I just bought a G2 today and some how after connecting to my pc the first time some photos from my pc that I did not copy & paste to my phone transferred to the phone and are in the Gallery. I cannot delete them. The only option I have is Slideshow and Menu>More>Details>Set as Wallpaper. I don't want them in my phone gallery. Any suggestions? They do not show up anywhere on my phones card when I look for them. I even enabled Hidden files and folders.
 
I should add that pics I took with the camera phone as well as ones copied and pasted from my pc function normally and I can delete those. Those have a camera icon in the main folder (group). The ones I can't delete have a separate folders (groups) but a type of broken circle icon (5 piece circle).
 
Are these pictures in Picasa?

In the Gallery, on the bottom left of the preview picture of the group of photos you want to open, is a symbol. If it looks like a folder, it's on your SD Card. If it's a circle with a pentagon inside it, it's from your picasa account. They probably have something similar for photobucket, too.

I haven't tried to delete any of my picasa pics, but I imagine they don't delete as easy as something on your own sd card.
 
I think you are right! They are from my Picasa. How would I delete them from my phone? I don't think they are on my sd card. Would I delete them from Picasa? Thanks cr3ammy, I think you're onto something.

Also, everytime I connect my phone to my pc is it going to try and load images on my phone??
 
Hey cr3amy!

I deleted my picasa albums that I didn't want on my phone and they were also deleted on the phone!!

Thanks for the help! Good job!
