As some of you know I recently took mossefist's (bigups to him) Motorola BackFlip dump and posted it. Well, after downloading it and Searching it, I realized that it uses Google Search. But wait, it's suppossed to be Yahoo! isn't it? Her is my guess;
IT'S BEEN THEMED!
The Google Search bars have been themed to look like Yahoo!'s and probably lead to www.yahoo.com/[WHATEVER/YOU/SEARCHED], but it's still Google. Can anyone confirm if this is possible or am I just stupid?
Here's the message to Yahoo;
MAKE YOUR OWN OS! You have I think Yahoo! your own Calander Application, Contacts Application, and Yahoo! Mail for users. You have Yahoo! Messanger and everything else. All you need is Yahoo! Maps and that should be easy for you to make. I'm not saying you'll make a lot of money, but for the few people who choose Yahoo! over Google will probably buy your phone. You have Flickr, you have a fe good sources for the OS. You can add an Application Store and put it on the phone. Just try, it won't hurt!
Meant to post yesterday:
Anyone with a Sprint Tab notice whether or not they have this icon/app on their tab?
On the Sprint page it does state "Samsung Social Hub integrates all of the user’s social networking services, messages, personal and business email, calendars and contacts, and can display calendar information from portal calendars, such as Google Calendar, and social networking services together in one view with two-way synchronization"
i contacted Sprint Tech Support and the 1st rep tried sending the app to me, which i think was BS. Then i was put through to Level 2 Tech Support. Level 2 had me do a hard reset and planned for the Tab to take an auto update and hand me the app, which it did NOT. I was then told to go to a Sprint Store because this is a manufacture issue and they will swap out the device.
PS: Tab is 2 hours old
UPDATE:
Today i decided to contact Samsung Tech Support regarding this issue. 1st rep advised me to take my equipment back to where i purchased it for a replacement. I asked to speak to a supervisor and spoke with a "Level 2 Tech". He advised me that BOTH the Sprint and Verizon CDMA units do not have this app/feature at this time and expects a possible upgrade in the near future.
Tonight, not satisfied with the conflicting date i have received, i again contacted: a) a sprint corporate store and b) care tech support. The ditz i spoke to at the store advised me, without looking, that their demo unit did not have this application and would not let me speak to someone in tech & repairs. Called Care Tech Support again and explained the conflicts i have received the last 2 days and she proceded to contact Samsung, put me on hold and CLICK...
Still trying to find out if ANY CDMA UNITS HAVE THIS APP OR NOT...
ANYONE? ANYONE? ANYONE?
I have a tmo sgt and I have the media hub, dunno what social hub ur speaking of though
My Sprint Tab doesn't have to app/widget either.
Here's the answer you've been looking for:
No CDMA tablet have SocialHub. It's up to the carriers what apps they decide to leave/install/uninstall on their devices.
It's not on my Bell Tab either.
BTW, do any of YOU have the native Calculator application? I don't, and I miss it, since it is always on my default home screen desktop. The calcs on the market are all over-featured, though they work.
no calculator here either. weird they left that out
That it is.

Thanks, but no. If you go to the Sprint website under "Full Feature List" it states
"Samsung Social Hub
An integrated service that merges your social networking, contact, calendar and email information into a single interface. Social Hub is an easier way to connect with friends, family, and colleagues whenever you want, wherever you are. "
I do appriciate your efferts though

Yes, i have the "Media Hub" but NOT the "Social Hub"
go here to check it out:
http : / / socialhub (dot) samsungmobile (dot) com
Apparently it is an app that is carrier requested, but pre-installed. this app is NOT available through the market or any other markets for that matter and it is not a .apk file available from samsung or from sprint.

Hi everybody!
i'm struggling with a problem regarding google play music all access:
i just want to subscribe for the service starting with the trial.
i'm from italy and actually i live in the uk, since i've been in the uk i've used the play store in british pounds.
now i want to subscribe to the service but weirdly i see the page in italian with the price in euros and i just can't pay with my british credit card.
i reported this to the google assistance but after a few weeks they still can't find a solution!
the only think i can do is asking the community!!!
other informations:
google wallet: linked british address and british credit card
google play: all shown in pounds, previous purchases in pounds
it isn't a cache problem of the app, i've got the same problem on other devices and on the web as well.
now guys thanks for the help (sorry for my english!)
They mentioned this is due to the policy of the country IP. You need to log into Google Dashboard and change your location to UK. Also they mentioned normal browsing for a few days or weeks with a UK IP the change will be automatic. I used to be able to view the US Play store the same way but now I can't.
How can I increase the number of downloads for my android app on Google play? What promotions are best for this type of app? Here is the link https ://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.random_messenger.android
You might want to share your app on forums which deal with services like chat roulette, or in chat forums themselves. People who tend to often make use of chat forums might be interested in downloading your app.
Did you try promoting on Facebook and Twitter ?
Does anyone know a simple way to get onto the google store site from overseas? I've tried using Hola but no luck, and it seems to have changed as I definitely could get onto it a few weeks ago. I've seen the credit card stuff online but that seems rather laborious.
Failing that, I've subscribed to the nexus updates on google - will that tell me when its back in stock in the US?
I'm in CA in late Nov and want to get a 6P but avoid paying UK prices! The other option is through the Huawei store, but I'd prefer google's after service.
Cheers
Use a VPN service to create a new Google account, then you could access the store with that account.
But Google might not accept your credit card, even if it's international. They want it to be American..
