So I accidentally deleted some photos from my phone. I have it to autobackup w google photos but didn't realized at the time when I deleted them from google photos I deleted them from my phone. I did already check the trash on on google photos and they arent there. I think I removed them from there too. I have a Samsung Note 5 920V. I know it can't be rooted. Is there any other way to recover files? Thanks

There's some apps on the play store that can probably accomplish what you want just search for "deleted photo recovery " if none of that works then email Google since they have root access on their servers and can restore them.
do you know that email or where to go to email them

I download the theor3ginger Rom . Need to get VZW backup assist so I can download my contacts....

If you have a google account set up, all you have to do is turn on backup my data and then once you are installed with a new ROM, it will restore. Also if you already have backup assist, you can sign in online and transfer to your google account, but I believe you can download it from the market.
Would like to install VZW backup assist to download contacts and back them up to Google

I'm confused...
If your contacts are already backed up using back up assistant then just go to Verizon website and export them into a .csv
Then just import into your gmail account.
Doesn't Google already backup your contacts if you are already using a Google smart phone? I could never figure out why I had VZW Backup Assnt. on here. Glad I finally rooted and got rid of alot of junk.
Idk about you guys but the way android is set up is that you can choose where to save your contacts. Some will sync to google, some will sync to active sync, etc. However, they don't sync with one another. It really sucks because all your contacts are potentially scattered across all these servers (it can also be stored on phone only with VZW Backup). I think this is where the OP has problems with.

What I did was exporting ALL of my contacts to a file. Go to google.com/contacts. Import, remove duplicates, and there you go, your life belongs to the googlian overlord.

google only backs up if the contact is set up as a "google contact" when created. When you click to create a new contact, the default is to save to the phone only, you have to change the drop-down to google every time. If you do that, it will save it to gmail contacts.
I've looked everywhere for it.
I had to backup the app and then send the backup to the phone I needed it for.
It's a nice way of sharing some paid apps with friends.
*hinthint* Haha.

That's weird. I have Google+ install but don't have any of those "folders".
Any other apps you install recently?
Check in Account & Sync, see if any of those accounts have any kind of "photo" sync.
Gallery syncs with your google account so ANY pictures you post or share while signed in on a computer or phone will be synced to one place.
You can clear these by going to settings-applications-manage-all items-gallery -clear data...
And to permanently stop the syncing go into settings-accounts and sync-click on your account and deselect picasa web albums.
That should fix it

I have the same issue.
what i did was delete the pics of picasa and the albums which got rid of 2 of the albums.
but i still have 4 i cant seem to locate.
I have nothing other than my google account in accounts syncing.
they are empty and i cant delete them, i tried the above suggestions but that didnt clear the 4 remaining empty folders.
how can i locate them and remove them?
i dont get why there is not "hide albums" options either
Ignore this post
Dont ignore mine
I use Quickpic and you can excluded and include what folders you want to see and hide pics, great for showing friends things in default gallery without showing your valuables =D its free

I've switched off google photo sync, but now I am unable to delete photos from Gallery that were synced before.
Is there any way to do that ?

Hi,

And than I have cleared the Data of the gallery app
So all synced pics were deleted, but you cannot remove single photos with the gallery :crying:
Hi
I have a question with Google Play accounts.
I have a phone with three Google accounts. In this phone all applications have been installed with a Google account that I now want to delete.
If I delete the account with which I installed the applications (in the phone there are still two accounts) the applications are still updated normally?
Especially the applications that I bought with the account I want to delete.
Thanks and best regards
P.D .: Sorry for my bad English.

If you want to be able to update the apps via Google PlayStore, you still need to be signed into the device with a Google account, you can't use PlayStore without an account.
If you want to update the apps without using a Google account, you can update the apps by manually downloading the updated apps from somewhere other than Google PlayStore and then manually install them on the device.

Yes, in the device there are still two google accounts.
But the applications that I have paid with the account I want to delete are still being updated?

Once you delete the account you delete all record that you bought the app and will most likely fail the Google server check as it won't be able to match the email account used to get the app.
You are stuck with the email.

Not possible, though if you have Google Photos installed, they might have automatically been backed up to cloud. You can check by going to photos.google.com when logged into your google account

Hi, nice to meet you. If there is no backup of the deleted photos and videos, first stop using it. Cause if they are overwritten by new data, there is no way to recover them back. Then you can ask help from pro shop. Or if you are good at computer, you can also use Samsung data recovery software to help you recover the deleted videos and photos back. There are so many such software online, but they are not free, too. Just have a try, and good luck to you.
