Anyone have any clue what this app is??? - General Questions and Answers

Hi all,
I am running the stock OTA JB rom on my Sprint Galaxy Nexus and ran across this app listed in the ALL category under Apps in settings. I have no clue what it is as I never downloaded anything like this. Does anyone know what it could be? It does not show up under "downloaded" or "running" nor do I see it in my Play Store account.
Given the version number, I assume it has something to do with Jelly Bean, but not sure.

I've seen this before. Someware. Don't know what it is though. But what I can tell you is that I think it IME in the name. I know its in another laungage but I've seen it in English some ware.

Im pretty sure it's a Chinese keyboard. Its so familiar.

Try to DELETE it with Root Manager or Titanium Backup! U dont need it because i got it too and i unistalled it.
This program can be some VIRUS or something else BAD!
Its IME (scaner or recognazion i dont know)

If you don't speak an eastern Asian language then there's no point in keeping it.
But no its not a virus since its a system app Google puts in Android, an IME is a keyboard not a scanner.... do your research

I accidentally deleted it and didn't find it after.
It's called Timescape
I think it is;
com.sonyericsson.advancedwidget.timescape - (Timescape Widget)
i think the apk for it is TimescapeWidget.apk
I think he means he deleted it from the home screen.
Yes, it's Timescape.
It also will not work if you've deleted the extentions to run it.

lol. I think your maybe right . I skiped over the "How's this widget called?" part and only read the "I accidentally deleted it and didn't find it after" and just presumed he ment uninstalled.

Also, to note, the TimeScape widget and extensions are part of the SonyEricsson 'enhancements' that they add to the phone UI and framework. This is not present on the R800x (US CDMA VZW version) although some of the hooks are still present. (I know the poster is non-US, but I figured I would chip in for those who are looking for info about this service/widget/framework)
Found it. Yes, I deleted it from my screen and had a hard time finding it, never thought it was Timescape (it should've been called something like "Notifications").

What Are These and Where Did They Come From?

These are files and they come from your phone.
Ahh, is that why they show up in a file explorer on my phone?
Doesn't explain why they just appeared one day.

How about you invest some time and don't assume every uses magic glass ball to know what you want.
There are 10 files on that screenshot, which one bothers you?
Well i guess you mean the file created 31 Dec, so why not tell me that?
You want the help, so don't let others do you work, do some research yourself, present others your result and THEN ask your question.
You did not even seem to have bothered google with "one" search first:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=android+file+named+"mr.log"
Oh look at that 3rd entry.
A virus called "Yxes.A" creates a "mr.log" file, though the reports only talk about symbian OS.
You might have a virus...
NO STOP! Keep your finger of the reply button, don't ask how to remove it.
GOOGLE IT then come back tell us what you found and why it didnt work...
More specifically, the rc and sh files. The first thing I did was Google them, but the results meant nothing to me.
My reply wasn't meant to sound arsey so I apologise if it came across that way.

I meant to take this screenshot:
I flashed the .62 ROM from here: http://www.multiupload.com/L8P0U47S0V a couple of days ago but I can't remember seeing them when I first had a browse.

im not 100% but you may have to use a third party keyboard app to get it. i use smart keyboard pro
You have to extract the LatinIME.apk from a different rom and replace it with the existing apk. Also, don't forget to set the permissions.
You have to extract the LatinIME.apk from a different rom and replace it with the existing apk. Also, don't forget to set the permissions. I'll attach a zip with the apk to make it easy. Just simply extract this one and replace the old one using Root Explorer. This is the one I use with MIUI.
Oops, sorry for the double post... No idea how that happened.

it has english dictionary also has ??? i don't know how to say , slide your finger for letters , for example "H E L O" , it will automatically spell word "hello"

[Q] How to stop play store from updating?

Last year I do remember that someone posted a method by removing some file which prevented google to updating play store (it was called Market then)
I prefer the old black theme much better how can I retain it? I restored it from my backup but google updates it all over again n again. There must be a way to stop this update, please tell me how?
Found a way from a note I had stored earlier when I did this last year.
From the system folder I deleted MarketUpdater.apk after taking the backup & then reinstalled the older version. It now wont update.
You need to have root permissions before you can do it.
Hope it helps others.
I would like to know what was the last dark theme version before the new lighter version came out, as of now I have installed 3.10.14 is this the latest?
THe main reason I reverted to older version was that I wanted a dark theme but now I found a play store mod here

It offers the latest version with black dark theme so you get best of the both.
I hope it helps others.

[Q] Google Maps update

I've been reading articles about a recent major update to Google Maps, but so far nothing appears to have changed on my phone (or tablet, for that matter) and the Play Store tells me I've got the latest.
Anyone know what gives with this? Does anyone have the new version?

Good for a laugh first thing this morning lol
Thanks. Didn't realize they maintained different "versions" of the app targeted to specific O/Ss and devices. Hey -- my app runs on anything from 2.3 up!

The lastest update really does suck !
I was on the free way, but it showed my position on the street next to the free way. It had never happened before the update. So I don't recommend people to update. And my GPS signal is pretty good (16/25 sat.), so there is nothing wrong with my gps, but the app itself.
Agreed, if you can keep from updating, definitely hold out. Mine wouldn't keep up with my position in navigator and it was telling me to turn in directions which weren't even possible. They've introduced some major bugs with this update. I reverted back to an older version and I'm good to go now.
