Hello, I need help with something, I had a nexus 4 and before it a Galaxy Nexus, in those phones or maybe in Google Android Clean OS when I took pictures inside whatsapp the images didnt appear in the "camera captures" folder at the gallery, but since I had the HTC One and previously the HTC One S all images taken inside whatsapp appear on the camera captures and upload automatically to dropbox or htc share,
I have been searching for an answer to this and all that I could find was solving this issue but in iPhone...
If an of you could help me with this?, theres photos that I simply dont want to be shown in the gallery as "taken photos"
thanks.
Hi guys,
Using stock ROM and camera (.257) on the Z1. I have a weird issue with the Timeshift Burst feature:
As I understand it, it is supposed to take 30 images, then let me choose one to keep.
Instead, it takes 30 images, lets me choose one, and then keeps all 30 images in my gallery!
They all get uploaded to Dropbox and G+, and they all clutter my on-device gallery. How do I make it stop? I want just one image, not 30.
Thank you!
you can do this.
DCIM\XPERIA\TIMESHIFT, then delete extra files before uploading

Both Dropbox and G+ auto-upload... Having to manually delete files is really a workaround - is there no "sane" way to do this? I expected a setting I missed or something.
Discovered the same annoying issue today. Hope the will fix it or at least give an option...

It's not an issue, Sony made it like this so you can later change the picture you selected. after you take a picture in timeshift burst, select a picture, then if you go to the gallery you will see one image. there is 3 buttons in the bottom right corner, the middle one is to change the picture, if you click on it you will get back to the screen you chose the picture from (as if you just took the picture right now and it's telling you to choose the picture you want to keep in gallery).
Probably the issue you're having is that G+ uploads all the 60 (they're 60 pictures, not 30) and shows them in the gallery. if you can remove G+ pictures from gallery, You'll be good to go.

yea its pretty annoying. i havnt tried to figure a way around it yet but maybe you could use foldersync to watch the folder where the timeshifts are saved, and get it to move them to another location, one that G+ doesnt listen to.
tasker might be another one to use. pick the photo you want to keep and copy it to the dcim/camera folder, then have a shortcut (swipepad is a handy way to launch tasks without leaving the current app) to get tasker to delete everything inside the timeshift folder
Hi Guys,
I'm having a huge problem, coming from IOS is a huge change.
Android is so open! (in a good way) anyway on IOS whatsapp images/videos never show on the stock photo album...
Android is totally different it shows everything! not good when your nephew is able to get hold of the phone..and let's say there's some pics I don't want him to see which the mrs sent...
I've been through the .nomedia way of doing it which works when using QuickPic as the photo viewer which I'm happy with as my photo viewer now...But I really hate Sony's own version but it doesn't work with Sony Album app the pics are all viewable also I cannot UN-install the app also which makes it findable if your looking through all apps.
Surely there is a easy way around this? with how many people in the world with ANDROID & WHATSAPP...
Any help?
Thanks
EDIT 1: Seems if you press SHOW HIDDEN in QUICK PIC it shows all the pictures again!
EDIT 2: You can set a password to see the hidden files so that's sorted
Im having a problem WITH the gallery and is that when i receive a pic from let's say a whatapps group chat, it appears in the camera roll of the stock camera. Is there a walk around or fix to this?
Maybe change the gallery for another?
In the s7 this doesnt happens.
Thanks for the help
I'm facing the same issue, whole gallery is messed up. I have thousands of pictures neatly sorted in different folders and gallery mixes them all up together and shows them in date order, absolutely the last thing i want.
post a fix if you find one.
Bump
anyone having this problem?
not having this problem.
Are you guys using "Albums"?
pictures or events will go by date
albums will be by folder A-Z and in each photo it will be by date

No dont use it. But i use other apps and there photos either go into a folder download or its labelt with the apps name.
So it could be a problem with whatsapp downloading into the dcim folder.

Oh ok i think i get what your saying.
You go to gallery and its in WA alone with your camera folder download etc...
But when you open the camera app and scroll through the pictures. You see all your folders mix in by date?
VS only whata in the camera folder?

Exactly. in the s7 you will see only the pics taken not every pic by date
Yea i just tested that out.
I dont remember it doing that on the s7 edge.
It probably has to do with the new camera app.
If enough peopke submit it to samsung via online chat or calling then. They will end up fixing it.
Simply tell then its a Security risk.
I remember they updated the s7 edge. Befor you could doble tap to open camera. Take a picture then view the other pictures in the camera phot.
When they updated it it has a lock screen and wont let you view the other photos until you unlock the phone.

Is gallery part of Samsung software or is it part of Android?

gallery is android but the camera app is sumsung.
And the problem is the way they are talking to each other.
but both app start from the basic android code so its possible they coded the gallery different, but most of the time the gallery remands the same and the camera app is the only one that gets change.
I remember pull camera app from different phones long ago.
When you open gallery, it defaults to show all pics together, from all different folders, sorted by date. Now, inside gallery you can choose albums tab, that shows it properly in folders, but when camera access gallery, you dont get album option anymore and it's a mess. It's gallery issue, I don't like the way it works now, but I guess I would have to be rooted to install older version? And we don't have root yet, SUCKS.

Hi,
I have a problem with my pictures, when I take a picture, the picture I took is changed by a graphic image, and the picture is gone, see attachment. This started a week ago. I also cannot see any pictures in whatsapp, they are blur and when I click on the image it says that the picture is not saved in the media folder, I suspect I have a virus, but when I scan with
Doctor Norton, no virus is found!
Help!!!
