Turn on your device and get ready to discover the solutions to the most common Android problem. You will never have to worry about what happened to your pictures or movies!

Solutions to Android Gallery

There are at least a few things which you can do to get rid of these problems. I tried them on different Android phones. In most cases, the problem disappeared after applying 1 or/and 2 second method. However, in one case nothing worked until I tried the last two methods. Good luck!
  • Unmount the SD card and mount it back.
  • Restart the phone (this solves the problem in most cases).
  • Switch the phone off and turn it on again. To do this, hold the Power button for a few second and the menu like the one below will appear.

·  Switch the phone off, remove the battery and the SD card, wait for a few seconds then put it all back.
·  Try a different SD card (sometimes the problem may be with the SD card, not your phone).
·  Remove the SD card and insert it into another device to check if you can access the files on it
·  Check if there are system updates available for your Android phone and if there are any, install them. Go to Settings > About > Software updates and click Check now.

  • Clear Gallery cache by going to Settings > Apps >All > Gallery and Clear cache. This method worked when nearly nothing else helped.

  • Backup all the data and reset the phone (this always helps but you risk losing data). Go to Settings > Backup & reset > Reset phone.

  • Use some alternative app for viewing pictures and photos. There are at least a few great alternatives. I've selected the best ones for you. Scroll the page up and on the right you will see the preview of "Great Alternative Gallery Apps." Just click on the app of your choice.
