    Random download with Chinese characters

    I woke up to this same thing this morning on my Verizon GNex. I dismissed the notifications (there were 2) before getting a screenshot thinking I would find them in my file explorer. No luck. I installed Avast and ran a scan of all apps and the SD card and it didn't find anything. Anyone...

    WiFi Problem after 4.0.4 update

    I'm having an issue similar to this, although not with the Play store. When receiving a text with a picture, the picture will not download while on WiFi. The other problem I'm having is that new gmail messages don't seem to be coming through as they should. I've had to pull to receive...

    Win a free Epic 4G!

    You do realize the Epic is a Samsung phone and not an HTC phone right? My wife had the Moment for a few weeks, but it was just to big and bulky for her, and I agreed. Hopefully the Epic slims everything down a little bit.

    BY FAR the Best Calendar App I've Found Yet! Jorte!

    Does anyone know if there is a way to get a 4x4 widget for Jorte? I like the 4x4 widget that Calendar Pad offers so I'm currently using that. I like the look of Jorte and would prefer to use this but they do not offer a 4x4 widget. I really want my calendar to take up the whole screen and use...

    Is there an Android Equivalent to...

    Mobile Defense and iTag are the two for Android that I know of. iTag I think is for 1.6 and above. I have Mobile Defense installed on my phone but haven't tested it out yet. It removes itself from your application list when choosing to add a new program to your homescreen but if you go into...

    Gmail Setup

    IF you are able to enter the Andorid Marketplace your Gmail account should already be setup. If not, at least on Sprint, once you attempt to enter the marketplace it prompts you to enter your Gmail account information. The only other thing I can think of is to go to Settings -> Data...

    Unable to Add New Contacts to Google via the Device

    So I tried another work around for this which was to go into Manage Applications then Google Apps and clear the history. Problem now is that when I try to log back in with my Google account I get this error: Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporary...

    Can Not Remove Apps // Long Press Opens Them

    Thanks for all the info, it's working ok again now after another soft reset about 24 hours ago and haven't had the problem since. I am running Swype, so I'll keep an eye on that if it happens again. If I can't get it them I'll try the Clear Defaults method in Sense UI. Thanks all.
