I get this annoying dialog again and again even after choosing a default application. I find this extremely annoying and one of the weaknesses of Android. I suspect that it is caused by updating apps but I think the apps should be disabled by OS of clearing this setting.

Btw. phone is Galaxy SII and OS ICS something (I think 4.0.4), factory OS with touchwiz.

Yes, whenever an app is updated, it removes this default tag. You can live with checking a box again once every few months when devs update their apps. Not a huge deal at all. There are larger issues than that.
 
Found this thread when searching for a fix to this problem.

Every few months??
Most apps I have are updated much more frequently than that.
And considering the number of apps I use, I have to set default several times a day.
It is very annoying.

Has anyone found a way to set defaults permanently?
