see screenshots attached. I have never seen this and have no idea how it happened... ideas?

I thi think is better to look at it directly instead of using a mirror...you will sleep better if you do so.

Yes I know they are reversed. I had to take a picture using iPhoto on my laptop b/c nothing on the phone works.
I booted it up and it is in a weird language and nothing is working, so i had to use my laptop camera to take a picture.

I woke up one morning, and my keyboard and the other buttons had stopped working, and som buttons got some new (wrong) functions.
And when im in the file explorer menu, i can't click on anything, and that also happens in the messages menu.
Someone know what the problem might be? Tried to to a hard reset, and the problems are still there.
(sorry for my bad(?) english)

Dave, how many images do you have in that folder? the only thing I can think of that might cause all those symptoms is having an over-stuffed folder maybe.
Nah, stock images folder. It had worked after last hard reset, just noticed the problem the other day. Must be something I installed though it is pretty close to stock. I'm resisting doing a hard reset just for this problem, but I may give in if there are no solutions. Thanks for thought.

Sorry... but my keyboard stopped working again -.-
ive tried click the swype logo and tried rebooting but nothing seems to allow the tracing cababilities
Anyone Know Why? Would a reinstall work?
Ive got version 1.56.30.7625.t100 of Swype
Thanks as always in advance
i have the same issue. it said its because this version of swpe is not on the device it was for that it is operating on limited capabilities. also to note the swype installer has a limit on the amount of times you can download swype before it cuts you off.

Hi all
Apologies if this has already been asked but I couldn't find anything. I just got my G2 last week and have discovered today that the Voicemate app is missing? Or at least I can't find it...
Any ideas? It's a UK model on EE network.
Another question if I may, the quick access menu that you get to by holding your finger on the home key then sliding up (where voicemate is supposed to be) Is there anyway of changing which apps are accessible here.
Thanks a lot, any help appreciated.
Is there nobody with the same issue? Getting worried here...

Don't think that Voice Mate should be on that menu on D802? Don't you find it if you search for apps in the phone either? Note the space in the name if you search...
Don't have time to try right now, but I think this app is what you are looking for to change the menu: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dynamicg.homebuttonlauncher

It was more a curiosity thing, I can't believe that I'm the only one with this missing so wanted to see if there were others... Who knows what else is missing... :laugh:
I suppose I can live without it until such time as I root.
Thanks all

I bought a 16GB D-802 in Dubai and this too didn't have the voice mate app when I was on stock ROM.

I do have it, I have the international version.
Haven't used it a single time lol..
Hi, Can't seem to find an answer on this, when I go to setting in magazine ux, say as an example on the news widget, I click the three dots to customize the widget, it just spins and spins, no options to select which news I would like to add. Anyone else have this problem? It happens with all widgets, news, sports etc.
thanks

I haven't experienced that issue. Mine works fine. As crazy at it seems, have you tried "Restarting" your tablet? It's worth a try.

Yup, multiple times. I can scroll threw the news stories straight from the widget, but soon as I click the three dots, a white side window opens, but nothing populates, it just spins. I tried it on a second device at work and it was the same thing.

it might be good to keep a record of who is having the issue and if they rooted or not. Might be a connection. I am rooted with this issue..

Same problem here. New out of the box, no root. I've tried factory reset, deleting all widgets and re-adding them, restarting flipboard, etc. This drives me nuts!
Ok so the changing language thing works and the options now display; in spanish, or whatever language I select other than english! It works in ever language but english! Why is this and any ideas? thanks

it seems that we're going to have to wait for a fix from samsung, hopefully they are aware of the issue
I've been talking to Flipboard support to see if there is anything they can do. I'll post if I find anything new. So far they have just told me to reset everything, etc.
Frustrating!
I also have the same problem straight out of the box. So I sent it back and this is the third device I have received with the same problem. I contacted Samsung and they said there is nothing they could do need to send it back for repair and it would take two weeks. I'm thinking it's a software issue maybe with flipboard app, I got a flipboard error at some point. Hope to see fixed with patch or update. Don't want to send a brand new tablet back for repair with a two week turnaround.
Also on another note when I called Samsung for an issue with the back just below the camera there was a hump they told me that the tablet I had purchase from Best Buy was not a valid SN and that the tablet had no warranty. After that I mad it a point to verify my SN with Samsung to make sure I was covered by the 1 year warranty.
Also change language to Spanish and it works but not in English
