Hey guys,
I was wondering if any of you also have this "bug": I kind of get the feeling this happens once in a while, that when I press on the most bottom recent app, or any other recent app in this matter, that it starts a different recent app which is not the one I klicken.
Example: I touched peel smart remote and Facebook comes up?
Infos:
I know about the bug when Samsungs are plugged in, and no it wasn't plugged in
I'm rooted (exploit)
Had reboots
Came from oldest stock ics Rom to this jb Rom via odin
This is not a ultra consistent problem, but it is annoying when it happens =p just wanted to see if there is a common solution or if anyone else is experiencing this?
Greetings sysl0rd

I've had the same thing happen. I thought it was just me clicking on the wrong app initially....until I read this post. Hopefully Samsung know about all these weird bugs and complaints, and are doing something about it.

I've just been messing around with the recent apps tab trying to replicate the problem. It seems that if I hit the recent tab icon and then choose an app too soon after it pops up, it will occasionally open a completely different app to the one I chose. If I leave it for a couple of seconds it always opens the right one.
Not a big deal.....but still shouldn't happen.

Is this just me? Every time i reply to a post, I get a force close. This has happened on almost every firmware I've tried.
Just me?
Same here, it crashes everytime, do not know, but I think this is not a firmware thing, but a xda app thing....
are you guys on Froyo or 2.1 ?
i'm using it just fine, no errors, i use it very often to check my PMs and post back on the go
I had the same a few days ago.however somehow the problem got solved and now I don't get these FC's anymore when posting a message...

Mine is a clean install and the latest version. Guess its just a bit crap then... much like the official UK ebay app as well then.
Oh to top it off my phone decided it had enough and went to sleep again.

Mine crashes too (fresh install)
mine was upgraded from the older verison
Posted here earlier that my problems were gone, but I just had another FC after posting elsewhere...
Also, when trying to edit a previous message I seem unable to type anything; the keyboard appears on my screen, but touching it gives a feedback that is the same as touching in a textbox (I can move cursor and select text etc.instead of typing with the virtual keyboard that is displayed).

Ok so for example, when I entered twitter, it didn't find the twitter app. Only till I entered "tweet". And it almost always shows the app Lookout security & Antivirus, as like the 5th search result. And some other apps, like Nimbuzz, Quickoffice Pro will almost always show up. This happened since I flashed my phone back to the T-Mobile (I had debranded) firmware and then upgraded to 2.3.5.
Maybe covered in here too:

Not sure if this is the same issue and apologies if I've missed another thread on this. I lost both books and movies from market a few days ago. Also searches only show a very small selection of apps but says there's thousands available. Wonder if anyone else has noticed this?

Yeah I have that too

I think you guys accidentally set the app filtering to high. Remove the filter. Happened to me before.
Just uncheck all then apply and recheck all and apply.

Depends on the CSC code.
Everybody got the same following bug?
If some app page in market loads through 3G and you switching to WiFi while loading - it won't load until force restart market app.
I have got the same thing.. I cannot find anything properly. Its like the search engine is fubar.
When I search "stargate ", it says there are 107 results, yet only about 10 are in the list. I'm finding this problem with every search I do, yet my filter is set to show all apps. Maybe if someone who has cm7/miui could see it it happens to them, we could then deduce whether it is Samsung firmware to blame, or just an android market issue.
There is also another issue where in sometimes when u search an app with full name the market will keep on loading with the grey screen and does not go past it. However if part of the name is searched the results come instantly.

We can rule this out if no one is having as now I feel its because of network issue from my end.
Latest market update seems to have fixed most of the issues I posted earlier. Hopefully this version will be more stable.

Hi guys, I've been searching the Web for a while now for this problem and I hope I'm not the only one with it. But since yesterday when I'm on gallery the preview at the bottom of the screen doesn't disappear! If you play a video the play buttons don't go anywhere either. Is there anyone else with this issue?

Yep, same here. I was about to make a thread for it, but found yours. The preview at the bottom, and toolbar at the top NEVER disappear, no matter what I've tried. Also, when making photo selections, a woman's voice tells me that the "check box is checked" I can't find that setting anywhere either. Super annoying.
What the deuce?
Haha even restarts don't help =/ and yeah the woman is hilarious but creepy! I would love to ask Samsung but would have no idea where to start!

I was having this exact same problem and finally figured out what was causing it, at least for me. I installed NoLED and turned it on under accessibility. I didn't realize the connection at the time but then I noticed that the top and bottom overlays in the gallery wouldn't go away. I also got the freaky voice, even when opening websites. Somehow I correlated the issue as to having started after I installed NoLED. After I uninstalled it my gallery sent back to normal. It was either an issue with the app or having given it access under accessibility. Hope this helps.

Gallery works fine on my S4. I have several 100 pictures on it in lots of different folders, and it works great for all of them. Video playback is fine too, FWIW.

Well I've had lightflow installed since day one... So I didn't even uninstall it, just turned it off in accessibility. Yup, gallery is fine now. Odd glitch.

it's not just lightflow, it's for every app that you activate in the accessibility menu

That is pretty weird. Should of known it was light flow! Is there any way to report this to Samsung? At least we have found the fix. Thank you guys a lot!

When I first got the phone, I could make the bars disappear on the gallery app by just tapping and now I can't make them go away for the life of me. Any help? Thanks
Here is an example below

For me, just not touching the screen for a couple of seconds makes them disappear.

Maybe try updating the firmware? Maybe it's a bug they fixed.
I'm running the XXUAMDM version and i think that this is the latest firmware which is available.
Maybe i will try to flash a stock rom from the development section.

Well I'm using XXUAMDN, which I'd expect is newer going alphabetically.
My galaxy s4 is not able no find a newer version than my current one. I'm from germany so maybe I'll have to wait

Mine couldn't either, even though it was on XXUAMDC. I assume it's because it gets the update through your network provider, and you'll only get the newest one they'd let you get, especially if it's locked to their network like mine was.
I probably found out what was causing that bug. My gallery is working fine again.
Please test the following:
Enable all sounds on your galaxy s4 and get into the Gallery.
now select an folder with your pictures and long press on a picture. in my case the phone had read out loud that i've selected a picture.
Then i removed an app called Notify-Me and some other apps which could cause the problem and now the gallery works again :good:
I'm sorry for my english but I hope you can understand it.

There I found my solution.
Hope it works for you !
Actually my gallery was also doing talkback at some point. I had just frozen a bunch of bloat apps, so I thought that was the thing causing it.. So I unfroze them again..

My phone is a completely stock US version and I have the gallery problem. You can never view a picture fullscreen no matter what you do.
Do you have an app installed which is enabled in accessibility? Disable it and try again in landscape mode
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Wow, it's Lightflow that's causing it! Well, maybe I should say Samsung's gallery sucks and can't coexist with lightflow. I've been using an app from the market called Gallery ICS which works fine with lightflow enabled. So odd. I don't get what would cause this.
What is lightflow?

Yeah pretty annoying that no notification app works with the stock gallery. I hope this will be fixed soon :banghead:

Thanks for the info! I've just disabled the Tasker accessibility service and the problem went away. Looks like the bug occurs when you have at least one active accessibility service.

Iv had the intelliring app installed for a while, great app with some cool features but had one major issue.
Works fine for the ringer but when I choose to include my notifications to be controlled by the app it says I need to turn on something in accessibility, which I do but then using the stock browser I get talk back even though it's talk back is off and everything is unchecked. This issue doesn't happen in chrome though.
Another issue Iv noticed is auto rotate does not work properly in the video player but I can live with that.
I think the stock browser is great and it seems faster than chrome while using less ram too. Can't find another app that does what intelliring does, also Iv emailed the devs a couple of times but no response after two weeks.
I know it's not a major issue but coming from ios where things just worked it would be nice for it to just work. Can anyone help?

You'll have to wait for an official fix. There are several threads where people have problems with the talkback issue. Every app which is enabled in the accessability settings causes that. The new MEA firmware fixes the issue so you'll have to wait or flash the firmware with odin. You can get it from sammobile. :thumbup:

Thanks :good:, have you experienced any fixes with the new update yet?
Still not rooted yet, cant find any reason to root, this device is so damn customisable from every angle. (long time ios user)
Yeah the talkback issue gets fixes. Also you can move apps to your sd card. My camera doesnt lag anymore. It is a good update :thumbup: :thumbup:
You do not have to be rooted.
Turn off your phone and put it into the download mode. Connect it to a usb port and flash the firmware with odin as pda and check if the checkboxes auto restart and f.reset time are checked. But only those two checkboxes.
If you want to be really sure go to the development section and follow the instructions from djembey.

Or you could wait till the update reaches your phone amd don't risk anything
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Thanks again. But my knowledge is pretty basic, I don't even know/ever heard of download mode. Getting root seems way more complex than jail breaking so for that reason I'll hold back and besides I really enjoy having 60+% battery left after a full days use.
Let's hope this new update is soon
