Galaxy S5 :: Why Does Use Touchwiz As Home Keeps Popping Up / Even After Hit Always On Phone
Apr 2, 2015
Ever since I did the lollipop update, "use touchwiz as home" keeps popping up whenever I hit the home button. I have checked it in my default applications too & it didn't work. This lollipop update.
I miss a call. I get the notification and dismiss it.
If I go to the Phone app, under Recent I see all my other calls - incoming, outgoing, and rejected. But it doesn't show me my missed calls. So once I dismiss the notification I have no record of the missed call.
For some reason, a error keeps popping up every time I connect to my home wifi. The phone connects perfectly fine and it says it is connected, but whenever I attempt to use the internet nothing will load at all. The wifi bars are there and are full, but nothing works. In wifi settings it says it is connected. On all of the other desktops, laptops, and mobile devices in the house the same wifi works perfectly fine. So, I have come to the conclusion that it must be something having to do with the phone.
I have the galaxy s6 and i keep getting on screen ads. I hit the multi task buton and it says its under "system" everyone else says its just under their notifications but mine are on screen and are quite annoying.
I am receiving a pop-up ad of applications available to download daily, it has no cancel button, just a download button but you can get it off by pressing return... How do I get these ads to go away ?
It does it intermittently, and I suspect it's because the whole phone is lagging - too many little background things running I suppose.
Assuming it's the lag problem (making a single press lag so long it seems like a long press), what are some strategies for clearing out less necessary tasks the phone is doing?
For the first time in 6 years of Android phones, I just had an ad pop up in my notifications. It was for the Walgreens drug store app. (An app I do not have installed.)
From googling, it seems it's pushed from an app I have installed, but it should be easy to figure out as I've only installed 2 new apps on this phone that I didn't have on my last phone.
Today I have been getting ads popping up randomly. I open fb, an ad will pop up. I open Instagram an ad pops up.. Hasn't happened before. I've ran lookout and malware bytes and everything shows clean.
I am trying to root my SGSII. I downloaded Odin3 v.1.85 and clicked on the .exe file, but i get a pop up in Korean + the English letters ini. When I dismiss the pop-up the Odin3 window flashes on my desktop screen for a split second but won't stay up there permanently for me to finish rooting my phone. What is causing this and how can I fix it? Is there another link to download Odin3 that doesn't have this issue?
So I've got a galaxy s6 active and every time I type be it a text or browser or whatever, randomly in the auto fill suggestions a hot mail account will pop up. Sometimes it's kind of inappropriate like some kind of dirty email or something. I've never seen these before and I don't look at anything bad on my phone.
Recently my Samsung Galaxy S6 has stopped showing me calendar reminders. I feel the phone quickly vibrate when there should be a reminder, but nothing pops up like it used to.
How do I get the immature bubble popping sounds to stop whenever I like something on facebook. I am not 12, I don't think it is cool. I should be able to like a photo of one of my nieces or nephews' kids without annoying everyone around me with that stupid popping sound.
Me and 2 of friends are facing the same issue with galaxy s6, galaxy s6 edge . I tried to google it but found no solution.I keep randomly getting a popup message that says:
OPEN CHANNEL connect to server Cancel Ok
Even if the phone is locked and the screen is off, the message pop up unlock the phone and appears for 3-5 seconds and then disappear and the phone get bac to be locked and screen is off.
got an s6 edge and the message "the dock is connected" constantly keeps popping up on the screen. my phone is overheating because of this and its draining my battery.
I have a problem with my galaxy s5. When I have it plugged into my car stereo using an aux cord every time I change songs it makes a "pop pop" sound like the speakers are cutting out. This only happens with my phone and no one elses.
Removed the popping bubbles effect in the music app? like when you play a song and when you touch the picture there would be some bubbles coming out did they remove it or is it just me?
Just recently after selecting stock apps like messaging, internet, etc. instead of opening the app an add and a quick flash to Google Play takes place. I use Avast and it found no problems.
Every now and then, a prompt pops up asking whether which option do I want to use to connect to the internet. After I select an option usually my email gets uppated, so I'm assuming the email is asking for internet. Isn't there a way Nokia messaging would update itself on its own without my having to choose an option every time?
Why I have advertisements popping up on my phone all the time?
It's random and occurs in all apps and I checked for virus with a scanner and it doesn't say anything. Idk what I clicked that might have caused this bug. Ads usually are games that lead me to the play store and not anything explicit...
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?
My S5 won't find my home wifi. It doesn't even come up as an option to select in the wifi networks. Other networks can be found, like my grandparents wifi and my neighbours however I can't find my own. Even when I manually add the network using our SSID and network password it just says that the connection is "not in range".
My 1520 now has the Bing search menu keep popping up. It has dine this now many many times and often freezes the phone on that display. I have had it do this without even touching the screen. Just reading an article and out if nowhere it pops up. The only way to resume is to turn the screen off and back on. Its getting annoying and only seemed to do this after the last update, not windows 8.1, just the last regular update. I also get the screen shaking up and down sometimes and have to turn the screen off then back on. The screen contents will start shaking violently up and down. I have done the soft reboot several times and gone into the Bing settings to turn off but it still does this. I should have never updated this phone. It worked brilliantly before it. What's next, hard reboot?
Have a Samsung S6, i use the same wallpaper for both my home screen and lock screen but everytime i change the wallpaper for both, the lock screen has the full image and the home screen is always slightly smaller by about 4% or 8%.
After a update now if i touch the home button regularly it pops up google now I have to quickly tap the button to go home. I tried nova launcher but no change.
