    I'm trying to send photos on WhatsApp but I'm getting the following errors -
    Unfortunately Launcher 3 has stopped.
    Unfortunately the process android.process.media has stopped.
    Does anyone know a solution?
    Thanks

    Does the app have permissions to use your camera/gallery?

    That message is automated if your phone detects that you are trying to send pictures of your genetalia.

    To thine own self be true

    ​To resolve the error, goto settings -> Apps -> All Apps -> Scroll down to Launcher -> click Launcher -> Click clear cache -> Restart phone.

    What phone are you using OP?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 395 ✭✭Class MayDresser


    Hold the phone upside down and put it in Polaroid mode. Print off the photo and insert into the WhatsApp slot, after that dunno OP.

    Its a thing with the smart 4, it detects when you are sending inappropriate content to others.

    Best to put your phone in a bucket of ice water to cool it down...then resend!

    Try sending the pictures as a "Document" instead of "Gallery"

    Thanks. This seems to work but I can't confirm what photo I'm sending e.g.
    shows that I'm sending "aWGP9F.jpg" and I can't see the pic before sending it

    Maybe try uninstalling Whatsapp and reinstall, you can backup chats and stuff before hand.

    Also when sending files as documents they will retain full quality

    The description indicates its not a whatsapp photo.

    Try posting a photo to Facebook and see if the same thing happens. Or wherever, just other than Whatsapp.
