I have several apps that show in the Accessibility section that are to be turned on. The problem is that the OK button is not available. It does mention something about Talkback. I had this disabled but enabled it again, but it made no difference.I'm on Lollipop but this may have been happening in KK as well.
When browsing trough one of my favourite news sites, I noticed when pressing the return button, it does the same as the recent apps button. It brings up the list of all my recently used apps.
I have tried a bunch of things like clearing the cache, getting a third party app to get a return button on the screen, even a full factory reset.
I have started suddenly getting old android type swype lockscreen with SOS BUTTON in center. I never opened SOS settings. On checking sos settings it is off. How to remove this lockscreen?
How would I remove this but I just think it's massive and I kind of like going in there and seeing a load of Chrome tabs I'd forgotten I'd opened and apps I haven't used in days. Is there any way to remove it on a rooted phone?
When I am on the home page and I quickly press the center button the "app drawer" used to open up but that has recently changed for me. When I quickly press on the center button and I am at the home screen now nothing happens. get the previous functionality back?If it makes any difference I am using Solo Launcher and I have KitKat 4.4.4
Ive searched the forums and everybody says to turn off the app you got to application manager/all then hit the turn off button. Well, my turn off button is greyed out. I've cleared cache, cleared data, cleared defaults. I've turned off flipboard and google newstand.This piece of crap app is still running and draining my battery.
on ICS, just tried to add a shortcut to one of my screens (it had/has room) and the add button will not work (greyed out) the shortcut i tried to add has not appeared, the button was working but stopped during the shortcut add?
My phone fell down the side of my recliner. My down volume key is now stuck and since my battery cut out my phone is now in safe mode. This means all my apps I have downloaded are not available.
my s6 is new upon 2 days of using it it gave me that problem at random where the back(return) key just works on its own,I brought my phone to the seller and they supposedly fixed it but now im having this issue again,I live in seychelles and I bought this phone from UAE. When trying to download a recommended app which can connect my phone to samsung headquarters to diagnose the issue and fix it.
How do I get the menu button back on the galaxy s6? It is frustrating that I could not access menu on the apps I use. how to ditch that overly useless multitasking button with a menu button?
the back button is flipping out, nit touching it. phantom taking all apps back to the main screen. I cant restart, turn off, use any apps at all, I cant even get into the settings to factory reset anything. I did manage to do a clear up yesterday but it didn't seem to work. I have had the phone for 4 months. I have no insurance on this device, is it even worth taking it into a store? I'm presuming its something to do with the screen on the inside. when the screen is black and not in use its fine.
I have recently bought a galaxy S6 T-mobile black sapphire and been using it for 2 weeks but the back button starts pressing itself randomly and everything just back out to home screen. I couldn't do anything else except for accepting calls.
I scanned through the web and found some has encountered the same issue but I haven't found a real solution. I'm actually new at rooting and flashing things to phone. My phone is unlocked and rooted. I did things like - factory reset and asked someone to flash the stock rom for me but the ghost pressing is still there so i'm thinking that i should completely the back button and use an app for replacement. However I don't know how to disable the back soft key.
The "smiley face" shortcut button on the Samsung keyboard no longer switches to the list of emojis. I've tried restarting phone, but problem is still there. I can long-press the microphone key to get to list though, but that's it.
On my galaxy S5 recently, over half of the time that I want to go home, and i hit the button, it just takes my to google now instead. Is there a way to change this setting?
I have recently switched to from the iphone 4s to the new Samsung Galaxy S5. Everything about the phone is great except the annoying multitasking and back button that i keep accidentally "touch" when playing games, watching full screen vids, etc. Is there a way to make the side "buttons" less sensitive or move it to the home button like the iphone? This way, I can hold the phone with both hands and not accidentally stop what i'm doing by literally/barely grazing those two corners.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 updated to Android Version 5.0 (KitKat).
Currently when I press the Power Button, the screen goes black. But it does not lock the screen.
I have the screen lock set to 30 seconds. But even so, there are lots of times when I have put the phone in my pocket and it accidentally it the home button before the 30 seconds is up and random apps get launched as my phone bounces around in my pocket.
So I would like to be able to press the power button and immediately have the screen lock. I was able to do this on my original Galaxy Nexus. But I cannot figure out how to do this on my Samsung.
I did some google searches and I found many many posts that said "go into settings, select lock screen, scroll to the very bottom and click the option to enable lock on power button."
The problem is, when I go into the Lock Screen settings and scroll down to the very bottom, I don't see any such option. So, how to enable the Power Button to immediately lock my phone?
why the back button is working by itself? I can feel the slight vibration when it does. Does it anytime I use the phone. The open apps button works by itself sometimes too. Hasn't been dropped, only had it a month!
If you use the setting to have the power button end a phone call, how do you turn the screen back on if it goes black during a phone conversation without ending the call?
Anyone SGS2 owner encounter power button sometimes not working properly? Not able to sleep/wake and long press for turn off/flight mode. Recently, have to take out battery while flight boarding.FYI: This is my 3rd replacement phone. High possibility causing by Android system. Or another hardware issue by Samsung.
I am looking for an email app that has a "delete all" button, I get heaps of emails each day and I find it very tedious selecting every message before clicking delete, so an app that had a select all button or a delete all option would be great, or any solution to this with the stock e mail app.
So I noticed that some apps utilize a floating menu button (I think that's because the s6 doesn't have a dedicated menu button?) that appears like a circle with 3 dots on the screen wich you can move around.
However it appears to somehow be broken, as when I tap the button a menu appears for a fraction of a second and then disappears again, not giving enough time to do anything and of course rendering such an app useless.
