After updating to 1.1.2, power comsuption is heavier, so I use utilities to stop the Android support while I don't need to use Android app. After this process, I can't delet the pictures in the gallery that be downloaded by Android app, and the File browser couldn't find any data in android_storage.

The android_storage is just mounted to the home directory using a bind mount from /data/media , and this mount point is being umounted if you stop the android runtime. The gallery can still see the images as it is indexed in the tracker database, but the files are not visible using the indexed path. That's why you cannot delete the images.

Thank you. Now I konw why it is, and I believe Jolla knows, too. Could you kindly introduce me how I solve this? I wouldn't like to regenerate the registration again and again.

I don't know if there is an easy way to change this behavviour without changing system files (systemd units), so I fear it has to be solved by Jolla, if they consider this behaviour a bug.
