Sometimes when I open facebook video it goes to end of video and won't start it, sometimes when I scroll it won't load new content so I have to close app and open again, also I can't press that big like button ( that gets bigger if you hold it ) on messenger, is this for everyone ? I am on MIUI global 7.8.21.8

This is really annoying when am in the middle of a movie and i pause and press the home screen or do some other stuf on the phone but when i go back to the album to continue I ll have to start al over again.
Isnt there something like a taskbar where programs not terminated are minimized until they are reopened or terminated.?
Please advise
Cheers
The only Taskmanager like app is press and hold the Home key, you will get up a list of the previous 6 running programs. Whether or not they will put you back in the same place as you were before is dependant on Android.
the only thing i know of, is to hold the home button, and the 6 most recent apps pop up, and you just click on the app you want and it goes right to how it was b4 you were interrupted.
use meridian evolve from the market, it automatically resumes video.
i know its not exactly what your asking for but it is a solution.
Meridian work great. There is also an app called motion launcher which allow you to quickly switch among previous running apps by shaking the phone twice. It's on the market as well
Probably one of the most annoying thing to me on the s3 is the stock messaging app. When you open it you are always in the last message that you viewed before, even if you just received a new message. I think if you get a new message it should either open in that new message or at least open on the main list of all your messages.
Is there a setting that i am missing to change it from always opening on the last message that you viewed?
If you closed the messaging app by pressing the home button than it will open at the same place you left last time but if you close it by pressing the back button than next time when you open it will open in the main menu...
It requires you to press the back button twice as appose to just ones with the home button but it is at least a work around. Thanks for the tip! I will just have to get in the habbit of doing that. Thanks again
I'm using the Evo 4G LTE if that's necessary information or not... Lately for some reason, every time I close out an app and then re-enter it, it loads back up to where I last was or last thing done rather than the main page. For example, open facebook app, it takes me directly to the last notification I looked at rather to my newsfeed and it will continue to take me to that notification when opening the program until I look at another notification. With instagram, it takes me to the image upload screen, the one where you crop the image before uploading it; all the time. It gets annoying having to navigate back to the main page. Anyone know what's up?
Umm. It's multitasking...

How is that multi-tasking by, for instagram's example, sending me to the upload page of a picture that i've already uploaded? At that point I shouldn't be brought to that page again with the same photo after I've already cropped and uploaded it.
It's going to open up where you left off - that way you can, say, start writing a post with tapatalk, go respond to an SMS, then go back to writing your post without losing your progress.
Instagram is one app, it's going to behave how it's designed to behave. I would assume it's taking you back to that page because it can't really take you to the post-upload page. So it just goes to the point nearest where you left off... but I don't use instagram, so that's just speculation.

Your explanation is how I believe multi-tasking is supposed to work and has been but let me explain what's happening in terms of a message board. I click new reply, write my statement and then click submit reply, and i'm now back at the thread page. So in essence, if I now switch out of the browser then go back to it, I should be back on the thread page. But instead, it brings me back to the reply page where I would be writing my response before clicking submit reply (if that paints the picture anymore clearly).
It's not just with instagram but it's with facebook and a few other apps. After doing some messing around after reading your response I did kill the tasks, re-open the apps and they loaded to their default pages as they should. so it's something that's causing these apps to re-open to the last action you did inside the app rather than the last thing you were viewing in the app.
in phone settings don't you have the option to close app by long pressing back button?

Is there a way to change JB new behavior when clicking notifications (like from GTalk, GMail) to GB way?
In GB when i clicked on new mail and exited back, i was at my previous app, like browser.
But now i end up on home screen, and have to use Recent apps to go back to browser.
e.g i have to waste 3-8 seconds (press and hold home button and then wait for previews to popup and then click on app) to go back to what i was doing.
Hmm, i have no such issue with ongoing notifications... Maybe this is a clue?
hi, I installed cm-12-20150204-NIGHTLY-hltespr.zip and my camera doesn't work when the flash is on. the camera app will hang but not force close but I'm not able to press the shutter again until I lock/unlock the device.
edit: now it doesnt work at all. it used to take and save pictures when the flash was disabled but now it just hangs on the view finder and i am unable to toggle any options until i close it (long press on home and flick away) and relaunch it. it seems to try to take the picture but its unable to save it for some reason ?
