Gallery bug? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay here is the problem.. A few months ago, I'm still using original FW from Samsung (GB, 2.3.3).. And out of the blue, this problem occur in my gallery apps (see the red circle in the right;when I view that image, there are nothing to display..) The annoying thing is when I delete that file, it disappear for a moment.. But when I close the gallery apps and opened it again, the files come back again
So I decided to upgrade my FW using custom ROM and rooted my phone. And voila, the annoying thing was gone.. But out of the blue again, the problem came back, and now with another one (in the past there were two, but now become three) I'm just curious how to delete this files, because no matter what, it always come back, and I can't find it either using root explorer.. I know this problem may be solved by freezing gallery via Titanium and using another gallery apps in play store.. But I just wanna use Samsung stock gallery as my image viewer.. Anyone had the same problem with me? Thanks!

sometime i have this trouble, but i replace Gallery to Quickpic and it fixed

Yeah, I did that too before.. But I still think that original Samsung stock gallery was the best image viewer for me =P
One of my friends had the same problem, but the difference is he find that weird annoying thing in the gallery folder (I didn't know which one he used.. My files or root explorer or something else like that) and succesfully delete it.. But as I mention before, I can't find it through root explorer =(

Hmm.. Maybe the case was different in every handset.. In your case, maybe it can be solved by the method that you mention before.. But mine was different (maybe)

[Q] Issues with the contacts on LPH ROMs

Hi, the truth is I´m having a little strange issue. First I thought it was a problem in a ROM. but after trying a few LPH ROMs and start removing things, I have concluded that it is the contacts syncro. I´ll try to explain myself a bit better to see if someone comes up with some solution.
If I install any LPH ROM (I tried 5 or 6 different) and I skip the gmail account, I have no problems in access to the contacts app or the phone one, but when I sync with gmail two things happens:
1. I can still go to the phone, from there to favorites and from there to all contacts. In this way, I see contacts perfectly.
2. But If I go to the contacts application The screen locks turns into to black, after that the phone application also crashes and I have to reboot.
I tried to correct permissions. Even with a cache cleaner (read that cleaning the cache of the contacts could help) but I'm pretty sure it will not be the correct way to clean the cache of contacts.
Let's see if someone comes up with a little something becouse I´m running out of resources ...
Thanks and best regards

if you have back up your data etc....... You better flash to root stock, to see if problem solved. Then take it step by step on another rom.

reboot is not the answer!
my phones is only 2 days old and i would seriously hope that rebooting it after only 2 days is the answer to fix my problem.

Yes, I think so.
I just wanna know, Is anyone found this issue like me? Is this software problem? To make sure that my device is fine.
Go into settings, applications, manage applications and find the gallery under all tab and click clear data and clear cache.

Galaxy S 3 Crashes when copying to clipboard!! Help!

About 2 days ago my galaxy S3 started crashing the app when i would i would copy something to clipboard in that particular app. Happened in messages, contacts, and I'm testing what other apps.
but no1 has figured out a fix yet. I am running go launcher and have a feeling that, that might be the issue. I really don't want to factory reset -_- but if I have to i will. anybody?
if you think that Go luancher maybe the issue, why not just download another launcher from the market and see if it goes away while your running that launcher ---- i would do this first instead of a factory reset.

just tried apex launcher, and even went back into touchwiz and the same problem occurs. ill hold down a message or a contact. press copy message text or whatever else, and the black screens and a FC. Stock browser and stock contacts. I tried copying text from an email, but the interesting thing now is if i go to long press in any composition field i don't get a past option. Just a "clipboard" option and pressing that doesn't do anything
Have you tried Wiping Delvik Cache and fixing permissions in CWM??
I had the same problem and a factory reset sorted it out....try doing it

Hi everyone,
I also had this problem, I found a solution without do a factory reset.
The app in question is TestService.
First you have to clean the directory /data/clipboard, delete everything in it with root explorer. After that, go to manage applications and find the app TestService, uninstall the updates.
After a reboot, copy/paste should work again.

What did you do? Having the same problem since last week. I hope you can help.
It will crash whatever you try to copy from. The factory reset was the only thing that fixed mine seeing as I didn't want to root my S III immediately.

read the link, there's a fix in that forum for rooted users
same problem on tab

Same thing happening to me on my samsung galaxy tab. Started two days ago, as well. Samsung tech support told me to reset to factory. I don't want to, I have too many apps, picture, videos etc on my tab. BUMMED I read about stopping testservice. Did that, still no joy. Said to clear data/clipboard folder. I checked, and NO clipboard folder can be found in my data folder.

"Introducing Smart Notice" won't go away

So I'm using the smart notice widget on my home screen, and for whatever reason, the introductory card that explains what Smart Notice is pops up multiple times every day. Even if I tap OK or the X button, I'll still keep getting the notification for it. Is this happening to anyone else? Is there a way to get it to stop?
Is no one else having this issue? Surely I can't be the only one. I've been searching for a way to fix this, but clearing the cache for the widget doesn't seem to do the trick.
Any suggestions?

Did you go into its settings and set it up? If not, try that, and also try rebooting.

Thanks a lot! Just for reference, the offending folder's name was "initial_guide_my_concierge." For me at least, but you can modify or remove just about any card from that directory.

Yeah I made an update zip for it a few days ago just in case I need to put it back for any reason..
Make sure you read the request box, there is a small checked box on the lower corner. Don't uncheck it, then press ok.. And it should not show you it again, this is the same for all the help tips.

Wrong thumbnail issue

Hi! I am having some funny issue with my phone and I am not sure what caused it. I recently reset my phone and have also updated to the December version of OOS.
My problem is that the gallery in instagram and whatsapp is not showing the right thumbnails of pictures. It would show a thumbnail of some other picture but when I tap it shows a different picture.
I thought it might be some cache of app data issue, i cleaned everything and even reset my phone again but the problem is still there. Even the new images doesn't show the right thumbnail but instead shows a thumbnail of an old picture.
Have the same problem on WhatsApp havent find a solution... When i click on Galerie every thumbnail is right... Also cleaned cache... Resetet my phone

Same issue in OnePlus 7t
I'm also having the same issue with thumbnails in OnePlus 7t. I restored my phone yesterday and Had everything back installed, all the updates and apps. But today onwards I'm having this issue with thumbnails. To view this issue has been seen on Whatsapp, Instagram and even in wallpapers when we choose photos it shows a thumbnail of old photo and when we click, it's a different image. I coward ask the cache and thumbnails. Nothing works
Same here
Unfortunately, this is the fault of the OnePlus gallery application, which is unusable, I have long switched to the gallery from "Simple Mobile Tools" from the Google Store.

I'm having this same issue. I tried disabling the Oneplus gallery App and this does not change anything, so maybe could be an OxygenOS/Android10 issue... any solutions so far?
