Question about two apps after 7.0 - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After I got the update for 7.0 Lookout is freaking out. Can someone tell me if these need to be deleted or is Lookout overreacting?

You really need this app ?

I have no idea what they are or what they do. Only did this once I installed the ota. I tried to uninstall both but they will not uninstall.

I believe @therock3181 was referring to Lookout and not the apps in question.

Yup.

What needs to be deleted is that Lookout crap...

If you go to the play store listing for Lookout you'll find an uninstall button.. Seriously though, on the listing you'll see email developer. Might have more luck emailing them for support. Also, questions should go in the Q&A subforum, not general.
Edit: A Google search of the package names will also help.

Dont have that one
Is there any chance this happens because i'm not from the US? im from latin america
if so any way i could get it?
I doubt this will work in Latin America. I saw a pulled apk of this somewhere in the forums.
You could sideload it probably without issue but hen Google would see your IP and likely tell you it isn't supported.
Its no big deal anyway.
Sound hound , shazam, etc... same type.

They've changed name. I remember downloading GoogleEars.apk few months back on here. When I googled it, I got sound search instead. It can't recognize humming or things that you sing to it. Still using SoundHound.
It's there but you need to use Titanium Backup to defrost it - and again after every reboot.
seems that i'll need to buy shazam, thanks anyways

I found Google Ears / Sound Search to be way quicker than Shazam.

[Q] play store crashes after 4.3 OTA update

I'm at a loss for this and cannot get around it. I am unable to open the play store after the recent OTA update. Any ideas on a remedy? I've searched the forum and can't seem to find anyone else having this issue xD

Do you have Google Services Framework installed and enabled?
Try deleting your Google account and then re add it.

Nexus 6P Google Play Services

I'm afraid I might of just done something daft. I installed the new google play services update, without checking the previous 3 digits from my previous phone, and now it is not working properly. Could someone help me, which version should I install? I have a Nexus 6P with the security updates for November, and I haven't changed anything. If someone could post the like that be great!

Google Photos issues?

I'm having serious issues using Google Photos with this phone. Regardless of which view I'm using (except the full-month view), the app won't let me scroll through more than a couple weeks of photos. When I click any given photo, the app pulls up a different random photo). I can see thumbnails going back much further in the full month view, but when I actually click a month to view it, the app reverts back to the current photos. Is anyone else having this issue? I use Google Photos extensively so this could be a dealbreaker for me on this phone. It doesn't happen with other phones (I've confirmed this).
Dude, I had this problem too. I thought it was just me. If you disable the app and then let it uninstall to factory version, re-enable it then it will work. DON'T LET IT UPDATE! I reviewed the app and let google know. I suggest others report it too we can't be the only ones.

Same here, fixed in the last version : 1.16.0.117494210.
Update, and delete app cache in aplications

This was happening to me too but the latest version fixed it for me..
I can also confirm, updated wiped cache, restarted, all is good.

I guess I'm the unlucky one then. I'm on the latest version and I've tried all that. Still having the issue.

Delete app cache and data, check versiĆ³n ( see above) go to accounts, delete you Google account, restart the phone, add your Google account again and post results
Enviado desde mi XT1575 mediante Tapatalk
Same here, even with latest version of app
Having version 1.17.something, same problem as posted above. Resetted app to version 1.5.something (factory setting on my Moto X Style). I hope some future update will solve this behavior.

Finow x3 plus

So, I bought this watch 6 days ago. My first smartwatch. Now, its looks nice and is fast and smooth and all! But I am pretty shocked to see that, there are so few apps which are compatible with this device! Howcome an android device not be compatible with android watch apps? I mean what the fish? Even official android wear app doesnt connect with the watch. I mean wtf? Ah and theres no pull down notification drawer at all! I am not getting it!
But honestly the watch looks cool. kinda like moto 360. which is why I picked it!
That's because it's not an Android Wear Watch but a Android Watch.... It means that it's a phone in your wrist...

Well I dont mind the app not connecting. Finow has its own pairing app. But if its an Android phone then how come so few app are compatible?
Actually almost all apps are compatible... Don't you have Google Play Store installed? Anyway, you can download whatever app from Google looking for "app name"+"apk" ... That is the file that install any app

ya. I know mate. Most app I install are not even shown in app drawer. When I try to open them it says app not found. Means its installed but not compatible. Only the apps I found compatible are below. Amongst them even the calculator doesnt work.
I have quite a lot apps that says Not Compatible in Google Play and after installing them via APK I can use them

Playstore doesnt say incompatible. I just simply cant open the apps.
You using X3 Plus? May I take your assistance further? may be add you on hangout or somewhere?
I'm using the "Lite" One... The K9... Anyway tell me what do you need... Try to look for those apps you cannot open in Google and download previous versions. That happened to me with a keyboard app and I managed to make it work.

For now, please tell me how I search for an app in playstore?
No, yo dont have to do it in playstore... You have to do it in Google... You have to look for "whatsapp APK" and have to download an APK file then install it...
For old version do the same and try in "Apkmirror" a website of apks... It usually has a history of version of every apk

Any of you know how to disable link loss sound of the watch helper? It's very annoying. Or maybe there a different, compatible app?

I know exactly what you mean. It keeps going of when I have my phone right with me. Went off really loud in a meeting the other day and I couldn't switch the damn thing off. Bit embarrassing!! If you find out I would be very interested to know as it puts me off wearing my Finow Q1.
Ok. I manage to edit watch helper apps form the phone and watch. I've installed phones apk aaaanndd... No more link loss sound on my phone. I've transferred watch apk but I can't install it cause of circular screen o_0 It asks me if I want to update system apk but I don't see the button. Any solution for this?
Is there any way to root this watch? Kingroot is not working here.

Its just a click to turn off the alert. On phone u press ok. It stops. On watch you press the down button it shuts off. It never lost connection when my phones around but when im out of range it did. And its a safety for not loosing my phone.
By the way, im getting around with the watch better. My batt is decent now. Turned off gps and wifi. And it boosted up 25% batt.
But I have a question. I cud receive calls on phone when paired with my phone before. Now I cant. Any idea how?

I'll try to root later. I've OTA updated my x3+. I think I should downgrade it first. But where can I find some older firmware.

try M2D you'll find it on the site you gave a link to, if not i'll make sure the developer will post it there, there are 3 apps the sender, the reciever and the bt connection.
