On maps.google.com, you can specifically set your home and work addresses under "my places". Then configure your Google Now settings to always show the card. That should help.

Maps.google.com,
Cant set a thing,only search but no set option on locations :s

You can set home and work through the maps app on Android too, that's how I did it. Open up the app, tap on the Maps dropdown in the top left and select Location History. That'll show your work and home and when you hit settings from in there you can set them to an address.

Well i gott....how i did it wa just browse to google.com... tick the desktop version sign in and go to account at the account i scrolled to lattitufr and opend dashboard... and there it was!!!!!

[Q] Carrier Name failure

The Carrier Name on my friends Galaxy Nexus is showing additionally to the real name this string '@@@' (see image below). It is running ICS 4.0.2
Does anybody know where this could possibly come from?

Sigh... this was mentioned at least once before. It's most likely a malware app.

I know and i tried to search for this in the forums but to no avail. guess the string '@@@' is hard to search(find). Google totally ignores it too

I'll see if I can find the thread. If not, check the apps. See what third party apps have been downloaded and then we can give more insight to what it might be.

Finally found it. Phew. I don't see an answer though. I'm assuming it was a third party application.

I had this as well but it seemed to go away on its own after an hour or so? Only happened once though....
Something similar happened once where ROGERS became @OGERS on the phone. It cleared after I rebooted.
No malware
Stock unlocked/unrooted 4.0.1 yakjuux
I sent the screenshot I took to Google, but as expected, they didnt care
A simple reboot was not enough.
He had to remove the battery as well. This fixed it and the characters did not reappear since than.

ICS style task switching
I use an app for this, which name is "Perfect task switcher".
It shows a preview of running apps (only stock based roms, not in CM7)
You can set it to show only running tasks.
I tried a lot of task manager, switcher apps. And I found that the best .I think you like it.
Here is the market link:

HOX Drive Mode modification

Hey people as we all know HOX has a beautiful drive mode.In that we also Google Maps navigation.I my self in my HOX use copilot navigation.I was wondering if there is some way to replace in the drive mode the Google maps navigation with the copilot navigation?
Thanks in advance for your help

It is possible, but for that, the reference in Google Maps' apk needs to be changed. And even then it might not work too wel

You can add any app you want. Just go into the stock music player hit settings and add app. Select your desired navi app go into car app and the navi app will be displayed in the car app... App..

Stop Google updates

I know this question has been posed before but...its a shame to be on these great custom roms such as Project x and Jv4 and have themed versions of Google apks like playstore and you tube, only to be borked by Google play services that updates to current versions! Can this be averted at all, I heard that the process can be froze via Titanium backup? Any help would be great thanks. ...

Uncheck Automatic Updates in Play Store settings... That should be all you need to do.

Could it possibly be from having google sign on syncing app data?

Yeah that might do it too, I never do that... I just back the important ones up with Ti Backup. Also try going into the App Manager, hit menu button, then "Clear App Preferences". And if it asks you when installing an app don't hit Verify and Install. It checks the Play Store when you do that.
Ok tried all the above even after a full restore unticked all do not update and sync, and uninstall updates and it just bounces right back to new versions of play store, YouTube and google voice, currently looking for correct process to freeze possibly with TB

They push them through Google Play Services now, you can't stop it, you just have to find a themed version of the latest.
