[Q] WhatsApp problem!! - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys - this problem is driving me up the wall.
I've tried for hours to fix it, but can't find a solution.
When in WhatsApp, when I click the paperclip to attach, then Gallery, it takes me to the "WhatsApp gallery" thing which has all my photos etc. in it. Using the 3 dot menu I can then also choose to go to HTC Gallery or Google Photos instead. That's all fine.
However, when I select an image in the "WhatsApp gallery" and hit the send button, it WILL NOT send no matter what I do. It just returns to that "WhatsApp gallery" home screen with all the folders.
The ridiculous thing is if, by using the 3 dot button and selecting one, I go to either HTC Gallery or Google Photos, I can send anything just fine.
It is simply this stupid intermediate screen that doesn't work!!!!
What is it? And how can I fix it / get rid of it / set default to HTC Gallery?
I've tried clearing data for Gallery & WhatsApp, uninstalling WhatsApp, installing WhatsApp+, moving DCIM folder contents around - you name it, I've tried it to the best of my knowledge.
Please someone tell me what the problem is here, because although it's a very small thing, I use it daily and it's driving me mad!!
Thanks

[Q] custom ringtone and photos problem ?

Hi all,
I have my brand new IS for a while. I had no problem with setting a custom ringtone or photos taken by cam. but a while ago (im not sure when or why) it starts to behave weird. the device doesn't see my music files anymore, i can not choose any custom ringtone. After running Music app, it says "No Music Found" but i can see the file is there( via Astro File Manager etc.).
Same thing happened for photos, too. after taking photos, i can't see them with Gallery app but i see they are in sdcard/DCIM/100MEDIA as usual?
Hope i could tell the problem, any help appreciated..
The apps seem very very bad at refreshing new data off the sdcard. I find unmounting/mounting does the trick.

Thanks for the repy but it doesn't work. Neither Unmount > Mount nor Disable Fast Boot>Unmount>Reboot . I can not see previous photos taken with phone even by the quick button at camera screen.
I can change ringtone by an external app like "Android Movie or Zedge etc." But after restarting the device, it selects default one that shipped with the phone and ignore my custom ringtones.. really weird..
Is a common problem in stock. I thought that making remounting the SD card and afterwards make a photo and than go to gallery should start the reindex. Than start your HTC music app. Should have everything in it by then.
Note: reindexing can take a little while.

Not working..
What i did: Unmount > Mount SDCard. Take a photo > Go to gallery. After a quick refreshing process, there's only latest photo. After a reboot, latest photo is gone, too. Yet no tracks in Music
Just a wild guess, maybe your sdcard is corrupted? FAT32 is very easy to get into such problem. Perhaps you can do a scandisk from a PC.

Gallery issues after updating to 4.3

hi all
i've formatted my completely stock HTC ONE after upgrading to 4.3 and i found 2 issues:
1. when i transferred my pictures and videos from laptop to the phone all photos and videos were showing the same date of transfer and when i view them in gallery the videos appear all one after another , not like how i took them...few photos, one video and one zoe...etc. Its like showing all photos and when scrolling down all videos...
is there a way to fix this? i have a lot of photos from my travel and i would like to keep them in the correct order.
2. my apps where automatically re installed cz i backed everything up on my google account ( an option in the phone ) so i found some of the apps have those old three dots in the lower side of the screen for the settings, the ones cancelled by the 4.2.2 upgrade. anybody knows how i got those back??? shall uninstall and re install again?
any help is appreciated
Thank you
Jamel

[Q] HTC Sense Contacts App - Pictures loading slow

Hi there,
i am a big fan of HTC sense in general but one thing that prevents me from using htc sense contacts app is the slow loading time of contacts pictures.
If you scroll down the contacts list fast you will see a black default picture for each contact though there is a picture assigned. it just takes about 1 sec to load the custom pictures assigned to each contact.
my question: is it possible to change the cache settings for contacts app so all contacts pictures are loaded at startup when using this app?
there are several other contacts app (like EX Dialer) which do it better but i would like to use almost every app of HTC Sense because it is a persistent ecosystem with almost same look and feel for each app.
(i hope this was not too complicated)
Anyone got an idea?
not a single idea? common people...this is XDA developers forum....means you are the best of the best of the best
I'd try to delete the whole contact storage and re-sync again.
What ROM you are on? I am not experiencing this issue on IsertCoin 2.7.0, but if I remember correctly I had it in the past while on 4.3 Sense 5

top bar (menu) hides (moves up) when soft keyboard comes up, on any message app

Hello, I have ViperOne 6.2.1 (now 7.0.1) Android 4.4.2 (now 4.4.3) on HTC M7. My problem begun a few weeks ago, “maybe” when i installed f*** facebook messenger. My messaging applications were working ok, but for some reason now when I select to input text and the keyboard appears, the screen gets up and it crops the title bar say in Whatsapp, native messages app, viber, facebook messenger, etc. This does not happens in Notes app for example or ebay app when i search for something, etc. I have installed A.I type keyboard. I already tried to get uninstalled that A.I type keyboard and also uninstalling facebook messenger (the one i feel is guilty of this issue) but the issue stays. I know a little bit of programming and i guess some app changed a parameter in a config xml that messaging apps bases it screen layout, etc. If i am correct about this, which is that XML file and which parameters I need to change (auto resize, etc). I tried to search in ES File Explorer but i dont know where can it be that file…Hope you can help me with this problem, i also have screen captures if you need them.
I opened a ticket in venomroms.com and they only suggested to update to 7.0.1 so i did it. When I updated the Venom rom the problem got away but 3 weeks later the problem came back, now i dont want to reinstall the rom and spend 4 hours configuring every app again, knowing that in a few weeks the problem will come back.
I tried to google this, but only appears developer help pages on stackoverflow.com that tells to modify parameters on xml files of project but never the defautl action on android system when the keyboard comes up
Hope someone can help me
Thanks, Fernando

[Q] Album constantly crashing

Hi everyone,
First post here. I did a search for this problem but couldnt find anything...
Purchased this phone a couple of weeks ago. So far pretty good, battery life is great but one problem my handset has is that the Album constantly crashes. Every single time I open the album, within 5 seconds it will give the error message, "Unfortunately, Album has stopped". I've restarted the phone, installed all the updates and its getting very frustrating now. I cant even keep the album open long enough to send a picture via whatsapp. I've tried installing QuickPic but for some reason it hasnt 'transferred' all the media that I have and it seems most programs use Album by default.
I've attached a screenshot of the problem (which I somehow managed to upload before the 5 second mark and error came up again).
If anyone can suggest the solution to this I'd appreciate it, thanks.

Thanks for the reply. It says 'All this app's data will be deleted permanently. This includes all files, settings, accounts, databases etc'. Does this mean I will lose all my pictures/videos?
Also there are two 'clear data' options, one for storage and one for cache. Were you referring to one in particular, or both?
Thanks again.
Clear data and clear cache
From here
And no. You will lose no photos or videos which are on your internal storage/sdcard.
Thanks for the suggestion. I did lose a few pictures, but not sure where exactly they were stored.
The crashes stopped for a few hours but has since returned.
