Galaxy S5 :: Photo Gallery - Lost All Pictures Under Camera Tab After Phone Update
Feb 15, 2015
I own a Samsung Galaxy S-5, and after a Samsung software update (performed on February 13, 2015) all of my pictures in my Gallery under my camera tab have disappeared. I called Samsung and they had me search the phone in several places to look for the pictures with no luck. Has anyone lost pictures after an update? How to find my photos? I did not have auto-back up on, but I do now.
I have deleted a couple of albums from the Gallery...one with pictures taken with the phone. How can i recover these ?...not on cloud, etc...only in Gallery.
Whenever i take a snap on my camera, my phone is going straight into the photo gallery, which is very annoying when i want to keep taking pictures to get that right shot. The quality also seems very pixely, compared to another S5 when i held both up together.
i have updated my n8 to anna with all the required files. but after update i noticed that the gallery only shows the images that i have clicked with camera not other pics in the pictures folder. when i later moved those pics from pictures folder to camera folder i was able to see them in gallery. now this isnt convenient.
I recently went to a festival, and took my old Samsung Galaxy S2. Once I was home, I transferred a load of the videos I had taken onto my HTC, placing them in a new folder; HTC One_M8Internal storagePicturesGlobal.
I noticed that after doing that, I no longer had any pictures on my HTC that had been taken with the camera, which I thought was odd. I have now taken the videos back off my HTC, and my pictures still aren't there.
The only pictures that are present are the thumbnails, which are not useful.
My wife recently noticed that several recent photos on her phone were missing. Over the course of several days more photos either disappeared or were corrupted.
I'm not sure if it's related but recently here phone screen starts to dim and flicker if charging or left alone for a little while.
Is there anything I can do to stop this apparent spread of corrupted data? I ran virus scanners and she is using only the internal memory, no extra SD card,
I backed up all photos from my old phone Samsung s4 (which is now completely dead) and transferred them to the new one Samsung s6. Apparently they can be only seen on a APP called photos but not on my gallery. How can I move them.
I have taken some pictures with my phone, Xperia Mini Pro but I cannot view the pictures after it was taken in the picture gallery. This happened for certain pictures that i took. I've tried to review it in my laptop but still can't. I've checked the pictures details and noted that it were around 600kb and 1MB which meant the pictures are there but I can't view it.
Recently I've noticed that all my pictures in the gallery have lost the clarity and seem out of focus (blurry,pixelated) and any new pictures i take are the same. HTC ONE M8
I have been using Samsung phone series since long. I never faced ever any kind of difficulties to use other series of Samsung except Samsung S6....First of all there is no option to forward contact name and numbers through SMS. Second is all photos has been shifted from Phone Gallery to Google Gallery. Now I unable to add any photos in my contact numbers also I downloaded photo but did not find in the photo gallery.
I have several pictures that I want to use for my wallpaper, that are not in my gallery. When I go to set wallpaper, the only choice for a place to look is my gallery. How do I get a picture out of drive, or my email , to my gallery?
I downloaded android version on samsung s5.can open app and sight with the leveling tools, then hold the middle button (menu), photo is not being dumped to gallery, instead i am getting popup of google "get now" card.
How can I edit/delete photo tags that I've created?There are now some duplicates, wrongly spelled etc., but just can't find their locations, or how to edit them?!
When i take photo's it displays them in the gallery ok but when I try to open them it just displays black with a grey box with a break through the middle of it
The gallery doesn't show all photo's which i've made...just a few photo's ( 30 ).When i am mannually searching in the DCIM folder using a file manager, i see 74 photo's....My S6 isn't rooted or something like that.
I changed from Note 4 to Z5. All the "camera pictures" came over when i did the transfer, but none of the other folders. Is this normal? Is there a way to get IT like I had on the Note? When I transfered from Note 2 till 4 last time everything was the same in gallery..
I have several hundred photos on my new S6 that came originally from my iPhone that show up fine in my gallery. When I open Google Photo, I only see very few pics, mostly what was taken with the S6 and what is on my Google Drive.
I recently upgraded my defy (with optus) to android 2.2 and haven't had many issues.
One thing that bugs me is when i take images with my camera now, they don't appear in the gallery. The small diplay on the bottom left displays the image but as soon as i click on it to view the image it appears to delete it.
When I click on a photo in gallery, it gives me several options, one of which is share via email. When I choose this the email opens and I can send, but the recipient, just get pages of code not the photo. If I create an email I can attach the photo and it sends. I also get this when i try to forward some photos i receive via email, they just receive code.
I've read in the edge subforum, even my s6 flat has some problem when I try to view a photo in the gallery on landscape. It stuck in normal view. In other app (message,browser and others) it works fine? I've try wipe cache and wipe data gallery app but it still doesn't works.
Version 5.02 ... The Gallery is not showing pictures that I download / save from a browser, or save an image from face book. I restore a bunch of photo's and put them in DCIM > Camera folder along with the other pictures I've take, but those don't show up either. The only pictures that show up in the gallery are those that I take with the Camera. I checked the other folders for the .nomedia file, and I don't see it.
