Dear XDA peeps,
I have a small problem with my Legend. When I check the photos in my gallery it saves them (sometimes) twice. I noticed that this only happens with photos I posted on Twitter using the Twitter for Android app (with Twitpic as photo sharing service).
When I look at the details of the photo it says with the original photo (named "IMAG****" (* being digits)) that it is saved in "/mnt/sdcard/DCIM/100MEDIA" and the duplicate (named with random digits) is saved in "/mnt/sdcard/DCIM/Camera". Also the size of the duplicate is smaller than the original.
Any ideas how I can shut this off? I looked in the settings everywhere and coulnd't find a solution. With over 400 photos now, this gets annoying and it just fills my SD card with unnecessary doubles.
I have a Legend running the official 2.2 update, no ROMs, unrooted.
Thanks ;-)
Josh
I recently reset my phone and re added all my photos from my computer back into my Camera folder, the issue is that on my phone the picture order in which the pictures were taken are all messed up i have year old photos as my most recent and my recent photos scattered all over, Im using Cloudy 2..2 i tried to sort by dates on 2 different gallery apps but it did not help has anyone come across the problem before or knows of an fix?
Hello,
I have a problem with synchronize photos in Samsung Gallery and Google Photos. Have official Android 10 (made factory reset after update).
If I shot some photo, it's in Samsung Gallery, after some seconds it appears in Google Photos. It's ok. But if I delete some photo/video from Google Photos app, it appears back from trash after some seconds and photo/video is still in Samsung Gallery.
I tried to clear cache of Google Photos and stock Gallery, didn't help it.
In android 9 if I deleted photo from Google Photos, it automatically deleted from Samsung Gallery too.
Any fix please? Any person with the same problem?

I have the same issue, deleted photos from Google Photos 3 times before they succeeded to finally go.
I'm using Files by Google now to delete anything I definitely want gone.
This is what I get after deleting from Google Photos then going to Gallery.
Tried Files by Google. If I delete photo in Google Photos, I see it's not in Files. But it still shows in gallery. There is corrupted thumbnail.
Hope it will be fixed soon.
Anybody with this problem too?
Same problem for me
I have the same problem on my Galaxy S10 after upgrading to Android 10.
I noticed a difference between when photos are stored on the local storage versus stored on an SD card. When the photo was originally stored on an SD card when I deleted from Google photos it wasn't deleted on the SD card, and simply reappears in Google photos few seconds later.
However when the photo was originally stalled on the phone's local storage when I deleted it from Google photos it was partially deleted from my phone meaning I still saw it is a thumbnail in my gallery app but when clicking it I got the annoying exclamation mark.
So the problem appears to be in the delete interface between Google photos app and the Samsung storage / SD card on Android 10.
HELP US GOOGLE!!!
I have 8 wallpaper backgrounds which are on my sd card.
I have deleted them at least a dozen times in Google Photos and Samsung Gallery and emptied the bin. But they keep respawning like a friggen COD player.
I confirm this bug on S10e. Please do report both to Samsung (in Samsung Members app) and Google (Google Photo App) to raise awareness.
In Samsung Gallery I somehow managed to get a side bar down the left showing album's and have no idea how i did it or how to remove it
I have no clue how to undo the album's down the left

Another Google Photos Bug.
Just said i could free up 234mb deleting photos from the device as they are backed up to Google Storage. However when i selected it, it then said only 6.11mb were freed.
Just received Jan update for my S10+. There is still problem with deleting photos..
Installed update of Google Photos now.
Seems deleting photos work fine (photos not appear again).
In Samsung gallery are still thumbnails of deleted photos.
Hi all,
today I moved all my photos/videos back to internal storage. Changed default storage in camera to internal storage.
Tried to make some photos, then deleted in Google Photos.
There are thumbs in Samsung Gallery. After some seconds/minutes, I open photo in gallery and same result, only exclamation mark.
So I think there is no problem with SD card permissions, there is a problem with google photos app. Received about 3 updates from the date I created this topic, still same result.
scan gone
I have the same problem on my s10+. also the scan feature in camera is no longer there. I used that alot. scan in documents 1 2 3 . now gone?? anyone else?
i'm unlocked on verizon
wondering if i should just go back to android 9.
would rather not start messing with the phone like i use to.. stock was nice.
Today received new update of Google Pgotos. Deleting photos work percet finally.
So everything works fine again.
I got the solution, I just clear data of my google photo app and also the gallary app!! And opened it again!! And it worked like a charm!!
I am having my Moto G5 Plus running on android 10 Havoc OS 3.0 with an Google camera apk Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_BF.
Whenever i click photos with the portrait mode in Gcam app the photos were shown in gallery after their processing is completed, but after some time all of the photos are automatically gone. I have tried to find these photos everywhere in the phone and SD cards memory but, i haven't found it anywhere. This has happened 3-4 times with me and i have lost many important photos.
Can anyone suggest me anything to do, can anyone provide me the solution for this problem.
I have a question regarding gcam
Is there a bug or error that causes pictures taken to be deleted randomly?
Today I took a lot of pictures and for each one taken I viewed in Google photos immediately after being shot . When I returned home , I found that alot of the pictures suddenly disappeared. Let's say around 20 pictures. Tried looking in trash and restarting the phone but to no avail .
Is this a problem in gcam itself?
