Just so we understand, is this what you did?
Turned off the old phone.
Inserted the SD card.
Turned on the old phone.
Mounted the SD card.
Copied the images from the internal "disk" to the SD card using a file browser app.
Turned off the old phone.
Removed the card.
Turned off the new phone.
Inserted the SD card.
Turned on the new phone.
mounted the SD card.

If you use a file browser, can you see the image files on the SD card?
If your image viewer app supports an SD card, can the viewer see the files? Can it view the images?

If you put the SD card in a card reader attached to your computer, can the computer see the files on the card?
