I got the Dutch message “Google is gestopt” on an older Android device which translates to the below English error message “Google has stopped”.
Below is the solution based on [WayBack] Google is stopped – OnePlus Community

- Go to “Settings”
- In “Settings” go to “Apps”
- In the application list, browse to “Google”
- Uninstall all updates (sometimes this is under the hamburger or 3-dot icon)
- Confirm
- Start the Google Play Store
- Update the “Google” application

This is from almost 2 years back, so I wonder if the physical and virtual Google Maps spoofing still works.

Isolated app can be frozen on demand, with launcher icon vanish and its background behaviors completely blocked.

The discussion on Yahoo closing Answers tonight quickly went from alternative text based question/answer sites to long YouTube videos having hardly any content but ads, to blocking these ads: [Wayback] Yahoo sluit Answers-dienst na vijftien jaar en verwijdert inhoud – IT Pro – Nieuws – Tweakers
So here are some links where I can learn a bit of browser plugin and Android development technology as well:
(What I dislike most about ads is that they start at unnatural positions in the stream and cover topics I’m totally not interested in).
