Gallery & Music issues on ICS - Nexus S Themes and Apps

Tried several latest ICS roms so far:
- Ultimate ICS;
- Nexus Beam
- CM9 A17
with both CM9, Glados & Matrix Kernels...
Apart from WIFI issue (which is finally "solved" - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403801 ) there are some others, which made me switch back to Nexus Beam 3.0 (with franco's kernel 2.6.35.14)
Gallery is not showing my old pictures, only new ones...
Music is not showing my music albums fm SD card...
I've waited some 2 hours. Cleared application data. Wiped cache + reflashed each rom.
Nothing helped... Decided to stay with old patched GB kernel as it seemed to be welcomed by my phone.
Anyone knows solution to Gallery & Music problems?
UPDATE: need to wait some more time and photos and music will get available itself

I am also unable to view old photos from within the Gallery app, though the app can see any new pictures I've taken even though they physically reside in the same folder as the old ones...very strange. This problem only happened after wiping my device and doing a clean install. I had previously upgraded to ICS from Gingerbread and didn't experience the problem then, i.e. old pictures showed up fine within the Gallery. For the time being I'm using QuickPic to get around this, but it sure would be nice if Gallery worked the way it is supposed to.
Any thoughts/recommendations for addressing this problem?

hellow guys...
please scroll down your sdcard...
find file ".nomedia"
delete it...
tq...

Thanks for the tip, it doesn't solve my problem. I don't have a .nomedia file in my camera folder or any of its parent folders.

[Q] gallery shows empty

Hi all..I recently flashed XLA6 (russian) my original ROM was XKL3 using CWM and rooted.. After that i was experimenting with germay, again with Indian DDL5 and again XKL3 and finally settled with XLA6. After doing all these.. I noticed that my gallery shows empty even though i have images and videos in my built memory. Picture gallery shows only bluetooth recieved files not copied from PC files. What could be the reason?
Please apologize if this was discussed earlier. I couldn't find similar thread like this..oz column shows only five similar threads.

Option 1. Restart Device
Option 2. Copy all contents to PC and again copy it to Device
I tried restarting it.. May be i shud re transfer the files..
Rescan your media. That should do it. There is an app for that in the Market.
Verstuurd van mijn GT-N7000 met Tapatalk
A tip is to use another gallery than the one provided with the Stock. Quick gallery on the market works very well and is immensely quicker especially if you have a lot of pictures. To increase your speed on the external SD-card (if you have one), you may try SD-Boost from the market.
Problem solved once re format the internal and copied the files again.. It seems after flasshing rom it didn't recognise the folder created by older rom.. Is that the fact?

[ROM][SENSE][10-01-2013] UnoX SENSE4 for Optimus 4X HD - FIRST CUSTOM ROM!

LG O4X UnoX SENSE4 ALPHA RELEASE​You thought you never see a HTC SENSE with BeatsAudio interface on O4X? This is the ALPHA release of SENSE 4.0 (version 2.17.401.2) and using STOCK LG kernel for your LG Optimus 4X HD​
Latest update 10.Jan.2013
Changed build to avoid conflict with team venoms mods, this should be more stock now.
It is now a ClockWorkMod Update.zip using AROMA installer.
alot changed and yet, no GSM is working but i am getting closer.
***STATUS***
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This is very early developer release, more a proof of concept, to help others start porting or even developing roms, without thinking the locked bootloader will limit the distribution. so regular users, will probably not use this for anything since mobile connectivity is not working.
but if you wish to check performance and maybe test some performance here, this is a way to do it and compare.
Any contribution to fixing the RIL driver in this one or other fixes are appreciated, feel free to make patches if you can help improve this.
***WHY***
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So the O4X community have been almost dead and not a single custom rom has been released, primarily because many believe a unlocked bootloader is needed.
WHAT WORKS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
GSM Mobile Radio - NO
AUDIO - YES (+ BEATS AUDIO works fine with headset)
PHOTO CAMERA - YES (FRONT is very,very dark, BACK camera is ok)
VIDEO CAMERA - YES (for now only 1080p recording, 1280x720 closes camera, change in settings)
VIDEO PLAYBACK - YES
MICROPHONE - YES
WIFI - YES
GPS - YES
BLUETOOTH - YES (Wifi seems affected by enabling bluetooth at bootup, and no wifi connectivity exists, so disable BT at bootup)
ROTATION - YES
YOUTUBE - YES
MOST SENSORS - YES
VIBRATION - NO
NFC - YES (No icon when activated, but works fine with included NFCtag+)
PC CONNECTION - NO (not worked on it)
INT / EXT SDCARD - YES (without sdcard, camera cannot save to internal storage)
NOTES ON FIRST USE​
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- First start can take 5-6 minutes due to a process waiting for media scanner.
- in /system folder, you can rename "local.prop1" to "local.prop" , and you can enable adb root.
- its based on v10d, i do not know if the boot.img is required, but remove it if you wish to try it without. (remember to edit md5 checksum file if you do)
- do not try and install recovery from the CWM app, just use it to reboot into cwm, do NOT install recovery, its already in place and modified to work with sense.

you can modify the existing backup, by editing the nandroid.md5 checksum file, remove the "system.ext4.tar" line in the md5 file
and rename the "system.ext4.tar.a" to "system.ext4.tar" . and of course do the same with the real tar file.
then it should look pretty much like old backups
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update:
after the upload,
i have checked GPS and NFC.
GPS is confirmed working
NFC needed fixing but it works now , althoug icon is gone, and the NFCplus app works too, so you can modify tags
wow NICE!! almost had a mini heart attack when i saw this post!:fingers-crossed:
looking forward to working CALL XDD
THX a lot for ur work!!!

i've been stuck in the setup wizard for so long now, i managed to get past the language/locale selection screen but I'm stuck in the next screen where venom setup is.
Anyone managed to get past this screen? can i delete setupwizard to bypass this process?
EDIT: finally get past the setup wizard!!! ultra smooth rom!!!
i know this is ALPHA but thought i should post a list of things i found not working so maybe someone can fix it =)
- Vibration not working
- Google Voice Search not working
- mount ext-sdcard not working
- Flashlight not working
- Whatsapp doesn't work (it says "Tablet is not supported" so i guess there's sth wrong with the IMEI or build.prop)
- pressing "settings" in camera app crash the app itself
- "Share" option is unusable (tested both by email and by Google+)
BUT
- Camera app works GREAT with rear camera!!!!!
- most if not all widgets work (though i didn't test all of them, most of them work!!! without a lag)
- Speaker works

thanks for the report back, and yes, i am aware of the setup screen bug, it also seems to relate to the customization process hanging in the background, so it will hang for some time too, sorry. porting is not always easy
edit: i believe the problem rely in the SIMcard not being detected as you might note, the simcard screen normally shown is not being shown, which asks to insert sim. it also seems the the firmware seems to tell the htc software it is a CDMA phone, so this might also be the problem why gsm is not working. this is seen in the radio log.
- i noted the other things, and flashlight is the only one i am not looking at, as our flashlight is different and can be damaged if i try to make it like a lightbulb i think. (do not know and do not want to find out)
- we got no IMEI yet, since phone is not working, so the whatsapp might have a different issue or as you say, it does not exist. build.prop is pretty much OneX original here.
- external sdcard works fine here, i wonder why you cannot see it in storage settings?
- i do not know why googlevoice do not work, ill check up on it, probably relate to recording format, which i noted only works with AAC and not AMR format.

external sd is not accessible in the default file manager? but if i use another file manager (FX Explorer), i can access the extSD
but in storage settings, everytime i try to unmount the sd, settings.apk crashes
but as an alpha "port" (sort of), the rom is ULTRA-SMOOTH, wish at least GSM call work soon:silly:

ok i see now.
this the the HTC way of having external sdcard, the semi way, since they officially do no longer make many top models with sdcard.
the location of external sdcard is at /mnt/sdcard2 and internal is /mnt/sdcard
let me check up on the unmounting, i already got some fixes, but not GSM, sorry, that require alot more it seems to fix.
about the GSM part, it is strange that both OneX and O4X uses a radio chipset with QUO 6260 radio, but they flash firmware different ways, so that makes it incompatible somehow.
Great job man!
I will join your development as soon as I finish my exams (2-3 weeks) so the LG 4X community gets alive. Will read your thread in the meantime.
Making a backup now while downloading this rom.
Thank you so much for your time and effort Dexter!
Sense 4.1 is actually pretty smooth on our O4X. Too bad radio is somehow turned off. I would rock this rom as my daily once radio gets solved. But for now, everything else seems to be working. Beats works great too. Camera is good, but video FCs.

getting DRM working little better here, i simply copied the generated RSA keys from /data to a tar file and extract it at every boot, but not sure how i get the lgeril to load it now, since its htc based.
for the camera, i simply use a camera from another htc 4.0.4 release and it works fine. probably related to resolution of camera and it works now recording in 1080p as well.

Not enough space. Delete...

Sorry i copied this from another area

I have factory reset the device 3 times deleted everything, flashed using ODIN but no avail. Any body has any solution for this?
I am using:
Stock ROM XXMEB5
Stock Kernel
Stock Recovery
EDIT: Finally Solved the Problem. The phone was not resetting properly, so for users facing this problem there are 2 possible solutions:
1. Flash stock rom, goto stock recovery and from there wipe data if CWM does not do it properly (In my case CWM did not do it properly)
2. The other solution, the info i figured out was that it had to do something with a folder in Android/Data directory. Try to delete folders one by one to see if this fixes the error
I recently updated OTA to 4.1.2 and have suddenly got this same problem today, im not technically that great so all i did was save the files i wanted to keep and did a factory reset but nothing has changed. I can open my pictures in Smart Gallery Lock Free but im also having the problem that nothing deteles properly, everything i delete re-appears when i re enter Smart Gallery
I have tried removing the files directly from "My Files" but it will only work on the extSdCard not sdcard0 its says deleted but doesnt go anywhere.
I have looked at point 2. but i dont know what i can delete without making things worse
Hope somebody can help
same problem in my SGS II, nothing woks, wipe data reset factory i have done every thing nothing works my only alternativ eis using quickpic app

[MOD] Front Facing Video fix for AOSP builds

In all of the current AOSP builds, the forward facing camera video fails because the information is pulled from msm8960-common. We share almost everything in common with the other devices, but our forward facing camera is of lower resolution so the base settings do not work with ff video on the xt907.
This is a relatively simple xml edit that I have played around with. I have tested on CM10.1 rc and CM10.2 nightly with the stock camera and hangouts video (it starts ok with hangouts, but I'm not where I can have a conversation with anyone right now so ymmv). It should work on all of the aosp based builds.
To apply use a root enabled file explorer, in directory...... delete your existing media_profiles.xml (or add .bak extension). copy this file, remove the .txt extension, and set permissions to rw-r-r then reboot.
I will try and get a flashable zip up later if anyone wants it. That way, you can simply flash it after flashing your rom of choice if you are running nightlies or like to try new builds often.
Let me know if it works or if anything looks like it needs tweaking.
********Update********
it may be necessary to clear data on camera/gallery app after updating the media_profiles.xml file
also adding flashable zip file

hmm, having some troubles getting the file to download - just showing up as a text in my browser....
edit: just copied to a notepad, saved it, and e-mail it to myself. downloaded it, placed it in the "system/etc" folder, changed permissions, rebooted.... but no dice for me, still get a force close. wondering if it has to do with me being on AOKP, since you said this is for AOSP ROMs....

Easiest way is to right click the file and save as.
Couple of questions. Which app is force closing, is it the camera? and Which AOKP are you on? I have most of them downloaded. I will try to flash it and see if I can figure it out.

well, the official message is that the gallery has stop responding (same as before) - but this happens when I attempt to launch camcorder in front-facing mode - so yes, it is camera, but I think android refers to it as "gallery".
i believe that video calls for hangouts works fine though (but I'll test again tonight).
I'm on the "unofficial" AOKP ROM

OK, thanks. You might have to clear the data in the gallery app, I'm not sure. I got the video camera to work on the AOKP 4.3 9/11 nightly, but I flashed the update zip that I made to test it and it was a fresh install. I couldn't do much testing though because I got the AOSP keyboard is force closing problem.
I will update the OP in a little bit with the flashable zip file.

got it working now.
i downloaded the file this time, e-mailed it to myself, copied it to the "system/etc" folder, changed permissions, renamed the org as .bak, renamed the new file as .xml, then rebooted. after reboot, I went into the camera app and once again got a force close. however, I tried playing around with the settings "record mode" from 1020 to 480, and then went back to FF camcorder, and it recorded! I then changed the "record mode" back to 1080, and FF camcorder worked just fine.
so I think you are correct, perhaps one needs to clear cache/data in the gallery prior to use.
thanks for the tip and the mod! nice work!
to resolve your AOSP keyboard force closing problem, try wiping system before installing the update. this worked for me.
Bit of thread necro, I know... But it's for a good cause.
Have you pushed this fix to CM? I am looking into what exactly needs to change in the source, I suppose we can fix this somehow from CM, and then all of the ROM's will be fixed (assuming they all update with the fix )
The flashable zip worked perfect for me. Thank you so much!

[Q] Can't record or play video in 6.0 Marshmallow concept

NOTE: I know MM is still in beta and there will be issues and bugs. But for most the most part it is an amazing rom and it seems like nobody has this issue except me...
After booting into any version of MM (2099 -2134/Viperx) everything seems fine. But after a few minutes i lose the ability to record or playback video. All across the device (video in facebook, youtube) i get errors or black screens. When playing video in gallery I do get sound but with a black screen. Clearing cache of camera or any other app doesn't help. Only a reboot gives a temporary solution, because after a few minutes it starts all over again.
errors:
Camera: after 1 sec. of recording ' unknown error'
Youtube: ' There was a problem while playing touch to retry'
I always do a clean install of new ROMs, and did a factory reset+reflash multiple times, but to no succes.
Any help?
For anyone still having video playback/recording issues: I found this possible solution on a Xperia z2 forum. I still have no idea what is causing the error or how this fix works. But 24 hours later everything seems to be working.
Here is the original post:
"I assume you unlocked your bootloader. I was also having this problem before. Try renaming these files on /system/etc/firmware/
tzwidevine.b00 -> tzwidevine.b00.bak
tzwidevine.b01 -> tzwidevine.b01.bak
tzwidevine.b02 -> tzwidevine.b02.bak
tzwidevine.b03 -> tzwidevine.b03.bak
tzwidevine.mdt -> tzwidevine.mdt.bak"
Maybe someone can tell me what this fix does?
Anyway use it at your own risk, but it looks promising.

Just to let you know, I'm experiencing the same bug over and over.
For anyone else who was having problems with playback (of old recorded videos) on Concept, I've pretty much isolated the problem and have a solution. I should mention that I only had problems playing back content that was recorded by or stored on my phone. I had no issues with YouTube or any other online media so this fix is specifically for those who can't view their own personally recorded videos through the stock video app.
I noticed that any video I recorded and stored on internal memory played fine, but anything stored on my external SD card resulted in the error message: Cannot Play Video, so I tried moving a video from my SD to my internal and voila, it played fine. In order to remedy this, I simply formatted my entire card as internal by going into Settings > Storage & USB > my SD > 3-dot menu > Format as internal. Everything works as it should now.
WARNING: Formatting your card this way will delete everything off your SD card so make sure you back up first!!

Thanks GoreGaard but how to find their location? I look up via TWRP and failed to locate the files....do I must root first and use root explorer just to find the files?
Oh found it ... must use root explorer first usually I just restart my Z3 D6653 when I experience black screen during youtube and then it's normal again. But I will try to rename those files now and see how long it can go normally.
Btw I use MM concept 3657 on D6653 and working good, fast and I like it
Guys, audio while video recording is too low....is it because of Concept it self?
My story...for what it's worth...
I first installed Concept on an unrooted, vanilla mm, z3c - and everything worked flawlessly.
I then rooted it using the giefroot_v3.1 root exploit (which requires downgrading to fw 23.0.A.2.93, or prior) re-installed Concept, and had the same problem with video recording giving an error message.
Luckily I had made a backup of my DRM keys during the rooting process.
I restored them.
Re-installed Concept, and now all is well again....
renaming the files worked for me on my z3 compact with the newest concept rom MM. unlocked bootloader, Xposed and TWRP.
