Is google safe? Such as the data I store on it and pictures on auto backup?

To a certain extent. I believe you can store up to 500 photos before it starts deleting the oldest one. All other data like calendars and contacts seem pretty secure to me.

I'm having the problem with Google contacts too. If I add a new picture to my google account it will sync right too my phone but the ones I added before using Odin one click will not sync. Is there a way to force the pics to sync?
I tried to change some info on a contact thinking that might force a sync. The info updated but not the pic.

I've found this free app to sync all your contacts and your calendar with your phones, tablet and PC. It stores the data on a cloud so if your phone gets stolen or breaks it will still have your data stored. People always think about this when it's too late, I decided to take precautions before I get into trouble! Give it a try, it's very simple clean and free:

Thanks for this, but did you know that Google provides this very same service without having to install any third-party app?

any way to clone everything I have in Nexus4 to my brand new Nexus5 who supposedly will arrive tomorrow?
not only contacts and very few settings how can be duplicated using gmail, I think at everything: apps, calls, sms, settings, data, emails, ...
is Google providing any tools to, like other manufacturers do?
thanks for suggestions
Root N4 & N5. Backup everything on N4 using Titanium. Use Titanium Backup on N5 to restore/extract what you have backed up on the N4.

Use settings backup option
Then when you upgrade to N5 it will reinstall all your play apps after you put in your gmail account details
Use SMS Backup+ too

I hate having to delete pics on my phone twice. Once in the gallery and once in the "photos" app. Is there anyone out there who can fix this?

The best way to do this is through the picasa tool app on the Google store. I know its goofy as crap and it bothered me for the longest time.
The photos are on your Google pictures cloud deal. The gallery just connects to the Google cloud for those.

So I regularly switch between the OPO and S6, I'm looking for an app that syncs my SMS between the two. Right now I'm backing the texts up, uploading it to Google drive, then downloading and restoring the file. This is very time consuming as I don't delete my texts very often and have over 15k texts stored.
The only app I've found to do this is mysms but it's a paid service, I'm looking for a free app or much cheaper than what mysms charges... Any suggestions?

Yeah this is what I'm using now. I was hoping to find something that does it automatically instead of manually having to backup and restore.
