I recently flashed my EVO from CM6 over to the alpha Gingerbread Rom. No issues there, love the new ROM but one thing I noticed was that anytime I scroll over to my Gallery, it says I do not have any pics or vids to view. Same issue when i go to my music app, no music. But I can open up Linda Manager or File Manager and all my pics, vids, and music is there. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I am lost!

What folder are they are in on your SD card? And when you take new pictures do they show up in the gallery or not their either? It may be that the Gallery is somehow not detecting pictures, or the old pictures are just not in a place where it can.
HELP!!
I am having this same problem with my phone. I am rooted with unrevoked 3 and now when I take a pic it will show up in my gallery until i reboot my phone then they dont. I can plug my phone up to my computer and they are in the DCMI folder on my sd card. When I unplug my phone from the computer and go back in to my phone they are not there. What would be causing this? I have not put any roms on my phone or changed any kernels.
It's probably a really odd SD card issue. Try going into settings & unmounting then mounting the sd card again. If that doesn't work it could be an issue with the media scanner. Download an app that lets you manually run the media scanner. I know Widgetsoid 2.x has a media scanner toggle. If you can't find another way, download the app & make a 1x1 toggle widget with the media scanner, apply, and tap it.
If that doesn't work, I'm stumped.
I tried that but I couldnt get the widget to actually do anything. Thank you though
I believe the sdcard is the cause, because I've had a similar issue myself and fixed it. I would suggest either re-flashing the rom, or backing up your sdcard and then formatting it, and copy it back over. Also, if you have, in particular, a folder with a lot of pictures in it, I had one with like 300+ because it was an animation, that too slowed it down.
Did you check the folders to make sure there aren't .nomedia files in them? I'm not quite sure how they would get there unless an app put them there.
Have you removed any system files? If so, you could've removed something that keeps the media scanner from running, or possibly removed the media scanner altogether.
Last idea - have you tried opening the files from the sd card to their respective apps? Open the images with the gallery & maybe they'll show up?
Last, last idea - if you're using stock apps, try downloading a third party gallery and/or music player. I use QuickPic, it's fast & caches images so if you can get them to show up in app, they should remain after a reboot.
I'm tapped out of ideas :/
Hello.
After restarting phone i can not see pictures and videos in the Gallery. it's empty. I have seen there is no .nomedia file. Then i have captured some pictures and they are appear in the Gallery but old pictures not. i can see they from file manager. how can i return my old gallery??
p.s. i have no memory card
p.s.2 my phone is Motorola Droid Razr M - android 4.4.2
i've a GS2 and all pictures and videos i take are saved on the phone's internal memory. I installed google+ and my pictures and videos upload directly to google+. Lately, my brother told me about picasa and since i need to manage my phone's memory, i was wondering if:
1- can the pictures and videos uploaded from my phone to google+ be saved on picasa too? and how?
2- to save memory on my 16gig GS2, can i delete the pics and videos from my phone once they are uploaded to picasa or google+?
3- If i get another android phone, can i easily access my pics and videos saved on google+ and/or picasa from the new phone ( the new GS3)?
I will appreciate any instructions or assistance on these questions since i am new to all this cloud thing.
1. I use picasa and when i have auto upload on in Google+ they are also automadically in picasa as well.
2. Yes you can.
3. You can use the gallery app that comes with the phone. if your setup with your google account you will see you pictures that are out in picasa as well.
I flashed Viscous JB Rom to my Verizon GNEX, and everything went relatively well. The only issue was the gallery wasn't working. I could only see local storage, not my picasa/google+ web albums. I did some searching and found gapps "JRO03C GApps Package 08/11/12". It claimed to fix the gallery and it sort of did. Now I can see my picasa/google+ web albums, but for whatever reason, I can't do anything with the photos beyond viewing them. If I try to edit them using aviary for example, it says, "Cannot download photo at this time". If I try upload them to facebook or instagram, the app just does nothing upon selecting the photo. It appears to be a problem with the URI used to fetch the photo, but I'm not even sure of that. Our nexus 7 tablet is running the exact same version of gallery as i flashed, and it can do any of those functions flawlessly, so I don't think its the gallery version (1.1.40000). Is there a separate photo picker in android that I can flash somehow? Any suggestions? Upload works fine. This is a big problem for me because I have thousands of photos in my picasa web albums and use them pretty regularly.

I have the exact same problem, have you found a solution?
Hello guys! Greetings from a newcomer to these forums!
I would like to know if any of you know how to get rid of the facebook albums that appeared in my gallery on my S3. i've tried conventional tactics like trying to delete, unsync, etc...but to no avail.
Also, is there any way to set where a certain file ends up such as where a picture goes when you take a picture with the camera app? I've moved the folder where the picture gets sent too via the "My Files" icon and moved that folder to my SD card but when i take a picture it still ends up in a new folder on my phone memory.
One more question. I have a Picasas album which I cannot delete as well in my gallery, any advice?
Apologize in advance about all the questions and I appreciate your responses!
You even get your picasa web albums... even if you tell it not to sync albums in sync settings. So I froze the default gallery, and use QuickPic as my daily driver.

Exactly what I did. I fooled around for 25 minutes trying to remove that extra junky: Samsung failed hard here. QuickPic is great: fast and you can pick which folders to show!
So I am on the Android 10 beta program and ever since I installed it I have been having issues accessing my pictures in my apps. In Telegram I have to do a long work around with having to manually go to my pictures folder. In Messenger most of my pictures just aren't showing up at all. Is there some way I can link the folders so they are automatically detected by apps or something?
