And there is an auto taskkiller built in, you don't need to mess with ending running apps android is smart and will do this for you.

It doesn't kill these tasks. It keeps them running. Its a nice feature when um using the tasks.but gets annoying when in not using it

I like dolphin browser, but can't seem to get the back button to actually go back a page, is there something I'm missing?

I have a lot of trouble with the back button in Dolphine too.. specifically if flash is involved on the pages, but not sure that has anything to do with it.
For the stock browser, type "Aboutebug" into the address bar, then check the browser settings.. There will be a new menu option called "Debug" where you can set the UAString.
HOWEVER. if the browser closes and your run it again, you have to do the "Aboutebug" again (but don't have to change the UAString). It seems to ingore the UAString unless you do the about:debug everytime you launch the app. You'll see what I mean after a few times. Just create yourself a bookmark to about:debug, so it's handy.
It seems the "tab history" add on for dolphin can be used as a work around to the back button trouble we are having, I had actually stopped using dolphin because of it, but I think ill use that add on and deal with it. I've had some issues where dolphin seems slower to load than the stock browser, but its silky smooth scrolling and extra tools (gesture controls especialy) make having to use the tab add on a worthwhile hassle.
I think ill make a gesture control for going back a page and see if that works any better

In Dolphin HD, I just tap the gestures symbol in the lower left corner and then draw a < on the screen. Works every time.

Yeah I learned this today, can't believe I didn't check what gestures were already programed in, it seems to favor opening Facebook alot tho lol

Multitasking is possible. You need to switch between apps using the third button from left on the lower bar. By using the first button ('back') or the second button ('home') the previous app doesn't close, but won't actively work either.
Stock As Desktop
To set up your stock browser to run like a Desktop Browser.
goto url
type about:debug then enter
then goto "settings"
then "Debug"
touch "UAString" and select Desktop!
I've never had a problem using the back button in dolphin.

Go into your apps, hit the menu button, choose edit, find what other three apps you want and drag. Them into the bottom bar, hit menu and selete save.
And next time questions go in q&a.
Go into the app drawer, click menu, edit. Move whichever apps you want into the dock.

Has anyone else experienced the problem with the keyboard tapping sound not working for the Samsung keyboard. I've tried everything in the keyboard settings menu.

close power saving mode or increase media sound from settings , or from accessibility
Tried that and it didn't work. Anyway got fed up with it and downloaded the keyboard from android 4.2 from the play store. So now I can do the swype functionality and no buggy tapping sound.

What did I do to my home button?

When I press and hold my home button I dont get the background app list anymore.
Now I get the dialog box asking for the default behavior and my only choices are google now and my screen off app.
I tried resetting my defaults in application manager but that didnt do it.
Anyone know how to return this back to the background app list?

Did you do any remapping of the keys with Xposed?
