I think that belongs to one of the AT&T bloatware apps. Have you uninstalled them?
Edit: Nevermind. A quick Google search tells me that it's from the Google Latitude app.
Thanks for the quick reply.
I think the att bloat was removed with cog. So its with latitude? What can I do to stop it from turning on?

Uninstall it. Latitude is not from AT&T. It's a Google app.
Will uninstalling latitude do anything to maps, and gps?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
No. Latitude just reports your location for Google's social service.
I had this issue all you need to do is sign out of latitude

+1 for Trillian.
Where did you guys get Trillian from? I don't see it in my Market ...
Even though AIM kinda sucks, I use it for AOL and Facebook usually.
I even tried APP Brain to install it, but not dice.
ADB install it or use Astro or something.... Here's the apk (just got it off my DroidX)...

I use meebo. Used to use it for a cloud client till I found imo, but the meebo android client is nice. I tried the trillian beta but it seemed to sip more resources than meebo, but that could just be in my head. on windoze I still use trillian, and I haven't tried it since it became a paid app on android, so it could have improved.

It does work perfectly but it's odd that it's filtered out of the Market. You still have to side load it.

where are you downloading the apk from??
I just downloaded it to my phone and grabbed it for my xoom.

so your saying google voice installs as long as we sideload it?
This doesn't surprise me, since the issue with Google Voice was the same issue as the Facebook Widget and that works too.
It seems Google relaxed the API a bit with regards to null intents
I just back it up to my drop box.. here's the link if you want to download it

you can also get apps directly on your xoom by downloading from amazon app store. there's a ton of apps that work fine but missing from the market. and you don't have to go through putting the app on your phone then moving to your xoom, and you will get updates.
Yeah, found this out last week. Unfortunately, push notifications are STILL not enabled (you still have to select a polling interval).

I figured 15mins was the best compromise.
One thing I did was change my Voice Notification E-mail from my default account to my GMail account, which means I at least get instantaneous notifications, but even still that's a hack.
FFS Google- you can't make this whole?!
Confirmed. It works perfectly. Thanks for the heads up.

Umm' stupid question I'm sure but here goes...
If I install the voice from your dropbox does it replace the Google voice on the xoom? As in no more video calls, or does this just add capability to use the calling features? I'm so confused..

There's a Themes & Apps subforum for these kids of issues. Please use it.
Yep, same issue for me, starting today. If you read the market reviews, there's dozens of similar complaints, all dated today.

Ditto for me. Uninstalled and re-installed fixed it. Hope it stays that way.
I have that same problem. I am running on a stock rom 2.2 from kies update. I am rooted but have not flashed a custom rom yet. I have uninstalled and reinstalled a total of 3 times and still have the problem and yes I did do a reboot after I uninstalled before I reinstalled. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I think we just need to wait for them to fix the app, sadly. It doesn't seem to be any issue with the phones or corrupted data - it's something in the app itself. With all the people complaining on the market, I'm betting they'll post an update shortly.
I was checking something with this app before I put my phone down for the evening. When I woke up my battery was dead. Check out the pictures, stay awake 7 hours and it was the biggest drain on my battery.
I'll try the uninstall and reinstall to see if it's any different. Cognition 5 beta 2
Use FriendCaster (Pro) and you won't have any more problems.

Which AT&T app did you need to unfreeze to get contacts to work again?
I'm betting it was contact sync. I used to close that service all the time cause I didn't care if my contacts were being backed up by ATT. Turns out it was controlling my entire contact app.
Yeah it was the contact sync, if I remember correctly. Been so long since I was on the stock rom can't say for sure.

Does anyone know what I can turn off on maps location settings so that Google Now will still tell me where I am and bring up the same cards (i.e. The weather in the address I'm in, how long it will take to get back home, places to check in, etc.)?

I am guessing you can use Greenify and hibernate Maps so that it will only work on command.

Pretty much, yes. Also if you turn off everything under Location, you will not have to worry about that much anymore. There are ways to completely freeze or remove Google Now from your device, just use Google and you'll find many articles regarding this.

I don't want to remove Google Now. That's the whole point. I wanna lessen the Maps wake locks but still get the same Google Now functionality.

Yeah, I misunderstood at the time and I wanted to edit my post but I forgot. As I mentioned, use Greenify and Google Now should work properly.
