Seeing this too. A little wary on whether or not I want to install it.
Just found this:

Looks like we're in the clear.

Even so, I can't say I'm happy about Facebook forcing me to update with what ever permissions it chooses.
I can see me uninstalling it very soon...

My coworker had the same thing, only her download froze. Couldn't tell what was going on, so we killed about every app on the phone trying to get it to stop (plus rebooting, uninstalling FB, etc). Finally figured out it was actually doing it thru Downloads, not the Play Store.
That's the straw that broke the FB camel's back for me... uninstalled the app and went back to using the mobile website. I like it better anyways.

Fake mail app update on Market (I mean Google Play)

Today I found an update .. it's in Russian (I'm not) and it seems to be update to email app. It can be downloaded and installed, based on comments (I did not do it). Looks like malware .. any ideas how is that possible ?
It says MTC mobile mail (but in russian) by OJSC Mobile Telesystems.
Got the same thing too on my play market, I felt that there is something fishy with it, so I didn't update till I figure out what exactly it do.

Forgot to mention that I'm on stock rom, didn't root or install any custom roms, yet.
I'd advise everyone not to update and report the app to Google so they remove it from the app store.

got that update today. I haven't updated it because I never installed the app in the first place.. Weird!

I've seen that. I have also "testfile" app installed on my SGS2. I did not install that. Cannot uninstall, only "open" option available. Any ideas what that is?

Just now tried it, and was playing dark siders on it. Have you tried un installing and reinstalling? I'm sure you did, but just figured I'd ask just in case...

Bump, would love to get this working....
Works fine for me too - must be an issue with your device.

Onlive may not be around much longer. At least not in its current form.

They were bought out and put in a protective bankruptcy status that is similar to receivership. Their investors and the receiver/protector have huge vested interest in keeping onlive around. But settop boxes might go the way of the dodo.
Works for me

Weird Google Login Error Popping Up Regularly

The above pops up sometimes on its own, as well as generally when I get an alert for a new text or the like. But my Google Account is already synced and seems to be in working order for the apps that need it. And when I click through on the above to try and log in, nothing happens.
Any thoughts as to what is causing it, and how to fix it? Been having this issue for about a week now (which induced me to try and upgrade...was not pleased with the experience, so I reverted to my most recent backup, and the problem is thus still there.
I'm not running sac's rom, but I heard there is a fix for that error in the rom thread. Do a search for google sign in error in the rom thread.

From a computer check your Google account setting to verify that two factor authentication is turned off.

It happened after I recently installed the most recent security update for June. It seems that the issue only happens with my home screen, my app drawer works fine all applications work fine, the phone works perfectly fine it's just the home screen that's all bugged out.
I've turned the phone on and off twice as far as troubleshooting goes and didn't solve anything.
Any clues on what to do and if you need any more info from me to troubleshoot it more. Thanks everybody
Clear cache and data for the home screen you are using, try a different home screen and see if you still have issues

Cleared the cache and data and tried different home screens. It's still just bugging out
Seen this on reddit. Some are saying it's a feature, working as intended. https://m.reddit.com/r/Nexus6P/comments/4lv8wd/whenever_i_change_my_wallpaper_to_anything_that/
I think it looks pretty cool.

Update released to cripple Note 7 in US

I'm sure most of us knew this was coming https://www.engadget.com/2016/11/04/software-update-will-annoy-galaxy-note-7-owners-into-a-return/
I have my updates on "manual" and I was able to deflect the attempt that still managed to almost start. I ended u hitting later. I was wondering if anyone knew how to disable these updates from popping up via Root explorer which I think I seen before.
Thanks
Disable pro 6.3 ....

They got me. I stopped the update but when I restarted my phone it was bootlooping. I cannot find the PHE (last "green battery" firmware) update anywhere. Looks like I'm returning my phone tomorrow. It has been a good fight.
That sucks. That same thing happened to me when I got my second Note 7 and the update installed on its own. I think we'll all have to give in at some point. This waterproof body and camera, better radio and a bunch of other crap has me refusing to give in. My rooted Note 3 is waiting..
After installing and running the disabler app I noticed a "Setup Wizard" app icon in my app drawer. Wth is it? Don't remember seeing this prior and uninstall is blocked.
Anybody know if rooting Note 7 will help get rid of the 60% limiter and also all the popup wanting you to return your Note 7 if so instructions please.
