[Q] "Set up Facebook account" Boot-up - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Every time I bootup my Note 3, a Facebook notification shows up on the Notification bar. When you click on it, it's titled "Set up Facebook account" and within it, it says "Galaxy Note III will receive the following info. ....."
This is really annoying, especially when I've already installed and logged-in to Facebook's App, now Samsung's own Facebook account keeps nagging me to login with permissions to grab my info.

It won't stop starting up every time you bootup, possibly until you log-in.
What gives?

looks like there's a similar thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252152

Same issue here.
On my s4 I pressed decline once & it never reappeared.

That is part of Samsung's Facebook Sync... I think it can be used for when you tell S-Voice to post a status update onto facebook. You can go into S-Voice, then settings, then towards the bottom, you will see where you can link facebook and twitter.

Go to your contacts
Then press the menu
Choose "accounts"
Remove the facebook account
That anoying notification is gone (at least with me worked)

New user Android question, regarding pictures for contacts

Hey all, new HTC Legend owner here and am absolutely loving the phone, but jsut had a quick question. I went into gmail and assigned some contacts (since I sync from gmail for contacts list) some pictures so our SMS chats would look pretty. And they do look pretty, but I can't figure out how to assign an avatar to MYSELF.
What I mean is, take a look at this chat message I'm having with a friend

Mine was like this for a while then it suddenly just started showing my avatar try resting your avatar in Google then force a re sync. Mine only started showing once I changed my fb image so give it a go

I don't use stock messaging app (I don't even have it installed), but I can tell you that handcent has option to add your picture.

[Q] Unable to access Google Account setup

I'm having a very strange problem today. I reflashed back to my previous rom and now can't access my Google Account which has always worked previously. I can sign in to gmail and receive emails, but when run the Setup and I click on Google Account - nothing happens. Also it normally says "Tap to setup" and now it's showing google_login .
I also went to Settings>Accounts & Sync and tried to add an account, but Google is not one of the options available. If I try to access the Market thinking I could sign in there, again nothing happens - press market icon and it just returns to the app drawer. I have seen some posts and articles from endgadget where there were comments about problems being experienced with the market, but has anyone experienced this as haven't seen any similar posts?

check to make sure you have accountsyncmanager.apk in your system/apps folder. I repacked my own system.img and took out some apps I didn't need or wanted and accidently had taken that one out and experienced similar behavior.

Thanks for the pointer, but the accountsyncmanager.apk is there in the system/apps folder.
I can choose to add Facebook, Twitter, Flikr accounts etc, but not Google.

Can anyone log into gmail.com via chrome in 4.2?

Since upgrading to 4.2, I can't use gmail.com in chrome. I use it for other accounts that I haven't linked. When I first went to gmail.com it automatically logged me into my primary account which prior to 4.2 it never did before. I chose to sign out and now it's caught in a loop constantly refreshing the url but nothing ever being displayed.
Are others getting this? If not, is there a way I can clear the cookies for just gmail.com?
I can.
All I did is it auto-logged me in and I clicked the menu icon on top left and "Sign in with different account", then just logged in.

Thank you for answering. I thought such a simple request but no one would answer.
It's strange, it will keep looping/refreshing in the address bar but no content ever comes up. However, if I request desktop version of the site, it does finally come up, but desktop gmail has always been extremely slow on chrome (I think it's actually slower now). Once I got in I successfully logged out hoping that would solve it, but once I go back to mobile it begins looping again.
I don't think there is a way of clearing all cookies/cache for a particular site in mobile chrome, but if anyone knows how I'd appreciate it. Otherwise I'm going to clear all of it's cache but I'll lose my saved logins etc for other sites.

[Q] Lost "My Apps" in Play Store

Until this morning, when I hit Menu in Play Store on my Nexus 4, the drop down menu would include My Apps. (Tapping My Apps would bring a screen listing all my apps, updated or requiring update download, and recently updated.) Starting this morning, tapping Menu brings a drop down menu with only Settings and Help. (Some posts say go into Accounts and make sure your account name/email address is correct, but I don't get Accounts to come up.) Any ideas to bring back My Apps.
Playstore update is now slide to see your apps. Just slide your finger from left side of screen (or touch top left)

the new playstore made some changes. Once you open playstore, click on the three lines on the left side. See the image below.

Thank you both. I just figured this out by pressing everything I could think of on the Play Store home screen. Headed back to post up the solution in case anyone was as lost as me. Thanks for posting the answer so quickly.

EMUI 4.0 Messaging features - cancel send

Remember undo setting of Gmail when you sent the e-mail and immediately realized something was wrong and you wanted to add/edit or cancel the email or the outlook setting where you can recall an email even after you have sent the email and recipient has received it. Sometimes these settings/features are really handy. Ever curious to have the same feature in our mobile messaging?
Now we have such cool feature in Honor phones. With introduction of EMUI 4.0, Honor has introduced a really cool feature of revoking the message or cancel the message if you accidently clicked on sent or you want to add/edit something to the same message. Yes, this is possible and a true reality now. You can always cancel the message sending if you quickly realized anything or wanted to have a second thought on anything. This option is available now with introduction of EMUI 4.0 updates and you can cancel any message within 4 seconds of clicking on the sent button.
