Missing Photos From The Gallery

[jettca1]

My Nexus doesn't lose the photos but it just doesn't show them to me. I installed quikpic and it works just fine.

This is the exact state of things on my NS4G.

My gripe is that the corruption of the Gallery's database (or whatever the problem is that makes it unable to see pictures that QuickPic can) breaks the instant upload feature of Google Plus, which I've fallen in love with.

So does anyone have a bright idea of how to repair the brokenness (whatever it may be)?

I have found a reboot works very well for the disappearing pictures, but has anyone noticed the gallery is kinda slow on the Nexus S.

What is the reboot you found? And does it delete anything?

Did any of you use Picasa?
I've never had any trouble with pics disappearing, even through rooting. I've had some thumbnails I CAN'T get rid of with the native Gallery app. All of them were resized in Picasa.

I cleaned out Picasa on the PC. There are no images there. Google still thinks there are.
These thumbnails cannot be seen by any app but the default Gallery. ES File manager doesn't see them, neither does Image Shrink or the replacement Gallery I just installed.

I think I worked with these pictures on another phone. When I got the Nexus, I only installed the pictures I wanted from the computer backup. I do not use Google backup. As soon as I put in Gmail account - there were the thumbnails. The Nexus was stock with GB when I got it, rooted it, re rooted with CM7.1 after ICS. Did CM 7.2, and now CM9. All of those installs said they were wiping phone. After root - just transferred pics again from computer, all well and good until I put in Gmail account. The damn thumbnails are back! So Picasa and Google have wires crossed somewhere. In fact, Dashboard on the PC insists there are photos in Picasa, but if you click on a link, there are no photos.

Gallery will also not recognize a rename of a file. I'll use ES File Manager to rename, but default Gallery will not see it.

Downloaded another version of Gallery from Play - it doesn't see the pics and let me delete the placeholders that showed up. Default Gallery is disabled.

You can also try to transfer whatever pictures you lost back to your phone.

If DCIM folder disappeared
Try :
Internal storage>.estrongs
Then find "Recycle" folder then open "recycled contents/items"
Open it then you will find DCIM folder there , cut it and paste to SD card location.

Yes I think most of us have experienced this. Many of my pictures have gone missing but later on they reappear.
