The problem that causes gallery and music app to not show files - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Ok, like me, a lot of you guys are probably wondering, "why in God's green earth, my gallery and music is not showing files?"
Well it is confirmed that the latest Rom manager update creates this nomedia file which prevents stock apps from viewing.
UPDATE: Clockworkmod had said that they will be releasing new update which fixed this problem! It will be soon, so just be patient
UPDATE: OK, I finally fixed the problem! It was so simple! The link to the howto is provided via Rotary Heart
This thread have a solution for it
Just follow the steps I did it and now its working fine

I haven't deleted nomedia files and uninstalled Rom manager since I just found out that now, but if there's anybody who solved the problem by doing this, feel free to post how-to

Instructions (via erishasnobatter):
delete the file (.nomedia) from sdroot
clear media storage data
remove ROM manager
reboot

Flashing doesn't help. You should be fine with the instructions. Flashing is adding extra steps. :good:

You have to manually install it because supposedly it is not "compatible" with our phones even though 2.2.16 version work fine. Anyone have a download link?
I saw that, but it didn't show up in my apps yet.
google search for the file name then throw "download" in the search box after the name... you'll find it.

Uploading while editing video info
I searched the forum to try and find an answer, with no luck. My main question is why can't we find the youtube app in the market, or update it without manually downloading an APK. I am running stock rom, no root, and I am on version 2.1.6. Clearly there has been several updates to the app since the version I have. I am just wondering why the newer versions are "incompatible" with our phone? I mean isn't this suppose to be the latest and greatest phone that Sprint has to offer?
Not working. Any ideas?
I installed this APK and it looks great, but it doesn't work....loads a video forever!! WEIRD. I rebooted and nothing. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

It does look the same except that they added a couple more categories like magazines and tv episodes.
well, the difference with the new play store now is that you don't have to download a whole app to update, it only downloads the parts of the app that were updated, resulting in a lower file size needing to be downloaded. also, we're on 3.7.13 now. i think it was pushed out a few hours ago.
Thanks works fine on my S3!
bump for an update!

WTF is the market named on the SGS3 by default? It's usually vending.apk but I can't seem to find it in the system apps lol.

As far as I can see from playing 5 minutes with it, only the driving mode is different.
Makes sense since they mentionned on the launch of the S4 that the app was now called S Voice Drive (or something like that).
I'll rehost it for you on my own server - so we don't have to keep dancing with file sharing hosts..

I pulled these from the system dump. I have a feeling that the AccuWeather app doesn't work on out phones. There was only the weather.apk and the weather deamon.apk.
Since it was a odexed ROM did that mean they had to have their odex file included and only worked on a odexed ROM ?
