That is weird!
Are you rooted, or is device completely stock?
Have you downloaded any new apps that may have gone rogue or maybe a virus that you can think of?

I am using samsung galaxy note. I plan on getting the note 3, so I guess I accidentally just read note 3 as my device.

I'm guessing if I could uninstall any play store updates, I could update again, and everything would be fine. But I don't know how to do that.

Go to app manager click play store then uninstall updates

I tried that already. Wasn't there. Looked again, and realized it wasn't where, I expected it to be, because the name had changed to some unintelligible string. Cleared data, then removed updates, just as easily as I expected it to be, but I didn't look good enough.

I suspect you got hit pretty hard with malware.
What carrier are you using or what is the model number of your device, a mod will be by shortly to move this to the proper forum.
You may need to go and do a complete restore of your device.

[Q] Is Lookout app worth using or is it bloatware?

Question using Lookout, is it worth using or is it just something that bogs the DS7 down? Will it try to mess up any of the root apps?

I use it with no negative affects. Non-rooted. Slight slow-down during installation of new apps.

I removed it and I am pretty sure I get better battery life now, it sure seems like it.

Ok so count is 1 and 1. I mean I started using it now myself to see. Would be good to know from others tho if you all can chime in. =)
I havent had any problems with it since Feb 2, but I also have stopped a few processes - this being one of them... that have rendered the tablet useless for a min or two.

It is extremely useful.
Not only for a remote wipe or device location but also general security as well.
You can decide to not use a security app but when you get a malicious app or stolen device you will be kicking yourself

Galaxy note Help **REWARD**

Dear all,
I have recently rooted my Samsung galaxy note using this method:www .cursed4eva.com/root-galaxy-note/ which worked very well and i had no issues.
I then installed Beats audio pro from the play store and thats when i started to get issues like crashes and such so i uninstalled the app, then thats when i started to get a error message saying "Process system not responding" which would result in me losing control of my keyboard and i completely lost service and was unable to make calls etc(O2 UK).
I then performed a factory wipe and cleared the cache but this has made matters worse now when i reboot it only shows up for a couple of minutes then shows the "process system not responding" error message then goes to a blank screen with only the two lights at the bottom showing and i cant use my phone at all.
Please Help ill paypal anyone who can get my phone to work again.
Oh and Hi im Nathan nice to meet you all
Put the phone in download mode. Use pc odin to flash latest ICS rom.
Please PayPal Nokia model n91 10 million dollars or 5 million euros. Whatever is easier for u

Not sure what the point of the last thread was. It's possible that the hot fixed had a virus? Be careful about the sites you choose for Android tweaks, it's incredibly susceptible to viruses. I could be way off here.

Am I missing something here. Where did the virus come from?
It's not difficult to add things into an app. They're saying that someone could have embedded a virus in what he used for root, to hijack his phone.

Problem with XDA app

I can't seem to post or respond to posts on here on the XDA app on my One says something about a security feature is missing, no problem on my Nexus 7 or i didn't have any problem on my old Galaxy S3, any ideas why this is happening?

It isn't the app; I use it almost daily from my One.
What else could it be, tried uninstalling and downloading ago but get the same message.
Everything else is ok, can read posts and subscribe, etc but cannot see a function to respond to or create a thread?

Sorry, no ideas here. However I am using the premium app, not the free one. Don't know if that makes any difference (I don't see why it should).
I get this same error sometimes but not very often. I just clear app cache and data and then it works fine again. Not sure if it'll work for you but it's worth a try

The app cache! Doh! Why didn't I think of that...
I'm afraid clearing cache, etc doesn't solve the issue still the same problems :-\

Try tapatalk 4 beta. I'm using it and it's working like a charm. Sometimes I get the security issue but closing it (pressing back when on the main/home screen) and then opening again works.
It's already available in the play store
Remember it's a beta though so it has its tiny issues (smilies don't show up correctly, they all show as the smiley or else in text) but it works and looks and feels very new and stylish
The only other thing I could suggest then would be to mention it in the XDA app thread. You may be able to get a solution in there.

Firmware leaked? R380XXU0BND9

I was browsing and found this article... not sure how reliable the source is but has anyone else heard about this? If so has anyone tried it out yet? I'm guessing we somehow use Kies to install it...

Check and u will see u are on r381 already.

R381 is the model number of the gear 2 neo , the link in op is showing a newer firmware version then we currently have on the g2n
It would be nice to see a bnd9 change log.

Yeah, I saw there was another thread in the Gear 2 forums (they should probably combine them!). They said the same thing about it being international or something. I read one post saying they installed it with Odin, not sure if that was true but I will just hold off installing it.
Thanks!

I have no issues here in US. I flashed the Greek firmware in Odin and all is well through a normal day of usage and apps install as usual via Samsung Apps. I'm about to try reverting just for shiggles and see how that goes, for no reason other than curiosity.

Ditto... somehow no one has posted anything about what this build has to offer. I find that sort of strange.
I honestly haven't noticed anything much. I did notice that the occasional artifacts left behind by a previous screen when scrolling through my apps seem to have stopped. Other than that no visible changes to me.

I'm also in the US. So flashing the new firmware (Greece) didn't notice much difference? I'm also assuming it did a master reset flashing with odin...

Hi guys, there's a new official BTU firmware available via ota. Change log lists s health improvement plus ui improvement. Will test and report anything extraordinary. Personally I'm hoping the pedometer learns to count steps and the heart rate sensor to stop jumping from 70 to 140 in a few seconds.

XDA app and Amazon app get stuck?

Has anyone else noticed that the XDA app sometimes loads a thread immediately and then other times it gets "stuck" where it can take a very long time to load? When it gets stuck, I can click back and then click the same thread again, which sometimes will load it quickly. I notice the exact same behavior in the Amazon app when clicking a product. It happens on both WiFi and LTE and has happened with every version of android so far on the N6.
I use XDA and Amazon all the time so this is a particularly frustrating issue for me.
UPDATE: here is a video demonstrating the problem with the Amazon app:
Amazon App getting stuck on Nexus 6: https://youtu.be/bjDayQJVV3g
Which XDA app? Theres like a million of them. One of the tapatalk versions?
I'm using the XDA premium app.
I'm not convinced that it's an issue specific to the app though because I didn't notice this on my Nexus 4 and the exact same issue happens in the Amazon app.

XDA premium is based on Tapatalk and Tapatalk has problems on this forum. Its specific to this forum too, because taptalk works fine on other forums I use. I think the API on XDA for Tapatalk is outdated and since XDA are working on their own new XDA app (XDA One), they're probably not going to be too bothered to fix it.
Not sure about Amazon
Tapatalk has gone into the toilet over the years at this point I would honestly pay to go back to an old version. The iOS version is such a monstrosity and just so horrible its at the point of being unusable. if the thread I want actually comes up and displays I feel like I've won something.
Sent from my Google N6 on VZ
Thanks for the replies. Seems like this might be something a new XDA app could fix.
Here is a quick video I made showing the Amazon issue:
Amazon App getting stuck on Nexus 6: https://youtu.be/bjDayQJVV3g
The first 2 products open fast and then the third gets stuck. I click back and re try 5 times and on the last try, it opens fast like the first 2 did. Anyone else have this issue with Amazon?
Yes you are correct ..Those are the worse two apps to get "stuck".. Only other app is WWE SUPERCARD..Every other app is fine..I do believe it is app issues not phone related.
