If I can't get Facebook to update via the Play Store again like everything else, and it keeps nagging me, it might very well be the last straw. They've got no business downloading APKs and nagging me to sideload them.

You're right that it sounds downright sketchy. You're seeing stuff like this, right? Sketchy Facebook update notification - Imgur For what it's worth, long pressing that notification and selecting "App info" indicated that it did indeed come from the Facebook package. It's still really fishy...

If I can't find anything else within a reasonable amount of time, I may have to go with one of those. However, I'm not entirely happy with the amount of wiggle room my Triumph would have in one of those cases. (The cases that are big enough measure 5.1" x 3.0", and the MT is only 4.8" x 2.6")...

I just tested Safe Mode for kicks. Still got my lock screen displayed. Tried entering the wrong pattern and was told the usual error. Just to set that myth to rest. Also, Safe Mode displays "Problem Loading Widget" in place of any userland widgets. Widgets from "system" apps work fine. (I use...
