Google docs text duplication? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

When I am writing in google docs, if I press return rather than starting a new blank line, I get a new line with a copy of what I just wrote already there which I then write over as I type. This happens no matter what keyboard I use and also if I log into google docs mobile site with my tab. Has anyone else seen this? Any suggestions?

Question about instant messaging

I notice you can add instant messaging mediums under your profile and other contacts but when you goto click on them to chat with that client it doest do anything. What am I missing? Also is there a way to add pics to your facebook account thru the built in client?

Edit any one of your contacts, or edit your own profile and you will see a section to add instsnt messaging such as msn,yahoo and aim. Ive put stuff in there and the once done you will see under that contact an option to chat using aim,etc but iy doesnt do anything.

Trillian is releasing a version for Android (to round out the set with the iPhone, And BlackBerry versions). Maybe a program like that can hook into that information. We should know soon when the beta is released.

Gmail and MS office attachments

My gmail has stopped opening attachments generated by office suite. When I click the attachment it kind like tries to open it but then comes back to the email.
Anyone else having this issue?

Did you remove quickoffice app? It's a stock app that some consider bloatware but opens MS office docs (Some roms remove it or move it to /data/app)
No, I still have it. Pdf and pictures work, just the office docs.

pdf and pictures open in different apps than office docs. It's friendly a quick office issue. Find it in settings/applications and clear data

Thanks, I tried but still nothing. It flashes for a second and then goes back to the email.
One way around it I figured was opening gmail in my browser and downloading the attachment that way. Not the most efficient but gets it done.
Thanks again.

Silly question, but have you tried restarting the phone since you first saw this problem manifest itself?
Nu
Just to be sure, I just cleared the data and rebooted my phone. Still the same issue, flashes a blank screen for a second and then back to the email view.

What if you use something like "download all files" or "download crutch" to grab it from the email and save it, then open it up with your desired program? Yeah it is an extra step but it might work. Never tried it myself.
Are these apps in the market? I will give it a shot.

I have noticed this issue as well but it was only for .rtf files, I am not sure what files you are trying to open but the Gmail app does not seem to like those. I typically open up .xls/x in HTML format.

[Q] how do i back up txts to a computer, so i can print them?

Install this app and backup your sms (texts). It says it can even email you the backup. You can then view the file on your computer and do what you'd like with it. The data format is going to be a little raw though. Personally, I'd just import into Excel and clean it up, but you'll have to see if this does what you need for now.
I'm sure someone else will have a better suggestion. This was just off the top of my head.

SMS Backup version 1.1.1. This sends all your text messages to your gmail account. I've been using it for a long time and it works great. The author of this app is Christoph Studer.

Or you can use Google voice which will save a copy on your Google account automatically after setup that you can pull up anywhere and check just like gmail.

Its saves as a html. No reason you cant open that and pull the texts you want out and print them. Could change them and restore too, then you have text from someone that never happen. Hmmmm. Lmao

Google web suggestions don't work

Hi,
I got my galaxy note upgraded to ICS 4.0.3 recently.
I am facing a weird problem with my default internet browser when it comes to google website.
I access google website (www.google.com) and it automatically gets into the mobile site version as normal.
I type anything in the search like (yahoo) and it gets me the suggestions like ( Yahoo, Yahoo mail, Yahoo finance , etc.), beside every suggestion there is an arrow "used to write the web suggestion in the search area if needed" .. till this moment everything is normal.
But, when I try to press on the web suggestion to go directly to it, it does nothing. for example, when i press on (yahoo mail) the page doesn't act and still it stays in the original google site. I tried to use dolphin browser and it doesnt have the same problem.
I have resetted the default browser to its default, deleted the cache and the data... but it didn't help.
Please, let me know if anyone faced the problem and knows a fix.
Thanks alot,
Gano

you can try setting your browsert to te desktop version. This being done by going to browser, then pressing menu button, then select teh 'desktop view' check box. See what happens when you do that.
Assuming I've unerstood your issue correctly ...
you need to press on the arrow, NOT on the suggested text with which it is associated. Once you do that, the corresponding text gets automatically filled into the google search field and you can then hit the magnifying glass (or done on keyboard) to send the search query.
Thanks jeffs... I tried the desktop view but it didnt work...

[Q] How: Search full contact info on JB/N7

On my Gingerbread phone I had to install an app to enable full searching of the contact record (non-primary fields like custom fields). The app is 'Contact Search' Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gnugu.contactsearchplus
I thought that I had read that this was fixed in JB/N7...
But when searching in Gesture Search or People, it isn't searching all of the fields. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need an app to fix this?
Update: When searching via the google search bar, I clicked on menu, tablet search and verified that People was checked... under that option it said "search names of contacts" confirming what I am experiencing...
Update 2: I know that when searching contacts on my desktop PC, it does search the whole contact but I am trying to accomplish this from my N7...
Thanks!

Not really understanding the question. Are you trying to find contacts by another source other than names?
Otherwise I can type/voice the name in the Google search and it finds my contact.
