Just wonder if there is a way to lock out certain apps like vzw nav and vcast? I wanna give my tab to my going to 9yr old step son for his birthday. There is no CC attached to his Google so that is safe, but I know the vzw crap will get tapped if I don't lock it some how. He loves words with friends and angry birds.....hey he is learning how to spell better! Any help would be great!

Buy App Protector Pro. There are several like it on the Market, but that's what I recommend. Let's you lock whatever apps you want and toggle it on/off with a widget. I use it on my Tab anytime I'm handing it to someone who wants to play with it.
Cool thanks!

Somebody please get this up and going for the xoom
I was about to side load it....see how that goes.
XOOM
Why bother? It's a POS compared to WordFeud.
I was just going to install this when I noticed the app doesn't install on Xoom. I must say this makes me really disappointed and brings a huge spotlight to splintered status of Android.
That said, I find it hard to blame Google solely. I much rather blame EA. Its not like they couldn't have made the app work on both platforms.

I side-loaded it. It works but not great. It is 1/4 screen and has graphical issues in the unused space. The music sucks too. I haven't gotten to play a game yet but the game does seem to run and the HC3.2 full screen trick will probably handle the screen size issues.

Can you post a link to the APK, I would like to give it a go even though it apparently only partially works. Or send to [email protected] Thanks!

I loaded it on my TB, haven't tried moving it to my Xoom yet...
It is disappointing that this new Free version doesn't support "local" play only... or play against the "computer."
Anyone get the apk out?

That would be warez, unless of course you are asking for the trial version. The trial version does suck a$$ though. See below.

+1 It is pointless for me, i just wanted to grab a quick me vs computer game to try it before i buy it.
There was a free version of scrabble. So that would not be warez. Anyone know where to find the apk in the file system? I can pull it from my TB or tab.

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update
Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing
If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?

Not sure if they have created a hack to get around this problem. but rooted users need to beware of renting movies, it will say you cant watch the movie after you've already paid for it

ever since installing this, I'm getting a lot of force closes on a lot of different apps. tweetdeck, roam control, titanium backup, and a few more. I'm flashing a backup to see if that fixes it. will report back when I do
Edit 1: I went to applications > Manage Applications and deleted updates from market to see if that would do the trick first. after doing so, now the market force closes like crazy. flashing backup now, will most likely report when I wake up tomorrow
Loving it so far want to download a movie but a lil scared maybe tomorrow so far so good

The new android market has got an update. It now includes an option to +1 apps and the ability to pin lock for safer purchasing. You need to enter that pin everytime you make a purchase.
Cool,right?
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
I downloaded the APK yesterday, and I'm a big fan of the PIN-lock. I feel better knowing that nobody could purchase a bunch of apps in the event that I lost my phone somewhere.
Does anyone have an update package of the new version? Can't install the apk.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App
Yeah well, why not just use a PIN on your lockscreen? Otherwise someone could also use your phone to call up phone-xxx lines for 3.99/min (;
Anybody please post that link.

An elderly relative of mine shall be getting herself a Nexus 7 tomorrow, which she plans to use mainly for e-Reading plus a bit of media usage in the form of BBC iPlayer. I was looking for an easy-to-use interface for her. Any launcher recommendations or simple customisations to make it just a little bit easier? I am sure she could use it as is, but making it easier so I don't have to teach her so much will be good.
How elderly? Talk back might be nifty. I tried it once, it was annoying as hell though

Instructions are poor. You get a quick startup guide on paper and then have to open the book section to read the user manual. I find it harder to learn about a system when I an constantly flipping from the manual to a page to try out what I was reading.

I was more just on about launchers which would allow her to have a nice, clean UI that isn't too cluttered.
Anyone know of such a launcher?

No problem. The only launcher that might suit your needs would be a heavily customized apex launcher.

Thanks. I can install Apex on my Galaxy Note, so I'll fiddle around and see what I can do on it.
Just empty the desktop from every single icon . Than..
1.on home screen Add icons that this person will use the most e.g BBC iPlayer (not sure bits going to work without flash), chrome, play store and a nice looking clock widget or something
2. Set each other screen with categories e.g one for books where you place the appropriate widgets and icons . One for videos and one for whatever else like notes calendar and other productivity ....
3. Do that person a favour and download some games .. yes games . You'd be surprised how often older people like to play ... ideal games would be mahjong, card games , also things like Bejeweled ,Zuma, scrabble type games
Stock android launcher is good enough trust me you just have to know how to organise it. Also wait for chameleon that might change things
