[Q] Can't delete pictures form gallery - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am on latest andromadus, and when I go to gallery and select pictures there is not an option to delete pictures. If I am in the camera app part, i can view and select a single picture and delete it, but when it links me to gallery I again do not have the option to delete pictures. Any suggestions?

not sure which gallery andromadus uses but have you tried long press? maybe highlight a pic and hit menu or more? use a file manager? download a different gallery app?

How do I get the HTC Sense gallery back?

I downloaded the Vanilla lockscreen and some other vanilla apps. One of them must have set the gallery to "vanilla." Now I get this floaty groups of pictures that tilt when I tilt the phone.
How do I get the stock gallery back?
Juat uninstall the other app..

Thanks for the post, but there is no other app to install. The vanilla gallery is the only app (besides Astro file explorer) that will open pictures by default.
If I download another picture viewer from the market, it does not display in the list of potential apps when clicking on a picture file. For example, if I'm in Astro and I click on a jpg, a little window pops up asking me what program to open it with (since I cleared all my defaults). The only options are Astro and Gallery, regardless of what other apps I have installed.
I do not like the "floaty" Vanilla gallery. It looks messy to me.
Does my question make sense?

[Q] Problems with gallery

Hello,
Some times, every photo and video material disappearing from my phone. Gallery shows nothing. But all photoes and videos are still on SD card. The main point, that I can't reach them. Some widgets, like gallery widget, can show me the pictures, but when I pres on the photo to zoom it - black screen appears and that is it. How can I solve this problem?
see if there is a nomedia file in your photos folder if there one then delete it and your photos will appear again
if it doesn't work then try another app to see the pictures just to know if the problem from the stock gallery app

Gallery displaying all photos in my email....

Why on Earth is it creating a "All Downloads" folder that has all the photos I have attached to emails? I have to either hide the album or keep deleting the images. I dont want them in there. Is there a fix?
Just delete them...
If I remember right you need to try going into the gallery and then selecting menu/settings. If photo sync is checked, uncheck it.

[Q] Deleted Photos stock gallery app (on SD Card) come back to haunt me

I really like the way the Stock Android Gallery app handles my photo, rather than the Sony Album app. But recently I noticed that my phone has a number of photos that supposed to be deleted re-appeared in my Gallery app. Very strange.
I installed Google KitKat 4.4. Gallery and Camera app , installed google plus, thus the "photo app" came together as well. All photos save to SD card DCIM folder by default. I did make sure that cache cleared, thumbnail rebuild after each test below:
1. Delete a photo from Gallery App, it disappear from all photo viewing apps, including the Sony Album App.
2. Check ES Explorer, the photo supposedly deleted still in there.
Tried again, using the Google Plus photo app
1. Delete a photo from Google Plus Photo App; made sure empty the Bin as well. Check all photo viewing app, the photo has been removed.
2. Checked ES Explorer again, the photo deleted is still there!
Then I tried Sony Album App
1. Delete a photo from Sony Album App. All photo viewing apps have the photo removed
2. ES explorer: this time it removed the photo there as well!!
Is this some kind of feature that the google apps build to protect accidental deleted image? If so, how come the photos are still there after Bin was emptied? How to make sure the photos that I wanted to delete is genuinely deleted? (apart from using other apps)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It gives you the option when setting up the Phone to backup to Google so check your sync settings.
I didn't even turn on the photo auto backup. So there is nothing I can set there except from logging into google account.
As for the Gallery app, I can find any setting regarding deleting photos. There is not even a Bin folder in there.
Bump. Anyone can help?
