I can confirm this happened after on my Samsung Galaxy after it upgraded from, if I recall correctly, v4.0.1 to v4.1.1.
What's interesting is after the upgrade I was able to sync only those photos which were taken before the updated, i.e. it's specific to the images and not the OS in general. Something else to note is this only involves sync, not display. If I retrieve a post v4.1.1 image from the device using the the android tools I'm able to view it. FWIW, I've attached the EXIF information from an images taken under v4.0.1 and a v4.1.1. The information was retrieved with exiftool. Note the change in "Exif Byte Order" values. ** Attachment added: "EXIF data from a photo taken under v4.0.1" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotwell/+bug/1025598/+attachment/3233610/+files/EXIF.4.0.1.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025598 Title: shotwell doesn't get the new pictures since a few days To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotwell/+bug/1025598/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
