Hey! I have an annoying problem with camera & photos on my OP3...
Camera launches fine but when I take a photo its not saved. If I try the Google Camera it says error while trying to snap a photo. Same issues on both OxygenOS and CM13.
Solved it once by formatting the whole internal memory (factory wipe didnt help), but now the bug is back again without reason - it worked earlier today but not now anymore?!?!? :S
The thing is, I really don't wanna format and set all things up all over again... Restoring a backup doesn't help... its like its another "external" thing thats broken.
I tried looking over permissions and clearing app data and what not... all the basic stuff is already tested out without progress!
Usually solve most stuff myself but this is just wierd. Anyone else had this problem? Solution? :angel: :good:
SOLVED: By doing a full backup in TWRP (system, data, boot) then copying it to PC. Then format data, copy back the backup from PC and restore it in TWRP. Voila, now it works by restoring the exact same backup where taking photos didn't work before. So its definently something else, which is solved by formatting everything on the phone!
I've had the same issue on my OnePlus 3 running stock OxygenOS (3.2.1).
I managed to resolve it by clearing the data on the camera app, which can be done by opening the Settings and going to the Apps list. Select the Camera app and click on the Storage information which then gives you the option to 'Clear Data'. This in effect resets the Camera app and seems to resolve the issue.

So, my GVoice app stopped working about a week ago. It would just crash on load. I went to clear the cache for it, and it was at 1.17GB. It wouldn't clear, I couldn't delete it with temproot. I renamed the folder, and that fixed it. The data is still there though.
The next day I went into my app management, and my browser, facebook, and a couple other apps have around 500-800MB. Again, I hit clear data/clear cache, it doesn't give me an error, but it also doesn't clear it.
Any idea whats going on? This happening to anyone else? I have run the cache cleaner from recovery as well. I just updated tot he new OTA, problem is still there. Everything seems to run fine though.
Sounds like something you did in one of your applications or in the settings is "Protecting" the cache. My best suggestion when all else fails is backup using titanium backup and then do a restore to factory settings and data in both bootloader and in recovery. Backup the sd card and wipe it as well, then just put personal data back to your sd card and restore with titanium, and all problems should be resolved
Hi, it seems that i have installed 2 roms on my nexus gsm. One is the manhattan rom and the other is the Team Kang Milestone 4. Have tried the manhattan one first, camera app lets me take photos, but when i want to browse through the photos, it wont allow me. i use gallery, and it said, "no storage, no external storage available". same thing happened when i install the team kang milestone 4. now im worried, plz help. is it rom problem or phone problem? sry for my bad eng...
Try downloading a file, or otherwise exploring your storage to see if that is the issue. Then go to settings -> apps -> all and clear the data for gallery.
Are you wiping everything between flashing different roms?
Storage no issue. Available 10gb. tried the settings part. doesnt work. Im wiping everything when im installing rom, but after wiping everything i install the milestone 4 and a aokp theme. tried manhattan, also the same problem
someone plz help...
same problem =/ everything works fine except the gallery app, tried AOKP build 31 and Black ICE 31.31...
Bring up the thread.
Stock Gallery app (from AOKP B34) showed "No external storage available" then quitted. QuickPic can see everything, but keeps showing up "unable to open database file" and had to cache again everything. The MTP file transfer isn't working properly right now, everything takes a very long time to show up.
I rebooted like 50 times already. Also tried wiped and reflashed. Already tried Android Revolution HD wipe zip file. No difference.
Anyone managed to fix this?
Edit: Fixed this using the ToolKit, re-locked and re-unlocked the bootloader, everything on the sdcard card folder gone. Must have been something wrong with the partition. Anyway, this is shame. Gotta be some more civilized way to do this.
Same problem here, "No external storage available" when opening the Gallery app.

This does not help for me.
I already did that before flashing the ROM to have a really clean device.
are you guys doing full wipes here?
in cwm
1) wipe cache/factory reset
2) mounts and storage > wipe /system
3) flash rom
4) flash gapps
5) advanced > wipe dalvik
6) reboot phone
I have this same problem, AOKP b36 and franco kernal M3.
Gallery won't open but ES file explorer etc can see the photos fine.
Full wipe did not fix it.
Just backing everything up and will try lock/unlock bootloader
edit: hooray, locking/unlock did indeed fix the problem. Thanks

I also had this problem with QuickPic (on a different device). Solved the problem by formatting the sdcard. I did NOT need to touch the system.
Hi everyone, three days ago i updated my Galaxy Nexus to the latest 4.2 version, from the stock 4.2 (the one without december in the people app).
Yesterday i started to realize some weird behaviors with overall apps, and here are some of them:
. Câmera app : Photo is taken, but can't visualize it
. Galery app : Shows ammount of photos in each album, but all the thumbnails are solid gray, and no photo can be selected for visualization
. Swiftkey Keyboard : Keeps raising error related to "Dynamic Language Packs" (since swiftkey stores the dynamic packs in the sdcard/internal storage, this might be another access issue)
. All apps that use camera activity : Camera is loaded but once i took the photo, it does not return to the app, and the camera app keeps open. No photo is returned to the app that invoked the camera aswell
. Dropbox : Can't export to internal storage any file, sometimes it manages to finally "read" the internal storage and show me directories structure, and sometimes it doesn't. In both situations, file "fails to export".
This seems a really weird behavior to me, and i thought that it might be a "Permission" issue, so i got in recovery mode and fixed permissions, but nothing got solved.
Is there any other step i might take before having to actually try a full wipe / factory reset ?
Having to reinstall / reconfigure all the apps is a pain in the butt, and since i can't backup them with titanium because of the internal storage issue, i would have to do it "manually".
By the way : Play store can update and download apps with no problem at all, so this is not a hardware issue for sure.
Try this wipe cache via recovery and dalvik cache and then flash latest root.
This should work.

Wiping cache and Dalvik Cache will not erase all my internal storage right ?
EDIT: Wiping Cache and Dalvik have not worked
Weird Issue:
After booting up into recovery mode, and try to Install .ZIP from sdcard, the CMW does not actually find any other folder in my sdcard than some weird ones like "0", "odb" and "legacy".
What are those folders ?
Why it does not sees the other folders ?

Nevermind, i just reinstalled the Factory Stock 4.2 Android and updated to 4.2.1 OTA
Then i rooted it and everything is ok now.
I was rooted, had Philz CWM recovery, agni kernel and xposed. Everything worked fine, I used to get forced reboots when the system heated up but it was nothing new, everything worked like it used to after reboot.
Since just today I changed to "winter 3d LWP" which is mildly graphics intensive, didnt experience any lag.
Then when I pressed the home button sometime later that day, the 3d wallpaper stretched across and after sometime, phone rebooted but was stuck in loop this time. just to make sure i accessed philz recovery mode and rebooted from there. It took some time for the system to boot but everything was reset to default, all the app data and phone settings were reset excluding the data I manually put there, which seemed like the dalvik cache was wiped or something. So i accessed the recovery mode again and rebooted since i couldn't find anything that would help.
But after boot i got the same interface, it asked me to login to dropbox and asked to login and stuff which I already did after the app data was automatically wiped the first time.
Is this some philz recovery glitch?
Any possible way I can get the data back? Not possible though but anything will be appreciated since this is the third time I'm losing my data. It's tough to recover from that situation.
Normally this won't happen for the reboot problem you can try to change the agni settings by using the default oc setting for cpu and gpu.
And try to take backup of your app data through any backup apps like Tb so next time something happens you can at least restore everything
And also do a nandroid backup always.
please press the thanks button if i helped
I don't really tinker with any clock settings. Exynos here gets heat up easily.
Do I have to take a nandroid backup and another backup parallel to it? Or just nandroid would do?
I need to export backup directly to external storage excluding SD card. I have OTG, would that work with external hdd for import?

nandroid backup will take the complete backup of you phone including apps, data, efs, modem, etc. its like a emergency restore of the full phone.
and try to take a backup through TB so you can even restore only the data of the apps in some cases.
regarding OTG i think it can be, anyway you can try it.
Hi, first of all, I apologise for my english, I'm not very good at it, but I'll try to write the best I can.
I'm posting this because I'm having troubles with the rear camera in my Lenovo Vibe K5 plus running LineageOS 14.1-20170515-NIGHTLY-A6020. Last week i've used the camera a lot, and then suddenly some photos started to appear half-black (bottom half), and others just can't be opened. I've backuped all the SD card (with photo files in it) and then format it with FAT32 filesystem, but then I've realized that the trouble was with the camera app, and after wipe dalvik and cache and erase the app data, I've decided to format the phone storage and make a clean install of LineageOS 14.1-20170515-NIGHTLY-A6020 (before I was using AOSP-extended in his last version). Lineage OS works better than AOSP-extended in my phone, but the camera doesn't open, it just show a black screen with the capture button, and sometimes shows image for a few seconds and then freezes... A very few times it shows the image properly and works just right, and even I can take some pictures, but if I close the camera app and I open it again, the trouble comes back.
This problem occurs also in every app that uses camera, like Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp.
Any idea? I've erase app data, erase system cache, wipe dalvik, installed Google camera and nothing works for me
