Focus was achieved, shutter sounded and "shot" animation
displayed. Nothing got shown in Photo Roll aside of the

registered with Gallery via File Manager, the file displays
with a "music-note" thumb. Assume file corrupted.

Try opening the photo from the PC. I think that should work.

I encountered a similar problem some time ago; I bet I filed a bug about it, but now I cannot find it... Maybe I just dreamed of filing it :-) In my case, I couldn't take a photo of the computer screen showing a busy x-terminal. But I could take photos of everything else. After some time of digesting the surprise, I realized that this was probably due to the image size: pictures having lots of details have a bigger file size, and that break something (maybe the thumbnailer).

If you still have the photo, could you please file a bug about this?

Ciao,
  Alberto
