Adding photos to Onedrive

[Ixia]

If I click share to Onedrive from the photos hub, does it send the full 34mp photo or the smaller 5mp?
Just trying to prepare my phone for a hard reset as it's become so unreliable after installing 8.1.

In the method you mentioned, only the 5MP photo will be uploaded to OneDrive. However, you can work this around by using the Files app of Microsoft:
1. Navigate to your Photo Hub through Phone > Photos > Camera Roll.
2. Enable multiple selection* (second icon from the left at the bottom), then select both the .jpg and the __highres.jpg images in that folder, then tap on the share icon at the bottom (right most icon).
3. In the next page, select OneDrive. You'll be brought to your OneDrive folders, where you can simply select the folder into which you want to upload your photos (e.g. Pictures > Camera Roll.)

Hope this helps.

*- Not sure on the maximum number of photos you can select at any given moment.
