Nougat Gallery Media Scanning Issue - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having an issue with media scanning on my G925F (Galaxy S6 Edge) with CarHDRom V.30 based on XXU5EQCK build Nougat.
When I save pictures they dont appear in the gallery till I restart my phone, I'd like to get Gallery working properly without using a separate Gallery app.
I've tried installing MM Gallery but it doesn't work on Nougat for some reason.
Does anyone have a solution to this issue?
I've tried downloading and installing a later version of Gallery, the same issue persists.

[Q] Problem with ls-kk-v3.0-2014-03-10 for samsung galaxy s2 t989

I installed ls-kk-v3.0-2014-03-10 kitkat 4.4.2 firmware on my phone and used a notes lite app to keep down some important information. Today, the phone's battery died Nd upon recharging it and turning it on, it was as if the firmware was just installed. I had to set up the home screen again, however my old wallpaper was still intact although out of focus, my bookmarks from the chrome browser were gone, contact names gone, apps still there.
However, the notes in the notes lite app were gone. How can I find my old notes? Why was everything reset like this anyways?

Android Auto and Le Max2

Hi,
i´m using the
[X82X][AOSP][7.1.2][VoLTE][UNOFFICIAL] Dirty Unicorns 7.1.2 [ViperFX/DolbyAtmos]
Rom on my Leeco Max 2 and want to use Android Auto.
But when i try to start the app it turn the screen black and after some seconds i´m back on my home screen.
Android auto is not loading. There is no error message.
I have used the Beans Google apps and installed Android Auto form Play Store.
Before on stock Rom is was able to start Android Auto but it does not connect to my car.
Someone can help me?
Do i need to installed a different android auto version????
Play Services are up to date.
I have the exact same problem on Stock EUI rom and on RR rom. Android Auto works on Stock rom on phone itself but if I connect to the car it appears on the in car display for a second and then disconnects and says phone disconnected on the head unit (FYI this is on a 2017 Columbus head unit, so basically any Audi/vw/seat/skoda).
I use cuocco Rom.
There Android auto is better but not completely working.
I can use Google maps and Spotify.
Also Whatsapp and Threema are working for incoming messages (AA is using text to speech).
But trying to send a Threema or Whatsapp message is not possible. Google does not recognize the messenger. It stucks at : "which messenger should I use? SMS, Threema or Whatsapp?"
I say : "Whatsapp"
But Google ask the question again.... And again
Maybe it will be get fixed some time....
Android Auto worked pretty well in LineageOS Marshmallow if I remember correctly. I haven't had any luck with Nougat roms.
Hello weeks ago post about android auto and leeco max 2, the stock ROM does not have the audio source option in developer options, so it is impossible to connect the leeco Max 2 to my car Kia river. Install lineage OS 6.0.1 and works correctly, calls, Google maps, Spotify, WhatsApp, SMS, only in the last update of Google app speech recognition fails to have the option on any screen, solve it by choosing only in android auto. The disadvantage is the battery consumption and lag with the fingerprint sensor. I do not know if there is a stock-based kernel that I added that option for Android auto
Android Auto does not work on my Max2 with current Rom. Which Rome works with a Skoda Octavia 2020? thanks
Heyyo @twicko, can you please tell us which ROM you are on and which GApps package you are using?
I use lineage. So it works now.

[HELP] MultiWindow focus loss

Hi, i often use Poweramp besides Google Maps in MultiWidow.
On my old S5 running RR 5.8.3 as well as on my new 1+5 the following occurs:
When using one of the two apps, the other one isn't focused anymore and "stops".
It continues working in the background but doesn't "move" anymore. For example the timeline of Poweramp stops.
I think that this behavior is normal but is there any way to keep both apps working?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Huawei, Camera app blocked for safety reasons??

Hi there. Please, could you guys help me with my camera app trouble? I've got Huawei Mate 9 Pro with latest updated Android 9 (EMUI 9.1, details below) and I use original Huawei camera app. I like this phone and everything worked just fine, till now... Two weeks ago I tried tu use my camera app and I couldn't. I didn't install any new 3rd party app lately. When I press the camera app button camera starts with black screen and error message "Camera Error - camera was disabled because of safety reasons" and then it shutdowns. I also get error messages in all other apps that use camera - Whatsapp says "Unable to start camera, restart your phone", Messenger says "We're sorry, camera doesn't work. It may be necessary to close other apps that are using camera", and so on... Like I said - I didn't install any other app lately, so everything is like it was.
What's interesting - I tried to run my phone in Repair mode and there camera app works fine, everything is ok. But when I switch to my account and phone profile it doesn't work.
I tried to stop camera app, clear the cache and data. Tried to wipe phone cache and reset apps permissions. I checked all camera app permissions - everything is ok. I called the Huawei consumer help center and they didn't know how to help me, just said I need to run factory reset. So, frustrated, I made a factory reset with backup. After reset and restoring backup of all apps and data, and security update of phone - the camera app worked again! I could make pictures and movies... for one day. After night I tried to run camera app again, and there's the error again. Now I'm helpless... Please, help me. What could be the reason of this error?
My guess is that some other app uses camera app or it was disabled (locked / banned) by Google Account or something? Why? Could it be blocked for "safety reasons" because of some specific photo?
Huawei Mate 9 Pro
Android 9
EMUI 9.1
Compilation 9.1.0.254(C432E7R1P6patch03)
Camera app version 9.1.0.333
Up. Anyone could help me? Problem still exists...
Did you manage to find a solution ?
edit : found out what was causing mine, sensors were set to off in an app, forgot to turn back on. works agein

[Help] Whatsapp videopreview black screen with audio

Hello everyone,
I have a Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) with Kernel 3.18.91. and Android 8.0. The phone was rooted just recently with the latest version of magisk.
I am not quite the expert, but I will try my best to describe the issue.
Basically after I rooted this phone, I started noticing that I could no longer play back videos in Whatsapp before I send them (the preview window where you can edit it before sending it).
All it does now is play back the audio and show a black screen. It doesn't crash or anything, the content of the video is just not being played except the audio.
Video playback is completely fine in the stock gallery app and everywhere else.
I already reinstalled Whatsapp and restarted my Phone
I have the following modules for magisk installed:
Busybox 1.31.1
debloater 17.3.3
Viper4Android FX 2.7.1
Samsung 4K60 Camera Mod 7.6.86
I also removed some of the bloating software with the terminal, but upon noticing this issue I decided to revert some of the changes. I do not know if this issue persisted beforehand. I was thinking that I might have deleted something here that was important for its functionality, but then the stock player wouldnt work either right?
I would rather not do a factory reset to fix this, if possible. However, if there is no other possibilty is there a way to backup all my modules and settings?
Here is what I tried:
reinstall Whatsapp multiple times
restart the phone
revert some of the changes in the debloater terminal
deactivate HW overlay
My guess is that I deleted something in the terminal that was important, is there a way to know for sure?
I hope someone can give me some hints as to what this problem is about. I will make sure to add screenshots of the list EDIT: need 10 posts to send links so I will just do it manually.
list of removed apps:
Basic Daydreams
Skype
tuiService
VoiceAssistant
upsmtheme
gearmanagerstub
samsung galaxy friends
language packs
galaxy essential widgets
Gear VR Service
S voice
Samsung gear, account, billing, cloud
EDIT 2: I found a temporary fix by enabling force GPU rendering in the system settings, I double checked by enabling the refresh indicator and previewing a video. Once I disable this option, video preview no longer works again. Question now is, if there is a way for me to exclusively enable this for whatsapp to save battery life
Just switch rendering by gpu in develop opp
Manny thanks buddy its works
Tomas
How to Enable Force GPU Rendering:
First of all "THANKYOU" for the solution of error. May GOD Bless You :angel:
1. Go to Settings and scroll all the way down to the bottom.
2. If you don't see the option, tap on About phone (About device) and look for an entry called Build Number.
3. Tap on Build number 7 times until you get a message saying “You are now a developer“.
4. Find Force GPU Rendering option and enable it.
Request for prayers.

same issue here with my Galaxy S7 EDGE in whatsapp i factory reseted reinstalled whatsapp but still same issue any help?
Having the same issue here with my s7 edge too i haven't rooted or done anything to it. Its a tmobile version.. Before it was blank screen with sound.. Noe there is no sound at all.. Any solution please
Seems to be a general bug for some devices...
Force GPU rendering and clearing my cache didn't fix it for me, however, I was able to get around the black screen by hitting the "Add files" icon, and immediately hitting "OK" without adding any additional files. Video preview renders fine after doing this each and every time. It's a hassle but it works for me. Hope this helps someone.
In case this is an entirely different bug, the file's audio still plays for me when I tap the black screen on my Google Pixel 3.
Thank you so much i have been dealing with this in my samsung s7 too for a long time and i fixed it with an old version of whatsapp, until today that i couldn´t use it anymore because it was too old. This is the first site that i have seen a real solution to this problem. Thanks againn!!
It worked
I enable developer and force gpu rendering and I can now preview videos before uploading on whatsapp. I've been having this issue from the time I got my phone and now it works fine thanks guys
