Gallery is broke on 5800

Just of recent, my gallary has decided to break. When i go into my images and video's, it doesnt show them, it only shows the download icons. But i know i had pictures and video's in there in the first place, cos they have decided to just go missing. I can access them through my file manager, but thats it. To try and solve this problem, i  have updated my software, change my fone to factory settings and tooken my memory stick in and out.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Menu > Applications > File Manager > Open the memory card by tapping it twice (you will see a list of folders) > Options > Memory card options > Format.
All data will be wiped from the card so do not format unless you are certain that you have back ups of it's content.
If you have a card reader on a PC you can also format it using the computer.

  • MobileMe Gallery Widget Broke, MobileMe Support says to call Applecare

    This one has me, and mobileme, stumped. The resulting pick list in the Mobileme Gallery widget has now become unsynced with the actual mobileme galleries online. So while I can update existing widgets on this page, I can't add a new one. A work around was found (see the last Red Phase gallery, which was put on the page in a conventional way - but lacks the features of the widget of course. Mobileme Chat referred me to Applecare Phone Support, which of course does not work in the middle of the Himalayas. Anyone know the underpinnings of that widget? Thx!

    This is a problem that been going on for a while (since Snow Leopard I believe). I've not found a solution other than what you've done, link a photo to the MMe gallery page. You can link the photo to the individual photo page of the gallery rather than the thumbnail page. That would give you the same appearance as the widgets give you, i.e. use this link: http://gallery.me.com/studiosphoenix#100173/Altf4_Red01&bgcolor=black
    By the way, the album covers gallery's link is broken. The only area of the image that works as a link are the two words Album Cover. Clicking anywhere else gives no results.

  • Nokia 5800 XM - Gallery hangs when trying to open ...

    Hello All,
    I searched all over the internet to see if any other  5800 owner has similar issue but i guess not.  When I try to open any image (which is on phone memory) with  memory card inserted the gallery hangs, Even trying to open an image or movie clip stored in memory card behaves same. I can open the same files using file manager under application.
    I noticed this issue the next day after i purchased my handset and went to nokia customer care and they replaced the MM card( well it took almost month for them) now this is the replaced card. It worked for some hours i was able to view images using gallery and now all of a sudden it has stopped responding. Has this got to do with any application which is installed on memory card? 
    I am going to try to format my MM card and try putting single pic on phone and then on memory card and try. Any one please has any other suggestion?
    I have many song videos on my MMC. i have uninstalled all the applications whihc were there on my memory card like marle maze and some others which i had installed.
    Once i connect to OVI PC Suite i am unable to select remove storage device as it always shows in use so i always used to switch mode to mass storage from PC suite and then remove storage device and disconnect it. Is this correct method?
    My laptop os is vista
    thanks
    Kiran

    well, i got the solution.
    1). remove the memory card from ur cell.
    2). On the cell without memory card.(you will see no trouble wid Gallery now.)
    3). Now OFF ur cell and put the memory card in the cell.
    4). Now Format the memory card by phone memory card menu.
    5). Restart your Cell, copy the contents to memory card, whatever the size of contents are.....
    6). And finally, go to Gallery and enjoy the features of Boombastic 5800..
    Cheers....

  • 5800 XM Photo Gallery Crash ? Firmware suggession ...

    Hello , in my 5800 XM. The photo Gallery crashes every time in loading thumbnails when browsing. I got more than 100 pics and it keeps crashing when scrolling.
    Plz tell me if its the latest firmware ( v52.0.07 ) or its my 2 GB external memory or phone's memory?
    If it is the firmware problem, Plz fix it and release a stable firmware soon with improvements aspected like home screen widgets and bugs fixed like white box in menus.
    If it is the memory than optimize it too, i've also tried a custom firmware and photo gallery was much smooth.
    Click on Green Star ! if i solved your solution.

    Don't think it's firmware otherwise there would be a whole heap of users with the same problem. I'd suggest tranfering all of the pics to your PC, checkdisk your MMC and then transfer it all back to your MMC to see if that has fixed it.
    If not, you'd probably have to go the hard reset option. Sorry.

  • 5800 Gallery Problem

    Hi,
    Just got the 5800, loaded up some old pics and gifs, now when I go to open the gallery it loads all the pictures, then closes straight away, is there anyway round this ?

    Guys......
    Follow the below procedure for this problem....Hope this will work :-
    1. connect the phone with PC using Mass Storage Mode
    2. go to Private > 101f8857 > Cache > E Drive
    3. delete all the files
    4. disconnect safely (imp...coz many ppl just remove the usb coed)
    5. problem solved...
    those clones will no longer be seen...all the images have been refreshed.
    this happens due to the phone hanging when it runs out of RAM.
    it used to happen a lot with my phone too... 

  • Nokia 5800 gallery

    Is there any way of telling my Nokia 5800 to exclude certain areas or folders of the either the phone memory and/or memory card?
    Basically I use a program called MapNav.  It builds up a cache of map tiles which are PNG files.  Now when I use the Gallery, it shows me every single picture/video on the phone - which is less than convenient when I might have a few thousand map tiles!
    5800 v20.0.012 -- 6500s v9.40 -- 6233 v5.43 -- 5140 v3.13
    Solved!

    Unfortunately, with symbian phones, it will display every image and video in your phone and can't exclude them from the main folder.
    BUT, this phone has a new feature where you can create a folder in the gallery and stuff images and videos in a folder. It didn't affect the actual location of my images and vids in the phone and memory card when I checked.
    It's an alternate way of excluding the images by moving them away from the main folder.
    Go to Gallery > Images & Videos > Options > Folder options > New Folder > name it whatever u want.
    Then mark all the photos/videos you want to move away from the main folder (you MUST mark, even if it's just one) and then Options > Folder options > Move to folder > Select the folder.
    The only pain is marking selected images or videos. But worth it! It keeps my main folder clean.

  • 5800 image gallery problem

    hi guys
    I recently bought 5800 and i have a question: why does image gallery show all pictures that's on memory card? even if they aren't in  picture folder, for example it shows all power mp3 skins, and they r stored in power mp3 directory.
    So if i decide to have some private pictures on memory card i cant it will be all shown in Images & Videos, its like phone scans my card and all that is picture file he put in gallery.
    thanks in advance !

  • 5800 Xpress music gallery hangs...

    Hello friends..just purchased okia 5800 Express Music...Dont know which s/w ver m using...but the prob i am facing is the images and videos part of gallery simply hangs when i enter..if i delete the videos and and keep images only then there is no prob...Also second prob...i want to disable the certificacte check for application install...even if i disable it,it checks for certificate...and gives me expired certificate error...what shud i do..i dont know my phone ver..is it necessary to post...Do reply..thanks...

    Guys, this is NOT an issue. You just need to be patient. It's normal when you get a new phone and add a lot of video clips, etc into the phone. Your phone is not a PC with super processing capacity.
    Your phone did not hang. It's just taking time to process new information. I have 5800 XM and I uploaded about 2 GB worth of video clips at one go. The first time I accessed Images & Videos, I thought it hanged but actually I found out later it was just going through each video clip & images.
    For the first few times when u access the gallery and if you have a lot of videos especially, just set the phone aside for about 5 minutes. You will know when everything's ready when you see thumbnails instead of the grey icons. If you see the generic grey "video reel" icon, wait some more until all the grey icons are replaced with thumbnails of the video or image.
    After a few times processing, accessing the gallery is back to normal and not slow anymore. Unless u add new clips.
    If you become impatient and don't give the phone time to process, e.g. keep pressing menu key, etc... then yes, it will shut down. Also happens for maps when you're searching for a common street name (e.g. unimaginative street names which have the same first name, like "BU 1 11" to "BU 5 11") .
    As for the application issue, since the developer didn't bother to include an updated certificate... what's the application called?
    You double-checked the installation settings (Settings > App. Mgr > Installation sett. > Online cert check: off)?

  • Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Gallery, Accelerometer etc ...

    Hey everyone, got a Nokia 5800 XpressMusic as my birthday gift. Love its camera, style, features etc. But there has been some Issues I am facing/discovered recently. Please help me!
    Gallery:
    I've got some ringtones I transferred from my old phone. But the problem is they are listed in the "Songs" folder, in the Music Library. This is a bit frustrating because I don't want ringtones to play when I want to play all of the songs. eh? They won't move to the "Sound Clips" folder. I've tried many things...but I couldn't fix it. Pls help
    Another thing is that when I load up my device with new Images and videos, they don't get added to the "Images and Videos" folder, unless I move them to the folder which the phone created itself and saves the pics and vdos captured by the camera. Then they get added to the gallery..I think. Is this a issue or it supposed to be like this? Pls tell!
    Accelerometer:
    Sometimes when I had to restart the device, after it freezes or hangs up etc. The accelerometer sometimes doesn't work. When I put the phone horizontally (to rotate the screen or images) It doesn't work. And I had to restart the device again to make it work..(the device takes a while to boot up though..)
    Other "funny" stuffs: 
    I've heard that you can put up to four contacts in the contacts bar (favorite four). But in my one, I can put up more than four! How's that?
    When I press the media key and activate the media bar, then tap the "Images and videos" icon, shouldn't it directly navigate me to the Images and Video folder? But it takes me to the gallery homepage, (where u select where u want to go, Images and videos, songs, sound clips, other media etc) why is that?
    Current software version: V 52.0.007 . Updated it using Nokia Ovi Suite. Previous version was V 52.0.004 .
    Full model name: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Navigation Edition. Bought on Dec 13, 2010 
    Please provide me with solutions to this problems. I would appreciate it very much!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    gallery: it's supposed to be like tht. Irritating but the problem is all .mp3, .mp4 sound files are read as music files.. Sound files r .amr and .wav files i guess.
    Accelerometer: chk if ur memory card is corrupt or not. After update, did u try hard resettin? F u dnt hv much data to lose, u cud do a hard/soft reset, using *#7370# code. Nd if u make a backup before reset, which u should, avoid restorin the settings and files after the reset.
    If u'v lot of data to lose, try switchin off the mobile, remove battery, sim, memory card for 10/15mins., reinsert and switch on. If this doesn't solve, resettin is ur final option.
    As for contact bar, i donno if tht's how it is in Navigation edition. If it isn't, resettin will surely solve this. But do not restore settings frm backup after reset.
    The one touch image icon is supposed to do tht. No issues.
    Memory card corrupt: ths s not necessary, but u could check ur memory card. For this u'l have to attach ur fone to pc in 'mass storage' mode. Open my computer on pc. Rt click on ur memory card nd goto properties. Under tools tab u'd find 'check disk for errors'. Run tht. If there'r any corrupt files, it'l be solved. In my experience corrupt card usually leads to some or the other issues in the phone..
    Repost if u've any query.
    F problem solves, Kudo!

  • Kitkat broke my photo gallery

    Post-kitkat install on my Razr M, deleted images are "masking" more recent ones.  Images I know I deleted are showing up in the gallery.  When I click on them, they "disolve" while opening to reveal the new image beneath.  It would be a neat parlor trick, but it makes finding images rather difficult as I have to guess which old image the one I want his hiding behind.
    The problem persists even when the phone is in SafeMode.
    There is no SD card.
    I have never saved images to the cloud service but only stored images on the phone itself.
    Any new suggstions or do I just need to take the phone to a Verizon store and hope someone there has a clue?
    Discussion locked as it is a duplicate of:
    KitKat messed up my photo gallery
    Message was edited by: Admin Moderator

        TheGrislees,
    Sorry that problem is occurring in Safe Mode. That is an indication that no 3rd party app is causing the trouble. Looks like we need to backup and hard reset. Make sure you sync with the Verizon Cloud. Go to the website and see if the images are ok. If not that is likely a problem with the image itself. If the images are fine at the website then let's hard reset the device and sync the photos back to the phone with the cloud. Here are the instructions for resetting the device: From a home screen, tap Apps. From the APPS tab, tap Settings. From the PERSONAL section, tap Backup & reset. From the PERSONAL DATA section, tap Factory data reset. Tap Reset phone. Tap Erase everything.

  • 5800 music express - Gallery Issue

    Hi,
    I have updated my nokia 5800 software version but after that i started facing a problem.
    Whenever i click a new picture from my camera it gets deleted after sometime there are no virus i have already done a virus check of of my phone.
    Please assist me with the same asap as i am facing a lot of problem with that.
    Thanks

    sounds like a corrupt memory card to me. Go to camera settings and chng memory to phone memory. Remove ur memory card and now take some photos and see if they vanish too.
    If they don't, then problem is with memory card. U could chk ur dsk wd chkdsk function on pc. U cud repost for further assistance.
    If even this time ur fotos vanish, maybe there's somethin wrng with ur camera. U can take out batter, sim, card frm ur mobile for 10/15mins and reinsert all and check if ur camera is working. If ths doesn't help a soft/hard reset will solve the problem. Make a backup before resettin, code: *#7370#. After reset avoid restoring settings.
    If any query, repost.
    Kudo, if solved..

    Hi,
    There is some problem witht the my phone. Whenever i go to Menu>Gallery>IMages & Videos i dont see a single image or a video which i have stored. However, when i go to Menu>Application>File Manager> Memory Card>Images i am able to view all the images and videos. The phone randomly refuses to recoganize the Memory Card. It will change my Home Screen Wallpapaer. Default Ringtones, the application will still work. Why could this be happening?

  • Music won't save to file gallery with 5800 express...

    I downloaded songs from the web before, but recently, they won't save to the file gallery. It just says music downloaded, but doesn't save. I can add music via ovi or dragging and dropping on my laptop, but not by downloading from sites on the web. I show 5.7GB free space, so memory card isn't full either.

    Did you refresh the Library to confirm this ?
