Problem deleting photos using gallery. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Currently i am running CM9 final 8/10 and experiencing a problem deleting photos using the gallery app.
1. Set camera Storage: SD Card.
2. Take picture.
3. Open Gallery, delete picture taken in step 2.
4. Using Solid Explorer (or similar) navigate to /sdcard/DCIM/Camera-- picture taken in step 2 is still there.
In fact, after a reboot the picture will re-appear in Gallery. It seems that Gallery is deleting the photo from the media index, but not the actual photo on the SD Card.
Quick Google search brings up similar issues on other devices but no solution. Can someone confirm this issue, and maybe help resolve?

Sd card or gallery problem?

So, I don't know exactly where this problem started, but now whenever I take a picture with my camera the picture only shows up in the gallery until I reboot my phone. Then the "camera" album disappears until I take a new picture, but only the new picture appears in the album, none of the older ones. the dcim folder o on my sd card has a ton of pictures though.... Any thoughts?

[Q] Defy+ Some pictures not viewable in Gallery

Over on the Motoblur forums, myself and a few others using both Defy and Defy+ have a problem with the Gallery. 'Older' pictures (really only 10 days old in my case as the device is brand new) can not be viewed; only the picture icon is seen. However, the pictures are fine and viewable when uploaded to PC.
Deleting the thumbnail sub-folder had no effect.
I am using a new Kingston 32 gig card with very little on it.
Any help much appreciated.
Try installing a different gallery apk. I'm not shure if the apk works in the Defy+ ROM aswell, but you can try, worst case scenario you do a restore from the recovery.

Wroked for me on CM7.1
Compile the link, I can not post cause I'm new to the forum
is it class10? if it is than you got yourself a problem.
if not, try to reformat it, try using quickpic from market, free and fast gallery ap
thanks for replies:
- its a class 4 card.
- installed quickpic and my pictures are back )
- interestingly, when I went back to Gallery, the effected pictures showed momentarily, then disappeared back to the picture icon
- so, do i conclude the Gallery is rubbish? is this a warranty issue?
- how do i make quickpic the default viewer from camera?
(out of interest, and just in case....excuse my ignonance, but do i re-format using Defy+ or via my (Windows 9) PC?)
thanks

Instagram low resolution on HOX

Did anyone notice that the pictures you take when using instagram are much lower in resolution than the ones you take when using the stock camera?
Unticking the "advanced camera" option under instagram settings doesn't do much since you're gonna have to crop your picture again.
Any thoughts?

Yeah that's instagram for you, the pictures are resized to crap.
or taken in a lower resolution using their 'advanced' camera in part of the app.
Just the way it is.
That's just how Instagram works.

Images are always cropped down within instagram. Even the images you took with the stock camera you upload there. Just take a look into the instagram photo folder on your internal memory. They're all cropped down BADLY.
Thats just how Instagram works. Small images means less traffic and faster loading times. Thats why you cant watch images in full screen within the app either.
Thanks guys, I thought so.. this is getting annoying!

Damn, I wondered how they got the pictures to upload so fast!

Sorry for thread-jacking but is there any way to take pictures with Instagram and not have them uploaded? Many times I just want to make tests and it sucks that I cannot simply choose to save the files to a folder instead of uploading the pictures.
doe anyone else notice that instagram links do not open the instagram app on the HOX? For instance a tweet of the form instagr.am../asdhjd/ would give the option of opening with the instagram app on my SII but on my HOX it just gives the browser option..

Yes, just don't click upload... The pics will be saved in the instagram folder on SD

It does save the photo but it doesn´t apply the instagram effect. It also won´t let me choose the default folder or to set "never upload" as default.

Works for me. Take the photo, apply the effect(s), hit the arrows in the top right to take you to the tagging/upload screen, then just back out again. The processed photo (with effects) will be in the Instagram folder, the unprocessed photo will be in the normal camera photo folder.
Thanks. I didn´t realize it copied the photo with the effect to a different folder. All other photo apps I use automatically copy the photos to the android default photo folder.

Yea, it will copy the untouched photo to the normal photo folder, and the effect photo to the Instagram folder.

I much prefer to take pictures with the stock camera then use instagram to crop and upload, but thats just me.
yeah but wouldn't it be hard to judge how the photos should be taken because only the middle half of the photo will be cropped and uploaded onto instagram.

Can't edit or delete photos from SD card

I can take pictures and save to my SD card, but Google photos won't let me delete them, says I need to go to gallery. I go to gallery and I can delete them fine.
But neither gallery or Google photos will let me save my edits. Says "unable to save".
Anyone else?
I'm getting the exact same issue on my g4 with Google photo. I believe it's a bug with the app. I don't have the problem with the LG app though

I downloaded snapseed and I am able to edit and save to the SD card.
But Gallery won't let me save edited changes, which is odd.

Click on gallery open the camera

Hi all,
I have some issue,
When I go to gallery (The app that came originaly with the ROM) and click on "Albums" and then on "Camera" folder (So I'll see the pictures I took with the camera)ת
I automatically go straight to the "Camera" mode and not to the gallery folder i just chose.
How can I solve this problem?
I'm using Lineage 14.1 with Nano - gapps.
Thanks!
I would suggest installing a third-party Gallery app. Without advertising it, I think that browsing the Apk Mirror will solve your problem once and for all.
