Photos stopped syncing

My photos stopped syncing in Google Photos a few days ago. I can't get it to restart. Anyone have this and solved it? It seems we can't uninstall/reinstall Photos on the 6P. I'm posting here because we are all on Nougat. (well, most of us)

Tried:

• Restarting my phone several times while doing everything below
• Clearing cache of Photos setting up Photos again.
• Clearing all data in Google Play Services (read this when researching)
• Wiping cache in the recovery mode
• Turning sync on and off

One thing is that I didn't do all of that in any particular order. If there is a special order you need to do that in, please let me know.

Thanks!
