Hey guys, So I have this problem with the Request for permissions on my Wildfire. For apps that can use facebook login (eg, Talkbox, Vlingo), The little popup come up and ask to login, after the login the little "Request For Permission" thing come up, after pressing "Allow", the little window closes but I'm still not logged in, is there a fix for this?
I'm using CM7 7.1.0.1 and I don't use the Facebook app, I use friendcaster

I'm running InsertCoin A2SD+ 1.0.8 stable.
People just won't load from the "People" app, just "loading.." forever. when searching contacts with "Search People" app, the phone shows the list but when I'm clicking on a contact I get force close (The application People process com.android.htccontacts) has stopped...)
what's with that? it's a phone and all.... any fixes? like, reinstalling the people app? and if it's the fix, from where can I get the htccontacts.app (or the htccontacts.odex?)
Hi all!!
Got a problem with Google Talk and would like to disable one account from using Google Talk.
Home Gmail account works fine and want to use it, but my work gmail account has it disabled server side and my Galaxy Nexus keeps popping up "error - cannot logon".
Its really annoying!!!! There is a sign off option, i do it and it still tries to auto logon. There is nothing under accounts/sync.
Any ideas?
I'm close to removing talk and using whatsapp/ping or something.
This has been a problem eversince talk was released, it picks te first account which has been setup on the phone as default! try search the forum there was a workaround.
Otherwise, remove you accounts, en setup the one you want to use first then the second, this should work.
Talk hasn't been updated since quite a long time, maybe they will update it sometime to make it able to switch accounts.
Think this was put in as a request to google already.
Also think google messenger from G+ app will replace google talk in the future as a chat application .
Thanks for that!! Will prob switch to G+ chat instead then.

I just went to the buddy list of the account that i dont want to use, hit the menu key, then sign out. It hasnt auto logged since. even after a reboot.
I am not exactly sure when this started happening but lately I cannot get any app to authorize my account on facebook. For example, I installed sycn.me and when I try to use it, it asks me to login and after logging in, I get a prompt with all the permission details and there is OK and Cancel button but I cannot click on either one. I tried disabling the Facebook app but even the web popup has same issue. I have tried several different apps that rely on facebook permissions and all have same issue with the popup. The apps that have already been authorized, work without an issue. So I don't think that it's an issue with authorization but the authorization detail popup.
Does anybody has any solution for this?
I'm still on Color OS 1.2 and it's driving me crazy, i'm just waiting for a stable ROM to jump ship as fast as i can. It's the buggiest stock ROM i've ever used, the stock gallery app crashes, almost everytime. VSCO in-camera camera crashes. I had one random reboot, but this is not the worst.
The settings. I love SwiftKey so i naturally installed it, and everything goes okay until i try to use it. It works, it works perfectly, but everytime an app requests keyboard usage, the SwiftKey keyboard launches but a notification always appears, it reads "Choose Input Method" so i tap it, and choose SwiftKey and the pop-up goes away but the notification is still there. I tap it again and the same window pops, and again and again.
I go to the Input Settings to try and choose SwiftKey once and for all, but ColorOS doesn't let me uncheck Oppo Swype, i tap it but the checkmark doesn't go away. So basically i have both SwiftKey and Oppo's Swype active. That's okay, i can live with the constant notification and Oppo's Swype active as long as the keyboard launching is SwiftKey.
But, if i reboot the phone, and try to use an app, a wild Oppo Swype appears. I go to the settings and SwiftKey is unchecked. So basically everytime i reboot the phone i have to check SwiftKey in order to use it. I'd love to delete Oppo's Stock keyboard, but i don't know how.
Another thing that is annoying me a little too much is Facebook. Everytime i reboot my phone, i have to add my Facebook account in the Accounts Settings. What's strange is that, even without my FB account activated in the settings, if i open the FB Messenger or the FB app they both login automatically but if i open another app that communicates with a FB account (Chronus for example), i have to add my FB login manually because the app says that i do not have any FB account linked to my phone, and what's strange is that i thought this could maybe be due to my FB app being stored in phone storage, so i moved it to system storage and as soon as i tapped the "Move to system" button, my Find 7a rebooted.
And i won't install 2.0 Beta since it must be even worse atm. I'm craving for a stable ROM.
edit: I can't even change the order of my home screens.
Don't be scared by the "beta", in my opinion 2.0 is a lot more stable than 1.2. And a lot of the bloatware is gone.

I'm using Yahoo Mail for my Yahoo account but each time I try to allow Yahoo Mail to access my contacts, I get the following error message:
Screen overlay detected.
To change this permission setting, you first have to turn off the screen overlay from Settings > Apps. I did just that in the Settings > Apps screen but it keeps re-enabling itself! Is this a bug or what? I can't change any of my permission settings for any of my other apps either.

It isn't a bug, but it is a confusing message, which some might consider sub-optimal.
You need to go into
settings->apps->gear icon->draw over other apps
and look for every app that says "Yes"
For any app that isn't from Google, write the app name on a piece of paper, tap on the app name, and then disable "Permit drawing over other apps"
Then go back and run your mail app and you'll be able to accept the permissions it is requesting.
Then go back to
settings->apps->gear icon->draw over other apps
take the list of apps you earlier disabled this permission for, and enable it again, if you feel it is appropriate.
The reason it is happening is because you have an app running that is currently overlaying stuff on your screen. Google can't tell if that is a legitimate app or it is a malicious app trying to gets you to click on other things or stealing your keystrokes.
Before, they just never warned about it. Starting with June update, there was a bug where you couldn't press accept for permissions, only deny.
In July security update, they changed that to give you a warning that there is a screen overlay running and they can't continue.
IMO it is still confusing to the end-user.
I think I found the culprit. It was Omni Swipe causing it to pop up.
This thing is so freaking annoying. I've switched to "no" every single app (including system ones), whatsapp web qrcode scanning feature asking for additionnal camera feature gets stuck with this damn overlay thing.
