I've taken about 7 pictures with my droid. When I look in "my gallery" I find 4 folders, "camera pictures", "camera media", "all pictures", and "sd card" All 7 pictures are in the first 3 folders.
The "sd card" only has one picture in it and it is a picture I saved from an email.
I'm assuming that the "camera pictures, media, and all pictures" are in the phone memory...? Is this correct? If so, how do I move them onto the "sd card" to free up phone memory? I'm hoping I don't have to move them to a pc, then back? The user guide is NOT clear on this. Thanks:)

All photos are in sdcard/dcim/camera folder unless you have changed it.

None are stored in phone memory.

Thats because those are not folders but gallery views.

How do I get to my SD card? If I delete them in gallery will they be deleted on the card?

Use ASTRO file explorer from the marketplace. This program allows you to view folders as you would on a PC. Just go through the folders and look for the duplicates and delete/sort as you like.

Ok I had several hundred photos in my phone and I have no idea if they are on my sd card or not. I down loaded all of them into my PC and they did not erase as I instructed them to. I have been deleting them in blocks of 50 or so. I have deleted all emails, texts and voice mails and I am still told after clearing all caches for all apps one at a time that I have no storage. I deleted most all of my aps I down loaded even those on sd card and cannot manage texts or voice mail. so what is going on? When I forst got this phone I could have n900+ photosn ad still get email.... I also get what the other person was saying in another post "butt dialing" I am constantly accused of that when I am in fact charging my phone with the cord that was given to me at verizen when I bought the phone. so advice?:mad:
