Just upgraded to iOS 8 GM and I'm not able to delete photos..... Does anyone else have this problem? iCloud Photo Library is turned off and all of these pictures are stored locally.
Got a tip for us?

Not able to delete photos?

For me they go into a "Deleted Photos" album and are automatically deleted after 30 days but you can tap on "Edit" in the upper right and manually delete them.
When I attempt to delete photos, the trash can icon is greyed out and therefore I have no option to even send the photos to the Recently Deleted folder.
Did you sync those photos from iTunes?
Can you take a new photo with the camera and delete it?
Nope, all of the photos have been stored on my device and aren't synced with iTunes. Just tried taking a picture and I can't delete it.
Oh! Yeah that seems confusing..... I meant I upgraded to iOS8 GM, then wiped my phone and started from scratch.
That does seem odd. I would try putting your phone in DFU mode and restoring from the GM that way. Maybe upgrading from the beta caused some issues.
