Photos you don't want in gallery - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Anyone know how to have pics saved on your phone that won't show up in gallery? I created a new folder and put some pics in there and then the new folder shows up in my gallery and if u delete from gallery it deletes the pics or folder from the phone which is not what I want.

Put a .nomedia file in the folder you don't want gallery to scan.

Or a . in front of the folder name like this: .folder

It's stille there but some apps are unable to see it. I use root browser and that's able tot view it. In mxplayer there is a setting to display hidden folders (with a .) so maybe there is also in the app you're using.

It should show up in your downloads folder or the subfolder of whatever browser youre using

How do I get rid of these random images?

They show up in my gallery repeatedly. They look like malware pictures. I removed all of them once and they came back. So I looked at the details and found the file location. Removed the files. A day later they're back once again.

Some app is putting them there. I know that the Geico app puts silly pics on your phone.
Why is this an acceptable practice? It's like those airpush ads.
I deleted the whole appcache file and it still came back.

Torrents, stop using them on your phone lol.
Do you have any sideload games folders on your memory card? If you do, Gallery will create thumbnail images from those folders. The only way to tell the gallery not to read those folder is you must have .nomedia file in those folders. Good luck.

This might be the closest assumption to whats causing the problem. But its so convient to download torrents straight to my phone lol.

Viewing Pics on Ext SD Card via Meenova and Root Explorer

So I just got my Meenove today and I loaded it up and used root explorer to navigate to the card. I find the folder with my pics, but I can only view one at a time.
Does anyone know of an app that will allow me to open the entire folder and scroll though the pics rather than having to click the thumb nail and than click back and repeat to go through the pics.
