Change filepath to default camera - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hi, After installing Lineage 16 the default camera has changed the filepath for saved pictures. On the old build, I had a DCIM folder on my SD card and pictures were saved there. With LOS 16, when I choose to save to "internal", the camera saves the pictures to /internal/DCIM. However, if I choose to save to SD, pictures are saved in /SDcard/Android/data/org.lineageos.snap/files
In Gallery app the pictures saved on the internal storage are shown under the label "camera". The ones saved on SD are labeled "file".
Is there a way to have the pictures saved on /SDcard/DCIM as I used to have before upgrading? Is there a workaround?
I am running LOS 16 on a Samsung S5 KLTE.
Thanks in advance

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?

Problem deleting photos using gallery.

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?

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.

[ZE500KG] Question about preload photos in Gallery

I have just purchased an ASUS ZenFone 2 Laser ZE500KG. It comes preloaded with some photos in the Gallery (in folder DCIM on Internal Storage, their file names are "m_1 ... 10 .jpg/.png"), and some of them look very nice. I accidentally delete some of them and now I can't figure out how to bring them back.
Could someone give me any idea how to recover those photos; or if you have purchased this phone, could you extract those photos and upload them somewhere so I can download them.
Thanks in advance.

Annoying "feature" of the Gallery app

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?
