Some constant issues on 4.1.2 jb - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I'm facing a few issues as follow:
Unreliable Google now app search function - sometimes typing an app name doesn't cause any app to appear.
No sharing function after taking screenshots using long press method - allows you to edit and draw on the picture but unable to share straight from it.
Buggy recent apps menu - sometimes when pressing on one of the recent app, the click doesn't register and it takes me to a random app instead.
Anybody face similar issues?

[Q] Websites pop down menus disappears when i try to type.

Hi there this website is a good example of my problem. If i click on the icon, search this forum icon, a little drop down box appears for me to enter txt. As soon as i click on thr box the keyboard comes up but the box vanishes, no matter how many times i have tried. Help!!! This happens on most websites.
Also I have the exact sane problem I suspect its an android issue.

I've had this issue with all current honeycomb browsers--stock and third party. I'm thinking it's an android issue.

Quick - Command button behaviour - fail

Hey there
When I choose the quick - command button to open the app drawer it just simply switches to the homescreen instead of opening the drawer. The other functions (e.g. taking screenshot/open camera) work flawlessly.
Anyone else experienced this problem?

Camera app disappeared

Hi, I'm new in this forum and also I'm a new android user. I got this phone yesterday and it came with the 4.1.2 update, it is working fine and all, but today something strange happened, my phone freezes up while I was watching a video, it rebooted itself and then, the camera app was gone, and the gallery app also seems to have disappeared, although they both appear on the settings/apps menu. I would like to know what can I do to solve this, please as I don't understand this system well.

Are you using a custom launcher? Most custom launches have the ability to hide apps in the app drawer. Check in the launcher settings for an unhide option.

Go to the app menu where you see the apps. Touch and hold your finger on the app for a second or 2 that you want back on one of your home pages. The home pages should show up and simply drag the app where ever you want it. Move your apps around like this and you can change the apps on the bar on the bottom of the screen the same way.

Thank you for the suggestion but it didn't work out. Unfortunately, I didn't had any other choice but to factory reset my device and now I have the camera back, but thank you for the fast answer!

I think I have a similar issue. I am able to search after a reboot but after a while it stops working. I think there is a problem with cached processes. Try going to settings > apps > cached processes and stopping the Google Search process. Things should start working. It's not an ideal fix though. Hopefully it's a fixable software bug. I've submitted a bug report to Google so maybe you should try as well?

Thanks for the reply. Your solution actually works and hopefully this gets fix.

No problem. As I said, it's not an ideal issue but neither is it a total deal breaker. I wouldn't RMA the phone for such I thing I don't think. It obviously seems like a software problem so I sent through a bug report using the feedback function on the phone itself. Maybe if it's a widespread thing Google can actually take an active look at it and release a fix. to my unqualified mind it seems like there is a problem putting apps into the cached process. I've noticed with more experimenting that the search function seems to stop only after swiping the app away from the multi tasking tray...Seems as though the system is having trouble storing Google Search in cached processes.
Of course, I am not a proper developer so I could be totally wrong.
I'm glad the temporary fix works for you also!

[Q] google search app misbehaving

I have the following problem. Sometimes if I haven't opened the search app in a while, when I am trying to open it by clicking the search bar, the animation starts and the app closes (the search window minimizes). Then I tap the search bar again and it works. As long as the search app stays in the multitasking tray I can open the search app by clicking the search bar once. If I swipe the search app away from the multitasking tray, then it takes two taps to open the search app as I described above. Do you have the same problem? What should I try? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the google search app but the issue continues.
PS. I am sorry for my english, its not my native language.
Having the same issue. No idea why its really annoying.
