[Q] Geotag data not recognised by iPhoto - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using a HTC Sense ROM (VillainROM for the Desire, specifically) and tried testing out Geotagging for the first time today.
I set my GPS to on, and took the photo with the geotagging setting switched on in the stock camera app.
But when I imported it into iPhoto, it wouldn't show the location on the map.
I presume this is because it uses GPS to tag a photo and since the photo was taken inside it didn't get a location and thus didn't tag it?
If that's the case, is there anyway to force the camera app to use mobile triangulation for geotagging photos, or an app that can do this?

missing geotag from photos

I have not changed any settings in my phone, but recently all the pictures I am taking do not seem to automatically attach geotag information.
Anybody have any advice?
Inside settings, in location it is high accuracy mode...
Hi, you can try out Auto Stamper app.

[Q] Gallery App lag / bug?

I've posted something on android central forums, but I'm trying to figure out if I'm the only one having this issue. I recently bought a GN3, coming from a moto x (which I loved, just wanted bigger screen). I've disabled as many apps and samsung features as I can and got the phone setup as "stock" as I can get it. However, I'm seeing a HUGE amount of lag in the gallery app. I'm going to try to get another device to make a video, but it's REALLY bad. I have 2 photos on the device at the moment and it can take about 10 seconds to load one once it's tapped. Then zooming or trying to share the photo can take another 20 seconds. It's REALLY slow.
Also, it's curently using about 130mb of ram (using the built in samsung active apps) which is more than any other app currently running, but it's been as high as 500mb+ with the same 2 photos in my gallery. It almost seems like a bug / memory leak issue. I'm just wondering if I'm the ONLY one experiencing this or it's a global issue.
I've done all updates available so it's running 4.4.2 with the VOLTE update. I can't find any other posts specifically related to the gallery app.
Just thought I'd mention, I don't like the gallery app and have no need for it, except the samsung camera ONLY seems to work with that app, not google photos which is what I was using on my moto x.
Before anyone asks, I've tried pretty much everything you can think of related to clearing cache, data, rebooting, and I'm not syncing picasa web albums. I don't use facebook or any other services that would display through gallery.
Any thoughts?? This is a pretty annoying bug for an otherwise excellent phone.
***UPDATE 8-10-14***
This seems to be a bug with samsungs nearby services services and DLNA servers. I'm running Plex on my local network and every time I open gallery it looks like it's trying to contact / sync something with Plex. I'm not serving photo's so I'm not sure exactly what it's trying to do but it's quite annoying. It doesn't look like there's any fix on the phone itself unless you are rooted and you can disable the service. The only other option is turning off DLNA in plex or turning off UPNP on router. Just thought I'd share if anyone else was experiencing the same issue.

[Q] Google Camera Remote Control Issue

Apparently they added android wear support into the Google Camera (Google's own camera app). It's supposed to sort of function like the Remote Camera app from Asus, just with google's default camera program instead of Asus's own camera program.
I can't seem to get it to work though and was wondering if anyone had the same issue? Basically I updated to the newest google camera app, and supposedly when you launch the camera app on the phone, a card is supposed to show up on the watch that lets you take control. That card never shows up for me... Has anyone else tried and had it work successfully?
I don't really like the Asus camera app otherwise I'd probably default to that program.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The card shows up for me (though when I just used it to take a picture the phone rebooted :/). You might want to keep the Asus app, though, because the only thing the Google one does is let you tap to take a picture; no changing settings or anything.

Photos in gallery tagged with GPS location

Hello All,
So Im looking at my photos in the gallery and they're tagged with GPS info.
I've checked the camera and it says the geo location is off. I've tried to enter settings in the gallery app but doesnt seem to be an option. I've also checked my geo location in other apps and everything is turned off.
Does anyone know why this could be or how to turn it off?
Thanks for taking a look!
Not happening on mine.

Can't remove location info from picture taken with Pixel XL

I took some pictures with Geo Tagging enabled. I want to remove the location info from one of those pictures. I can't seem to do it at all on my phone.
Managed to delete the exif data from a Windows 10 box after downloading, but seems like I should be able to do it in Google photos.
Various Google search results say you can but, I don't have the option to on my pixel.
