I turned it on, and swiped on either direction across the back to recents, vice versa. But nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong?
Not sure if it matters, but I am using Nova Launcher.
I also have not been able to get it to work. I'm on a Verizon wireless model with the latest July update.

Update: I got it to work, somewhat, by turning off last pass accessibility.

Lastpass is a password management app. It requires permission to the accessibility settings to auto fill passwords. If you don't have Lastpass, it could be another app that's stopping mini view to work. Try going into settings, up on the search box type accessibility. You should be able to find it there and see which app is needing it.
i had the same issue, what i found out was that you have to swipe quickly , try swiping faster
It's not that.
Solution for those running Malwarebytes
FYI: I thought for sure that it was either Greenify, Gravity Screen, or Nova Launcher causing my Mini View not to work. They are all fine with Mini View.
I finally figured out that it is Malwarebytes causing the problem. By having Malwarebytes "On" in Accessability Settings this kills the Mini View for me.

Well I claim to be pretty good with phones and its not often i`m stumped on stuff like this.
I really need help though? My Nexus keeps talking to me!!
Its only on the web and some other web based apps like youtube. It will read out the letters as i`m typing into Google. It will read whole web pages to me too.
I have gone through the settings many times over. Def checked that Talkback was off. I have no idea whats making it do it.
My last Nexus did it too so I know its not a faulty handet.
Maybe an app I installed or a setting I just dont know about?
Anyone know what it is???
Take a look at accessibility. Its probably something there. Or your phone is possessed.

I noticed once I setup my google account it downloaded all my Market apps. Could you have a 3rd party app loaded which was downloaded to your last Nexus and current device which is reading the text outloud?
If you weren't sure, you could post up your list of 3rd party apps and I'm sure somebody might be able to recognize the issue?
Also, does it always happen on specific web pages or on all different web sites? perhaps you could record it and post up as somebody might recognize the voice pattern or web pages it reads?
Trying to gather more information in hopes of getting a more specific solution. Throwing out ideas .. hope that helps!

Mm true could be an app thats come across from my last Nexus. Is there an easy way to list all my apps? I have over 100 of them.
All web pages and some apps. It doesnt always speak either!
I`m trying to get it to say something it says when using some apps. I think it says "play" but i`m not too sure as I have my volume turned right down as the speaking is annoying me now...
Ok here is a video of it in the eBay app and on the net.
See what you think??

hmm,did you restart your phone after you turned off your setting's?
also try uninstalling all apps reboot and see if it still happens.
or do a factory reset and dont let the market download any thing.

Thanks but this wont help me find whats causing it only eradicate the issue.
I know doing this will fix it but it will come back.
I want to know whats making it happen really.
Cheers anyway.
Perhaps narrow your search down to apps you think might do this. Many apps will obviously not.

you must have accidently enable this.
its a feature of ICS. take a look.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnw8vh9y36Q&feature=player_embedded
unfortunately, i am not sure how to turn it off.
I HAD THIS ISSUE!
Drove me around the bend blurting out everything I went near on the net!
i spent about 2 hours clicking round , retracing steps, reclicking on things...suddenly it stopped.
Only thing I remember doing was opening up default.prop file in viewer out of curiosity so I did this again as well as other things and it stopped. Have you been viewing or even tinkering with any system files?
If this doesnt help try:
Go into your apps list and disable the TalkBack inbuilt app. That may mitigate the problem.

This accessibility part has something called talkback in which is turned off on mine. So not sure what else in there would cause it. ??

Ok I have disabled TalkBack app. No joy
I have not done anything to any files. Like i say it did this on my last Nexus so i`m guessing it may be an app i have installed.
Just wondering if its caused by Lightflow. That is the only app that asks for accessibilty on my phone.
Might try uninstalling.
Thanks for your suggestions anyway.
I spoke to Samsung last night and they went through some settings then said my handset is faulty!
I know its not and i arent changing it again, this is my 3rd one already!!
I had the same issue just from turning Talkback on and off... Like I really want to hear the time everytime I hit the power button ffs. I think it's fixed now (*touch wood*) but I had to screw around in the settings turning it off repeatedly to get it to stop working...
Did you just get your phone? I had the same issue when I got mine too. This wasn't just on webpages or YouTube app. This was EVERYWHERE. If I opened the app drawer, it would be like "launcher" or if I swiped to a different homescreen, it would say "screen 2" or something. I went to accessibility in the settings and turned off "Talkback". The phone stopped reading stuff to me after that.
Lmaooo!

This rom comes with the Google dialer by default which i find to be terrible, but besides the point the whole app has just stopped working. I want to reinstall the default HTC Phone app. I tried downloading an APK as well as the cousin People APK app that goes with it. I can access the dialer but I do not get a call screen. So i can't hangup or do anything unless I have some headphones plugged in then i can use the mic.
Any help on this matter would be appreciated, as i cannot do much with anything related to phone calls.
Just reinstall the Rom and make sure the Google Dialer is not selected in the aroma options.
Try set the Google Dialer as default dialer app on settings.

Just Dirty Flash the Rom. Dont wipe anything and reinstall
Pretty much what everyone else says. reinstall the rom "without wiping" or "dirty update" etc. Doesnt affact your data. I also had the issue your having, but it wasnt any kind of loss, I just wanted to know what the difference was and if it was any good. it worked breifly, and then it crashed constantly, so re-flashed rom with it not selected.

I did the reflash and all is well, thank you.
Since I see you are also on Leedroid would you mind telling me if you are having issues with GIFs? Mine all have a thick green line on them and they all play funky. Also the other thing that I can see wrong with the ROM is that if I use the Pixel assistant, OK google detection is greyed out, any ideas to fix either of these issues?
You must set the Google dialer as default in:
Settings ==> Apps ==> configure apps (from 3 vertical dot)

No using pixel assistant, so cant help there.
No issues with GIFs though. Anywhere in particular you're having the problem? I use the default HTC Gallery, and have had no issues. Also fine in apps like Facebook and Firefox.

I got it fixed, someone on reddit pointed out my firmware was still Marshmellow, Yikes! So after flashing the firmware to nougat and unlocking to US unlocked - also s-off. Everything works fine except the "ok google" detection. Still working on that.
I've done nothing to modify my phone (Root, etc.). However, I have disabled packages, which apparently cannot be re-enabled without root access.
My location services were working even after I disabled my phone's bloat, but about a week ago my GPS just stopped working. I can turn on location services, but apps don't receive my location. Not a single app knows where I am.
Anyone have this problem?

How did you disable the packages and do you know exactly what you disabled? If it was by using an app then there should be a way to re-enable them.

That's using the latest version available on Play? You could uninstall the app then reinstall it plus there's always the reset of your phone. In Package Disable Pro make sure "Hide System packages" isn't on. Also check the apps permissions.

Can anyone else edit WiFi advanced settings to change IP or proxy?
I am on the latest update (screenshot attached) while I was able to edit them when the software was at factory version.
I can't change it either.. btw have you rooted your phone?
Same here. Both proxy and trying to add a hidden wifi will crash the settings app. I notice that both of this has a drop down menu. Only when the drop down menu is sellected, the settings app will crash. Thats whats happening on my device. Btw im also on the latest update.
I assume you are talking about these settings while trying to connect a new wifi.
My a505g phone is still on the March update and my application is NOT crashing when I am trying to make the changes in the UI.
Please see attached. Seems like a bug for the new update.
I am able to get to advanced settings after april update
Try clicking "IP settings" or "proxy". After clicking, mine will crash.

Lately when I've been asking Google to set a reminder it ALWAYS says "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that" and shows the attached screen in my attachment
Hey Google, remind me at 3pm of my haircut. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Hey, Google remind me at 4pm to put on pants.. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Download the assistant app. I know it sounds dumb but try it. I had a similar issue when I had my pixel 3 the one that comes on it sux u need the full one from the playstore. a Few built in apps are like that and it's stupid to me.

I downloaded Google Assistant from the Play Store. When I say Hey Google it appears to still open the stock google assistant app and gives me the same result when asking it to do something.
If I manually open the Google assistant app that I downloaded as soon as I say Hey Google it just stops doing anything

Judging by the screenshot you didn't set it up fully yet. You're still showing the "GET STARTED" option. Did you go through all the steps to 100% complete the setup? That's what it looks like you need to do.

That getting started comes up every time. I've had this phone for almost a year and used Google Assistant all of the time. It's just recently that this issue has come up.
I'm going to uninstall what I can related to Google Assistant, clear data of what I can't and sign out of everything and then sign back in and see if that helps
EDIT: uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing data from some Google services, signed of my Google account linked to assistance and verything seems to be fine now
Back to doing it again...fml
You could try booting to safe mode and see if the problem persists. If not, there's an app interfering. If the problem is still there in safe mode, then that's something glitchy about the Google setup.

I haven't tried the reboot into safe mode yet. Sometimes Google Assistant gets its crap together and works fine and then other times it needs more information. At this moment it's working again. Once it acts up I'm going to do the safe mode way and see if that works.
