I know this is gonna sound ridiculous but I get poked ALL THE TIME by girls I see at bars, clubs or friends of friends who are too intimidated to add me as a friend. Hell even guys do from time to time. So honestly that is a feature that is important to some.. And no I did not write that comment lol

I didn't know you could poke any more!

Me either, well, actually, I got poked by some guy that I don't know and have no mutual friends with the other day. I think that was the first time I've ever been poked.
I'm sure I read somewhere the other day that the poke was going bye-bye soon; gifts are already gone.

If they see you at bars, how do they know your name/email to find you on facebizzle; if they know that much they might as well add you up.

You guys don't know the secret behind poking, huh? I used to do some facebook hacking before they cracked down on it. The thing is, when you poke someone, you have acess to a temporary page that displays information that would usually be private, including features. It's a stalker feature in fb for sure, but try it out. It's a great thing to do when you don't want to send a friend request but still want to stalk the person..\

oh snap.. really?. that's pretty awesome. lol
and I'm happy to report that... FINALLY!.. I don't have partial wake lock with this update.. jesus, took them long enough.
.1 didn't work for me, even after uninstalling facebook and completely reinstalling. .2 fixed it, but only after a full install again.

This new update broke notifications (takes you to the website, again), which had been fixed in the last update.

How to you completely uninstall the Facebook application. I only have the option to "uninstall updates", I can't uninstall the app (not from the market front, or the Applications -> Manage -> Facebook). I am not rooted and have never seen this before. And yes, I am not trying to remove the Facebook for HTC Sense, I am trying to remove the katana one. 1.3.2 is still in my running services even though I have all notifications turned off and refresh turned off. 1.2 never showed up in the running services location.

ohhhhh the new update broke notifications? so how do i get the new update and which facebook is this, htc sense or regular

So they update the app so the last 6 people with 1.5 can install the app, and it breaks notifications for all of us.

Is anyone still having issues with the awake time bug. 1.3.2 is causing my phone to stay awake

My notifications, even on the last update, have always always always taken me to the website.

I had been running the last version without the partial wake bug (1.2.9? 1.3.0? I forget) and upgraded to this today. Immediately went back to constant partial wake time. I just uninstalled the entire app for now but are you saying that a complete uninstall then reinstall of the new version will get rid of this issue? I don't really care too much because the regular site works just fine. I just figure I will use the application if it's not raping my battery in exchange for saving me 2 seconds of opening a bookmark.

if were talking about the htc sense one, then how do i update it? or find the version im on?

1.3.2 is keeping my phone awake non-stop, again, even after a reinstall. Now it's giving me a 500 server error, too.

Thank you for the what???

OK so at the recommendation of one of the members I flashed U.K.E. Rom on to my phone. Kinda liking it but I got the oddest text this morning.

I got the Rom from the sdx forum and I haven't installed anything that wasn't from the market. I do have the phone number and it's from a local number, that's what freaks me out the most. If this wasn't a fluke then anyone with this knowledge can get my info let alone could they call out of country on my account and all that stuff...

Wow very random if i must say. I have yet seen or heard of this. Im wondering if you have a rogue app messing with you two. Lets see if we can figure this out, what apps do the both of you have the same of? Ive yet to see this message to me or hear of it from others. And i can tell you that there is nothing written into this rom to send you that message. This is why im thinking its a rogue app. If we could get a list of the apps you both have that received this random message.

Sounds good. BTW, I called Sprint just to double check to see if they show any calls placed through my phone number or anything. The lady on the phone said it's possible but if someone did it wont post to my account for a few days, especially if they made any international calls.
I didn't figure there was anything scripted into the rom itself to do this, it's possible that it could be something rogue. It's also possible that someone with the skillz was just driving by and grabed my info from a wifi signal and texted me just to F with me.

This is the list as of the time I got the text. Sometimes I uninstall things like maps if I don't need it and what not.
And keep in mind, I'm not blaming anyone for what has or may happen. I'm not accusing anyone of anything. Just figured I'd see if this is just an odd ball spam from someone locally trying to troll me or what.

Wow that is odd as hell. I've been running and testing uke since before it was released and I've never had that pop up on me. Its def not something in the rom and I hope you guys find the app doing it. Good luck.

I think this is what's making me think it's just a fluke or a troll... I've been running these apps for a while now and haven't ever had a problem with them. I didn't even expect a comment from One_Love_420 either. VICODAN is the one that recommended the ROM to me so I wasn't going to just point the finger to the ROM anyways. I did have my Wifi running all night long (had the advanced setting setup to not put my wifi to sleep when my phone goes off). The only thing I haven't done yet is check to see what my logs say on my Linksys router (maybe he tapped my phone for internet).
I think it's just a fluke (or at least I hope... this could be an exspensive bill if this person was able to make calls from my phone or anything like that).

yeah its def an oddity. have you ran miui on it anytime recently and maybe there was residual mess from it and someone was still able to mess with you? or hell, coulda been someone texting the wrong person, i would think its just a fluke if youve been using the same apps for x amount of time and havent had this happen before.

One thing does come to mind when looking at your app list. Go sms pro is a china developed app and has a ton of permissions that i would never approve of, one being the ability to make calls. Check its permissons list on the market. A little much for an app imho.

I haven't tried Miui yet. I started with CM7 and wanted to get into somthing light (meaning less sprint stuff and being able to uninstall maps and stuff since I only use them once in a great while). I know I got a lot of GO stuff on it but I've just been tinkering with it since the kernal is running a bit more then just the 800 mhz on the cpu. Wanted to "test" out what this thing is capable of.
The bling is nice, the personalization of colors and stuff is cool and all... But I use this for business a lot and kinda like a rock solid machine that's as efficient as possible. I'm looking into other options of roms that are just plane Jane Android next. U.K.E. has been running nicely even with all the bling (minus go sms now I guess). Depending on how put off I am about no bling I might just go back to using U.K.E.

You should always check permissions of apps even from the market..Google doesn't keep track of apps published on the market and if they are malicious or not. It's up to users to report if something funky is happening. That's why I un-installed GoSms a long time ago when they first added all of those strange permissions to the updated versions. It was even causing people to have issues with phone calls. Read through market comments and check permissions Always with any app even if it's just a update to a new version. The devs of GoSms are very un-responsive also when people ask them about the permissions and report issues. If you really want to get down to the bottom of something also run a logcat and see what the app is doing.

Solid indeed. Outside of that odd text I haven't had any other issues. I haven't tried to track down who's phone number that is Incas it's a friend just messing with me and I haven't had any charges posted to my account so... Might have just been someone messing with me.

It's definately not a rom related issue. Download Addons Detector from the market. This will help you to track down suspicious apps intalled on your device.

So I got rid of all of the GO products and I'm just running the AWD stuff that came with the rom. Only thing I realy miss is the SMS stuff. I looked at handsent and their permissions are the same (for the most part) as go sms.
Any thoughts on an sms program? I'm looking for character count and more info like sent date/time displayed without going into message details.

So Long Market

This has been reported in other threads but no here.
Beginning Tuesday, the Android Market will be known as the Google Play Store. Google's eBookstore and recently launched music service will also be part of the Google Play Store. The same selection of books, music and movies had already been available on Android Market. Sounds nice, but whats behind the shiny chrome?

any way of forcing the update? Tried the old clearing data/cache/fc-ing, reboot ....but to no avail. am I to assume we must wait for it to roll out?

Google says that the update will roll out in the next days

eeh... i still prefer Swype... mostly cause it's free.
And i think the new name is just plain odd. Sounds like something Sony might have an issue with, honestly.

I don't like it either. I will always call it the market. No chance I'll ask somebody "Hey did you download that from Play?"

I've downloaded the apk for the update but it won't install, it just fails, have installed it on another device with no issues, any ideas?

just wait for it. mine just updated now.

Mine is not updated yet but don't like the name.
Makes no sense, still not as dumb as the NEW IPAD.

Having some issues with new Play with the new MIUI ICS build. Does not let load some apps that it did before. Probably an issue with MIUI but may be new market. Good deal on books and apps this week.

Can't install the apk, shows "application not installed."
I'm on NottachTrix v1.2.8, anyone can install the apk?

Mine updated yesterday afternoon. I ended up deleting all market updates to trouble shoot something, and then it only updated back to 3.4.4.
They may have pulled the update because it was removing the market link from people's home screen. I'm sure there are a handful of people looking through their apps for the market app, and ignoring the weird little google play icon.

i casually sleep walked through the "upgrade"
it's the exact same thing, just count how many times the work "play" occurs on the start page

Ya they do have a lot of good deals going on right now, but over all i think its is the exact same market with a crappy name and icon. Id say untill i see a major change it a dumb move. they are marketing the whole switch as a place to get movies books music and apps. but we have always been able to et that there lol

I don't like the new "Play" name and I don't like the new icon, but hey, Google didn't ask me.
Also supposed to be version 3.4.7 out there to fix the "Market" link in the upper right corner of the App drawer (it doesn't work on 3.4.6), but my Atrix hasn't received "the fix" yet.

I had to force the update to 3.4.7. What I did was I went into manage apps, clicked on Google Play Store, and uninstalled updates. It reverted me back to the old market. I then cleared data and loaded the market. After accepting the terms I exited the market and waited a couple of minutes and opened it again. It then updated me to the Google Play Store again, but this time it was version 3.4.7. If that doesn't work for you can grab the apk and install it manually. Here is the link:

Agreed. Android Market had widespread name recognition, and Google is throwing it away in favor of a name that makes it sound like a gaming site. I get that they want to consolidate everything into a one-stop-shopping site, but did they have to pull a New Coke to do it? They could've renamed it to something like "Google Market"; that would have kept the familiar "Market" name while widening its scope beyond Android. But then, that would have made too much frickin' sense.

I will say this Google is not one usually that makes a real dumb or big move like this with out haveing some other intent in the works. so maybe this move will seem more logical in the coming moths and they will have some big change or anouncement that involves google play

I do agree the name sound weird but I believe its a larger move to unify a number of services under one name. I have checked the chrome app sec but I'm pretty sure the chrome web store number of ply apps so you can view your content on your computer or your phone

Oh, no question, and I think it's a good idea. The problem I have is that it's a bad name. It's a name that makes you think of a place for games, not for downloading apps and media. "Google Market" would have accomplished this goal. "Google Play Store" makes it sound like the online equivalent of GameStop. Google rarely makes missteps, but when it does, it goes all in.

Cell broadcast

Alright guys. Anyone else here having cell broadcast issues? This thing keeps going off telling me there is a blizzard warning. Like 3 times a day.
We were under a blizzard a week ago tomorrow. I got the warning. Okay...cool... then I got another one the following day. Then like 3 more the day after. I've gotten maybe 12 since then. We are absolutely not under a blizzard warning.
The way I understand it, cell broadcast is declared by govt or whoever is issuing the broadcast. They then contact phone company and tell them where to send the broadcast to. They can push nationally, regionally, locally whatever. The cell company just pages it to certain towers to target the correct people the broadcast is supposed to go to.
I read up a bit and saw that there have been some issues with the system earning wrong people etc. But I didn't see anything where people got like 15 wrong messages. I checked around my neighborhood (trying to make sure asking people pinging the same tower) and pretty much everyone with a relatively new phone got that initial broadcast. No one has received any others. So I'm just like WTF?
from what I can tell the broadcast is a one and done deal. The cell company pings the tower, beams the message, done. There shouldn't be any software issues that can affect it that I can think of. But why then has no one else in my neighborhood (or even town) gotten more than one message?
I'm stock. Not even rooted. Did unlock boot loader. I can't imagine I've messed anything up considering I haven't done anything to the phone.
Any ideas?
Attached screen grab showing 3 broadcasts since last night. Previously deleted the others. Also screen grab showing no bad weather.
And holy mother [email protected]&#er just got another one while typing this.

You can just disable the cell broadcast? I know cell broadcast is a good idea (kinda), but if it doesn't really work then you just have to disable it.
It is under Settings -> Wireless and Network -> More -> Cellbroadcast.

Using CM10.1 on mine and Cell Broadcast is gone kinda but maybe it's good I don't have it!
Was happy to see that AOSP 4.2 finally supported it though. I'ms ure CM will do it soon but definitely something wrong with the implementation if you keep getting the same warning over and over.

For most of them, looking out the window is just as effective, and in the case of major weather events, they're usually big news beforehand.
