Hi, I received a kind of weird question from my parents the other day.
My mother used her iPad to search for something on Google (in Safari).
Later my father, using his phone (Galaxy S2), launched Google Search, and noticed her search came up in his own log.
They're quite confused, as am I.
The only thing I can think of is Google logging the IP-address, both using the same wireless network, and Google doing its usual search-sync to my father's device. (I after all have all my queries in Chromium show up on my device, but that is account linked and explicitly allowed)
Anyone able to shed some light on this?

They are logged in with the same account.
If you don't want this to happen then setup your search settings for the account in use to not record any history.
or you can simply not login to google on the ipad and just use google without an account.
They are using two completely different accounts, I thought that was obvious.

As the title says, I cannot access my hotmail email account via any email apps (Stock, Aqua, K9, MailDroid) while connected to the T-Mobile network. Internet access works just fine.
Now, if I connect to a WiFi network using the same settings, not changing anything, it will work just fine.
I contacted T-Mobile, and they said I need to contact Google about this problem, as it's not their fault that no apps can connect via their network.
So, XDA members, what do I do?
Switch providers! :laugh: Sure that would mean moving to Canada if you wanted to use another provider that supports the Sidekick, but would that really be so bad?
In all seriousness, I have utterly no idea.
It's a Microsoft conspiracy. They want you to switch to Windows Phone. Just kidding.
Sorry. No clue on that one. It seems like the apps are configured to only work on wifi.

No idea
If it was all apps, I would suggest talking to T-mobile about the status of your ESN, but you indicated you had net access otherwise.

Yeah, I have net access otherwise just fine. Even my gmail works fine over T-Mobile. But trying to access my hotmail via it, will tell me "Cannot connect to server", or a variation on that error depending on what email app it is.
Wifi works just fine... I don't know what to do. T-Mobile is still adamant that their network is fine, and I need to "Call the Google" , as a rep stated. XD

I'm pretty sure it's just the web interface changing, and phasing out the old web interface. the email addresses remain the same.
That's exactly what it is, just saying I have never had an issue with gmail on an android
But maybe. This may help

Anyone have a clue why when someone sends me or my wife a text via GV, we get texts on both phones ? I looked everywhere and I cant figure out why this is happening. We exchanged phones recently and I completely removed all accounts from both phones and uninstalled GV....in fact Nexus 5 was wiped as well.
edit: we exchanged phones NOT sim cards
may be it has something to do with the hangouts application. Just a wild guess though

what do you mean desktop mode ? If you mean check Google Voice settings then I already did and no one touched them to begin with. They all look normal, my account ONLY has my number and her account ONLY has her number. It worked fine this past Saturday, then we haven't used GV, and after we switched phones I noticed this issue.

Yes he means Google Voice settings on the web (not in your phone):
https://www.google.com/voice/b/0#phones
When you switched phones, you should have changed your mobile phone registration at that site for each of your accounts.

We switched the hardware, sim cards stayed the same. So its not like I am using her number with my Google Voice account....I am using my sim card with my phone number with my google voice account
PS. calls work fine. Its the texts that go to both phones. If i send a text to her, she gets it and i get notification too, if someone else texts me, she also gets the text.
Check the devices under accounts and see if there's multiple accounts on one phone. You should be able to figure it out on a desktop in Google voice in settings and user accounts. Maybe its linked on a computer with multiple account

Thats the thing, I looked everywhere already. I just reset her Moto X and it seems to work from her phone but not from my N5. Also weird because I reset my N5 before I used it, I guess I have no other choice but to reset it again....what a pain in the ass at almost 11pm.....
Clear cache and data in the Voice app?

Search if there is any application which record the phone activity (via changes) so that you can get the culprit.

If you are on Sprint, make sure you both don't have Google voice integration on their side.

Check if app has sms integerated in default sms app. Than check if the default messaging app is not GV. If not any problem here than its the account for sure. Both your and your wife's phone number got attached to whether your account or hers. Check her GV account settings too. Check which device has priority too.
Just recently got myself an N5 from an iP4s, all is going smoothly apart from exchange.
On the first sync after putting in all the log in details into the stock mail app for GoDaddy's server, it puts up a notification saying that it needs access to a lot of different things like PIN, auto delete, etc etc, if I decline, it won't sync, just wondered if this was normal, never had anything like on the iP4s, not that I'm saying thats a bad thing!
appreciate its not a N5 specific issue but anything help would be gratefully received
That's a normal issue, my work exchange email requires similar admin. privileges. I have to accept in order for it to sync.

Yep normal. Unlike iPhones, exchange admins can force PIN security on users. I like that

Hi,
Since some update ago, not sure which one, my chrome browser shows that I have Wikipedia app installed when I don't actually have it. I don't know where to even begin to troubleshoot this issue other than add and remove the wiki app.
Attached are some snapshots of the issue.
Your help is really appreciated it, thank you.

Exact same problem on my Nexus 4. I even did a factory reset and the association came back!
Anyone out there with new information?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Before updating to the newest chrome, clearing data in privacy fixed it; but that's not the case anymore. I DID find out that it seems to be linked to my google account. Logged out of chrome, the association went away. Logged back in, repeat the same search, and it's back.
Title says it all, my contacts can't sync and i tried google-ing any fix but no avail
Can anyone help me
BTW im using three devices with one Google Account but last time i checked it didnt cause the sync error

I had something like that about 2 weeks ago, but after some time and rebooting both phones (don't know if that has anything to with it ) they synced but not all at once. It took a few hours after the first contact until it was ready.
