Anyone have a problem with their amazon app icons disappearing from their apps? I rebooted and several are gone. I can launch them by going through the amazon app, but it's a pain in the butt.

I always seem to lose an amazon app every time I flash a rom/update a rom. Never fails, usually the last one that I installed. Whether I TiBU'd days before flashing or immediately before.
But as far as the icon's disappearing, not having that issue.
You could always try to un/reinstall the apps... the apks should still be on your phone.... I haven't heard much about the icon disappearing, are they also gone from the app drawer?
As for jonnie... this may sound asinine but are you sure you ran TB after the lastest install and before the flash? That may be why the last app installed would be gone
Good Luck
PM me & let me know how it goes

Never had that happen, but I hate how amazon keeps a list of apps ive downloaded,installed, but have since uninstalled. Next to them it says " Install" I DONT WANT TO. lol I cleared data and cache under manage applications. Didnt seem to help.

The market does the same thing with all apps that you've purchased. And technically you're purchasing everything from the amazon app store.

+1 Be it free or paid, in Amazon market, everything is considered purchased.
So...lets say I got the app when it was free. If I uninstall it...then decide I want it later, when its not free, do I pay or does amazon know I got it when it was free?

I got talking cat when it was free. Then uninstalled. Now its $0.99 in amazon. But for me, I can still find it under "my apps" for free.
Once purchased is purchased, u'd become immune to future price changes.

Yes they still offer it for no cost. Once purchased, free or not, Its yours for good. It is your amazon account that records it.

OK I think I have figured it out... or at least a theory. I was in Korea at the time when it happened. I'm now back in the USA and after a reboot, they are back again. It's got to have something to do with location.

I think you figured it out. I know right after I flashed a custom rom, my amazon mp3 app started showing that I was in EU not US because the local had been changed so I couldn't buy mp3's till I fixed it. Media laws prevent me from using EU mp3 app.

I found that a couple of my apps from amazon were on the SD card. When I rebooted, the icons were not on the home page. After moving them to the phones memory, no more probs. Give it a try!
All mine are already there, so that rules that out.

Alright, I am throwing this here.
For some reason when I send a text, it takes 5-10 minutes for it to go out. I thought, well, maybe its the program, just not saying it sent it. But indeed, last night, I sent several texts to my wife, her phone next to mine. The first message I sent was received 5 minutes later. The second one, which I sent within a minute of the first, took 10 minutes. The third, again with in a matter of seconds, took 15 minutes. WTF, right? So I did some homework, and looked into this. I tried Handcent, no go. It must be with in the system itself and nothing related to the program.
Now on the reverse, it takes 15 seconds to receive a message.
I came on the web and did more homework, talk about account sync bogging down the phone, so I cleared that issue. Nope, still got lag. Reboot. Nope. Soft reboot, again, nope. Still lags. Problem with the ROM? Nope, I have seen this issue reported on a stock phone, here in the forums.
My option, as I see it, a factory reset. Please tell me I am wrong. On the plus side, I do a reset, and I take on Verizon's stupid update, and then push Clock and decrap.
Do it in clockwork not from inside android privacy menu. I definitely think its ur phone as I don't think anyone else has this issue. (At least I don't)

I occasionally get something similiar. I'll send a text and it stays stuck on sending. Rebooting doesnt help. The only thing that ive found to somewhat fix it is to put the phone in airplane mode.

Indeedy do. Now what would that system have to do with airplane mode? Hmm, my connection is more active on the awakening from the airplane mode. If I send a message, I get it stuck in sending. 5 minutes usually. But it will say I sent it 5 minutes earlier. I froze the stock messenger, lol, 10 minutes.
But when I initially send, I can watch my connectivity to 4g kick, for a second, and then nothing. Surprisingly, even 5 minutes later, it won't budge. But when I kick it out of the airplane mode, it goes nuts communicating with the tower, and completing my last messenging task. There needs to be something that I did when I snagged the rooting, and rom downloads. This didn't happen to me before, and it has happened to no one, currently. So I could go back to stock see what happens, run wifi, and download the root, and rom again and see what happens after that.
Yeah exactly right. Flash stock unroot.

Oh well, I broke it pretty bad, so I downloaded everything to fix it. I went to IRC and waited for someone with a bigger brain than mine to come along. Much to my dismay it was Regn. But mt was not toI far behind. They got me going in the right direction, and Cube came on and sealed the deal. So far everything is working good. I do have one issue with handcent doubling my messages.I cleared out the default, so that doesn't pop up, but handcent is giving me doubles. Thanks again. And I did wreck my phone on purpose, I saw enough threads to know where I was going, just not enough head knowledge to get me all the way there. God bless you guys, even Reg !!lol.

I started getting the double received messages with handcent for some reason. I just recently had changed to gosms, and now use stock and no more doubles with either.

Anybody knows what happens to your Nexus 7 after you reported lost/stolen? What does Google disables? How long does it take for Google to send you a new one?
Called Google and they say the 2 level department that handles losses usually takes 3-4 days for them to reply to you after you reply with "I CONSENT" which authorizes Google to disable your previous device. I am on day 4 so far nothing...
What exactly are they going to disable if I never received it?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
I don't think they can technically disable it. They probably just use the information for warranty purposes in case the tablet is ever RMA'd and so your not held responsible for any unauthorized play store purchases. Now I could be wrong but this is most likely the case.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Thanks for some of the info but still then why do they state on the email it will be disabled? Any other thoughts?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
I would think they remove any association with your Google account on the servers and might ban the device from being attached to your Google email/account.
It takes them a couple of days to contact the shipping company and do an investigation. They need to see if there was any signature, where the driver left the package, etc.
If they find your claim is on the up and up, I'm sure you will be sent a replacement shipment shortly.
Good luck.

Good question. Unless Google sends some sort of signal to the device once it connects to the internet that locks down the device, its hard to see how they could disable it.

It's a feature of their downloadable My Account/My Device app. It will deliver notifications when you reach your plan minutes, when your battery starts running low, and when it's been a long time since you rebooted. There's other stuff, all of which is disable-able Some of this stuff has been on that app for 3 years, back when you really did need to reboot on a weekly basis and not all phones delivered battery alerts.
Yeah I just turned it off on my sensation. That app is only good for telling you how many minutes you have left

This message comes from the My Account app for T-Mobile which I (and probably other people) use to keep track of minute, text, and data usage.
I also installed T-Mobile Visual Voicemail so I wouldn't waste minutes calling my voicemail.
Most carrier apps suck, but I find these two very useful

If it is anything like when I first signed up with my HTC One X, then it can take several days before you get the email through. If it hasn't happened after a week, send them an email. It'll get sorted eventually.

I'm on a sim-free device, also in the UK.
I got my 23gb. Seems to be a bit patchy.
If it's like when I got my one X you need to follow a set of instructions to get your 25gb space, I remember I needed to complete 5 out of 7 tasks like using Dropbox features installing it on another computer...
Just check the getting started page or something like that

I didn't get mine, but I didn't expect it. I had it from a previous HTC phone (expires December this year), and you are only entitled to it once per account.
If you read up on the drop box site if you had free space from another htc sense phone like one x you will not get it this time.

I got mine immediately as well (o2 Germany). Still got the 25gb from my old Galaxy S3 as well, on the same dropbox account, activated approx. 9 months ago.
