Solving the missing thumbnails after W10 update in whatsapp - Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.

Hi,
When I updated from WP 8.1 to W10 mobile, I noticed that the thumbnails of pictures did not show up in Whatsapp.
All the pictures I've taken after the update do have the thumbnails showing correctly, all the pictures from before have the grey thumbnail...
I did search trough the forums on 'pictures' and 'photos' but I could not find something relative to this problem.
If there is a thread handling this allready I'm sorry to put it double.
would be nice to find a solution.
Thx!

[HELP] Photos and Videos Thingy

Hi Guys
I got 2 problems related to the Album.
1. My photos appear extremly blurry on the main screen (the part where you flick through them). It's not a huge deal, but I wouldnt mind some focus.
2. When I make my way to a video album the videos are only displayed as windows media icons. No text and no thumbnail video preview. As a result I have to guess which one of the 50 videos is the one I want to show a friend.
Please help me.
Unbelievable
I just can't believe absolutely no-one has a solution, or some advice at the least.
If I can't get help here, I am doomed.
I thought this forum was over-run by brainiacs.
Guess not.

Hey!
To be honest....it's not a solution I can offer you...because I think everybody has the same issue with the blurry pictures and no preview video, but I think I can explain why....The main reason I guess it's blurry, is because it will take too much time for the device to pre-load the images on the sceen ie...especially if you have many high resolution pictures, it takes forever to load for every picture...the same with the music...that can also takes some time to load when you slide to the music tab.....
for the video the same reason I guess..
Please anybody...correct me if i'm wrong....
BTW...If you see the amount of views for this topic, you'll see that a lot of people see your problem, but don't have a solution for it....so please newby...don't complain allright??? we all try to help each other......
I had the same problem very blurry photos. But I solved it on mine.
Copy the original photos onto your diamond into the internal storage. I put mine in my pictures for while I did this.
Then on the diamond go onto your people tab and on each of your favourite people click on the menu bottom (bottom left).
Select change picture.
Then select the photo from the location you copied them too earlier..
That's it.
Do that for each of your favourite people.
It seems outlook contacts get saved with much lower resolution photo's but if you add the photo's on the phone it's a much higher res.

BTW I deleted the folder I'd copied into internal storage once i'd completed this and the photo's all stayed so there's no need to have the copied photo's permanently on the phone

That's a good answer nice man! I knew the problem was also on the Favorites Contacts tab, where the photo's were blurry as well, but I didn't know you could also fix it on the Photo/Video Tab...!
Nice tip!
me confused
Capt_Carl, I think you are confusing "blurry pictures in Photo & Video Tab" (my problem) with "blurry contact pictures in the Favorite People Tab" (solved this a while ago).
Am I just misunderstanding Capt_Carl.
What do you think Pietje_1985?

Yes....to be honest...i'm confused as well.. because of the fact that I knew there was a problem with the Favorite People tab and the pictures, but for the Photo/Video tab, I still think you can't solve that problem....... I thought Capt_Carl had the answer, but I think not after I read your post MaD-CoW
Ne ways...I hope maybe somebody else is familiar with the problems and somebody has got a solution to it.....
Cheers

Has anyone solved the blurry photos in the photo & video tab?
I have the same problem. 700 views and still no luck. I'll wait.
I'll join in the wait as well.
Update?
Maybe an update to the new official ROM 2.03 could help?
With the 2.03 ROM the problem started for me. On 1.93 it was fine.
Make the pictures 240x320

Change the view sort order for pictures?

hi,
a small but very annoying issue: I copied several folders with pictures into the sd card, but when viewing them through the built in picture viewer the photos are sorted in reverse chronological order: it always starts with the newest pictures and ends with the oldest, whereas I want it to display oldest first. having it in reverse order makes absolutely no sense for showing a slideshow etc, but I couldn't find any option to change that.
anyone have any ideas?
Perfect
No , but this is a very good question ?
Same here.
Any suggestions?
Agreed, anyone help?
already discussed last week. Do a search

[Q] Duplicate Album Title

Hi All,
I've got an interesting problem and I haven't found any hints elsewhere on this site or the interwebs. I have an HTC HD2 and I used the registry mod to enable GPS photos. Latest English ROM and no major mods other than Cookie's Home Tabs (which is awesome). I can take GPS pictures, show them on the map on the phone and upload them to Facebook.
The issue is, I can't find the GPS pictures anywhere on the storage device. All my photos go to /Storage Card/DCIM/Media100, but there are no GPS photos in there.
When I look at my Photo Albums on the native photo viewer, I have two Albums both named Media100. In one of these albums I have all my regular images, the same that show up in the folder listed above. In the other folder, I have all my GPS photos which I can handily view in the album (so I know they're still here somewhere).
If I search the storage card while on ActiveSync, I can find all the GPS photos that I'm searching for, but I can't access them to copy them onto my laptop.
This is a perplexing problem. It looks like somehow I have a memory naming issue and I don't know how to sort it out and I don't want to lose all my pictures. My last resort will be to go through and select each one and email it to myself, but that will take some time.
Any ideas out there?

[Q] Double photos in Gallery on my Legend

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 ;-)

Oneplus 8 Pro Gallery slow showing folders and pictures

Hi all, did a search and unable to find anything. Was wondering if anyone else experienced slow loading of folders and pictures when opening the Gallery
Hi there,
I have the same problem here too. I'm using OnePlus 8 Pro 12 gb ram model even though these much ram it opens and loads folders very slowly and it tries to search for whole gallery everytime I open it. I installed google's gallery application. You can search it by Gallery Go. It's just fast like how an Gallery application should be. Also please give your feedback or report it because from what I heard they're pretty keen on fixing bugs.
