Just been trying to take some contact photos with the new V4 rom, they dont get saved atall. Not to a contact or onto the disk. Once its taken it just vanishes?
Also when browsing images using the viewer clicking "Camera" doesnt do anything.
Anybody got some nifty registery hack to fix it. Ide like to fill up my contact photos for the cube but ones taken with the normal camera are huge files and look odd when shrunk down so much!
Thanks
Ryan
Same problem here
Also saw it with mine too.After tryng tht and starting camera with the hardware key showed,camera initialisation error.May be some gurus will help us out.
Yes, it appears the camera is broken, I can not open any pictures I have taken, not just contact photos.
In have just reset my device to see if I can find a work-around and it is now stuck on the welcome screen.....
Camera problems
Problems I have with the camera are:
- Contact pictures are not saved (so you can't use them)
- GPS foto's still not working
- foto's and video's are stored in the seem folder
- when you make a movie the movie is not showing under album (but it is in the folder)
- when you try to play a recorded video you receive an error saying "the source filter for this file could not be loaded"
Does anyone know if there is a cab file for the camera or who to contact to get these problems fixed???
Trying Fix now..Wait me..!

Hi clever people of XDA!
Is there a way to alter the Exif of a photosphere and get it back on your phone so it's seen as a photosphere not just a panorama?
I have tried the following:
alter GPS to be more accurate in 2 exif editors, put pano file back on phone, no longer viewable in photosphere viewer (or uploadable to Maps) but will upload to Google+ and can be scrolled around like a sphere
open in Photoshop to check Exif, done nothing with it but re-saved it, no longer viewable in photosphere viewer (or uploadable to Maps) but will upload to Google+ and can be scrolled around like a sphere
taken off phone, put back on phone (done nothing at all) but it was in "Download" rather than "camera" album, worked fine and could be viewed in photosphere viewer
is there any way I can alter the GPS to be more accurate on my existing and future spheres to make my Google Streetview contributions more accurate?
any help appreciated
anyone?
I really wanna know the same...
A other Idea from me is: Make 360° Pictures with a DSLR, then upload it to "Photo sphere". I`m not so happy with the cellphone (stitching) quality.
Would be cool to build like a Java uploader who simulates a Android 4.2 phone...
I've got the Galaxy Note N7100, and when I open up the gallery on it's own, it's fine, and loads up the phone photos along with those on facebook, dropbox, g+ etc almost instantaneously.
But when I try to select a pic in an app (like PicsArt, Camera Zoom FX, AfterFocus Pro etc), the stock gallery opens, and then it takes AGES for any folder to load (even the local ones, except for camera; but even the camera folder takes ages to be accessible).
It takes like 30 seconds sometimes!
What's wrong with it? Is it just me?
And could I disable it, so it doesn't automatically start trying to pull folders from G+, Facebook etc whenever I open gallery, be it in an app or independently?
My Nexus 4 used to be almost instantaneous in this regard...
I have just tested what you mentioned and see no lag. Something seems to be wrong somewhere. Regarding which albums get "read" I did not find a solution. You could use QuickPic. You can then just long press an album and choose "bypass" or "ignore" or something along thoes terms ("Exclude").
Do you have lots of pictures or film in your gallery?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks, and quickpic worked like a charm!
But yeah, the gallery's still lagging. I don't have a lot of albums on the phone, but the gallery grabs all the pics from my google+(/picasa?) and splits them into albums by date.... And a lot of them!
I don't think this happened on the nexus... And not sure why it is so or how to turn it off...
But meanwhile, quickpic is working awesome, thanks!
The option to display pictures on a world map works only for pictures stored in folder "DCIM\Camera". If you have other pictures, like pictures taken with another phone, or you want to move pictures to sub-folders then the option is no longer available.
Basically to use the feature you need to dump all your pictures into just one big messy folder....
PS: this used to work very well in EMUI4, all pictures could be shown on the map regardless of which folder they were stored in.
Does anybody know if the gallery app in the Oreo update removes this limitation?
Hi,
I decided to try out the live photos function in the camera app as it could be fun to have some short video clips when taking pictures of our dog etc
So, I take the picture and it works well to watch the picture and the video in the inbuilt gallery app. However, the photo backup to Google Photos and Flickr just includes the picture and not the video (or, at least, I can't see the videos on Google Photos or Flickr, it might be included in the uploaded file somehow?)
I tried transferring the picture to my pc too for backup there, but same story again, can only see the picture, not the video.
Anyone know if there's a way to fix this so the video part doesn't disappear when I have to free up space on the phone?
I tried deleting a live photo from the phone and redownload it to the phone to see if I then could view the live part in the gallery again. I could not
I've tried googling for a solution to this for LG phones, but I can't find a thing, just a bunch of stuff for iPhone and Pixel phones.
Got a solution of sorts: If I view the video part in the gallery I get an option in the lower right corner to save it as a video and if I do that, that video uploads to Google Photos etc
After upgrade to the April 5 ,Android Q beta 2 update, the camera folder suddenly disappeared altogether from Google photos!!
The photos are still there on the device if I go to a file manager but are not appearing in Google photos, the whole camera folder (and all other on device photos) is gone.
I downloaded another gallery app to test and the on device photos appear in some and not in others,wherever they do appear the photo file size appears as 0 bytes in the gallery ,even though file manager shows they are 3-4 mb.
Anybody else who experienced this and any way to resolve this ?
Cheers
I just noticed the same bug. When I take a photo and click on the image, the camera app crashes and google photos does not recognize the new pictures. They are viewable in the file manager.
I cannot replicate this bug on my device.
I found the fix. You have to re-enable permissions to photos & videos for the camera apk and google photos apk. The update must have broken the permissions.
