Gray space in file commander

After I reduced the size of .thumbdata files (by stopping and clearing the data of media manager service) in DCIM folder I got the gray space as shown in the screen shot attached which is equal to the original size of the index's  files

So my space's problem still exist and I end up with nothing

I can't see the picture, could you upload it to box, dropbox, google drive, etc, and post the link here.

That's rather odd, you could repair the phone with PCC 

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

Repair the phone once more but remove the SD and SIM cards, do NOT install any app nor add your google account > report back.
