    I bought a brand new Samsung Europa Android 2.2 phone yesterday after losing my previous phone.

    When I click on Gallery, dozens of my photo albums appear and I've no idea where the phone imported them from!!

    Can't seem to find out, either! Anyone got any clue?

    Do you have a Picasa account?

    I had one years ago. I thought I'd closed it down though. I should investigate that now.....

    Do you use dropbox, picasa or Drive to back up photos.
    It sounds like some programme linked to your google account. When you logged in, it downloaded the photos.

    Ah. Mystery solved. Cheers, Benny_Cake!

    My phone really should have been far more informative about the situation than it was.

    No problem! Lost my own phone yesterday so I'm quite grateful that the photos get backed up!

    Freaked me out the first time I signed into my google account on my android. Now sign into facebook and start freaking your friends out with all of their photos on your phone:pac:
