I've moved all my stuff over from iCloud to my Mate 20 pro and google photos. In the google photos app When doing this I for some reason manged to get the photos all messed up in order and it looks like it has all the videos first and then all the photos come at the end. With approx 10k photos/videos this is a complete mess and I can't find my photos anymore. I used the huawei app for transfering files from my iphone xs to the mate when I first booted this thing up.
If I go to the Gallery and select "albums" and then "all photos" it's looks like its sorted by last change date and that is when I imported the photos to the phone or the order it was imported with pictures first and then videos. If I view them in "photos" instead of "albums" like above then it's in correct order. I can sorta work around this in the builtin gallery but if I open the facebook app I can't select any album and then all the photos are displayed in wrong order so I can't find what I'm looking for. Snapchat is the same way and prolly other apps aswell so I would like to fix this at the root of the problem
i have the exact same issue here after moving all my content from my microSD. I even tried to update the exif information and set different dates but i can't manage to sort the photos in the proper order. i still have several ones that are displayed first despite having an older exif date .... this is only the case with the mate 20 pro, all ly samsung phones recognize the dates in the proper order.... i even tried several photos apps....
Good thing that I'm not alone at least. I found some apps that could change the last changed date of the pictures according to EXIF shotdate but it was paid and since I don't know if that's the problem I didn't go for it. Did you try to change last changed date to the same as exif shotdate to see if it sorted it properly then?

Click to collapse
Did you find a solution to this? Still a complete mess here but I haven't tried anymore. Not much info about this other than old threads :/
I've used a modded Sony Xperia Album app on all my phones, since I actually owned a Sony many years ago. Sorts by creation date, looks great and works perfectly

I have a Galaxy S II, running CM10 Nightly 19Sep Stock kernel, only thing changed is the ROM which I've been flashing for over a year without issue.
Noticed on Monday 22Oct that the phone was starting to lag at certain things and behave screwy, so downloaded latest nightly and did a complete backup. Did not flash.
Had a look in the gallery yesterday, and to my horror the earliest photo in there is from 21Oct, over 600 photos gone. Gallery used to show thumbs from all of the ebooks I have in there, those are gone as well and the photos from the individual ebook folders for covers are gone one by one.
Swiftkey deselected itself as an input option with no input from me. Swype is just gone.
External SD which I barely use will show as unmounted when connected via USB.
Going to go through forum tutorials to try and get those pictures back, but should I be worried about something else? Hardware? What could possibly be causing this?
Well at the very least this product deserves a thumbs up. It works.

Going to get most of the media back.
It's suggest a restocking.
You can take your sd out and check if not corrupted our something.
Hope you can still get your files.
You will get more support form the forum if you post in the one specific for your device

Android 4.3 Camera Security Bug - Samsung Galaxy Nexus upgraded from 4.2.2 to 4.3 via OTA.
Anyone who recently upgraded can try and replicate this issue.
After upgrade launch the camera, try to set as default settings as you can (not sure if this matters, but try turning off the camera flash).
Use the rear facing camera, press the shutter button as fast as you can, look in the gallery. You might find that photos you previously took and deleted have resurfaced.
Try the same thing with the front facing camera.
I was able to "recover" photos taken and deleted a couple weeks ago using this method. I'm guessing that something in the software can't keep up so it finds old photos and uses them for some reason. After a few rounds of doing this, the problem went away, so maybe it cleared out some kind of cache or used up whatever leftover deleted photos there were.
Anyone else able to replicate?
Whole photos or just the thumbnail? I've had a similar thing on an archos tablet where the thumbnail is an old, deleted photo, but when you select it to display full size, it's the one that was just taken.

It was the whole photo viewed in the gallery. Swipe left from the camera app and the previously deleted photos were viewable. Tap once, they fill the screen, pinch to zoom they enlarge. I didn't try downloading them to my computer through USB. The problem went away after a few rounds of doing this and deleting all available photos, it was quite disconcerting in terms of privacy. The front camera and rear camera seemed to have their own separate caches of deleted photos as the issue happened with each independently. I ended up doing a factory reset which hopefully will be good enough. Nothing special about my device, Galaxy Nexus GSM, purchased from the play store, always upgraded through OTA, never unlocked, never custom ROMs, never rooted, etc...
Hey, iam searching for a replacement for quickpic. Since it has been sold to some strange company, there are no updates and bugs are more and more present with newer Android versions.
So anyone got a replacement? I tried some galleries, but none of them were as good as quick pic. I just want a clean simple way to browse my folders and no time line bull**** or something like that
Check out Piktures, very cool gallery app IMO.
I have some experience with Samsung phones, mainly S2, Note 4 and J5 pro and I have never face any issue like this with the new S9+
Here is the issue:
I have gotten this phone a few days right after it launched in my country (Malaysia), everything at first was working wonderfully like how it should be, until about a week ago, I realised some of my photos and videos a disappearing by themselves! Upon checking the files, I was guessing it happened for almost a month now. Those disappeared photos are the ones that were taken using the default camera app while the survived ones were taken with third party app
I have been trying to recover those lost photos and I have tried all solution that I can find on Google but non of it solve the problem. At last, I resort to engaged Samsung support and they suggest me to monitor the phone in safe mode just to see if it was caused by third party app.
Wonder if any user faces the same problem? I read that some of their older models have this problems too but it doesn't seemed to be solved. It would be wonderful if anyone can tell me ways to stop it from happening or if you have the same encounter, how do you solve it?
Never happend to me. Are you sure you didn't use Google Photos' "Free memory"-funcion?
I recently went to a complete stock state on my Mate 10 Pro using BLA-L29 C432 150 image. Everything has been working smoothly for a couple of days. I took a couple of pictures in the morning but early in the afternoon I couldn't anymore. I can take a shot and it shows as a thumbnail in the camera app but when opening it in galley shows a greyed picture with a "Loading in progress" text across it.
I tried all kind of things including clearing various caches and renaming the DCIM directory but that didn't work. It should be noted that taking a video works just fine.
Does anyone have a trick I could try to get the camera back?
