Thankfully, Google has now rectified the situation by introducing the Android Device Manager (ADM from here on). So what exactly does Google ADM do? While it’s not as comprehensive of a method as some of the third party tools out there, it can locate your device with an accuracy of around 20 meters, ring the device to find it and even remote wipe your device to prevent an intruder from getting their hands on your pictures, apps and other personal information....

Yeah, you tried switching to the grid view. But that doesn’t change those huge thumbnails in the Quick Access area one tiny bit. How unthoughtful of Google! And, let’s not even think about the various privacy issues involved. Remember the last time that you scrolled down quickly just in case someone noticed what you’ve been up to? It’s uncomfortable no matter how you look at it. Fortunately, Google has been considerate enough to provide us with an option to hide the Quick Access area from view....
However, all previous progress in this regard has been restricted to the PSP emulator that all Vitas come packed with. This means that all possible homebrew until now was limited by the PSP emulator’s power.

When they come across a page that won’t load in Safari for some reason or because of Flash content, they just open the page in Chrome....

As hale and hearty as this process may sound, it’s not without its share of issues. In the haste to use these apps and games, we usually choose to ignore the app permissions. More often than not, once the Google access permission has been given, most of us tend to forget about it. If it’s a trusted app, it might be okay. But in the long run, unmonitored app permissions can land you in a troublesome situation....
