[Q] Google+ photos - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

U guys using Google + to auto upload pictures are any of u having issue were Google says they uploaded but there not showing in the highlights tab (pictures )They show in the camera tab with the little cloud with the check mark but not in the highlights tab . I dunno if this is app or N5 issue . guess I could be doing somthng wrong but there's not really much to those settings .
EDIT : if anyone has this issue a temp fix is to uncheck the 'only while charging' option or download a older Google + version till Google fixes it .... Guess there isn't enough with the issue that Google cares .

[Q] Google play only first 20 apps shown when searching

I have the Samsung Galaxy S2 with Hydrog3n Mod ICS.
The problem is that when i am searching for apps on Google Play, although it states there are like 700 similar apps found when searching. Only the first 20-40 apps are shown, it seems like i'm unable to move to the "next page" of the app list.
Anyone have any idea how i can fix this because i can't seem to find anyone with a similar problem...
Oh and Google Books seems to load the list fine, it's just the apps.
Wow! Didn't expect your problem to be so problematic
Hmm , that's weird . I don't have this problem on my Samsung Galaxy S2 . You can try to reflash the rom , if it still doesn't work , reflash the google app . If it still doesn't work , clear the data of Google Play Store.
Mine has a "show all" shortcut.

Fix!
Thanks for all the replies, but the fix is simple you have to go on to setting then onto apps. Find Google Play then uninstall updates, clear cache and data.
Problem solved!

You could just turn off automatic updates, and update when you're on wifi. Plus, large apps have the option to download over wifi only and it defaults on.

[W/O Root] [5.0] Enable Google Assistant on Lollipop!

Hi all​
I was just launching some activities from the Nova Launcher through which I accidentally opened the Google Assistant! With Lollipop! On a tablet!
Without much wait, Let's start
Pre-Requistites-
Latest Google App(Mine was 7.3.18.21)
An Android Lollipop or Lollipop+ Device
Nova Launcher
A Working Brain​
Let's Go!
Open Nova Launcher
Long-Press on Home Screen
Select Widgets
Click on Activities
Scroll Down till you find Google App and Click on it
Scroll down and select com.google.android.apps.gsa.staticplugins.opa.hq.OpaHqActivity
A Google Assistant icon will appear on your screen, click on it
Click on Your Stuff
Click on add reminder and then close it
Open Google App, open menu, and then Settings
There you should see Google Assistant
Your turn, teach the Assistant your voice and start playing with it
Do not even try to post a "Thanks". Press :good: button if you want to say thanks, it really helps a lot!

Credits-Me, Who else?
UPDATE​Google App's June 28th update(7.6.9 Beta) just removed the Your Stuff screen. Users who already enabled Assistant by this method have this screen. Other users with latest Google App can't enable Google Assistant by using this method. I recommend downgrading to Google App v7.3, enabling Assistant from the above method and then upgrading to latest one.
UPDATE 2​Google App 7.10 update doesn't let people use Google Assistant if they don't meet the requirements, >1.5 Gb of memory and 720p or higher screen resolution.
There's a workaround, to use Google App v7.8 till there's another workaround :silly:. I need someone to test this out as I have 2GB RAM.
UPDATE 3​Google comes to the rescue and Google Assistant is now available on devices with Android 5.0 and above!Just make sure you meet all the requirements and you're good to go.
UPDATE 4​Got Assistant working, with 7.1.2, and 1 GB RAM! Google website still states 1.5 GB RAM as a requirement. So just test, and report it here.
Frequently Added Questions
When I open the Your Stuff tab, it is empty.
Change language to English(US) and clear the cache of Google App.(Credits to @Ezekiel3)
How can I use Assistant by long-pressing the home button?
Check out this awesome app by @Jovic77 here.
When I launch the activity, it just flashes for a second and goes away.
Clear data of Google App and Play Services, and then launch the activity.
I can't see Your Stuff tab.
Downgrade to Google App v7.3 from sources such as APK Mirror. You can upgrade to latest one after enabling Google Assistant.
EditNow you can't. Only those meeting the requirements will get Assistant.​

This method is working on smartphones also.
And also working on 1GB ram and less than 720p display devices tested on lollipop and marshmallow.

Thanks for your response but i guess its not gonna work for me i have tried every as you told me to do, but still same issue , blank page on your stuff
When I was testing this out, I came across the blank screen issue once after it had already worked. I don't remember what I did to fix it, but after a reboot and clearing the app data...eventually it just started showing up again.

As a user mentioned in the comments on my article, try changing your language to U.S. (English) and see if that works.

play store when screen is off

I have a problem with play store . When i start a download and screen goes off , the store doesn't finish the installation of the app until i turn on the screen. It go worse when i update or download a list of apps as i have to make sure screen is on all the time.
I checked the settings of wifi and battery optimisation and nothing looks wrong ( the play store app itself isn't in the list of protected and unprotected battery optimisation apps)
I did factory reset and nothing changed
Thx in advance

Device manager - screen off lock - protect play store from auto-hibernation after screen off
Had this problem since Gingerbread. You need to make sure Play Store isn't killed after screen off.

I don't have anything xalled Device manager, there is Phone manager but there is no option with this name as you mentioned
In fact there is protected apps that supposed to be apps not being hibernated when screen is off, sadly play store is not shown in the list

Go to Settings- battery-Close app after screen lock and untick the Google play store from the list.
Go to settings- APPs- setting-Speacial access- ignore optimzation-select all apps from drop down-google play store and click allow.
let me know if this works.
As you can see from the phoots, I don't have the same settings option as you said Shashank1320
(I am on marshmallow as I didn't receive update)
You can see also that Google play store dowlesnt have the option to be turned off or on when screen locks , but Google play books (also the usual other apps ) have this option

Your Play Store is way outdated. Try updating it to 8.0.22
I just bought the phone yesterday, tried to do system update but got ( no update available) and yes I did all available updates from play store

Not that. The Play Store itself. Download the latest version HERE and install it on top of the old one.

Refer my screenshot below
And one more thing, I think that there is no problem installing apps through 1. mobile data 2. wifi when I am charging the phone
this needs more checking as the downlading time differs according to the size of apps

Sorry for being late but I wasn't able to test yesterday
Unfortunately that didn't help, after some time the play store app goes to sleep and I am unable to change that.
I wonder if this is a bug in software version or my phone is defected :crying:. If anyone still on marshmallow and can have a look for me will be great.

YouTube vanced issues.

Hey I'm having issues with YouTube vanced. It logged me off the app for some reason and now it won't let me log back on. I have micro g download. I click on the account sign in part but it does nothing when it should send me to the sign in feature. Has anyone else had this problem?

Did you give the apps (both YT Vanced and Micro g) the right permissions? I had to do this as it's not turned on by default in the NEX.
Thanks for that tip .hit me that I did not. This worked. Enable under single permissions. See attached

YouTube vanced cast button not connect to chromecast
Just to let you know that YouTube vanced do not connect with my chromecast ultra. Just a few day before was using without issues. Do you have ideas what's going on? Cast button on the app show is working appropriately but not. When I touching the cast button show a message connecting to (chromecast) but just makes quick flash turning like white color but nothing happens.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy S8 let me know if I can send you pictures please. Thanks.

I Have instaled this app on my new p30 and the video in the background stops playing in around 30 secods or so. How can i solve this and make it play longer.
Hey mate,
That's the part dedicated to Vivo Nex, I assume you'll find more help on P30 part
?
I was having a difficult time reinstalling youtube vanced and microg to get login to work.
Ultimately would always hang up on the accept button.
The fix was to disable google chrome and then log in.
Then re-enable chrome.
Hope this helps anyone.

Thanks for hint. In my case, I had Google Chrome disabled and could not able to log in to Vanced. After I re-enabled Chrome, everything went smoothly. After successful login I disabled Chrome again because I am using different browser. Tested under Android 9 on S10.
