I just feel like if they were going to change anything it should have been in a way that matched ICS a little better

WTF!? "Play"?
Got this Update a few minutes ago.
Is Google kidding me?
What was wrong with "Market"?

Why is it not matching ICS? The icon and app pages are halo light and overview in halo dark. It matches perfectly (if you saw the android developer site.)
Though I do miss Andy. They need to put him somewhere in the market.

"Market" is not a name

Just got it as well.
I like how they replaced everything with 'Play'.
Instead of 'Read The Hunger Games' it's 'Play The Hunger Games'
Hopefully they'll update something worthwhile soon so I can 'Play with Google Wallet' instead of having it broken.

im ok with the 'play' name its the icon/logo i dont like, market was prettier

I recall reading a blog mentioning that the term "app" was patented by you-know-who. They even had an issue with Amazon's store because it had the same name.

Bit off topic, but does anyone of the apk for Play Music? I hear that it's fairly different to the stock player, well and I can't get it here in Germany.
Thanks!
EDIT: NVM, market enabler does the trick

To receive it, just clean market cache (only cache is enough), reboot, open market (wait a bit,in background it should download the update), exit, reopen and bam you will receive the play store...its confirmed to work

Malware on my phone? :(

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.

Someone with GSM 4.1.1 OTA version check please

Can someone who got the official OTA for their GSM Galaxy Nexus please check for me
1. Does the Google Music app have the announced ability to save a ringtone using the triangle pop up menu of a song?
2. What version number of Google Music shipped? I'm looking for a number higher than 4.3.605.392829...which does NOT have this feature.
Thanks in advance
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

1. Nope, not as far as I can tell.
2. v4.3.605.398337

Yep I've seen both versions and neither has the ringtone editing feature. This means that either Google is holding back this part of Jelly Bean or there was a delivery mess up because it is listed in the change log but no one seems to have it..... Regardless of how they got JB.

Cheers all looks to work OK apart from the weather. Presume it needs something from touchwhiz for that to work?

so does it work with Sony xav-601bt ?

I dont have such a fancy car head unit to be able to try that. I cant see any references to mirrorlink in any of the setting screens either.

All works via Bluetooth. Can't get weather to work but everything else is ok

i will test the app with mirrorlink and the audio car unit sony xav601bt on saturday. i will give you feedback...
the accuweather does not work. maybe its because of missing samsung rom components

This app installed and looks great on my GN. But this app doesn't look like it likes the on screen home and back buttons. I just got my GN from the play store so I am a bit of a noob to the GS. Anyway I can make the on screen home keys go into landscape or just go away?

How did you manage to connect your Note 2 to the MirrorLink??? When I try to connect my Note (1) with the DriveLink app, I only get "USB Device not supported" or "Reestablish the connection to your smartphone"?
Do you have the stock ROM used?
Thanks!

I have a galaxy nexus running 4.1.1 bootloader unlocked and rooted. I have installed the TM server app files from a few posts up and the newest version of drive link app. I am still getting the "usb device not supported". Do you have to have usb tether working to be able to make this work? Anything else that I could try. I have had the sony xav601bt for a while and want to get this working. Thanks in advance.

When are all the apps going to be compatible with Jelly Bean?

Its starting to aggravate me that my old phone can do more than this tablet. Is jb really that new? No one prepared for it's release? Come on! Love my tablet but wtf is the hold up with the apps not being ready to use like td bank and Amazon mobile to name a few.

I must agree to a certain extent. NatWest banking app fails on jellybean, it just won't show my balance. For the most part however, apps work fine.

Unlikely has anything to do with JB. Most likely the permissions listed below are incompatible with the Nexus 7.
Amazon Mobile requires these permissions:
Your location
coarse (network-based) location, fine (GPS) location
Network communication
full Internet access, view network state
Hardware controls
take pictures, control vibrator

TD Bank (US) requires these permissions:

Amazon mobile in the play store says its not compatible with the nexus 7. but If you sideload it it works fine. using it right now on my device.
Didnt try the td bank app but try sideloading that one as well. It might work.

Sent From Nexus 7 XDA Premium HD App

Yes I keep encountering apps that don't appear in the market. They may very well work, but won't appear for nexus 7/jelly bean.
Some examples?
linephone
GT racing Hyundai edition
And there are lots of others that I can't think of now. Since owning this nexus (since launch date) I've probably encountered 30-40 apps that aren't available on the market. And I know there are lots others. Didn't really bother me at first, but I thought with how much this has sold that developers would issue (what would be minor most of the time) updates so these would be available.
And I've never bothered looking into it, but I know obviously you can keep an apk when downloading it from the market and others have posted them on various websites for others in situations like this, however my understanding is with jb it encrypts them so this is no longer possible with jb.
Because sometimes I get determined and go hunting for an apk and it turns out to be two versions behind or whatever. Is there a way to download apks even on jb? Is there an app that can do this? I'm not saying this regarding pirating, just another means of trying to get apps that are free that would more than likely work on this device.
