    Help Lost 4.3 Update

    I got told an update to 4.3 had been downloaded about a week ago, but have only just got around to installing it. The strange thing is, the phone tells me that it's up-to-date, despite still being on 4.2.2. Has Google pulled the 4.3 update for the Galaxy Nexus, or do I just need to wait for...

    Before I update to Jelly Bean, has anybody here used Widget Locker and Nova Launcher Prime with Jelly Bean? If so, do they seem to work OK?

    1x1 Camera Widget for WidgetLocker (solved)

    I would like to be able to take a picture from the Widget Locker screen without having to unlock my phone. I can put a camera shortcut on the WidgetLocker screen (in fact, there's one there by default), but I still need to unlock the phone before using the camera. I might be misunderstanding...

    [International / GSM] Manually updating to 4.0.4

    Now that the signal problems with 4.0.4 have been sorted out, I fancy updating from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4. I still haven't had an OTA update, so am considering updating manually. A Samsung repair centre gave my phone back to me with an unlocked bootloader. I doubt it's been rooted, but the unlocked...

    Help Cannot Factory Reset

    I am unable to factory reset my phone. Has anybody come across this before? When I tried a factory reset by going into settings, the phone rebooted, but the screen stayed simply saying "Google". I had to pull out the battery. It started up OK, but hadn't been reset. I tried by turning the...

    Help How Long Should a Factory Reset Take?

    How long should I expect a factory reset to take? I accepted all the warnings, my phone turned off and turned on again. It's been stuck showing "Google" for the last 15 minutes. I really don't want to take the battery out during a factory reset, so I thought I'd ask to see how long people have...

    Help Firmware update (Feb-12)

    What do I get with the latest firmware update that's been mentioned in this forum a few times? Is it only an updated Market app, or is there more to it than that? If it's only an updated market app, I might as well ignore the update, because my market app seems to be working OK.

    Help Email Attachments

    I'm sorry if I'm asking something that has been asked before, or if I'm bring stupid, but I can't see pictures that have been emailed to me. I'm using the stock Android email app. I can see the pictures (which were sent from an IPhone) on my phone with ICS, but I can't see them using my...

    Help Goto Date

    Am I missing something obvious, or is there no way of being able to go to a particular date in the stock calendar app? I know it's easy enough to scroll to a different date, but for distant dates, it's easier to enter the date to go to (in the same way that it's possible when adding a new...

    Help Market Comments

    I know I'm being stupid, but I've never been able to figure out how to leave comments on apps in the Android Market. I can do it on my phones, but not on my tablet. Could someone help?

    Help Won't Turn On

    My phone had no mobile signal, so I tried to turn it off and on. It seemed to turn off more quickly than normal. I then tried to turn it on, and it's now stuck with a screen that shows the Android icon, a start arrow and a message that says "Downloading..... Do not turn off target". Pressing the...

    Help YouTube Films in UK

    Yesterday, You Tube started renting films in the UK. I successfully rented one using my PC, but didn't start watching it. I opened up the Videos app on my Galaxy Tab (which is what You Tube uses to watch rented films), and the film appeared OK. When I tried to watch it, I got a message saying...

    Help Birthdays in Calendar Widget

    My friends' birthdays are already in my Google Calendar, so when the SGT's calendar automatically displays their birthdays from my contacts list, everybody's birthday appear twice. I have turned this option off in the calendar, so everything looks OK in the calendar. Unfortunately, this hasn't...

    Help Deleting emails

    Am I being stupid, or does the standard email app not delete emails from the IMAP server? It moves them to the Trash folder. When I view the trash folder, they appear temporarily before disappearing, but remain on the IMAP server. I've looked for an "also remove from server" option in the...

    Help Widgets not updating

    I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but my widgets aren't updating. I've added the calendar and email (not Gmail) widgets. The calendar one is still showing yesterday's events and the email one isn't showing new emails. Is there something I need to set to get widgets to update automatically?

    Help Installing apps on a new device

    The apps that I've installed onto my HTC Desire are associated with my Google account that I've linked my Galaxy Tab to. I'm sure I read somewhere that I should just go to My Apps and they should be listed there ready to download. This isn't the case. The only two apps listed there are Google...

    Changing Primary Email Address

    I've tried searching the web and these forums for an answer to my question, but can't find it. I hope I've posted my question in the correct section. When I first got my phone (an HTC Desire), it wouldn't let me link it to my Google account, because the primary email address on the account was...

    Problems with SugarSync

    I used the SugarSync app instead of the DropBox app, because I read that it allows me to specify specific directories, but DropBox doesn't. Although it does let me specify a particular directory, it doesn't actually work very well. I raised this with SugarSync support during the week, but...

    Apps wanting Google login details

    I've installed some apps that require access to my Google account, and I've simply had to give them permission to access my Google account using my phone's login. There are two apps that I'm thinking about installing (Gdocs and Phone-to-Chrome) that don't use the phone's Google login, but ask...

    Help GDocs Login

    I'm thinking about installing GDocs, but it seems that it doesn't ask permission to use my phone's Google login (which all other apps I've installed have done), but asks me to enter my Google login details again. Assuming I trust GDocs not to phish my username and password, is there any other...
