I have a 4s on 5.0.1 jailbroken. For some reason I can only view pictures I receive via text/iMessage if I save them then go to the photo app. I see the small preview in the text but when I click on it to view it larger it's a black screen with the option at the bottom to save/copy. Once I save then I can see it in photo app. Any ideas what could cause this or how to fix it?

I had the same problem when I had PhotoAlbums+. Do you have that installed?

(by the way, you should have posted this in the iPhone hacks section)

I assume you have already reset your phone to see if that helps any?

Yeah I was disappointed to find out it was the cause. Let's both email the developer to let him know about it and maybe he'll find a way to fix it.
