Q. No calculator ? - T-Mobile LG G3

Just got my G3 yday and noticed its not an calculator app. I researched and noticed some ppl have it and some dont. Did the software update remove the calculator or it was never on the phone?

Try Settings->About Phone->Update Center->App Updates->Idle Apps
You can install and uninstall LG apps from here. Maybe yours didn't come pre-installed with calculator but the app should be available to all G3 users.

You can find much better ones on the app store anyway. Been using a really good scientific Casio clone one for nearly a year now.

Amazon MP3 updated...finally

Amazon MP3 has an update, and it doesn't automatically start anymore. I know most of you still consider it "bloatware", but at least they made an effort.
I updated and rebooted. Sure enough, no Amazon MP3 running in the background. Nice.
New in v1.8.29:
* “Auto-resume downloads” (was “Monitor connection”) setting is disabled by default
* App no longer starts in the background unless “Auto-resume downloads” is enabled or device language changes
Not bad at all, thanks for the update
how do i update this app on my G2?

But it is on my G2 by default, part of the T-mobile bloatware.

Just downoad it from the market. If you see that you now have two amazon mp3 app uninstall the newly downloaded app. Fyi the youtube when it was first released wasn't seen as an update in the market but after installing it did appear as an update.

I notice that there is something called as DigiClock installed after market was updated. I didn't install this and I can't find this program anywhere and can't find a place to uninstall either. Uninstalled market updates, but it is now showing up even in the old market as well.
Got this update too but I feel it's just fine, however I don't use it so often.
hi, i just kind of replace the market.apk from blapkmarket... and instead got market that does not run... would someone be nice enough to pm me market.apk link?
thanks!

Facebook Home coming to Note II

I hope it's something that doesn't try and take over your phone's basic functionality. If it's just an App that doesn't do anything until you run it then that's fine with me.

It probably does run in the background on boot, unles you AutoStart it off.
On the stock-based ROMs, there's a background service called "SNS" (IIRC) that has the Facebook logo as its icon. This app probably uses that service. SNS can be safely frozen.

Thanks Skripka, that's good to know. I just got my Note 2 and am relatively new to Android in general. When you say frozen, does that mean disabled?

IIRC, SNS cannot be disabled via Manage Apps....It must be "frozen" (disabled) via a root tool like Titanium Backup.
*I don't for for sure what services this new Faceplant app uses...I'm just guessing. Not on the Faceplant, and not going to join just to find out.

My thoughts exactly lol
I hate how they keep cramming FB and Twitter down our throats. If I wanted to let my friend know that I just took a dump, I'd call him on the phone like normal people.
I am glad to see an even greater number and diversity of apps coming to android, and specifically the Note2. That said, Facebook Home will never have an opportunity to afflict my Note2.
Would be promising if it weren't made by Facebook. The app alone is lucky to still be installed.

Why is everybody attacking this? It's an optional app, no more intrusive than any other app on the market. Download it if you want to give it ago, uninstall it if you don't like it.
Anyone find it in the market yet? The facebook app had an update but when I go to settings and enable facebook home it takes me to Google play and says item not found.

We just don't get it. Old Xperia L could play it, but the S3 get's no love on the game for some reason,.
Its an issue with 4.3 on the S3 and I don't know why they haven't been able to fix it. I did get it to run a while back but had to install an older version that I knew worked because I used to run it
Yeah the older versions worked perfectly but the new one is not.

This new versions been out for a while. I dont think theyre doing a bug fix.
Ps: does anyone know how to disable the update notification in the old versions. i cant play with data/wifi on because it keep bugging me to update to the new version. it takes me to the market and as you know its "incompetible"
If enough people email the dev it might motivate them to fix it. Especially if everyone starts demanding refunds and leaving poor reviews. No guarantee of course, but its more guaranteed that nothing will happen if no one tries to make it happen!
In app manager most apps have a checkbox for display notifications. Maybe that'll help?

I have found a solution. I was browsing Samsung's galaxy app store and saw asphalt 8 being featured so I was like what the hay, so I installed it and it runs perfectly! Maybe they forgot to unblock the S3 from when it was having problems at Google play? Anyways give it a try!

Is there a list of apps that are safe to freeze?

I saw in the other general thread that someone put all of the apps he froze on the AT&T G3. I was wondering if someone has done this for the T-Mobile G3.

I personally have just removed the t-mobile bloatware currently. I rooted, did a full backup with titanium and removed all the t-mobile stuff.
I actually deleted LG Suite since I'm using titanium for backup, I also deleted LG Backup, Google newstand, Google movies and TV, it don't work on rooted phones, T-Mobile TV, the weather app since I use my own. I deleted smart notice, don't use it, don't want it. don't need it,
All the apps I removed with no issues, so far. I have a few more to go. Phone is flying

Sometimes big system updates require all apps to untouched so I usually just freeze. But you could do what dxtra said also and keep the apks in a separate location.
Is there an advantage to freezing vs just disabling them?

I believe it's both the same you freeze via titanium backup you disable via the app settings.
