Same here.
The new gallery app seems almost useless. I want my old one back.
I want the app to also allow me to sorry folders (albums). The way it works now, those folders are sorted with the oldest ones on top. I have years of photos and photo folders there copied onto the phone. I have to spend several minutes scrolling all the way to the last ones to see the most recent photos just taken. How lame is that? Anyone have any ideas?
I haven't tested because i do not want my drop box photos showing.
1. Make sure you have the drop box account added from the market. (I came from a Note 3 and drop box was automatically installed but it is not with 5).
2. Go to settings > accounts. Click the plus to add an account. It will show you all your aps. Drop box will not be highlighted, select it.
3. When you select and re-sign in, you will be asked about photo uploads.
4. Make sure you have sync turned on. This is the step I did not do.

I am having a problem with transferring photos from my pc to my phone.
No matter what file I try to transfer them to. They won't be recognized. Like they don't even exist.
I try to transfer them again to the same file to see if maybe it did not work but it says they are there. But when I go to check my gallery, there is no sign of them.
What is going on? Do I have a virus? Can anyone help?
Thanks.

i hate the built-in gallery try to download quickpic (alot of option + fast )
or try to clear cache
OK so that helped with updating my contact pictures list, but I originally wanted to update my wallpaper. I use multi picture live wallpaper. And like I said any new picture I put onto my phone is just not recognized.
I'm just directly put my photos under a folder created by myself in the internal storage.

I have actually done that, but alas did not make a difference. If it makes any difference. I notice that whenever I either plug in my phone into my pc and/or move photos around the "Media Scanner Running" icon notifies me on and off for about 5 minutes even after I have finished. And it as well tends to randomly close any app and the app drawer when I open it.
OK just replying to myself but haha I am becoming more and more frustrated with this. It is also affecting my music as well. I transfer the music files from my pc to my phone and they are only in "My Files" app section. Not found in any of my music players.
Now I have recently downloaded a few apps for customization. Such as ADW Launcher EX, Widget locker, and a few others.
Would any of those somehow change things in my phone. I did pay for them.
Make sure there isn't a .nomedia hidden file in the directory where you placed your picture. Additionally unless you use a media scanning app to force media scan, you will need to restart your phone.

I think I am going to assume there is something wrong with my media scanner on my phone. It is always running and constantly popping up saying it is running, then force closing anything I have open.
hi all
i've formatted my completely stock HTC ONE after upgrading to 4.3 and i found 2 issues:
1. when i transferred my pictures and videos from laptop to the phone all photos and videos were showing the same date of transfer and when i view them in gallery the videos appear all one after another , not like how i took them...few photos, one video and one zoe...etc. Its like showing all photos and when scrolling down all videos...
is there a way to fix this? i have a lot of photos from my travel and i would like to keep them in the correct order.
2. my apps where automatically re installed cz i backed everything up on my google account ( an option in the phone ) so i found some of the apps have those old three dots in the lower side of the screen for the settings, the ones cancelled by the 4.2.2 upgrade. anybody knows how i got those back??? shall uninstall and re install again?
any help is appreciated
Thank you
Jamel

Guys - this problem is driving me up the wall.
I've tried for hours to fix it, but can't find a solution.
When in WhatsApp, when I click the paperclip to attach, then Gallery, it takes me to the "WhatsApp gallery" thing which has all my photos etc. in it. Using the 3 dot menu I can then also choose to go to HTC Gallery or Google Photos instead. That's all fine.
However, when I select an image in the "WhatsApp gallery" and hit the send button, it WILL NOT send no matter what I do. It just returns to that "WhatsApp gallery" home screen with all the folders.
The ridiculous thing is if, by using the 3 dot button and selecting one, I go to either HTC Gallery or Google Photos, I can send anything just fine.
It is simply this stupid intermediate screen that doesn't work!!!!
What is it? And how can I fix it / get rid of it / set default to HTC Gallery?
I've tried clearing data for Gallery & WhatsApp, uninstalling WhatsApp, installing WhatsApp+, moving DCIM folder contents around - you name it, I've tried it to the best of my knowledge.
Please someone tell me what the problem is here, because although it's a very small thing, I use it daily and it's driving me mad!!
Thanks

Hello everyone,
I have 2 note 4s from T-mobile and recently started to have issues with images.
On my rooted note 4, i cannot seem to save any photos from from text messages into the gallery.
On my non-rooter note 4, i cannot save any pictures from text messages or anywhere else. Also I cleared the cache of the media storage and that wiped everything out and I thought after restarting, it would all come back, but it has not. I have checked using Root Explorer, all my photos are in the DCIM/Camera folder but the items are not in the gallery app.
Can someone please advise what can be done in order to get this fixed because it has been going on for over a month now.
Anyone???
Check if there in not ".nomedia" file in your picture folder. Delete it if you have one. Another trick you may try. Move your pictures to another folder, open gallery and let it rebuilt tumbnails. Close gallery and move pictures back. It did help me once.

Help needed! I have a Note 9 on At&t. I have attached the path where one of the photos keeps appearing. I do not have samsung cloud active so when I delete photos often times some of them appear a day later. I have went directly to the path and deleted them for them only to appear hours later. I did a search and located nothing so fear I may be the only one experiencing this.
Maybe you saved it in a cloud so it reappears... Try to synchronize or delete directly in the cloud if you done that.
These are just the cache not the original picture. You need to delete/clear the pictures cache.
The best program I found to do this is "Unseen Gallery" which is available on the store.
Hope this helps.

On my s9 note if you go to the menu option in the gallery settings you should see the option to disable save photos for 15 days before permanently deleted in trash.
