Iphone keeps deleting all photos then restoring

My iphone is currently on 7.0.4 and is a iphone5. It has pretty much no memory. About less hen 1 gb. Any ideas as to why it keeps doing this? This is like the 7th time it's done this and does it randomly. Posted Image

I've never even heard of that issue.  And I run the stock iOS as well though.  I'm not a huge fan of jailbreaking my iPhone.  It definitely could be your jailbreak.  If you can live without your jailbroken iPhone try 7.1 and see if it fixes your problems.  Also try trevlegit in our forum because he likes to jailbreak his phone as well.  Maybe PM hiim.

Wow, I've never had problems with my photos deleting then restoring to my phone. Do you have Photostream enabled?

Sounds like something funky going on with iCloud.  Try going into Settings | iCloud | Photos and turning off My Photo Stream or Photo Sharing for a while to see if it sorts it out.

All my photos don't fit in the cloud... Yeah it literally deleted every single phone out of no where then I have to wait about 30 minutes before the have all "restored" back to device. And the iphone is not plugged in when this happens...

Have you installed anything recently? Apps, Cydia tweaks/themes/repos? If you have a you remember what it is, remove it. If you haven't, I'd advise making a list/screen shot all the packages you have installed and all of your repos you have installed. Remove every single package, then every extra repo. Gradually add them back in and keep track of what you just added, if the problem pops up again then you know what was causing it(if its a Cydia thing but since my Google search didnt turn up anything I really don't think its your jailbreak...).

Do you have a Mac? If you do, download iPhoto on your Mac. Then plug your phone in and dump all those pictures into iPhoto on your Mac and then allow iPhoto to erase the shots on your phone.

 

Then, I would sync your phone with iTunes and iCloud and the. Do a full factory reset, then restore from your iCloud backup.

 

If you can live without jail breaking, I would upgrade to ios7.1. It's a huge improvement.

For windows there's iexplorer, you can essentially do a full back up of everything on your iPhone. Pics, notes, texts, I don't think I've run into something you can't. Its a lot better than iTunes.

You could always manually wipe your photos with iexplorer and then reinstall them to your phone(there's a chance that its a corrupted photo/video messing with things too). I personally never saw a reason to upgrade to 7 from 6, Cydia had everything 7 added and more.

IOS 7.1 would probably fix the issue immediately

Yeah it would, it'd be a clean install. However he's of the mindset I was with my 5(do anything and everything possible to keep the jailbreak before resorting to a clean install). I sent 8 hours debugging my 5 to keep it at 6.1. If he wipes the photos and Cydia packages, then reinstalls the packages one by one his problem should be fixed.

Mine kept doing this when I had very little memory free. My guess is it's some sort of last resort when there isn't enough memory free for normal operation. Are you also having apps crash more frequently than normal and phone responding sluggishly in general? I would suggest freeing up some memory and seeing if that helps.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
