Yes. You do have to enable it in the Photos App. (There might be a fee if you more than some amount of storage.) It is also possible to access the photos via the web (eg on a laptop or desktop computer).

Note: many Android phones include a uSD slot, so to conserve space on the "internal" storage, one can insert a uSD card and use that as a alternitive place to store stuff and keep the internal storage freer. iPhones specificly *lack* anything like a uSD slot -- a distent downside to the iPhone. > There is one delete option on the phone that doesn't seem to delete from > cloud, > But I've had so much trouble finding it, I can't consistently repeat it. > > You will find the images at: https://photos.google.com/ > When logged into the same account as you use on the phone > > Rich > > On 11/11/2023 10:38 AM, Deborah Chandler via Hidden-discuss wrote: > > Hi Robert, > > > > So the images automatically sync with a Google????server somewhere, and > > it's free? > > > > Thanks, > > Deb > > > > On Sat, Nov 11, 2023 at 10:01??????AM Robert Heller > > wrote: > > > > My Android phone has the option of "syncing" photos I take with it > > to Google > > Photos (this is free, but you needs a Google account). > > > > My Android phone *also* has a uSD slot, which I populated with a > > 32G uSD card. > > I keep all of my files there, and reserve the built-in "drive" for > > things like > > the apps themselves. > > > > At Sat, 11 Nov 2023 08:59:57 -0500 Deborah Chandler > > wrote: > > > > > > > > Thanks Ben and Todd.

While the main "delete" function will delete both, there's also a "Delete Device Copy" option. Bard says this, which generally appears correct. (Please verify yourself.) (For the 2nd part, I found "Free up space" in the Google Photos app under "Library" --> "Utilities".) To delete photos from your Android phone but keep them in Google Photos cloud, you can use the Delete Device Copy option. This will remove the photos from your phone's storage, but they will still be available in the Google Photos app and on the web. Here are the steps on how to delete photos from your Android phone but keep them in Google Photos cloud: 1. Open the Google Photos app on your Android phone. 2. Select the photos that you want to delete from your phone. 3. Tap the three dots icon in the top right corner of the screen. 4. Select Delete Device Copy. 5. Tap Delete to confirm. The photos will be deleted from your phone's storage, but they will still be available in the Google Photos app and on the web. You can also use the Free up space option to delete photos from your phone that have already been backed up to Google Photos. Here are the steps on how to use the Free up space option: 1. Open the Google Photos app on your Android phone. 2. Tap the Free up space icon at the bottom of the screen. 3. Tap Free up to confirm. Google Photos will scan your phone's storage for photos that have already been backed up and delete them. The photos will still be available in the Google Photos app and on the web.

Client bought a Samsung Galaxy S-23+ and hired me to set it up. Has a Consumer Cellular account. Threw out her old phone because it stopped working (Argh!)but it did work in her apartment. She bought a new SIM card for me to install. Phone wouldn?t register on the network. That?s an hour on the phone with Consumer Cellular having them try things. Finally, I took it with the intent of going to the wallmart in Hadley for help. It worked in Hadley. I had it overnight and she got several calls on it. Took it back to her and as it happens was seeing someone in her building just before. Tested the phone in another part of the building 5 minutes before seeing her. It worked. Got to her apartment - phone shows the same message about not being registered on the network. I think it?s a cell tower problem. But why did her old phone work in her apartment and not the new one? Anyone know? I?m not well-versed in Android world. thanks Annamarie Annamarie Pluhar [Patient, Sympathetic Coaching](http://patientsympatheticcoaching.com) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

As someone with EMF sensitivity and in talking with many people who also are, we have to use shielding methods and devices to protect us from excessive wireless radiation in our own homes, and we use things like shielding paint, fabric, filters, etc., which may block someone else's cell and wifi signals. You could suggest she hire a Building Biologist who can come assess what is going on. They can walk around her apartment and the building exterior with different EMF meters and narrow down where the problem areas, ie dead zones, are. I can recommend someone if you want. From there, they can help her decide what to do. Other than that, the telecom is in a frantic pace to deploy 5G and fiber optic, from which people can get wireless signals, via OTARDS, etc. Any number of factors can affect signal strength, and can change from day to day, minute to minute, and unless you know exactly what to ask, you won't get an honest answer as to what in the hell they are actually doing or exactly how harmful it is to everyone's health. There's a reason cops are there at installation sites. People are getting fed up with this harmful wireless deployment. Cops have guns and handcuffs.

Client bought a Samsung Galaxy S-23+ and hired me to set it up. Has a Consumer Cellular account. Threw out her old phone because it stopped working (Argh!)but it did work in her apartment. She bought a new SIM card for me to install. Phone wouldn?t register on the network. That?s an hour on the phone with Consumer Cellular having them try things. Finally, I took it with the intent of going to the wallmart in Hadley for help. It worked in Hadley. I had it overnight and she got several calls on it. Took it back to her and as it happens was seeing someone in her building just before. Tested the phone in another part of the building 5 minutes before seeing her. It worked. Got to her apartment - phone shows the same message about not being registered on the network. I think it?s a cell tower problem. But why did her old phone work in her apartment and not the new one? Anyone know? I?m not well-versed in Android world. thanks Annamarie Annamarie Pluhar Patient, Sympathetic Coaching -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

There are a host of things affecting these wages. One other feature of *digital* vs. *analog* signals: with analog signaling (eg AM and FM radio, old TV), as the signal degrades, you get static (snow on your old TV), but with digital it is either perfect or there is nothing. "Poor" signal quality does not exist at all with digital -- it is either there or not at all. What is happening is there are several things affecting the signal, including to what extent the building walls are "opaque" to the cell wavelength and to what extent they behave like a Faraday Cage (a condictive mesh that "blocks" EM Radiation). For example sometimes plaster is applied to a chicken wire or at least in the old days before Sheet Rock and it might also be possible that the Sheet Rock might have something like chicken wire embeded in it (for strength or added fire resistance, etc.). This can act like a Faraday Cage. Western Mass is hilly and heavy forested. The hills tend to block cell signals and tree foliage tends to scatter cell signals (with a high iron content in the local soil the leaves act like zillions of tity antennas, many at nearly the same wavelength as the cell signals). Parts of Western Mass are sparcely populated. This means that the cell companies are likely to have sparcely placed cell towers -- they are only ecomically viable if there are enough possible subscribers paying for service -- cell towers cost lots and lots of money to erect and to maintain and if few people are paying for service there is no point putting up another tower. With the hills and trees messing with the signals, there are going to be "holes" in the coverage. Also, 5G is *worse* than 4G with reguard to all of the above. The new phone is probably 5G and is likely having a harder time getting a good signal.

If you take the phone to the T-Mobile office, can they get it to work? ?She bought an unlocked phone. And purchased a new SIM card for the phone? Good, did she get the SIM card from T-Mobile? If SIM card is not from T-Mobile, that could be an issue. (even though they tell you it won?t be) To test, see if you can get a SIM card from T-Mobile and test that. It does sound like a signal issue if it works sometimes and not sometimes.. Do she live in the country? In an apartment building can also be an issue.. ?Client is clearly not mentally healthy - is telling me that the ?hacker? got through her voice mail to open apps on her phone and drain battery! Yikes. I can tell she is on heavy psychotropic drugs.? I don?t think that is possible, but I don?t know everything I?m trying to convince her to go with StraightTalk - she?s fixated on T-Mobile - which I?m worried about. I use T-Mobile myself and it works well for me, but like most carriers not anywhere near perfect. I think if the phone works in one place, Then not the other, Most likely poor or no connection to tower. If it is intermittent from the same place, Could be phone or SIM card?

Fairly simple process to install,? it even updates the server control file. Only limit is you can only get 10 new certs every 10 hours, which is only an issue If you have a large number to install when you start using it. AND you do need root access to the web server config files. For now, I'll leave the php to someone else, since I booked for now. if it's still an issue in Jan, let me know Happy holidays to all.
