Android not downloading/recognizing Dropbox photo files

[Surge 92]

Clearing the Gallery app data won't delete your actual photo files -- it'll just clear the Gallery database, which gets rebuilt the next time you open the Gallery.

Okay. I downloaded some more photos before clearing the gallery data. I then went ahead and cleared it, but the photo still don't show on my downloads album. Do you think a glitch in the latest Android update has something to do with it? I swear it was working just fine prior to that.

Were the additional downloaded photos through Dropbox, or did you try downloading from other sources? If it happens with any source, then you may be right, it could be an issue with the latest system update pushed out by Samsung But if it only happens with Dropbox, then I'd suspect some oddness with Dropbox itself.

Any other pic I download from the web saves and shows in the gallery just fine. If I long-press on the photo previews in my Dropbox folders, they download and save just fine, too. It's when I try to download the actual high-res files, as shown in the screenshots I previously posted, that I run into a problem. But it wasn't a problem before.

At this point, I'd submit this as a possible bug to Dropbox's tech support and see if they're aware of it as an existing issue.

How did you make out ?

I mean I figured out another way to get the downloaded photos into my downloads gallery album, but I'm annoyed that I have to resort to that, since everything was working fine about a week ago. And I don't know if it's an Android 10 glitch or something with Dropbox.

Has anyone else had phone numbers unsave from their contacts since the update? I noticed today three numbers I had saved in my contacts were no longer saved. I had to save them all over again. I wonder if I should blame that on the update also.

Haven't noticed on my Note 10+

This Android 10 update is really making me paranoid. Tonight, just like that, my Winamp player app started acting up and stopped playing in the middle of every single song. I had to uninstall and reinstall the app, and it's working fine now, but it has me thinking about what's going to start acting up next.
