This one is nuts.
Ok so my girlfriend switched to Hangouts because the stock messaging app would go to Gallery after viewing an MMS pic instead of going back to messages. Never did get that fixed.
But Hangouts is doing this weird thing where when she opens an MMS pic, it shows it for a second or two, and then switches to an old pic it's getting from some other place.

I uninstalled it, cleared cache and data, re-imported the messages into Hangouts, but nothing fixed it.
Does anyone have any ideas? She's on the stock ROM.
Thanks in advance!

I had this exact problem before. I'd tap on a new pic and it would instead show one from waaaay back. I thought it had something to do with restoring messages from Titanium Backup so I just deleted the old texts...never found a real fix.

Seems to be an under the radar bug. Always happens when a message contains more than one image. Then shows an earlier image instead. Not sure, but every time it seems to be an iPhone sender too. Maybe iPhone users just like to send more pictures!
