Zoe and Dropbox compatibility

So after having this phone for a day I have discovered some quirks. One of which is when using zoe it takes 20 stills and a 3 second video clip but the stills dissapear somewhere into a black hole as can't find them on the phone.
However when I plug the phone into my desktop they show up where expected in the DCIM folder.
So I thought well what does dropbox do to manage the zoes. Answer NOTHING !
I checked my dropbox and have over 100 zoes in a folder so now I have turned off instant upload as I ser this as a headache to manage my photos.
Let me know if any of you guys have some workarounds for the above two issues.

Yeah it's a pain with Dropbox, I don't know how it can be managed.
On the phone, you can just scroll through the Zoe clip and see each individual still, so it's well managed.

This is really a BIG PROBLEM for me!! When i use Zoe feature it spams my dropbox to death...
I have hundreds of pictures which are nearly all the same and i have to delete them manually in dropbox... such a pain!

I know. Stupid HTC !!

Or turn off automatic photo up load to drop box and manually select the photo to up load

Picasa (G+) sync broke since G+ update?

Does anyone else notice that since the G+ update yesterday no photos are syncing?
In my gallery/albums/picasa there was an album called instant upload. It changed to autobackup and now it won't update. The thumbnail updates to the newest one but the rest will not. It sucks as I use this with the wife to see photos of my Son ans stuff.
I also noticed that the individual albums are only showing the highlighted photos and not the whole album.
Can anyone confirm or is this a Rom issue? (TrickDroid 5.5.1)

I have a similar issue and I am running stock. For me it will sync some of the albums from picasa/g+ but not all of them, especially the older albums.

It pisses me off because I use this often and the thumbnail will show correctly but the photos dont appear. A fix is clearing data on the picasa app in settings/apps and then opening the gallery back up

Whats with the EXTREME lag in the gallery.

I've notice every time I open my gallery to view my photos, things slow down... A lot. Especially when I go to share the photo. Has any one else been experiencing this? I really hoping this is just a software bug and I'm not the only experiencing it.

This lag mostly happens when trying to delete or share a photo; not so much when just looking at my gallery.

I have noticed that everytime I try to share a photo with my wife via text I always have to send it twice. Data issue or phone issue?

Turn off Picasa, Facebook pic anything that related to sync, turn them off. Your gallery will be faster . Mine is pretty darn fast loading.
When I try to send mms with pic, it only take about a second or 2 to load, not much lag. About 100 something pics on SD. Not whole lot of that makes any difference.

Download limit?

I got an email (exchange) with a PDF attachment today but when I went to download it I got a message that it was larger than 5MB an I would have to wait until I had a WiFi connection to download. This has never happened to me before and I've opened huge files....I'm on 4.2.2. Anyone else seen this?

Google photos

Running unicorn right now and was wondering if anyone had Google photos apk. Loved the app because it would automatically backup your photos and videos

I dont think it has its own .apk, I think it is part of google+...maybe try the .apk's from here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506344

Google Photos undeleting my deleted pics
My Google Photos app is set to Auto Backup my pictures. The problem is, when I use the "Delete Everywhere" option, it deletes them, but then like an hour later they always come back again. Why is this happening? How do I stop it from undeleting my pics????! Please help. I tried everything, but nothing works. I don't want to turn off Auto Backup, I just want it to stop bringing back pics I'd already deleted.
Anyone have ANY idea how to fix this? If so, please respond or PM me.
Thanks,
