[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] peisi:
My OnePlus 5T doesn't show large image files on browsers. I checked on a different phone and it all worked fine. I tried Chrome and Firefox Focus and got no luck. I tried reboot, reinstalling the apps, deleting cache but nothing worked. I did some testing and I think an image of some particular number of pixels and above doesn't appear.

The largest image I got that shows up is 3649*4543, 16,577,407. The smallest image that doesn't is 3923*4656, 18,265,448.

(I thought I would add links but since I'm a new user, I am not allowed to include links, I don't think giving partial links to bypass this policy is justifiable, so...)

Edit8: Now I can post with URLs.

For the former: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/53/Farida_Arriany,_c._1960_(signed).jpg

For the latter: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8f/United_States_Declaration_of_Independence.jpg

And when I try the latter, I get this.

The firmware version: OxygenOS 5.1.7

Just to be sure: It is not that loading isn't completed.

Edit6: To be clear, the 3923*4656 file is not corrupted or anything. It works perfectly fine on my previous phones and a friend's phone. Also, Snehasish1994 confirmed me that it works fine. I mainly use the 3923*4656 file because it's public domain.

Edit10: I've been mistaking snehasish1994 for snesish1994. I apologize.

This is really strange. Strongly hope someone can help me out.

Edit1: Maybe this issue is limited to JPEG files. A bigger PNG file of the resolution of 4300*5500 appeared on a different website. It complicates the issue further. I can't even think of any cause.

Edit2: I tried "Download link" on the latter 3923*4656 file. I was able to download and see it on Google Photo. However, I couldn't see it when I tapped "Open" upon the completion of download and opened the file in, I guess, Chrome, all I saw were blackness and a small square at the centre.

Edit3: I found that I cannot upload the bigger 3923*4656 file on Twitter. Twitter responds "Some of your media failed to load" right after I finished selecting it for uploading. I think it meets the file requirements of Twitter. And what's more maddening is that the 4300*5500 PNG file I mentioned earlier could be uploaded despite not meeting the requirements. I think this has confirmed my suspicion that something, be it Chrome or some system service or whatever, is refusing to load or process and render large image files (most likely limited to JPEG files) for apparently no reason. I am inclined to believe that this is purely software related issue.

Edit4: And now on Imgur I was able to upload the 3923*4656 JPEG file. This is insane. I really, really hope someone of knowledge will help me out.

Edit5: I tried uploading the 3923*4656 JPEG file again. On Tumblr it was successful, both from Chrome and the Tumblr app. On Pixiv it was a failure from Chrome. On Imgur, as I tested earlier, it was successful when I chose "Upload from Device" but it seems to have failed when I chose "Paste Web URLs" from Chrome. I didn't try the Imgur app.

Edit7: Since reboot and reinstall don't work, I suspect that it is not easily fixable via usual settings and such. Maybe clean flash?... I don't know.

From the fact that on Tumblr and Imgur I can upload the 3923*4656 JPEG file, I suspect that the process that is required on some sites during attaching large image files is not properly working. And this process may also be related to image rendering.

Edit9: It seems that those images are actually loaded into Chrome, or browsers but they just don't get displayed.

I think this is the case because:

1. I was able to download the image on (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8f/United_States_Declaration_of_Independence.jpg) via Option > the download button on Chrome.

2. I downloaded a whole page (https://shakespearedocumented.folger.edu/file/details/151) as an mhtml file, again via Option > the download button on Chrome. When I view it on my OnePlus 5T the image didn't appear expectedly but when I view the same file on a PC offline running Windows 10, the image was displayed. So it is clear that the image is actually contained in that mhtml file, thus I think it is safe to say that the image is actually loaded into Chrome. But it does not show up somehow.
