New User: question and some fixes - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi Guys, I am new to Galaxy S3,
So far my experience has been so so. When I have been having problems with the music app, for example, once playing a track i cant pause, or if it is paused, i cant resume, app the kind of crashes. Is this normal
Also when i have hardware overlay disabled for play dead trigger, i cant watch hd youtube vidoes in full screen, the picture freezes.
any suggestions. I have tried 3 hard resets now and sprint wont replace it beacuse i cant recreate the music problem in store and they say youtube is app issue not phone

It's this Google Music? This is an issue that started for me with the most recent update to Google Music a couple of weeks ago. I rolled back to an earlier version using titanium backup and the problem is gone. Might have to wait for another update our use a different player.

nah its the stock app.

Both of those are problems with the apps not the phone or jellybean.
Contact app developer (doubt it'll do anything) but it is what it is.

After all the app updates yesterday getting a sign-in error for my gmail

But all my services are working, gmail, play, gtalk, plus and everything is syncing.
What could be causing it? Getting the triangle notification drop down saying sign in error and my pw is incorrect (but it is correct) and I don't know what app because it is not saying what app.
Just started happening after the numerous app updates from yesterday/today.
I'm getting the same thing, I think they had a bug in their release.
I'm seeing the same thing after taking updates this afternoon.
Stock HTC EVO 3D on Sprint.
It went away when I restarted my phone yesterday but came back today I wonder what app is causing it

My father in law had the same issue on his droid this morning. I had him clear data and launch app again but it disnt work, thanks for posting this.
I think it is Google+, I un installed it and never got the notice. Just installed it again from play and got the notice again.

I thought was google+ too, but after uninstall it and reboot, after a couple of hours, same error...it's something with g-apps in general.

I have a XPeria Play
Great I am not alone. For example see one there I was wondering if I had my Gmail account hacked and password changed. But like you all, all of my accounts synced. Still don't know what it is but it started today after I opened the play store.

I would say delete Gmail.... Download from market and see if it helps.

Same issue here. I had it one other time, yesterday I think, rebooted my phone and thought it was taken care of. Today it's suddenly back again.
Somewhat a relief to realize I'm not the only one.
BTW, I'm using a AT&T Skyrocket...found this thread through search.
Well its not Google+, I have it uninstalled and got the error today, but I don't get the error as often with it installed.

Fun stuff (Google Play Services)

So, I ws playing around in Titanium and came across 'Googe Play Services' app. After a second or two in Google Search,I came upon the APK in the actual market. (Play store) I decided to just see why/what it is doing there. Google already told me what it was.... I was curious.
The fun part was the comments. If you had a few seconds, check out the comments. Add your own..
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms
Sorry if this was mentioned previously. I was genuinely amused.
Sent from my SPH-L710 Thanks Machine.
Could someone please actually tell me what this is?
My phone was not wanting to download or update any apps. I restarted my phone and I got a notification saying I had an app update. I clicked it and it took me to that app in the play store.
I assumed I had gotten a virus or something and was trying to be phished using this app. So I decided not to download it and did a factory reset on my phone.
After that my phone worked fine and it never popped up again. I made sure and installed an anti virus though.

Google Play Services allows applications that aren't directly tied in with Google Play to use Play to purchase in-app upgrades, etc.

So why did it pop up out of nowhere? Is it because I had an app installed that needed it?

Very odd, I've had the game on mine for about 3 weeks. and have never had an issue. I would un-install the game again and then go into the Android/data directory with your file manager and remove the com.ea.games.nfs13_na directory. Then re-install the game. It will have to re-download data. Hope this helps.
Strange. Plays fine here on Jb.. But if u find a free apk online it doesn't play.. Just as u described will happen.. Do as other had stated and seen if works.

Would re download make sure your on wifi too. I had a game not work when using mobile data.

Issue was a bad update...
There was an update that EA released which caused the game to malfunction. Apparently as of today the issue has been resolved(Check the attached screenshot).
Re-download over wifi now that it has been "fixed" and try again. If not, email the address that's listed in my screenshot.

[Q] Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher?

Hello,
Has anyone tried the Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher released for Nexus 5 on their Note 8.0?
"To install the new launcher (Google Home), you’ll have to install 3 different apps – Google Play Services 4.0, Google Search, and the Google Home .apk. "
If so, is it working ok? how's the performance with the new launcher?
Thanks for your help :good:
I'm currently using the launcher as my daily driver, and aside from a couple bugs (app drawer seems crowded, and the keyboard pops up randomly upon returning to home), it runs rather well. I'm enjoying this psuedo-Kitkat UI!

Could you please post some screenshots? Thanks!
Sorry, I cant. When I try to upload screenshots, it says it has the incorrect JPEG file extension. Can you download the launcher?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using XDA Premium HD app
Wrong section..sorry..
The launcher runs fine. and looks ok,
I have gotten too used to touchwiz to like anything else,
however, this can also be used as an app i.e hitting back button does not close it.In that way it provides most of its functionality on demand and serves good for hands-free operation when needed, though s-voice did that kinda similar too.
App Drawer does not have any menus or settings so nothing much to write home about there, other than it's obviously different.
I have it set up minimally for reading stuff only (news and books) and here are screen shots.

I would first try a stock FW
If the problem still exists the device is faulty.

Install recovery and try fixing permissions, should work after that.
If not, reflash original sony fw with flashtool.
