Where to find back up photos?!!!

[AC Question]

I had a Samsung Galaxy mega until today, when I factory reset it to trade it in. I completely forgot to upload my photos to onedrive before I did however. I am desperately looking for the name to the "auto upload" folder that all of my pictures were backed up on. I tried google +, however I don't really use my goggle email and it says I have no photos. Yesterday this folder in my gallery had over 1,000 photos. Where did they go???

Welcome to Android Central! In order for your photos to Auto Backup to your Google+ Photos, you have to turn it on yourself. If you never turned it on, they were never backed up to Google+ Photos.

If by chance you did turn it on at some point, go to plus.google.com/photos, log into your Google account, click More>Albums, and look for an Auto Backup album. If there is none, then the photos are gone. Sorry!
