Problem With Keyboard Default

Can someone please tell me how I can get the Samsung keyboard to stop commandeering my phone? I set the default to Swiftkey and use it for whatever I'm currently doing, then the next time I need to type, the Samsung keyboard is back as the default.
I'd just delete the Samsung keyboard if I knew how, but I can't see a way to do it.
Thanks!

Have you tried removing it using titanium back up?

I thought of that, but unfortunately, since upgrading my OS my normal rooting method no longer works, and I'm still waiting for a program upgrade.

And you can't disable it in the apps section under settings?

Not that I can see. There might be a way, but I'm missing it.

Settings, application manager, all, pick the Samsung keyboard, and disable. :good:

Thanks a lot. I just finally got a chance to try this, and it doesn't work (unless I'm missing something again). In Language and Input settings, Samsung keyboard is checked and grayed out so that I can't uncheck it. In application manager, when I select it, the Disable button is grayed out.
It looks like Samsung is set on forcing me to use their keyboard.

I had the issue with the default keyboard resetting on reboot on TW roms. Paid apps don't become available until after the keyboard is set. I'm on pacman now and it stays as default regularly.
It never reset after each use though.

U probably have to have another keyboard selected as default before you're able to do this. Is your phone rooted?

How in the heck can we stop this monster short of rooting and debloating? Everytime I try anything with contacts there it is and I have to hit the back button to escape. There doesn't seem to be a way anywhere to kill this atrocity of an app.
Okay, call me stupid, it gives more options NOT to use it once your SIM is active. So used to HTC Dev Editions, or GPE. Mods can delete.

You should be able to disable it through Apps in Settings. What I usually do is just have it set up then in contacts under settings manually uncheck it so it doesn't sync anything.

They don't let you disable it on the G2, I doubt they'd do so on the G3. One of the reasons I ordered a T-Mobile version.
You'd probably have to do a root-debloat to get rid of it.

I rooted and it's gone after some debloating.

Download titanium backup and freeze all of the AT&T apps this way they can be unfrozen when you need to do an OTA.

Simple....root it and use a root uninstall app. No reason not to root

On my LG G3 I had the same problem and later on a friend asked me to do this and it worked perfectly.
Go to the dialer and type *#*#2666#*#*
Select "Registration" and choose "Completed"
And you should be ok.

HELP! Need QMemo + apk

I have a new AT&T LG G 3 and was deleting apps and ill admit i went over board and deleted it. I would like to see if anyone can send me the apk. Also anyone know how to get the health app to work on a different launcher, because i cant find the app for it. It only shows up under the stock launcher. THANKS!

If you have Apex launcher you can add a shortcut to your home screen, choose activities and find the LG Health(or whatever it's called) activity. Now when you click that, it'll open LG Health without having to go to LG's home.
Stopped by here looking for the QMemo+ apk... I happened to lose mine too.

I made a titanium backup
here are the files:

PS: I use F400k so I dont know if it will work.

Anyone still have the APK?
I'm sorry to bring up an old thread but I just pruchased the LG-D850 for AT&T on Ebay and when I received it, it didn't have QMemo+ along with a few basic missing options (can't add grid lines to camera, no option to add Multi-Task Pane to buttons on bottom, etc). Does anybody still have the apk for QMemo+ for the G3?? I'm hoping it will help some.
Also, I have seen "LG Update Center" as a solution from some pages, what is this?

I need it as well. Mine is suddenly missing, so I assume I accidentally deleted it. I really need it for notes and the integration into the phone would be the best way to use it!

I was having this issue too and the culprit was the Hotmail app... It's a bug in the Android system if any app has a language call Mata data (or something like that) it will forget your default settings of your home launcher.
I remove the Hotmail app and haven't had a problem ever since. If it wasn't for Nova launcher telling me which app was causing it, I would have probably returned my perfectly good running device.
If you don't have the Hotmail app installed, I recommend you use nova launcher and let it alert you which app is causing the issue. Uninstall that app reboot your phone and you should be good to go and then remove nova launcher if you so choose to.

Did you try using Nova launcher for a while to see if it tells you which app is causing an issue? i did as the guy above mentioned and it worked out for me it was a weird app i had that was causing it. I deleted it and it never happened again.

[Q] Recent apps not working!?

Hi everyone. For some reason my recent apps hasn't been working lately. When I open it, it shows no recent apps.. but there should be. If I try a few more times it usually will kick in and show my running apps. It's kinda hit or miss but most of the time miss it used to work just fine. I am rooted but I believe the issue started before I rooted. I don't think I've disabled anything that could affect it either. Anyone else run into this problem? Or any ideas for a solution?
Thanks!

I'm having the same problem. I'm on a D855 16 GB now on v10h eur. I'm rooted right now, but I noticed this issue since I bought it. Does anyone knows how to fix it? It's not the biggest deal but still annoying...

Small update: i just removed some bloatware using the guide on this forum and the problem seems to be solved, no matter how hard i try to make it show again. I will test it a bit more and then, hopefully, confirm this impression.

Awesome that's good news! Can ya point me in the direction of that guide please?

I have the same issue sometimes. Probably a stock launcher bug.

Same phone and exact same problem.

With nova as well

This is the guide. I confirm that the problem "was" gone. Now i'm using apex launcher and it cames back occasionally only with certain apps. With the stock launcher i was not able to reproduce it, no matter how hard i try

suddenly I had this problem
anyone know how to fix it?

Not really fix.

ART is still beta until android L, so it's a valid troubleshooting step.

Valid? but this phone with no ART just won't work... This is the bypass fix- not really worth.
