App to keep pictures backed up? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I wanna have my dcim folder on my phone to stay backed up is there an app to do that?

If you use Google+, then instant upload works great. Dropbox also has its own camera upload feature. It'll upload all the pictures you currently have on your phone to your dropbox and will automatically upload new ones as you take them. Hope this helps!

Oh hmm I may have to make a drop box. Thanks

No problem!

I just use Google+ for my photo backups. I can delete them anytime I want. Plus if you ever have to reset your phone, your pics will show up in your gallery as soon as you sign in. Waay convenient.

I'd say dropbox is your best bet.

Why not just enable picasa in the gallery, or Google+? They both will automatically send your pics to the cloud. Even in real time as you take new photos.

I also suggest Google+ since it's integrated with your google account and (personal preference) I like having everything in one place. I've had some issues with dropbox sucking up network time like an bandwidth vampire.

Instagram and Facebook

Anyone know how to import your instagram photos to Facebook. I have tried sharing it to Facebook, but it will only give a link. I see that some people can import their pictures to a Facebook album called "instagram photos." Can anyone help?

I tried that and can't find nothing. Thats why I'm here..

Its handled by Facebook. Whenever you post to Facebook from the Instagram app, it by default creates an album called "Instagram photos".
Its an app for hipsters.
So chances are, they won't tell you how it works.

Its not, I think its because the galaxy nexus doesn't have Facebook sync support. When I upload a photo, it never appears on my fb account, even though I linked my account.. the same goes with twitter.
Kudos to the person who can find the solution.

Mind sharing how you got it to work? I'm having the same issue...
Haha please elaborate? I must be having a derp moment if it's that easy to figure out...
In the settings under "edit sharing settings" I have it linked to my fb account. However I thought that the photos would automatically upload just like that. But when you upload a new photo, you have to check the fb box, and then upload picture.

Oic... thanks. I thought it was automatic as well

Google plus photo upload

So today on the g+app I went through and deleted all the pictures in the 'from your phone' album. As it had loads of blurry shots and old stuff.
And it deleted all the photos on my phone!
Anyone else had this?

That's what it does, delete is delete.

What you really want though is the deletes on the phone to get deletes from my Google + account.

It'd be nice if deleting from the phone didn't always delete from the account. I was pretty irked when that happened despite the fact that I wasn't logged into Google+

That's what happens. If you just go onto the web and delete the photos, they won't be deleted from the internal storage of the phone.
Doing so from the app, however, does delete the original photos from your device.

Sprint Galaxy Nexus Question

OK, strange problem. I have a Verizon GN. My gf just got the Sprint version. When she takes pictures or sends them via text, they automatically get uploaded to Picasa I think and Google +. She doesn't remember creating a Google +, but I think the first time you create a Gmail account it does it automatically. The problem is, there are pics that were only meant for me. How do we fix this and delete the pics from google + or google + itself??
Go to settings ...accounts and sync and make sure sync to Google+ is unchecked. As for deleting them, u have to go into Google+ and delete them manually.

Go into Google+ on the phone and disable automatic picture upload.
Go to the G+ app and tell it to not instant upload. While there, delete the ones that have been uploaded already.
The pics are 100% private when instant uploaded though. They will not be shared until you explicitly do so in the app/website.
Tell your GF to give you nudes in person IMO.

I actually figured it out. I didn't think the pics would become public. I ended up just deleting her account and unchecking instant upload. Thanks for your help.
When we break up, Ill post them.

Photo app with Picasa support?

I wish the Gallery app on the Nexus 7 showed the photo description or caption or whatever Picasa calls them. No point in adding them if they don't surface on the photo. Yeah you can dig into the menu and see them but that's not good enough.
Going to look for better app but it has to pull images off Picasa web/Google plus. Suggestions welcome.

As far as I can tell justpics can only pull pics off picasa that have been uploaded via picasa. My pics going to Google plus do not show up unless in same account.
I too am looking for a good solution to house my pics someplace and have a good view to see them an the ability to upload them easily from phone. Seems the best thing so far is paying 2.99 a month for a high capacity photobucket account. Free would be ideal

Omega Rom camera

Sorry if this had been asked, I'm running omega ver 7 on my T mobile s4, everything works flawlessly except camera. It takes photos well, and i preview them and they look fine. But when I share them in Facebook, messages, Google drive, or anywhere else the image quality gets much worse, and even blurry, it's almost like it coverts it to a lower megapixel photo. Anyone had this happened? Any suggestions?

I am running omega7 on m919 with no issues on camera what so ever. sharing pic on facebook, mms, google drive, dropbox, etc, etc. did you change any settings? what's your setup? what kernel you running?
I did not mess with the settings, running kt kernel. Did you try pinching to zoom after sharing the photo? Sometimes is not as noticeable until you zoom in.

Facebook and others compress their photos. They will always be blurry when zoomed in

messages will get compressed and idk about google drive...
pictures that i want clear on facebook get resized first on photoshop and then i click on "high quality" in the fb options.
for messaging, if i need the picture clear i just use dropbox and send them the link to the original image.
dropbox > google drive...just saying
Ever thought about actually posting this in the omega thread?
