I updated to Nougat last night. Everything is working perfectly except for my gallery. None of my photos will show up, not even new ones. If i take one with the camera they show up for a few seconds then disappear. I have searched all morning and cannot find a fix for this. Has anyone else had this issue? I have tried wiping cache, deleting .nomedia files and re scanning, i have even tried a factory reset and still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The only time I have ever experienced something like that was when my SD card was failing. If you have an SD card in take the SD card out and see if that helps. I have heard that sometimes reformatting the SD card helps also. I seem to be having a different minor problem, my power button doesn't always wake up my phone. Sometimes when I push it you can hear the restart sound but the screen doesn't turn on, wait a little bit and it does. I have cleared the cache, and also reset the phone.. still seems to have that problem.

It's from APK Mirror, @Venom0642 posted the link https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71105438&postcount=263
Had the same issue a couple days ago. Still not resolved. Any luck with a fix? The suggestion above not working for me.
Thanks.

I raised this a while back on Modaco, so sorry for anyone seeing it again.
My Vario2 has a problem where it goes into a long (about 2min) lock-up when I try to access the phone app (where you change ringtones etc). Nothing else causes it to hang, just that. It makes not difference if I have a memory card in or not.
Last time I had this, I did a hard reset and it went away. Now it's back and I can't bear reinstalling all my apps again! restoring a backup last time also restored the problem, so I guess it's a software issue.
Is this a known problem for anyone else? Is there a fix?
Thx

so i just installed HTC's update that they now pulled. And just tried to launch the camera app and all it does is, black screen with the camera icon then it fades back to the home screen. anyone else have the same problem with the froyo update??
Nope... but glad I waited. Guess ill hold off until next week.
no problems with the camera. It's working fine for me.
I'd try restarting the phone once more. Right after I updated and booted into the system, I tried to make a phone call and everytime I clicked call it just went back to the dialer screen without any numbers input. Restarting fixed this. EDIT: However i just tried the camera and its not working just as you described. >_<
yeah... i just restarted the phone and that fixed it. YAY!!!!! SWEET! SWEET! FROYO GOODNESS!!!!!

Have you tried power cycling? I've had that issue once with 2.1 - power cycling solved it, hasn't happened again.
I had the same problem after installing Froyo 3.26 and I rebooted a few times to get it to work and have had no problem since.
power cycling hasn't helped me at all. I'm gonna try resetting back to stock w/o my saved apps/data and see how that goes. After that, I'm going to try and downgrade back to 1.47 ota (someone in another thread mentioned it was doable.)
Before you do that try to open the camcorder app and see if it opens my friend said it worked for him IDK if it was just a coincidence.
I updated and just noticed the camera does not work. I have tried power cycling with no success.

I tried camera app, camcorder app, as well as the shortcut that was on my home screen. No luck. Also, I believe I'm incorrect on downgrading being able to work but we'll see.

So, after numerous restarts, I turned airplane mode on so that I wouldn't receive anything while backing up and thus need to rebackup, and plugged my phone via usb to my computer. While the sdcard was mounted in ubuntu, I ran the camera app and it worked. I then dismounted the sdcard, unplugged the usb cable, waited for android to remount it, and tried again and its still working. I don't know if mounting the sdcard onto a computer fixed it but its worth a shot for anyone else having trouble.

I had this issue also with the camera not launching, it would go to a black screen for a second and then go back to the home screen. I was browsing an album of a friend's facebook pictures from their contact card and clicked the shutter icon in the bottom corner to launch my camera and that allowed the camera to work via the application launching now. Kind of strange, but I haven't seen any other issues yet.
I installed Swype Beta last night before I went to bed last night. When I went to bed last night I had over 8gigs free on the device. This morning when I woke it up, there is a warning at the bottom of the screen that says the device is "Low on space". When going into the settings and looking at the storage settings, it now says that I have 14.83mb of free space left. Any idea what could have caused this? I have uninstalled the Beta of Swype and that has not done anything. I have looked through all the installed apps and there is nothing showing in the list that is that large.
It is running stock at this point. I have gotten the update to push it to 141.07.
Any ideas what this might be? Any ideas on how I can fix this?
Thank you in advance for any input provided.
I believe this has cropped up for a couple of other people as well; the only solution I recall from the top of my head is to do a factory reset, which loses user data so back up what you need to.
One thread suggested checking your tablet for a lot of media files first.
We figured out, that this problem is caused by a really big tombstone. But we still don't know, what created this tombstone...
Edit: If your tablet is rooted, you can search for the file under root:/data/tombstones and just delete it ^^
Had the same issue.. could not install anymore programs on the SD card, reporting it was full. Itried everything. I ended up doing a factory reset. My unit is not rooted.

Hey guys,
HALP
Is there a good way to pinpoint exactly why my phone random reboots? So far I've already done a factory reset and it hasn't helped. Even with only installing basic apps (google apps, twitter/insta/snapchat/evernote)
Even with none of those apps installed, it would still reboot.
Tonight my phone was at 48%, I picked it up, sent a text message, put it down, picked it back up and it was on the Google splash screen rebooting.
I downloaded Catlog, will that help diagnose, and what should my settings be?
Thank you so much in advanced for any help yall can provide
PS, my phone has always been stock and never modded in any way.

Have you tried flashing the factory images, along with formatting the internal storage? Factory reset was a good idea, flashing the factory images is the next step. Do that and don't install any apps, if the problem remains then you're probably dealing with a hardware failure.

Is your case "accidentally" holding down the power button? This was my issue.
Boot the phone in safe mode and check if the phone still does a constant reboot... in case it does.. there might be some hW issue as you already got the factory reset part going...
SENT... isn't that enough
Thanks for all the responses. I ended up losing patience and sending it back to my phone insurance for testing/replacement. They were the last to take it apart for a screen repair so I'm hoping to pin any hardware issue on them and they'll replace it under the warranty of the insurance plan I purchased with them.
If they offer me a definitive diagnosis I'll update as well.
Cheers
Hey all,
Yesterday I reached for my phone as it was charging untouched next to me, and the screen said Android is updating, or whatever it says for example after the install of a new rom and the apps are all updated. Then once it was done all my data and settings were gone, like it factory reset randomly. I still have my pictures and downloads etc, but all sms and call logs, homescreen settings etc were gone and I was signed out of all my apps, like after a factory reset.
The past few weeks or maybe even months I was also having the issue of the phone randomly freezing up, necessitating a reboot, but then all would be well. This could happen when the phone was in my pocket, or even mid stream of a podcast for example. My phone is the Z force and I typically have a battery mod attached as well.
Anyone have any idea what could have happened? How to avoid it happening again? If there's any hope to recover my old data or settings?
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
Do you have an SDCard? Formatted as internal?

Yes, that's right. Things like my pictures and downloads are still there, but no data. My apps are there, but not my settings for example.

I had that on first reboot after the nougat update, and again after a couple of security updates. It happened to a few others and Motorola blamed the sdcard.
Try formatting after backing up.
My issue seemed to fix itself.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one, and that yours seems all good now. I think for now I'll cross my fingers and take your advice and format if it happens again. Thanks for the reply.
Happened to me today
Lost all my settings, Nova theme settings, sound settings, ringers, alerts. All my apps are still installed, but I have to log back into everything.
This sucks.
