General :: How To Get Google+ Instant Upload Free Storage For Any Photo
May 13, 2013
You know that Google+ Instant Upload photos don't count against your storage, but do you want that free storage for any photo at all? Here is a little workaround
Simple, but effective: just hook your phone up to your computer and drag and drop any photos you want into your phone's camera folder and, viola, they are treated like newly taken photos and uploaded to G+. (or use a file manager right on your phone to copy and paste there). Then, just delete those photos from the camera folder afterwards.
Now, keep in mind that they will be reduced to the "free upload" pixel limit of 2048, just like any other instant uploads, but for many of us, our camera phone pictures are not much bigger anyway.
Extra pro-tip: videos are also "free storage" and they don't reduce their quality at all. You can really maximize your free G+ storage with video.

How google + select files for instant upload?
Will it upload new movies transferred to the device via USB transfer mode to the google + gallery?
Currently I see that the wallpapers I download gets uploaded to google +, but if this happens to movies, that is bad.

The latest update of google plus mentions high resolution instant upload, but I am not seeing this functionality .. Also with previously uploaded photos, they remain at low resolution ... will I have to remove them and allow my phone to re-upload the images?

The instant upload feature on my Samsung Exhibit II wasn't working for several months. No it has started working again, so any pics I take go to instant upload as they should. But, the many pics taken during the months that it wasn't working are still on the phone and not on instant upload. It seems like it should 'sync' them but it is not - it is only sending any new pics I take, not the old ones.

Any way to have screenshots taken with the device, or downloaded photo's, be directed to the instant upload feature?
Seems like instant upload pulls from the camera folder only.
Screenshots are saved to their own folder, as well as images saved from browser/apps, which would appear to exclude them from instant upload.
Maybe even a way for screenshots to default save into the camera folder? Likewise for downloads?

Yesterday Instant upload album on my N4 got split into 100+ new albums and now all the photos taken on the same day are in a separate album with the date as the album name. This makes viewing photos on the phone useless since I now need to go through 100+ albums to find a photo.
On the G+ photo page everything looks good (ie no 100+ albums) but once I go to PicasaWeb the same problem is there as on my phone (Instant upload album got split up into 100+ albums)

I currently have G+ to sync photos. In my gallery, every photo syncs just fine except for the Instant Upload folder.
In the G+ app, under photos - Instant Upload album displays the images just fine.
In short, gallery shows Instant Upload as a blank folder but G+ shows it full of picture.

I've been reading a few old posts about a problem I've been having when taking photos with my new phone(in title).
When i take a picture holding the phone vertically it comes out sideways, but only when i E-mail it or upload it somewhere.
The general consensus i got from reading older posts were, that you have to hold the PHONE(not actually a real standalone camera) sideways to take the photo in its proper angle. So my question is... is this correct? Is this actually true?
Now had i known this previously to taking dozens of photos, i would still be pissed off! It's ridiculous if this is true.. i mean first of all why can't i have the option to take it vertically for an up right photo.. secondly, why when you open your camera to take a photo doesn't the initial screen appear sideways as to identify the standard operation of taking a photo with the phone, And thirdly, why display the photos in the gallery in the vertical position when taken vertically, shouldn't it be displayed sideways then??
It's a phone, not a stand alone camera.. phones are generally held in the upright vertical position at most times.. it makes sense you should also to be able to take a vertical photo with out having to rotate it sideways.
When i view my photos in the gallery that i had previously taken in the vertical position, they appearing vertical... not sideways!! Why not display it sideways, as it's meant to appear in the true form..... Okay..now.., when i E-mail a photo taken vertically to someone, on the photo icon in their email it appears normal and upright, but when you view it or download the photo it comes out sideways, right.. but then when i try to correct those photos in the gallery on my phone by rotating them to the right so it should appear normal when someone views or downloads it, it appears again sideways but in the opposite direction, as if I've taken the photo properly in the "Camera" position to appear normal, but it appears rotated it to the right... again not in the upright position.

Have any of you ever clicked on the "I'm Feeling Lucky Mix" button which creates a mix based on your music taste?
this is a great and excellent feature to have. I've clicked on it multiple times, and now I have multiple instant mixes.but how do you delete an instant mix? I have these instant mix playlists now, and I don't want them anymore.
I thought I had deleted them somehow previously (don't ask, I can't remember), and what's even stranger is that when I click on "Listen Now" 'All Music', I see all my music there, however, I also see Instant Mixes, I don't want them in there anymore.
When I go to http:[url]....and login, and click on "Instant Mixes", THERE ARE NONE ! When I click on "Listen Now", there are none in there also!, this is how it should be on my cellphone/tablet as well.Yet on my tablet, when I view All Music by clicking "Listen Now", I see them in there.clicking on the 3 dot menu doesn't get rid of them because there is no remove option, no delete option either.

just trying out Google Play Music today. I'm confused though as I have around 10000 music files sitting in a folder on Google drive. I can't see an option to ask Google Play Music to look into Google Drive and upload the music from there. I have connected my Google play music app on my nexus 7 to my Google account' but nothing seems to happen. Surely Google is able to connect two parts of its cloud together and I don't have to re upload everything?

I've written an app that syncs social network photos with your phone's contact photos. It works great. However, I have an option that lets the user skip any contacts that already have a photo added. This works great until the phone (I assume) syncs up the photo from the social network with Google Contacts.
I use a hash of the pic to track if the picture is one from my sync app or one that the user has added themselves. So, if Google Contacts changes the format of the pic, then the hash will change and my method is no good!

I have some requirement to upload photo. I am able to browse gallery but not able to pick any photo from main gallery. Android allows us to upload snaps from SDCARD, I think there must be some way.

I have 3 days into this and my mind is melting oozing out my ears...
The end result is that I want to upload selected photos from and Android phone to a php website.
I can display the images from the camera and get the filename that I want to upload. However I cannot use FileInputStream on the file name because it is not private to my application. Use FileInputStream generates an error that the file contains a path separater.
Does anyone know how to get the filestream running? Do I have to copy the file into a private file store?
After 3 days of googling this I am amazed I haven't that answer.

What do you use to reduce the size of photo's to upload here? What I do is right click the photo and select "Send To" then " Mail Receipt" then window's asks me if I want to "Reduce the size of the photo so they will send faster" and I click "Make my pictures smaller" then when outlook express opens I right click on the jpg and drag it to a folder on my desktop so when I upload I get the picture there. Is this OK or is there an easier or better way of doing this?
