Weird "onreceive()" popup - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

I just got a replacement device from Verizon and I'm getting a weird popup that says "onreceive()" seemingly whenever I uninstall or disable an app. My old phone did not do this. Does anyone have any idea what this is? I googled it and all that popped was a bunch of coding sites and something about broadcasting.

my Note 5 has been doing it to me running Nougat. Glad I found someone else with the issue. It does it after i Install anything from the playstore/galaxy apps store

Got a replacement s9 plus from Verizon as well a few days ago and I too have this ???

There is another user on a Reddit forum who had same issue as I did with the onreceive popup at first installation and they have a Motorola. So I'm thinking it's a global issue.

Sounds like another app or something causing it perhaps. I don't see this on my Telus S9+
Not discounting the issue at all, but it's definitely not a universal one

Missing App In Market After MR2?

Is anyone having trouble finding some apps in the market after upgrading to MR2? I was trying to get to AlphaMixr back on but am unable to see it in the market after upgrading. I am still able to find it when searching on my wife's myTouch though.
Did something on our phones change after the update that could cause this?
Twidroid Pro isn't showing up for me anymore. This is pretty disheartening, as I purchased that application, and now can't get the updates for it.
A google search on the matter reveals we're not alone. I guess it has to do with Google and their copy protection scheme not playing well with the MR2 that dropped last week. Furthermore, it looks like it happened during the last upgrade as well.
Ahh well I guess it's just a matter of time before the issue is fixed then. Thanks!

[Q] Stock Email text wrapping issue

Hi all. I have the sg2 and I love it. Running Calkunlins E4GT v2.8.1 Rom and it flies. Great battery really nothing to complain about until you have to read an email. I use exchange server for business and rely heavily on my phone for emails. I have called Samsung, chatted with Samsung and emailed with Samsung about this issue and none seams to know what I am talking about or how to resolve the issue. I came from the HTC Evo and this was not an issue. I have tried several different ROMS and I have checked with other people who have the same phone and we all have the same problem. Frankly I am surprised there isn't a fix or more people complaining about this. The issue is the text does not wrap in emails and a word will be broken and split between 2 lines. This makes it very annoying to read emails on my phone and I read a lot of emails. I have attached a screenshot of an example. If anyone know how to resolve this issue I would love to know. I have tried looking in all the settings for a way to format it but I cannot seem to find anything. When I called Samsung they basically told me they didn't have a solution and they were sorry. When I chatted with them they told me to call, and when I repeatedly emailed them about the issue even after I told them in an email that when I called they had no answer they continuously told me to call. They had no interest in attempting to figure out why this is happening. thanks for your time.

Notifications woes

So after being a long time apple user and long time iTunes hater ... I managed to sell my iphone 4 and bought a samsung galaxy S4, did the same for my other half...
Keep in mind, this is a brand new, no-root, default phone.
The issue basically is notifications, for whatsapp ( at the moment since I haven't set up anything else that requires push, besides gmail). The issue is once I turned the screen off, either manually or by itself. whatsapp notifications randomly stop arriving until I turned on the screen, completely close the app and open it again, the same goes for 2 other devices ( 3 in total), this happens with wifi or mobile data
Device #1. new s4,
Device #2 new s4
Device #3 Samsung galaxy young running 4.1.2 JB.
Now, device #3 belongs to a friend of mine who told of these issues a couple of months ago, however I did pay attention as I just figured it was network connection or wifi or whatever be it.
I've googled the hell out of this and it is apparently an android issue:
it's not telco related in my case, because i had NO ISSUES on my iphone 4 nor my best half's 4s.
Anyway, hopefully someone here has been through something similar and been able to fix it? I've searched the forums and there's apparently a widespread issue, but not fix as of 4.2.2?
New to the forum, I originally posted this here
neowin.net/forum/topic/1163306-android-notifications-woes-with-whatsapp/[/url]
Which eventually led me to post here so.
Edit: just figured this is posted in verizon gs4... is there a forum for international unlocked 9500? would a mod be so kind to move it without deleting this?

[Q] Crazy thing happening

Hi Everyone
I am not new to the forums, i have been reading it for a long time but decided to join today because i don't know if anyone has ever experienced something like the problem i am having.
Whatever i type in my phone whether it is a text message, a whatsapp message or a google search appears in a friend's phone 5000 miles away
Here is a little bit of a history. This friend logged in to his facebook etc from my phone when his phone got stolen in Brazil back in January. He then got a new Samsung Galaxy s3(the problem didn't occur with that new phone) then he switched to an S4 1 month ago. After he switched to s4 he says everything i type shows up on his phone. He lives in Tirkey i am in USA. Somehow these two phones are connected but i don't know how.
Has anyone ever heard a problem like this?

Never heard of it.
Does he format the S3 ? Try to remove his gmail and it should be fine.

He is my best friend and i have known him for 25 years. He sent me screenshots from his phone. For instance my searches come up in his search history. My text messages are in his messages folder. He sends me screenshots every night showing the searches i made that day. Or the messages i sent. He can't see the responses i get but everything i type in my phone is also in his phone.
I don't have teamviewer on my phone. But i know how it works and this is not it. One thing i could think of is Google + and Google Now. Somehow Google or Samsung connected these two phones

Google Edition Security Bug

Both myself and a colleague ordered the GPE version and they arrived today. Both of our devices, completely stock are unable to get into the Settings>Security menu's. When we launch it, it simply crashes and says "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped." Every other settings menu works fine. A quick google search turned up this article from earlier today.
http://blogs.computerworld.com/android/23270/sony-z-ultra-google-play-edition
I am sure this will be fixed soon, but I figured I would post here in case someone else came looking for answers (this is always my first stop).
Troubleshooting steps tried : Factory Resetting, Also tried launching the security settings before running all of the updates from Google Play store, still didnt work. We tried resetting a device and not signing into anything during the initial setup, no go.
This prevents us from being able to install exchange accounts, enroll in MDM, or even simply set a pin lock. Major, major issue, fingers crossed it's gets exposure asap.
We tried calling Google several times but "their system is down, try our call later" is the recording we got. Update - Finally got through to them. Opened a case and they escalated.
Also trying to uninstall any applications cause the device to reboot.
Yeah, looks like everyone with a Ultra GPE is affected by this. Not much to do with it until Google releases a fix though. You would've thought that Sony would notice a huge bug like this, but lets hope they are aware of it - which i guess they are since i assume a lot of their employees are using this model.
Try contacting Sony through their Chat Support and explain the bug to them, and give the person you're talking to the link you've posted.

when I attempted to contact Sony this morning for the very same bug with my unit they transferred me to Google. The rep I spoke with said he was unaware of the issue. Wants me to RMA the device to send me a "refurbished" one. I'm gonna wait out a fix I guess... Didn't pay full retail for a refurbished model.
