I have a Windows Mobile 7 that has the "swipe" capability as show here: http://dotnetbyexample.blogspot.com/2010/09/animated-swipe-enabled-title-control.html
Can a Google app do the same thing? I would like to have an app built in Google but this swipe function seems to be causing some issues.
Just in case this helps someone - I posted on a couple of other message boards and this is what they suggested Android Gestures, Gester Detector, and HorizontalScrollView.
I am waiting to see if it is what I am looking for.
I would pay good money for this API in android. I have searched before and had no luck.

I'm not keen on sending Google any more information than necessary, and "Search Suggestions" in the address bar (wherein Google gets a recording of every URL I enter) is certainly not something I'm interested in.
I looked hard and couldn't find a way to disable it. Please don't tell me I have to switch browsers to avoid Google's "gradually make users think data mining is a-ok!" strategy.
Check if you have the latest "Google search" app from the market. Download if need be, then open it.
It will be in the app drawer. Hit menu, then settings, then web, and finally, disable web sugestions.
Oh, that worked. Thank you very much.

So I'm on MIui and for the past 4 weeks I've been receiving approx 1 "spam" message a week which appears in the header of my screen.
It's a little bit annoying, and obviously, I'd like to get rid of them given a choice.
I've attached a screenshot showing the issue.
Is there any advice on how I can stop this spam message being received in the future please?
A cursory google search and an xda search has revealed no obvious answers
Thanks in advance
Looks like you have downloaded an app with airpush advertising, at least I think its called airpush anyway.
There is an app you can download that will tell you which app is the culprit or alternatively there is an opt out app that you can download.
I had the same problem after downloading a youtube downloader so I know how annoying it is
I'll check it up and get back to you.
thanks
appreciate you taking the time.
It's annoying!
http://newbwired.com/2011/06/10/removing-airpush-from-your-android-device/
seems to have solved it for me - a beautiful widgets addon seems to have possibly caused the problem? I say uninstall to that, see what the impact will be over the next week.
Thanks ponk2k for giving me the spark I needed to potentially solve this case.
Yep, it is airpush. You can get either airpush detector or add-on detector in the market which will show you which app is causing the notification bar spam aand give you the option of deleting it or else google airpush opt out to keep the app but rid yourself of the ads
I expect you've already found it, but I used this app to find the culprit when I had airpush problems:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brosmike.airpushdetector
The Airpush Opt Out app doesn't seem to be available any more.
Dont forget guys that MIUI builds adds into the roms so it may not be just an app.
Since yesterday I've been getting ads that pop up over any and every app when I start them.
I've had this happen from an app I installed once before and uninstalling fixed it, but this time I tried uninstalling everything I've installed or updated in the past 2 weeks but they still keep popping up.
And none of the ad detectors can find these type of ads so does anyone know how to track the source?
Also this is the app I had and removed months ago that gave same problems https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=game.gles.rubikcube
Some apps running in the background causes this. Uninstall all the free app or cracked apps from your phone
I've uninstalled everything from 2 weeks before it started, and it isn't just cracked apps that cause it like you'll see by looking at the comments of the app I linked to.
So I need a way to find the app or process to find it.

You can try this:
- Install Shortcut Master app.
- Open Menu > Capture Shortcut. Here you can select 'Manually capture' and 'Auto capture', which one is suitable for you.
That way you can capture the shortcut when the ads appear. You can also know which app that the ads belong to.
i have the same problem, when i unlock th phone appear chrome window with ads, or suddenly a window over any aplication that i use inthat moment.
dam.
Samsung is adding support for ad blocking to its browser app on Android.
News detail
The first content blocker available for Samsung's Internet is Adblock Fast, which is also available for iOS and Chrome and Opera on the desktop.
I have a logo creating app that doesn't work on Mate 9 Pro. It's called Brandee.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xlabz.Brandee
The app seems to work fine when creating a new logo. But only the text I add in the app is visible and gets exported. No graphics. I've contacted the developer and got this email in return after many mails back and forth:
"
I'm coming back to you with a bad news. After a lot of internal testing we found out that your specific device Huwaii with Android 7.0 alone has this issue and our engineers are not able to find the reason why. Most if not all of the other Android devices seems to not have this problem - we had this tested on at least 6 different devices.
I'm sorry but I don't think this is fixable. If you have bought a IAP in the app let me know and we can refund it."
They have some sort of security thing in the app that prevents the user from taking screenshots in the app. Shouldn't this be an easy fix for them? This is the only app I've had problems with, and I've tried hundreds of apps on this phone. Any thoughts?
I downloaded and did a quick test of the app on the 8 beta and it worked fine, not paid version.
You could try the beta or wait for the official 8 update that will come in the future.
Beta is here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...ficial-oreo-update-emui-8-0-download-t3698219
Originally I was excited to go vanilla Android OS but as I continue to run into DUMB limitations of Google apps such as Google Calendar I begin to question my decision.
A few examples:
Google SMS app - cannot multi delete pieces of a conversation. There are other irritents as well.
Google Calendar app - cannot copy and paste an event.
Multiple Google apps - no option to not use the psudo analog clock to set time for alarms and events. For me this method is difficult to use AND I have been trying to get used to it.
I have replaced Google SMS app with Verizon but I am looking for a better replacement.
Google Calendar I am still looking for a replacement.
It seems Google apps are only partially implemented.
Suggestions?
I use Next SMS, but people also like Textra or Chomp.

This free/no ads sms & mms app is great too!

Google apps are only partially implemented. This is typical Google. They finish everything 75% of the way. Textra is probably the best SMS/MMS solution. Lots of calendars in the Play Store as well. I'd look into what's offered.
I am beginning to wonder if that is how they do Android as well...

Pretty much.
Android OS is an "Open System". Unlike other OS, if we don't like any system apps then we can download and install any of other apps that we like.
Just frustrated and letting off a little steam. I have always used Verizon Samsung Sx products in the past and looked over the shoulder of iPhone users. Trying to get Essential to that level of functionality and perhaps gimmickry (text and enhanced voicemail apps) have me pulling my hair out as I fail every time.
If you want an iPhone, buy an iPhone. Of course the price of this phone on promo is probably the finance charge of one of the latest Apple devices.

I have never owned an iPhone and I never will. I just admire their software polish. I despise their total control concept. That is why I have an Essential phone...
"Google Calendar app - cannot copy and paste an event."
This would be good. It does have some good repeat options though, including custom. I have used this to good effect with my 3 on/3 off work schedule, which I couldn't find in other apps. I have requested the copy/paste through the app, you should too.
Another thing, log into your Google account on a computer, your calendar is a little different and has some other options, including duplicate events.
