| 1428676 | 2016-11-13 05:29:00 | Hi all, I've just replaced my Nexus 4 with a Google Pixel phone. I let Android do its thing and it automatically downloaded my photos from my Google account. However, the photos are displaying under the "day" view with completely wrong dates. For example, a photo taken on the 26 June shows as 26 June on the Nexus but 11 September on the Pixel. There is no pattern in the date difference. If I view by "year" they appear to be sorted correctly. Any ideas on how to correct this? Thanks. :) |

It's possible this data got stripped in the transfer. That would be where I would look first just to check its the same. I would also check if the locale was set correctly in case that differed too. Could be a case of rearranged date formats. |

Could be a case of rearranged date formats.The meta data looks OK. A group of photos taken together appear over several different "days" according to Pixel. As far as I can see, the locale and timezone are OK too. Bit of a puzzle. |

| 1428681 | 2016-11-14 04:52:00 | Did you back them up using Google Photos? Or, did you manually transfer the files across through, say, USB?All photos are backed up using Google photos. I did try afterwards to copy the photos via USB between the phones, but it wouldn't let me do this - some sort of 'device unavailability' message. Wait what the heck, you've still been using your Nexus 4 all this time?!?! How on earth did it last you so long????I love(d) my Nexus 4. Such a decent phone so no need to replace it up to now. Never used a screen protector or case and it is still unscratched - go Gorilla glass!! Recently it started to lose the plot and the battery is still OK, but had to be charged every day. I was waiting for the opportunity to get a new Google phone and saw the Pixel :wub. Picked it up in Australia as you can't get it in NZ yet. :nerd: |

Yeah but that was with physical access, not remote, right? So it'd be like losing a cellphone without having a PIN on it basically... |
