[Q] Photo issue after Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just rooted my Nexus 5 using Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit and it worked fine.
Only now after taking a picture the image is just a solid gray in the gallery.
Anyone experience this?

Found a solution, I enabled and disabled HDR and now the pictures are ok.
Only my previous pictures cannot be displayed anymore.

[Q] Weird wallpaper issue

Hi,
Device : Nexus 5 international version (LG-D821) 16 Gb.
System : Stock 4.4.2/KOT49H, unrooted, locked (updated from original 4.4 via OTA)
My problem is the following: I can't set the wallpaper using the regular way (tapping screen/wallpaper/select picture/picking any picture from any folder) and get a error message at the bottom (even before actually setting it) which says 'Can't load picture'.
I get this message on any picture (camera pictures, my own wallpaper folder, downloaded pictures, whatever) anywhere.
So, right now I'm forced to use the gallery app and the "use as wallpaper" function (and 100% of all the pictures I have work fine).
I'm not sure it's a 4.4.2 related issue, I can't remember if I changed the wallpaper using the very same way right after the OTA. What I do remember is it worked perfectly on 4.4.
So I wonder if it's a known 4.4.2 issue/bug.
It doesn't seem related to the files or folders themselves since it used to work on 4.4 and still work through the gallery.
Anyway, any help appreciated.
Thank you for reading

I thought that the "regular" way you describe in your first paragraph is in fact a function of the gallery app.

Are you able to set the stock wallpapers through the regular way or is that only related to you picking pictures that you have downloaded or copied to your phone?
It might be due to format, file size etc... If it is the latter.

I can pick stock wallpapers (have no idea where they are located btw) that way but no picture of any kind (except when running Gallery and 'using them as wallaper'). I haven't messed up with the folders or the files and it works fine anyway, again, from the Gallery app.

Upload one of the pictures you're trying to use as a wallpaper. I'll try to recreate this on my phone and see if I end up with the same issues.

Lost Photosphere

Hi guys,
I have an issue.
I took a sphere today on my nexus5 running gcamera on the lollipop preview.
It took all the segments just fine and started processing it, notification icon appeared with progress bar in notification tray.
At which point locked it and put it in my pocket
Later I looked at my phone to share it but its not there. Its not in the photos app on the phone or desktop.
Any suggestions? Could it be cached somewhere and have failed to process?
The location is almost an hour away plus a 20min walk in near perfect weather conditions.
I have not tried another yet, main objective is to find out if its cached somewhere and is recoverable. If that defo is not the case then I will try to repeat the fault by taking another.
thanks!
You can only see it from the camera app, not the gallery. Open the camera and swipe to its built in gallery.
If not there, then no idea.
Edit. Looks like I'm wrong. On L, looks like normal called can see fine. Guess its lost.
you wont see it in the gallery app(not as a photosphere), you will see it in the photos app though.
It's nowhere, not in photos app either
Same problem here!
I'm having the same problem on my Nexus 5 with official Android 5.0 build. No root. No nothing. All stock. I can take photospheres all day and, just like the OP, they disappear once finished rendering. I found the individual photos and panorama version of the spheres in buried in the phone's camera app cache. Unfortunately that doesn't help the situation. Has anyone found a solution?
edit: Panorama mode has the same results. It appears to take the photo without issue. Once it finishing rendering, it is nowhere to be found.
2016 and nouget still have same issue with nexus5x ! Photosphere gone after rendering

Default Gallery App

So, I've done some research into this and I'm struggling to get any results. I have noticed since installing 5.0 Lollipop, the default 'Gallery' app has disappeared and has instead been replaced with the 'Photos' app which comes built into Google+.
I've personally never found any use or need out of Google+ and always disable the app and the 'Photos' app.
Doing this however, now leaves me without a gallery.
I installed Cyanogen's gallery from the Play Store, but this is not automatically set to a default and so when I'm sharing or sending images, the gallery app to open images does not appear.
When I installed the APK for the KitKat gallery, it embodied itself into the 'Photos' app and when I tried to open it, it crashed because 'Photos' is disabled.
Any ideas?

I'm in the same boat as you. Loved the Gallery app and don't find the Photos app useful at all.
Which Gallery APK did you install? I installed the one from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/app-4-4-apps-hangouts-google-launcher-t2506344
It works, is in the menu prompts (when opening files), etc.
The only thing that doesn't work is the "edit" function since I'm guessing the links the to the built in photo editor are busted with the 5.0 update. So basically if I need to edit a photo I used Photos, but everything else I just use Gallery.

Download default Android 4.4 Gallery from here.
It works just fine in Android 5.0.

Is there a mod to see Google Photos in Gallery?

I'm coming from a One Plus X before getting a S7 Edge 935F.
Very happy about the hardware but the software is not as friendly as on the One Plus X.
My mine problem is that I can't see "Photos" (Google Photos) in the Gallery.
On my old device it was an album inside Gallery. Made it easy to share a pic by SMS, FB and IG.
Is there a way to get this back on to my device? A mod, a hack or simply a setting I can't seem to find.
Thanks for your help!
Install the gallery app from the one plus x? Seems like its an app feature that samsung doesn't have.

[Completed] My Phone has a 13megapixel but default camera can only run 8megapixel

Hello and good day everyone, these past few days my default camera app can capture up to 13megapixel and today, i just found out that it's stock in 8megapixel. But apparently Droid Info detected my phone having a 13 megapixrl camera resolution, i also download a camera app called camera 360 and it can also capture up to 13megapixel. I also tried to clear data and restore my camera app to default but nothing happens. Is there any way to fix this problem? I just want to use my default camera app, it suits me perfectly. Thankyou very much
