Sounds weird.

Try to 'Wipe Cache' in the custom recovery (if you have one installed)

I only stock recovery and I've done wip cache but did not help, any other ideas apart format?

another strange thing that I noticed, not even "my files" application see the folders that are in micro sd but quick pic sees no problem.

OK, check to see if there is '.nomedia' file in these folders?

Have you tried to remove and insert again your sd card? sometimes it solves this kind of problems.

Are you sure?

To make sure, install ES File Explorer, open Menu --> Tools --> select 'Show hidden files', press Back to exit the Menu and go to these folder again to check if there is '.nomedia' file.

Check .nomedia file using root browser app(not the stock one) & delete it..
Hope it helps!!

no guys, I just created a folder and copied two pictures in this folder, but the folder is not seen, so I'm sure I do not have any file .nomedia.

This service checks for media files after reboot..

I had this some times as well. I would then go into All Apps and force stop the gallery, and then clear data & cache. Then I would do the same thing for the Media Storage. After this, I reboot the phone and the Media Scanner rebuilds the Media library and keeps it updated.

Hope this helps.
