Can't upload files #181

Open ghost opened 9 years ago

ghost commented 9 years ago

I tried imgur.com and pomf.se. Nothing happens when I hit whatever button that would usually bring up the file selection dialogue. I'm using the lightning lollipop beta with my moto g2 on 5.0.2

I don't know if this issue still exists because I can't get to the file selection dialogue but in previous versions when I selected a file it would show up as something along the lines of Image%2a%2 - no matter what the filename or extension would be. Which made the majority of websites reject it as they couldn't determine what kind of file it was because of the lack of a file extension.

@agn4965 Workaround for the different but possibly related issue:

Go to the file picker, click the menu button, select settings, check Display advanced devices. Press back, select Internal storage, as in the screenshot. Your picture is probably in Pictures/.

primary 3apictures 2fscreenshots 2f_20150206_215701 The screenshot was uploaded that way, so it works.

That issue also doesn't happen on version < 4.4, it's probably related to the new file picker.

I see, I'll definitely try that once I can.

Thank you
