I have this code in my app but it doesn't seem to be working. Only after restarting my phone then all the images are displayed in the gallery. No i am wondering is there a way to do this as soon as the photo is taken and then update the gallery without the need to restart the phone.

this is what i have:

protected void mediaScan() {
  sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_MOUNTED, Uri.parse("file://"
                 + Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/" +getResources().getString(R.string.app_name))));

Could anyone please help?
