Photos not saving

[Gregsomehwere]

I have an unlocked Galaxy S25 Ultra (SM-S938U1).

As of yesterday (2/21/25) when I take images, my phone will not actually save them, and it keeps loading as if it's still refining the picture. It shows in my notification panel that some images have still are still being refined after multiple hours. 

I cannot share the images to social media, send them to anyone, or send them to other applications internally.

Try this, touch and hold the camera icon until you get an applet popup. Then on the top right of the applet that is a small circle with an "i" in it. Click on that, then go to "Storage", then clear both the cache and data. Clearing the data wil reset the phone back to it's factory setting. You'll need to set your camera preferences again which takes very little time to do. Hope that helps.
