When GMail or GTalk for Android doesn’t works

October 23rd, 2010

A few days ago, stopped running the native applications on GMail and GTalk for Android that come installed by default in Android. Others may not use them, but for me the fact that GMail and GTalk not work was something that killed inside me. GMail for example I download messages stopped and gave a lot to update, no new messages and download directly, GTalk I opened, I carried the screen "loading" and briefly disappeared, ie, GTalk doesn't open. As a workaround I set the mail from HTC and install the Fring, but mail from HTC but much better than GMail, I prefer the lightness and speed of GMail, and Fring, directly I do not like, besides that the time to have it open and be in the home is closed I just do not know why.

Seeing that this was something they were doing a change from Google, I decided to fix it. The solution has been rather more simple than I imagined, as always, a cleaning program is best, and therefore we're going to Settings> Applications> Manage Applications and once here, we should look for applications that call "Gmail", "Gmail Storage", "Google Talk" and "Saving Google Talk". In each of the chips must erase the system data and to do so by pressing the "Clear" and ready, but that if, in the 2, program and storage and if you're like me you not function or GMail or GTalk They have to do it in 4. Once done, we can open new applications and GMail will receive mailings, but will have to sync and if you take a lot of time, but the GTalk works on the first run.

I hope you have served this small fix GMail for Android or GTalk for Android when not working.

Looking parking with Open Spot for android

September 2nd, 2010

Looking at the Google Labs site, I find an application for Android that Google has developed a little odd. The application in question is Open Spot, this is a program similar to a GPS with Google Maps, which shows free parking spaces so we can park. The operation is very simple, a user who will be traveling with the car, tells the program that will leave your car free, though I suppose it can also be done on foot if we see a gap and automatically to users who are close and Open Spot for Android are open, they display a POI on the map indicating that there is a free parking place. The truth is that besides being an application rather curious, since it is very useful for those who live in large cities, we can save time and gasoline spent spinning based on apples to find the damn car. Note also that the user may receive karma of other users who have found the car through, so you can be so fun to use. Currently only available in the U.S., Canada and the Netherlands, but hopefully to Spain soon. If you want to let you browse the website of Open Spot.
