Problem : Whatsapp images and videos not showing in galary in Android

Many of my friends complaining about my whatsapp images and videos are not showing on my gallery in Android phone. To share , delete or edit , it would be easy if images appear on the gallery. So I found the solution:

" Delete All .nomedia files"

How to delete all .nomedia files ?

• Install "ES file explorer" app on your device
• Go to internal memory 
• search for .nomedia file 
• delete all

Another way is

• connect your mobile with your PC
• open internal storage 
• search .nomedia file
• delete all

sometimes It still not work ! than in internal storage open "Android" folder. In that folder if you see .nomedia file , delete it. Go to Data folder and find .nomedia file and delete it. Restart your device if changes not reflected in Gallery.

Every body excited with the new name: what "M" will stand for in Android M. Any guess? Milky bite, Mango bite , you can comment your guesses  ... But the actual question is what are the new features coming in android M? Lets see one by one .

• App permissions 

  

  App permissions

  you now have more control on App permissions. Users will be able to approve or deny security permissions, such as camera or location access, on a case-by-case basis. Currently, when you install an Android app, you agree to a range of permissions, such as what the app has access to. In Android M, you don't have to agree to things you don't want agree to. Instead, apps will ask permissions when you use a feature, rather than at installation.
  

• Finger Print Support 

  Is it end of PIN , Password or Pattern ??  may be . Android M coming with finger print password. So if your phone has fingerprint scan than for authentication purpose you can use it instead of password or pin .

• Improved Battery Life 

  In Android M , Google coming with new feature called Dose. It will take care of your battery life. When your mobile is not active , it will stop background processes running. It will improve your battery life twice.
  This comes with one sacrifice: apps don't stay as "fresh," meaning they won't be fully up-to-date with the latest information while your phone is dozing. That's a small price to pay for double the battery life, though.
  
   

• Chrome Custom tabs 

  It is for developers, to improve web experience. Now google chrome can be embedded with App only. So no need to go to chrom for viewing web content in any App. There will be one chrome tab in App itself will display the content. You can also use save password, cookies etc like normal browser.
