I saw this posted before, but I am hoping to add more info and bring this back to life.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S8. The Tello takes video without issue, photos, on the other hand, are a problem. The photos look great within the Tello App.
But as soon as I check them in my gallery where they are stored, they are mostly Grey, with slight lines where you can see the photo underneath.

I have seen others complaining about this, wondering if this is JUST an issue on the Galaxy S8? As that is typically who I have seen complaining.
Or if others are experiencing this as well?

Anyone that had this issue find a solution? I will post a sample pic later, as I deleted all the former pics as they seemed pointless to keep at the time.

Cheers
 
So this is what shows in my gallery. Yet I can share via text, email etc and it comes through normal, as does it in the Tello App.

I can save the pic that shared without issue to my gallery and it's fine. Had to be a stock Samsung Gallery issue.

Okay, I had to make an update, upon installing a 3rd party Gallery photos from the Tello are perfect. This is 100% an issue with the Stock Samsung Gallery.
For those with the same issue, and wanting a great 3rd party gallery with NO ADS that works as good or better than Stock. I grabbed the following and am loving it:
