Mate 10 Gallery Refresh Issue - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

Hi Guys,
In my Mate 10, when i take a new photo using camera, it does not appear immediately in the 'Photos' section of the Gallery. It is not refreshed immediately or even after a long time. Although it appears at some point in there, but it seems it is random (it can take a long time which is annoying). However, the taken image appears immediately in the Albums section of the Gallery app.
Anybody noticing the same thing on their devices? Any solution?
My build number is ALP-L29 8.0.0.119(C636).
Regards

Are photos saved to SD card or internal storage

It is on sd card

Then try internal storage. If that fixes things then maybe your sd card is not fast enough.

I don't agree since the picture appears immediately in the Album section of the Gallery app. It is the Photos section that has issues in refreshing. I am pretty sure that it is a software bug.

Just tested. Works fine for me on my Mate 10. No bug.

I just did a factory reset and again the same buggy Gallery app! Come on Huawei! You charge a lot for your new phones.
I then installed QuickPic gallery and it works perfectly.

I found where the bug is! If i put the auto launch apps to manual, my problem is solved. I think there is a problem with this feature of EMUI.

[Q] My photos don't show up in the camara app

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

Why is Gallery so SLOW!!??

I first saw this on my wife's S3 and now I have the same thing on my Note 2. Whenever I go into the Gallery app, it is so extremely slow. I thought it was building indexes or something, but my Thunderbolt wasn't this slow. I have searched around and can't find anything.
I do have images on an extSD card, but even before I put the card in the pics I took on camera were slow to come up. I can use other apps like quic pic but I don't think S-pen works with other apps.
Anyone else seen this?
EDIT: It appears the S-Pen works fine in quic pic. I was able to select and copy to clipboard just fine. I would still like to know why Gallery is so slow though.
hmm I'd call mine quite fast. I have 42 local pictures already and it that album and facebook ones instantly and when I click local, the pictures all pop right up instantly. Have you noticed reads/writes from your memory being slow with anything else?

My phone overall is very fast. It is just the gallery. The fact that I saw it on my wife's S3 made me wonder. I even moved her pics off of her extSD card and onto her internal memory. Then I reformatted her card. I also reformatted my card in the phone before putting the pics back on it. Quic Pic works like a champ, so I believe it has to be Gallery.
No issues here with opening gallery, pics taken from phone or photos on memory card. Also my s3 was fast.
Yep, mine too. I have a lot on my card, when i open the gallery it shows a bunch of gray squares that should be the folder names.it takes forever to show thumbnails for some reason. Never had this on my S3
I have 6000+ pictures separated into 50+ albums all stored on my 64gb xdhc and its fast. for an album of more than 600 pics, the gray boxes turn to thumbnails quick enough to keep up with my scrolling.
I'm in the same boat as the OP.... It takes quite a long time to load up my pictures in my gallery. Quite annoying...
use a ultra high speed sd card an it will help with gallery speed. i have a 64gb sandisk that reads 50mb/s...

I have had the same problem since owning the S3 and now the GN2. I have about 6gb of photos on my internal storage and a couple gb on my sd card.
I have been able to figure out that it's something with my home network. Try to turn off Wifi and then open Gallery on all 3 of my Sammy phones the gallery is instantly fast.
PS Someone also told me to disable Tag Buddy and Face Tag as well.
Motorola is similar yo this except that the moto gallery pinch room is choppy. Quick pic fixes. Its something about the ui that makes it drag along on the gallery. Hopefully they address it because my old gs2 didn't really have that issue.
Same issues with gallery sometimes
I've noticed some slowdown on the gallery but mostly when other apps try to access it.
Like if i try to look at the gallery from picsay or something.
I notice the camera folder shows up right away but it hangs on the other folders.
I have it showing all my facebook photos too. Don't know if that has anything to do with it.
And I have noticed its quite hit or miss. Sometimes its instant sometimes it hangs.
It is quite weird when the phone is so fast.
I would love to know what is causing it.

If it's looking for facebook albums, it could be data connection that's affecting the speed.

Is there any way of removing sync from Facebook

I haven't found a way. I went into facebook sync and unchecked "sync gallery" and changed the gallery sync interval to never, then went and cleared all data from the gallery but it went through and downloaded them all over again.
Did you try changing the sd speed? I switched from the default 128k to 2048 and my galleries load as fast as I can scroll

I too have this issue. It would be worth trying what LordRalh3 mentions. Dont know if this is going to help. I had several pictures on internal memory until I remembered to install my external 32gb card, it is slow both ways.
I had the same issue, and found that gallery was caching a ton of data. Over 2 gigs the first day! I cleared it, and again the next day it began caching data again. I have resorted to disabling the app, and I am in the process of wiping to see if that helps. I will let you know what happens.
Stock gallery is bull****. Better is quickpic i use it nearly 1 year
Wiping did not help. Gallery still as slow as molasses. I will report back on cached data. How would I go about changing the sd speed?
I just changed the sd speed to 2048. There was no difference. This is really annoying. I turned off syncing with picasa, facebook, google +. Im not sure what else could cause such a slow down.

Gallery app problem

Goodmorning
My girlfrien has an Honor 9 with firmware B153, everything stock.
After a while, and about 4000 photo taken, the gallery has become really sluggish and almost unusable.
when i take a new photo it's need around 4/5 second to show the preview. also deleting a photo cause the app freeze for several seconds.
i have already tried to delete cache for both camera and gallery apps, and delete the thumbnails folder into DICIM, but with no results
Anybody had esperienced the same issue?
Thanks

yes that will certainly solve the issue, i will do it.
I was only curious if there are other workaround, since it seems quite a big limit for the stock gallery app

I do not think it's a storage capacity problem but rather a memory problem.
All photos are loading.
Is she using a SD card of a slower type?

Stock Camera app lags for 10 seconds when I'm switching to Video

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...

Storage sorting or google photos problem with mi a3

Hello everyone, ever since upgrading to android 10 im having a weird issue with pictures in my phone.
1. im using an chatting app called viber, for some reason i cant share screenshots within the apps photo share icon, some time before my screenshots didnt even show up there, i could find them manually but trying to send it gives "file not found" , now i can see them without searching for them, but still cant share them.
2. other thing is some pictures just randomly disappear from my google photos app, usually edited screenshots, after some time they are just gone.
3. downloading pictures from chat in one of the games i play "rise of kingdoms" also disappear after some time, those pictures are stored in "Pictures" folder created after the first download, but that folder/album later on is just gone from my photos app, those are also in annoying jpg!large format that i cant even open from file manager app until i remove !large extension.
btw all the things mentioned above , photos are not removed, they are still in my phone i can find them all in my file manager but i cant see them in google photos app, i also cant see them from any other chatting app when i want to share pictures. camera photos, photos downloaded with google chrome , seem to be fine and they never got removed from google photos so far.
have a feeling its something related to mi a3's storage managment cause i tried another gallery app and it doesnt show all my pictures as well, anyone having the same issues?
thanks.

I do have the same kinda issue with photos. For example, I want to share a pic while being in WhatsApp, Viber but it won't show me all the folders of the pics. I have to go to Gallery and share it from there.
