I used to be able to select to "insert an image" into the body of an email (on my note 2) but it appears the stock note 4 email app no longer has this option?
How can this be?
Am I missing something?
Use the paper clip in the top right corner and inset picture/doc etc from that.

I use both the native gmail app and the native email app (for my exchange account), but one thing REALLY annoys me:
I can't view emails in full screen mode while in landscape position, the way most people use their tablets. In Gmail while in landscape view, it's a split screen with a list of all your emails on the left, and the message being viewed on the right. But on our A100's you can't seem to turn off the split view, or even resize the divider. And yes, I know if I turn the tablet into portrait mode, the list disappears and the email itself is full screen...it's just that I like working in landscape mode on this tablet.
I've researched this and MOST other tablets have a setting letting you turn off the left side email list, but that setting isn't present in our device for some reason.
Anyone know a solution/work around?
Secondly, in the native email application (for exchange accounts and all other non-google accounts), I can hide the list all messages view and see the email in full screen, but half the window is taken up by the huge bar indicating who the message is from, the subject/date, and being able to forward/reply/favourite the message. This area is HUGE on our small 7" screens.
On my phones running gingerbread 2.3.x, this area disappears as you scroll down. If you want it, just scroll back up to the top of the message. That's a perfect solution Google came up with...so why isn't it like that on our A100's?
Anyone know a work around or outright solution?
Thanks
I completely agree that I wish I could view emails in full screen. Maybe we will see that in ICS. In a perfect world, one tap would show it in framed mode and a second tap would open it full screen.
It's dumb because my SE Xperia Pro running Gingerbread 2.3.4 shows me emails in full screen. When I scroll down the page, everything at the top like sender, date, subject, next/previous message, etc stays at the top of the email, but not the screen. So emails are actually full screen.
I switched from a motorola milestone running gingerbread 2.3.7 via cyanogen(mod)7, and it did the same thing.
I should note this only works with the built in email app, but not the gmail app. The gmail app's not bad though. It still shows the info at the top when I scroll down, but it's in a very very condensed form. If it were like that on our A100's, it'd be livable.
This inconsistency doesn't make much sense to me. I understand google's thinking, in that since tablets have bigger screens we can afford to see that info at the same time as read the message content. But that's with bigger 10" screens. Once you go down to 7" it no longer makes sense.
Yeah, the reason from the change was due to Gingerbread being designed for phones and Honeycomb being designed for tablets. They should have done some more testing on 7" devices in terms of email formats. If it is just text, it really isn't that bad, but when you get some newsletter type emails that are HTML, it is very annoying.
So, I have the GS3. Rooted, and am running the Leak (latest with LIH updates -radio, firmware, etc)
I've notice that with the JB update, there is now a change in the contacts app, related to images. It used to show an option to set a picture that's used on one of the joined accounts as the default image when referencing that contact.
Like if I wanted to see a Facebook pic on one person, but a manually set image on another, I'd go to the contact, edit the contact, tap the pic, and choose an option to use as default (or however it was phrased). But that option is now gone altogether, and I have images from my people's own networks being shown when I wanna see something other than their dog.
Any idea on how to get this functionality back? I'm really hoping the official update brings this back.
Thanks guys.
[Solved]
Figured it out.
While viewing the contact (not while editing it) hit menu, then there's an option that says "Set as Default."
This will take ya to a screen listing all the mixtures for caller ID, phone number, email, etc... and give you radio buttons to choose which ones you want as the default for each.
The one for the caller I'd sets the default pic for the contact.
Hey all. I hate to ask, as this seems.. pretty absurd, but..
How do a add a contact to my phone book, WITHOUT having to specify "which google account to link it to"? Years ago (3?) on my Fascinate (Galaxy 1), I remember seeing a "Phone Only" option on that pop-up selector, but I don't now. (And haven't seen it for a long time..)
I'm on a CM variant ROM, if that matters, too.

When you add a contact on the top look closely and you will see a menu in that menu it gives the option to save to device or sim card or Google account. Yours menu likely says Google right now so press in the lower right side of that menu where you see things are being saved to google and it will give you other options like device or sim card. You will see a small shaded corner that's where you press to get the menu and options. I hope this helps. Its located directly on top when you press to add a contact. No question is a stupid question and hope this clears it up for you. So you have three choices to save to device sim or google.once you choose the option the contacts will be speed to that option. Best wishes.
I asked this question a while back and still haven't figured it out. When opening up the messenger app, there is the paper clip to attach files to send out file attachments. There used to be an option to attach audio and when you would choose it, it would bring up all of your mp3's clips you have in storage so you could choose and attach whichever you want to send. That option has been missing for a while now and I was wondering how to get it back. Does anyone know a way? Do you have to move something in root browser to get it to appear again?
tl;dr bought phone with box and everything, had pattern in it, put into recovery wiped it, now it's a brick.
So I bought a HTC One M9 from someone off of craigslist for $350. It was dead when I bought it, but I got pics of it with it on and functioning. It came with the box, charger and everything. So it had a pattern lock on it so I just put it into recovery mode and wiped it. Now it needs the original account to activate it. I've got a hold of the original person and they gave me the password and email but they reset the password so I think I have to wait 72 hours which is Tuesday night hopefully. But what if it doesn't work? Can I bypass it?

So i have managed to get into the settings of the phone, so I've managed some progress at least!!
From the start up press next
Go to add another network, click advance options, proxy manual
add a couple letters under proxy hostname, push and hold what you added and select share
Select Messages, select yes, then allow
Push the three dots on the top right corner and select "Tips & Help" Press allow
Push the three lines by "how tos" select "diagnostics tools" push "phone storage"
Select Apps, scroll down to "Setup Wizard" select it, then push the i that's in a circle " force stop" it, select "ok"
At this point you should have all three navigation buttons on the screen at the bottom, pull the notification bar down and hit the gear. You're now in the settings of the phone!
You can enable developer options but it won't let you access them, but you're able to access all of the settings in the phone, but I'm not able to get to the home screen. But it's progress, maybe we can figure out a bypass with this information....

Yes, but it doesn't show any intonation in it. I was able to wipe the phone but it didn't clear the protection. The password the person gave to me after 72 hours finally worked, so I have a somewhat functioning M9. The signal is messed up it keeps dropping service. Verizon is sending me a new device, should be here later today.
