Hi,
Lately I've been having problems with my SGSIII.
Problem started while I was on CM10.2 stable.
At one point (after a few days), every time I tried to download a photo using any browser, the download would be unsuccessful (gets to 100% downloading, then error's out saying "Download unsuccessful.").
I tried multiple browsers but didn't help. Some of them said the SD card is inaccessible, but I have no external SD card (had it before, but removed it).
Also, I noticed that the photos I took wouldn't show up in the gallery (would not load thumbnails or show photos), and every new photo I would take would not appear listed.
So I thought that was a CM10.2 bug, and exchanged it with a stock based ROM (NeatROM 6.1), but the problems persisted, except now it shows old photos in the gallery, but every time I would take a new photo the Camera app would freeze.
Transferring files from a PC has no problems, and the Internal Storage shows 3.5 GB of free space.
I tried clearing the data of Gallery app, Browser, tried wiping cache/data/dalvik, fixing permissions over CWM, but nothing helped.
Any suggestion what could cause this problem and how could I fix it?
I checked the forums and googled the problem, but haven't found a solution.
Thanks!

Tried a couple of other things and it didn't work, so I had to resort to reflashing stock firmware. Reflash managed to fix the problem, but too bad I didn't manage to find the culprit of the problem

i can't seem to record any video. camera app is working fine but whenever i switch to camcorder, it acts like it's recording but when i go to gallery, it's saying file cannot be displayed or played. when i try to play those files on a pc, it says it's not a video file/file corrupted.
has anyone experienced this?
I haven't. And I just used mine a couple days ago. Now this may also be silly but have you tried using the camcorder app? Rather than switching to video mode in the camera app. (I really don't think that will make a difference but worth a shot)
Are you recording to Internal storage? If so then you shouldn't have a problem, but if your recording to ext-sd then maybe your SD card is malfunctioning. I'd try a factory data reset if your recording to Internal Storage, and a new SD card otherwise.
If it is an SD card issue, there is a couple things he could do before replacing it, such as unmount/remount, and if that doesn't work, back up his data and wipe it. Then if neither of those work, get a new SD card.
A buddy had a similar issue with music, had to unmount then remount the card to get the phone to access the music on it. That worked. So.
I had a similiar issue, factory reset did not fix it, nor did a reflash of the latest sbf. Here is what finally did:
1) Reflash or hard reset stock rom
2) Only set up initial email
3) open the camera/camcorder (should prompt you for storage location)
4) open gallery
5) finish set up of everything else
I had the exact same problem where they would not show up or show up corrupted. I also had an issue trying to put pics into an album though the stock app (would force close).
Good luck and post back with your results.
After flashing a new rom, my camara stop showing pictures in the actual camara app. I can still take pictures but I have to use a file explorer to actually see the pictures that were taken. Anyone have any idea how to fix this.
Also a related problem. I cannot play music using the music app either. I have to use my file explorer to see my music files.
anyone else having the issue?
You probably want to post a message in the thread of whatever rom it is you flashed.. as it seems like a rom-specific problem. If you have your music/pictures saving to an sd card it's probably an issue with where your gallery/music is looking for pictures/songs. Contact the developer.
Different datestamp on pics
What i noticed is that some of my pictures got datestamped wrong and therefore i *thought* they arent showing up.
In reality they really WERE showing up just completely different date then what i'd expect them to.
I noticed the problem on both "stock with goodies" rom and "mean rom".. The first two roms I installed had no issues. I noticed the problem following installing 1.52 stock with goodies so I am not sure that its a rom specific problem

Guys ,
I am currently using WanamLite XXELK4 V5.0 as my daily driver for my International Galaxy s3. Lately i have been experiencing two very annoying problems with the gallery and swiftkey apps. When i try to open my gallery from either the camera or gallery app (and at times even quickpic for that matter!) i get an error saying there is not enough space and i need to delete other items which is ridiculous since i have about 10 gig on stock memory free (i don't have an external sd installed).Secondly my swiftkey says it cant load the language pack and when i try to redownload it fails. I am mentioning this because these two errors almost always occur together.
Factory resetting my phone when updated to the xxelk4 rom seemed to have resolved the issues but only temporarily as after two or so weeks the errors are back. When in this state i also get database errors when trying to view the pics from Quickpic and when i take pics with the stock camera app (or third party camera apps) it shoots but does not save the images and it appears to be a data/database corruption issue but i don't understand what could be causing it i have run a disk defrag app on my phone once or twice and i wonder if this could have caused some problems with the integrity of my internal storage.
I have tried clearing app data but this does not solve the problem and fixing permissions in recovery proves to be only a temporary solution.I am hoping there is some help for me out there my internet serached thus far havent yielded any effective solutions.HELP!

Did you get any answer?
Hi,
I'm on Omega ROM V24 XWLSW (4.1.2) and I have recently encountered a weird and annoying problem. At first, I noticed that Instagram couldn't refresh its feed and trying to load videos made it crash, then I saw Facebook was refreshing feed, but not loading pictures. I didn't know what caused this and I thought it was app-related, but then I saw the gallery thumbnails appearing as simply grey squares, and when trying to load a picture it loads it with "lag" (imagine the picture divided to 16 squares, and each square loads after another...). Then I realised it had to do with the internal memory.
Every time I reboot it's back to normal, but after a period of time (which I can't really say is constant) the internal memory is back on "half-sleep". I can still access it with file explorers and I can still view pictures on it via gallery (read above), but apps like Instagram/Facebook/WhatsApp can't use it (I can't download photos). Maybe it becomes read-only? I don't know. When I connect the phone to my computer with the USB function in "Settings" it has to reload the internal memory and the SD card so it also timely resolves the problem.
I have no idea what causes this and I'm asking here for any suggestions you guys might have before I factory reset or whatever.
Thanks in advance!
Nobody?
So, I updated to MIUI 10.1.3 (Official Pie update) a couple of days ago and I've noticed that whenever I open the Camera app and try to switch to video, I get a huge delay, before I can go on about capturing anything.
There is a 5 or so second delay, before the video window shows up and another 5 seconds until the video capture button becomes responsive.
I fiddled around with the Camera settings and it turns out that the "Save to SD Card" setting is responsible for the lag. Considering I've always been saving my shots on the SD Card and I've never had this issue before the Pie update, I'm inclined to believe that the problem doesn't come from my SD Card.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar, before or after the MIUI 10.1.3 Update and is there a way to fix this without having to turn the setting off?
I am having the same issue after change save to sd card, mine is even worst, the camera only start running after 20 seconds change to video mode. i am using micro sd SAMSUNG EVO PLUS 64GB.
If you want this resolved, you should report the bugs you have found (with video to show it) to MIUI devs directly
I am having the same problem
Same issue! Pushing record button and dont know is it started, then realised that phone is lagging. Im using save to an SD card option. Im still new with this phone.
I have problem with portrait mode in rear camera, take the photo but no apply boke effect
Hi,
I had the same problem and realized too that it came from saving photos on my SD card (a Samsung Evo 128 Go).
I solved (= bypassed) the problem using the Magisk module "Fbind" (I put the instruction "from_to DCIM DCIM" [without quotes] in the config.txt file to put in the folder "storage/emulated/0/fbind").
Now, I still save my photos on my SD card but "cheat" the phone by making it believe it saves photos on the internal storage ("Save to SD Card" is now disabled in the configuration of the app).
Everything works fine now for me...
Ok, so i was about to start a new topic about this problem when i found this.
Now, the last reply is 5 days ago suggesting to "cheat" the camera by faking save to internal storage by magisk.
Is there no official, normal fix for this yet?
Is this problem reported to the devs already?
I'm facing the same problem. I sent the thread link via feedback app. I hope they solve...

I'm facing the same lagging time for video recording
Did you find any solution rather to 'cheating one"
Thanks
