I imported my pictures from my computer and can't find them on my phone. How do I get them into gallery so I can use them for my wallpaper.
 
Welcome to the awesomeness that is Android Central.

I think the first thing I would do if I couldn't locate a file would be to get something like ES File Explorer that can perform a thorough search.
 
If you know the location of the folder where the photos are at, then in that same directory, create a blank file and name it ".nomedia". What this will do is force the gallery app to index that folder thus displaying that folder within the app.

Let me rephrase my question. How do I import pictures from my PC to the gallery program on my Maxx?
 
Please re-read my previous post. Do what I suggest to make it happen.

Plug your phone into your computer. Open windows explorer (I'm assuming you're using windows). Open the phone (it should appear as a external drive). Drag and drop photos to the "pictures" folder. You can create subfolders if you want. Galley will see the photos next time you open it.
