[Q] any way to recover photos from a diffrent one??? - Sprint HTC One (M7)

I am on my second htc one...my first one had a os crash and i had to get a brsnd new device from sprint....when i got the new devi e i had only one pic i had taken while in disney world...im confused becuase the picture i have now was taken at disney and the rest of then are not there....once again....new device and pic showed up on new one...any help would be greatly appreciated

I wonder if there was a HTC backup done with the HTC backup app that comes with the phone. Maybe just the one picture was backed up on your old phone and the backup on the old phone was restored to you new phone?

You can't check the HTC Backup unless you restore your phone using that back up but it does not back up photos. I hate to say this but I think your pictures are gone. Without removable memory, using a service like dropbox, copy, google+ or equivalent is important. I prefer google+ for this because it does a decent job of organizing and cleaning up my uploads but I use dropbox too since I have so much free space.
Sorry about your luck ...

You need to run the setup app. It will give you the option to restore from HTC backup.

Not trying to spam but if you try the app COPY it has free cloud storage and can be set up so that whenever you are on WiFi it will automatically upload any new pics or videos you have taken on your phone.

Two Facebooks?

When I go to Manage Apps I see Facebook and Facebook for HTC Sense. Can I delete one? I'm trying to free up space but I don't want to screw up anything.
I'm rooted with Damage Control v2.09.01
Yes, you can remove one or both. I removed facebook app that came packed with ruu and reinstalled through market so I could delete it through market later without having to adb rm.
Thanks again raz! I was hoping to delete the one that came with the ruu, but I didn't want to blow it and lose Facebook. I'm too much of a FB junkie.

A bit off topic, but you should update your ROM. DC is at rev 3.2.X now. Check the second post of the main thread as it's the one being updated currently (July 15, 2010)
Also, I'm pretty sure you want to keep HTC for Sense...I think it's the one that sync contact photos. At least that is the one I always enable in accounts and my contact pics show up every time.
Cheers!
You're right about Facebook for HTC. When I removed it I lost my pictures in my contacts.
I tried installing DC 3.1.2 but I got an error and couldn't install it. I want to do the latest version but it says you have to do other steps first for 4G. Do I still have to do them on my Hero or is that only if yore doing it on Evo?
Until I can figure it out I'll have to stick with what I have.
DC 3.2.X is for the EVO.

So what is the highest version to use with the Hero? Maybe that's why the one I tried wouldn't work.
2.09.01
Read: final hero version
Sent from my Hero CDMA using XDA App
Thanks sierpinski13. I was only trying to go higher because someone mentioned I wasn't using the latest version. I wish I would have known sooner that I was already on the best one for the Hero. I had to go set everything up again after 3.1 didn't install.
That's partially my fault, I forgot to do a nandroid. Oh well, I'm good now.
I almost wish I had the Evo but it's more per month and I don't think there's much 4G service around here anyway. I really have no complaints about my Hero.
Is there a way to get the Facebook for Sense apk without having to go back to the Sprint RUU and start over? I can live without it but I lost my pictures on my contacts and I think I'd like those back if I don't have to go through a lot to do it.
Any sense rom should have htc Facebook built in. You could also try an app called syncmypix.

Facebook App Update 1.3

Having issues downloading and installing, can someone post the apk please?
Really, no one thats looked at this can pull and post the apk real quick?
I was coming here to find out the same thing.
Also if anyone knew if it has sync (I'm unsure as to if the official one has it on any of the android versions since the version I'm using has it but it was from an apk I got here on xda).

Oh whoops. I read your post as "it doesn't have sync" lol
Haha ok I figured that might have been the issue, looking back I could have worded that better to make it more clear.
Seems the app has major battery drain issues though (which went back to normal after I turned notifications off, sync is still on though), so be aware.
I grabbed mine from here: http://www.freewarelovers.com/android/app/facebook-for-android
Can anyone give me a reason to use this app instead of the FB touch site? As far as I can tell, the touch site does everything the app does, and even more.
The main reasons I use it is for the contacts sync and the (not very good) widget.
How come when I click sync now for my facebook friends it doesnt update their new photos it shows their old photos in contacts
anyone have an idea

Try setting the review time to none. I just tested both taking pictures and video and both are working. Make sure permissions are correct.

I'm on stock GB leak and its working perfectly other then the 1080p recording.
I downloaded the file
Copied it to my SD card
Used Super Manager from the market to delete the old camera app and copy the new one
Changed permissions as stated in the topic
Rebooted and it works unlike the old one
I can snap pictures but it doesn't save. So yea the same old problem.
I just set this up. If you set the review time to none it wont freeze but it's not saving the pictures.

How do you handle not having external memory?

Hey guys, I am currently on the rezound and most likely going to the One. I was wondering how not having any external memory has been for you guys? Does flashing new roms wipe everything you have or is there two different partitions? I have some backups of apps that I don't want to lose. Thanks in advance.

How do we handle it? Uhhh..... just like you guys do. It's not nearly as big of a deal as you people are making it out to be. I actually feel sorry for you guys with garbage external micro-sd cards. Writing a movie to those things takes forever. I drag and drop files and they take seconds. Enjoy being left in the past. Just like those kids crying about not having a removable battery. Boo hoo now you can't play Candy Crush Saga for 13 hours straight.

I agree. I'm completely happy with only having one storage point.
In the worse case scenario I can always OTG a flash drive.
It acts like external storage, its not tied to the system/data partitions

Initially that was a concern of mine coming from a Galaxy S3 but it actually hasn't been a problem at all I've plenty of photos, videos and music not to mention apps, etc on my phone and still a good bit of storage left.

Thanks for the straight forward answer. And for not being rude about it. I only have a 16 gig SD card anyways, I don't like having a whole lot of things to filter threw on my phone anyways. I haven't read anything online about how the storage works on phones with no external memory so I was wanting to know.
As far as flashing roms and all, is there a small allocated amount for the rom to write to? Just trying to understand it more that's all.

Play music. Google drive. Google+ for photos. Fixes any and every need for onboard storage. I came from an 8gb nexus 4. With 32gb I'm laughing. Way more storage than I can dream of.
I didn't want to start a new thread for one simple question so I figured I would ask it here. My wife just asked me a question I have not thought about so I would like to know if anyone can answer/test it for me. She asked if she got an htc one and her phone would not boot up after awhile of having it, if she can still get the pictures/videos off the phone to transfer them to the computer. Or would she lose the pictures/videos? We are expecting our second child in December, so she doesn't want to risk losing new pictures of the baby. Can anyone test this for me?

I am not sure if the phone completely died (what I assume you mean by not boot up) if it would still be recognized by a computer to get to the photos. However, every picture I take with my phone is instantly transferred to my Dropbox account, so I never worry about losing anything. With proper backing up to a computer and managing Dropbox (for example, take pics, they are automatically synced to Dropbox, at some point transfer the same pics to your computer, then delete them from Dropbox so your Dropbox doesn't fill up), the chances of losing anything are slim.
Hope this helped....
Yeah, she is on her 7th phone now, so she very cautious and worried that her next phone will have an unreal amount of issues. She isn't one to have a whole lot of steps to achieve something.

Don't freeze g+, or remove..

Doing this caused me untold grief. My camera and gallery stopped working as a result. I thought it was a LP bug. I flashed the update, froze G+and no gallery. To cut it i used a file reader and found links, unfroze G+and got gallery etc back
Hope it helps someone
I've always had G+ disabled. The camera on my N5 still works just fine, and I downloaded an app for gallery because I didn't like the new photos app.

You on lolipop? It's purely linked to that. Use a file reader and you will see why the photo app is dependent on G+

I use quickpic instead of the g+ gallery, which keeps uploading my photos to the cloud without my permission...
You should be able to stop that. It's in googles rules for apps. If you are lucky and have the paid version of JRummys "Toolbox pro" there is a tool which shows how many secret radios each app has and switches them off if wanted. Some have a dozen each way!
I just downloaded it. I like the look but as you say there no do not send switch. It does say "upload list" or something. So it just ads pics to that? That's the only way it could do it. Does the camera have an auto upload feature? That would cause it
You can also use the stock Gallery app from KK. Works great without bugs
KK looks better by the day.. No I'm fine with g+on. I'm scared of the camera going again. That may of been a bug. I dont know but my fiance is 8000 miles away so Skype is vital and we send tons of pics. She's buying clothes now... The week with no camera was so bad I bought a 610 after a day to fill in

Try just disabling the app from the settings. I run with it this way and have no problems. Granted the photos app doesn't work but oh well I'll live. Google+ drains my battery anyway.
I think kk looks better, especially with the industrial design apps as they have a coordinated look, lacking b4. I used to hate HTC 's sense but the current version looks great, again with the new apps

Photos is embedded into Google+ and they got rid of the AOSP-ish Gallery on their factory images, like how they got rid of the AOSP Browser and added Chrome.
It is possible to use Google+ without Photos or vice versa, if you open a terminal emulator and disable activities with pm disable packagename.activityname
i.e. disable all the Photos activities and you have Google+ with Photos disabled, disable the Google+ activities and you have Photos without Google+.
What can't be done is separate them into separate apks.

This ^^^
I froze G+ and photos and installed QuckPic. Camera works fine with no issues
I deleted the following directories:
/system/app/Photos
/system/app/PlusOne
Then I deleted the following db files from somewhere in the /data directory.
pluscontacts.db
pluscontacts.db-journal
plus.db
plus.db-journal
Did all that from recovery.
Then I installed PicsPro.
Yes I've frozen it again and put the kk gallery in. Works fine. Reason for posting this is people who freeze G+ and loose photos as the bug in the 5 original LP had a bug where you lost the camera and photo for no reason, as happened to me. Don't want pple to mistake it for a bug.
