Searched the G2 forum and didn't find a topic like this.
I am on my second G2, and although I don't necessarily like this one better than the first it was way cheaper than the first.
I am contemplating sending this one back too because I randomly keep getting messages saying "SD Card Unexpectedly Unmounted" and the only way I can get it to "mount back" is removing the battery card and manipulating the card in some way.
It's really annoying, and if it wasn't for that one problem I wouldn't exchange the phone.
Anyone know why this could be happening?
happened to me once. All I did was click the notification and it mounted it

Hmm, I will try that next time.
Has it happened again after that?

No not at all. What sd are you using?
Happened to me a ton of times, until I got annoyed by it.
I reformatted the card and re-loaded my data back on and the prob was gone. There was a couple of corrupt files on the card.

sim city is 1 of the games that's 10¢ today and I'm DYING to download it, but it says our phones are incompatible. anything we can do to change that before the sale ends? any mods or anything you can think of?
It's just you. I got it fine. Did you change your resolution?
No, never
even when I search the market from my computer, it says it's not compatible with my device

You're wrong, because I can't get it either. How can you possibly know it's just him!? It will install fine on my tablet, but won't even show up under My Apps on the phone.
I just loaded up market on my phone and Simcity Deluxe doesn't even show up.

I am rooted and I can't get it on my phone. I have bought it and installed it on my tablet, I am trying to copy the files onto the phone to see if it works.
I moved the APK onto the phone and installed it, but when it tries to download the 50 MB of data required, it sits there stuck at 0% complete forever.
*EDIT* OK, that worked. If anyone has a tablet or presumably another phone and you can purchase it on that, do so and install it, then let it download all the files. Then copy the .apk onto your E4GT (I used the free appsaver app from the market to back it up) and install it. Then browse to /Android/data/ on the first device and copy the entire folder called "com.ea.simcitydeluxe_na" into the same directory on the E4GT and voila!
Seems to be working fine here with that work around so far, not played it, but it loads up a scenario and lets me scroll around without complaining so far...
Any advice for those of us who only have access to one Android device? I'm playing with the build.prop settings to imitate some other device but nothing is really happening. This is turning into way too much work for a game that I probably won't even play.
Have the same problem with the football game that was for 10cents, not showing up fir the EPIC Touch

Since upgrading to JB 4.2 the Amazon app store keeps having me authenticate periodically. I assume that this is related to the JB update, but I haven't seen anyone else mention this issue. Particularly when accessing Tweetcaster Pro is when I see the issue start, but then no other app works correctly.
Just for some background, I wiped my phone yesterday with 4.1 and then installed 4.2. I have the latest version of the app store and have tried clearing cache/data, uninstalling, reinstalling. No help.
So I'd like to know if anyone else is seeing this or if it is just me.
Thanks
Probably just needs a compatibility update, same as every other app that isn't working on 4.2 right now.

Thanks. I figured that was the case. I would just be more at ease knowing I wasn't alone.
Same behaviour here after updating to 4.2. Hope Amazon is fast with a fix...
Same here - driving me freaking crazy
You may have to redownload the Appstore apk, there seems to be one with a new layout now.

It kept asking me to sign in and when I did it was saying wrong password even though I knew it was right. I only had about 3 paid apps for free that I still used so I just uninstalled them and purchased from the play store and uninstalled the amazon app store.....haven't "bought" a free app in like 3 months...the selection is getting to be crap

Sorry for you, but glad to hear it. I ended up calling them today and they hadn't heard of any issues. I suspect they know now.
I'm getting the same thing too although my login credentials actually work. The one thing I haven't checked is whether or not these logins are creating a new device authorization every time.
I completely wiped my phone before upgrading to 4.2 and Amazon App store and Verizon FiOS Mobile Remote are the only two apps with issues.
I have the same issue with Forum Runner. Every time I close the app I get signed out and need to re-login every time I open it back up. So annoying but I'm guessing its a 4.2 update thing. I've deleted it and re-downloaded it and it made no difference.

Unfortunately, I have a few FAOTD that I use frequently, so I have to keep it installed.

They explained to me that everytime you login, it creates a new device instance. They limit it at 25. I hit that mark yesterday.

I've read that in the past, but it's never been true for me. I use TubeMate from Amazon and dont need the Amazon Market installed to do so.
Having the same issue with the app store. Just got off the phone with amazon and they are aware of the problem and are working on a fix now

Ouch! I just logged in to my Amazon account and saw all the "Nexus 7 xx" devices that were registered.
Thanks for the heads up. I deregistered all the new devices.
This worked for me
From another forum I found this solution to work:
1) Delete Google Account
2) Reboot Device
3) Reactivate Google Account
4) Log on with Amazon Appstore App
All apps load and run without need to log on each time now.
I also deleted excess Amazon devices as noted above.

do you have microSD card with "Sygic" folder? if the answer is yes, move this folder to the internal storage and try again.

I have Sygic working on my G3 just fine, but i had to move the folder to the internal, because the idiots from google made those limitations for sd cards.
was hoping it would help you too.

Lately when I've been asking Google to set a reminder it ALWAYS says "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that" and shows the attached screen in my attachment
Hey Google, remind me at 3pm of my haircut. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Hey, Google remind me at 4pm to put on pants.. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Download the assistant app. I know it sounds dumb but try it. I had a similar issue when I had my pixel 3 the one that comes on it sux u need the full one from the playstore. a Few built in apps are like that and it's stupid to me.

I downloaded Google Assistant from the Play Store. When I say Hey Google it appears to still open the stock google assistant app and gives me the same result when asking it to do something.
If I manually open the Google assistant app that I downloaded as soon as I say Hey Google it just stops doing anything

Judging by the screenshot you didn't set it up fully yet. You're still showing the "GET STARTED" option. Did you go through all the steps to 100% complete the setup? That's what it looks like you need to do.

That getting started comes up every time. I've had this phone for almost a year and used Google Assistant all of the time. It's just recently that this issue has come up.
I'm going to uninstall what I can related to Google Assistant, clear data of what I can't and sign out of everything and then sign back in and see if that helps
EDIT: uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing data from some Google services, signed of my Google account linked to assistance and verything seems to be fine now
Back to doing it again...fml
You could try booting to safe mode and see if the problem persists. If not, there's an app interfering. If the problem is still there in safe mode, then that's something glitchy about the Google setup.

I haven't tried the reboot into safe mode yet. Sometimes Google Assistant gets its crap together and works fine and then other times it needs more information. At this moment it's working again. Once it acts up I'm going to do the safe mode way and see if that works.
