HI all,
I've come across a strange issue where when I save my photos to the SD card, and I delete them off the phone using either the Gallery app or Google photos (using the delete everywhere option) the photos get removed from the gallery/google photos, but the files still exist on the SD Card. Note that I am empting the trash in google photos when I delete it too. When I browse the storage on the phone, the pictures are still there! So when I reboot the phone, the pictures come back to Google Photos and also the gallery. This does not happen when I save them to the internal storage. What is also strange is when I browse the SD Card camera directory via Windows Explorer, the photos do not appear either. Its only through the file explorer on the phone (show hidden files is enabled). I have a samsung 32 GB HDXC SD Card installed. I've also reformatted the card multiple times. Is anyone having this same issue?

It's normal in KK 4.4.2
Have a look:

Interesting. I just switch back to Android so I'm not up to date on all the changes.
I would think the stock gallery/camera app would have ownership of the SDCard/DCIM/Camera directory. Is there a workaround without rooting the phone?
I broke my LG G3 recently. I locked some photos which are saved in my sd card. Now i try to view those locked photos on my laptop and i cant open them. any way to unlock them? I tried using my friend's G3 but still does not work.
I installed CandySiX a few minutes ago and i notice that i can save photo to sdcard. Is "normal"? If yes, wich camera i should install that have the option to save to sd card? Thank you.
Hi. Some of my photos in gallery are corrupted, it's not with all of it but only with few. Problem started when i unlocked bootloader and installed WOLLA rom. Firstly, i cannot connect with mobile data, it won't working, then photos started to crash in gallery. I've tried to do all of possible wipes and instal WOLLA again and it helped for some time. Then after a few weeks of usage my photos are corrupted again. Mobile data and everything work well. When i take photo and check immediately in gallery it seems to be okay. But after a few hours when i come back to gallery some of my photos are seen as corrupted. What can be a problem here? I'm sure it's not an SD card because i've bought a new one few weeks ago Kingston SDHC 32GB UHS-I U3 . My firmware is 6.14.69.4 and WOLLA base firmware is 6.12.401.4, can it cause this problem? Thanks for any help guys
There's a screenshots in attachments

SD can go bad at any time. True that a newer one is less likely to fail, but not impossible.
Try formatting the SD card (of course copy photos you want to keep somewhere else like PC, before you format), and see if that helps (or try a different SD). Maybe the problem is something else, but the SD is a easy place to start troubleshooting (and at least eliminate it as the cause).
I assume you are using the SD card as the location for saving photos on the camera app?
Yep, my photos are saving on sd card now, but this problem was when my photos saving to internal storage too so i think sd card cannot be a problem here :/

I've got the same issue. After installing official Lineage OS 14.1 I started to have corrupted photos in the gallery. I'd say it's a gallery app problem, because when you take a new photo and then go from camera app to gallery app, earlier taken pictures, which in gallery app were corrupted, in the camera app are being shown correctly.
Have you managed to solve the problem @sonderling ?
