Remove Photos picture?

[PiggyMiddle]

Hi,

I took a pic of the neighbor's dog and then copied it across to the neighbor's laptop and deleted the copy on the 520.

Now the "Photos" tile on the main screen is showing her dog. I am not connected to OneDrive as I have never logged in with this phone. So I doubt the pic is coming from there. Also, when I swipe in the Photos section and tap OneDrive it asks me to log in, which of course I cancel out of.

I can't seem to get my own dog's pic back as the default for the "Photos" tile on the main screen.

I tried copying the pic back from the laptop and then deleting it on the phone, but that didn't work. I have done a cold start but do not want to have to do a full system reset.

Any suggestions?

I think this happened to me once.. Can't remember what i did to solve the issue, but try unpinning the app for a bit, snap a few more pictures and then repin it

Go to settings > swipe to applications > photos+camera > 'shuffle now' button. This will remove deleted photos.
If you only want your dog's photo on the tile, try this:
Go to settings > swipe to applications > photos+camera > Start tile shows = 'single photo' from the drop-down list > 'choose photo' button > select your dog's photo from the thumbnails.

Lend the phone to your neighbour's dog. I'm quite sure s/he will get rid of the picture for you :smile:

Awesome, thanks, that fixed it.
