Gallery and Music Alps empty? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So after a recent reboot of CM6 my music apparently and gallery are empty. Files still on the sdcard. Is there a way to resync them?

Gallery doesnt show all the pictures

Hey.
I have a question that is already on topic. When i take a picture with my cam it disappears from gallery but remains in sdcard. Example: i have 40 pics and gallery shows only 50% or less.
I hope someone knows a solution for it.
I have stock latest android.

It's a known bug.
Install Rescan Media. It'll scan your phone and all your pictures and videos will be displayed in the Gallery.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Deleting the ".thumbnail" hidden folder in the DCIM folder of my SD card fixed the problem for me.
I installed the rescan media and it works for me.
Cheers

Multiple entries in stock music player

I am not too sure what the heck happened but now I have multiple entries for the songs in my stock music player and the really odd thing that all but one of the copies actually plays any ideas on how to repopulate the list?

Music app showing duplicates.

Since I started storing music in an external as the stock music app is not working correctly. When I open library in folder view the songs names are duplicates. Only one of the song names is actually music and during playback the player will stop every time it reaches a name without music.

Music Player>app info>force stop>clear data.
If that does not work, then...
Settings>storage>unmount ... >remount>reboot
There must be a better solution. I had this problem and when I put the card into my laptop, the laptop showed the duplicates as well!

I tried the tips but ended up with the duplication increasing from 3 to 4. By the way my music app doesn't have the app info-force stop-clear data menu. I had to access it through applications menu.

Formet SD card and retransfer music. Or first try to unmount and mount sd card

There is an app called Duplicate Song Deleter. I used it and it worked like a charm!
Actually this kind of worked. I hope the problem isn't coming back. Settings, apps, all, media storage, clear data, reboot.

No it didn't work. After a second reboot all the duplicates were back. I will format sd and see what happens.

Try a different music app?
Is it in wrong format?

I'm guessing that the problem started after tinkering?
Might want this moved to Q and A. Maybe someone there has a solution.

Check if you have a file called ".nomedia" in your music folder. (I don't know why you would have this file but it worth verifying). If you have such a file just delete it.
Yeah .nomedia would prevent the files from being indexed. Delete it if you have them.

Did you delete them from your Picasa album?
Yeah turned off Picasa in google sync disabled the picasa upload app and google+ app and i finally got rid of it by going to settings application then all apps and cleared the gallery app after a couple of times it finally deleted them

Its bullsh*t that you cant delete them like every other picture i had to fully wipe my gallery app in settings and delete everything
Sent from my SPH-L710 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
All I did was go to Picasa and delete the pics I didn't want to keep.
Thats what i did but they was still in my gallery

Actually once you delete them in Picasa they are deleted, at that point you would have resync the device so that it syncs with the app and updates that you deleted the pictures. Then they would dissappear from your gallery.
The reason you could not delete them from the gallery is that those pictures are not actually on your device but on the cloud. They are merely represented in the gallery because you synced it. Once you delete them from Picasa they would have deleted automatically from your gallery once synced.
Have a great day!
