    Must I get ANOTHER new phone?

    Thanks guys, unfortunately it isn't fixed. It only doesn't restart if I'm not using it, I've turned off the refreshing. Do you think the storage could be an issue? I only have 4gb of 256gb free atm. Kinda avoiding taking it to Samsung, because I'm not sure if it's in warranty, and this time of...

    Google Photos syncing

    After having a look, to me it looks like they were backed up, but a large portion is on "May 8th" date, not sure why. Also, my phone has started working with the app randomly, it's currently on 40k (there's 70k in total).

    Google Photos syncing

    The Google Photos app on my phone doesn't seem to back up regardless lol, I think it's due to the amount of files (like 70k), which is why I'm trying to back up and delete lol. I've basically backed it up using my Smart Switch backup, which had everything except 1 important folder, but I think...

    Google Photos syncing

    Yeah it went to Google Drive anyway, I had high quality settings turned on. I think it may have backed up. I can see random screenshots from August that I don't remember backing up, but I remember taking them. Edit: Actually no, it hasn't backed up all, I took a photo on my birthday 2 months...

    Google Photos syncing

    Ah yes I had that option selected. As for the photos. I had the pc left on for about 2 days. The back up was up until 2 weeks ago, so I guess I could just search random dates before this month to see. It's a bit hard to tell cause there's so many to back up.

    Google Photos syncing

    Hi guys. I've backed up my phone using Google Photos, but on the pc as it was quicker. All photos had synced. However, when I restart my pc, I've noticed the folders start sync again. Is that normal? It's also put files on my Google Drive although I didn't want it to, so the 15gb is full with...

    Google Photos Sync?

    The pc backup said even more lol, before I left it for work, it said 40k out of 90k backed up. I definitely don't have that many, not sure why the high numbers. I have a lot but not close to 100k...

    Google Photos Sync?

    Was thinking of doing that now. I have a phone backup from 3 weeks ago when my last phone broke. I guess I could upload those, and then do the remaining ones manually once a month until I've done a real clearout?

    Google Photos Sync?

    I've been told my google drive email should be the same as the photos, so I've changed that and waiting, but I have a feeling it's due to the amount of files. Not sure if there's a way around it...

    Google Photos Sync?

    Still no luck unfortunately I can try signing out again. It took ages to find the pics, but the issue it's not auto backing them up despite finding them. If I manually back up via the app, it works but there's too many for me to do that.

    Google Photos Sync?

    Correct, but since then I've turned them all on. But it hasn't done anything. It's still saying "Getting Photos". Not sure what else to do....

    Google Photos Sync?

    I tried it before but had no luck. Now it's showing 79k (I'm sure I have 58k), but it's still saying "Getting photos". I haven't tried clearing cache/date since it has shown 79k. Shall I try or wait? I can keep it minimised while I'm at work later today (8.5 hour shift). I'm not sure if it's...

    Files missing?

    Sorry, started a new job and haven't been active. It was hidden in Samsung, I had used one of the gallery apps which I don't even think is in the playstore anymore to hide it. I had 5 hidden folders, and it's literally the only one that's disappeared. I had found an old backup on One Drive...
