News & Weather (genie) widget - General Questions and Answers

Is anyone else having problems with this today? I've tried it on a couple different devices and it just force closes. I'm really irritated because I use it all the time

Same "Force Close" here on my Motorola Defy (Android 2.3.7 / Cyanogenmod 7 Nightly by maniac103) and on my Nexus 7 (Android 4.2.2 / SmoothROM 5.1).
Cleaning App-Data won't help...

Yeah. Just stopped working all of a sudden at work. I am using a modified version which is just transparent. Tried a bunch of stuff including uninstalling , clearing data and just copying into system app folder and rebooting. Nothing. Came home and it is not working on my other two phones which are note2's. Weird. I am guessing it is a server side issue. I highly suspect that because Google was having server issues today. Worst case scenario is Google has discontinued service to the widget.

Looks like it's working again now.

Same problem here..
It was not working yesterday, so I uninstalled it and I tried to re-install it using a backup of titanium (I'm rooted) made just a couple of days before.. But the system refuses to install it! I don't know what's going on!! Very very unusual

Any ideas on what I should do to fix this issue?
UPDATE:
I cleared data on the app and it's still doing this. Let me try to uninstall and install Chrome again.
I reinstalled it and it was doing the same thing. I went into the settings and cleared website settings. That seamed to work. But like before, when I scroll down the facebook website, it scrolls back up to the top. It does the same thing on my LG G2x and my Nexus S. Uhg.. I understand it's beta but a lot of people don't run into this problem and/or never heard of this issue.

[REQUEST] application that show last time an as been update (by dev in playstore)

sorry if this is the wrong place, just wonder if exist or someone dev can develop an application that shows the last time an application has been update in play store so if an app is not developed since long time i can check in playstore if there is a valid alternative.
cheers and thanks.
What? You can do that from the play store itself.

Try Changelog Droid from the market. It keeps history of your updates and shows when the app was last updated.

good suggestion but the upgrade "day" mentioned in this app is the day when you upgraded it not when the dev has released the upgade

Perhaps that's true, but how long do you usually wait before updating an app in the market? If you update the same day or even the next day, it's still pretty accurate, no?

the problem comes if you are a flash-aholic and restore from titanium after a clean full wipe flash of a rom.
In that case, you might be better off with a website that you can add your current apps on and it gives dates or details for when dev updates were issued.
I use something like that for ios, but I'm not sure what's available for Android apps.

tried but it does not import installed application by default and i'm not sure if it is possibile to list the application sorting last update (on play store) order.
Try MarketMarks.
You'll have to add your own apps there, but it will check for recent updates which you can't sort.
Not really sure what else would work. What are you trying to accomplish with what you're looking for?

Would like to list my applications installed currently and sort for last update (market day of update) to check which one does not has been updated since long time and maybe then Search by myself for a better and newer alternative in the play store

I had almost given up on getting this on my Note but then tried installing this apk from Fredster90 over on the Nexus 7 board and it works like a charm.

I love this app, but the missing menu button on tablets is a pain. Thanks for the post. It worked perfectly for me but required copying it to the \systme\app\ and fixing permissions and rebooting. But it works perfectly.
Now to put it no my Nook Color.

Syncing game progress from a tablet to a phone unrooted

Hello!
I have a 2012 nexus 7 and a galaxy s4 and was wondering if there was anyway I could sync my game data from one device to the next. Its mostly for the game subway surfer for right now. I am unrooted on both so I was not sure if there was a way. Any information could help.
Thank you!!!
I think syncing game progress is impossible. But you can use "adb backup [something] -f [something].ab" and "adb restore [something].ab" to transfer the game data between devices.

Sorry my bad English.

Note 3 has amnesia, never remembers which app to use!

Does anyone else have this issue?
Whenever I try to play a video, it asks me which app to use.
But when I touch ALWAYS, it never remembers?
This happens to a lot of files, not just video.
I have a T-Mobile note 3 on 4.4.2.
My friend has a Verizon note 3 on 4.3 and she has the same issue too!

Mine does this for specific files, not all of them. Anything I try to open with Tapatalk won't stick.
Hi,
the default app feature doesn't work for most filetypes on either of my devices (S3, Note 3, Note 10.1 2014). Seems to be a Samsung bug?

I think this is Kitkat Fever.
Hi @Neo3D goto settings>>app manager tap menu and clear defaults. Now when ever it asks you for which app to run click always and I think this will save them as default apps.

Yup, have this issue too. Sticks for some then put of the blue forgets.

Interesting, I do not have this issue whatsoever - and I used a lot of different apps that require specificity such as Tapatalk, Link Bubble, etc

One of your installed apps seems to be resetting the default selection that you have chosen. I've had this issue one time.

Mine's been doing it since the reset, even before I installed any apps....
ever since KK, WiFi passwords disappear and it has nothing to do with restarting, i even cleaned cache/dalvik just to see if that is doing it, nope...
Then the Active Apps widget, it is not really accurate in 3rd party launchers, especially if they have the feature to lock the homescreen, many times it shows 8 apps open, and not more then two are shown on the list.
For wifi passwords i used this method.. Second Post

No reseting since 1-2 weeks.. Maybe this method really help
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app
This only happens when a new simular app is installed or when using a new file not associated.
I have never had a wifi reset.
Using stock tw rooted and some bloat removed.
dont forget the thanks button if I helped out!!
