Extreme Newbie

Hi all! Well, I recently made the leap to touchscreen/android from BlackBerry. I have an HTC Desire 510.

I an intrigued especially by hidden Vaults that can keep contacts, texts and photos hidden, but some of the ones I've tried still leave an icon on my phone and in Google Play. What vaults do you use? Or do the vaults come with some kind of lock screen or "mode" that prevents a guest from knowing it's there?

Also, a friend of mine has two Gmail addresses that are exactly identical but have different passwords! He said I have to figure that one out on my own if I want to do the same thing, but I can't seem to quite wrap my mind around it, haha! He also has a frequent number in his call log but it doesn't look like a real number! It's 2 digits too long (assuming the area code is included) and when I call that number from my phone I get a message saying check the number and dial again! I'm dying of curiosity lol!!!

Like I said, I'm brand new to android and anxious to learn all the tips and tricks I can, and I'm really interested in downloading something to keep photos and texts private :) Oh, and one last thing: Can the Vault/locker thing hide apps as well?

Thanks in advance! :)
 
Hello and welcome!
Not really sure I have any input at the moment, but I moved your thread into the Android News and Talk forum as your questions seem to relate to Android in general and could apply to any device;)
Hopefully more eyes will see it here:)
