If I make a screenshot with Volume up + Volume down, it shows a blank picture. I have this issue only in my Jolla Tablet since I updated to 2.1.0.9.

I just have one question which could be related to this specific question here. I don't why but every time I try to take a screenshot it will be shown in gallery app but I can't send this picture on WhatsApp. As far as I have tried to find out this issue it seems that there could be some kind of problem on Alien Dalvik side. So if I take a screenshot the screenshot is okay on Sailfish side (Gallery app) but if I try to send this new screenshot via WhatsApp it isn't in Android side gallery. What's more, if I take a new screenshot the change in the amount of pictures in Android gallery changes at the same time, but those new screenshots aren't listed (or shown) on Android gallery which is quite weird. I hope you got my point :D

In addition, normal photos taken by camera (it doesn't matter whether it is Android camera or Sailfish native camera) are shown in android gallery normally so it's definitely just among the screenshots.

Same issue here on Jolla 1 phone - I think you should rather open a separate question about this?!

@Sakke yes. make an own thread for the issue! also to explain: picture folder is in

/home/nemo/Pictures/

in there are the folders: Camera/ and Screenshots/ both are shown on the gallery app, but apparenty only Camera is accessible from android apps. so, move the picture with file manager and you should be fine... until its fixed

I have the same issue on the tablet, but I think it actually works fine on the Jolla 1. If you wait a really long time, though, eventually the pictures will show up in Android apps on the tablet.

install android file manager like Solid Explorer and you can select any file from filesystem.
