[Q]How do I clear the auto-backup queue? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How do I clear the queue? I've taken a whole load of photos today and I've deleted them from my phone but the G+ Photos app says they are all queued up waiting for wifi. I've tried clearing cache.
Thanks

I had the same problem.
What I do now though is auto back up to dropbox. Does not queue or anything like that, works flawlessly. Then I move the photos to google drive where there's much more cloud storage than my dropbox. It's a bit of a long way to go about things, but it works for me.
I hope it will work out for you as well.

Although it says queued, once you get to WiFi it will realise there's nothing to backup and reset that count. I agree, it's a little annoying... but nothing more.

Contact pics not showing up inside sms app

Am I the only one with this problem? And is there a fix?

This happens to me sometimes. I usually just backout of messages, and go back in and it works fine. Hasn't hapened for a few days though.
Happens to me ALL the time...
Yeah from my searching it's been happening to all of us at one point or another. I usually delete my facebook account from the phone and re-add them. Pics come back.
Here is the fix - you probably ran permission fix in CWM. This is one of the results...
Go into Applications - Manage applications
Go to ALL applications tab
Scroll down to Contacts Storage and click it.
Clear its data
Scroll down to Market
Clear data
Open market - accept agreement
Resync your contacts. This only erases the picture cache not your numbers. It gets corrupted when you run permission checks in CWM.
I had this same problem, it wasn't storing the picture right in the SMS app, and other apps like LauncherPro weren't able to pull any of the contact pictures. I also had it not syncing my Facebook picture with my local contact (which I find annoying).
What I did is added the Facebook for HTC Sense account, and let this sync. When I installed the FB app I told it to not sync anything.
Now everything is working great.
Well my problem was due to the cwr and cuz I was saving contact to the phone and not to Google ! How can I have saving to Google default

Just do yourself a favor and edit your contacts at gmail.com... they push to your phone.

Second of all, don't ever save your contacts on your phone, that's what google sync is for. When you start restoring saved contacts and letting google sync run, you're creating a huge mess.
In your case I would clean up the contacts on google, then wipe your phone (not restoring any contacts saved on the phone) so that everything you have on google is what you have on the phone.
I did this a while back, and have been happy ever since.

Absolutely agree with you. After I rooted, i dont know what I did, but after i rooted, all my facebook contacts ended up on my phone. )And no, I didnt tell the facebook app to sync all) I think i added the google account and facebook accounts too fast and then hosed it up when it brought up suggested linked contacts. I just went to Google contacts, cleaned what i didnt want, made some changes to other contacts, cleared contact storage data, and had them all back how i like less than 2 minutes later. and i still had facebook for htc sense setup and it had everybody synced in about 5 minutes. been perfect ever since.

Live Messenger On Mango Problem

Hi i been using Mango for some time, recently realise one of my friend in my contact list when he try to message me on messenger it will his email address instead of his name. when i tap the email address it will prompt his name and account, only happen to him, my other friend who message me using live not having this issue, i try resync restart my phone still the same. On my Live account it show his chat name and seem fine. i wonder how can i make his name show on the phone. I notice his messaging option is only Facebook + SMS no messenger anyway to add it in? i link all his account together but still not working, very frustrating...
Hope someone can shed some light
I've got the exact same problem with like 4/5 of my Messenger contacts.
I did make a thread about a week ago but still haven't found a fix for this yet.

except your calendar and contacts are synced to the cloud and music, pictures, videos, and apps can be restored through ZUNE. You do lose game saves

When you say, restored through Zune, do you mean like downloading the App's manually, or Restoring the device?
It's just download and install some of your previous app (that were installed on your phone before you made restore).

yes, music, pictures & videos have to be re-synced. Apps have to be reinstalled. As I stated, you will lose game saves and any other app specific files and save states
if you have a backup, you lose nothing, restore the backup and everything is exactly as it was when backed up. Apps, game saves, SMS, etc...

Contacts pictures not showing regularly in Messages

I installed InsertCoin Evolution v2.0 Custom Rom For HTC Sensation.
Everything works fine as now, The ROM is great.....
But I found one thing, is it a bug or what, i don't know...
Even though I am synchronized through Facebook, Contact pictures are not showing in messages.
When I restarts the Shell, the pictures starts coming but after some time, say 7 to 8 hr, again pictures of contacts goes blank whereas in contacts list, pictures are very much there.
I had restarts the phone several times, not only hot reboot which restarts shell only but did a full reboot. Even though the problem persists...
Any way to solve this....????
Ive had this problem before...
have you deleted the HTC Twitter apk? Ive found that once I delete that, my pictures wont show up in the contacts or messages, even tho I dont even use Twitter. if you have, just reflash the rom or restore the app if you can
if you havent deleted the apk, you can try clearing the data and cache for the Facebook app and uninstalling it/removing your account. then you can install it again and it should work fine

yaah i had deleted the HTC Twittere apk....
i don't use twitter that's why i did that, sad to hear that i have to install twitter for that, twitter is like a bloatware to me.... but i'll give a try to this solution
Rest hope for the best..
did you fix your problem? sorry its been a couple of days
I had this same problem myself, the problem was nothing to do with Twitter, the problem is with facebook and syncing fb contacts with phone book contacts, there becomes a conflict between users profile pictures on fb, and the pictures u have stored for those same contacts on your google account, anyway to fix this, first open facebook, press menu, settings, scroll to the bottom where the sync options are and change to don't sync, it will clear user data for u, next exit facebook, what I did after this, was via rcmix settings I cleared the dalvik cache and cache, then rebooted the phone, once your back up and running, u can either go through each contact at a time and edit them assigning a new picture to them or remove your google account and re add it, next u can set facebook back up, this time though select don't sync, when your finished goto your system settings, accounts and sync, facebook and just tick calender events and live feed, leave the contacts unchecked, that's it, should be done, the only thing u loose is in your phone book contacts their facebook status will no longer appear.

G+ insane storage use

Hi guys, I have a problem on my girlfriend's Nexus. She has 9 gb occupied by apps, and Google Plus app has over 2,5 gb of storage occupied!!!
Is it because she has too many photos on the device?? What could I do??
Dropbox. Google drive. As for apps I take them off and put them on as I need them. The app store keeps track of them.

No, EVERYTHING in Google+ is stored in their cloud servers, even your app settings. All you have to do after clearing it's data is open it once so it can sign in.

I think is due a EMUI's battery management, because I noticed something that you describe.
My workaround is open Google photos to force syncs
I tried Your solution, it is not working.
EDIT:
It worked ? Thanks
