Geotagging Photos? - Hero, G2 Touch General

Been taking some photos today, and have the geotag setting switched on. I take a photo, make sure that the GPS is ok, then upload it to picasa. It still does not geotagg the photo though. Same with flickr.
Note that if i first transfer it my computer, and then to picasa, it tags it as it should.
Anything else i need to do? Is this an issue?

Geotagging Question

I have the Geotagging setting activated when taking pictures. When I upload or 'share' them to Flickr and Picasa the pictures do not show the geotagged info. I only see the data when I manually import them to the pc using the USB cable. Am I doing something wrong? How can I get the images to show the geotag info when uploaded to an online photo service thru the handset?
Download the latest Picasa (3.5). Then download the picture from PicasaWeb to Picasa Desktop, and there you are. You can use Picasa 3.5 together with Google Maps embedded into Picasa
I have not tried flickr, but picasaweb works fine for me with a geotagged photo. You have to make sure you go into the picasaweb settings (at google, not on the phone) and find the setting for "Automatically map photos if they contain location data." Note, my experiments show that the pictures will only be mapped if that setting was turned on when the photo was initially loaded.

Nexus 4 Instant Upload issue

Hi! I have an annoying issue with google instant upload. If I go to my gallery and settings and I go to the synced accounts , it is selected in the google account , the google photos and instant upload are selected. Now , for whatever reason in the gallery I have the Camera folder and two instant upload folders.... one of them is the normal one with all the photos and one is empty. That one dissapears only when I go to picasa web albums and delete de empty album but that doesn;t work because everytime I take a new photo that empty album appears again and it has as name the date I took the picture. Can someone please help me to fix this and only appear a single instant upload folder?
PS I already tried this: I disable instant upload and only let google photos but then it won't upload the pics anymore; If i disable google photos and let only instant upload it happens exactly the same
It has been assumed that this is a bug on Google's side with the transition away from Picasa to G+. There is only one way I know to get rid of it and that is to delete both folders and then turn photo sharing off. Instant upload will still work, but the albums will no longer keep appearing in Gallery.

[Q] Photos Disappeared

Hello..!!!
My Yu Camera Photos & Videos disappeared just like that, i can see the whatsapp shared photos, screenshots photos, etc but cannot view Camera Clicked Photos & Videos around 5.5GB. All i have done, I remember checking out the Gallery Sync and Google account sync only when phone is not connected to internet.
I cannot view the photos in gallery (app), but can view in photos (app) and in phone DCIM folder connected to computer.
Here are some screenshots from phone and photo folders in computer.
How do i recover them ?? Please help guys...
thanks,
bharath

I really need your help... lost

Hey guys,
So I've been using my Nexus 6P for about a week now and I had to do a reset because I was having some issues with mms and for some reason my new apn wouldn't take no matter what I did. So after that reset, my mms works fine but now I have another issue I just can't figure out. So here it is...
When I go to messenger to send a mms, like a photo lets say. I attempt to attached a photo from my media (Google Photos) but it doesn't see any of the photos I have in google photos, it only shows me a photo I took about 5 minutes ago when I was doing a test. I'm sure that before this reset I was able to attach any photo I had in Google Photos to a message in messenger, not I can't. What's going on? Ive checked permissions and all is good, all approved. Kinda silly that I can't go to messenger, check the box next to photos within the app, choose photos , and not see anything .
When I go to Google Photos they are all there, but when I check it through messenger, nada... Please help.

If I had to guess... Before you reset, all of the pictures in Google Photos were still on your device. Now that you have reset, you're only seeing pictures that are on your device when you try to send an mms, but you see the old pictures that were backed up before you reset when you go to the Photos app. Does that make sense?

Thats the thing. I'm not seeing any old photos that have been in Google Photos for months, I'm only seeing new photos that Ive taken after the reset
Yea it makes sense, but I had access to all the photos in Google Photos before, now I only have access to photos that you would say are in my camera roll (iPhone term, photos taken with this device). Once again this is only for attachment. If I go to Google Photos , I see everything. Just not from messenger.
If I start in Google Photos , I can send a photo via Messenger. But If I start in messenger, then go to attach a photo, it only shows photos that I've taken with the Nexus (Post Reset), no option to see all my photos from Google Photos.
Try resetting the data in messenger just back up your texts before you do

Make sure you are actually going to google photos. When you click the paperclip in messenger to add, you are in the 'recents' area.
You'll need to click the pic icon panel (should be first one listed), that will take you to the 'recents' picture picker. On that screen click the hamburger menu in the top left, then in the pane that appears, select google photos.
If the above doesnt work, open settings > apps > messenger > permissions and be sure it has access to the appropriate areas.
Yup, I'm clicking photos. And I've checked my permissions
Can someone give me the download link to download xposed installer for lollipop
I'm tapping photos in the menu too... But photos are only showing recents not all photos
Tried clearing app data too , reset permissions. Still no go
Even uninstalled photos and reinstalled
Same issue

Camera orientation incorrect Camera 2.9.43

This morning I take a zillion photos and they upload to Google photos automatically. I go to my Mac, download the photos from Google photos and all so far is well. I go to Gmail to send the photos to family and things go sideways (literally). Once I attach the photos to my email they attach sideways. I tried the same thing by attaching the photos from the phone gallery in the email app on the phone and same issue.
If I do the same with my iPhone no issue.
Any resolution for this?
It's the portrait pictures that do not have the correct orientation once you attach to Gmail for example.
