I got a little syncing problem with my Galaxy S4.

It's really bothering me that my own profile pic won't update in the SMS messages. I've changed it to my local profile on the phone, and my google+ account. However, in SMS conversations, it still uses some really old pic I had in google+ when I first got the phone. I can't seem to get it to update.

It's not really a big deal, but it still bothers me :lol

Any ideas?

Okay so I have a .edu email that runs off Gmail. I can login on my browser, on my iOS Gmail app but not in the android Gmail app. It just says invalid password.

Any fixes?
No double Auth on the account
Do you have a different password for the account through Gmail? My webmail password is different than my Google password for my .edu account.

Hey guys, Im looking for the best Exchange email client available. I am currently using the stock Email app for work and for some reason, the fonts are ugly as hell and so is the signature. Quoting previous emails also seems to work, albeit not very well as formatting is extremely messed up.

I NEEDS HALP.

at least try touchdown. I used it for 4 years, well worth the money.

I just messed with that yesterday...mine was just the default cartoon picture. It doesn't import from any connected accounts so I had to manually change it.

I'm on the welcome screen. Swiping through it is laggy on a Nexus 4.

For some reason, it opened a spreadsheet I have on Drive as a PDF? Uhh...
Moving around said "PDF" is laggy as shit
Loading circle randomly shows up behind the < "Filename" area

This shit is sloppy as fuck.

It's everywhere not just on setup.

It also doesn't overwrite the OEM quick office, making an awful screen to choose defaults.

Embarrassing

No, it's littered throughout random areas of the app. For instance, press "About" in the overflow menu. Or create a new document.


I love the default app selection.

"Complete action using:

1. com.qo.android.sp.oem Quickoffice
2. com.quickoffice.android Quickoffice"
 
lol, try opening a PDF file with it and scroll really fast between pages. You get a frozen loading circle that randomly comes in and out at the top left. It even overlaps the text.

While the app seems like a complete clusterfuck at least it's worth installing for the free 10GB Drive storage. Whoo.

It opens Drive Documents as PDFs too. I guess it's just meant for MS Office files.

It is manually changed in my profile, but when I open up a conversation (or even start a new one and send a message), it still has the old picture. This is the problem.

Hmm, weird. Mine changed in the Messages app.

However, now that I think about it, it DID have my G+ profile photo when I went into my Contact details, however, it showed the default cartoony thing in Messages before I changed it manually.

Chalk it up to custom skins and the disconnect between core features I guess (I'm only staying with TouchWiz because of the damn camera and bluetooth profile support...come on Googley).

In Cook’s view, the incompatibilities between various Android versions make each an entirely different species. The Android operating systems are “not the latest ones by the time people buy,” he says. A recent survey of smartphones sold by AT&T showed 25 Android handsets; six did not have the latest operating system. “And so by the time they exit, they’re using an operating system that’s three or four years old. That would be like me right now having in my pocket iOS 3. I can’t imagine it.

I don't think people could tell the difference either way.

Seems to be the same as the email above. Looks like if you all signed up when I posted about it we should get in around the same time!

Unfortunately, AT&T is still selling Gingerbread handsets.

Gingerbread came out in 2010, so he's not that far off.

It's amusing to me whenever I look at carrier stores, and they sell 2 year old Blackberry devices for the same price as recent Android releases.

I wonder if people actually still buy these handsets or what it is that actually warrants these stores to keep the devices on them.

The fact that they stock them means that people are buying them.

It truly upsets me that someone is buying a Pantech Pocket running 2.3 somewhere. Why, God? WHY?

Now I got it to change somehow by recreating my local profile on the phone contacts. However, now I can't seem to merge the "Me" contact from HaxSync or Whatsapp to my profile. Whatsapp works fine however.

I really like iOS7 visually speaking. It's so light, airy, and refreshing. I agree on it being inefficient, though. It feels so compartmentalized. No thanks.

I really wish there was a darker theme and I could turn off those long transitions.
