    Getting error: Install/Upgrade/Enable GooglePlayServices Requested by com.google.android.apps.plus

    I have cleared the error message. Google+'s download button didn't do anything. I also tried manually searching for "Google Play Services" in the Market (the old name for the Play store) but it was not listed. I had to go to the Google Play Store via a web browser, log on via the account I use...

    Getting error: Install/Upgrade/Enable GooglePlayServices Requested by com.google.android.apps.plus

    Noticed last night that if I triggered the account sync on my Google account, I could generate the error on demand. Just had a poke at the phone and if I run Google+ it has a pop up message that Google Play services are missing and the app wants to 'get' them. I'm at work, so no WiFi, but will...

    S3 playing music on boot

    SMS contacts mixed up - due to similar phone numbers?

    Sounds like a sloppy work around by the software coders. I sometimes get messages starting 07xxxxxxxxx and +447xxxxxxxxx, which in the UK means the same number. Who ever wrote it didn't want to work out the prefixes for all the different countries (as different countries have different lengths...

    S3 playing music on boot

    My other half has a Galaxy S3 (UK Vodafone). After it boots up, it will occasionally (about 50% of the time) start playing the Samsung theme music. There are no icons on the screen to indicate what is playing the music or why. The only way to stop it is to pull down the notification bar, on...

    Getting error: Install/Upgrade/Enable GooglePlayServices Requested by com.google.android.apps.plus

    I have an HTC Desire Z running Gingerbread 2.3.3 and HTC Sense 2.1 In the last 24 hours I have started getting a message popping up on my notification bar. The icon is an exclamation mark in a triangle. The title in bold is "Install/Upgrade/Enable GooglePlayServices" and the line below reads...
