I got the 2.3.4 update earlier and was wondering what's new besides the autobrightness fix
Also I now have 2 Music Unlimited's, what's up with that?
and I don't know if it was before, but a lot of the bloatware now seems to be uninstallable. Does that mean it can now be uninstalled and we can still update afterwards?
I haven't updated my phone yet
But regarding two music unlimited
They released a 180 days free trail for music unlimited so my guess is the other one is the trail version

No they both go to a web page where you can sign up for the trial or buy the subscription.
One is 1.0.1 though and the other 1.0.2
I just find it weird that they didn't get rid of the old one. Plus the icons are different
On my phone I have one called "Music Unlimited" and another called "Video Unlimited".

Dammit... I just recently paid for the no root screenshot app... o_o... am I screwed out of this update since my Xperia PLAY is a Rogers-branded R800a that's technically on AT&T instead of Rogers? I could probably find the firmware and easily flash it... but I've made a lot of progress in games that I don't wanna lose.
720p recording already piqued my interest... now there's screenshots and uninstallable bloatware?! DO WANT.

Here you will find .49 cent apps.
You don't actually have to download anything to update your market: Just go into settings/applications and find the market app. Simply delete the data (only), and the next time you open your Market, it'll upgrade itself. Hope this helps.
deleted data. got tha carter iv for $.25 to celebrate.
Not true for everyone. Many people, like myself, just got an updated TOS agreement. My market was 3.4.4 but the new one is 3.4.6.
youre right, mine is still 3.4.4. the deals are still there, so i dont care

Are you saying the "delete data trick" didn't work for you here? Cuz that's weird: it worked perfectly on my phone (always have used this to get the latest market), and I do have 3.4.6.... The only question I would ask is: Are you on a gbread Rom or an ICS Rom? (I'm running ICS....maybe 3.4.4 is the latest for Gingerbread, and 3.4.6 is only for those on ICS?) Just a guess.
I also got the updated TOS, the deals are there, and I'm still on 3.4.4. The icon and the app still say "Market".

Yes. It looks like 3.4.6 might be for ICS only but that doesn't make sense because the market is no longer. They would at least change the name and icon even on gingerbread.
I installed the Ops apk and it's definitely the new icon and branding, however, it FCs nonstop ever since tried buying an app.

When I did the 'delete data' thing, my Market app/icon completely disappeared and I got the new "Play Store" app/icon automatically...so that method DOES work for some,(just fyi)
So this market basically broke the $hit out of my market. I installed this version, it worked fine til I bought an app in the store. Ever since then it just FCs immediately. It never intsalled the app, apps installed from the web market do nto install. I uninstalled/deleted the 3.4.6 version and reinstalled the 3.4.4 version and it is still force closing as well. any ideas?
I'm not too worried, I have tomorrow off and this will give me motivation to try the ICS leaks, I'm still on caulkalins last GB rom.
Updated Google Now today, and I have a few bugs.
The worst bug: When I tap on the menu key, the menu only quickly flashes.
I cannot get a card back if I accidentally swipe it away.
I cannot remove a stock from the stock card.
The vioce search is not working.
Also, although not a bug, the widget design looks too simplistic, displays minimal info (guess Google wants us to come inside), takes up only 4x3 space as a 4x4 widget. If I shrink it down to 4x3, then it will take 4x2 space, and so on. Drives me nuts.
As their flagship app, I am surprised at the low quality of this major update.
Anyone else care to share their feedback?
Maybe uninstall and re-install? Maybe try a reboot? I'm on rooted bone stock and it works fine.. I think as more cards come up the widget will use more space hence the large 4x4 space required .. Voice search working fine as well as the menu key long press
Thanks for the input. I am on stock rom and have rebooted to make sure I have a clean start. I will try un install and reinstall.

After you use long press to enter Google now, could you tap on menu again and see what happens? Mine will only flash the menu. Definitely a bug.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled it. Still the same bugs. I have also seen the same complaints in the play store now.
I finally had to uninstall the update and everything is fine again. Saw a lot of similar complaints on Google play. Can't believe this comes from Google and their flagship app.

Yea.. You're right.. Once in GN the menu is borked..
Yes, my menu button in Google Now is not working either, just to confirm and complain. WTF. Such an obvious mishap. I have not seen other phones complain about it though.
my google now is working as it was before as far as i can tell. I do a long press on the menu button on the 'button' next to the home key or long press on the google search bar to bring me into google now. Then I press the menu key which brings me to settings page
The settings page has the Google Now at the top, then voice, then phone search, then privacy and accounts. Everything works fine running cleanrom 4.0.5
My menu also flashes and then goes away.

The only work around is clicking the weather card in Google now and pressing settings. It doesn't flash then.

Same thing happening on my rooted note 2.
On Google Play it looks like most of the issues with the menu key are from GN2 users, except one report from a S3 Mini user.
The other major complaint is that the weather hourly slider is gone after the update.
And the widget sizing problem is popular too.
I cleared data in app settings menu for Google search and all is well.

I am downloading an AT&T OTA right now. It is reported to be the NK3 update. So far no details, but it is bigger than the other updates being reported by other carriers, but it could be a combination of other updates.
It is showing as 223.71 MB
My Note 4 is a true AT&T phone, not an international or T-Mo version.
More as I get it, but its DL'ing kinda slow. (might be the netflix movie I am watching on another device on my network..oops!)

Yeah please post update if you find out what exactly is included in that OTA
Picking up speed now that my movie has paused
Note... I had to change the date in my settings to trigger the update. I checked for an update late yesterday, and it only lets you try once every 24 hours.
Its installing now... it seems to stick a few times (55% seemed to be there forever) but it is moving on. Looks like about 5+ minutes of install time after download.

Did the OTA just showed on your screen or did you manually look for updates? I hope it shows some sort of changelog, can't find anything online about it so far...

I had seen a possible update from a forum post on another site. ... so I forced the check for update.
It just finished and there is no change log associated with it. I'll keep playing with it and let you know what I find. The recent apps button seems slightly faster, but I might be imagining it.
Other updates (the international devices) have indicated battery performance improvements, and reduced lag on the recent apps button. Not sure what else. But those updates were smaller in size even combined.
Just got and installed the update...unfortunately no change log of any sort. Phone seems a bit more responsive after bit otherwise no changes I have noticed yet.
Also included the gear vr software
With these updates in the works someone should be uploading new stock images and associated files, no? There may be some exploit for root introduced that was not present in the earlier version.

And I know they're just coming in, just something to keep in mind. Someone with more skill/experience may want to chime in.
Stumbled on a app DSMLawmo that I hadn't seen before... or maybe it was there and I missed it.
But also the Gear VR Apps are now installed... I KNOW they are new.
IMS Settings and IMSLogger+... are these new. They look it.
(those apps are not in the app drawer, but under the app manager "all" tab)
In addition there is an option to backup your SMS's on AT&T's cloud .. is that new? Or am I looking too hard.
Did we have evernote installed before? It looks like it is baked in as bloatware now.
I really hope this is going to fix my horrible battery life...
"horrible battery life" is a matter of opinion and circumstances. It might make it better, but it can't fix things that it isn't causing.

DSMLawmo is on my AT&T Note 4, update is currently downloading too. I don't see IMS Settings or IMSLogger+, so those are new for sure.
No option to back up SMS's.
Don't remember about Evernote, I use it anyways so it may have either been installed by default or my Google account pulled it down.

You can no longer uninstall Evernote... so its baked in now.
I find myself reaching for the recent apps button now.... that was a quickly formed habit... and using it to flip back to an app I was using. Right now I am playing candy crush (sorry, I'm weak) and checking gmail, skypeing with my wife at work; all with a flip of the recent apps button.
Just installed it! The only difference I've seen is that Evernote is there and I can't uninstall it or disable it... I don't see any other apps, settings, etc

I know... bu there was too much of a delay before the update. I am more pleased now, but hopefully they bring it in a bit more in lollipop.
Edit... I am beginning to even forget there was any lag.... It is now very usable.
Recents key is hella faster now.
That was my only gripe...that delay. Checking for update now.
....and downloading. NIICE!
Wtf...as it downloads I'm noticing the recent is faster already. Damn you brain...

If anyone else does not seem to see an up date go to Settings -> General -> About Device -> Software Updates -> Tap check for updates -> You will then start downloading the update as long as you are connected to a wireless network.
So ever since I got the watch, every day (ie resets once a day) it shows me a stock quote from rl (Ralph Lauren Corp), the watch is the one generating the card because it happens before it synchs with the phone.
The thing is I don't have any stocks entered. I have never had one entered. I don't follow any stocks. This quote seems to be baked into the watch. Anyone else seen it and know what gets rid of it?
Try going to Google.com/finance and see if it is in your portfolio for some reason. If it is, delete it. If it isn't, then I have no idea.
Looks clean, no portfolio.

Pfft... I was guessing more along the lines that Ralph Lauren paid google to be the default demo stock for the stock app. Anyways it still pops up despite not being in any of the areas listed above.
Try opening the Google app on your phone, go to customize and see if its listed as a stock there.
If I were you I would at least attempt clearing all data from Android wear app in settings and doing a factory reset on the 360 itself. Is your 360 on latest 5.1.1?

It's not in 'Your Places' anymore. It's 3 line items down from there in
'Offline Areas'.
Choose that and use the blue + Add button on lower right to add areas.
If not there or doesn't work, choose Maps in Apps and clear Data.
If that doesn't work, go back to that place and uninstall updates.
Then go back to Play Store and get Maps update. Hope this works good
