[Q] Can't acces my gallery - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello i am a new user here..so i hope i'm writing in the right place ok guys so here is my problem..i have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and yesterday i tried to install different ROM's until i decided to stick with the null_26 ROM. The problem is that i can't acces my gallery..when i try to acces it says "Not enough space". Delete unnecesary items, such as downloaded software,pictures videos and documents" . It's quite odd since i don't have nothing on it..i have 10 gb free on my phone..and not one picture or video do you have any ideas how can i fix it ?
Thanks in advance

Try connecting your phone to your pc and browse to:
Phone -> Android -> Data
Then navigate to:
com.sec.android.gallery3d
Inside there will be a directory called cache. Delete it.
Hope this sorts your problem out.

Try installing the latest version of Flash Player on your device.

hey there , i did that and re installed it to but still the same thing
Hi. Sorry that didn't work. Are you running a custom ROM or just the stock one from the carrier?
Edit:
Try clearing the cache and data for Flash Player. Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> Adobe Flash Player -> Clear Cache + Clear Data. Reboot your phone. -> Launch your browser again.
yup im running a stock one with 2.3.4 , just cleaned the cache and data the problem seems still there
Hopefully help
I tried to research your problem a little more, and It's not a sure fire way, but try clearing your browser cache a little bit, and see if there's an option to enable plugins.
Gosh. I'm not sure on this...
Might I ask you to download CatLog from the Market? This is an application that reads the LogCat data and can output it to a file on your SD card.
Launch CatLog -> Press your menu button -> Press Record -> Name the file -> Press OK -> Press your home button. -> Launch the browser -> Do what you do to launch a flash video. -> When it crashes go up to the notification bar and hit "Stop Recording."
Do note that personal information may be contained in the log.
If you want, you can PM me the log (so it's not public), I'll see what might be happening. I can't guarantee anything. If you don't feel comfortable sharing the log, that's okay, but I've run out of ideas. I am really sorry.
If anybody else has any ideas, hopefully they will chime in.
I experience the same on my Galaxy S2 too... I tried the procedures above to no avail. I mean, not the CatLog one.
Same problem here. Did anyone solve this?
In case here is a logcat when opera crashing on youtube.

[Q] broken copy&paste...

hi everybody !
As i saw the intro video of XDA, i'm one of these real NOOBS !
I have an "unbranded" GSIII (GT-II9300) with JB 4.1.1 (base band is I9300XXDLID) and my version number is JRO03C.I9300XXDLJ2...
Everything worked fine but due to lack of space (SINCE WITH JB WE CAN'T CHOOSE MEMORY TARGET !!!, with 2.1 it was ...), i erase some folders on SDcard and EXTSD (but my phone is unrooted) and this EXTµSD0 (16GB) went from my old GSII....so there were some useless folders in my mind)
anyway, for a reason i don't understand, I CAN'T COPY/PASTE anymore, though the clipboard appears when i selected text, it sometimes tell me
"text copied in clipboard" but switching app (i.e SMS to GMAIL or somethin else) clipboard is empty.
So it seems that i destroyed a folder somewhere..... (expecting it's not a memory leak....).
Do you know what is the process in copy/paste operation and what folder i should check...
I don't have any backup cause Kies is a real piece of crap IMHO....
Any help would be appreciated !
XDA POWER !
I had the same issue before. I posted multiple times on these forums but got no love.
The only solution for me was complete wipe and reinstall.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Hi, try the following
delete files under /data/clipboard
in application manager got to all, search for "testservice" and clear cache/data
Then reboot

[SOLVED]Gallery not opening " Not enough space. Delete unnecessary ....

Hey guys,
i need help our here. i am facing a rather odd problem which started yesterday. whenever i tried to open gallery, it says "
Not enough space. Delete unnecessary items such as download softwares, videos and documents."
I have factory reset the device 3 times deleted everything, flashed using ODIN but no avail. Any body has any solution for this?
I am using:
Stock ROM XXMEB5
Stock Kernel
Stock Recovery
EDIT: Finally Solved the Problem. The phone was not resetting properly, so for users facing this problem there are 2 possible solutions:
1. Flash stock rom, goto stock recovery and from there wipe data if CWM does not do it properly (In my case CWM did not do it properly)
2. The other solution, the info i figured out was that it had to do something with a folder in Android/Data directory. Try to delete folders one by one to see if this fixes the error

I recently updated OTA to 4.1.2 and have suddenly got this same problem today, im not technically that great so all i did was save the files i wanted to keep and did a factory reset but nothing has changed. I can open my pictures in Smart Gallery Lock Free but im also having the problem that nothing deteles properly, everything i delete re-appears when i re enter Smart Gallery
I have tried removing the files directly from "My Files" but it will only work on the extSdCard not sdcard0 its says deleted but doesnt go anywhere.
I have looked at your point 2. but i dont know what i can delete without making things worse
Hope somebody can help

[Q] Directory Bind with Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Hi there,
After screwing up my Samsung S3 and until I can somehow get it fixed, I am seriously considering purchasing a Samsung Galaxy Note 3, but really 'only' if I am able to successfully root it and able to run ''Directory-Bind' on it as I do on my S3 now. Could I get a thumbs up here that Directory-Bind is compatible with a Galaxy Note 3 running Android 4.3, or if if it's not compatible, a suitable alternative, as I want to be able to mount an external SD card and run apps/games from that, as I do now with my S3. If Directory-Bind isn't compatible with, can someone please name me a good suitable alternative that is?
As usual, if this question has been answered previously, my apologies.
Thanks in advance.

You need to post in the note 3 forums.
Do you have a s3 i9300? If so why not post whats wrong with it and see if we can get it sorted.

Sorry, my bad, my post was 'supposed' to be in the Note 3 section, I don't know what happened.
Someone already addressed my S3 problem in another thread( http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...3-question-t2690307/post54013380#post54013380 see below) , but I still haven't been able, due to illness, to fix it.

I'm in the UK and rooted my Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) well over a year ago, using, the CF Root method from these very forums.
All had been working just fine until about a week ago, when I (stupidly) installed an apk that was 'supposed' to add KitKat features to my stock 4.1.2 ROM. It was from this article "http://androidcritics.com/get-android-4-4-kit-kat-android-devices/" that I installed two of the provided apk's, namely 'Google Home' and 'Google Velvet' (an apk that claimed to add 'Google Now' features to my ICS ROM). Now, I so regret taking the risk of installing those two apk's, as now, as soon as my SGS3 has booted up and detected the 64GB SD Card (running with Directory Bind), I get a message that states 'Unfortunately Google Search has stopped'. When I try to open Google Search, it says unable to load data, and trying to run Google Play now always says 'No Connection, retry?' All was fine before I installed those 2 apk's. Even when I try to download something via the Play Store in Firefox on my PC and try to send that to my SGS3, that now fails too. In-game purchases won't connect either (No Connection, again) I'm really confused, because some apps connect to the Internet via WiFi, such as Dolphin Browser,Yahoo Mail and facebook; but, ANYTHING to do with Google, including GMail seems not to or just plain won't connect, although Google maps does connect.
After this problem started, I immediately, using Odin 3 v1.85, successfully flashed my SGS3 with CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar, but that has made absolutely no difference and has fixed nothing. My phone is way past its warranty, so getting it fixed by Samsung is out of the question, and my only (hopeful) solution is to ask you guys for a working fix/solution, please?
I've connected my SGS3 to the latest version of Samsung KIES (via USB) on my PC and KIES states there is a software update for my phone available (it doesn't however mention what the software update is or what for), but it says I may lose data on my phone, and I don't want to lose my data and settings; so, somehow, I'm going to need to make some kind of backup, yes? What would be the best application for backing up my internal SD to my PC, as I unfortunately don't even have space on my PC's HDD to make a backup of that at this time.
My SIII states there are 600 installed applications (of which the vast majority still function just fine, except some that need to connect to the net via WiFi (some will and some now won't)), that I really haven't got the time or energy to reinstall all of them again, so can someone please point me in the direction or post(s), explaining the best way to back up my internal memory and settings (I don't have the HDD space to back up the entire data contents of apps on my external SD card at the moment, so I'm guessing backing up the internal 11GB will save all the relevant data I need). I'm sure backing up like this has been covered in a separate post, so any pointers to those posts would be useful, thanks.
But the most important thing for me at the moment are to get my Google Services and Wi-Fi issues fixed.
One last problem.....When I try to open Applications Manager in Settings, it stays open for about 10 seconds then force-closes. I'm guessing that having the high number of installed apps n games installed is causing this, is it? Because of this, I don't seem to be able to delete the davik cache on things like Google Play, etc.
I've managed to reset (global) App preferences in Applications Manager, but that's as far as I can get in there before it force-closes itself.
I've tried logging on to YouTube, using my regular Google account, but nothing happens.....I don't get it. Would I need to remove my regular Google account from my phone and then fill it in again??
I even reinstalled Google Play (Playstore v4.0.27.apk) and Google Search, but both still don't connect to the Net.
If you have any other questions regarding my problems) or need any more details from me, to help with a solution to these problems, then please go ahead and ask me. Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to put is as much detail about my problems as I could.
Many thanks in advance, sincerely, Al."
Briefly, the problem is, I tried installing a couple of APK's on my rooted 4.1.2 Samsung Galaxy S3 that were supposed to install Google Now. They pretty much did that, and it's working, but it has screwed up just about everything else Google-related, including Gmail (just always force-closes), Google Play (won't connect), Now, when I try to log into my Google account on my S3 (with my correct email and password), I always get the message "Couldn't sign in - Can't establish a reliable connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your Android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
This was never a problem before since I removed my Google account from my S3 and tried to add it again, in order to try to fix the problems with Google Plat and Gmail. Now, Google Plus doesn't work too.
Everything else, all apps n games, including Wi-Fi connection to my router work just fine, except connection to the Play store and trying to update or add apps to my S3 via my PC.
I've been told to download an original stock 4.1.2 ROM in zip format and stick it on my external SD card, but I have yet to find exactly where to find a stock 4.1.2 ROM in zip format in order to put it on my external SD card - any pointers would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I hope this covers everything for a minute.
Cheers, Al
