Cannot access images folder

2 replies · 2,201 views · Started 10 January 2004

Since yesterday, whenever I try to access the images folder it just gives an error tone and the message: "Images: System Error". I do not have a clue what has caused this as I haven't even done anything to my phone in quite a while.

By the way, I can still access my images by using a File Explorer program - I only seem to get this problem when trying to access the folder containing all the thumbnails.

How can I fix this??

I had this error on the first day I had my 7650 (aww, memories 😃)

The easiest way of fixing is to back up your most important files (do NOT do a PC Suite backup or the restoration will restore the "bug" too).

Do a *#7370# factory reset (plug in the charger first). Fixed it for me.

Cheers

That happened to me some time ago, it came out to be a damaged image file.When the IMAGES app tried to open the thumbnails it crashed.

Delete all the thumbnails in the C:\Nokia\Images and then try again, if that doesn't work either just delete all the images you've got (you can back them up in your PC).

Now it should work...
