[Q]Why is Google Now Weather card linking to useless page - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

when i press the weather card in google now i get this search result. I used to get a page with the weather of the area i am in with a slider that i can use to show hourly forecasts. This happened on both my nexus 4 and 7. i have no idea why since i dont think i change any settings, both gps and location services are on.
Edit: just found out that google now doesnt work right when using desktop mode. i prefer the desktop mode for chrome though, i have a scripted that always request desktop. So is it possible for me to use the aosp browser for google now and not have it link to chrome? google search doesnt give me an option to pick what browser to use like other apps do. The only way i can use something else is to uninstall chrome.

Google's home page barcode.

I know this is really off topic but......... I have been trying to scn the bar code on googles home page to see what is pulls up. I have tried with shop savvy on the screen with no luck. I dont have a printer and I was wondering if anyone could print there homepage and scan it with different apps. Then report back your findings?
Unsurprisingly, it just says "Google" in plain text.
Try the "barcode scanner" app. You don't even need to print it.
Wow thats lame, I was hoping it would pull up google chuck norris jokes or something funny.
Some one should hack the link so when you click on the barcode it directs you to cyanogenmod.com

Had to Google for a pic as I had no idea what you were on about
yea, dats wut i m asking....hahah....thks so much!
Good, the standard contacts app has it... see the grey thing on the right? Slide it up and down!
Another option is to use the gesture search app. Have a shortcut on your screen to it, activate it and type the name of the contact you're trying to find. I find it quicker to access contacts in many instances.

Note 3 not showing up on Google Play Web interface

I know its not strictly a Note 3 issue but was hoping someone might know why:
My device doesn't show up as an option in the Play Store. So I cant browse for an app and push the app to the phone.
I can browse the app store and pull apps down FROM the phone... but I would like to be able to do it the other way like I can for my other Android devices..
I'm running a Stock ROM and am not rooted or Knox triggered.
Do you mean like this?

Mine picked it up straight away.
Can you see the device in settings? (Gear icon --> Settings). Could be that "Show in Menu" isn't checked.

[Issue - Oreo] Google Maps keeps entering Picture in Picture mode

Hi, I can't understand why when I'm using maps navigator in full screen mode, randomly, it just shifts to Picture in Picture mode. I do not press home button.
Don't know if it a bug or if it happens to someone else. I think it is pretty annoying.

Something I can do (except totally disable pip)?
:good:
Go to settings- apps- (upper right) special access- pictures in picture. Find maps in the list and turn off allow. YouTube have a switch built into the app itself. GL

Your device is probably looking for a launcher App, which will organize your Apps for browsing.
Definition: A launcher is to your Android phone as a desktop is to your computer—launchers provide the background interface on your phone and help you organize everything that you need quick and easy access to.
So Nova Launcher is supposed to be the leader, grab this app it will display your installed apps nicely: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher
