try this in xterm,

tracker-processes -r

then restart phone, it might take a while indexing your media again depending how much you have. but won't list anything in private folder.

the way you can hide pix, is by adding tags to your pix.

Filter the tags you do not want seen so they will not be displayed.

voila theyr hidden

if you put a . it becomes totally hidden, naming the folder private just hides it from the media tracker afaik. works a treat for me.

is there a way to hide files from other programs? like files that cant be moved location as the program would no longer work?

Re: App for hiding pictures??
 

for things like images in apps showing up in your gallery you mean? i use a app called trackercfg from the repositories for that, seems a little hit and miss at times though. but it may well just be me!
it lets you set which folders the tracker should monitor and which it should ignore, and lets you reset the tracker without using xterm too, but like i said sometimes i find it doesn't work quite as expected!

i might be doing something wrong but this is not working .. renamed the folder to private using file manager .. then in xterm restarted the tracker processes .. restarted the phone it showed a message in photo gallery tht it needs sometime to refresh ... bt the precious pictures are still in the gallery
