I just bought the note today and I can't find apps like gmail and hangouts in the apps drawer.
I can only start them from play store or from notifications if I vet a message for example. I can also start them from the " multitasking menu". How can I get the device to show these apps like the others?

In the app drawer there's a folder named Google, it should be in there

Thanks, I was feeling so stupid. And I still do, to be honest

Its called messaging+Google voice. Its just like stock, but it uses Google voice for sending texts.
Sorry if this has been posted before

Worth a shot.
For $4.99 I'll pass.

You can already send texts with Google now... I don't get it
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
It uses the default messaging interface as oppose to the Google voice interface, which is horrible. I like this app so far. Its helpful because I don't have a text messaging plan and only use Google voice for messaging.
5 bucks...sold!

Doesn't seem to be working for me. Whenever I try to send any text via Google Voice I get a red exclamation error.

You can't initiate texts from the stock messaging app that go out under your GV number.

Like the Idea, but not sure I trust an App that can monitor messages sent to/from my phone, and also can request authentication tokens from my google account... Or an App developed by someone that can not even provide a valid Developers website link.
Not a fan of 3rd party apps that require access to this type of information.
And if you Google the Developer "DreamBig, Inc" it's all about College related stuff...
It's been working as well as expected for me. Not too worried about privacy concerns. It uses Google services to access Voice and not your username and password. But thank goodness for the paranoid/careful.

I had that issue in the beginning also. Then I went under Google voice and unchecked notification and the message asking permission to log in through Google voice appeared.

Yeah, no idea. I must be doing something else wrong somewhere. I have personally NEVER been able to get text via Google voice to work. I've tried numerous times and just get frustrated because I know its supposed to work.

Also... As you can see in the screenshot, I don't even have an option in the dropdown for texts.

Did you use the new "Messaging" app beside the already existing stock "Messaging" app?

yeah, but this isn't too important for me. The risk/reward factor is too high for me, for an unknown company to access my Google account, to do nothing really new for me. besides, I have unlimited texts.

App works great and since I use Google voice as my main number this is a function I have always wanted.
But now reading the couple posts I am paranoid and debating on uninstalling.

It passedv the Google tests, but it's just not important to me, if you use gvoice exclusively, then maybe it's worth a shot.
Since I freeze apps like Facebook when I'm not running it because it stays open in the background, this is app was what I was looking for....it saves a few steps.
It disables apps you choose completely when you're not using it.
I think there's a fee other apps that do the same thing...

Is there any such app that works on un-rooted phones?
Anyone know a way to find designed for tablet apps in the play store. I seem to remember a drop down box that you could separate tablet apps from all. But can't seem to find anything now
I have posted in a couple threads about this and there are at least a few people on here wondering how to get the tablet apps on the Nexus 7. There is no way to do what you are saying though - the problem is that Google Play doesn't see the Nexus 7 as a tablet but just a phone. <--- that's IMO.
i think this is the app you want https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tablifiedapps.tablifiedmarket
If you open the app store and click on apps, then swipe to the left where it says top paid, top free ...etc etc. Then you will see the drop down menu that says all apps and then designed for tablets

What play store version are you running? Mines 4.3.11
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
That's the version I have as well. It's not cos I have a nexus 4 on the same login is it ?
I wouldn't think so, the app should detect if it's a tablet or phone. That's weird yours doesn't.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It is odd , i thought id seen it before hence starting the thread. But like you cant understand why its stopped appearing on the store now. Might see if i can raise a bug report with google about it

Is that a modded version of the Play Store?

Dude, is there something like that as well??? I haven't sensed that anything since being on Android. I think that it provides a list of compatible apps only on the top. Well if you just get to know the trick then just share your experience here as well.

What the crap is with the screen dimming and tv cast watermark that appears on videos seemingly at random? Never noticed this before the note 3 and I doubt it's phone specific but I figured I'd ask here anyway. I can't seem to find a setting to disable that.
