Hey guys, Im trying to get rid of google apps so I have installed GCAM port MGC_8.9.097_A11_V4_ENG and simple gallery pro from fdroid. They are both amazing, but when Im in camera app and I want to use thumbnail to open last picture in gallery, it does open but then after 2 sec screen refreshes like I reopened the app. And even worse, if I try to open gallery right after taking picture it will open new picture for 2 sec and then screen refresh and switch to 2nd last picture. Anyone had simmilar experience? Different versions of apps didnt help and cant find any replacement that works. I also cleared catch and data for both.

Im using non rooted Motorola G42

I recommend LMC8.4 Gcam, as for the gallery, i use the default LineageOS one the ROM i’m using has.

Thanks, but that version is not working properly on my phone. When I open camera everything looks fine, but if I take a picture everythig is green.

Thanks. I have google photos, but I was looking for alternative. Gallery go works fine as a gallery, but acts the same as simple gallery unfortunately

There’s an app called “Gallery” on F-Droid that’s really good, but it doesn’t fix that camera issue. afaik there’s no fix.

Aves works fine, but same problem. I guess its not gallery problem then. Seems like gcam app or my OS just hates non-google apps

I use Secure Camera by GrapheneOS on my Samsung A53, together with Simple Gallery. Working well enough for me!
