Is it just me, or has everyone else's Twitter app reverted back to the old UI?
I think that it happened after the last play store update. I am referring of course to the 2014 edition having (at least initially) the new Twitter tablet interface.
Thanks!

Got the tablet version back by uninstalling the updates to the app under application management. Must be a disconnect between the Play store and the version on our devices.

Can't sign in
I just got my note 2014 from my lovely wife. For some reason I get the message "error occurred when signing in please try again later" when trying to sign in. I went to application management and I cannot uninstall the app and the app in the market says it isn't compatible with this version. I also updated the app from the Samsung apps app.What can I do so I can sign in? I'm at a loss.

Google Play Store is asking me to update an app called Google Pinyin. It is an input method (apparently primarily for Chinese characters) but I can't figure out why it is on my Nexus 7. Anyone familiar with it? Could it be connected to 7Note?

Same thing happened to mine. I had pinyin activated on my phone, so i'm thinking the settings got transfer over?

Pinyin is mainly used in China, I think for EN/EU users, you don't have to update this, and you could even uninstall update/disable it.
its a ASUS thing, they someone managed to put this IME on a supposedly clean Nexus rom
it got under the radar because it is blessed by google
disable it
I just uninstalled updates and disabled it. It is of no use to me for I don't speak Chinese.
Did you guys install the PDANet Drivers or use the Google Nexus 7 ToolKit v1.1 to root and/or unlock? My Nexus 7 did not have Pinyin on it until I tried to root it tonight and it didn't show up until I installed the PDANet Drivers and the Google Nexus 7 Toolkit.
Hooray for Titanium Backup! Friendly bloatware remover! :]
I had that and a Korean keyboard pre-installed.. both are long gone...
This randomly downloaded itself onto my nexus 7 this morning - understock there is no way to uninstall it - thank god for root.
You did nt happen to install the London olympic app did you? That's when I noticed it was there

It was one of the first apps I uninstalled as soon as I had root!

I doubt it, i didn't install the olympic app and i had korean keyboard and pinyin.
I also had a Japanese IME, began with an "i" but I can't remember the name.
Uninstalled all 3 via Titanium Backup.
I am not rooted and have not installed any Olympic apps. I did install 7Note with Mezac. Did not notice Pinyin until after that thus my reason for asking if they were connected. In all fairness, however, I was not looking for Pinyin and wouldn't have noticed it if it hadn't started asking to be updated. For all I know, it could have come out of the box with Pinyin installed as some have suggested. I have disabled it with no adverse affects thus far.

Pinyin!?
Got both NBC "London Olympics" apps and presto, there was the Pinyin app.
Bah!
Its just showing up for everyone yesterday at around the time you downloaded any app from the app store, it just threw that update in there, no matter what you installed. I am not rooted and cant get rid of it. Uninstalling the update erases it from the app drawer, but as soon as i download an app or update from Play, its back....
Like I mentioned on the thread in the QA forum , it's to save Google from having to manage localised versions of firmware images. You know, the world doesn't revolve around English as the only language. And no, Asus didn't put Pinyin there, Google did, because the app is by Google themselves. So stop getting all emo and xenophobic.
I actually use Google Pinyin myself, so I'm actually glad it's there by default.
It came on mine stock.It was there before I installed anything.Mine is korean however.

Chinese, Japanese and Korean IME ALL came with the stock ROM.
I actually have other issues, i don't mind google puts useless ime in the rom, but it removes/hides my books, magazines, movies when detecting my location (outside of usa)... sign...

Couple questions.....does Play store say it can be updated? If so, what does it say when it fails? Have you tried uninstalling the app and then re-installing the new version?
I checked and have the newest version on my tablet already so must have updated automatically without issue.
Random ideas out of my hind quarters: clear app data on samsung account stuff; remove/re-add samsung account; search forum; reset device if nothing works.
Looks like Wallet has a nice update and so far I do not see any nag screens for rooted devices either. Check it out and let others know what your results are..
Links to thread is here and direct link to file is here
Not too shabby and it seems to work on more devices now. Tested on an S4 for Tmobile and it also loads up. Did not test purchases though
I was actually looking for the apk. Thanks! I had to clear app data to get it to start up. I kept getting forced closes. It's up and running now. Will test payments out soon.

glad I could help and I like the direction they are going with the app and the ability to add "loyalty programs"
What is the version number of the update?
Edit: Nevermind. My wallet app just updated from the play store.

They finally added the option to disable pin lock. Now Wallet is finally convenient!

The Google Search app just got a minor update, and amongst the changes are several new GEL features; a new "import from existing launchers" feature when first installed, and it now keeps the far right dock item on tablets. Its now also labeled as "Google Now Launcher" in the 'Home' tab in settings.
This all seems to be related to GEL on the Play Store, anyone agree?
The Google Now Launcher has officially launched in the play store, making my hypothesis correct. About time too! Anyways I think we should all thank the beta testers, you Nexus 5 users really did help!

I am sure it was mostly bug fixes and the things you listed above. Possible battery improvements aswell?

I haven't noticed any, but it seems to have brought a new bug, where pressing home when in the app drawer drops some FPS

Of Google Search? I'm using an outdated GoogleHome.apk anyway; since it doesn't actually do anything other than direct all action to Google Now

Yeah I don't see why nexus 5 owners would need an import feature if it's already the stock launcher, obviously coming soon to the play store

Thanks for the heads up. It wasn't listed as an app that needed updating but I'm guessing because it was side loaded. And strangely, I couldn't find it in a search of the App Store, I had to locate another Google app and hit the "Also by..." button.
I'm not seeing any issues so far but I am tempted to uninstall it and reinstall from the Market just in case I have any Market link issues in the future.

So, set up my new tab pro 12.2 last night. This morning it seems like it is still downloading stuff.
When I look at data usage it looks like it has downloaded a total of 3G, about 2.25G just from google play store!
I know I don't have THAT many apps installed, and when I open the play store it doesn't look like it is doing anything.
Any ideas??
I got the 10.1 a few days ago. Today all of a sudden I got the same thing - but it was from the Samsung app store. It was all the Hanson office suite program files. I thought it was odd, myself.

Same here. Got new 10 in. yesterday and got it from both ends. Samsung downloaded a bunch of stuff then Google updated all the gapps crap b4 I got in to turn off auto update. After I play with it awhile, I will factory restore, TWRP recovery, and get rid of a bunch of bloat. I didn't sign up on the Samsung apps yet. Don't know if I want another user I'd to track. I rooted already. Am going to install Xposed framework.

For a new Tab after unboxing and setup is that normal, Google play will update all apps to the newest version.
After this update disable the autoupdate check by all google apps, so Google will ask you for the update.
If you make a factory reset or full wipe it will this do again.
For Samsung apps, this will only update if you create a Samsung account.
Delete your SAM account.
If you don't let it connect to wifi, you can turn off autoupdate, then login.
