Hi
When I looked at this phone in the store the salesperson showed me a function that I cant find, so hoping someone here knowes off it.
In the right corner she got a kind of half sircel showing up where she had different app shortcuts such as snapchat, facebook, settings ect.

Been looking around the market place but haven't found an app that will allow me to passcode lock certain things such as the gallery. Can you guys point me in the right direction? Wife wouldn't be happy if people got a hold of the phone and started snoopin
*found it*
Froyo!.... its whats for dinner.
App Protector Pro is what I use. Works great. You can put a password on literally any app you want. Email, Messaging, Gallery, Browser, whatever.
I can't find Google Maps on my TF300. There is no icon on the desktop and none in the installed apps screen.
However, when I go to the Google Store, it allows me to update the app, then allows me to open the app. It runs fine. After I close it, the app disappears and I can't find the icon.
Somebody clue me in... Please !!!
Have you looked for just "Maps"? That's google maps. On mine there was an icon on the desktop when I got it.

There is no icon named Maps, Google Maps, or anything similar. Since I did not delete any apps, it has me wondering about 'hidden' apps.
Did you download the Maps app?
I have maps on mine, starting from stock.
On the home screen, swipe one screen to the right. It's in a folder called "Google Services".
Make sure in your app drawer you are under the apps tab. Not sure if it exists on the stock launcher, but on apex i have a downloaded tab and it doesn't show any preinstalled apps under that tab.

My 'Google Services' has 4 apps: Search, Messenger, Google+, Play Store, Gmail, and Talk. My Settings screen shows that Maps is a Downloaded App.
Still no sign of an icon - and no easy to start maps. Am I the only one with this setup?
Strange, I've got 10 apps under my google services. Search, Messenger, Google+, Play Store, Maps, Places, Latitude, Navigation , Gmail and talk. And I haven't messed with that icon. Are you too far in to do a factory reset?

I'm sorry that you can't see my screens . I still have only 4 items under Google Services. BUT, suddenly Maps appeared in the App Drawer. I have not used the tablet all afternoon - so, no changes by me.
It is disturbing that we have such different configurations - right from the factory.
Go to market and download.....resolved.

Go to market, it says installed right? Uninstall and reinstall from there.
Hi,
I've just moved from iPhone 4 to Galaxy SIII and loving it but one thing that really sucks is the stock email app (tried Samsung one but installed stock ICS email app).
I can handle the annoying "show pictures" every time I open an email (please tell me is there is a tweak to show pictures by default) but I can't handle how the email app zooms in on emails and you have to scroll around just to read the email. It's even more annoying you don't have the option to zoom out.
I've included two attachments to show you what i'm talking about. On the iPhone it automatically zooms out and shows the email on one page (so you only have to scroll up and down) and if you want you can zoom in. On the stock android app, it cuts the email in half and you have to scroll right and up and down. You don't have the option to zoom out.
So i want to know if there is a tweak to the email app that allows you to zoom out? Since developers have the apk, can't they modify the default zoom settings? I don't want to use another app, I like the stock apps. I also use multiple accounts (Gmail and Hotmail) so I only want to use one app.
I've searched the forums but could only find this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574566
they seem to be having the same problem but no fix.
Please let me know of alternative options as well.
Cheers

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to talk a little about the best info widget for android.
Organizer widget combines the notification for everything you could ask for, in a very descriptive way: Calls, Messages, Calendar, Email, Facebook, Evernote and more.
I bought this app because it deserved the money.
Yesterday i searched for it on the market and nothing.... what's happening GOOGLE, are apps i bought just dissapearing from the market without notification?
I payed for that app and Google just took it away from me, are they even allowed to do that?
Have a great day,
Daniel

How do you know that it was Google that removed it and not the developer? And of course they would have the right to remove an app if it didn't meet the guidelines. Why would you expect them not to have this ability?
I would expect Google to be more serious and let me know if an app that I payed for is no longer available. What would you do if you bought a big screen TV, and one day the store comes and takes it away, no questions asked? once you buy an app from the app store, you have the legal right to own a copy of that app. Luckily I had a backup done only a day before, but allot of people did not.
My new p20 has this weird situation happening. I ordered it and arrived yesterday. It quickly auto-updated a bunch of apps when I logged in through the google play and in the list of apps it shows swift key. it is a keyboard app if you are not familiar. The thing is it shows installed in google play but I can't find it on my cell phone. I checked the app drawer and everywhere but I can't find it. Anyone knows what's happening with this app?

It doesn't show on regular Huawei launcher, with e.g. NOVA it shows in the app drawer for me...
To access settings: settings - language and input - virtual keyboard
