Hi guys
Just to start off, this is my 3rd M4 Aqua in less than 14 months due to them being faulty. This problem is something unique and something I have not seen on the previous two phones.
The issue seems to be with accessing the media on my phone. I have Marshmellow on ( came preinstalled with this latest device, its about a month old) I also have a 16gb class 10 Samsung micro sd card installed.
When using the built in ablum app, I only view half the pictures from my sd card and most of my pictures from internal storage. The majority of the pictures just come up as grey squares.
The built in music app cannot find any music, on the phone or on the sd card.
When trying to send a picture over whatsapp, Whatsapp crashed and freezes my phone. This happens when you try share from library or browse pictures through whatsapp.
I am unable to assign ring tones and assigning wallpapers also causes a crash.
The interesting part is that I am able to view and play my music through file comander and vlc. There is no issues with accessing my media from these two apps.
So in short my main concern is Whatsapp is un-useable when it comes to sharing content and I would like to be able to assign ring tones and use the built in sony apps.
Since i have had the device I have done a factory reset twice and i think i have formatted the sd card atleast once.
Please help me out with this. Its my 3rd M4 Aqua and really dont want to go back to my retailer as they take ages. The phone is still under warrenty.
Thanks in advance.
This could be related to the bug I'm going to post about when I was replying to this thread:
/t5/Music/Can-t-edit-Music-playlist/td-p/1196008/jump-to/first-unread-message
It's not to do with playlists, but with Media from a folder located on the internal storage, that is pointing to media located on SD Card.
I'm going to make the report post later... I don't really use the defualt music app that much.
Sorry this doesn't really help you.
But, like yourself, VLC will find all of my media, and that's the application I use for most of them.
Thanks.
I dont mind moving over to another music player, just need to learn all the short cuts.
Issue is mainly with sharing pictures and viewing pictures.
Litterally just tried to send a picture to a WhatsApp contact and the phone is still frozen.
Will check back into this thread when you have complete your post or have another possible solution.
