Every time I download an APP from the playstore it goes to my home screen. Is there away for apps not to download to the home screen.
Go to play store settings... voila!

Yep, open the Play store, go into settings and uncheck the option that says "add widgets to home screen"
This tripped me out the first time I d/l an app from the Play store but I quickly figured it out.
I didn't know this could be disabled, thanks!

I can't seem to figure out how to create an instant mix from a song using the android app. Is this possible?

It's possible. Just go to the "Now playing" window and press the settings icon in top right corner of the display. The first first menu item on the drop down list will allow you to create and play an instant mix based on the current song. The instant mix will now show "Playlists".
You can also go to "Songs" and press the triangle in the bottom right corner of a track and create it from there.
Thanks but I don't see the instant option anywhere. I see add to playlist but that is just a normal playlist with the album or song added to it.

That's weird. When I'm looking at the exact same screen as your screendump, I have the option just below "Add to queue". What version of Play Music are you on?

Hmm, I'm on the same version... You could try clearing app data and see if that helps.

So it looks like you can only start an instant mix with files stored on the served not the device.

So, all your songs are stored locally and have not been uploaded? That's the reason - they need to be uploaded in order for an instant mix to be created.
Makes sense. Thanks for the help

Anyone know how to stop Google Music from automatically creating Instant Mixes? I've never created one myself, yet when I go to my Google Music main page, there are several Instant Mixes that appear. I've tried looking through the settings, as well as searching online, but am unable to figure out what is causing this. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks very much.
Recently I have been getting spam ads in my notification bar I think it was from installing GNES lite but I'm not sure. also an icon appeared on my desktop that was some sort of spam. I'm curious if anyone has any tips how to isolate the source so I can get rid of it.

I would look into the settings of all the apps you've installed around the time you first noticed it. Other than that, it might be a process of elimination. How about checking the play store page for the apps too? I'm sure other ppl will comment on that in the reviews.

Glad you found it already. I thought I'd leave a little tip here in case you didn't know and need it in the future. If you long press on a notification an "App Info" button will come up which will take you directly to the app responsible for the notification. From there you can disable notifications for that app by unchecking the "Show Notifications" box.

Get Mupen64 or N64oid. N64oid isn't in the play store, but you can find it in other places. I personally find N64oid to work better and have some better options.

After using the AllInOne utility for rooting and adding a few of the tweaks, the interface of my tablet doesn't expand to fill the screen and instead shows extra border. This is on every app. Any ideas? I tried troubleshooting, but there's not much on the actual device to do. Too bad we don't have a PA ROM or something. =P Any help would be really appreciated guys.
I tried changing the DPI via build.prop and found that it just wasn't the problem. With some more observing, it seems that I don't get that problem in portrait mode. In landscape mode, however, it adds space to the sides of most apps such as Settings and Play Store.
Examples:
App Drawer
Play Store
Could you give us a screen shot?

This probably happened because of an update to google play, but every time I try to press an app from the search results, it doesn't register my tap or I have to hold it for a long time for it do go to the app page.
This only happens on Google Play.
Anyone else have this issue?

It seems to be a bug in the app. I experience this on my phone and my parents' phones as well.

I cleared data, force stopped and turned off the native app "Samsung WatchTV Video" and I can't get to it anymore. I can see it in app info but I can't do anything with it. Everything is greyed out except force stop. It's not in my app drawer. If I search for it in Google now it doesn't recognize it.
Any suggestions? Thanks

rbebber,
I got excited for a minute because I hadn't looked there. No go.. Unfortunately.
evilvoice,
I use Nova. Switched back to the native home screen, checked disabled app... Boom! There it is. Went back to Nova and it was in the app drawer.
Thanks guys
You're welcome
