Does anyone have the older google maps apk, possibly from last couple of months? The most recent one is crap. I'm on vacation and it just told me to literally turn into a 1 way highway. And its keeping my phone from going into deep sleep, even when uninstall, I have to reboot to fully get rid of it. Any help is appreciated

I'm over Google Navigation. The last few updates have ruined it. It won't warn you when your turn is coming, it won't reroute almost ever, and it wants to send me halfway around the city to get somewhere ten minutes away. So, with that rant out of the way, what's the best third party Nav app?

I use Locus Pro, its more detailed than Google maps ans has a lot of different features including navigation. It works really well for me. There is also a free version although I paid for the pro version

Ive used and loved Sygic on my HD2. But i would get FC on ICS on my SGS2. But i think its cause i tried using the same sd data that i had for my HD2. I havent gotten around to redownloading it though.

I like Waze, but with my current ROM, it's crashing. But now Google Maps is working well again. Their new voice sounds great and gives plenty of early warning prompts. I think part of my previous problems were related to bad GPS performance from my ROM.

So mysterious bookmarks keep appearing on my home screen every other day. I sort of ignored it at first but now there's one called SMS spy and something about location and now I'm creeped out. Anyone have any ideas? These don't show up in application cache or anything, just on my home screen.

I have never heard of that before. What happens when you click it? Does it direct you to a website?
I would also browse your root folder directories and see if you can find anything out of the ordinary.

Shift apps/malware for sure. Uncheck "install from unknown sources" and try to track down the rogue app. If you can't find anything, I'd factory reset. Don't wanna mess around with that stuff.

what have you been installing? any apps that aren't allowed to be discussed here can cause things like that.
Bro if your gonna download apps illegally, at least get a bunch of security applications, like 6 of em for 6 different opinions.
Speaking of malicious, Has anyone got a warning about Super user being malicious??? That is what both of security applications said. And I got it from the play store.

Antivirus on anything is pointless if you're doing something completely legit.

Some apps from the market will do that. If you are getting any of the air push ads then that's what it is. Some apps are in the market that will do that. Best to find which app it is and delete it. That is from my experience.

Yeah but obviously a game or app that seems too good to be true is where malware is found. Not in angry birds. Like I said totally legit.

A few apps from the play store will add bookmarks to your home screen. TBH I can't name any off the top of my head but has happened on my GF android before. Chances are an app you have downloaded has been developed by the same people who make this "SMS spy" app. I would go through installed Apps and note who the publisher is and see if any are the same as the SMS spy app.
Chances are its just pain in arse advertising.

As indyred99 said. Some apps allow air push ads. Download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.byq.airblocker from the play store. (Must be rooted) reboot, then they will stop.
Also, only install apps from the play store.

How do i get that stupid app back? I just deleted it this mrng lol
Just pull the apk from some stock non-debloated ROM.
I am more interested in knowing what system checks it runs before letting you rent/watch/download movies. I restored mine from TiB and when I launch it, it opens, circles and the opens again and cirles again. Never force closes or fully loads up. Almost like an app bootloop if you catch my drift.
In my Googling I found that in the older Vibrant, Media Hub would run a series of system checks before it would let you watch anything. I am wondering what it checks for (probably Root like Google Movies and Vudu) but what else? I have always just deleted it but for some reason this time I froze it.

Also you can re-install the ROM you have without wiping anything. I will just incase go back to Odin Stock.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I wonder if this will be something we can download and transfer to another device, or stream only.
Here's the apk guys. Just copy it to /ssystem/app/ and change the permissions to match other files in the same folder.
Also I don't know if it will work but I know paid version of SU lets you temp unroot. I think ota rootkeeper does as well.
So do I get to keep the movie or just watchable on that day?

I rooted my vibrant and never had an issue with media hub unlike google video which had to be tricked with terminal emulator to get it to work.
I rooted my gs3 and media hub works fine so far.

Sweet then. What ROM are you on btw?
I cannot get my Media Hub to stay open. It just loops and never fully stays on. I've restored, wiped apps data, replaced, cleared /cache and /dalvik and fixed permissions, defrosted all the Samsung apps and the dang app won't stay open.
I'm running Wanam's LH2 with Morfic's Alpha7b atm but think I might Odin to do a little house cleaning. Any ideas anyone?
So for some strange reason my SGS3 doesnt show up as a device in google play on my pc, called google we did everything possible even a factory reset and nothing, any ideas?

Have you accepted the terms from the Play app on the phone yet? And have you installed any apps from the Play on your phone? That's about all I can think of..
EDIT: Not to degrade your knowledge, but you do have the same google account linked to the s3?

It is a little worrying that it seems like a Google Settings app just appears without any interaction from me...can't even see which Google app got updated?
It just appeared on my device too...
It has here as well, how very odd!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Ok, after some brief digging around. It appears it is part of Google Play Services.. Which before no one was entirely sure what it was used for, it appears we now have an idea.. To use as a gateway for Google to install their loot on your device at will.
That app is the only one I have open.. As you see, Google Play Services is responsible for it.

Seems to have a lot of perms too.
Yup, if you hold and drag to App Info it shows as Google Play Services.
The strange part of it is.. I have my Nexus 10 sitting right in front of me and that app doesn't exist and I have no updates.
I was wondering why my internet connection lagged so bad to the point where I couldn't do anything.. Then this settings app showed up.
