General :: Remove (Welcome To Google+) And (Looking For More?) Messages?
Mar 27, 2013
I've been quite Google Plus for quite a while (though not very active with it).
On my Nexus 4 when I launch the Google Plus app and go to All Circles. It has this "Welcome to Google+" post with a couple suggestions of people I should add. Then below that is a post from my circle. Then bellow that is a "Looking for more?" post from Google suggesting yet even more people I should add.
My problem is, I already added quite a few people to my Circles. I'm set. I don't want to keep seeing this "Welcome to Google+" and "Looking for more?" posts in my Google feed. It's distracting and I have to scroll past this every time just to see what I really came to see.
I want to like Google Plus. But I use Twitter mostly and have a hard time trying to embrace they weird way Google does things with this app on Android.

I know the stock Messaging app has an option to remove text messages over xxx messages but it doesn't work. I have 700+ text messages with some of my contacts and I'd like something to automatically remove all the messages over 200, i.e. I'd like no more than 200 texts per contact.

My family sends out a plethora of group messages each morning that goes well beyond the "have a good morning". Just this morning I received 15 texts in 30 minutes from five of them. One will start the conversation as a group message and the others jump on the bandwagon. Is there a way I can "block" from receiving group messages? I want to still receive individual texts from them - I just never want to receive a group text. Asking them to not include me in the group has not seemed to work. Just hoping my phone has an option to block.

how to remove a suggested place by Google Now? what's the real ETA from wherever I am to my actual home because Google now keeps suggesting me a place I haven't really been to, I've passed by that place because it is on my way to almost everywhere I go but I've never actually stayed more than 2 seconds there.

I have a Galaxy S4 and I set a google reminder to remind me to buy something when I am near a store. I didn't realize the reminder would go off every single time i pass within half a mile of the store. When it shows up on my phone, I can only click "snooze" or clear it, which will have it pop up again. If I click on the reminder, it just takes me to the default Google Now page that has the search screen and weather, etc. I tried removing it through Google Calendar but a search of my calendar shows up nothing matching it.

I've been playing with various widgets, putting them on the home screen & building groups of apps to keep the screen simple, so I can actually see my wallpaper. (Nothing special, just pics I like.)
Problem is that huge Google bar at the top. Is there an simple way to get rid of it, like the select-drag-drop for other home screen stuff.?Also, there seems to be some limits on where I can actually put apps or widgets. Is there a way to adjust this too?I'd really like to put a dashboard widget in place of that Google bar.
Finally, is there a way to disable Google when I select or swipe nearby the bottom of the screen?
This is a real pain-in-the-patootie when playing solitaire & the cards get near the bottom of the screen.

I recently ordered a Rikomagic MK802 II: Amazon.com: Rikomagic MK802 II New Generation Mini Android 4.0 PC Google TV Box HD IPTV Player: Electronics
I was intrigued by the concept of a mini PC and thought it could be a good way to get YouTube, remote potato, etc. on my non-smart tv. When I first got it I plugged it into the TV and plugged the USB into my laptop for power, it started right up and worked fine. I connected to my wifi, synced my Google account, and downloaded some apps. I also removed all the Chinese apps that came pre-installed on it..After awhile I powered it down with the "power off" option in the task bar. The next day, and several attempts after, I could not get it to boot back up. When I plug it in, it starts to boot and the Android screen comes up for awhile, then the screen flashes white and it starts over, and continues cycling like that until I pull the plug. I've tried USB power from my laptop, a powered USB hub, and a USB wall charger, all with the same result.
I don't feel comfortable sending it back to this manufacturer with my account synced to it. I've pushed the hard reset button inside the device with a pin while it was powered on, but I'm not sure it had an effect. I can see the device on my Google Play account, but can't see a way to remove it from there.
what I could try to get this device booted, or any steps I can take to remove it from my account without getting it booted. I suppose if I change my Google password, that would prompt all my devices (including this one) to re-enter the password next time it's booted?

I have a rooted phone. Is there a way to remove Google Play but keep other Google apps?
I am looking for a way to do this manually (through adb/shell). Is it a file in /system/app?

Having flashed multiple Android devices other the years, I'm now having a problem since the 4.0.4 Galaxy Nexus update: I can't use Google Music anymore. I have apparently reached the "device limit" of synced devices.
Browsing Google Groups, a small number of people are apparently in my case, and none of us ever found a way to un-sync "old devices" from our accounts.

My phone was just stolen and so I am temporarily using an older Gingerbread device I had laying around. The problem is that my wife used it for a period of time and so its "locked" to her Google account. I realize that with root its fairly easy to disassociate the device from the primary Google account, but I have been unable to find out how to do it WITHOUT root. I really don't want to fully wipe the device if possible! The phone in question is running 2.3.4.

I have Sprint and an integrated google voice number. I also have a tablet I use to send/receive GVoice messages. Problem is, only the received messages will show up on my phone...any message sent through GVoice isn't there. Ps, I understand WHY, just looking for a way to get around it.
Is there any app/technique available (searched FOREVER) that will allow my phone to sync up with the sent messages from GVoice? Essentially, I want to be able to have a gvoice only conversation on the tablet and have the same conversation show up on the phone.

I have started using Waze for my GPS navigation needs. The problem is, I had previously told my phone to use Google Maps Navigation (or simply "Navigation", the one with the blue arrow icon, instead of the other option at the time which was TeleNav GPS Navigator), but I can't seem to remove that default app setting.
I have gone to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->All to look for the Navigation app and clear "Launch by Default" setting, but it does not appear in the list of apps at all.
Is this a thing about Google apps, that they are kept hidden and forever locked into being your default app once you tell it so? I thought maybe it was part of the regular Google Maps app, but the setting there says there are no defaults set to be cleared.

I need to delete Google Play Service completely from my phone or totally disable it! Even when I disable it, using phone "disable feature" Google play service and all it's apps are still eating my battery 45% (Running). The only way to kill it it's root my phone? I can't find way to contact Google or Android there is no email on the internet! Many people want to delete Google Play Services I've seen a lot of threads but found no solution! I don't need Google Play Services at all.

I've been looking everywhere and I haven't found an answer still and it is frustrating the hell out of me.
When I go to messages, it lists a ton of e-mail addresses and duplicate names etc etc. When I go to people, these are not listed.
It seems like it is listing every single e-mail address i have ever e-mailed from my gmail account. How do I get rid of this??
For example: John Jones is not listed in "people". But if I go into messages, and check the contact list, it will show two entries:
"john jones: johnjones@gmail.com"
"john jones: johnjones@yahoo.com"
I was able to remove all of the facebook contacts it automatically added, which was stupid to begin with.

I currently have an iPhone 4S and I am probably going to get a Galaxy Note 2 when it comes out for Verizon. In order to prepare for this, I set up Google Play Music to upload my music so it can be ready for me when I get my new phone (I like it better than Samsung's default music player). Only one problem: protected AAC files (or DRM) can't be transferred to Play Music. I tried converting my music with 2 different DRM converters, but they were free trials, and it only would convert 1:00 of each song and then stop. Is there any free way to convert each protected song completely, along with protected videos? Also, does music on Play Music eat up an Android device's space? I have over 12 GB of music and movies and I don't want to have barely any any space left on a 16 GB device if a 32 or 64 GB ever comes out, minus the SD card.

Not sure if there's a master post anywhere, but I want to remove basically all pre-installed Google crap, except for Gmail. So that would include: Google+, Talk, Books, Music, Movies. Google has been integrating Google+ with everything and I do not use Google+ at all, but I want to be sure this is safe for using other apps.
If there is a master list of pre-installed APKs etc. that are safe to remove somewhere

I have been researching "remove second google account" on my incredible and nothing but factory format. Is this only way to delete/remove second google account from my phone? I'm using google Apps Standard Edition which is using my own domain name. Everything is ok till I add second gmail account like xxxx@gmail.com. I would like to remove it but, it said "This accont is required by some applicatins. you can only delete it by resetting the phone to factory defaults" Try kill all programs and try to remove it but, it didn't work. Call verizon and spoke with them two hours. they transfer me here and there and no solution but do a factory format.

I have created a new google account that i would like to replace the original one.I have synced the new account but cant seem to remove the original. I get the following message, This account is required by some applications. You can only remove it by resetting the phone to factory defaults. You do that in settings, under privacy. Is there anyway to do it without resetting the phone? I dont want to reset it as i the phone is rooted, has custom ROM with over 100 apps.

I've seen a fair few posts about the mail app being slow; I'm also in the same position. Does anyone else want to remove some of the Samsung and Google apps that come preinstalled, and are seemingly impossible to remove?!
