hi all
i am having a bit of a trouble figuring out the live tiles and the background tasks function in mango. i have an at&t branded samsung focus running mango here in india.
i would really appreciate if someone could tell me as to how the live tiles function in mango is supposed to function? for eg. the 'now' app from samsung has a tile and an option which i believe would make it display current weather or news or something which i choose on the tile itself without actually going into the app. is it true?i only ask this because right now it shows nothing on the live tile which means that the tile is actually not 'live' afterall.
also, i just downloaded IM+ which is a great messenger app and i primarily use to chat on gtalk. in the settings menu i have flipped on the button which says 'run under lockscreen'. is this any different from any application running in background because as soon as i close the app, i go offline on gtalk which really defeats the whole instant messaging scenario. the same thing goes for whatsapp.i ask this only because what is the point of having an IM app when you always appear offline to your friends until you start the app???!!
I have the similar problem. The Samsung"now" live tile won't update.
Other live tiles work fine.

Yeah, you probably won't be able to use that method anymore. I'm pretty sure you can only use the Maps app itself now. If you tap the icon on the right-hand side of the search bar, that's navigation. I'm just guessing here, but there's probably an intent for it, so maybe somebody has written a little app using the old navigation icon that will launch Maps with that intent? Of course, you can also easily get to navigation by voice command. That may or may not be an option for you. I've been trying to use voice a little more, because it actually works really well.
Navigation blue icon missing
hi,
so this is normal behaivour of 4.4
this changes is very bad for me, classic navigation icon shoulb be. Voice method will be alternate new feature.
ı Hope this blue navigation icon is came .
thanks...
Ah, I think I just found something that's almost like the old navigation icon.
Tap and hold in any unused space of the screen. Pick Widgets, then add the widget called "Directions". It makes you enter something for the source and destination, but you can just use a single space for each, then tap Save. The new widget should do basically what the blue arrow used to do.
Navigation blue icon missing
yes, google directions are similar to navigation icon.
I test it it works well.
Thanks
Hi guys, seems like the latest update has changed the GPS quick tile to Location. Is there anyway to bring back the GPS tile? I want a button which specifically just toggles the GPS.
Nope, this is not possible
This is Android update
I am fully stock on 7.0. I used to use the broadcast tile and quick settings or power toggles to add it. I realize it's gone but with the new api with tiles built in has anyone released anything to the play store yet i missed? i would gladly pay for it. I miss that feature as i use the clock app at night with the screen saver option and showing the soft keys is brutal and just asking for burn in. why in the hell doesnt google minimize them on the app. totally dumb
As discussed here https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8-pro/help/push-notifications-to-apps-delayed-t4088925 I've issues with background apps. I've no problem with notifications but with location.
I used to use the RunKeeper widget to start it but with the 8 pro this no longer works. When I open RunKeeper it takes a while to get location and then I can start it. I suspect that the missing background location information is the cause of the unresponsive widget. I've disabled all optimizations for RunKeeper I was able to find without success.
Any suggestion how to fix this?
