After the long-awaited launch of Google Drive, it was only a matter of time before users began seeing integration with Android apps. While there's no official Android API for Google Drive just yet, many devs suspected that Drive's Java API would work just fine, despite a confusing statement on Google's developer site:
Warning: Apps will not have any API access to files unless the app has been installed in Chrome Web Store. To test an app during development, you must first create a listing and install it.Putting that idea to the test, popular (and extremely versatile) backup solution Titanium Backup has made use of the cloud service's Java API to bring Drive backup options to users in a recently released update.

While it's great to see added Drive support, the ability to schedule Drive (or Box) backups seems to be missing, despite the app's promise to schedule Dropbox, Box, and Drive syncs.
That being said, Titanium Backup's added Drive support makes it the first app to officially deserve this badge:

If you haven't already, hit the widget below to grab the update. It's worth noting, though, that only the PRO version of Titanium Backup supports Drive backup. Source : AndroidPolice

Hi!
I get a problem with the Gdrive Sync.
I made my first Sync and all seems to be ok.
But when i try to make a second one, Titanium send all my backup again. Even the one already sent.
Somebody already know the issue ?
Thanks

That's not a bug. I explain : If you syc yesterday and what if you install new app or do something with your applications its their responsibility to Sync it on Gdrive. Its also same with Dropbox, Box.

I get the exact same issue you were responding to, but im a bit confused by your answer. Surely if you make a backup of an app and that backup file doesnt change or get updated again, then Gdrive, should see the file is the same and skip it, not upload it again... i.e how sync is supposed to work.
Does anyone else have this problem and know why it happens?
Yes it's totally what i tried to explain.

You can schedule synchronization, it just has to be added on to the end of another scheduled backup action.

Are we able to add sites ourself still to this? Or do we need to request through you once using the custom white list?
Also, after I did this, I restarted my surface and when restarting it acted as if id just done a windows update? It had the percentage up and said windows was updating, however I hadn't installed any updates nor had any auto installed. Is that meant to happen? Since doing it I feel my internet has been a little more sluggish also, not sure if it's just in my mind.

I am designing the V2.0 which has a online website for adding new URL to the Whitelist.

Hi,
There is no need to restart your Surface. Select [1] only download a Whitelist to your c:\users\public\downloads folder. Select [4] will copy that Whitelist to replace your existing one and then it will clear browser's history. Even you have IE open, refresh the website once, and it should work.
added streaming movie site: solarmovie.so and most of its embedded sites.

I've tried searching for a thread concerning my question but couldn't find one. I'm really surprised nobody brought this up. Or my searching skills are really messed up... in which case, I excuse myself.
What I want to do is to make some room in my sdcard by automatically uploading pictures, videos and files (if possible) to my Google Drive (or any other Cloud Storage Service) and delete them locally. Basically, making my cloud drive a truly virtual drive.
Has anyone tried/achieved such a thing?
Thanks.
Is this what you are looking for?

The default photos app does that

DropBox does this. Check it out. www.dropbox.com
It allows you to view your files from any device you choose.

No, that way pics get backupped but won't be deleted locally (to free up space).

You're asking for functionality that is very hard to be implemented, even tho it sounds simple.
Basically there are no real viable ways to verify if a given file is not corrupted when uploaded to the cloud. At least not in a way that won't be creating singe huge overhead.
Anyway, if you find something that works, let us know, I'm also interested in such app/script/whatever.

I think I've partially achieved the goal by using DropBox. Unlike Google Drive, files aren't deleted from the cloud when they are deleted locally. But I have to manually delete files from the phone, since I haven't found a way to delete on upload. And, thought, this just works for pictures and videos, not for other files, that would have to be uploaded manually too.
I know that even when sounding simple it's not that easy to accomplish... but I believe Google made the Moto G with such a small storage capacity (to reduce costs too, I understand) to be complete with cloud storage, so...
Hi!
I've noticed new options when I enter settings and select my google account (sync details).

Do you know what are these? Weird is that there are "*" in some titles. Do you know what are these with star? Do you know what exactly does it sync? Do you know why there are 2 exact same positions? Don't know why one of these options is in english while rest is in Polish. Is everything OK or maybe I should wipe data (I dirty flashed when coming from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3)
Thanks in advance
These are supposedly hidden sync points. Have you installed Greenify?. Greenify Experimental version enables/displays these 'hidden' ones - so you can chose to enable/disable sync on them.
Yes, I installed greenify but never would guess this is because of greenify. Thanks for help
Mine now has 3 options for photos...
Google photos
Auto backup Google photos
Google+ photos
..nice one Google for making your software so easy to understand.. nobs
Can anyone say what exactly does that sync mean:
- Location and location something
- Google Play services
- Push subscription
I was curious about these too. And also why there are 2 "Game Data" options
Also, I unticked a bunch of them (i.e. Push Subscriptions, Google Photos, etc.)
But notice that they get reticked (upon reboot, I think)

High Performance Photo Map for your Google Photos

This looks great!
Although, it's not currently working for me. Are there any specific setup steps I need to take?
Hello, normally you should simply follow the instructions. Google photos sync has to be enabled in the Google drive app.
Please contact me via mail using [email protected].
I will support you.
Thanks
Sent you an email.
Very nice app. Looks like it's working great
Thanks
Like others have noted on Google Play, nothing shows up for me either.
That looks so great, i am going to try add for some ıstanbul views if its possible
For all who are facing problems: the sync process can take some time. If photos are missing, please switch the sync off and on again.
Here is the local storage version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levionsoftware.instagram_map
I can provide support by mail if you want. Thanks. Denny
I just wanted to let you know that I don't use ANY analytics or home servers. Your files are safe and ONLY ON YOUR DEVICE! Only this app has access to your files. ONLY PHOTOS (ONLY your "Google Photos" Folder) are queried to get the following information: id, name, size, mimeType, fileExtension, imageMediaMetadata/location, createdTime, webContentLink, thumbnailLink
Hm - Photo Map shows me only my pictures from before 2015, and if I check Google Drive from a browser, it also only shows these photos. Iirc, 2015 was when Google introduced the cloud sync with reduced "optimized" quality (rather than original quality). Photos synced with "optimized" quality are not counted against the Drive quota, but also seem to not show up in Google Drive at all, and I guess this is why Photo Map also does not see them.
I would suppose (just guessing, of course) that this is also the reason for others not seeing their photos: "optimzed" quality sync?
Cheers

My app is in the Top 10 TRENDING of photography!!
The newest version also supports a mode where the whole drive is used and not only the Google photos folder
You can enable it in the settings.
The newest version includes a brand new date view!

A new version with some bug fixes has been released. Try it out!
I improved the user interface, you will be happy to see a bigger & cleaner map!
Major bugfixes has been released in the last days!
I released a version dedicated to Google Drive: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levionsoftware.photo_map_for_google_drive
The other app loads only the Google Photos folder (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levionsoftware.photo_map_for_google_photos)
A new version is coming out very soon. The data source will be the official Google photos API and the location history will be used as location data.
I think I will create another post because I can't edit the title of the current one.
Stay tuned!
Is there any (simple) way to change the location info of a photo?
The original purple version of photo map will become an all in one app for all providers, inclusive cloud! Be prepared and stay tuned!
Closed at OP request. Integrated into an all-inclusive app: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-photo-map-local-device-storage-t3945320
hello, i have a samsung young 2 (sm-g130m) and i created a custom rom without google apps, in the installation in one part it asks you for a google account, so when it reaches that part the app goes back and I can't skip it ( after end user licence)

Hi and welcome.
I don't know your specific device but by analogy to others I can answer you, because I did the same thing, un googling my dewice by modifying the flash package components.
So, if it doesn't let you skip it, it seems that its not possible to do that, as you have to go through this entire process.
This first "install" sequence, whatever it forces you to do, does also real mandatory configurations.
If you get through it once (with fake credentials or even with a real one if it insists to check it - which would be very unfair by the way) it won't come back and all you have to check is that if it effectively uses google service to connect (like playstore) or not.
On my device I could get rid of EVERY google app and online service, playstore, gmail, youtube and all facebook and tutti quanti. So no credential could be used for this anyway.
I don't know how you managed to make change into your rom. It would be good to tell.
(I mounted the filesystem on linux to delete those big-tech apps.)
Just tell a bit more how you proceeded.

Hello Thanks for the response, i use the ASSAYYED_KITCHEN and the work folder for delete apps i think are useless ( i use assayyed kitchen because i follow a tutorial on youtube )
Hi. I din't know about this one. Will give a try !
Hello, I was trying to move apps and by removing some of these I was able to make the installer not appear, I can now use my rom and my device runs faster!
