Pressing messaging gives me another app?

Anyone else seeing this?
Today whenever I press the messaging icon I get the last app I had open instead.
Very strange.

just go back that's happened with my Mytouch 4G

I've seen this with Google Music. I've force stopped and cleared data but the problem randomly comes back and I dont know whats triggering it

For me, the best working solution is to press multitasking button and swipe away all the apps.

Thats what i did too
At first i tried to open my music, it opened my google voice instead :/ but thats the temporarily solution i suppose :/

This has not gone away. Even if I try to access messaging from the app drawer or recent app list it doesn't work. Hitting back cycles through other apps, does not help. The only way to access messaging is through the people app or through a notification.

Try rebooting it?

Like someone said, swipe away all the recent apps.

Bugs on Chrome

Anyone else having a bug on Chrome that when typing in a search bar and you press space it deletes the word?

Been using chrome since the day I got my galaxy. On stock rom and cm9. Haven't had any problems.

I usually use some windex and paper towels to get the bugs of chrome
on a serious note...
yeah that happens to me sometimes.

I have a problem occasionally when I got to delete a word in search it just adds the last few letters of the word before it over and over like this: applepplpplpplpplpplppl just as an example have to lock phone and cut back on to fix

Yeah. I have had that happen but not on my GS3. But the bug I mentioned originally, happens often.

Ya this happens for me with Swiftkey and Chrome. But I think it's only on the Google search because the auto corrects are somehow messing each other up. It does not seem to do it when you search with the address bar.

Any way to disable edge-zooming in the stock browser

It drives me insane when I'm using the device one-handed and trigger this "feature" when I scroll near the edge of the screen...

Same here especially when trying to bring up the quick controls.

Same here on international version

There seems to be no option. The browser itself is one of the best stock browsers I've ever used. But I want to punch sammy in the throat at times for not allowing that to be turned off.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

I agree I would also like it to be disabled. The other big annoyance in the stock browser is the double tap to zoom doesn't work (over zooms every time - naturally you have to be in desktop view to see this). There is a setting to alter it but it doesn't help. Firefox works correctly but I end up using the stock browser most of the time and just pinching.

I no longer have this problem. I was stock AT&T, then rooted, then running International ROM with a stock browser that doesn't have the edge zooming. Yes, it did annoy me when I had it.

Wow! You're right! I also changed to a different rom a while back but kind of forgot about the problem. I thought I was being more careful I guess. No! I forgot only because the problem was gone and didn't notice! Yet another reason to get off stock! Great info, big :Thumbup:

No movement on this topic I guess. This feature drives me nuts as well but I don't want to go to a different rom to resolve it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

Well you can also use a different browser - plenty of choices out there...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

This actually occurs on the stock browser as well as other third party browsers...

Yep happy to say that the latest 4.1.2 update removed this annoying behavior.

Indeed. I guess they realized it was more of a pain.

Do we get the copy on original release date or do we get early tracks?

Does anyone know a way that we can extract the downloaded content? Reason I'm asking is because I want to hear it from Poweramp as I have preset EQs in there.

How did you even get it to work? Mine just stays stuck at the opening screen and nothing happens. It used to have a bunch of demos and stuff. Now, nothing.

Would love to know how to extract the tunes as well
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app

This app is another representation on how the man will control you. This app does nothing but harvest your data, sell it to the appropriate entities and not allow you to play how you want. The music industry is trying to pull a quick one on you. Extract the APK if you dont believe me. I personally will stick to other ways to get my music free

We did just get a whole album for free.......right?

I see you saying this, but what data does it harvest. What are you seeing in the decompile app that proves this? I don't even have the app in just curious why your making these claims and very broad claims too.

It doesnt even take that level of investigation. It's just common sense
THIS APPLICATION HAS ACCESS TO THE FOLLOWING:
YOUR LOCATION
APPROXIMATE LOCATION (NETWORK-BASED)
Allows the app to get your approximate location. This location is derived by location services using network location sources such as cell towers and Wi-Fi. These location services must be turned on and available to your device for the app to use them. Apps may use this to determine approximately where you are.
PRECISE LOCATION (GPS AND NETWORK-BASED)
Allows the app to get your precise location using the Global Positioning System (GPS) or network location sources such as cell towers and Wi-Fi. These location services must be turned on and available to your device for the app to use them. Apps may use this to determine where you are, and may consume additional battery power.
NETWORK COMMUNICATION
FULL NETWORK ACCESS
Allows the app to create network sockets and use custom network protocols. The browser and other applications provide means to send data to the internet, so this permission is not required to send data to the internet.
PHONE CALLS
READ PHONE STATUS AND IDENTITY
Allows the app to access the phone features of the device. This permission allows the app to determine the phone number and device IDs, whether a call is active, and the remote number connected by a call.
STORAGE
MODIFY OR DELETE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR USB STORAGE
Allows the app to write to the USB storage.
YOUR APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
RETRIEVE RUNNING APPS
Allows the app to retrieve information about currently and recently running tasks. This may allow the app to discover information about which applications are used on the device.

Why would an application intended to come to "Samsung Galaxy* fans first " need this much info?

designed for tablets google play

Anyone know a way to find designed for tablet apps in the play store. I seem to remember a drop down box that you could separate tablet apps from all. But can't seem to find anything now

I have posted in a couple threads about this and there are at least a few people on here wondering how to get the tablet apps on the Nexus 7. There is no way to do what you are saying though - the problem is that Google Play doesn't see the Nexus 7 as a tablet but just a phone. <--- that's IMO.

i think this is the app you want https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tablifiedapps.tablifiedmarket

If you open the app store and click on apps, then swipe to the left where it says top paid, top free ...etc etc. Then you will see the drop down menu that says all apps and then designed for tablets

That's what I've seen before but now my nexus won't display it just looks like it does on my phone. Tried restarting the tablet and clearing the data but still won't show that drop down box

What play store version are you running? Mines 4.3.11
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

That's the version I have as well. It's not cos I have a nexus 4 on the same login is it ?

I wouldn't think so, the app should detect if it's a tablet or phone. That's weird yours doesn't.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

It is odd , i thought id seen it before hence starting the thread. But like you cant understand why its stopped appearing on the store now. Might see if i can raise a bug report with google about it

Is that a modded version of the Play Store?

Dude, is there something like that as well??? I haven't sensed that anything since being on Android. I think that it provides a list of compatible apps only on the top. Well if you just get to know the trick then just share your experience here as well.
