It's weird, I haven't knowingly changed anything either. Just started doing this.

The Verizon rep fixed it it was something called integrated messaging on the account that had to be removed it's apparently a known bug that they're working on

to theprfct10..do you know what the verizon tech did to integrated messaging to fix the bs headache ?

this is known bug that they're working on. just need to wait for update

I don't know of a permanent solution, but if you go into setting and reset network it gets rid of it til the next system update.

[Q] Is this native video calling (settings)

I was playing around with ADW and I was adding a custom shortcut.
I went to ADW.Activities and was looking around for something fun to put on the home screen when I came accross a videocall.videocall intent under call settings
I will include screenshots for those who want to see it.
Is this a setup of sorts for native videocalling on the phone? Is this sprint only? Do other people have this on there phones?
The shortcut opens to a window with options for setting up how the phone handles video calls but I dont see anything in the phone anywhere about making a video call.
Any ideas.

P.S.
anyone who wants to see this on their phone should add a custom activity to their adw home screen and goto callSettings-->video call(videocall.videocall)
Weird, comes up on my phone too. Anybody have any info?

Someone should look this up on the Evo and see if it's either a Sprint thing or a Samsung thing.
It's an Android thing.

Actually just tested and it works, managed to make a call by carrying out the process a few quick times.
Not sure what, other than making calls this could do though.

Depending on the device, it allows FULL access to the phone.
I can not open the previous reply link but here is the video where some guy with a bit of effort completely disables the lockscreen code http://shkspr.mobi/blog/2013/03/new-bypass-samsung-lockscreen-total-control/

Samsung Link Destroying my battery

Since I opened and set-up Samsung Link, its always been the 1st of second reason of battery drain. I'm not sure why. I dont even use it. I know freezing it would be the simplest solution, but i like to know why it does that and not just skip to the easiest solution.
Anybody have this issue?

I use Link regularly and don't have this problem. The only thing I can think of looking through the settings is auto upload. I have it turned off. Might be possible it is turned on, on your device. If not then I am not sure either.

Rogers S5 Lollipop lock screen block text

I updated to 5.0 a while back when Rogers rereleased it, and every once in a while the numbers/letters on the lockscreen keypad will turn to white blocks. The lock screen is the only place that this happens.
Anyone know what's wrong/how to fix it besides rebooting the phone?

Bump!
Anyone has a better solution than reboot?
It is appearing on T-Mobile I-9505, I-9515 and G-900F.
Do you use SwiftKey? My girlfriends Canadian GS5 is doing this as well, when I searched the internet I found a reference with regards to SwiftKey not playing 100% nice with Lollipop and causing this blockyness on the lock screen. So far there has been no fix other than reboot... She's been a couple of months now with this annoyance, but luckily it doesn't seem to affect the usability, you just have to know which numbers are which Side note: I have a Nexus 5 and use Swiftkey but don't have this problem.
This is apparently just a general lollipop issue, not really tied to anything just a glitch in android, i dont know a fix just thought id throw that out there.

Live Broadcast Problem

Is anyone else having problems doing the live broadcast? It keeps asking me to log into you tube. Then it says this feature has been already enabled and then a small youtube screen overlays the screen but I can't start broadcasting...
What's up with that?

How much time you have tried ,sometimes it may be happen only for networks and it may be devicecal problem .It will be better you should clear your question and then it will be not blury and may be helpful to give your answer.Be happy and Thanks for question.
I just started trying this afternoon but I've tried for a few hours. I've attached a picture to show the screen it stays on. It stays on that screen. I'm not able to start recording after I sign in. I hope this clears it up.
