By chance have you in the past used the Camera 360 app?

I found that by the process of elimination that removing all the pictures I took using Camera 360 from my device that all my pictures appeared in Gallery (plus local music showed up in Apollo).

I started thinking it was a file name length issue so I renamed quite a few photos from the C360_* naming to the IMG_* naming convention and was able to see some of the photos taken from Camera 360 but there were still some that cased the media scanner to fail. After reviewing the properties of the photos that were still causing the issue the only thing different was how Camera 360 stored the GPS info. Next I stripped that information from the photo and finally was able to get all my photos to appear in Gallery.

Still I feel there is some sort of issue with media scan since this wasn't an issue on CM9 and earlier but I'm happy to have made progress on CM10.

Hope this helps, if not perhaps when you get time try the process of elimination method to see if you can find something common breaking media scan.

Hey lnxfrk, thanks for the reply. Yup it works! Boggles me why this is the case, but I just deleted all the snaps taken by Camera360 and its working, just like "Butter" :rolleyes:

Running the latest CM10 nightly based on 4.1.2 and I'm just lovin it B)

any updates on this front? There are people suggesting to keep the phone awake for about an hour and perform a complete media scan and then restart the phone. http://cm10.hostei.com/help.html Although this is for CM10 Devil ROM, I reckoned it might work on CM10 as well. I'll be trying this out. Will update when I try it out.

How do we come to know if this issue has been fixed in the new nightly releases? Is there any way to know that apart from trying the ROM?

When I had this problem disabling the memory card in the system settings and re-enabling it did the trick.

I dont use any memory card. I just use the internal memory (14GB). When you say memory card, are you speaking of an external sd card or the internal storage? If you are speaking about internal storage, could you please post the steps here.

Also I see people reporting the reserved memory for OS and apps is also very less. So people are getting low memory messages once the memory starts to exhaust.
