Ok so I'm about to lose my fu**ing miiiiind here!! Every single touchwiz rom has the same stupid problem! Whenever I'm in my browser and I hit my back button it takes me all the way back to my original google search bar without fail! It doesn't even bring me back to my search results, it goes all the way back to where I type the words in the top bar and I've tried everything and nothing stops it! Every rom I've tried has this problem and I hate it, does anyone have any remedies?!
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!

I am using Opera Mini Next on my GeeWiz Rom and I do not have that issue. I hit the Back button on the phone and my pages back up one at a time.
Have you tried using other browsers or are you too attached to the built in browser?
I installed Opera Mobile litteraly minutes after I got my phone, and I have experienced no such problem before with it. If you're using the slow, laggy Stock browser, I have one question for you: Why?!
Also, do you open your browser by using the google/bing search, or do you enter "through the front door," i.e, using the icon? Either way, though, I just tested my browser both ways, and this phenomenon you're experiencing has yet to occur. What ROM are you using, exactly? Have you tried TSM Resurrection?
I installed opera, and everything is solved. I admit, I'm an idiot for not thinking of this.
And yes, I've tried EVERY rom and they all had the same problem.

The Dolphin browsers are nice as well, and I don't recall having that problem with them on SC3 or TSM Res.

Get the same problem. Its inconsistent though. Someone else gave me the tip if you get locked out turn your KB into landscape and it will work again. I also noticed if you prompted to log back in, press cancel, then back (@ loading prompt) and you will still be logged in. I'm thinking this might be party of the problem though.
anyone know if this is exclusive to the Vibrant or if it is just with the android in general?

I use the app on my compal tablet with no problem, but on my vibrant it acts up sometimes. Last night every single time I would post the app would pop a FC window and would put me back to the main menu of the app. The KB issue I've seen in other apps such as facebook and even "send dev an email" in the market, so it may not be an issue with just xda app.
For those people that enjoy the use of the Genius button and Dragon Dictation.
This is the Genius button app that came stock with the MT4G/Glacier put into a flashable zip. It was taken from the stock MySense Rom and has been confirmed working on CM7 nightly #5+ at the time of this post. It also includes the app called Button Shortcut (free on market). It can be used to open any app using the Genius Button. It should also work on HTC Froyo Roms too. Much thanks to the CM team for making CM Roms compatable with these apps.
This needs to be flashed/installed from ClockworkMod Recovery. Install it just
like you would flash a rom. You should not need to wipe anything first.
Please hit the "Thanks" button if you like this.
[Download Here]
So just flash the file and it will automatically work with the button or is it just the app itself?

You want to flash it just like you would a rom. It will only add the apps not configure the button.
But I will be including the app called "Button Shortcut" (free in the market) in the zip but I haven't had a chance to put it in there yet. Probably will later tonight if I get time. For now you can just download it from the market. Just install it and have it open Genius on the longpress of the search button (our genius button) that us as close as you can get to the original function but its better cause you get text search on normal press and Genius on longpress.

It opened Car Home fine for me but I have reverted back to stock and the app on stock is a little different. It is called car dock and it seems to possably be intertwined with HTC Sense. I am checking it out and will get back to you.

I am on build #5. I would imagine that build #3 was before CM7 was coded to work with this app. I would suggest upgrading from that nightly to one that is a little more recent.

Ok, after Nandroiding back to stock a couple times and throughly checking out the "Car Dock" app in it there are 2 things I have to say. It is a HTC app and uses the components of Sense, so it will not work. Second...I would definitely use the "Car Home" app that is on CM. It is 10 times better. The stock sense app only has 5 choices of things to open but the Car Home app on CM has the ability to open 23 different things. You can set a button for it to open Genius just like the stock HTC one does. I also have Vlingo (free in market) and have set a place to open the "Vlingo InCar" app. That gives you a very nice hands free experience for driving.
All you have to do is push the genius button and say:
"Open Car Home" and it will open the app.
Check it out...
Hope this helps.
this was working great for me up until about 30 minutes ago when after checking out the car dock in cm7, someone sent me a text and instead of having to read it normally - hands-free mode kicked in and played it outloud. now after quitting the car dock, instructing the app to turn off, rebooting phone, even pulling the battery out for a few, hands-free mode will not turn off no matter what. there's a genius button icon in the notification bar as well that is stasis. anyone else having this issue? any ideas on how to correct it?
edit #1: I finally killed it by pulling battery while phone was on. All is fine for now, though I wonder if it would happen again.
edit #2: if it means anything, i'm using gosms and the #7 nightly.

Ok...i just checked this out. For some reason dragon dictation is continuing to run. You can give the command to genius to turn off car mode and it says it does but the icon is still up there. Not sure if it is ready in cart mode still our not. You can go to settings/applications and force close the dragon dictation app to remove it from your status bar. I will so some more checking and see if I can figure anything out for this prob.

i believe it is. as long as that icon is in the notification bar, any incoming text message was read outloud - even after the reboots.
thanks for looking into this. either way, it's a simple fix if it happens again.
just quick note: when installing in clockwork...dragon dictation is misspelled
it says dragon dicktation instead of dictation

Ok...you can also say "hands free off" and it will turn off. Icon will stay for some reason. I rebooted and it disappeared and I haven't been able to get it to do put up the icon again. Even if I tell it to turn hands free on. Not sure what's up hands free seems to be working great tho

Ok so ive someone else post about this before just canteen remember if it was on another forums or not.
Ok so earlier today i was messaging someone and i was trying to get out the message screen but my phone was taking too long or i was just impatient but anyway i kept hitting the home button then i hit the back button and all of a sudden i heard a shutter sound. Sooooo i went into my gallery and there it was a seperate folder just for "screenshots" and mind you i do have the shoot me app and the folder for that is "shoot me". Has anyone else ever experienced this? I thought it was so cool that there is/was a built in screenshot but just wish i knew how to do it again i was so excited!!

I posted this same question in the axura beauty thread. I thought it was a special addition to the axura rom. I found out that its not a rom special but its actually an android feature, only problem I haven't got an actual answer on how to access this feature nor do I know what to look for. I have googled this several times and all I get are results telling me about drocap or shootme and how to use the ddms in order to screenshot without root.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I know for a fact how to do this. I don't think you can force a screenshot with any soft touch keys but you'll notice the screenshot goes off when you're exiting an app/browser and the system freezes up briefly and when you try to hit home on the frozen screen it takes the screenshot. It's happened to me on a few occasions and I distinctly told myself to remember what was happening when the screenshot goes off and turns out it always goes off when my screen is frozen and I hit my home key, while thinking my back button wasn't registered and in fact, was registered and I just got impatient and hit my home button.
I've got a feeling it's a bug log kind of thing. Every post I've seen about it mentions that the phone locked up, and the user pressed buttons rapidly. Sure, we can take Screenshots! You have to have a crashing app to do it though.
This topic has been covered soooo many times not only here on XDA but google.

If you have a vibrant running stock froyo.ka6 you can try this screen capture app from the market:

Hmmmm it seems like StevenJCarney might be correct. Like he said it seems like it happens when peoples phones lock up & it could be a bug.
Hope it isnt a bug & someone is able to figure it out.
Same exact thing here. It really sucks an app has to crash to use it.

If you have a rooted phone you can just use an app called screenshot which works perfectly. And it's free.

Ok heres whats happening....
first of all, my phone is rooted and i have the latest super clean and kernal.... this has been happening on a variety of kernals and roms tho..
Randomly, out of nowhere, my phone reboots. (maybe this is normal, the kernal is crashing?)
the problem is that once it comes back, i seem to be missing some system applications like my contacts app (whenever i click on contacts in the phone, it crashes, and i dont have a contacts app to click)
and sometimes, my phone Settings app.... if u try to click menu on the home screen and click settings, nothing happens..... and i cant place widgets..
I have to reodin the phone completely and start from scratch....
This happens like once every couple weeks or so....
any ideas?

It sounds like some of the apps may be incompatiable with the verison you're using. I had a somewhat similar problem when first getting into roms. It may be worth going back to stock and then reflashing to the latest SC.
Not sure.. If it was just a compatibility problem I think it would not work right away... The problem I'm having is random after a spontaneous reboot

I am not really sure but this might be happening due to a virus or malware. Which RoM are you using?

Stock Gingerbread. 2.3.4!
Try installing any free antivirus and scan your phone. I recommend Netqin

It can also happen if you apply a wrong patch, or flashed something that was not supposed to be flashed on a stock ROM.

No viruses, never flashed or patched anything! :|
maybe because cache is full, can make phone become crazy sometimes.
moreover u said ur on full stock rom without any modification. pure stock rom stores cache in phone memory and it'll be full and cluttered overtime.
