hi. there were some pics on my galaxy S that i wanted to hide. i got this application called Hide It Pro. I was going through the gallery, and when i sent the first image to the hidden folder, the media scanner started and it has been going on for an hour. it says 100% complete, but the process is still ongoing. when i try to open my camera or image gallery, it says media scanning, and my camera doesn't open and the gallery doesn't open. how can i stop the media scanning?
 
these pics that i wanted to hide were in the cache, and would pop up in the image gallery. i tried to delete each of the pics, but when i would try to delete, my phone would freeze. so i got the Hide It application to hide these photos, and now with the media scanner running, i can't even open the gallery
