Home Screen Chrome Shortcuts not working topic

I have 4 shortcuts on my home screen that only work some of the time. If I am using chrome and then I press the Home button to go back to the home screen then tap one of of my shortcuts it switches back to chrome (the last page I was on) but it doesn't load the shortcut from my Home Screen.
If I then close all the chrome tabs and then repeat, the Home Screen shortcuts work fine. Does this happen to anyone else and if so it's there a fix?

Cheers

[Q] "Unfortunately, Home has stopped" Issues on D855 Lollipop topic

Anyone encounter the error message "Unfortunately, Home has stopped" after upgrading to Lollipop on D855?

[Q] "Home" in the notification bar topic

I am not sure if there is a forum for this problem but maybe someone here can help me. I recently signed up with Net10 service. Overall it has worked fine; if there is a problem it is that sometimes the customer service person you talk with is clueless, but otherwise I don't have any real complaints except this one:

The moment my service started with my s4 AT&T phone, the word "home" shows up on my notification bar and it is always there unless another notification shows up, but it comes right back once everything else finishes. When I asked customer service they told me it has to be there and cannot be removed but offered no explanation. Well, right after I started up with Net10 my daughter and her husband bought AT&T phones and go the same service and neither of them have "home" in the notification bar. So clearly my case is different but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get rid of it.

Any ideas? Thanks

[Q] Lollipop - change home and recent buttons topic

Since kitkat, Google has made long-pressing home bring up Google Now, and the button to the left brings up recents...

I've always liked long-press home to bring up recents, and the other button for menu, and used gravity box on xposed, however now I have lollipop I can't use xposed...

Is there another way to do what I want?

I have a galaxy s5 with fusion ROM

Home button long press topic

I'm running a stock based Rom, firekat I believe.

my issue is when long pressing the home key I get 3 options, Google, greenify, nothing. There is no option to choose a default action.

Second party to this is that I do not have the default app choice option when clicking an icon as there was in previous versions.

Can anyone clear this up?

Need help with Home Button topic

Hey guys.
This is a rather unusual question and I'm hoping someone would know the answer to this.

I downloaded an app called Atooma (which is similar to Tasker except this is FREE).
The app itself allows a user to launch an app when a trigger is activated. In this case I am trying to create a task that will simulate a Home Button press when I unplug the headphones (to go back to the home screen)

The question I have is : Does anyone know which app is triggered when you press the home button ?
(Settings > Apps > All Apps)

I originally thought it was "com.htc.launcher" but I can verify that its not. I tried this and it doesn't do anything

Just a FYI : I have spoken to the Atooma team and they tried this using the 'Launcher' app on the LG phone and it works.
I tried looking for something similar on the M8 but because of Sense 6.0, we dont have a Launcher app.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Tasker not working (enable wifi/disable mobile data at home) topic

For whatever reason, this tasker profile/task is not working and I have no idea why. I want mobile data turned off when my N5 connects to my home wifi network, then I want wifi turned off and mobile data turned on when I leave the range of my home wifi. I found a Tasker profile that people claim to have working, but it doesn't work on mine. If I manually run the tasker task, it works, but if I leave it alone, it does random crap. Sometimes when I get home, wifi and mobile are both turned on and sometimes they're both turned off. They're never in the right state. Any ideas? The Tasker info came from this:

Quote:

Using Tasker (I'm sure Locale could do this as well, but haven't used it): It's easiest to do this while in range of the network you want to use to control the mobile data setting. Create a new profile that's active when connected to your WiFi network From the Profiles tab, touch the "+" at the bottom of the screen to create a new profile. On the "First Context" menu, select "State" On "Select State Category", choose "Net", then "Wifi Connected" Click the magnifying glass next to "SSID" and select your network name. Leave the MAC, IP, and Invert fields blank. Touch the back button Create an Entry task that will be executed when you connect to your network On the "Enter Task" menu, touch "New Task" Enter "Data off" in the "New Task Name" (can be anything you'd like, or blank) On the "Task Edit" screen, click "+" to add an Action On "Select Action Category", select "Net", then "Mobile Data", then set "Set" to "Off" Touch back to return to the main screen Profiles tab. Create an Exit task that will be executed when you disconnect from your network Long press the task name you created ("Data off"), and select "Add Exit Task" Touch "New Task", enter name "Data on" Selection Action Category "Net", then "Mobile Data", and set "Set" to "On" Touch back to return to the main screen Profiles tab. Congratulations, You should now have a profile named "Wifi Connected, {your SSID}", with an entry task (green arrow) of "Data On" and exit task (red arrow) of "Data Off". (tap the profile name to show or hide these details). Repeat for any number of networks; you can reuse the tasks you created by selecting their names on the "Enter Task" menu.

Issues with notifications, home button - PAC ROM, SGH-T999 topic

Hey y'all! First of all, thanks for the forum, I am using a T-Mobile SGH-T999.

Second of all, I'm having some issues with my recent install of PAC Man ROM (pac_d2lte-release-20141231.zip with gapps4.4.4). The first issue I'm experiencing has to do with the notification drop-down. After I restore from Titanium Backup, I cannot see the tiles or notifications under the notification drop-down. I've browsed through the PAC Settings pretty extensively and have not found a solution to my issue. I did find the tile ribbon that I can activate but it is still inadequate, especially when it comes to notifications.

I do not know if this is a related issue to the one above but, after restoring from Titanium, I do not get a lock screen unless it is on the first boot; after that point, I can make the screen go black with the power button but, when pressed to wake up, the lock screen doesn't come back. Prior to restoring the backup from Titanium, I have no problem getting to the lock screen.

The final issue I am dealing with has to do with the 'home' button on the device. I first thought perhaps it was a hardware issue but, after turning on PIE controls and the navigation buttons, it seems that pressing 'home' does nothing at all.

Thank you so much for reading this post, please let me know if I can be of any further information.

Wifi slow at home, but not at work topic

We just switched to Xifinity's 105 Mbps internet. I can regularly see 125 Mbps + speeds wireless on my laptop, where as my Nexus 7 routinely gets 35-45 Mbps. When I launch the facebook app it literally takes about 45 seconds for the news fee to load and even then after that many seconds the images on the feed load one by one. When updating apps on the playstore they take about 15-20 seconds to start, but when they do, the update jumps 8-12 mb at a time finishing in a few seconds. Apps like youtube and google chrome seem to function as normal with the problem only being Facebook. I brought my Nexus to work with me and with a much slower wireless connection Facebook loaded almost instantly. Here is everything I have done as well as the information about the two WiFi connections:

Troubleshooting steps completed:
Uninstalled/re-installed Facebook app
wiped the Cache partition
updated Facebook app the latest version

WiFi settings at home:
WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK (recommended by Xifinity, and honestly gives the best performance)
I tried messing around with WPA2-PSK (AES) & WPA-PSK (TKIP) but for some reason I was being restricted to a throughput of 19mbps-34mbps no matter what I did. Given this, I didn't bother checking the Nexus when I was utilizing those settings as I knew I wasn't going to use them since I was getting such poor speeds.
Laptop detects it as WPA-2 (Personal) Encryption: AES

WiFi settings at work:
802.1x EAP
Laptop detects it as WAP-2 (Enterprise) Encryption: AES

The previous router I had I was using WPA2-PSK (AES) and was getting the maximum 45mbps speed I was paying for and had no issues on my Nexus. I'm assuming this router is somehow restricting the Nexus on WiFi, but wanted to post here for feedback/suggestions before I hard reset it and potentially not rectify the issue.

Has anyone ran into something similar and fixed it?

[Q] Cataclysm: Home button not working and no toggles topic

Hello.

Lollipop wasn't doing it for me, so I decided to downgrade to 4.4.4 and why not, try the Cataclysm ROM.
Problem is, after installed, the middle home button is not working and even though I play with the toggles to display, I just simply have none at all.
Had to install a stock 4.4.4 although I was really looking forward to Cataclysm.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks.

(I have a Nexus 5, just in case).
