Hey guys,
I got on my phone yesterday and noticed that when i slide to the gallery tab nothing appears, the soft keys stay the same as the tab i was previously on and dont work, none of my pics/vids appear, but the buttons to launch the cam and vid cam are still there.
As well as this, when i go to set an alarm through sense it wont let me, i go to change the time of the alarm and its just a blank white screen, which means i have to go and change them through windows, which is annoying.
Has anyone else had these problems and/or know how to fix them?
Cheers,
Mark
I just updated from rooted stock MDL to rooted stock MF9 this week. Everything is running great. But I noticed one difference in the stock Gallery app I'm not happy about. In MDL, when I brought up the gallery app from the camera app (by touching the pictures in the upper left corner of the camera app), I would have a trash can in the title bar so I could do an immediate delete. Now I have what looks like the AllShare icon, the third one from the right:

The new button seems to do nothing. Gives me a list of devices that I can attach to, but only lists "device". Does anyone else see this behavior? And, more importantly, can someone tell me how to get the trash can/delete button back?

Yeah not sure why they did that either. You can hit settings button and delete to delete it. Or you can tap it to show the film strip at the bottom and then long press on the picture to get the delete icon, but only for that instance. In short, although I haven't look into it myself, there doesn't appear to be a quick way of adding the button so settings and delete is the way to go.
Yea I wish they would put the allshare in the settings instead of the trash button.
Delete button is there in landscape view.

If you press and hold a pic to select multiple pics its shows you the trash button at the top right corner

Yep, if you go straight to the stock Gallery app, it is there. But if you go it view the pictures while in the camera mode, as I described above, it does not show up. You have to go into the menu button routine to delete it. I'm not sure if that's actually the gallery app or not. I guess not since the behavior is slightly different.
So far, I've always loved the little "Star" you could activate, when you had a pic on your screen. It was the easiest, most effective one-touch-way to sort through way too many pictures you take, when getting excited about something lol.
I would star the best of them, then move them in an album and delete the rest.
I cannot find the star, nor can I find a way to filter "starred items" anymore. Yes, there is a "label" function, but that's not at all what I am looking for. I dont want to create a label and then having to go into the menu, select label, select which label etc...
Any idea/help? Is that feature just gone?
Can't you just go to the menu "Select" > put a check box on the ones you want to keep, move them to a new album and then delete the rest?

Obviously I can, but its not what I am asking.
Also, with your method, in that menue, the thumbnails are really small. If you took 10 pics of an moving object and want to see which one turned out best, you want to scroll through them in full size. The star was great, you set it, scroll on.
So nobody knows?
No need for the attitude
Thought about checking the play store for a different gallery app that has that option?
So finally got it back. There seems to be no solution to this as demonstrated in this thread... but I got my S7 back from repair, and there it is, that little star.
I thought that was a Android feature, but apparently it's a samsung one?
Every image has a little star that you can activate, and later you can filter starred items. Quickest, best and only way to go through 20 Pics of something, and bring it down to the 2 best ones for example.
Does anyone know how I can move pics from camera album to another album??
Example: When I take a pic of my truck, that pic automatically goes to the album named "camera", now I want to move that truck pic to my album named "truck".
Any idea how to do this?
I thought I had already posted this, but I can't find my post.
I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thank you!
First go into your camera album select the pictures you want to move hold and long press till it's checked and a little box will appear in the uppwrbledt corners of each pic tap that box to check the other pictures you want to move. Then in the upper right corner you should see 3 dots lined up straight tap that should see an option that says move to album then tap the album you want to move it too....or at the top you can create an album...hope this helps.

That worked like a charm thank you. Let me ask this, I have other albums of various topics such as "work", when following your steps to move a pic it doesn't give me the same option to move pics from 1 album to another. Your steps only allow me to move pics out of the camera album.
EDIT: I'm trying to move pics from an album named "download", it will not allow me to move items from this album. Works great when moving from any other album.
Hope that makes since!
Huh, that's strange should be the same steps. May have to use "my files" then my device or as card (depending where you have them) and search for them there move them in the same manner as before.
Strange you cant move them I did notice I have pictures in my camera album that I moved already (still there for some reason) and they won't let me move them but I move all my pictures in the way i said.

so nobody know what is the problem? maybe phone soft is not good or is just facebook app?!
I have the exact same problem. When using back button to exit facebook, wallpaper bounces for a sec, but when using home button that doesn't happen. I tried reinstalling facebook, but id didn't help. I had 2 S8+ software updates, and facebook app updates but problem persists.
If anyone knows how to fix this small annoying issue, you're welcome to help.
Best regards
ERMGH...is called live Wallpaper???
Same problem here. It's bad enough that when pressing back, you have to wait for the timeline to scroll all the way back to the top, before you can press back again to exit, then you have to watch the wallpaper quickly zoom in and out.
Funnily enough, my Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 rotates the screen after using Facebook in landscape mode, so it's definitely Facebook having some form of issue with Samsung phones.
Same problem
Must be a laggy animation

no is not live wallpaper is just when pressing back arrow to exit facebook, the background is like moving in and out really fast looks like half second lag something like that.
I had many facebook updates but still not fixed..hopefuly somebody can sort it out for us..i just pray to don`t be a bug in the phone or problem with the soft...
i see
did anyone else noticed that Facebook trends are now showing up in Bixby feed?
Happens to me as well, and I'm using Nova Launcher
same here on Nova launcher with Starfield live wallpaper. looks like the app is running in a different resolution and the wallpaper has to resize... maybe it's something to do with the way the app expands to the weird aspect ratio of the s8...
Any update regarding this problem? Here are the things I've tried - Cache Partition Wiped, Full Factory Reset, Tried All screen resolutions, Increased speed of exit animations. thru the developers menu. But the problem still remains. The screen bounces when you exit the facebook app by pressing the back button. It exits normally if you press the home button.
Another weird thing, if you clear the cache/data from app settings, the facebook app exits normally if you press the back button (when you're not logged on to fb). But, as soon as you login to facebook the problem reappears.
Samsung service centre reflashed the firmware of the phone but the problem is still there. They wont replace the device because the app is third party (albeit comes preinstalled).
Any help would be highly appreciated. It's starting to annoy me.
maybe somebody can report this straight to Samsung...I`ve done it but they say is about facebook to fix it.I report to facebook and they say can`t fix everybody`s problem but only major bugs.
so please everybody report the problem to facebook and to samsung and maybe they release an update
I have the same problem ..hope they will fix it
PS. To rezolve the problem go and set the animation to 0 in developer setings..this work for me..
this is called motion effect for wallpaper!
Never noticed this "problem" before. But I tested this out just now and it didn't happen. Then I thought maybe it's because my Facebook app icon is in a folder and not on the homescreen. So I tried moving it to the homescreen and it started happening to me too. Moved it back to the folder and nothing.
So... I guess this is a workaround for the people that are experiencing this issue.

So I am experiencing the same bugs. I have recorded the glitch on my S8+ and sent Samsung the YouTube link:
The told me to contact Facebook instead.
However, you can see what's actually happening with the video. When closing any app there is a zoom-out effect. Facebook however appears to be using a slide effect instead. When this is done the phone does the zoom-out anyway -- and that's the glitch.
There is still no solution for the annoying glitch. Does anyone else experience this issue?
My GS8+ received update AQG5 today, this appears to resolve the glitch :fingers-crossed:
