I synched all my photos with Lightroom, now would like to delete them from my Phone. There is no delete function in the Sony Album (Android Album?) however. How can I get rid of all photos taken?

2Have you tried a file manager, and deleting the images on the file system level? – Izzy♦ Aug 19 '13 at 23:29

I finally deleted them from Windows Explorer. However I wonder that there is not a simple function for this. I use the Phone as a camera and after thhe files are imported in LIghtroom I want to get rid of them on the phone. Looks like a special app s required to delete photos. – thomas Aug 21 '13 at 14:00

You might want to put your solution into an answer and accept it (the latter at least until a possible better solution might be offered ;) – Izzy♦ Aug 21 '13 at 14:18
Deleting based on File Extension:
You may install Terminal Emulator from Play Store. Open it and enter the commands.
find $EXTERNAL_STORAGE $SECONDARY_STORAGE -iname "*.jpg" -exec rm {} \;
You may replace *jpg
with *png
, *jpeg
, or other extensions involving picture formats.
Connect your device to a computer and find the folder that stores the photo. Then select all with CRTL + A, right-click and select Delete option from pop up menu

It's very simple step and there is no need to install any app.
- Go to album
- Press and select one picture/video
- Once you select a picture you will see top right corner option
- Open it and you will see select all
Select all images including videos and delete it.
