So the built in photo viewer does not show me camera photos, and when I select "camera default folder" it says no images.

So when I open up file manager and go to /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM there's images in there. But the photo viewer just says no images in the camera default folder even though images are clearly there when I manually point the viewer to that folder.

What exactly in this camera default folder? I mean my images are saved in /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM by default but apparently it's not the default folder? How do I set the default folder?

Same here, I've tried renaming DCIM to camera but when I take a photo, The phone sets up a new DCIM. I'm sure this wasn't always the case though. Maybe one of the firmware updates screwed it up.

The image viewer does not search for files but it asks
tracker instead. You can test which files tracker knows to be in this folder:
In xterm enter:
tracker-meta-folder -p /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM File:Name

this should list the files known by tracker for this folder.

Like Nikolai said the image viewer uses tracker to find the photos, that it isn't seeing them suggests there is a problem with tracker, or likely its database. Run "tracker-processes -r" in the terminal, this will kill the running tracker processes and delete its databases, give it about 5 minutes (may be less) for the tracker process to restart itself and rebuild its database.

I have the same problem, but "tracker-processes -r" didn't work for me. my problem started when I reflashed my device with maemo-flasher. anybody knows what should I do to resolve this problem??

Did you flash both eMMC and rootfs? If you didn't flash both.
