[Q] txtx messages - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all. When typing a txt msg every time I want a space I have to double tap the space button to start a new word. Is there a way to disable this. I'm using 3x4 keyboard on predictive. I noticed if I just type hello and wait 2 seconds the line goes under the word and when I hit space once its fine. But when typing fast I have to double tap the space otherwise its just coming up as one word. I'm unable to find a setting to turn that off.. Never had this on the s3. Really annoying!!!
Please help

Dude, as simple as it is get another keyboard, or check your current keyboard settings.

I just tested it out and its nice, looks good and I have been typing very well. No problems yet on my phone. This apk is from AndroidPolice I think, where they also mention it FC's on tablets.
Is haptic feedback working, not working on mine.
Edit: Go to advanced Settings and change vibration duration setting to a value you want.
It will be set to -1 by default.

works well but... double tapping the caps key force closes every single time.
Long press sets caps lock, double tap crashes it.
This should be posted in themes & apps. New version without caps issue here.
Smart Keyboard PRO is my default keyboard, how does this compare?
Cheers
Doesn't automatically capatilize the letter "I".

Haptic feedback works after you adjust the duration in settings. It can't last -1ms so it has to be changed.

Keyboard and typing problem

I was having a problem with my tablet that I thought a update might sort so I rooted it and tried a few different roms but am still getting the same problem when am typing something. You know when you make a mistake and you can touch the area you want to fix by either deleting or changing a letter well when i do that the the line wont stay on that spot it just shoots of somewhere else every time
I have the same problem!!!!!

Indeed, sometimes becomes useless...pity.

I am sick of this screenshot button on screen!!!!!

Is there any way to get rid of this option????it accidently get pressed then i have to waste 10 seconds.its frustrating......i am on stock rom 4.0.3
Slow down !
This is Samsung. You can customize the button or remove it.
Go to Display in your settings. Under "quick launch" you will find a few cool options. Including disable. That will remove it entirely.

Yes, this is probably my favorite update in 4.0.4. I actually replaced the screen shot button with an app drawer one.
Where is this option?
It`s in settings/ display / quick launch , but only in 4.04

just flash a custom rom. And be done with it

yes buddy its convenient but when pressed accidently it is irritating
Just rename in system/app the P5_ScreenCapture.apk (Mount R/W) . That will leave the icon, but accidently taking pictures will be something of the past.
As far as I know in Touchwizz there isn't yet any solution for the system bar.

Anyone else's lock screen do this?

So I have preview messages in lock screen and status bar checked on. Why is it that when I click on the message in my lock screen this blank box appears that I can't do anything with? Never had so many questions about a phone considering I get so many a year. I've attached a picture for reference.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
It's a built in function. For instance, once you click on the text, you swipe in the box below and your phone goes right to the text.

From what I've been able to tell, the swipe on that lock screen is actually a widget. The box that sometimes appears is the area where the swipe trail can be triggered.
Swipe down on the message notification, then you can click on the text message notification on the lockscreen.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
that helps, although I dont see the point in bringing the box up. Not like it really matters where you swipe as it will unlock.

Its no unlocking the phone by swiping the box down. Its "enabling" the lockscreen text messaging widget that google implemented in 4.2, because by default samsung overrode the aosp lockscreen with its swip from anywhere.

That is correct, there is no way.
I guess it's been awhile since I used my s3 and it's just something I will get used to.
very simple to get rid of that box...... but it requires using a different messaging app that is the only way right now until roms are built

How to get rid of lock-screen screen when you miss a call or get a text??

OK so I hope I can describe this well enough so that you know what I' talking about. Whenever I get a text message or miss a call and my phone is locked and screen off, and then I come back and wake my phone, it ALWAYS goes to this default screen that shows who the text/missed call is from (and for texts, it will actually show some of the text message). How do I change this, or is there not a way to change it?? Thanks to anyone that can help!

Sure. I don't know about the calls, but the texts I can help. Open up the default messenger. Hit the menu and touch settings. In there you'll see some goodies. One of them will address your text concern.
