Anyone else having issues getting into Market? Rooted my phone last night and it was working fine. This morning I can't get in, says loading and never connects. Web is working no problem, all other phone functions are fine.
Never mind, seems to be working now albeit a bit slow. There was this odd symbol on my Notification bar, a circle with rotating arrows (like the browser refresh), but nothing to explain what it was. Did a restart and now Market is working and the symbol is gone. Anyone ever seen that symbol before?
Sounds like that icon was google syncing

That is the Google sync icon. It was syncing what ever you had your account to sync. Contacts, email, calendar.

The ongoing Skype notification on my tablet is fine and I do not wish to remove it like many other threads state, but today I updated Skype for my Eee Pad and the initial 'Skype Signed in' ticker that displays when you sign in repeatedly pops up in the bottom corner while in the app, if you are typing at the time the notification ticker text pops up the keyboard input freezes interrupting your typing. This is very annoying as while in the app the ticker pops up every 10 - 40 seconds roughly, and while in other apps when Skype is open in the background it pops up every few minutes.
Its not like Skype is losing connection either and simply telling me it has reconnected because I have asked people while this problem is occurring and they report I have a constant connection their end not alerting them that I have suddenly signed out or anything. I am also conne ted to a strong wifi signal too. Does anyone else have this issue with the latest version for Skype on their tablets?
Working fine here, haven't had any keyboard freeze up or anything special.
same here
yes! am having the exact same problem & it's very very annoying, don't know what causes it, if any one have the solution i would be grateful.
BTW: it happened even before the last update, is there a way to disable only skype notification.
You're not alone, I have it too. Could it be Honeycomb specific? Because I don't have it on my phone or ViewSonic.
I'm so glad its not just me. I will check to see if my phone has the same issue with Skype, but I do think its Honeycomb specific...
I picked up a Nexus S from the CPW a couple of days ago. I instantly upgraded it from 2.3.1 to 2.3.6 to compare it against my Galaxy S for speed (the difference is amazing - just goes to show how bad RFS actually is).
Everything installed OK except a couple of apps:
Facebook: App opens and requests login details. Enter details and get a little progress circle that starts at 12 o'clock and works it's way round, back to 12 o'clock. The screen changes to have the blue bar across the top and a white page with progress circle. It then sits there for ever more! Adding a widget to the launcher works as expected (and displays the news feed) but when clicked on, goes to the same blank page.
eBay: App opens. I sign in and it successfully displays the number of saved searches, reminders and messages. I can click on saved searches, it will display the list of searches, select a search and it'll display the list of items. Click on an item and it will display the item view. Click on the description and it'll go to a blank white page with 'item description at the top'! Occasionally it will display the description but most of the time it won't!
I've tried closing the apps and deleting to cache to no avail.
I've also upgraded the phone to 4.0.3 but that also results in exactly the same problems!
This has all been done using a WiFi connection (that works fine with the Galaxy S on stock 2.3.5), in aeroplane mode as the temporary SIM I've installed doesn't have data enabled. The same problems also happen when no SIM is installed.
All other apps function correctly.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.
I have two problems:
a) i get bug-reports out of nowhere from time to time. No problem with any apps, everything works fine, but then i get a bugreport-notification that i can send via email or something else. I think i found out how to disable this, i turned on and off the debugging feature. But i never used this before, so why did this happen?
b) sometimes on my homescreen i can't do anything because the google now bar is activated. I have to touch the bar on the bottom and sometimes even have to open google now to use my homescreen again. I already disabled the google now shortcut with an app from the store, but this does not helf, the spotted ring is still coming up. Any help? Maybe a problem with my screen or with my display-foil?
So I've just got a new Motorola Moto G and I'm having an issue which is really frustrating. The suggestion bar above the keyboard that gives you alternate word options for what you've typed isn't visible in Chrome. It appears in the messaging app, and in some others I've tested like Google Keep, but not in the web browser.
It was there when I powered on the phone for the first time, then it vanished. I couldn't work out how to get it back, so I did a factory reset. That fixed it for about thirty minutes, but now it's gone again.
I've also just noticed that after I finish typing something in Chrome and hit enter, the bar appears for a fraction of a second as the keyboard closes, leading me to believe it's there but isn't appearing on screen.
Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks
Over the last views days I've started to notice that when I unlock my pixel 2 the location icon appears in the notification tray when I start a app like XDA or Facebook the icon disappears and when I press the home button to go back to my home screen it comes back straight away. Has anyone else noticed this problem?
I've noticed the same since yesterday. Location icon shows up every minute or so. I ended up disabling advanced location.
I've disabled location completely. I'm guessing it's a Google app that is causing it but not sure which, the only ones I've updated recently are YouTube, health services, play music, Google and keep.
Edit
Looks like a issue with the Google app. I uninstalled it and the went back to normal, when I updated it the problem came back.
I had the same issue, turns out it was the Google beta app for me. I uninstalled it and reinstalled the stable version
