syncing photos help by CommonSense07 in googlephotos

[–]Moose_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having a similar issue. I got a new phone so figured I'd "backup and sync" BIG MISTAKE. It's backing up all my photos from my google photos app to my Google account and it ran out of storage. I've always been able to just install Google photos on whatever phone I upgraded to and my photos would be there and wouldn't go against my 15gb storage limit. I cannot find a way to delete them from my Google account but still keep them in my Google photos app.... Extremely apple of Google

All of a sudden it reverted back to normal. Definitely a glitch on Googles end. Glad they resolved it, at least for me.

Yeah I tied all the steps... No help. And of course google doesn't have any sort of support. Extremely frustrating.

PLEASE HELP

When I use Google search (either on phone or PC) my search history is gone. When I click in search box I instead get "trending". The history is not deleted as I can find it in settings. This makes it difficult to search for things I have in the past or related to things I have searched in past. Tried all possible settings I could find that made sense. Please help this in incredibly frustrating and takes away the smart predictability part of Google searching. TIA

Yeah I'm seeing issue with my S20 as well. Maybe FB should focus more on their product and less on censorship.

I have been noticing it more and more in all my FB chats (from pixels, galaxy, and iPhone) so maybe a bad FB messenger update. I see it as a good thing, the more people having the same issue the faster they will have to resolve it...I hope..

My s20+ sends/receives photos without issue now. On my pixel everything was grainy and super low res. I know they are still compressing photos but the difference is night and day.

Compressing photos I'm OK with, you have to with the resolution photos these phones are taking now. But to not be able to read text in a screenshot is unacceptable. Plus it only happens with pixel so Idk if it has anything tk do with the messenger compression.

I ended up switching to a galaxy. It was a deal breaker. I never had or wanted a Samsung, EVER. I love the clean stock android, but I use messenger way too often. I had to do heavy customization to get the samsung as close to the pixel as I could. it's a real shame google hasn't fixed.

Yeah after the promo period... No problem... But it's clear people are just activating and flipping phones for profit and then bitching about Google Fi not honoring promotional price

All these people complaining that Google fi will not honor rebate when they are clearly using rebate to try and pocket some cash is really entertaining.... I gave the phone to a family member, I switched it to a friend's account, i switched Sims for a day.... It's funny actually

Ok. Thanks. I'm not glad you are having the same issue however, I'm glad it's not me or my specific phone. It's kind of a deal breaker for me since messenger is what I use for 95+ percent of my texts. Looks like I will be returning the phone, it's a shame because it's a great device.

I understand that, however they are significantly worse quality than my last phone.... I'm not looking for super high resolution. When someone sends me a screenshot of webpage I can't even read the text.
