As far as I can see there isn't a way to be able to change those shortcuts. I saw a thread about this a while ago, and it seemed that they didn't find a solution either.

I found that if you disable "PageBuddyNotiSvc 1.0" that they are gone completely. This is what I wanted though.

Same issue and not showing music player or a video player.
I think samsung need to think about this bug and solve it ASAP.

Its not a bug, it just shows your most frequently used apps.

My 2 cents,
After updating TuneIN Radio app, it was gone, and I find it handy to have it there. Since its based with the frequency of its utilization, what I did was to open and close the app repeatedly, untill it showed there Simple and efficient hehehe :laugh:

Market search engine behaving very strange

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?

Can't find any app anymore, tried Facebook..nope, go launcher..nope..go SMS..nope. Wtf its going on?

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.

Bars on Gallery App won't disappear

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

Anyone?
For me, just not touching the screen for a couple of seconds makes them disappear.
I've got the same problem

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.

How can I change my music?

I done a couple of Google searches and can't find anything to really help me. I don't know if this has been asked before or not? But I'm coming from an iPhone where when I had my phone locked I could double click the home button and change the song. Is there anyway I can do that with the s4? And also I ran the iOS 7 beta before I got this phone and they had an option where I could swipe up and the control center would pop-up and it'll have a bunch of random things and I could change the song. I've seen something like that for android but only thing missing was to change the music. I hate unlocking my phone and going back to the app just to change the song and I don't want to use s-voice to change it.

That, plus it should or can be enabled in the notifications pulldown. I'm in the same boat, just sold my I5 for a galaxy s4. New to Android.. love it. The fact that the whole market is basically what cydia was is awesome, but it's hard to find some of the features I was used to with activator and sbsettings.. In nX (nottach xposed) or 3minit Framework, the options to longpress volume toggle track skipping is available.. but I can't seem to get it to work for my I337. It is there though, most options are compatible if you're ATT as well. Worth a try.
I don't have any music on my phone I just use the unlimited Pandora which I used on a jail broken iPhone will it be able to control Pandora? I just hate having a widget on the lock screen besides the date and time. I know I'm difficult. Well I found this app on the play store “widgetlocker lock screen” but its for 2.99 I'll have to find a free alternative for the time being.

You can change songs using the notification bar. Even if the notification bar is hidden you can make it appear by doing a swipe down gesture from the top of the screen.

I guess since I'm using the older version of Pandora its not letting me swipe down to show controls.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
I have full access to Pandora from my lockscreen. Take off any pattern/pin/face unlock you have on your lockscreen and the Pandora controls should show there.
Simple fix uninstall ur hacked/ warez version of Pandora and install the legal version from the any store and it will work fine and have all the options

Try draging down with the pandora player in the notification panel.

I'm not going to give Pandora anymore of my money. When I was on my iPhone they had me upgrade to pandora one for $3.99/month which i did for a year and it was like I could “listen to music unlimited“ well once I skipped 6 songs it said you reached your limit you can't skip anymore songs for an hour after I paid money for it! Not doing that ever again.

STOCK Music App issue

I dont know if this has already been posted (im sure it has and mods can delete this if need be) but, the stock music app is a battery and RAM drainer and leaker, so much to the point where it cripples the phone into an unusable state. In order to fix this problem, i would recommend switching to Play Music, as it still has SD Card rights and doesnt generate this horrible problem. (This is what i am now doing) just wanted to inform anyone who didnt know/had the same problem i did!

Good to know that's it's definitely an issue in the application since we have Exynos version and you have Snapdragon.

Yeah, i was using the app for the first time yesterday during class, and it kept cutting out for no reason. I figured out the solution on the ride home. Play music seems to be working fine though! I dont know if Samsung can update it via samsung apps or play store or if it needs to be via OTA update, but they need to fix it.

MM update. Default apps issue.

Hi guys
Just installed the MM update for my Note 4. Didn't notice any difference at first, then discovered that Allcast no longer streams to my Xbox DLNA, and also now in the gallery whenever you click on a video it gives you the choice of apps to open it with ONCE then automatically sets that as the default, so if I want to open a video in a different player I now have to go into app manager and clear the defaults. Then I can open with the app I want. But that gets set as default too so it never ends.
This is really REALLY annoying.
Please does anyone know of a fix around this?
Many thanks.

Indeed a very annoying update all around!
No fix, but an app called 'Better open with'.

+1 for this, been using it for years: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.betteropenwith
Basically you set it as the default app for opening a particular file type or link, and then within this app you can choose which other apps are allowed to open said files or links. You can also have a countdown to open with a default choice, giving you a few seconds to choose an alternative.
Been meaning to ask this since I upgraded to MM, always thought that this was a stupid MM feature, but now I see this is a bug right?
Thanks to that app anyway, don't like unnecessary apps, but still better than annoyance caused by waste of time.
It's not a bug, it's a further stupidity from Samsung. You can find this so called feature nobody wants on other devices as well (Note 5 and S7).
Thanks guys. Will try that app out.
This is without doubt the worst software update yet, so much to complain about!
