----------------------------------

The reason why your factory resets work and after that, you skip any other account information and key in only your google account first is simple.

The first time the picasa upload is invoked, it parses your accounts list for account information to use. If any other accounts are in there, for example, motoblur, htc sense... perhaps even facebook(which was the case in my situation), it won't work anymore.

Solution?

Dont need to factory reset.

1.) Go to your accounts list and remove ALL other types of accounts there and only leave your primary google account there. I also suggest killing all apps using task manager cept those you've ignored(like droidwall etc).

2.) Open gallery and attempt to upload a picture via picasa, you should now see that it's able to show in the drop down list, all your albums.

3.) After a successful upload, which will happen because of steps 1 and 2, go to your account information list and add back your other accounts(facebook, whatsapp and whatever else).

Now you've got picasa uploads working permanently. Youtube should also work automatically(although i never had a youtube problem because my youtube account used in the app is diff from my primary google account used on the phone and for picasa).[/QUOTE]
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OstrichSak:
[/QUOTE]

Not true. As soon as you add your other accounts back the Picasa upload is broken once again. My research says it has to do with your other accounts having the same login credentials as your Google account. As a test, change your accounts in the sync section to an email address other than your Gmail account email address and you should be working properly. This is a band-aid fix however and it's something that Google needs to address as this should NOT be a conflict. Everyone complain to Google for an actual fix to this bug.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] garypen:
I have the same issue as Jack, with my GS3.

I removed my gmail account from the email app (I didn't want to use two apps for my multiple email accounts), and Picasa uploading appeared to have been restored. However, the images don't actually upload.

The problem i think is in samsung account. After deleting picassa upload works fine... so I add account back, and problem also back.... so I tried to change email address in Samsung account to new different email..AND IT'S WORKS!!!!

I THINK YOU'RE MUST HAVE SAMSUNG ACCOUNT ON DIFFERENT EMAIL.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 2uk3y:
if your facebook account use the same email with google, try change your facebook to facebook email - xxxx@facebook.com..

i try this and solve this problem... not sure about other acount coz in my device only got twitter, fb and google..

hope this help

Samsung S3 users remove the samsung account from sync and fixes the issue.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fosormic:
Samsung account

Worked for me as well. Of all the accounts I had, the Samsung account was the one that was causing the trouble. Removed it (don't use it at all) and all is good.

If I add the account with the same email address, fails again.

I was able to upload using the youtube app all the time.

I was suspecting it was happening since I turned two-step account verification, was not the case.

Thanks all,

Try 2.2.x ROMs

Which custom ROM have you installed?

A few days ago I had FroyoBread v023f (remade) (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1190037) and radio was working well. IMHO that 2.2.9 ROM was stable and fine.

Now I'm running GingerDX v008 where the radio freezes and altough headphones are plugged in sound comes from the speaker. After restarting radio app/unplugging-plugging headphones, sound was coming from phones but when tried to change station it freezed. The UI stayed unresponsive.

So if you are good with 2.2.x ROMs, try those.

This software is licensed under the WTFPL

what this means is simple, you can do whatever you want with this software ;)

Ok guys some of you may know me from teh nexus s 4g forums, some of you may remember all the way back to the epic and heroc forums ;) anyways got a few pm's about making a nice easy one click. told em in its current state there just was no way i could take on the task. anyways its come to my attention that there was a way to do it via scripts now and without needing the dock, so i looked it over and wrote up a quick script. so here you have it the very first AIO for the photon 4g. what makes it special you ask? its got windows mac and linux scripts in it, so no one gets left out ;).

I will not be accepting donations for this script. if you wish to show appreciation, show it to the guy who wrote the exploit, who made the root even possible... without him we would all be using photon torpedo (iirc he even had a hand in that). You can donate to him here

[Motorola Photon 4G] Outer Marker:
Any prerequisites? Do we need and drivers for the USB connection? I'm assuming we need phone in debug mode, drivers from Motorola, and ADB already installed? Is that correct? Got any instructions on how to use?
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
readme is included and yes drivers are on your own, ill look around the forum and try to find a link and add it to the op tho - done :)

adb.exe and linux/mac binaries are included so should just run out of the box if youve got usb debugging on and drivers

Charge only mode.

two different computers and this wont root. I run the all on one and the initial time i did it it froze after trying to write scripts to my phone never did that. Now I reflashed my phone and tried again from stock and the root.bat freezes at hackin things everytime never goes any further.
[Motorola Photon 4G] A4b_mercenary:
Yes charge only is selected.
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
yea the issue is that adb isnt seeing the phone when it reboots, which is odd cuz it sees it when it reboots and pushes the exploit... odd
[Motorola Photon 4G] frictitious:
so what should i do about this unplug the phone and plug it back in? What about when root got to the point of pushing scripts and just never finished up.

Guess im off to dl rook checker
