How do I remove an app I previously purchased off my gmail account? - General Questions and Answers

Hi I'm not sure if this has ever been asked. I'll try to make it as simple as possible and I'll post a screen shot. So when I go onto my play store and go to my apps it shows installed apps and when swiped to the left it shows all apps. There are some apps that show on my all apps section that I don't want showing anymore and I can't long press them to delete them off my gmail account. Is there any way I can remove them? I have ES file. Can't I do something in ES files and get into my system files for the play store to remove them that way?? Any advice would be really great. Thank you in advance
For some reason I can't post a screenshot right now. Hope someone will know what I'm talking about.

No. Simples. If you don't like it then complain to Google and add your name to the list.

You might need to look into your google account online. Its not something you could do by editing files as its all store in "the cloud"
But if you go to your account dashboard you might beable to find somewhere to wipe it etc.

Quick Question about app

Hey I just rooted my gf's Inspire using the GUI method and everything went flawlessly. Still waiting till more devs get in on this phone because I have an Evo and there is a great deal more development (of course because it's been out for much longer). Anyways, does anybody know the .apk name for the Learn More app so I can delete it through RootExplorer. It is completely useless. Once that question is answered then this thread can be deleted.
bump. Also stupid question but is there no front facing camera on this phone? Also I accidentally have it so every contact is syncing to google twice. Under every contact when you go to link it shows up google twice. Is there any way to fix this.
Well i know you cant remove an account from.gtalk without wiping the phone. Any chance you put same acct. In twice?

No what actually happened is a synced her google account which has all of her numbers and then I accidentally imported all her number from her sim to google so they were syncing both for some reason. I reset the phone and now the google contacts won't sync. I'm going to try some things and see if I can get everything working. But do you know the .apk name for Learn More?
Quick fix for the contacts us to go to Google contacts on the computer and use their dedupe toil in the top tool bar.

Thanks, I still can't find the .apk name for the Learn More app and I desperately want to delete it for her cause she keeps nagging about it. However I did get the google contacs fixed and everything is up and running. Now if only someone would tackle an SBC, undervolted kernel to attack this terrible battery life.

You either arent logged in to the same google account on your phone or you cleared history by accident.
Well I have two google accounts so how do I log into the right one on the widget

Contacts in AOKP

I have a lot of contacts synced with gmail, but most of them are emails and i don't need them in my phones contacts. How do i delete multiple contacts at once?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Don't remember if you can do a batch select (I've only done it once and for the same reason) but you need to log in to gmail from a computer and edit the contracts from there. Also I believe in contacts settings you can set it to show only contacts with phone numbers.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
Like eb says using a computer you can edit the contacts. What I would do is setup groups and only sync the various groups with phone numbers.
Thanks guys, but i tried something else. I installed go contacts ex and then did a batch delete of all the contacts i don't want

Don't have that option. And i have one more problem. How do i sync all my Facebook contacts. When i was on gb and installed Facebook, the first screen would all if i wanted to sync all my contacts, sync with existing contracts, or don't sync at all. But now i don't see and can't find that screen

This works well for syncing fb contacts. You can choose all contacts or existing in the settings https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync

Open app drawer select People, then menu contacts to display, customize. Select your facebook account and it will show a box for all contacts if that isnt checked then it is only syncing with existing contacts. If you select your gmail account you will have the option to sync all the groups individually.
It says no contacts. There's no way to get to that screen on the Facebook app that asks how youwant to sync the contracts?

Clear all data log out and uninstall the app. Reboot your phone re-install the app. If that doesnt bring the option up then its go forever.
Maybe?

Found this. I haven't tried it since I'm at work doing a 24 hr shift. Figured I would let people know what I found. I plan to give a try after I get some sleep. If anyone gives it a go could you please let us know how it goes?

might not be the actual google account....are getting your gmail to your phone? If so, then it is log on...
prob the play store....have you tried clear cache and data for the play store, thru the settings/applications/all applications....look for google play store app...clear the above and reboot then try again...
Okay I'll give that a try, and it is all apps that require my gmail acct, like if I go to settings> accounts and sync, my account doesn't show up
That seems to have worked, thanks man

[Q] Random Backup Pictures?

I have searched all over the forums and I cannot find anything about this. I made a google plus account the other day and after I made it I went to my gallery and there were backups of all my pictures and I don't want them there. I've tried just about everything from going into the app and seeing if there were any options to stop it, from going into my phones settings. I can't seem to find where to turn this off at, it's really getting on my nerves because I want them gone and I can't just delete them! Thanks in advance!
Did you rush through the installation of Google plus? There's an option to sync pictures and stuff I think.

I saw that and I unchecked it and still they won't go away.
If I remember correctly you have to login to your Google account settings and then uncheck from there but it has been a long time since I turned mine off.

I went to an app that was called google settings and I went to camera & photos and turned off auto backup that's the only thing that I can think to do. I went back and still no dice the photos are still there.
This is the image from my phone showing the pictures. You can see that there is the one folder that is named camera. The other ones are the backup photos can't be deleted.
That's Picasa back ups. Go into settings, under Accounts select Google. Then at the top it should show your Gmail account and when it synced last, tap it. Then scroll down and uncheck Sync Picasa Web Albums. That will stop it adding any more. To get rid of the ones already there I THINK you clear data/cache for the gallery app... But it's been awhile since I did it. I just remember it took me forever to get rid of them... I didn't need over 1000 pics backed up twice.
