Android web view disabled, no option to enable - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

Hi there
I just noticed that Android System Web view is Disabled and the option to enable it is greyed out.
Why is that and do you guys notice the same on your phone.
Thank you for your time.

It is because you have Chrome installed and it is doing the work. No need to change the setup.

Greyed out "enable" button means it's already enabled.

[Q] How to change default browser's user agent?

The title says it all
I've tried the "about:debug" -method and it seems it's not working with ics browser. Any other ways to make the browser to act like desktop chrome?
In the menu (3 vertical dots top right of the screen), there is an option "Request Desktop Site", check that box. Its possible it may be under settings (im using a newer release, i don't remember where it was before (if it even moved))

Forgot to mention; that would also work if the option you just recommended could be made permanently "on" by default for all sites. Now I have to manually enable it every time I access sites.

ah, that is irritating. You could give Dolphin Browser HD (or Mini) a try; in the options you can set the user agent to desktop, iphone, ipad, or custom (!!)

No, not really, but now I know your question: how to make desktop user agent as default. Could have been clearer

I guess you're right.
If someone knows how to change the UA-string from the source, I could try to compile modded browser myself.
to make stock browser default desktop mode .
turn off wifi.
open browser.
top URL bar. TYPE, "about:debug" press enter or go
open the menu ,
click on setting
click Debug
Click UAString
then set to Desktop.
and your done.
when you set the default user agent to desktop can you request the mobile site?
EDIT:
Never Mind... It does not, but it appears that after doing this the debug option stays in the settings so I can switch back and forth between user agents now. Nice.

thats exactly what i was going to say.
I received an upgrade to 4.0.2 and had to redo this in my browser. The updated seems to have wiped it for some reason.

I second this. ICS Browser+ is MUCH better!!!!
I should put the ICS browser on the market with the debug menu enabled and renamed. Takes like 2 lines of code

unable to complete previous operation due to low memory

I was trying to upload a picture to a forum and it kept Chrome kept giving me the message "unable to complete previous operation due to low memory". Why does it do this and how can I successfully upload the image? I took the image with the camera on the Tab so it's not too big.
Usually low memory means you have low ram storage the best thing to do is to use app killers if you are rooted or just close apps when you are done with them aka instead of using the home button press the back button

I figured one solution for this that has worked for me. While I was working on an issue with the android stock browser, I realized there was an issue with clicking on a hidden form field using jQuery. I used this method on a file upload spot so I could style the upload form.
Developer fix:
The way around this is to set opacity to 0, position absolute and hide the form element. Hope this helps.
User fix:
I have not seen a user fix as of this point.
Hey just found a solution to this one

Worked for me too.
So where do I find 'Developer tools' on my Nexus 5?
The above suggested solution has not worked for me. I have cleared all history, shut down all tabs, updated to the latest version of Chrome. I have even uninstalled apps I have recently installed such as AVG protection (not even sure I need that, can anyone tell me?) ..and I tried to install an app killer and boot manager, both of which won't work without first installing Xposed Framework and when I tried to install that (after half an hour trying to find it) my phone went mad with warnings about bootloops and bricks and asked me if I was sure..fair frightened me to deaths and I abandoned the whole idea!
Now can anyone help me to solve this problem?
I can upload to Facebook fine but any other forums I'm still getting the 'Could not perform previous operation due to low memory! I have over 11GB of storage and plenty of memory as I'm not running anything. As stated I have a Google Nexus 5 on Lollipop Help!
it woork thanks so much

Where do I go to find "Developer Options"?
To get devoloper options open,
goto settings,
about device or about phone.
Then start tapping on build version or build number until developer options becomes available.
press the back button.
you should now be in settings and developer options should be near the bottom of the list.

Yep. That did it for me as well. What the hell? That is just weird they require that to be off. You can download a video, but not upload a picture? I can also upload it to the actual apps. But when I tried on the browser....... Nope. Tf?! lol. But yeah. Thanks for posting that. I would've probably been forever lost trying to find out why it wont.
Figured out
Removed the option to kill apps after use in developers options and it all worked fine for me
Thank you!
Solution worked here, too!
Makes sense to me. As soon as you select the photo, the system dumps the procedure, causing it to fail, and giving us yet another cryptic error message.

[Q] [B506] Background apps get closed and can't receive notifications

Hi all,
Has anyone experienced this with B506? Some apps like Telegram or WeChat get closed in the background just after a few seconds and then if someone messages me I don't receive the notification until I actually open the app (which completely defeats the purpose of the notification...).
Is this just a problem with my phone or has anyone else experienced this?
I know it's the app that's getting somehow closed because every time I start for example, Facebook or WeChat, I see the splash screen (which is only shown the first time an app is started).
Thanks for any help!
Are you allowing it to run in the background, and allowing it to startup at boot?

That's the thing, ever since I flashed B506 I lost that setting in the menu where we had the security options and could choose what runs in the background and what doesn't... I thought this was removed by Huawei on purpose. Do you still have it?

Do you have the Phone Manager app? All the options are there.
In settings, Protected apps is the setting for the background apps.

[email protected] and the OnePlus 3- Anyone running into any issues?

Has anyone run across issues with the MobileIron SecureApps module not being found after previously working just fine on the most recent OxygenOS Beta 13?
Yes, Mine is constantly losing configs, saying its not registered but works again when a force check in is done.
You know how your work has the config set up? I just finished deploying for our work environment using android enterprise and it is working flawlessly with exception of a few add-on launchers. I run several different ROMs and it works on all of them.

I am not sure. Now that I am on OOS Beta 19 it only seems to happen much less frequently. I have found you can just go to the Secure Apps app, it will prompt you for your password, and that this is enough to get the other apps (Mail, Calendar, etc) to see the Secure Apps and allow login. My Help desk raised a ticket with MobileIron, who acknowledge that they are aware of the issue. Now that I know I can get access restored by logging into Secure Apps module, it is not a headache anymore.
Why do you use such piece of software on rooted devices?

I am not rooted. That is what the Secure App module checks.

So, mobile iron fixed this issue, I was reading through their android corner the other day. Should've posted the content here for you. When I get back to work tomorrow on Monday, I'll try and remember to post the fix.
It's pretty simple, just have to enable secureapps at startup, but can't remember where to do this.

On the One Plus device go to Settings > Apps
Click on Settings

Scroll down and click on App auto-launch

Enable Secure App Manager

Since I'm running AOSP, I'm not really running into any issues. I'm also using my device as a BYOD, but hopefully this helps.
I'm trying to install the [email protected] app on my device OnePlus 3 which is running on Oxygen OS 5 (Android 8.0.0), I'm getting similar error message. With Oxygen OS 5 there is no option to Enable Secure App Manager or modify App Auto Launch settings. What is the work around? Please help.

I checked the mobile iron forums and have not seen a work around for Oreo. Strange however, I have it installed and everything is running fine. Are you using the device in a BYOD environment or in a corporate owned state?
A lot of [email protected] has to do with the way it is set up (phone to server), so without knowing all of this information, I can't necessarily recommend any fixes.
Can you throw up some app settings and screen shots by chance? Please blur out any information before hand that is no one else should know.

Just wondering why when you reenabled it it didn't work. A lot of people on here are using an app to disable services that you need a PC and your phone to work. I have disabled 20 or so services that I don't use but if I ever need them I can just reenable them with the app and have done so on occasion. Never the less I'm glad you got it straightened out.

It's a paid app that's not in the Play Store. I've used it on my Note 10, Note 20 and Fold 4 with no issues.
