Market officially out of Beta?

I went for the plunge and among everything else I noticed that the Market no longer says Beta next to it. Paid apps on the way soon?

does it allow you to clear the cache and search history?

stills says beta next to mines maybe you one of the lucky ones

oh ok just realized that after i posted? I heard you can see full app names, it show when there is an update available and, *drumroll* you can report comments as spam, anything else new?

Also, when in My downloads, when you long press and app it gives you a list
Details(takes you to the market screen, comments, version, ect.)
Open Application
Uninstall
Also new stuff for uninstall
on some apps and I don't know what flags it, but it will say "your purchase of this app has been saved, you can redownload this at anytime without repurchasing it"
New options for why you removed the app
I dont use or want it
I need more space on my phone
It's defective
It's malicious
I'd rather not say

Update is KOO
I know this update isnt what alot of ppl were expecting "Cupcake" but it has its improvements..
they actually fixed the voice dialer.. now u say the name and it actually brings up the correct one.. and the voice search is really accurate.. i mean REALLY accurate

Facebook notifications

ok coming from a blackberry to Android I have to say the Facebook app sucks when ever I get a notification ,yes it appear but it doesn't notify me on a comment and when I do open it it opens in the web browser. what's up with this its just stupid, the blackberry app was much better than this it would open the Facebook app when you opened the notification. is there any plan In the pipe line to improve this or even any mods I can use to improve this? sorry for any grammar typed on my phone in under 2 mins LOL.

There are some 3rd party facebook apps. Babbler (paid and Lite) and Bloo. I haven't really tried them so I don't know how good they are.

just downloading now will update on what its like

that's the perfect app takes a little setting up but if your having problems just ask me and ill be more than happy to give you a hand

Which app did you try? I downloaded Babbler Lite after replying and I like it much better than the official app. I haven't decided if it's worth getting the paid version yet though.

yeah im using babble lite its much better than normal Facebook I think I might buy full version just to support the devs who have made such a great app

Yeah, I'm thinking I'll end up buying this app. It's definitely the best FB app I have used.

setup
im having trouble setting up babbler, i have the full version. when i log in through babbler it just stays on the same screen that says babbler for android or something.
can someone help ?
thanks

ok well I did it thru the browser I had to go to the application thru Facebook on the browser (just search babbler on Facebook) and accept it and all then go to the application on your device and accept some more and then it all worked hope this help. they really need to sort this out this is the only big downfall with this app. anyway any problems anyone just pm me

Actually, I didn't have to go through the browser at all. I think the issue is that you have to scroll all the way to the bottom on the screen that seems to be just sitting there. At the bottom you will see the allow button.

thanks got it working.
i hope there is an update to the official facebook app for android so its like the one for the iphone which is pretty much perferct.

yeah you just need to wait till people begin to use android and it will begin to get the updates, i mean look at iphone apps there amazing cause that is THE thing atm, and blackberries also have a good following so the apps for that are normally ok, but as android is getting bigger and better ( imho its alredy the best) the apps will come rolling in like they did for the iphone/ipad

i just downloaded th lite version but i cant seem to get te notifications to work on mytouch,

Spoilers from Google Now

So, I'm not really sure if this would be right forum to post about this. I suppose since N5 has the most Google Now integration it could be. Regardless, feel free to move this if it's not in the right place. Anyway, I'm actually getting a little frustrated by Google Now in the sense that it's spoiling shows. I normally watch shows online the following day after they air, and Google Now gives me news about the most recent episode which often spoils the episode...just figured I see who else noticed this.

Turn off TV updates.

Yeah I should probably do that. They're not really useful anyway except when they tell me that one of my shows is on that night. I usually know anyway.
Edit: I actually can't seem to find it. I clicked on that magic wand but it's missing the tv updates.

Next time you get a TV update, tap the three dots on the card and it should ask you if this information is useful or whether you want to keep receiving those updates, then tap "no" for the relevant question!

I haven't tried the three dots. But it does sometimes ask me when I swipe away a card "was this card relevant" and I usually say no. Sadly, they still show up. I'll try the three dots though next time.

[Q] How-to DISABLE OTA UPDATE NOTIFICATION on android 4.4.4?

Hello. I tried Lollipop for a loooong time and now I'm sick and tired. I downgraded to 4.4.4 but I have a persistent notification in the status bar saying that the new system update to android 5.0.1 is available. But I don't want it!
Is there a way to disable that notification? It is very anoying. I tried to download FOTAkill.apk and put it in system/apps with rw--r-r- permissions but doesn't work.
I know that the simplest solution is to install a custom rom but I am very happy with stock rooted + xposed + modules.
I will be very happy if one of you have a solution!
Thank you!

But this will block ALL notifications. Isn't it?

Install Autostarts, disable all systemupdateservice receivers, reboot. Should be good to go at that point.

No. You can disable only ongoing notification. So, when you get system update notification, go to GB>ongoing notifications and block present one.

Thanks both of you! Both solutions works. I used GravityBox for the moment because it's the simplest one.
Thank you guys! :good:

The second one, but GB it's simples, fastest and I don't need to install other stuff.
Tell your sons that some years before Messi and C.Ronaldo there was another Legend, named Alessandro Del Piero He was the captain of my favourite football team (Juventus) from 1993 to 2013

We thought that this is Del Piero. But it is small picture and we were not sure. No need to explain this to my kinds. The older one allready got his outfit, but its one with white and black stripes.

Don't "block" or disable the notification, kill the receivers responsible for it or you WILL get wakelocked to death. Goodbye battery.
There's already a thread on XDA how to properly do this. Search next time.

Thank you man!

I'm in the exact same boat. I found that actually click on on the .apk file, and installing the app did something. I think it might be "working". But that means that while the update icon isn't in the top bar, it's still in the pull down menu. I still see it all the time! Any help would be terrific.

I froze the update file

This works for tmobile s4 & s3 to stop ota!!!
Sept 19th, 2015 2:30am Las Vegas, NV.
What I just did was get my device storage down to .667MB, turned my WiFi back on and it's not trying anything with the OTA lollipop update so it may be a bandaid but it gives me back my WiFi. Unchecking theSU "update automatically" does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO STOP IT! I TURNED OFF/FORCE STOPPED SU, KNOX, WFUpdates, Everything.... Carrier pushes it thru anyway. So it says its downloaded but it's got no place to go. For now that's good enough for me! My phone still says 4.4.4. & the update is in top left corner doing nothing.
WON'T LET ME SHOW SCREENSHOTS SO... all I did was literally copy EVERYHING from my SD card to my download file on device until I got down to .667MB ALL on my data plan only! Do NOT do this over WiFi or the update will come thru. Took about 2hrs lots of videos but the end result it worth it. It can't update because there's no room to & so far it's not trying to delete old files to make room (knock on wood), so for now maybe this can help anybody else who does not want Lollipop to destroy my s3 & s4.

How to disable Whatsapp checking for new versions of the app?

The constant popups are getting kind of annoying. And no, I do not wish to update (Whatsapp or anything) . I like the version that I have right now.
Was wondering if there's any Xposed tweak or something like that?
Thanks.

@unreal25, no, it's even easier than that!
Just follow these instructions, and you're good to go.

Thanks, but you got to be kidding? The updates install in ~0.1 s on my phone. I barely have time to switch to App Info in Settings not to mention click on Force Stop and Confirm.
Also the whole method sounds incredibly suspicious.

I've done my research, and that method has been recommended on no less than four different websites, all of which were forums and the user who recommended it wrote out the instructions themselves.
