[Q] search fields in applications do not work properly - Nook Touch General

Hi,
I am having problems with various applications, such as Dolphin mini browser or SlideMe makret with the address/search field. I am not able to enter any text - seems that default Nook search field is opened instead which doesn't interact properly with the application. As the result I am not able to enter any URL.
I think this might be the same issue as with market search (do not have market, cannot say for sure). Is there a way how to fix it for all apps?

[Q] Universal search app?

Coming from a blackberry, i have universal search that lets me type and find content on blackberry messenger, emails, facebook, contacts and even some third party apps.
While i know that android itself has some of these, there are third party apps that extend this feature. Do you use one of these apps? Which one?
I wish there was a way to use universal search (built into Android,) to search Google Maps, like I could on WebOS. I find that if I am hitting the search button, over half the time I am looking for a phone number from the yellowpages, (maps.)
I very much miss being able to start typing a contacts name at the home screen and having it pop up. Currently I have the far right launcher (ADW) set to Contact Search, but it's still to presses to get started. If anyone finds something that works more seamlessly, please let us know.
Well the built-in search feature of Android does search contacts... Depending on what ROM you're running, how your contacts are sync'd can effect if they appear in results. I can tell you that on CM7 nightly 21, with TouchDown and Facebook sync, that my contacts all appear when I just hit the search key and start typing. I just wish that one of the options was to start a search in maps.
Hit the search capacitive button at the bottom and start typing. If they don't show up, go into settings and make sure iit searches for contacts too.

google hotseat

i dont know what i did but when i open my browser (any and all browser), google search page load up. I install new and different browser and google search page load up on it too. On the web address it say "google.com/m?client=ms-{CUD}&source=android-home-hotseat". Any suggestion to get rid of this?
Go into settings and change your homepage. Set it to whatever you would like, www.yahoo.com or facebook or whichever.

Is this an isolated occurrence ? am i the only one having this issue?

[Q] Note 3 S-Planner Issue

Hi, I have the following problem with S-Planner application and do not seem to find a way to fix it - I mainly use S-Planner as an Outlook Calendar and I sync it with MS Exchange, my issue is that I have MS Lync meetings scheduled in it. When I open one of these Lync meetings invites into S-Planner I have a direct URL (link) which directs me directly to the Lync Meeting and automatically opens the Lync app. The issue here is that when I press that link it automatically opens via the stock Samsung browser and does not give me an option to choose what browser to use to open it. The Lync Meeting invite in S-Planner does not work with the Samsung Stock Browser as it does not seem to recognize that Lync is installed on the phone, so nothing ever happens. On the other hand it works perfectly with Firefox and Dolphin browsers, but as I said I do not have an option to make one of them the default browser to open URLs in S-Planner tasks. I checked the Stock Samsung Browser in application manager and no defaults what so ever are set for it, the "defaults" button is also greyed out. I also tried making Firefox the default browser for the phone following many articles, but even though it was set as the default browser, opening a URL from within S-Planner kept on opening with the Samsung Stock browser. Any way around this please, can anything be done to change that ?
Does anyone have an answer to that ? Even if it is not possible, please do let me know.
you have the option in the first time the chice to choose the default browser you can reinstall all the browser app and chose what u need in the first start will give u the choxe to choose ur default browser or go to application to default application and chose what u want

Thank you for your reply but as I mentioned there aren't any defaults set neither on S-Planner nor on the Samsung Stock Browser, I checked both in the application manager and they have both the "No Defaults Set" note on them, the "Clear Defaults" button is greyed out (inactive) on both of them, despite that when I open a URL (web link) from within S-Planner it does not ask me which web browser to use to open it, but goes straight to the Samsung Stock Web Browser despite the fact that it has no defaults set.

Samsung Browser Search Results

Hi everyone. I'm having this weird problem and I hope to get some help with it. I use the stock Samsung Browser with Google as my default search engine. Everytime I search for something in the address bar, it shows results with India in the suggestions. For example, I will search "Huawei Watch" and the search results will recommend "Huawei Watch India". It will also recommend the Indian version of webpages like google.co.in. I was recently in India on vacation but some setting must have stuck. I tried the Yahoo and Bing search engine options and won't get the same results. This only appears for Google search engine. I have cleared history, cached, and the reset the app but it is still happening. I have cleared my Google account search history but it still happens. I use Chrome browser and it does not happen. Does anyone know why this is occuring? I really appreciate the help.

Set HTML viewer as default text app. How do I change it?

I can't seem to find HTML viewer in the apps settings. I accidentally set it using a file manger app. I cleared the defaults on that and it still opens HTML viewer for text files.
Try going to settings/app, 3 dot menu, show system app, maybe Samsung Internet? Click on it and go down to set as default? If this is set, it will say so and you can clear it. If not this, it should be one of the browsers you have installed, Chrome maybe.
