I notice that when an app asks for a picture being selected, the photo selector for Messages [1] fails to render photos past a certain point.

 
Here are all photos loading successfully on the first page of results:

Here are some photos loading unsuccessfully on a future page of results:

A couple of questions:
  • Is this issue specific to the Messages app?
  • Is this a known issue?

It may be a unique problem to you.  I actually just coincidentally tested out the picture selector today in Google messages (I don't use Samsung Messages), for other reasons (I was curious as to whether the photos were pulled strictly from the gallery or from Google photos) and all my photos showed up. Fortunately, I do not have a zillion photos or it would have been an infinite scroll.  Are you using Samsung messages?  Seeing as that app is degrading rapidly because of Samsung's lack of attention to it, it may be an issue with Samsung messages.  You mentioned you were having issues in *any* app.  Have you cleared the phone's cache partition?  The app cache for both the gallery and Google photos?
