Is anyone else having the issue of their on screen nav buttons cutting off part of the google maps screen? When I'm navigating I can't see the ETA section or hit the 'X' to close navigation. Really annoying. I'm wondering if it's a maps app issue or possibly the ROM I'm using somehow. I'm on the latest ICE custom ROM. Also, it might be related, but when the pop up asking which app i want to use for various options pops up (ie when I click a number to call it asks if I want to use phone or skype) I can't click on the 'Just Once' or 'Always' option because it makes me hit the nav keys (even though I am hitting the 'Always' selection). Thanks for any help.

Just wanting to see if anyone is experiencing...
1. If you go to the dialer (from the home screen) - my previously called contacts do not populate. Meaning when I go to use the "smart dial" (# pad to find contacts) nothing comes up. This is how I usually call people.. so its quite annoying.
Side note - I can get them to show up, if I tap a single number then hit the back button (not the back capacitive touch button) - the one thats in the dialer.
2.When using the power bar widget (the one that comes with it) every time I click to turn on the GPS I am prompted with a message telling me:
"Be selecting Standalone GPS services, you are enabling access.."
I was certainly not prompted every time with my original incredible. Furthermore, this prompt seems to disrupt the power widget causing the bar underneath to not light up (signifying its on), even though it is.
I have since switched to Power control Plus which fixed the bar not lighting up issue - but am still prompted every-time.
Are you using LauncherPro? I was experiencing the same issue when using the LauncherPro default Phone dock shortcut with the previous call history not showing. I just "re-routed" the phone shortcut to the phone app and all is well.
Hope that helps.

Any fix for this? Is it present in custom ROMs?
few quick questions...
1. Is there a way to put a delay on the lockscreen once the screen timesout. I havent seen it in the settings (I try to use lockpro, but when I put a delay on it, it defaults to the phone lockscreen..any help with that?)
2. did the font choco..?? come on the skyrocket...How can i get. I did download the font app and it is not in there, nor the market
3. I could ask as many have, which is best, pandora iheartradio or slacker...or I could pick one that I like...Slacker. But more importantly, do any of them use less battery and data??
4. I am using Smart Keyboard Pro. Love it. But i am hitting some key, occasionally, and it repeats the previously typed word. What am I hitting, any idea? If sounds crazy, disregard LOL but it happens a ton
5. When I double tap HOME. the Voice Talk works. BUT...if I say Search Macy's expecting to find Macy's on the net OR say FIND Macy's expecting to find maps to the local Macy's...it does not happen like when I hold down the search key and say it.
I get a weird google page with a small search box. Is there a way to change the home tap to Voice Search instead of Voice Talk ... or to make it function like that?
Thanks so much

Hi guys
I have a stock DHD, which ran well, till I did an OTA upgrade.
Android 2.3.5
Sense 3.0
Software 3.13.161.3
Now there is this irritating navigation/location app that keeps on popping up.
I disagreed with the license, still it popped up.
I purchased the license key to see if it will stop, and it don't.
But the thing is, it is not the standard nav or location of the phone. it is something else, which I don't know, and I can't find it on my menu. I have to wait for it to pop up before I can access it.
The map on it is route66.
When I tap my phone button, there is a button for this app on the right side where the people button should be. But the weird thing is, it is not always there. When this app is active, the phone goes to speakerphone by default when making/receiving calls.
I am close to putting my DHD into a drum of acid and enjoy it melting away for good.
Anyone got any ideas what this is?
PS. I did a reset (phone off, volume down hold, press power......)
Spoke to the HTC call centre
Nothing.....
Pls help
O.k.
It is premium navigation. I can access it from within locations.
Anyone knows how to stop this from just spantaneously opening?

Only simple solution i can think of at the moment is blocking the process. Maybe an app on the market?
I tried app killers, disabled all location stuff, nothing works.
Guess I'll take the phone in to the agents to have it flashed back to the previous software, if I don't smash the thing against a wall first.
O.k. So the app that keeps on popping up, is the "car panel"
Any idea how I can stip it from popping up all over the show?
Open car panel from settings.. Now press menu to enter car panel settings.. There will be an option that says auto start car panel (or something like this) uncheck that option and you are done..
I had the same problem but that was before update.. After update to sense 3 I can't even find the car panel app in my sttings (the one with steering wheel icon)
So can't tell you exactly how it's done.. But going into car panel settings you would find the option.. Simply uncheck it.. If it still appears or you can't find the option simply uncheck autorotate in display settings...

I have installed Gooogle Now on my stock rooted Touchwiz ROM from the famous Google Now thread.
My only issue is something is hardcoded in the ROM to not allow me to change what app double tapping home starts. There are no apps on the market that say they can do this that work either. I have tried them all.
My issue now is that if I double tap Google Now's "Voice dialer" only shows up which is an activity within the Now application. I have turned s-voice off as I think Now is better. So basically double tapping (which is also the same thing as holding down a bluetooth device's button for voice search to come up) I can only tell it to call people using the Google Now app. Other people on AOSP ROMs can get the full Now Voice Search to show up when double tapping but something in Touchwiz always defaults it just to the "voice dialer" instead. If I uninstall Now I get an option on double tap to choose s-voice or the normal ICS voice search so I know it can be changed but that same window does not come up asking which default task to use when double tapping with Now installed. I have cleared all defaults also, and that window still doesn't pop up.
So something in the Touchwiz ROM prevents me changing what double tap does, or it is something in Now, but I find that unlikely since other people with other devices (even the SII running touchwiz) can change the function.
Any help would be appreciated.
say 2 things, new to oreo and s9, last phone was an s7. anyways, if i had a program running in the notifications, say for my motorcycle gps, tomtom, i was able to long press the notification, then go to app data and force stop. not seeing that anymore.
Trying to find the fastest way to force stop an app running, that has a notification. for example this one says connect device. I am not trying to hide the notification, but force close it when i don't want it running. for example this app gives me live traffic, sometimes i want it, sometimes i don't.
hope this makes sense, and thanks.
anyone have any ideas here, to force stop an app.
thanks
I'd make use of the built in Device Maintenance. If you enter this menu and click the 3-dot menu on the top right, you can add a shortcut to your Apps List. You can then place this wherever you want on your homescreen. You'll be able to quickly enter the Maintenance sub-menu and then put whatever you aren't using to Sleep, immediately.
There may be a way to add an icon to your lock menu to jump right to it (using a 3rd party shortcut app,) but I haven't swam that far in the sea yet.
recents, long press the app icon on the left, wait for the i info letter to appear on the right, press i, force stop.
this was posted elsewhere. seems like the ticket !!
