Maybe the pics' thumbnails got corrupted. I think they are generated and stored somewhere, but don't know where.
Try cleaning your sd-card of useless cache and stuff.

Try to unmount/mount sd card.
If there is no result try to fix partitions from 4ext recovery.
Try any third party apps like quickpic and see if it fixes for you. I never use stock gallery because quickpic is super fast and easy to use.

Can someone tell me how go put all my apps somewhere whenever I flash a new rom? I always have to download everything again-_- and also my gmail contacts aren't saved from where they were saved on previous roms..any help? Thanks

Titanium Backup does this. You can backup/restore apps & settings. Also, you can extract the .apk files and copy them to your sd card.

You Can Also Try AppMonster!

I'll second the Titanium Backup recommendation, makes it easy to get your apps back where they were after your flash a new ROM or wipe. It's a must have app for any Android phone IMO and is good enough to be a sole reason for rooting (I rooted my mom's OG Droid just so she could use TB)
Is there a auto install for titanium? Instead if running batch and clicking install for every app?

The paid version doesn't require you to click install for every app (it's a true batch operation).

make sure that your data and contacts are syncing with google, you can do that by menu>settings>accounts>autosync
My media files on the external card are showing up twice. However, only one of each file actually works. The doubled music files don't play and the doubled pictures don't show anything.
I'm running infamous ics rom with venom kernel. I've searched and seen a couple comments on this but no solution. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

I get this issue every now and then
Try this, it works for me
Go to
/data/data
Find and delete folder
com.android.providers.media
(don't worry it will recreate itself when you reboot)
Reboot.
good luck

***Original Post***
Hey,
So this happened day before yesterday, on CM9 beta 5, my photos didn't show up in my gallery, I booted into recovery, mounted and unmounted my sdcard, cleared cache and stuff, to no avail. Today, I installed HTC One maXimus 3.0 with a full wipe, but didn't fix anything. However, what I've noticed is, if a picture is placed in the root of a folder in the sdcard, it shows up, but only if I cut and paste photos there, the ones already in the folder didn't show up either.
What I mean is:
I have a folder, /sdcard/DCIM.
The pictures that were in that directory didn't show up either. But, when I moved pictures from sdcard/DCIM/100Media to sdcard/DCIM, they showed up in the gallery.
I have another folder, /sdcard/pictures.
It has two folders inside it, 'Screenshots,' and 'Instagram.' Those photos weren't showing up either. But, when I moved them into /sdcard/Pictures, they showed up.
The biggest problem, even the pictures I take on the camera, don't show up in the gallery.
The only thing I believe is left is for me to make a backup of my sdcard, then format the sdcard, put everything back, and create new folders for the pictures and place em there.
If you have any suggestions other than that, please post it here. Id really appreciate it and will remember to hit the thanks button too!

Check to see if there is a .nomedia file in your root directory. If there is, delete it and rescan.

I deleted the file, and rebooted, problem is all there. How do I rescan?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Check that the file has not reappeared. I think this is a bug from ROM Manager which has just been fixed in the latest version. So may need to update ROM Manager too.
The .nomedia file tells the photo gallery and music player that there is no media there and to ignore any it sees. If it is in the root directory then it will not see any media files in any directory

It isn't there, and I don't have Rom manager :S

You may just have to wait a while and it will update the gallery/music automatically. Sorry I can't be more help, but if you did have that .nomedia file, it would have stopped your apps seeing the files

Also try deleting the app data

See my post "reset the mediadatabase". ICS stores every medialink in a database, so that no other app has to search mediafiles (vids, pictures and music) in the storage everytime. If this database is corrupted, ICS will not find any new data by this moment. The way I described in my post fixed the problem.

install this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.droida.nomedia&hl=en
find the folder where the videos are stored, make it red (if its currently white) then make white again.
reboot.
IF after a reboot, they still aren't showing, go into settings>apps>gallery and clear data. (then reboot again)
if that doesn't work, try a normal file explorer (make sure the settings within this explorer are set to view system files) and browse to the folder. look for a file called .nomedia and delete it.
then reboot again, might need to clear data for gallery app again. (and another final reboot)
sometimes straight after the reboot nothing at all will show, it can take a little while, so get on with everything else, go back to gallery in 10 mins and it should have re populated all your albums
Thank you for your help,but dont work for me.I think it's an issue of format.video from whatsapp have .MOV ending.I renamed them into .mp4 an then videos shown.

Recently loaded some wallpapers into my internal storage.
Some of them don't appear-- they show up as black boxes.
I've tried going into Apps and Clearing Cache/Clearing Data for the Gallery app.
But to no avail.
Everyone uses QuickPic, and this is one reason why.
This happened to me too, it ended up corrupting my other images and videos
Just installed QuickPic, same problem.

ES shows me thumbnails of the pictures, but doesn't allow me to open them.
This is a very interesting problem.
No problems here.
What rom are you using?
Try clearing data for Media Storage then reboot.

I'm using the latest CM10 nightly.
I cleared the data then rebooted and couldn't even get my Gallery to open.
Had to Nandroid backup to get everything running again.
