Last night I was playing with the camera. Used Expert RAW, and had some pretty cool shots. Not the end of the world to lose them, but what really really bugs me quite a lot is media corruption/loss of any type, especially on a brand-new device (less than a week old).
The only thing I can think of is that the update, which I was ignoring since last night, and let it do its thing this morning, scrambled the photos. And videos. I have no media I can use or seem to recover right now.
Upon researching it a bit "Samsung corrupted photos" I find this is not unusual. Well, I had a Galaxy S9 for the last 4 or 5 years, and this never happened. (And I was using the onboard storage). So this S23 Ultra has no SD card, so it's not me, or a corrupted card. Is the phone already dead?
Moments like this really bother me.
Details: One UI version 5.1, Android version 13, (is anything else helpful?)
Did anyone else have a similar fun party on their media recently, resulting in catastrophic loss? Because if this is the new way of things, this phone is going back.
