[Q] Google Plus App Won't Upload Videos - General Questions and Answers

Hello All,
I currently have instant upload enabled on my phone which automatically uploads the photos I take to google plus. Apparently the app should upload your videos as well but for me it just skips them.
Has anyone got this working?
Proof the app should upload videos: http://i.imgur.com/AHMLl.png
All help is greatly appreciated!

Pretty sure it only does pictures. They'll probably change that soon. Thebsetting in the app says only photos as we'll, and no one will do videos because they can be huge. Want to cap your data plan cause the app was uploading views in the background.
Google only gives you 1gig spacenfor that stuff as well, which can be another concern.
This is just Google's equivalent to PhotoStream on iOS and Camera Roll synching on WP, since Google+ and its services is basically equivalent tibthe Social parts of Windows Live and Facebook.

I think you might be right. It definitely did used to work as I have videos uploaded that I didn't manually do.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Downloading you tube

I was told before I bought the captivate that there was an app to download you tube videos to the hard drive. Does anyone know how to do this?

I've used an app called "VideoBox". It's free, but you have to sign up for an account (you can make the account from with-in the app). I'm not sure where it's storing the video files, but you can only watch them in VideoBox currently. There is another app(YouTube Ripper I think it's called) that is supposed to allow you to download videos from right with in the YouTube app, but it appears to be broken currently.
Hope this helps.
yes it helps thank you. I was under the impression that there was already something on the device that would do this.

[Q] no gallery on lithium Rom

Just switched from victory to lithium and there is no media gallery. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to download one from the market. Or if someone could post a link for a good gallery I could download! Thanks!
more bugs
Another thing, it won't allow a Facebook sync...is anyone else experiencing these problems?
QuickPic > any oem media gallery known to Android
I don't use Facebook but I was having issues syncing Google music. Wifi wasn't working for me and the pattern lock was all messed up too.

You could extract a ROM and grab a gallery apk from that and copy it to /system/app folder. Just make sure and change to the correct permissions after you move it there.

I've no gallery either, and also the camera is giving me glitches. It seems like I can take pictures just fine, but am unable to record video. It force closes after every attempt. Pattern unlock is glitched for me as well.

I dont know how you guys feel, but no facebook sync or stock gallery means no good. I tried fixing it and after hours of work I decided to try out the Sonya v2
Sorry this was my fault, dont know how I missed the gallery, will have that fixed by tonight after work. Facebook has synced with me everytime and I'm not having any issues with google music as well. I use these everyday and are a must as well. Patternlock on the other hand is a different story. I will look into it.
A note on Facebook, if you are trying to add the account like you do your Google account you can't. Just use the app from the market. It works well and I have found it more reliable this way
Had the same problems setting up yahoo, fb and twit from add accounts.I ended up getting apps from market worked out fine.
This will b a great rom when u get the gallery work out.Been running it for about 24 hours now with pretty heavy use and battery is at 27 not bad at all.installed at 95

JRW, are you experiencing the camcorder issues or is that just me? Also I just wanna say great ROM otherwise.
Edit: Also is there a way that you could get Contacts sync from the Facebook app to work? I've seen other Android phones do that with a non-modified Facebook app; I think there's something involved with blur that tells the app not to give us that option.

Yes I am and I'm hoping it is due to me forgetting to install the gallery in the Rom as everything was working fine on my test version. I will have an update out tonight after work.
I removed a lot of the blur accounts have you tried using just the app from the market? It has been working for me

I am using the app from market and that works just fine; except that it doesn't offer contact sync (on a non-blur phone the Facebook app usually offers an option for contact sync...)

[DISCUSSION] YOUTUBE'S upcoming new feature

i don't know if it is right to open a new thread so i did it to have a general discussion about youtube and its new upcoming feature
if any mod thinks that this thread should be closed then there is no problem by me
here is an article of what i am talking about
http://youtubecreator.blogspot.sg/2013/09/heads-up-about-upcoming-youtube-mobile.html?m=1
Is this source official? After reading it, I can only think of it as forcing you to download content. YouTube is probably safe, but pushing content to your device without you asking that seems quite absurd. I believe there will be a mechanism to allow this (only to subscribed channels or even a dedicated switch for that).
Seems like a nice feature, but with today's network speeds it's not that much of a problem.
BTW, before adding features, they should fix the UI on both mobile and PC, moving the quality setting to a submenu is a crime (especially when it's on 360p by default when you can play 1080p without any problem).
actually i doubt if that feature will be acting without user's permission but we will see it soon enough
Doubt they will do this. Google is try to get rid of YouTube downloading apps and plug-ins, so why would they purposely force you to download videos?

i believe it is just a feature
generally everything is happening for a reason not incidentally

When you watch a video you download it to your computer. After watching it, it is deleted. Everything you see on the web is downloaded to your computer (even this comment). What they might do is to make the videos available for you by pre-caching it, so you can watch them offline. And for the anti-download policy - I believe google will encrypt it somehow. There is more than one way to do this.
It sounds like a list you add videos to which will download all to your phone. Then the downloaded videos will be available while offline. Sounds like a Watch Later feature to me

Something like that, with te difference that you add channels to your list instead of videos, and when new videos are available, they get downloaded to your phone automatically for you to watch them, and afterwards (my guess is a couple of hours or the first watch) they are deleted.
I guess it's more like getting the newspaper to your doorstep each morning.
Thread reopened, moved to General
thanks a lot

what do you mean?
I didn't really get what the feature does exactly. Does it allow to push content to my phone without my permission?
Or can I manually choose which videos to download. That would be a really awesome feature and eliminate the need for apps like PVSTAR.
new update is available

Can read your texts and your contacts and call log? Lol...luckily....I'm a DEV and blocked those permissions while still using it
Depending on how the App itself is hosting these said movies... ISP's will ban them and you can get a letter in the mail on illegal copyrighted movies...careful...there were apps in the past that caused this...I mean...crackle is one thing..this can be a malicious app like some before it

DropBox App - Not Uploading

I recently got the XZ Premium and noticed that my DropBox app is not uploading photos as it is supposed to. I have found out that disabling camera upload and enabling it again will make the phone upload again. I tried just opening the DropBox app to see if it will allow it upload but it did not work. Anybody else having this issue? Is it a problem with Sony killing background apps?

I have the same issue but I thought it's the problem with app itself (or Android version) not the phone.
Just to clarify, the app is uploading the photos but with a huge delay, I guess someone else with different phone on Oreo should comment on that issue.

I have another phone that is running Android 6.0.1 and DropBox runs fine on that without requiring me to disable / enable camera uploads so I don't think it's the app. It can either be Android 8.0 or Sony but I'm suspecting that it's Sony's battery management software. I have tried putting DropBox in the "Power-saving exceptions" in the "Apps & notifications" menu but that didn't seem to work either.
