[Q] Gallery Broken? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, I just upgraded from Beast 19/12 to Beast 24/12 and my gallery app seems to be broken somehow by it(?) or maybe broken anyway.... I can't open pictures on my phone (it gets stuck) and when I enter the gallery app settings (which happened in 19/12 as well) it stops working.
also I wanted to know if there's an option of opening the gallery from the external SD card and if there's an option to save from the camera to the external as well.... Thanks in advance

[Q] Gallary help

Friends I have problem with my gallary it force close every time whenever I try to open it .I m unable to open my photos plz help.
could you tell ur problem in more detail .. cozz gallary app is a stock app it can be very laggy but should not force close what so ever... do you mean to say that you are not able to view the images ... or is it something else????
Yah I mean whenever I try to open gallary to view my photos it pop to force close dialogue box just after 1calphos: 1-2 sec
Here's a quick test you can try...
Unmount both your internal and external SD cards (Settings -> SD Card and Phone Storage).
Then launch the Gallery. If it opens fine, the problem is likely a corrupt image or video that the Gallery is trying to read.
davanw I done what u wrote but I didnt help actually gallary app is woeking but albums r not loading force close option pop after loading few albums even 3d gallary flikie also have same problem it also close at same point plz help

yes most likely its one of the images that screws it up, remove all and then add them one by one and youll find it
Try clearing the data from the gallery app in settings then reboot.
Settings >Applications >Manage Applications >filter all, then scroll down to the gallery app and clear data.
ThanxsFriends its solved its created by flike wallpaper gallery thanxa for ur coperation

[Q] custom ringtone and photos problem ?

Hi all,
I have my brand new IS for a while. I had no problem with setting a custom ringtone or photos taken by cam. but a while ago (im not sure when or why) it starts to behave weird. the device doesn't see my music files anymore, i can not choose any custom ringtone. After running Music app, it says "No Music Found" but i can see the file is there( via Astro File Manager etc.).
Same thing happened for photos, too. after taking photos, i can't see them with Gallery app but i see they are in sdcard/DCIM/100MEDIA as usual?
Hope i could tell the problem, any help appreciated..
The apps seem very very bad at refreshing new data off the sdcard. I find unmounting/mounting does the trick.

Thanks for the repy but it doesn't work. Neither Unmount > Mount nor Disable Fast Boot>Unmount>Reboot . I can not see previous photos taken with phone even by the quick button at camera screen.
I can change ringtone by an external app like "Android Movie or Zedge etc." But after restarting the device, it selects default one that shipped with the phone and ignore my custom ringtones.. really weird..
Is a common problem in stock. I thought that making remounting the SD card and afterwards make a photo and than go to gallery should start the reindex. Than start your HTC music app. Should have everything in it by then.
Note: reindexing can take a little while.

Not working..
What i did: Unmount > Mount SDCard. Take a photo > Go to gallery. After a quick refreshing process, there's only latest photo. After a reboot, latest photo is gone, too. Yet no tracks in Music
Just a wild guess, maybe your sdcard is corrupted? FAT32 is very easy to get into such problem. Perhaps you can do a scandisk from a PC.

[Q] issues with Pictures and Mp3 files

i have a HTC Incredible S unbranded . For the last couple of days i have noticed that some of the pics that i download or take using the camera are not visible in the Gallery app of the phone. The same happens with some mp3 files which i have copied on the SD Card.
These files are visible when viewed in a file manager like Astro or OI File Manager.
If i reboot the phone couple of times or do a factory reset these files reappear in the Gallery and the HTC Music App , but only for a few days.
Is my SD Card corrupt or is there a fix for this?
I just noticed the same over the weekend. Some pics I took Friday do not show in gallery but I can find them through ES File Explorer...
This used to happen to me, just unmount and remount the SD Card and they'll reappear. Hasn't happened yet since the OTA to Gingerbread.
I unmounted and remounted the SD Card and its fine for the moment. Just waiting for the 2.3.3 update to hit India.
I've been updated to Gingerbread now since it was released in the UK, this is the standard OTA update.
I've also just noticed in the last week that some recent photos I took at the weekend are not showing up in Gallery. If I reboot the phone they appear again (for a while), clearing the cache/data in the app manager doesn't work. Even after rebooting to make them appear, they have disappeared again after a day.
When I open the Gallery program, the rotating 'refresh' icon is present, but some photos just don't appear in there.
I can find and open the photos using a File Explorer (Speed Software's Explorer v1.0), just not with the Gallery app.
I downloaded FxCamera last week, I wonder if this has caused some sort of corruption as it couldn't open the Gallery from inside the app...? I just uninstalled it and have rebooted my phone, I'll see if this fixes the problem.
Any other ideas anyone?
well after the gingerbread update , the pictures and the mp3's disappeared once. Did the unmount and remount thingie and it has reappeared. Also Wifi is now broken.
I noticed that for some wallpapers
not showing on Gallery.

To quote myself and report back on my findings, after I uninstalled FxCamera, I haven't lost any of my files in Gallery again. So I blame that app for my problems with missing images!
(If you don't have that installed but are still seeing the issue, then it must be something else on your device... (obviously!))
Cheers.
Certainly seems like an issue with some app interfering here.
No problem with my IS before or after 2.3.3 update.
i suggest you try with all stock apps (camera, music & pictures related) for a few days & see if this solves your issue.

The best place to start is wth a bit more info. We wont know how to help until we know how you got here.
What ROM are you running?
What base firmware?
Has the phone always done this or only started recently?
Are there any pop-up error messages when gallery closes?
Have you tried clearing the cache ad data from the gallery app?
Can a third party gallery app (like QuickPic) access your photos?
Have you tried backing up your SD card contents and re-formatting the SD card?
Running stock with latest int firmware
It started last week, never had such issue before
No FCs or any other popups
clearing the cache ad data from the gallery app did not work
a third party gallery app works fine
I think the only other thing to try is to wipe the device clean & start over
I appreciate your support

[Q] KitKat camera app default storage

Hi All,
i just install CM11 by freexperia in my xperia SP.
i found the camera app default storage is not SD card. but i cannot set it to use SD card as default storage. anyone know how?
thanks your help!

I'm interested in the answer to this and also whether or not you can change the default gallery app when you swipe to the left (I would rather use Quick Pic).
