Hi Friends I am new to this forum. I have a question. I add my gmail (google account) in my phone. But I am not able to see my phone or apps in play.google.com/store website. My phone is Samsung Ace Duos GT-S6802. What am I missing. It says I should access my play store from mobile first. I did and download an app from playstore in the mobile. But it still not showing my mobile phone or apps in the playstore website. Pls help me so that I can directly install my apps from play.google.com instead of installing it in by my mobile play store.

Long tap your home screen where it is empty, when it asks you, tap wallpaper, and then gallery. choose your file, and set the size as you want.

so.... you want to see your phone from the computer, but you can't? or is your account not working on your phone...or...? You kinda lost me.. :/

are you logged into google? i am new at this, but it always seems to work for me. when i am logged into my gmail account on the web, it knows me when i go to the play store.

Try this. Go to Google Play, sign in with your Google email and password or phrase, then go to bottom of page, click on "My Orders & Settings," and you should see two tabs, Orders, Settings. Click on Settings tab and put a check mark in "shown in menus." If you dont see any of what I've said, call Google support.

Sorry about this. I wanted to ask a new question but can't see the new question button. I can't get my Nexus 7 GPS to work at all. if I touch navigation it says Enable Location, to navigate Google Maps needs to access your location. I do ok.Google appls location settings - location access. Access to my location is ON. GPS sattelites and Wifi location are both on. Back to home, press maps. press the compass. it says please enable google apps location access. so I go to home, settings, personal, location access, and I'm back to location access screen with everything on. Tried accounts, google, location settings, no different. round and round in circles. HELP!

Don't think you can but it remembers whether you were at keypad, logs, or favorites when you exit the phone app.

unless you're rooted, and have a non-stock phone apk that allows that, you won't be able to pull that off.

Are you rooted? if yes, I would try a different ROM. If not, have you cleared cache? do you have any apps running in the background (specially running data) that are eating up your connection/RAM/CPU?

if you are familiar with programming, and have the correct programs installed, and the right libraries, I would start here, Building Your First App | Android Developers and here How to Write Google Android Apps.

if not, may I suggest 'TheNewBoston'? it's where I started learning, and Bucky explains everything very well. link: List of Videos for Java
