I recently made some Display Settings changes to my S10+ and found that now when I push the Home button (middle button at the bottom of the screen) the phone returns to a different panel than before. Before it returned to panel 1 where I had all of my main apps but after the settings changes it started to return to panel 3 where I had my least used apps.

I tried to find some place in the settings that controlled which panel was displayed when the Home button was pressed but could not find anything. Can anyone help me? The only way I have been able to address this is to move all of my main apps to panel 3 but that seems like the wrong way to fix this. I think I should be able to set which panel is the Home panel but don't see where or how to do that.

Any help would be appreciated.

Here's your best info for rooting...

I don't know the technical details of how to implement it, but I've used several apps which have made a similar transition. The general flow seems to have been to convert the paid app into a stub application which only functions as a license key. When a user installs the new free app, it checks to see if the paid app is already installed; if so, it unlocks the IAP features without requiring the user to purchase again.

The downside (for users) is that since there isn't an actual purchase happening there's no server-side persistence of the feature unlock; the user will have to remember to install the paid app and the free one if they factory reset or get a new phone. And of course the downside from the developer perspective is that the reviews/ratings don't transfer from the established paid app to the new free IAP-powered one.

There may be other ways to handle this but that's the approach I've seen used the most - and, again, not a developer so don't know the technical details of how to pull it off.

Oh, and I updated the thread title to hopefully grab the attention of someone scanning the thread lists.

Hmm, I don't believe I have a dbl tap app. It's an LG phone, I understood this to be a feature rather than an add on. Really not sure, I'll look.

Without the proper credentials I'm afraid there is no way to get into the device

I had the same issue recently.

If you cannot get Google Play to update it either, then clear the cache of your Google Play Store and Google Play Services apps and try again with the Play Store.

If it still won't update, then clear the data from both Google Play Store and Google Play Services.

Open the Play Store and wait 5-10 minutes for data to be sent.

You should go through and double check your app settings on Google Play Store, as a data erase resets all settings to default.

Once Google has updated the Play Store, Play Services, and possibly a security update as well, try to update YouTube.

I have to use a firewall to turn off internet access to Google Play, because if I don't then when I wake up many apps will be updated- apps that I do not want updated at all!

This is regardless to the Do Not Auto-Update Apps setting, which is always off.

What is your default browser?
It is possible that Chrome is chosen, and so will restart when you open a link from another app.

Settings
Apps
(settings pinwheel)
Default Browser

If this is set to your own browser already, then you have another issue.

Different browsers integrate differently, some more than others.

My favorite browser, Lightning, is great- but it will not search for song lyrics when asked to by my music app (Black Player).

But an option to use the stock browser (yuck) or Chrome (double yuck) pops up instead.

So I had to find another browser that would also show up on this option when it pops up.

Lucky for me, I did.

FOSS Browser (F-Droid).

I made FOSS my default browser, and now all apps that have links open them with FOSS.

It is very small, and efficient.

When I am doing my own thing on the web, I use Lightning.
And now FOSS is handling all my links from other apps.

It seems like a pain, but after getting it set up and tweaking the settings it actually works quite well.

12Gbs of ram, Now that I like. No falt of Samsung but 5G in the states is a joke. Its a beautiful phone and the specs are definitely impressive.

Since my Note 9 took a 2 day saltwater bath I'll be upgrading anyway. I can't wait to see what improvements they have made on the 10 versus the 9.

I did see the batteries are massive (4800ma on the +) with some weird crossword solver sip calculator Onlinesbi hypercharging tech. I hope they turn into personal explosive devices like a couple years ago.

I tend to also buy the phones on a 1 year delay after release, so an S10 variant might be at the right point for me some time in the next year.

How can one create an android app with the cap_lease capability?

In the same vein, can an app without cap_lease capability acquire a lease of a file in some commonly known directory such as Downloads, Pictures, etc?

Welcome to Android Forums, newbee1235711!

You're most likely to get help with coding questions by posting on our Android Development board, where developers share their knowledge.

Good luck with your app!

Yep! Thanks, Rob.

Please can anyone help me with codes to make my app dial *170# and then select 1 from the menu that will display.

Welcome to Android Forums, Rafkon!

For help with coding, your best bet is to post in our Android Development board. That's where fellow app developers hang out.

Well we are getting off-topic, but I trialled Google News for a few weeks, at the end of which I had decided that it was some sort of bizzare social or psychological experiment: to release an app which claims to learn your interests but in fact takes no notice of what you read or what you tell it never to show you again. Perhaps the idea was see whether users would give in and conform to what they were told they liked, a sort of gaslighting by algorithm? Or maybe their algorithm just couldn't accept a Brit who isn't interested in football or celebrity gossip and so ignored my instructions to stop showing me that #### (which reliably made up the majority of my "personalised" feed, no matter what I did).

On the plus side, I decided that Google not understanding what interested me might be a good thing

Oooh, all mysterious.

Been a few years since I did this type of thing with an HTC, and never with an M8, so I don't know the S-Off tools for that (which sometimes depend on the firmware version anyway).

Can you get into recovery? If not that might mean you flashed the wrong recovery rather than the wrong boot.img (why were you flashing that anyway? Was this a magisk install?). Conversely if you can get into recovery you can use that to flash a new ROM (use a computer to copy on to the SD card or use adb while in the recovery).

If youscan't get into recovery the simplest option might be to relock the bootloader then flash an ruu. S-Off will let you flash ruu for a different cid or an older firmware version, but it will also let you flash one from an incompatible M8 version so you need to take care if you go that way.

How many Android Developer friends do you have now? Or still on solitary confinement?

I'm not buying s20 now its gonna be too expensive but was thinking of upgrading to note 10 plus. Any input appreciated.

Hello everyone

I made my first hyper casual game. Stack Tower Ball is a simple brick breaking game.

I wanted to be inspired by a previous game because this was my first game.
Please give me a chance and give your feedback
