Managed to figure it out. I disabled Secure login, and it works flawless now!
The only downside is that it`s not asking for a password anymore. No worry though, I use it only on my private network!

Can't access settings for Files folder

Rooted on stock ICS since release date. I've never had a problem accessing settings for Files folder until today. t989 would freeze upon hitting the setting button while in the Files folder, and a message would later pop up stating, "Unfortunately, Files has stopped." After I've replied with "Ok," second message would pop up stating, "TwLauncher not responding. Would you like to close it?" I can access all my folders in my Files folder, but not my Settings
I've already tried wiping dalvik-cache and reboot with no such luck. I'm wondering if I erased an important data using SD Maid app, cleaning SD card with corpse finder
What is the files folder?

The factory file manager app . Basically, I would access the "setting" in order to show or hide hidden files. Not a huge problem because I can access my hidden files through "Astro File Manager/Browser" app. It just a nuisance knowing that the problem exist I guess
I fixed the problem by clearing the data on the file. :laugh:

[Q] gallery app not seeing all pics?

it sees new pics taken but nothing else. old photos are visible in other apps, file explorers etc see these fine. they open manually in the gallery if i choose to open one via file explorer.
wth?
Same here. Old photos (from a backup of stock 4.1.2) are not shown in the Gallery app. Newly taken photos are visible. File manager shows all files correctly in /sdcard/DCIM/Camera. The Settings menu of the Gallery app is a completely empty window.
I tried deleting the data of the Gallery app using Titanium Backup, but it didn't change anything.
Any ideas?

[Q] Internal sdcard Problem

Hello,
I did a permition fix using TWRP (dunno why ;( ) and after that I can't do anything with my internal sdcard, I mean I can see folders and files inside and other stuff, but it fails if i try to send pictures from gallery to mail client, I can't even download files using browser, aswell as installing Xposed Framework and etc. I need your help!!
I noticed the sdcard name changed to Legacy from "0" (ES File Explorer), so looks like I've got mouting problem, but I don't know how to fix it.

If you are rooted just install "Folder Mount" from play store run it , it will fix your sd card issues.
Thank You
Yeah man, you are genius!
Launched folder mount, granted root access, system fault was found instantly and fixed as well.
Thank You.

[Q] Weird writing problem on rooted ND8 stock.

Recently rooted my phone thanks to these wonderful people at a place called xda-developers. You may have heard of them.
Anyway, I find that there's something weird going on with my phone, I can't write to the internal storage. External SD card works fine, Internal SD card does not. Only a few apps work.
The camera app will take and save photos, but using the camera within Kik Messenger gives m the error that the photo cannot be saved, I have to take photos with the camera app, then import them to Kik with the "choose photo" option, which will let me choose a photo through Gallery.
In another related issue, ES File Explorer will not create new folders. I'm in the main directory of the "internal" SD card, where things like Downloads and DCIM like to sit in. I cannot make a folder. If I go in with a Windows computer over USB I can make folders fine. ES File Explorer cannot even delete the folder. Says "New Folder cannot be deleted" Why is this? I can even rename the folder, but I still cannot delete this folder. Going into the properties it says I have full read and write access to the folder, I still cannot delete it.
In a third instance I have the GPS program Navfree. I cannot even run the program. Google Play installs it and it says it works, but when I go to actually open the program it gives me the error "Program cannot be installed, contact support" before quitting me back to the home screen. This program is special because it downloads and installs, but there are map files that it needs to download before it becomes useful. This is done within the app and I do not know where it tries to save to.
I think all of these problems are related and I have not seen any forum posting about it so far and I have been searching for a while. Google Play will still download and install apps like no problem and ES File Explorer will copy and move files around and will even rename New Folder to 'folder' but will not delete i
At first I suspected it to be the problem with KitKat and the debacle about writing to /external/ SD cards. But my problem extends to the internal storage as well. I have applied the fix to the 'permissions.xml' file by adding "WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" I had to flash the fix in with recovery because I could not save the edited file I had typed up. Using one of the automated fixes in Google Play told me the action had already been completed. On the contrary, external storage works fine, I can write files and delete them and whatever I want to the external. The problem is with the internal card and it applies to everything I've tried except the camera.
So what is going on with my phone? I have root access but some apps will not work properly. It's just one headache after another. Here's hoping I won't notice the next one until I get another phone...
Eventually I just got fed up with the problem and re-applied the stock rom with Samsung Kies. Re-rooted and now the problem is no more. Thanks for thinking about me!
