  • The access problem related to private photos after update to Android 5.0 Lollipop seems to be a bug in the software. It can only be rectified by another update. Hence, users just need to wait and regularly check for the next OS update on their devices.
  • In the meantime, users need to make sure that they do not do anything that will delete the pictures. For example, a factory reset which erases all data from the device. Users will be able to access the private mode photos once again after the new update is available for download.
