Android has a media scanner that indexes and caches all the media metadata on external storage. It does this at boot or when the media is unmounted and remounted. If you make a change to a file it has indexed and want apps that use the index to see the new metadata, you will have to tell Android that the file has changed needs to be indexed again it. See MediaScannerConnection.scanFile.
