For some reason my xda forum app keeps getting uninstalled. I have it in a folder on my home screen, and it's still there but when I click it it opens the play store with the option to install.
Possibly related, my yahoo account keeps getting dropped. I don't get any email and when I open yahoo it makes me login again. And there's tons of email.
Another odd bug I've noticed is the first word swipe typing is usually way off and always a much smaller word the word I wad going for? God I hate not having root
Any info is appreciated
No one else has had any of these problems or knows how to fix them? Bump
Some how it got installed to sd instead of device. I moved it to the device. Hopefully that fixes it

Not sure how it happened, but for most of my contacts I have about 3 identical google profiles for...I noticed this when I go to send a text...I get about 3 cell #s, 3 home #s, etc for each person...wondering if there is something I'm missing to clear out? Thanks in advance, just mildly annoying

Might be a stupid question but..... have you checked your google account? Are they on there multiple times too?
Do you have more than one gmail account linked with your android phone? If so, do you also have these contacts on separate accounts?
Go to your contacts app and hit the menu button and check your display options too. See if something weird's going on there.
Or you can delete the data for your contacts through the Application manager and let it resync in case data was corrupted some how.

I actually get the same thing but I'm heavily modded and just live with it. For me I'm on 1.1 of Srf and running the honeycomb theme of amosher. Also sync across two main mail accounts with my mandatory Gmail account not being one of them.

Clear the google services framework data.
First, I must apologize for posting in the wrong forum...meant to put in Q&A...sorry. And thanks for the suggestions...I cleared the data in the contacts storage, clear google services framework...reset the sync...unfortunately nothing worked...just weird...shows like 3 linked google accts under every contact...I can delete them manually, but upon reboot, they come right back...oh well, guess I'll just deal with it too...thanks again!

Go to the sync settings and uncheck the Contacts option on all but one of them and then reset it again.
Login to Gmail on a PC and try merging duplicates under contacts/more actions.
Nicenice...yours was the winner...thank you! & thanks to all who responded, I appreciate it

Happened to me once.. I've always had my contacts on gmail, but I once used a different back up app that restored my contacts, suddenly, I had two gmail entries for every person.. both on my phone and in gmail.. solution was to go on gmail on a comp and delete dup contacts

is it just me or does the push notifications really suck on Android? I play all those "with friends" games and I never get the notifications... i have to manually go inside the app itself for it to update...
sorry this is my first Android phone and I do love it but this is the only problem I have with it; iphone does a better job.
please also excuse my ignorance if there is a different or certain policy to android because like I said before, this is my first phone therefore I am obviously new.
lastly, if I get flamed for creating a similar post, I do apologize for that too. I'm on tapatalk and tried using the search feature but nothing came up when I put "push notifications" as keywords.
thanks. had to rant since it annoyed the hell out of me

As soon as I rooted my phone and flashed a different ROM I pretty much stopped getting notifications from any app

Like i said blame the developers all the google apps work fine and clients as well. Facebook push has hardly ever worked and the apps now is slow hangs and hardly ever works. Gmail push always comes through immediately. Have you check to make sure Gmail is synced in your google account. Try a different facebook client? Besides their own app which is horrible on ios and android btw.

until fb figures a way to monetize on mobile apps they will ALWAYS suck.
and it isn't just you. FB messenger will work sometimes when it wants to. FB itself is usually pretty accurate for me, same with Plume.
i just wished BLN pro would always work right :\

Bln pro works fine for me I use blinking. But plume will give give me notifications when it wants me to sometimes 10 minutes after.. The standard twitter app sends me mentions and everything immediately but it puts me off since its lack of features. Best twitter app is tweetbot for the iphone.
Oh I thought you guys had push notification ads

Words with Friends [and every "with friends"] game uses poll not push. You can have it poll more frequently under settings. Obviously it'll drain more battery though.
Email?
Strangely I didn't have any issues with push when I was using the CM7 alpha. I just recently move to Juggernaut 5.0 and while I love the ROM I don't get emails pushed to me immediately anymore. Anyone have a similar experience?
I need your help! Can someone please try to add a new appointment using s-voice.
My device is not allowing me to schedule new appointments using s-voice? I can edit or delete appointments, create tasks, set alarms, open applications, answer or decline incoming calls or even call & text contacts. I really like s-voice and use it regularly. However, the only command it won't perform is to add new appointments to the calendar. What I've done so far:
Changed and adjusted calendar settings and compared mine to other users/friends were the application does work.
Contacted Samsung who had me perform a soft reset by removing the battery and restarting the phone
Contacted Samsung who had me perform a hard reset and swipe the phone clean and start from scratch
Contacted Sprint who had me do another soft and hard reset.
Contacted Sprint who sent me a brand new replacement device
Contacted Sprint who had me again do a soft and hard reset.
Contacted Sprint who asked me to take the device into a corporate store tomorrow hoping someone there can diagnose the problem
None of these options have worked, and I still cannot add new appointments using s-voice.
Here is screen shot with the message I get when trying to add an appointment. Please help!

Thank you for responding. Do you use Google Now to add appointments? Can you screen shot this for me to see how you're doing so. I use Google Now for voice search of Internet information, but adding, editing, or deleting calendar items I was not aware Google Now had this capability?
Sent from my GT-N8013 using xda app-developers app
Well, after spending up to 45 minutes at the Sprint store today I went away with a device that is still incapable of adding appointments to the calendar using s voice
However, once again Sprint didn't disappoint and agreed to send me now my third device. I should get it in two or three days and hopefully this one is the charm. Thank you to everyone who has responded, and done your best to assist me.
The issue has everyone at Sprint and Samsung puzzled, but other than the minor inconvenience of taking the old device to the post office to ship back, I'll keep pushing until I get a device that works.

With a special thanks to a new friend over at Android Central the problem has been found and corrected.
I had to create a new primary gmail account, and just like that I can now save appointments to the calendar. It appears the gmail account I always used as my primary account must have been corrupted in some way (I'm not sure how). Therefore, no matter how many phones Sprint sent me the result would be the same, because I always would use that Gmail address to set up the phone.
I am now using the new gmail account I created as my primary account, and the other one as the secondary.
Since all my applications, YouTube, and everything else is associated with the old account I now need to go through the really laborious task of redownloading my apps under the new account.
I feel bad about having Sprint send me another phone so I will contact them and cancel the replacement. Now I understand why the issue was unique to me, and followed me no matter which phone I used. Thank you all for your help! A special thanks to my new friend

What I've experienced and read is that S-Voice will save the appointment only to your local "my calendar." Google Now will save to your default Google calendar

Hey guys I've been following a few forums on this. It just doesnt make sense.
Anyways, I don't have a solution but I've discovered something that might help solve this from another angle.
S-planner seems to use the last calendar you created an event for. S-voice follows suit... so I'm able to get it to work with my primary personal gmail calendar and my primary google business apps calendar by temp creating an event in s-planner for one of them.
My problem is that I created an secondary calendar with my personal gmail account and share it with my wife as the family calendar. If I do the same in s-planner then try a new event with s-voice it fails.
I hope that gives you a new angle and maybe you can help me bc id really like the family calendar as the default..
Cheers!

Everything else on the phone works fine, but the Facebook app crashes multiple times a day.
I have to go to the home screen and then recent apps and swipe it away to get it working again. Sometimes even that doesn't work, and I have to go to the task manager and end the task before it'll work. Any ideas why?

its application's fault, not your note 2.... official facebook app has been known to crash very frequently
One of the more stable versions is 2.0, I use that but to be honest I in some ways prefer the website alternative. Bookmark the Facebook site in your browser, add a shortcut to this on your home screen and it's a somewhat better way to use Facebook. I was getting annoyed with it being so slow and running in the background so much. Each to their own though!

I just got a couple of notifications that this app (com.amazon.nyota) was trying to send a load of messages and I had the choice of allowing it or denying it, so I denied it.
This happened while I were looking at the battery usage in settings. Unfortunately I didn't think to screenshot the occurrence, but I've attached the process for the app in question.
The name suggests to me that it's something to do with OTA services, but I'm uncertain and a search on the internet didn't produce anything...
Has anyone else had this issue?
