Play store doesn't hold my place - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Has anyone found a fix for the play store not holding the place you were just at if you scroll down? Its driving me crazy!

It only remembers your last place while looking at free/paid apps but if you go to "my apps" it always goes back to the top after looking at your installed apps.

Not sure you get it like if I search for an app and I go down maybe 100 apps and I check one out and go back it sends me staright back to the top.

Yup. Iiiiit suxxxx. Wish they'd.change that.

Also happening to me as well, thought it might just be ICS or Jellybean since I noticed it first on my new TF300T that was just upgraded to Jellybean. Still have Gingerbread on my S2 and it's doing it there as well. Maybe a Playstore bug?

yea, bug or feature of playstore itself. I hate it. So now I autorestore apps from fresh flash, or use TiBu. but searching for apps, make sure you got the name exact or use PC play store.

Is there something we could flood google with to fix the problem? Like every xda member send a complaint at once to a google support team?

I agree. A march on Google headquarters sounds more appropriate. Say it loud, play store needs options!

Cerberus Security App

I just wanted to let everyone know that this excellent security app is offering FREE life time memberships (licenses basically) until February 29th to mark having a hundred thousand users. To get it, just install the apk, create an account, than go here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFR4VHNka3czd2FJV2FIaXFYTHp0aGc6MQ
The best thing about Cerberus is it's root permissions to do things like force GPS on if it's off, take pictures if people try and access your phone and email the picture to you, and of course send it's location to you along with standard wipe my phone functionality. Definitely worth checking out. You can find it in ROM Manager or on the Market. If you get it from ROM Manager it will install the apk into your system apps so that it survives factory resets and will still provide all of it's functionality.
Oh and I'm sourcing the find to Android Police.

I hope not too. It seemed legit to me, but I guess we'll see come March 1st when the keys are supposed to be sent out. The app itself is very much so legit and is truly one of the most powerful security apps out there. I really hope this is real.

I hope it's legit. Looking forward to reviewing this app.

Is there some reason why you are resurrecting a nearly year old thread in the Evo 3D forums to ask a question about the Note 2?

There is an apk in the Theme/App section. I used it earlier for my tablet, my phone auto updated to it. Bill to account still worked fine for me, some were saying it no longer worked for them.

This is just the start of the changes. A lot of it is how it will handle how things work. Books will hold your place no matter the device... Songs bought on your phone will automatically be on your tablet.... Playing a game on your phone? Pick up where you left off in your tablet....
I am on EVO 3D GSM and still with old market. What does decide when will update appear on my phone regulary not to force it?

No Google Wallet with root?

Hey everyone I just rooted and went to setup Google wallet it's telling me it's now unsupported since I'm rooted.
Any ideas? Or workarounds?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Did you get the unsupported device banner? I got that banner on my rooted Nexus but Google wallet still worked at check outs.
Yes it says unsupported along top. I'll try setting it up anyhow.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Ya it should still work, least mine did. Used at mcdonalds and 711 even with the banner on display.
i read over in the EvoLTE forum that before you root you need to clear the data for google wallet IN THE APP (not with TB or anything else). And you have to do so every time you flash something. If you don't it is no longer secure
if you get the pop up saying the secure element is broken or something then google wallet is fried forever on that device. your not supposed to use google wallet and be rooted. i rooted and unlocked my galaxy nexus right when i got it and when i tried wallet i lost my 50 dollar credit and wallet access.

I have a galaxy Nexus and I know all about wallet. If you setup your Google Wallet on your device, even every time you load a new rom you have to clear Google wallet from within the actual wallet app. Open gw, then go to settings, then clear Google wallet data

if you haven't set it up I think you'll be ok. So people might wanna wait to set it up
I can confirm that Wallet still works even with the "unsupported device" at the top. Google just bought me Gatorade from 7 eleven.

So wait I am confused here. If I used the normal root procedure using odin, but already had it set up I can't use Google Wallet for secure transactions anymore ever, or is it just when I flash new ROM's? If I borked it when I rooted it, it would have been nice to have had that disclaimer on the root thread telling people to do this before rooting.

If it works very well/very polished, don't see why you'd say that then. I don't know anyone who doesn't use fb, techies included.
If XDA made a launcher, I wouldn't use it most likely either unless it had more options than the current launchers on the market. I sure as hell wouldn't go around saying this launcher is just for the techies though.
I don't see the harm in trying it out. I backed the Chameleon launcher and used it for awhile on my nexus 7. Then I tried it for awhile on my N2 when it came available. I'm not currently using it on either, but I don't see any harm in trying it out.

I agree. At least take a look and see what the competition is up to!
Most of you are replying about the launcher, where as I see his question is : "Anyone going to get the home?" meaning the phone itself.
To my answer.. No.
Actually, the phone is the HTC First which comes with Facebook Home pre-installed. I will not get the phone, but will try FB Home.
