So today I got my first warning about having more than 10 devices authorized to my Google play account. This is due to the fact that I'm constantly flashing ROMs and every time I re-download play music on a new ROM, it thinks it's a new device therefore attributing to the device count. The downside is, you can only remove 4 devices per year.. is there any way to stop Google play from reaccounting the same device over and over again? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Titanium Backup has a nice feature that lets you revert the device id to its previous value if you have backed up Settings. That way you can keep the same id across flashes.

I had no idea that this feature existed until now. I see the option in TB to view your Android ID, as well as create a new random ID or restore the ID from a backup. How exactly do I back it up?

Yet another 4.2 problem
Since the roll-out of "Play Music" in UK I have only been able to see "Apps & Music" in the Play Store.
I've cleared the data & cache for Play Store & Play Services as well as Google Services Framework, with no luck of getting Books & Movies back, they show up on the web just fine. I've also got the apps for them on my tablet and everything in them loads fine, just that it's gone from Play Store.
Anyone else having that issue?
p.s. Stock ROM, 4.2, rooted. Play Store version 3.9.17.

Yes, I've set it to 160 or 170 first thing when I did fresh install.
Did you get this fixed? I'm on stock with density also on stock but I too can only see apps and music..

Sadly not, I hope the upcoming Play Store update will fix this.
I'm on 4.2 and changed my DPI. I noticed that play was no longer showing me books. Restoring DPI had no effect.
What fixed the problem was to delete my Google account, clear Play data, reboot, and add my account back.

My nexus 7 is completely missing the NFC chip settings under wireless and network- more - NFC and Android Beam. my nexus 7 is not rooted . the problem is not any apps I installed as in safe mode the problem persists. Attached is 2 screen shots of what it should look like and what it does look like. The photo with the setting in not my screen shot.
No screenshots. How are you sure it is not an app that is causing the issue?

this is the file. I could not get it to attach from the web on mobile. Safe mode(no user apps run) won't fix it.

I have the same problem. I use nfc tags . Now after Latest android update my NFC setting disappeared. and app say that my device Google Nexus 7 not support nfc.
I think it is a bug in update.
Anyone else have this issue?
Help Please.

im sorry but the only thing that fixed it was to factory reset te devise. so back up your data, and factory reset!
So I was hanging up on a call and noticed that in the "ongoing" notification, it said"device management - downloading software update, please do not" and had a little notification icon on the bar of 2 arrows facing opposite directions grey/blue one red. I tried to click the notification but got nothing, so I long press and looked at app info. It said AT&T software update Version v42_1_1303_5_1. I have tried searching this exact version number but nothing comes up on here or on google. I shut the phone off until further notice so I can see if this update is going to screw me in any way. Right now I am just rooted w/ TWRP recovery, but I don't want to do anything that locks this phone up. 32gb AT&T S4.
Thanks
EDIT: scratch that, i had written down the version number incorrectly, it is trying to download v42_1_1303_5_1 (not _0_5). Still, does this mess things up bad? trying to read that now.
Also, the watch on app out of nowhere is now putting its remote in the notification pull down at start up without me even touching the application. I like the app and use it from time to time but I havent touched it in a few days and now it is auto-starting on its own, strange.
Hey, I noticed the watch on app doing the same thing on mine. I didn't realize I got an update but my phone did do an unexpected reboot and watch on was running in my notification tray also.

It's just a theory, but it sounds like "Samsung Push" services might be doing some updating for you.
I got myself an unlocked Note3 on launch day and since switching from Note 2 to Note 3 I've noticed that when my phone is in standby my location keeps going to somewhere off the coast of Berwick-upon-Tweed.
Wouldn't be so bad but I'm in the NorthEast of Scotland (up by Aberdeen) and it really throws stuff off why trying to use location based services in the first few minutes.
Has anyone else noticed this type of drift when sleeping?
If your location is being detected by mobile phone bases rather than gps it is probably due to the equipment in the base station having moved. This happens from time to time when a mobile operator fixes a fault at a base station and does not reprogram the cell id upon which the phone relies to get the location. There are some apps like Cellmapper that will let you see the cell ids that are supposed to be in an area and apps like Tasker that will get them in real time

If you find my post useful, a click on the 'thanks' is appreciated.
Thanks I'll have a look at that.
Only thing is it doesn't really matter where I am but the false location is always the same.
I've seen this in Aberdeen city and also in Peterhead and Fraserburgh.
That's more inexplicable.....although there must be a reason!

I have seen mine move around quite a few times.
Today takes the biscuit.
Just glanced at my phone and my weather is for Bani Walid (in Libya). Is my phone trying to tell me something?

got the same kind of issues
Have you been able to fix this ?
I don't know what this came with but has anyone seen this random popup when opening app drawer or google voice - it'll also bring up Heroes of Dragon age from the play store randomly. How do I get rid of it? Thanks. Sorry, I don't know how to resize images.

they look more like ads... Do you remember which app you installed before they started appearing?
Try uninstalling that app... It may solve your issue...

that shouldn't be too hard..
If I am correct,the new apps are placed last in touchwiz... try going back in that order....
I will recommend making a list of apps using list my apps or similar app so that u can install the apps that were removed in the process here..
u can also check recently updated apps in my app section in Google play,that may also be doing that..
good luck!!
