How to refresh Gallery after deleting image from SDCard

Question

When deleting the images on Android’s SD Card, sometimes the images are correctly removed but in the gallery still remains a preview of the removed image. When tapping on it, it is loaded as a black image. To resolve it I need to run MediaScanner. But this code doesn't work and still, the preview of review image remains in the Gallery.

Anyone knows how to resolve this.

Uri contentUri = Uri.fromFile(file);
Intent mediaScanIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE,contentUri); 
sendBroadcast(mediaScanIntent);

Answer 1

For each file while deleted use this

KITKAT

this worked for me

try {
            context.getContentResolver().delete(
                    MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
                    MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA + "='"
                            + new File(fileUri).getPath() + "'", null);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();

        }
