I feel really really stupid for having to post this, and so I hope it's a difficult solution.
I suddenly cant work out how to paste stuff? I can type a word, hold down on it, select the cut or copy button. But I cant get the Paste option show up. I'm doing the exact same thing I've done for other Android versions. I'm on the SGS3 and I've had the the previous 2 galaxys, it's running 4.0.4 & XXLEF firmware.
What's wrong with me?

Probably gonna be a terrible response but I sold one the other day and the customer had a problem with copy and paste on the S3 cuz she had long nails... She could do it just fine on my Nexus, but had trouble on her S3. I however could do either perfectly fine. Maybe it's the angle you're doing it at or even try holding it down longer....
Again, probably not gonna help your situation... but figured id share

I just had a look on Renovate 3 4.0.4 ROM HTC OneX of a guy I work with and copy paste function works fine for him... do I need to be asking in the SGS3 forum?
Can I ask what firmware the S3 had? I'm using Swiftkey3 and have tried GO Keyboard and the same problem, copy and paste isn't dependent on which keyboard you use?
I've just tried doing this out of my imo messenger and it crashed it, it's also been crashing Chrome when I tried copying. So this seems to be a Samsung thing... Can I have this moved to the S3 forum Q&A please, thanks...

Like I say, when I hold down on a word it selects the word for me :good: Still doesnt fix the paste problem
Install Clipper from Play Store to pin-point the problem. See that texts go to clipboard or not. Or, the problem is with pasting only.

Its working cross application like the other user posted. Try a reboot. Might just be a glitch or bug that occurred. If its still happening, do you have any copy n paste apps like clip it or something installed?

Let us know if that fixes it or not. Being rooted or not has no bearing on whether copy n paste functions work or not.
It took me a while to get use to this.
But this is working for me.
CTRL+X and
CTRL+V
I'm doing this right now from the slightly buggy Chrome
Beta that is bugging out as I try to type this.
Just remember that you have to first select over a word with your cursor in a text box window by holding down on it for a second until the double blue arrow appears so you can adjust your selection. Then the cut, copy, or paste keyboard command should work.
Hi all
I've encountered a problem on my S2 regarding contacts. When I do a search by entering any letter those persons who have these letter will show on my screen. The functionality in that regard is working fine however it will also show up those persons that I've marked as hidden.
For instance I unmarked for show any contacts from my sim card. However when I do a search it will show any persons with that letter including those from my sim card?
Anyone know this problem and how to fix it?
I believe this either happened when I updated the firmware to the latest. ics 4.0.3 and dunno if its a known problem?
Or it could be related to me rooting my s2.
However I did a stock firmware install but the problem still persists.
I've tried on mine and I get duplicates too. I think the hidden ones only stay hidden in your Contacts menu and not your search function. Either this is a default thing or it can be edited using a script. Either way, I don't have a problem with it, but I can see why it is annoying you. Sorry I can't help much, I'm a bit of a noobie myself.

Thank you for replying because I certainly needed a confirmation that it wasnt me that messed up my phone.
Alternative solution would be to simply delete all contacts in my sim card and it would ease my annoyance but still I would say this is not very optimal.
But you did help me by replrying .. thank you.
EDIT:
A friend of mine who also has a s2 but who is still on gingerbread do not have this problem. So I suspect either my phone to be the culprit which seems not to be the case, it would have to be an issue on ICS in general?

hmmmm ok, well i saw that but skipped over it
because on all my other roms/including stock, i dont remember it being an app,it would just auto-connect
and it was always a system apk as well
let me go check it out though
It was excluded because CM10 has absolutely nothing to do with ATT. Or any phone for that matter. So unless somebody kangs CM10 and adds in an app, it's going to always be as bare bones Android as you can get.
Essentially, CM10 isn't ever a bloat removed version of any phones stock ROM, because it's build from aosp source, so the bloat was never there to begin with, and likely wouldn't be added in anyways.

I like that app as well. That wsa the only thing I didn't like about my ROM, so I did a nandroid, restored to stock, pulled that system app, and restored my nandroid.
Lucky for you and anyone else that wants it, I just happen to have placed it in my Dropbox.
Make sure to place it in /system/app (Don't install it like a normal APK) and change permissions to rw-r--r--
You will need to manually connect to attwifi the first time if you haven't already.

the system app one, like if you're at mcndonalds , will connect to it automatically (mcndonalds is one of the stores on ATnT wifi partnerships)
if you didnt have the app, you can still connect(its free wifi no password) but you would have to first open up a browers, read the agreement, and hit accept blah blah, before you can start using the wifi. again the system app skips all that and just connects you

It also skips all the payment info at some places that still charge for WiFi, so long as it's powered by AT&T. I wouldn't mind having this feature back as well, even though I'd rarely ever use it. Honestly, my cell is faster than the WiFi at any Starbucks or McDonalds around here. But I can see a use for it while traveling. Maybe download one of the stock ROM flashable zips and just extract the necessary apk, put it in /system/app and see if it will work that way. I'd try myself, but I'm a tad busy lately and already in trouble for all my downloading this month.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, the one on Play is too bloated. I don't want that junk handling all my WiFi.
Is this what you guys are looking for

Well, Mr. Useless Retort, I was searching for this very apk and was about to download it until I looked at his stats. You see, the fact that a post is a year old doesn't make a lot of difference if it has information you need. You see, Mr Useless, that's why the forum goes back many years.
Note that my reply wasn't intended for him, it was to warn off anybody else who might think about downloading this.
See how that works??
I think you can get this apk from the market, or what I do is google for apks -- especially older ones when the market updates me and the update sucks. I haven't been burned yet.

I think you're right, it's server based as it runs in real time whether you're in the game or not.
I have an issue though.. I have two devices and would love to have the game running on both.. the phone during the day and a tablet in the evening.. does anyone know where the account info is?, if I can copy the account data from my phone to the tablet (or vice versa) I could play from the last saved place each time.
Any thoughts?
I'm actually checking into this as well, as far as I can tell its in the root folder data/data/ea.comsimpsonsblahblahbl I can confirm that the "other" town is the files in save folder because I deleted them and now I force close ONLY when visiting other Springfield.

Your issue seems like it could be sorted by downloading it to both with same Google account no? Im not entirely sure as I only own phones but if it syncs online you would think right?

Search for "Game Killer" its like game CIH and game guardian but actually works, if you need a tutorial you'll have to wait until I'm home from work lol

i'll try that game killer..
Just reset mines last night, you have to wipe everything and reflash your rom. Seem like the file that connect our phone to their server is hidden some where. And for whoever uses GameKiller cheats, before you close the game, make sure you buy the "Homer Buddha" until you get more Donuts.
on my galaxy s3 i just uninstalled and re-installed the game and my data was gone easy

I had figured out how to work Game killer, but when I went to the alternate universe, my donuts went back down to 2, I thot I had saved the hex addresses to go back to but its not there, any way u know the hex addresses I would need to change the donuts field for?
I actually had the same problem, tried a lot to find it again as well, what did work though was I bought a crap load of land in game and just spam bought dumpsters for 1000$ as they give you exp to lvl up the fastest, lvl up = donuts((to raise search value higher again, I recommend 5 donuts or above.))

Gamekiller download
Hi, can any of you link to the gamekiller apk please? I'm can't find it to download from anywhere I trust!
Also a tutorial on how to use it with the Simpsons tapped out would be great.
Thanks
There is also a modded apk floating around out there, I'm sure if you use Google you can find it.
The real trick is how do you reload your current world after reflashing a rom? I think a hard reset also disconnects you from your current world. The game server must have some way of identifying your phone, the phone name maybe?
That should allow you to play on multiple devices too. If you could figure out what the severs look for to identify your device.
has anybody found out how to put an old simpsons game onto a new phone?
I.e. i have a long gaming going on my old phone but i want to transfer it to my new phone.
My old phone is rooted and i find a file in .android_secure
new phone isnt rooted so cant access that folder to copy into it, if thats the right folder.
Not possible at all - it's linked to your device's hardware.
I have a odd question.. my phone is a Samsung galaxy S2 and recently it started have a weird error whenever I am writing text. If I'm typing and I type the word "side" si goes through the rest doesn't , sometimes my keyboard will stop working and for a few mins if my keyboard is working when you hit space it deletes the last word. Anyone got a clue as to what's happening? I tested other parts it's only that letter combination that causes it. Thank you

No. No idea what that is. No. And I haven't done really anything other then locking my phone and unlocking it usually fixes it until i type the word again.
