[Q] Note 2 LTE keyboards acts weird and also Pushbullet - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
A very weird thing happens with a Galaxy Note 2 LTE that I have (GT-N7105 model).
It turns out that when the keyboard is displayed, despite having configured the Spanish (Spain) language and English (UK), I can't exchange them by sliding the spacebar and the keyboard settings icon doesn't show up in the status bar.
Also most puzzling of all is that when I'm writing a word and select one of the suggestions, automatically TWO spaces are added after the word when the normal thing would be none is added at first but ONE is added when you start typing the next word.
In addition, the Pushbullet app does not synchronize well between the PC and the Note (It worked perfectly with a Galaxy Note 3 that was stolen). When there is a notification on the phone, it also appears on the computer screen but if I click "dismiss", it does not disappear in the phone. Also, if I open in the phone the notification or eliminate it, the window does not disappear from the PC screen. It also does not work the "ignore notifications from app X" in the PC and finally the universal clipboard works when I copy something on the computer to paste in the phone but not vice versa.
Evidently there is something wrong with this phone but I do not know what it is and having detected these two failures, the keyboard and the Pushbullet, means there may be more failures I have not yet noticed.
I have another identical LTE model that works perfectly although this one is not unlocked to my operator. I've been to SamMobile and I downloaded the exact same firmware that this one has (latest version 4.4.2 of EE company in UK) and I've flashed it in the phone that is wrong but nothing, still the same failures. I've reset it, I've configured again and without installing any app, Keyboard failure still appears. I tried to flash other Firmwares but still failing, so I do not think it is something about the firmware or my personal settings because the keyboard fails even before configuring or installing anything.
What can it be? How do I fix it?

Internal Error :0

Greetings.
I have Sprint TP2. It's a stock install except I disabled touchflo3d and i'm using plain WinMo home screen.
Ever since yesterday I noticed that when I check my phone after its been in sleep mode for a few minutes there is a small popup window waiting for me on the home screen.
Title of that popup window is "Internal Error"
Body is a red X icon and text ":0"
If i press ok button that window goes away but then after a few minutes its back.
Rebooting the phone doesn't solve this.
How would i troubleshoot/solve this?
Have you installed any software that didn't come on the phone? If so, try uninstalling one by one to see if you find your troublesome app. If you have all stock software the best bet would be to hard reset. But be sure to backup all data (contact, text messages, etc) if you hard reset.
I have the same issue. mxxcon, did you ever determine root cause?
I'm getting the same thing on both of my Touch Pro 2's, one is with Verizon and the other is with U.S. Cellular, and it seems to have started for me tonight. It's not hurting anything that I can tell, just annoying. However, I'm not seeing it on my HTC Pure (AT&T), so it seems to be specific to the Touch Pro 2.
Edit-It looks like it might be related to the newest version of Google Maps, I wonder if leaving it running in the background is causing this?

I have the same issue on my ATT Fuze. It is definitely the goggle map application, I wonder if its cause i have it running on the SD card.
Anyone else having the problem?
i think its has to do with lattitude with google maps when you exit say no to keep shareing your location i just tried it let ya know what happens
well so far 20 mins later no error message
Tilt google maps :0 sd card

Thanks for the idea.
ATT Tilt, WM6.1
I nominate for The 2010 Most Useless Error Message Award ":0" --> read: "I have no plonking clue." LOL!!!
Hard reset, install google maps 3.1 to SD, returns :0 on the first try.
(It -may- have even trashed my email and messaging - desktop icons stopped working - but not willing to re-re-re-re-reinstall to test that further.)
Just for fun, uninstall GM, install from CAB to SD and returns :0 simply on the **install**!!!!!!
Hard reset, changed install to main memory rather than SD, and it installed and ran perfectly on the first try. Several soft resets later it still runs like a bunny.
Actually GM is working better than previously. I used to get constant failures from GM to connect to the GPS in the phone ('not found' and such). I used to have to -first- turn on VisualGPSce, and -then- GM would find it immediately. GM is now aaallll grown up and can now do that aaallll by itself.
Have a day!

Weird Market Problems on Desire

Just got my HTC Desire today and everything is working fine apart from the android market. I have 3 problems:
1) I don't have the paid apps tab only top free and just in. I can see paid apps within the just in section, but not top paid apps.
2) When I clock on the install button I get a blank screen with just the background gui showing for at least 10-20 seconds before the confirmation screen that shows what permissions the app needs is finally shown.
3) Apps install correctly however they never get removed from the "currently downloading" list in the Downloads section of the android market.
I got the phone through virgin mobile and I am currently using a t-mobile sim in it. I have tried doing a factory reset which didn't solve the problem.
Anyone had any similar issues?
Liam
Please search before posting.
Your problems will be solved by removing t-mobile content lock. It can be done through their website or by calling customer service.
One problem will remain though: so far no one can see copy-protected apps because market is not recognizing our build number. It should be solved soon though.
Hi,
The phone actually came from Virgin Mobile, but for the moment I am using my old T-Mobile sim which used to be in my G1 which didn't have any problems with the market. I seem to remember de-activating the content lock when I used the browser for the first time on my g1.
I just checked on my t-mobile account details and I definitely have the content lock turned off.
I still have the same problem with the market, i.e. I get about 20 seconds of blank screen after clicking install before the permission confirmation details come up.
And after an app is installed it still shows in the download section as installing with the grey progress bar and doesn't disappear unless I go to the settings/Applications and clear the cache in download manager, market and force close the market app.
Anyone have any similar problems? I have done a full factory reset three times, still the same problems.
Liam
I just got mine, its a open one unbranded. I can neither connect to gtalk or download apps, both hang. I have read similar problems for the Droid, but the fixes dont work for me.
Also can you connect the device to the internet via the PC, like windows mobile ?
That's odd. My problems were solved by removing content lock.
Does the same thing happen on WiFi? Did you try to restart the device?
Regarding PC to phone tethering, it's not possible over USB. There are guides on how to do it over WiFi though.
Its the same for me : confirmed that content lock is off.
and still have this problem.
On Tmobile, upgraded from G1, same sim.
I get this on wifi or not.
If I restart the device, the Market Place states its installed correctly (like it should do). But installing another shows the same problem.
I've done a Factory Reset via the menu and that did solve it.
And I've just phoned tmo tech support, and they recommend resetting via fastboot.
I'll give that a go later, and post back the results.
Any other ideas?
Its really weird. Yesterday at a different wifi location it worked fine. But again its not working in work. I assume then the downloads are being blocked by the service provider, or the router.
Thats really crap you cannot connect to the internet via the USB cable like in windows mobile. I cant get my data service working either - so in work I have to work.
ok, I did a clear storage from the fastboot menu, I assumed that what he meant, had no effect.
but figured it out!!!!!!
its my gmail/Google account thats the problem! if I reset the phone and created a new account it works fine. log back in as me, bang. back as previously created new account, fine.
1. is this the same for other people?
2. the people who are having this problem, are you all previous Android users?
3. if so, what phone? me was G1.
I will have to raise a bug with android or google on this.
I now also have to ring back tmo and tell them this info, as I'm guessing by his language he want to take the phone back in.

Beware that while most apps like gmail, calendar, contacts, etc work using port 80 (HTTP), both google talk and android market use different ports.
In my school network I can't connect to gtalk or download from market because they block those ports on the firewall.
I previously had a g1 and think the problems I was having had something to do with my gmail account but it seemed to resolve itself after several factory resets.
I am not convinced that the factory reset was what fixed it, I just think it needed a bit of time to sort itself out.
I wonder if having a new device with the same gmail account causes the issue and it takes a while to recognise the new device. though that doesn't really explain the behaviour I was seeing.

I cannot find a way around this.
My google account shows the slowness and install problems, a test/temp/dummy/other account does not, I do not want to change my email address!
So I have emailed Google, see where that gets me.
Anyone know/think-of any other routes?

I am having problems with the Market on my new Desire. I previously had a G1.
1. When I select Downloads tab, it takes about 10 seconds before the loading text is displayed.
2. When selecting something to install, the 1st info page with the install button is displayed but with no info/text/etc, ie only the install button, again about a 10sec wait and the info shows fine.
3. When selecting install, the security confirm page is displayed but is blank, no text or buttons, another 10secs and its displayed.
4. If I actually go to install an app, it correctly redirects me back to the last market list page. From there if I go to Downloads, after the 10sec wait, it always states "installing", even when its finished, and pushed a notification up.
I can use the app, but the market always states installing. Even hours after. These all queue up and never clear.
Only rebooting the phone clears the installing app, and correctly marks them as installed.
5. Uninstalling app cannot be completed at all. I select uninstall, and it pops up the confirmation box, but then displays a blank page, and after the 10 or so seconds, displays the "Uninstalling application" with progress bar, but never completes. Again only a reboot corrects this.
All this occurs for any app.
I have done many Factory Resets from software, and Clear Storage from Fastboot.
Interestingly, my phone works corrected with a new account, I reset the phone and instead of signing in with my usual account, I created a new one, this worked very fast and correctly. Signing back in with my normal account again showed the same problems.

same problem here, gone from a G1 to HTC desire not tryed to sign up with a new account simply becasue i had the xxxx.xxxgmail mail now for over 18 months and rely on it.
All I know is that the day after I got my Desire, probably about 24 hours after first turning it on (and after 4 factory resets which may have nothing to do with it) I was installing an app, which had the same problems i.e. delayed permissions screen, remaining in the download screen even after being installed succesfully, then a few minutes later I went to install another app and it was fine, no delay, suddenly I had the Top Paid apps tab and apps did not remain in the download section as still downloading. It has been fine ever since.
It seems that all of us who have this problem have had G1s previously so it must be something to do with that.
I experienced this issue with my new desire but not one with older rom. Both from T-Mobile. The funny thing was first day it was running pretty slow, could not view paid apps either but now it is much faster as it should be and paid apps have appeared too. So it's working brilliantly.
i have market problems too... i cant see many market apps, including paid apps which i bought..
it's a free desire with vodafone spain sim.

That's a different issue, apparently Google have not yet added the HTC Desires "fingerprint" to some kind of database that enables access to apps with copy protection, this is why some apps you have previously purchased won't show up.
Apparently this happens with all new handsets, though why Google don't get this resolved before the phones release I don't know, as it doesn't give a great experience to the end user (HTC say they sent the fingerprint well before the phone was released but google haven't processed it yet).
Hopefully this should be resolved soon. Until then I have had to extract a few of my more regularly used protected apps from my G1 with root.
But it happens to me with free apps too.

Any application developer can choose to use copy protection, some free apps choose to do that.

Text input problem when connected to Wifi

Hi,
I'm having a weird issue with my One V. When I'm connected to the WLAN at my workplace (WPA2-Enterprise, TTSL/PAP or PEAP/MSCHAPV2), I can't input any text. The keyboard appears, I get word completion hints (if activated, though the problem occurs regardless) but no text ever makes it to the text input field. The problem occurs regardless of which app and which keyboard I try. It doesn't appear when I connect to "normal" WPA2 secured WLANs.
I've contacted HTC support, they told me to try a soft reset and a hard reset, both of which didn't work. For technical reasons, restarting the WLAN system, as they suggested, is not possible.
I'm running the default software with official upgrades installed (Android 4.0.3).
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? I'd really like to get this to work.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: The workplace WLAN requires a certificate (Deutsche Telekom Root CA 2) that, as per user instructions, I installed manually, but later discovered was already preinstalled. However, the preinstalled certificate cannot be selected in the Wifi config... I don't know if this is relevant.
Update...
Just as a quick update: When adding the WLAN, I got asked to select a locking mechanism for the login credentials store. I tried different ones, the error occurs regardless of which one I select.

[Q] yaaad popups (annoying) (urgent help required)

I am sick and tired of the yaaad popup virus/malware. At one time it was on 2 of my laptops and currently is on 3 of my android phones!
It happens whenever I click any link on any page inside any browser (chrome, default browser or dolphin browser) and a popup window is there starting always with image14.yaaad.com/LINKOFWEBPAGE.US and then it goes to google for a second and then goes to LINKOFWEBPAGE.US etc and then there are lot of ADs there. other variants are http:// images17.yaaad.com/. Everytime a new website opens and same style and new ADs come.
At the bottom of every popup page is '2015 GoDaddy.com, LLC. All Rights reserved' written.
It actually started in one go around 3 months back and go on 2 of my laptops and 2 cell phones both running Android. I freaked out when it came on my personal laptop and I used around 10 different Malwares removal and somehow I was able to remove it from my personal laptop ( The bad part is I dont know which software removed it )
The other work laptop still has the issue and it does not travel through USB etc.
My other android phones have this issue as well (Galaxy Nexus). Whether I use 3G of WiFi the popup comes and after they have opened up 3,4 times they stop for a while and then after a few hours etc, they come back again as if it's an endless loop. When I touch a link, the popup always opens in a new tab.
I recently bought a new tablet (WiFi only) and new phone as well. Both are using the same gmail ID and I am using WiFi on the tablet and no popup issue is there but when I inserted my sim (the old phone sim) the popup virus began on the new phone on the first webpage I opened (it wasnt there before I put in the new sim). The sim card cannot have this issue as I recently got micro sim issued....
HELP ME OUT.... There are 100s of softwares for cleaning PC, but I cannot access phone internal system and clean it as when you connect phone to laptop, you can only access the internal memory and the SD card and that's it....
I tried on my new phone something different which was to use a brand new gmail ID and I installed one app at a time to see if some APP is generating it. I installed whatsapp and then checked brower for half a day nothing happened, then I installed facebook and no issue, messenger followed and no issue took place and then VLC media player. Just yesterday morning I transferred my old phone contacts through a .vcf to my new phone and after 24 hours the popups are back.
Kindly help me as I feel that after these popups appear, they are draining the battery much faster and the popups are just annoying. Maybe my phone is at risk as well.
I have attached screen shots as well.
I would be glad if someone responds to this issue

Tried downloading an antivirus from the play store? No idea how well they work!
Brother you might want to check your router
Sounds like someone has setup a DNS redirect which is why you keep getting those popups on all devices
I suggest changing the password to all your credentials because they would have been intercepted by the server that the traffic is being directed through
