The bad parts
Google Play Store
2019-02-25 -- When I did the factory reload I did not put Google Play Store into the phones, they are just phones to me right now.
A potential fix for this STUPID ANNOYING update bug is here http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/48694/how-can-i-stop-google-play-from-automatically-updating
Currently the version of "Play Store" is 5.3.36 (I think that's right) and it crashes every time I try to install an app!
I downloaded the APK for an older version (5.2.13) and put it on my Web server. Then I browsed to it and downloaded it to the phone. Then I installed it by clicking on it in the Downloads app.
It works! I quickly go into its settings menu and turn off automatic updates.
I install an app! It works!
I go back 2 minutes later, find another app, and... it has been updated!! Gag me! Right now the only work around I have for this is to keep the APK in Downloads and reinstall it.
