Problem with camera an SD storage - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Hi everybody;
I've reading some threats about camera issues but seems no one has post something like this...
My camera do not crash when taking picts at high resolution but the problem is that pictures are not saved...
I mean, when I choose to save pictures to SD Card (SD Card/My Documents/ My pictures) they are not saved... the picture counter on the cam (the one that shows the pics you can save) decrese by one after taking the pict, the preview pict shows fine on screen, the name of the pict change (pict1, pict 2, etc) but when I go to the folder the picts should be, it shows nothing on it!
If I change to save on main memory then the picture is saved and I can see it, if I rename the My Documents folder on the SD in order to force camera to create a new My Documents folder the picture is saved, if rename the My picts folder the pic is also saved...but if I return to the old folder the picture does not save againg...
Does anyone could have an answer about this extrage issue??
I'm afraid I've lost the pictures I've taken...
thanks in advance
PS.- Im ussing XDA v1 but everything was working fine, this apeared after instaling cool cam, I've removed the program but the problem still exist...

That is exactly what happened to me
That is exactly what happened to me..cool cam and all
There might be a better way of doing this, but i just hard reset my phone and never installed cool cam again, its not worth it to try to isolate some wierd problem when you could just back up your stuff with a good backup program and then hard reset and restore and be back up in under 10 min.
also look at this thread, maybe if you install the latest camera app it will be fixed:

exact problem here, exact solution to solve this issue - backup, HR and restore. I hate that moment, when camera do not save pictures in High resolution. but I still doesnt know, what is the root cause of this problem. when I switch not to maximum quality, image is saved each time perfectly...

[Q] Where do pics save to?

Hello this is my first post so hello... anyway ive searched everywhere for this but cant find the answer... for some reason my phone decided to work like it had molasses inside of it today. Slow is not the word to describe it. nonfunctioning is better. LauncherPro fc like 15 times, Sense also. Nothing different happened exept maybe i got a bunch of automatic updates this morning. but thats it. anyway i wanna hard reset the device(which i really hate to do) and start again... are my pics/videos,taken with this phone, saved to the phone, or sd. what else should i be concerned about loosing.
Amazing there is no way to fully back up your phone... my palms were amazing.... hard reset a million times and push one button and its all back... Sprite was awesome
Pics and videos are saved on the sdcard in the DCIM folder.

Latest Cyanogen (7.0.2.), gingerbread camera and other camera apps

Well, I flashed latest Cyanogen mod, but then I found some problems with the phone. I'm not sure if it's really Cyanogen or something else, that's why I'm asking here.
Now, I always liked the default camera that comes with the phone, but this time, I can't find the timer on it. I have checked every single option and - nothing.
I figured that I might try some other camera apps, so far: Camera360, Camera Advance, Camera ZOOM FX and Vignette, they all work fine, but when it comes to saving pictures, nothing happens. I'm using some 3D gallery app, which comes with Cyanogen, I'm not sure what it's called, but it's fairly popular.
Any solution to this?

Appreciate your reasoning but please don't cross post (same question in multiple forums / threads).

You mean the picture is taken ok but are not being saved? Have you used a file manager or pc to check the DCIM folder on the SD Card? This is a very unique issue and not specific to the camera apps or the ROM. Let me know re above.

The Gallery 3D app is native to Android. It won't be responsible for the issues.
Sorry for late reply. Yes, the images are shown in gallery, it just reports location as unknown and when I check SD card (I have checked every folder) there are no pictures (even the newly created folders after I change save path) are not shown.
However, after you mentioned that I should check with file manager, I did so and I can see the pictures. But still, nothing on SD card, so I can't access them. I even tried sharing them on Facebook and sending g to my email then downloading, they show up in the gallery but not on SD card when I access it via PC.
What is causing this? PC issue?

Anyone having issues with Gallery ?

Is anyone else having issues with the gallery and looking thru pics? Mine is REALLY slow and unresponsive. Often FC's bc of unresponsiveness. If I clear cache it works fine the next launch, but after that its the same thing. Other than that everything is super smooth and fast.
Anyone else with this issue??
Thanks
No issue with my gallery. Everything is working fine.

I had this issue after I rooted the phone and deleted some bloatwares. Gallery was working fine until I deleted something. Don't remember what bloatwares I deleted though. So I installed custom rom and gallery working perfect again. Must be some kind of bloatwares I deleted that messed up the gallery.
I had the same issue even from stock everything when i first put in my sdcard. There was a few corrupted pictures which was making the gallery not load anything right.
Gallery issue
I discovered the issue: in Gallery menu, choose View by, and choose Content in device. The gallery works normally after that.
The problem is that when you close the gallery and reopens you have to do the same. The Gallery doesn't keep the setting...
Does anybody know how to do keep the setting permanently?
Sorry for bad english.

Yea. I am aware of that. I couldn't find a resolution, so downloaded "Quickpic" from play store. It's an alternate gallery and is free. Works like a charm.
I can't believe Samsung/Tmobile doesn't check these things.

The only issues I have is that it won't sync my Google+ photo albums, even though it's setup to do so.
I had issues like this before on the GS2 and a few times when I first got my GN2. The GN2 was right out of the box and it loaded up gallery really slow and lagging, until the point where the gallery give my a GALLERY NOT RESPONDING message. I found out that the photos that lag, take forever to load or doesnt load at all are the ones on my external SD card. I tried to add more photos to the External SD to see what happen and most of the time not all the photos copy over and errors with the card. I did a SD card format using the phone and put all the photos back on, it works just fine now. No more lag, no more errors and photos are loading fast. If youre also using external SD to store your photos like me, then maybe this is the same problem you're having, but if you're on an internal memory storage then I dont know. =) Just a memory card issue and require quick format for me.

Upgrade from Nexus 5 to 5X and transfer files

Hello, I recently got a Nexus 5X and am wondering what is the best way to copy all my pictures from my Nexus 5. I've tried dragging them off and pasting them onto the new phone, which does work, but the order gets all screwed up and the time created of each file is not preserved. Is there a way to copy pictures (and perhaps other files) while keeping the original timestamps?

unless you use a very wierd camera or gallery app they should stay in order, since the original timestamp is usually included in the files name. for example 'IMG_20160616_103711.jpg' was taken on 16.6.2016 at 10:37:11. so as long as they are sorted by name the files in this case (stock camera) stay in order.
does the stock photos app sort by name? i haven't been able to make that happen, or find that option.. seems just like it's random? maybe i can just delete everything and reimport while in airplane mode or something so there are no interruptions?

google photos gets instantly deactivated on all of my devices, so i am not sure on that front. it should at the very least be able to sort photos by name or the dateincludet in the images metadata (not the 'last changed' stat) though.
oh ok.. what photo app do you use then? I personally dont like the Google Photos app either, I prefer the old gallery app. Also, thanks for chiming in here!

after quickpic became infested and testing out alternatives like focus, i settled for Piktures which does all the things i want from it, although i had to spend some time in the settings. so far i haven't heard anything negativ either.

Question Assistance with the Oneplus 9 Pro Photos App

Last week I updated my OP9 Pro to the latest version c61. Everything works fine, but the Photos App is basically useless.
What I mean by this is when I go into the Photos App everything is "blank". When I go into file explorer and go into the DCIM of pictures folders I have I can view the thumbnail and even open up any image and view it, but if I try directly from the Photo's app it's just showing like a blank transparent black box.
I have a 2 part question.
1. Has anyone experienced this before, and if so, how did you fix it? I really don't want to wipe my entire phone because everything else works fine.
By the way I tried clearing cache storage for the app under app info and tried disabling, rebooting my phone and reenabling and no luck.
2. What is a good Photo's/Gallery replacement app to the stock one?
A few features that I would like if possible:
No ads
minimal/simple functionality (I don't really care about extensive photo editing. Really just cropping and flipping photos if necessary)
If you can hide certain gals that a plus, but not necessary
A lot of the replacement gallery/photo apps I have seen have a lot of ads and I don't want to deal with that.
Thanks in advance!
Hi, whilst I've never experienced the issue you have in question 1, have you tried to add an album? When you take a photo on your phone camera does that appear? ( Both in the camera and your gallery) as for an alternative I personally use Google photos as it just works.
Thanks for your response and sorry for the delayed response. It's a really odd glitch.
If I take a picture and open it at that moment it will display fine. Also if I go into a file manager and open it I can view it fine. But if I go into my photos app it's blank. I ended up downloading a couple other photo apps and they open up all my media fine without any issues. It's a really bazaar glitch but seems to only be with the oneplus photo app with the newest c61 update.
I'm not sure if I can remove the stock photo app from my phone because I believe it's a system app and the only option I have is to disable it, but I was thinking of trying to remove it from my phone and reinstalling it from scratch.

did you already clear cache and storage of the app?
maybe you denied a required access right by accident?

Yes I did that and also checked to make sure all proper permissions were granted.

strange.
I mostly use the google photos app. not sure if this is an option for you, but it should check all the marks from the initial post.
Thanks, I should look at it. I'm not sure if google photos backsup your stuff by default, or you can just turn off that feature. I feel like with that feature enabled I would quickly run out of the limited space google gives you as it is so you would be forced to upgrade to get more space.

I think it is turned off by default or at least asks you.
but you can definetly turn the backup off manually.
it gives you 15gb incl. shared between google drive, gmail and photos I think.
for me this is still enough, but I also backup at my home cloud.
