Product version 0.7.3.2 When using the "Remote Filesystem Browser" Plugin to transmit a picture (e.g. *.jpg) from PC to Android, the Gallery is not updated. That means: after the transfer finishes one can open the Gallery app and is not able to see the new image nor work with it. Rebooting fixes this, as it forces a reindex of the gallery. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect Device with KDE-Connect 2. Open the device for fileaccess in dolphin (small folder icon after leftclicking the tray icon ) 3. Copy a *.jpg somewhere to device memory (not Camera folder) and wait for transfer to finish 4. Open Gallery on the device 5. Search for image Actual Results: Image does not show up in the Gallery Expected Results: Image shows up in the Gallery ( Device is a Nexus 4 with Cyanogenmod 11-20141030-nightly-mako )
It's not going to be easy to fix, because we don't really know what you are transferring. When sending individual files, we can add them to the index when we receive them, but for this case the only solution I can think of is triggering a full re-scan.
If rescanning is costly maybe a button that allows to manually force a rescan when needed could work. Although I do not see how to intuitively integrate that into the userinterface...
You might want to have a look at SD Scanner : https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=scanner&fdid=com.gmail.jerickson314.sdscanner Though manual and not automatic, I guess it does precisely what you're looking for.
This was fixed in an earlier release.
