ReplyDeleteHi Gemlinhc,
DeleteThanks for coming.
Long tap the image in the webpage, then select "Save image". The image will be downloaded to your phone. Once the download process is completed, open the image via Gallery app. From here, tap the Menu key, scroll to the bottom and select "Set as"> tap "Lock screen"> tap the Done button. The picture will be set as lock screen wallpaper.
Hope this helps :)
I usually use Chrome, but recently, whenever I select "Save Image", It makes me choose between Camera, Documents, Cam recorder and Voice Recorder. And when I do choose, it takes me to the app, and doesn't save the image.
ReplyDeleteHi Mosspath297,
DeleteThanks for coming and I'm so sorry for the late answer.
If you used to be able to save image when selecting "save image" on Chrome, then you can try to fix your issue by uninstalling updates for Chrome app so that it'll revert back to the older version. See the following steps to do so:
1. In Home screen, tap "Apps" to go to the app drawer.
2. Tap and hold "Chrome" and then drag it to the App info icon located at the top of the screen.
3. In the App info screen, tap "Uninstall updates" button.
4. Tap "OK" button to confirm.
5. Once done, try saving image from Chrome and then see whether it helps :)
after updating to 5.0.2 I cant save photos anymore
