Picture files not showing up

[AS329]

I started the wonderful world of flashing about a month ago and have only flashed the various versions of Myn's 2.2 ROM (now on RLS3). Since I started however I have noticed that when I take a picture, I cannot get to the actual file in any file explorer (ES or Astro). The picture is in my gallery. I can send or text it. But if I look for the file, it ain't there.

I can't get to the file via the computer's explorer either. It's as if the file doesn't exist, but it certainly does because I can see and send it. I have done a *.jpg search, nothing. I have wiped caches, reflashed, and this morning did a complete wipe and flash...no luck.

Anyone have any ideas. It isn't the end of the world, but I like to pull pics off my phone via the computer and just can't find these files to do it.

Thanks.

Sounds like they were deleted by phone. I trad a few days ago about someone else running that rom having same problem. Make sure to view that file type is checked for viewing. Maybe try a app for viewing pics in market it should pick up and picture jpgs.

Nope...but when I click for the properties of a picture from the gallery, it says it should be...

The pics are somewhere and I think they are being stored in the DCIM folder, just the files don't show up...I'll try to get another picture viewer, but do want to figure this out...perhaps I'll save everything on my SD card and format that when I have a free hour or so.

Ok, I found the photograph files, but what is weird is that the files are not being named in sequential order. For some reason, they started at a random number (IMAG0398 for instance)...some are sequentially numbered, some are not. I also imagine that each new photograph getting an old file name is erasing the old photograph that had that number.

So I guess now my question is how do I make that stop and get the camera to name the files differently?

i am having almost the exact same problem. i cant find my pics on my sd card that i have download to the sd card from mms messages.
So what i do is receive a mms pic, tap and hold it, then tap copy to sd card.

I can see these pics in my gallery, in an album called download. But, i cannot find them in my phone using super manager or any type of file explorer, nor can i find them on my sd card when i mount it using usb....

Anyone have any suggestions?

Isn't there a setting to save the pic to either the phone or SDcard? Could that have gotten reset?


Or maybe I dreamt it.
