I downgraded to 4.1.2 because my Nexus was getting crazy lag, and now it's smooth and lovely again. Anyway, everything is fine except for the constant popups to upgrade to 4.2. What's the easiest way to disable that?

If you have installed System Tuner, you can make this go away.
On System Tuner -> select System (the one with the red android icon) -> scroll down and select Google Services Framework -> tap Details button (the one with the magnifying glass icon) -> scroll down to Services subsection -> uncheck update.SystemUpdateService -> close System Tuner -> restart.
Hope this helps
Well that totally worked and wasn't too hard. So far the thing I only miss about 4.2 is that new clock app with world time, stopwatch, timer. I wonder if I could find that somewhere

You can fix the lag on 4.2.1 as well, pretty easy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012756

Thanks for the information. I've been looking for something to do the exact thing for me.
Hi,
I'm currently on CM10.1 and Franco Kernel.
I started playing with Tasker. The first profile I created is the GPS - Maps profile, that enables GPS when Maps is launched
New Context > "Navi" > Application > Maps
New Task [+] > Tasker > If: %GPS~off
+ > App > Go Home
+ > Misc. > GPS: Set: ON
+ > Task > Wait > 50ms
+ > App > Load App > Maps
+ > Task > End If

Everything works as expected, when maps is started, GPS is turned on, it takes couple of second for gps to get a fix meanwhile maps display a warning message that gps needs to be on , but once skipped and GPS fix is available, maps can locate my location fine.
Exiting Maps, disables GPS correctly.
PROBLEM:
After couple of hours, checking battery for application usage. I noticed that Maps was first on the list, clicking for more information, CPU time was a minute or so but GPS was X hours/minutes/Seconds (X the amount of time since maps was first launched) . GPS is still disabled, maps is not running, but GPS timer in MAPS battery info keeps increasing.
In order to stop the timer from increasing, I need to either reboot or disable tasker, manually enable GPS , start Maps, close maps and disable GPS.
Have you guys seen this before? I believe it's cosmetic as I didn't notice battery drain, but the battery statistic is all messed up.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.
Install your applock app then go to phone settings > Security > Apps with usage access > Enable your applock there.
Try locking apps now
Sorry for this 3 liner post but it might be helpful

Does anyone know how to enable the home button swipe function to launch the Google now cards? Thanks!
do you have root? do you have gapps installed?
go ahead and try: settings/apps/advanced/default app settings/assistance & voice input
and set "assist app" as google app
then swipe up from home button and configure google now cards

I have a Samsung S10+ but this is more of a general Android question. I was wondering if there was a way that you could have infinite choice on what app you wanted to be the "default navigation app".
So basically you could trick the operating system into seeing a non Navigation App as a possible option for the Default Navigation App?
Dont know if this works. This for waze but i expect it is same for any app.
Android version 6.0+
Open Android device Settings.
Enter the Apps menu (sometimes called Application Manager).
Swipe over to the All apps list.
Scroll down and tap on Waze.
Tap Open by default.
Tap Clear defaults if any exist, then tap Open supported links and choose the relevant option: Open in this app. Ask every time.

That does not work in this situation. As certain apps dont have the ability to open location and/or direction links
