[Q] Chrome for Android Background Media? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I remember about a year ago, Chrome was updated with support for playing media even if Chrome was in the background or the phone had its screen off. I tried using it today for the first time in a while, and that feature doesn't seem to be working for me anymore. Anyone know if it was taken out of Chrome? Are you having a similar issue? Any suggestions/fixes?
On a Nexus 5 stock, rooted, xposed BTW.

[Q] I think my phone is hacked

Last night I was at a bar for 4 hours with a friend. When we left, I saw that my Android phone had a new background. Instead of the normal black one, it was now a photo I took of a colleague some months ago, while he was mooning (showing his ass).
This seems too specific to just have been pockettriggered and the phone never at any point left my pocket. My best guess is that someone has had remote access to my device and were able to see my photos and setting a new background. Has anyone of you ever heard of something similar before?
My phone is a Nexus S with Cyanogenmod 10.2.0-RC1 (Android 4.3.1). All my apps are from Google Play and all should be legit (no shady apps)

[Q] Every App Crashing

When i open pretty much any app, it either crashes or continues to function properly EXCEPT when it needs a keyboard. For example Chrome, I try to type in a web address and then it just sits there waiting for the keyboard to open, before crashing. This is also happening with games, Such as Clash Of Clans, which crash upon loading.
I'm not running any 3rd Party Launchers/Keyboard, completely stock HTC Sense.
I was running Themer but uninstalled it about 2 weeks ago
I was running SwiftKey (legit) when this started, I turned it off, and has done nothing, apps still crash etc.

Is your phone rooted? This happened to my friend (keyboard wasnt working, apps crashing) because he flashed the wrong gapps into CM 10.2, but i know you said it is completely stock sense. If you didnt root or flash an incorrect gapp, I would factory reset. If you do, BACKUP first. There might be a better solution than my kind of last resort deal, but it shouldn't hurt.

Google play music starts automatically and randomly

Hey guys,
As the title describes it, the play music app starts randomly playing music in the background. My current device is the HTC one m8, that issue happend on aosp, gpe and sense Rom. Does someone have the same issue? I already googled about it, but the only solution I've found is to deactivate the app. Is there no other work around, because I use the all access service therefore I can't disable it
Thanks in advance
The same thing has been happening to me since I updated my M7 with Material Design GPM. It will randomly begin playing after I've paused it and locked the screen. It's getting annoying tbh, like I just woke up, and reached for my phone of course. It's only 6 am here, so obviously I don't want to wake anyone else up. However my phone just randomly started playing Taylor Swift when I picked it up.
Weird, right?
Yea.. somehow it stopped doing this now for me, I don't know what I did... Maybe an update of play services? Or the app itself? Can't remember when or why it stopped doing this sorry :/
Bump!

So I am running slimkat on huawei y300 and I first noticed a problem with the reddit

So I am running slimkat on huawei y300 and I first noticed a problem with the reddit is fun app. It would only load 25% of the image if I used the in app browser so I had to use the external browser. But then it happened in Tinder where images and moments (more images) wouldn't load in the app. Then snpachat was effected. So when it became clear that the problem was just going to effect more and more apps I decided to stop being lazy and format the phone. Still happened when I downloaded the apps again. So I wiped everything on the phone, installed the most up to date gapps and rom and still the same problem... wtf?? I don't even know how it's possible anymore since it obviously isn't the app since millions of people would have issues and I wiped my phone several times so it couldn't be bad installations/file systems. The only thing I could think of trying next was to change the google account, still the same issue only in the same apps. Anyone any idea on what this is?

Dell 3730 Venue - reboots on 4.4.2 - anyone experience the same?

Just wondering if anyone here is having issues on the latest 4.4.2 stock image with reboots?
I originally got my Venue, it seemed to work ok. I loaded up just basic things (Apex loader, clash of clans) etc.
I find when looking at youtube videos then going into clash of clans either with a fresh load or switching back to the background app the tablet will goto the Dell initial startup screen, I need to wait for the tablet to fully bootup fresh again before I can carry on using it. This happened mostly with clash of clans, but then started happening when exiting other apps (youtube to browser sessions).
I've since installed 4.3 stock but I miss immersive mode, I've tried an app that auto hides the soft key buttons and enters full screen mode but it's just not the same.
Wondering if anyone has had similar issues and worked around them while staying on 4.4.2 ?
