Samsung Galaxy S II :: Cancelling The Default Selection?
Jul 15, 2012
I ticked a "remember this choice" for texting to one of my contacts that has more than one mobile number, so it became the default. I didnt realise that the choice also applied to phone calls. No problem I thought, just unmark it as default. But that doesnt seem to be an option, i.e. having set a default, the only choice seems to be to change it to another number not actually cancel altogether.The only way round it i could find is to add a new dummy number, mark that as the default then delete the number. Am I missing the obvious?
I am having a serious problem with my Galaxy S6. The keyboard and any pop up menu for selection are not visible. I can see the keyboard and any selection menu when I rotate the screen then it vanishes very quickly.
I have disabled keyboard, cleared data and cache then restarted but it doesn't seem to work.
I have wiped all the cache partition, done a factory reset, flashed a stock 5.1.1 but the problem still exists.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6. Recently the keyboard keeps defaulting back to the Samsung keyboard, rather than the Google keyboard which is my preferred option. I've reset the default in Settings repeatedly.
I had lost the above languge selection after installed "Tradition Chinese package", and can't restore my default English languge. In languge and region setup only 3 Chinese selection aviliable, please advisor how to restore the default languge selection.
When I'm Twitter, and I click on a link, the "Orange browser" opens up so I can view whatever I clicked on. Is there any way that I can use firefox as the default browser? I've looked almost everywhere in the phone menus to alter things but can't find anything.
I would like to download the Australian National Anthem and use it as my default ringtone.i have downloaded it to my computer and can see it there, but do not know how to download it to my phone.
I have an Sii gt-i9100g running ICS 4.03 (non-rooted). Recently I've been getting an error when applications try to update: "Application cannot be installed in the default install location".
So I checked my phone storage. phone memory: 1.97Gb Applications: 647mb Free: 247mb USB storage has about 10.5Gb available.
I uninstalled a few applications I didn't need on a regular basis and then the phone was able to update the installed applications successfully. I went in to application management and there's no option to move the installed applications to USB storage (I don't have an external SD card). So this raises a few concerns:
1: How come there's a mystery 1.1 gigabytes that isn't accounted for in the phone storage? I thought all of Android ICS was stored in that missing 4GB of USB storage memory... 2: If the phone doesn't allow further installations to phone memory when there's only about 200mb available, and if the phone has reserved 1.1 gigabytes for some hidden purpose, then is it true that without buying an SD card, we only really have about 700MB available for applications?! 3: Why isn't the option to move applications to USB storage available under ICS? I believe this was available in Gingerbread.
I'm new to the SII, but if its the case that this supposedly 16GB device only truly has 700MB available for apps without an External SD card, then I'm gonna be pretty angry.
Every time I try to download an app the phone says not enough storage available, but all the storage in the sd card is available. I need to make he ad card the main storage...
I have a problem with 3G data usage - going way over. I've installed TrafficStats and can't see anything going over - I've been told that it could be my email being set up wrong but I can't find how to delete the account and start again
I have been using Nova Launcher on my s5 and really like it. Before I get Nova Prime I was wondering if the unread counts will work using the teslaunread plugin with the Samsung email and Samsung SMS app.
I bought a new Galaxy S2(GT-I9100G) last week. Currently I'm unable to connect to webpages using my default/3rd party browsers using normal data connection. I can load it when I'm using a WiFi network.
I have many apps frozen and I have tried unfreezing many of them one at a time to try and set multiple lock screen wallpapers but every time I hit Done after selecting the wallpapers, I get a message saying "App not installed".
If I only choose one wallpaper, I can change it just fine, but multiple wallpaper selection doesn't work. Which app controls the lock screen multiple wallpaper selection?
The settings and apps selection icon appear on every home screen panel. I don't want either on my main home screen panel as I keep hitting them when my phone is in my pocket and end up with stuff added or changed. I want them gone even if that means they are gone from every home screen panel.
In Settings>Sound: the possibility to view the ringtones and notifications options has disappeared. Vibrations sounds can be viewed correctly with the button selection and preview option, however, in Ringtones and Notifications a file list is viewed which is /storage/emulated/0/ . The only other file list possible to view is /storage/extSdCard. No button/preview sound view available. Not possible to navigate from Ringtones and Notifications to the root system files where the default audio files are located: device/system/media/audio
The selected sounds for Ringtones and Notifications are correct and located in the default audio folders but can not be viewed. ¿?

As of Yesterday, I was able to access the band selection mode on my S6 by keying in *#2263#. However, it seems that I am no longer able to do that. Why this is the case, and is there any alternatives to accessing this function? I received a software update this morning, so I am wondering if that had anything to do with it.
I bought my Z2 in September and after 3 weeks the right earbud of my noise cancelling headset provided with the phone stopped working 100% of the time. By moving the jack connection it would come and go. This did NOT happen with my third party earphones and when trying in the Three store I bought the device in, my suspect noise cancelling phones worked with the Z2 on display OK.
My phone was sent in first time in end of Sept/start of Oct and after I got it back the issue remained and the service log showed only a flashing of the software happened.
I then contacted Sony Xperia support again to complain and was told all I could do was return the phone AGAIN to check the QA process used.
This happened and I returned the phone again. I received the phone back today and the issue still persists! Again no hardware changes made.
When I plug in my noise cancelling earphones my tablet thinks a mic has been plugged in and earphones don't work.? I've been thru sound settings and can find nothing..
I want to send someone a bbm and in that message I plan to be talking about the video game Counter Strike: Source. The short form for this game is CS. BBM always makes the the emoticon (smiley) face with the S shaped mouth.I feel there should be a way to state that I do not wish that the recipient of this message view my message with the emoticon, but rather they view the raw ascii code.I can not cite another example off the top of my head, but surely they exist and I am not alone.To be clear. I do not wish to simply dissable the emoticons on my own phone, but rather wish there was a way to force the recipient of my bbm message to not view a specified emoticon.
Today I got several complains from people I was talking to over the phone, that it's extremely noisy and that they can hear echo of themselves. I then called my phone from other phone and it was like the noise cancelling wasn't working, it was awful. After a restart it was the same. I solved it with a soft reset..until next time.
I uninstaled Microsoft Apps and the Social package from my phone. Now there are updates to those packages, and I am not able to cancel the upgrades. Do I have to look at the update icon for the lifetime of the phone? When installing the Microsoft package, there was privacy agreement, which I declined, but that did not cancel the agreement either.
Every time I sync my iPhone 4 it goes through the steps and says "Cancelling Sync" and a couple of the new albums I have recently downloaded will not go on to my iPhone. Although with my shuffle all these songs will go on with no problem. Do I need to restore my phone? When I put music on my phone I do it manually also by having the music checked on and off on my iTunes.
1. does anyone know how to reprogram the default action of the buttons, for instance, I would like to set this up like my previous Verizon (LG) phone. The top right button BROWSE - I would like to set that one up as showing my CONTACTS list when I depress it, since I don't web BROWSE very often. 2. I know how to press * to quickly lock the phone, but how do I make that require my password to unlock the phone, so other people cannot get into the phone? - right now it only requires you to press * to unlock the phone.
I have a problem with my Samsung F480.I want to change the default name of photos and videos (Photo) that I take with this mobile phone's camera !I searched through settings but I can't find such option!
I have a friend with a Samsung Gravity Touch on the Bell network and for texting it is defaulting to the ABC method when using the touch screen. Her preference would be to use T9 but we cannot figure out how to change the default.
I recently got the Samsung R355C from Wal-Mart for use with straight talk. I like it so far. I am having one problem with it that I can not seem to find any help or info for. I am using ring-tones I put on the SD card and every time I shut the phone off it sets the ring-tones back to default. I then have to set my ring-tones again. Does anybody know if there is a way around this? It seems like a stupid thing for the phone to do and its a little annoying.
Just updated via Samsung Apps the camera firmware to a CDE11 or something version. Took 4 minutes to update and flash this firmware. I wonder what exactly it changed in the camera firmware? Hopefully improved things or bug fixes.I will test a few videos and see if the bitrate has changed or not.
