Gallery app force closing? - Samsung Captivate Glide

The stock gallery app force closes and tells me there isn't enough memory and tells me to delete some items. I figured I was low on RAM but I had only 460MB in use. Cleared memory and no luck still. This is only app that does this. Does anyone have an idea to fix this?
EDIT: After a reboot, it now tells me media scanner running. Media scanner has been done for a few minutes.

Nardholio rom has a media scanner issue that hasn't been fixed yet, at least that's what I heard

I think I fixed it. I looked at storage and apparently it does that when the USB storage is full. I can't figure out what folder is USB storage though so I had to delete stuff. With 3.63 of 3.75 gb used gallery works again. Someone know where the USB storage folder is?

TB breaking apps on Intergration...

Any help here would be appreciated. This happened twice with google maps and once with facebook. Instead of integrating, apps are being removed from phone.
I am on stangs rom the latest official deodexed gingerbread rom...never had this problem before.
Are you restoring data+apps? And if so what Rom did u back them up with?
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
Nah. When I install a new rom (like this one for instance) I only restore user apps and data. I leave all the internal apps alone.
Soo after getting updates for internal apps (like Gmail/Maps/Facebook) I use the intergrate button and then **poof** the apps are removed. Icon still shows up under system/apps in Root Explorer but the app and icon don't show up anymore on phone.
So what do you guys recommend? Should I just do this manually in Root Explorer? How can I integrate on my own to save some space?
Just wanted to bump. I know I can do this the reverse way while rooted. I guess by removing the app and reinstalling again but anyone else have any ideas?
Still getting this problem.
How much free space is is /system? TB may fail on moving if there is not enough space free.

Hmmm I bet you are on to something. Only about 3-4 mb free. Even though I can free up about another 40 mb by deleting an app.disabled folder I created. Thanks man I bet this is why.

Phone memory

Hi,
My arc's internal memory left is 11mb which is 3%.
I have rooted & deleted many big apps. I don't have many text messages but 4 email accounts.
Only downloaded phone apps are SwiftKey, zdbox, titanium backup pro & beautiful widgets.
Due to this I often get lag, home screens removing every widgets and apps rearranging themselves after reboot. If I don't reboot its often unusable. I can no longer download apps on the market or update sone apps.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Just interested as I haven't heard of anyone else with the same problem before.
I originally intended to keep this phone for long but will now just wait for a successor with more memory.
Really frustrating as I had a xperia x1 before with many text messages and emails without issues.

Try Link2SD or App2SD for the internal memory issue.
And for speed up your device, I recommend the V6 Supercharger.

you only isntalled 4 apps and only 11mb remaining ?
i installed lots 8 apps, and lots of games. most games can be moved to sd, but some cannot and uses phone internal memory, and i still have around 100mb free space..

I have 126 user apps installed... with link2sd Still 132MB internal memory free. And yes, try Supercharger.
I have 4 apps on the phone because they wouldn't work very well if I transfered them to sd card.
But other apps that can't be transferred I have already done so when I rooted my phone. I even deleted bloatware.
Seriously I am completely stumped why I'm so low in memory & it keeps getting lower, 1 month ago it was 10%.
Maybe it's my email? I have 2 Gmail & 2 hotmail accounts. The 2 Gmail doesn't get used though as I put manual download for emails.
Thanks for the replies!

I think you should do a factory reset and install each app step by step, so you can see which app is using that much memory.
I'll do that thanks... Do you know if there's anyway to save the playlists on music player though as I don't really wanna reorganise all my music...

try clearing cache first.. that can get huge sometimes.

Try to backup your playlists on your sdcard.
simple reflash first.
Thanks I just factory reset & now I have 50% memory. Which still don't make sense now as I have installed more apps on phone & kept all original text messages.
I reckon I might have had some kind of malware or virus beforehand.

bloatware (apps which instaled on phone before you buy it)
Nah wasn't bloatware as I permanently deleted them when phone was rooted. Though I did install some non market apps before, which I reckon installed hidden malware or app that was taking the memory.

No External Storage Available

I was running Axiom 2.4 and decided to transition to codename droid. I unfortunately didn't wipe until after it installed. Well all is well with everything except that the gallery says no external storage available even though all the media is right behind. I'll do whatever to fix it. I just don't know if I have to sbf or factory reset again or what?

Cyanogen 9 nightly build by Shabby

My gallery doesn't see storage anymore if I flash past 8/02/12
Is this just the way it is or is there a way to fix it?
Thanks!

Storage has swapped since then to correct locations. For many things Internal will have swapped for External and vice versa.
There are a few things that have been in progress since then. 1, a couple of AOSP/CM9 acceptable schemes have been tried the final has been arrived at
2, some issues with applications have arisen, i think this is generally fixed
3, i know the latest issue is deleting in gallery isn't working right.
The nightlies are built off Chris's latest committed code. The changes in storage are permanent so some of your applications / defaults will be backwards from what your used to. The issues however are and or will be fixed and they were known about it the day they showed up.
I know a few people reported files being there and they could not see them at all. I have been working from clean installs with no issues. Pictures that were taken with the 7-17 nightly were stored on the storage device they were originally and the camera now saves to the new location both are visible in gallery for example. Not 100% sure but i believe the SD card is now the default write location.
The gallery says there is no external storage available.

What info would help? All I know with my naked eye is that the storage seems to flip flop or something. The gallery says there is no external storage available. I tried to get a screenshot with the built in screenshot feature but because it sees no storage it won't save it.

Well if your coming from a TW Kernel nightly (7/31 or older) to a source kernel nightly (8/02 +) to one of the newer source kernel nightlies I would recommend a clean install i mean storage has changed atleast 3 times.
As per Chris's notes I did notice that the option inside storage was checked causing emmc to be mounted as external_sd. But everything is working for me on a clean install either or. Problems can only really be solved once you get that out of the way. Otherwise revert to whatever you liked and be prepared to do a clean install when we go official. I can only recommend it when such a leap occurs.

Storing photos to external storage

So i have tmobile samsung note 2 I recently updated to 4.3 and have a few questions.
When it was running 4.1.2 I was able to set the camera storage to external, after the update it automatically reverts back to
Internal storage. Anyone know how I can fix this?
Also in gallery when I try to move the photos to external it says "it cannot move because it exist already" even though does not. Help?
Thanks all

Anyone?
I believe there is a xposed mod, although I don't use them, that allows you to save to the sd. Also the Lenovo super camera allows
