Over on the Motoblur forums, myself and a few others using both Defy and Defy+ have a problem with the Gallery. 'Older' pictures (really only 10 days old in my case as the device is brand new) can not be viewed; only the picture icon is seen. However, the pictures are fine and viewable when uploaded to PC.
Deleting the thumbnail sub-folder had no effect.
I am using a new Kingston 32 gig card with very little on it.
Any help much appreciated.
Try installing a different gallery apk. I'm not shure if the apk works in the Defy+ ROM aswell, but you can try, worst case scenario you do a restore from the recovery.

Wroked for me on CM7.1
Compile the link, I can not post cause I'm new to the forum
is it class10? if it is than you got yourself a problem.
if not, try to reformat it, try using quickpic from market, free and fast gallery ap
thanks for replies:
- its a class 4 card.
- installed quickpic and my pictures are back )
- interestingly, when I went back to Gallery, the effected pictures showed momentarily, then disappeared back to the picture icon
- so, do i conclude the Gallery is rubbish? is this a warranty issue?
- how do i make quickpic the default viewer from camera?
(out of interest, and just in case....excuse my ignonance, but do i re-format using Defy+ or via my (Windows 9) PC?)
thanks

Hey folks,
I've recently found out that sometimes when I post a picture from the phone to Picasa it is not completely loaded, meaning the lower bottom of the uploaded pic in Picasa is grey. This happen only for photos that have a fine or superfine resolution (ie never happened for photos 640x480 or 1024x768) and then only for some pictures.
There is no error raised during data transmission from Desire.
Initially thought this was a data receive problem on Picasa server but repeating the upload from the phone of pic in Picasa looks still incomplete.
The same photo moved to PC and loaded from Picasa web interface shows no such issue.
I wonder if anyone else had the same experience and if a solution has been found.
I'm using HTC Desire stock (unbranded) firmware 2.1-update1.
Cheers

I've had this issue, same as you but with stock T-Mobile rom (with 3D Gallery installed)
I've had this issue as well....using gallery3d I think
me too. Stock HTC vanilla rom with the gallery from the nexus one installed. Only happened once, but when it did happen, that one photo repeatedly did the same thing despite looking OK in the Photo app - bottom third was grey.
Me too... Several times.
I am also having this problem with some photos after installing N1 3D gallery (with my previous Motorola Milestone and the same 3D gallery I had no such an issue).It is not just the gallery it is also whole picassa uploader - the same problem occures when i try to upload some photos from stock photo gallery to picasa.
Happened to me also.
Any solutions for this?
I tried to upload via wireless and 3g - same result.
Leedroid 2.2f, Radio 5.10.05.23
Has anyone found a solution to this problem? Currently on a stock ROM on VZW Incredible, Froyo, updated PicasaTool app.
The grey bar on uploads essentially makes the app useless. Thanks
Dan
Same issue here, with desire, desire z and desire hd.
I have this issue with my T-Mobile Sensation 4G, too. Re-uploading the photo sometimes works (but not always).
i dont understand why doesnt google figure out this problem already
Hey Guys
Im running Darkys v8, 2.2.1 everything is good, but in my opinion the gallery iset so good as the stock gallery, so my qestion is how can i get the stock froyo 2.2 gallery ? or can someone post it, couz the gallery in darkys v8 Android 2.2.1 is much slower then the stock one, and the pinch to zoom is horible.
Pleas any idea ?

Its stock JPY(deodexed), works definitely better.

Hey mate, thx for rq,
I just installed this one, but it seems to be the same, when i zoom the pictures, its the same zoom quality, i think the stock gallery app from android 2.2 is much better, but dont know where to finde it :S
^The Gallery app that is linked in the above post gave me issues on Darky's rom with a JPY 2.2.1 base. It didn't build thumbnails properly and showed "no items" when I would try to scroll through the contents of subfolders.
The version of that Gallery was 1.1.30683.
Attached is Gallery 1.1.30682. It seems to work a lot better for me. Give it a shot. Don't forget to clear your current Gallery app data before swapping. (Menu->Settings->Applications->Manage Apps->(show) All->Gallery->Clear Data)
Hope this helps, let me know if it doesn't!
Previous post...upload fail! Here it is.
different Gallery3D.apk tests
I tested different versions of galleries which I've gathered since I started messing with galleries some time ago... I tagged each screenshot and apk with filesize, because I lost track from where each apk came from. I'd appreciate if somebody could help me identify them properly.
these versions are:
Gallery3D.apk 713KB - from post above me
Gallery3D.apk 973KB - probably stock 2.2?
Gallery3D.apk 1021KB - probably stock 2.2.1?
Gallery3D.apk 604KB (desire) - "hacked gallery" - the one which comes with SGS tools, or Darky's ROM 8.0
and results:
- all stock galleries (713, 973, 1021) have same crappy quality whem zooming
+ all stock galleries (713, 973, 1021) have not any ugly pattern over photos when no zoom is applied
+ all stock galleries (713, 973, 1021) are fast
? 1021 stock gallery has backward ordering of photos (newest are first)
+ 604 desire gallery has better quality when zooming probably due to less jpeg compression, and better colors
- 604 desire gallery is slow
- 604 desire gallery has some weird pattern over some images (those which are landscape and viewed in portrait mode and vice versa) when no zoom applied
- Note: when migrating from/to 604 desire gallery, you will loose an option for each photo "show on map" (GPS tags are ok, because it works in 3rd party apps)
(I didn't test any of these galleries for sensor bug, battery drain or whatsoever...)
conclusion:
THEY ALL ****ING SUCK
why the hell does the SGS have 5Mpix camera when you cannot take full advantage of it by zooming your photos?? And don't tell me that the SGS's hardware can't handle 5Mpix photos...
update:
I just switched to JustPictures! app and its great! screw you Gallery3D
update2:
Switched to QuickPic which is simplier than JustPictures! but it performs better
I have froyo 2.2.1 with its stock gallery3d and i noticed that after a few hours of non use, it gets killed and when you start it up it takes forever for it to load all the pictures an folders instaid if been instantaneous.
Has anyone else noticed this?

So, I don't know exactly where this problem started, but now whenever I take a picture with my camera the picture only shows up in the gallery until I reboot my phone. Then the "camera" album disappears until I take a new picture, but only the new picture appears in the album, none of the older ones. the dcim folder o on my sd card has a ton of pictures though.... Any thoughts?

Currently i am running CM9 final 8/10 and experiencing a problem deleting photos using the gallery app.
1. Set camera Storage: SD Card.
2. Take picture.
3. Open Gallery, delete picture taken in step 2.
4. Using Solid Explorer (or similar) navigate to /sdcard/DCIM/Camera-- picture taken in step 2 is still there.
In fact, after a reboot the picture will re-appear in Gallery. It seems that Gallery is deleting the photo from the media index, but not the actual photo on the SD Card.
Quick Google search brings up similar issues on other devices but no solution. Can someone confirm this issue, and maybe help resolve?

i am having some serious problems with the built in gallery app. i have few folders with over 300 pics in them. everything is nice and smooth until im trying to open some of the last pics in the folder. i tap on it...it opens all blurry, hangs for about 3-4 seconds then it's ok....if i swype to the next on same thing.....3-4 seconds on each pic. if i open pics from the begging of the folder or in folders with fewer pics they work perfectly fine. i have tried different sdhc cards, hard reset. the only way this works is with other gallyer app like gallery ics or any other gallery app or file manager that has built in viewer.
now....i dont know if its an issue with folders with alot of pics in it......or if its an issue with the built in gallery app not handeling some pics taken with other devices.
do u have this issue?
Could those pics be of a higher resolution than the rest? It takes awhile for the higher res pics to load.
