Hello, I recently loaded Rainbowmod 2.1 I believe it was, and it's been working great until a half hour ago. When I went to open a link from a text message (the link included in the welcome message you first get when loading) nothing happened. I then tried to open IE manually with the front screen tile and the actual tile in file list and nothing happened and the search button which i linked to google search does nothing. I can switch my task to a previously open IE window and it worked but I cant open it otherwise. Ive rebooted twice and it has not fixed the problem. Ive turned off any third party software I've downloaded recently just in case with no effect. Any help would be appreciated. I'm on a Lumia 710
Found a solution on the Microsoft forums, but since I saw this same problem repeated on many forums and only found one answer that didn't require a full reset I figured I'd post the fix rather than delete this post (Forum Moderator may still delete if you wish)
Changing the IE option from Open in New Tab to Open in Current Tab was the fix... placing it in open in new tab broke the interwebs... go figure

Is anyone else having problems using the camera/barcode scanner with 2.11.605?
Every time I try and launch the camera app it takes a moment or 2 of a black screen and then just returns back to the home screen. When I try and launch the barcode scanner, i get an error message saying something about encountering a camera problem and to reboot.
Even after rebooting or even fully shutting down and restarting, i can't get the camera to work.
Any advice/info?

Found the answer - not sure i understand the relationship though:
FIX:
1. Go to Settings and select Date & Time.
2. Un check Automatic
3. Change the time to 08-01-11
4. Go and open your camera (it should work now)
5. Now you can go back and check Automatic in the Time & Date Setting

Not sure you understand the search function either. This subject has been covered in at least 4 threads, as well as fixes posted in 2 threads on XDA as well as Thunderbolt related development forums, namely RootzWiki, TheMikMik, and TeamBAMF.net. The above is NOT the fix. It's a temporary get-around. The problem lies with .lib files dealing with the camera that expired the last day of August. In my [q AND a] thread under the "NOTICES:" you'll see a link to a file called camera.zip. Download this and flash it via ClockworkMod.
Hey guys
Ive just upgraded from to the Galaxy s2 (from an HTC desire) and first impressions are that i love it. I have a few q's that i hope some people can help me with:
1. On my home screen, i cant change/move the very bottom line of apps (phone/contacts/messaging/applications). Is there anyway to switch these out with something else (a different app)?
2. HTC has friend stream which is a full page widget showing all your facebook/twitter updates. The s2 has social hub, but is there anyway to show this in a full page widget?
3. Is it possible to assign an option to long press the (soft) back button? The menu button already brings up google search, and quite simply i want long press back to bring up voice search
4. The interal storage (12gb or something like that) current shows as USB storage, which prevents me from moving apps across to it. Any way to rectify this?
5. I have already rooted my phone. Will i still be able to take OTA updates without any problem? (something you couldnt do on a rooted HTC)
6. Any way to stop the default internet browser from opening websites in mobile view? Ive seen a workaround which only lasts the session, but just wondering if theres a permanent one (dont want to use opera as it doesnt have flash working/working well yet).
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help

I'll try my best, here goes..
1. Open the app drawer by pressing the home icon on the dock-->press menu then edit. Now you can drag any icon you wish to the dock then hit menu again and save.
2. I don't think there is a social hub widget (at least I don't) but you can download a third party app/widget that will be similar to friends stream.
4. The internal storage is always under "usb storage" in settings/storage. What are you trying to move?
5. Yes, as long as you don't change your firmware.
Hey
thanks for your help Im just trying to move some apps which ive downloaded across to the sd storage but it keeps telling me im out of memory. Im guessing this is because i havent yet added my own microsd, but thats on the agenda for tomorrow
Your welcome. You got it, once you install an external sd you will be able to move files to and from the internal storage.
I'm using Opera, and the flash seems to work fine for me so far, might be worth trying it (especially since it's free).
does seem to be working now...its been a long time since i last tried it
sorry to hijack the thread but does anyone else notice that when you put apps into a newly created folder (for example I have one called favourite apps) and the icons within that folder have moved around....you know how you by habit press a couple of buttons and bam your in xda well because these moved around I launched dilbert! not that this is critical but just wondered if anyone else notices this behaviour?
I tried to post this in the galaxy s4 all in one root thread, but it said I didnt have permission, and I dont see a verizon s4 root specific thread so Im posting here.
I discovered the problem when I was messing around with the root app, multi window manager. Upon setting it up, then trying to drag my new apps over (in the edit screen), and remove some of the default, I was unable to do either. The default apps in the toolbar wouldnt even move and the ones I was tryin to add would drag but I was unable to drop them in.
I finally uninstalled the app, and tried to edit the multitask bar without the app, and got the same results. Couldnt edit anything, apps woudnt budge.
SO far thats the only issue Ive had after rooting, I hope there arent anymore to come.
UPDATE:
K fixed it. For anyone else that migh have this problem just toggle your multiwindow funtion off, then back on and you should be good! Worked for me.
Hey all,
I just got my 9 pro. I started testing the phone without a SIMcard and played around a little and I was able to sort the quick access buttons (see screenshot if I'm messing up the description of these things).
There was also a quick access button named "sort" where I was able to sort them.
After a factory reset I've set up everything as I wanted an then went on to sort these things. At first I had only one page without any bullet points to swipe left/right, after a restart I was able to swipe left and right.
But I still can't sort it, kinda because I would like to have the grey scale mode. And in general to be able to sort them.
I went to all the settings but no point to find what I needed. Is this a common error or any ideas to fix?
Edit: can't upload an image, trying to fix the error
I though I had seen this somewhere on these forums, but it might have been somewhere else. Apparently it has to do with how google backups are synced to the device. It can be easily fixed with ADB using the line found on this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/how-to-reset-restore-quick-setting-to-t3671583
Dont forget to turn on USB debugging on your device to get this done.
3 month old Samsung A525G on TMO network (recently updated to android 12 One UI 4.0 but was doing the same prior to update).
Using Gboard, but also happens using Samsung keyboard.
I am having this issue constant little pops ups at the bottom of the screen that say "Item already copied to clipboard" if i copy something, sometimes even if i haven't it seems..but it also appears if i long press in a text field to PASTE something already on the clipboard, and then if i hit paste , it will pop up again' Item already copied to clipboard(even though i just PASTED and item)
I also don't need reminded ever single time i copy something " Copied to clipboard".
Ive done searching and some users seem to think it is related to KDE connect, and uninstalling it resolves the issue( but in the s20/21 series) but i do not have KDE connect installed that i can find.
I do a lot of copy paste and this is really annoying, is there any way to turn off these "reminders"?( i don't think there is) but is there any way to resolve this?
having the same issue on an s10+ andro12 but with swiftkey, also I do not have acces to the clipboard ... a way of samsung to oblige us to use their keyboard ???
The work-around with swiftkey seem to be their own clipboard (on top of the keyboard) which is less comfortable than the way we were all used to do it ...
I am using GBoard on A12 with no problems with clipboard
I don't have that problem but i hate when i have something in clipboard and if i take a screenshot in the meantime clipboard is cleared.
Same here!!
