Hi there. When viewing a website in Chrome, if I click "settings" (three dots in the top right corner) then "share", it goes straight into a new email in Gmail.
Previously I am sure it used to give me some share options like twitter, hangouts etc.
Any suggestions? I've tried deleting the defaults from app settings for both Chrome and Gmail but it makes nowdifference!!
Thanks in advance
Jonny
Bump. Anyone else getting this problem?

exact same thing here. I experienced the same issue also with Google Keep and YouTube apps, while sharing an address with Google Maps or a photo via the Photos app works perfectly fine.
no root, no custom roms.
Thanks everyone.
I just deleted all gmail data and deactivated. Then the share menu options in chrome appeared again.
However as soon as I reactivated gmail, chrome went back to defaulting to gmail as its share option.
What the hell??!

I've also tried to revert back everything to default, yet it didn't work. it looks like gmail took over as default sharing option for chrome and YouTube. :\

I'm certain this wasn't the case a couple of weeks ago?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I cannot point out if this happened after a chrome update or after I played around with the settings: I've had the N5 for about a week now, and I'm positive that the first couple of days everything worked just fine.

For the record the same behaviour is in chrome beta...

update: I'm experiencing the issue also when trying to share something from the tumblr app.
the mystery continues...
Inviato dal mio Nexus 5 utilizzando Tapatalk
Been having this issue too in
Chrome
Tumblr
YouTube
And it's getting on my nerves. There are no defaults set for any of these apps, and the only way I can "fix" it is by disabling Gmail. If anyone else has any advice, please share.
I'd like to know if a full factory reset fixes this. (Although don't want to do it myself!)
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I've been playing around with other Android smartphones and seems that this behaviour is because gmail is the default app for sharing using a particular sharing instance, which is the one used in chrome, tumblr, youtube, etc..
I sincerly hope that a factory reset isn't the only choice here.
any news?

Got this from the Google Product Forums...
OK we've identified an issue in Android 4.4 that can cause this problem, which we're investigating a fix for.
As a workaround you should be able to go to Settings > Apps > menu > Reset app preferences to fix this, but note that this will clear all of your stored app preferences (basically every time you've ever had an app launch to complete a task and it's offered to do it Always or Just once -- your device will forget all of those choices you've made in the past and you'll get to make them again).

Do you have any recommendations for an app / widget that syncs or refreshes the phone apps and accounts? Especially gmail.
I used to have a HTC Sensation which came with the "sync all" widget. But I cannot find anything to use on my Note.

Isn't Gmail push already? I could be wrong but I'm sure a Gmail account is continually syncing?
Yes gmail is push but I choose to disable auto sync and only refresh the accounts in specific times of the day. That's why I need an app that will update all my accounts at once when requested.
Any suggestions?

just a new update for FACEBOOK 1.9
soooo smooth. go grab ur update!
Just got 2 new shortcuts, a bit of UI changes and the speed got improved a bit.
I'm not to big for the extra icons added but luckily I'm using another app for camera that isn't labeled camera like the one included with the update. Noticed the speed boost too

ICS contact photos sync?
Now when linking FB to contacts, I now get contacts photos syncing correctly on the Galaxy S2 running stock Samsung ICS 4.03. Before the 1.9 update it wouldn't display a picture (though it did work on Gingerbread). That was the only thing bugging me since upgrading to ICS. I've heard that on the stock Galaxy S2 roms Samsung had removed the ability to sync to FB, just like on the Galaxy Nexus. So i'm not sure whether its due to FB finally using the new API's or whether it just works on Samsung ICS firmware. Anyone know?
Liking the speed boost and the new notification settings.
And the $1million dollar question for today is, naturally:
How to get rid of those extra shortcuts, cam&msgr???
To hide the new icons, use a launcher that will let you hide them. LauncherPro has this feature, as does 360 Launcher. Not sure who else.
Now where's my $1 million? Haha.
Facebook 1.9 is okay... there are some UI tweaks around the app, nothing major though. Commenting on an image seemed a little more straightforward, and the comment box looked different.
If you want an ICS-themed Facebook app, look up Fast Facebook. It was just featured on Lifehacker yesterday, but I got it a week or two ago here on XDA. Should be able to find it in this very (sub)forum. I don't care for the UI but it is faster.
Heh, AWD Launcher here.... any other tweak??
TI backup cant see them.
Oh this really annoyed the hell out of me.if I wanted to install Facebook messenger I would have I I wanted to use a camera that links directly to facw book and crashes every time I open it I'd install a separate app.
Facebook needs to split the apps out and let us install the ones we want.
I'm hopefully not the only one but I've just uninstalled the app and bookmarked their mobile site in my browser and installed someone else app.
I'll have to use something else to sync photos
mez, you can use haxsync to sync photos if you are in ICS.
BTW does this version sync your facebook contacts (with their pictures) correctly in ICS?
Thanks. Haxsync has been mentioned before. I think it'll be one of the first few apps that I buy. I don't want to put my credit card on Google checkout just like I haven't on Xbox or iTunes or my wii yet I can still buy paid content of all of them
Android needs gift cards.
I'm using tweetdeck for fb and contact photos seems to sync with my contacts from Gmail anyway. They don't update but its a start.
I can live without the fb app for now.

Hi guys I'm thinking about picking up the SW2 to use with my LG G2. My main question is how well does the watch integrate with Google services/notifications?
1. Are you able to receive Google Now notifications (traffic delays etc.)
2. Are you able to receive Google Maps navigation prompts on?
Thanks!
Sent from my LG-D800 using xda app-developers app
Yes you can use watchit!. It's a app that show all notification

Unfortunately it doesnt notify Gtask for example. Have U any idea why??
If I freeze Google plus, and press the back button from within the camera,l app, my photos get deleted.
Any way to fix this? Seems the stock camera is looking for the Google plus photos app, which deletes the photo since the app is disable.
Thanks in advance.

Don`t think so, foto`s is part of Google+.
There's no way to fix it - they're one and the same I tried doing the same a while ago. As of now I'm just hiding Google+ in my launcher... Photos is too awesome to get rid of
Any way to remove the shortcut for photos from the stock camera app?

Delete google + off the phone and it will go away. I deleted a bunch of Google Apps that I did not want. Hangouts,Google+, amongst others. PLus if anything I would rather download and install then have installed as system app.

Thanks for the reply.
What I don't understand is how this has a different effect than disabling the app via settings.

I suppose since it is a system app and still on the phone.
OK the camera app update fixes this association between the camera and photos.

I am looking for a popup/floating browser for my note 5. I want it to open flipboard, Facebook, bleacher report, etc links over top of the original apps. I haven't been able to find one I like that does everything I would like. Most haven't been updated in at least a year. I know it's possible to make a lot of apps "floating" on the note 5 but that's not what I'm looking for. Any help and suggestions would be absolutely awesome! Thank you for reading!
Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
You can float many apps on the note5. Drag down from the upper left corner when in chrome, for example.
