For some days now I've been experiencing a weird issue with the back tap of the navigation bar.
At times (like 1 out of 5) when I'm inside an app and I tap back instead of going straight to the home it shows for a split second (but sometimes even longer like 2 or 3 seconds) one of the apps that was previously opened (especially apps that I use a lot like Twitter, Tapatalk or What's App).
The weirdest thing though, is that I'm now currently using my 3rd different rom and my 4th different kernel and I've been experiencing the issue with ALL of them. Purity 4.4 with Franco r16, Purity 4.4.1 with Franco r19, Cyano 11 with Trinity and now Cyano 11 with Franco r20. In all of those combination I've had the issue with the back tap. Sometimes doing a wipe of cache and dalvik helps post-pone it, like it doesn't show up for some hours, but then it always comes back. I don't recall having this issue when I was stock, but then again I remained on stock for a very brief time.
Anyone else been having the same problem? How to solve it?

4.4, 4.4.1, 4.4.2 all do it.
Been using 4.4.2 since last night and at the risk of jinxing it, haven't experienced the issue anymore. Finger crossed it just won't happen again.

Seems to be a KitKat Bug. You can reproduce it also on a Nexus 4 or Nexus 7 with KitKat, also 4.4.2.
See Issue 63570 Android Open Source Project - Issue Tracker, sorry, as new user I'm not allowed to post links...
" Steps to reproduce the bug:
- As you can see, the home screen is cleared.
- Tap on battery settings from the quick settings dropdown menu;
- Use home button to come back to the home screen;
- Once again, tap on battery settings from the quick settings dropdown menu;
- This time, use back button to go back;
- Enjoy another background app opening for a second with no reason before going back to your home screen."
Hey, I was wondering if someone could give me some insights on why Wakelock Detector refuses to open for me now.
I've been using it for about a month now but all of a sudden when I go to open it it says "Unfortunetely Wakelock Detector
has stopped". Im on a Nexus 5, rooted, stock w/xposed,gravitybox and a couple other modules. .....Ive uninstalled WLD, reinstalled it
, cleared the data, everything I can think of....
Anyone know why this is happening??

Have you tried clearing app data, or reinstalling?

You get the xposed module to allow battery stats for android 4.4? That's what I had to do.

I did, but no luck unfortunately... It will work for a minute perhaps then crash and keep giving me the "unfortunately wakelock detector has stopped" or whatever it says... . Any other ideas???

Yes I do! Better battery stats works fine but I really enjoy wakelock det. app.
Is there anything else I could be missing? Im completely stock other than Xposed and Franco Kernal. Could there be anything else messing with its operation to open and function properly??
Same problem here too. Can't get Wake lock Detector to open, I get the same message and have tried installing the xposed module
All other battery apps I've tried work.
I've got the exact same problem, can't get my head around why
Nexus 5 stock rom with xposed installed
Same here, I've been having this issue for a long time already. I've actually given up on WLD because no one seems to have an answer as to why it force closes :/
Long time has passed on this thread- got here googling for solution to the same problem.
Anyway, for me it was a conflict with another xposed module (force fast scroll) that caused some apps to close, including WD. Took me several iterations of enable/disable/reboot xposed modules
Hi,
Searched the internet but could only find one other writing about the exact same issue that I have.
Has any of you experienced the same? I happens quite often unfortunately...
Quote from this Google forum:
I have a habit of using "Back" button to "exit" from Android applications back to the launcher. Recently, I started noticing a rather peculiar and intermittent behavior associated with "Back" button. Consider the following scenario:
I launch my Out of Milk app using a icon on my launcher screen. The app starts successfully. I do what I wanted to do. And then I hit the "Back" button in order to return back to the launcher screen. The Out of Milk GUI disappears, but it is immediately replaced with Google Earth app splash screen. It is displayed for a very short time (a split second). Then it disappears and I finally return to the launcher screen.
Some other time I launch RealCalc app, do what I wanted to do, and hit the "Back" button. For a split second I get thrown to Contacts app for and only then I return to the launcher.
This seems to happen with all apps. Sometimes, when I hit the "Back" button I even get to see glimpses of two apps instead of one, in sequence, each for the very same short period of time. This behavior is very intermittent. In many cases the "Back" button works as it is supposed to, i.e. it returns me to the launcher screen immediately.
So, what is causing this strange "flashback" behavior?

well, if you don't have any launcher set to default, you can kill it and when you click on back button it goes to random app, but you have the default launcher set, so this is not the problem in your case.
P.S.: I also have Nova Launcher and don't have this problem, so the problem must be somewhere else.

I'm using the default launcher.
It's very random to me, which app is popping up. Mostly it's an app that I've been using within the previous couple of hours...

That's really weird. Do you use any custom ROM/kernel? Do you have Xposed Framework installed? Is your phone rooted?
same thing has been happening to me for a while on probably 5 different roms and I always use the GEL launcher. I cannot for the life of me figure out why it does it.

Stock ROM with Franco kernel. But I think it also happened on Faux kernel, but not 100% sure.
I also just disabled Xposed Framework to be able to run on ART, which didn't change it.

It just don't make sense to me. I am also using Franco kernel, but not with stock ROM. I also have GEL and Nova Launcher installed. I have run out of ideas.
same here, quite annoying, 4.4.2 stock and franco r34
I find this happens when a [bad] app crashes. I can't remember which app I had problems with but until I uninstalled it every time I used the back button to leave it I'd wind up in another app, usually one I had not used in a while.
happened here too... stock launcher, stock kernel, gravity box installed, rooted... about the only changes i've made.
Just a kitkat glitch probably

This same issue happens to me as well, not too often but it does occur. The apps that mostly come up for me are the dialer and gmail. Im running SlimKat 4.4.2 Build 3.6 with Nova Prime set as the default launcher and I actually started experiencing it after seeing several people who brought it up in the SlimKat thread. However, from what all i have read, seen, and been told about it though, it has been happening to people on all different KitKat roms both custom and stock and not just any one thing in particular. Like another person said, i too believe it is just a KitKat bug in general and not something specific as to any one single thing that could be causing it. I would guess that it will be fixed eventually being that many people have been experiencing it and not just a few.

I'm also having this issue. Stock rom/kernel and rooted. Caught it on screen record. Excuse the background noise. Didn't realise it was recording sound. http://youtu.be/sOxzuiFv3xQ
Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this problem. Also sometimes when I'm exiting to the homescreen my icons and widgets take a split second to appear.
The same thing happened on my Skyrocket running 4.4.2 before it kicked the bucket. Figured it was due to running a custom rom but now it's happening on my mostly stock N5.

This is unrelated, it is just redrawing your homescreen.
Haven't had this issue. Are you guys tapping the back button quickly and repeatedly?
I am wondering if there is a xposed module that works with our sprint s5? Mainly looking for the skip tracks with volume button mod?
2.5.1 is working fine for me

Having problems with Xposed Framework, once installed, I'll start with two modules Gravtity box and Greenify donated version. I also installed busy box as per some videos suggest. I notice my clock widgets whether it be Beautiful or HD widgets starts to lag with the time, and I get spotty WIFI connection, with a message saying that the connection is being check for quality, or something to the effects, after rebooting a couple of times and turning the WIFI on and off 3 times, it finally connects and run like new. Is there some type of adjustment I missing or do I need to installed a deodexed rom that have some typ of slight mod done to the rom. I running stock rooted G900PVPU1AND2 and stock kernel.

Do you have the dynamic voltage scaling option checked?

Try upgrading to Xposed Installer 2.6 (just came out yesterday!). Also FYI only GravityBox v3.1.0 works for our Sprint GS5.
xprivacy seems to be working. Tested with a couple different apps to see if they could see contacts\location and everything came up blank. I have also seen the "not connected to internet" errors from apps if not set up correctly.
Does s health work without doing this now?

Solution:
Install any file editor, here used the Build Prop Tweaker Pro, look for the line: ro.securestorage.support = and change "True" to "False"
Restart the phone, Xposed and S Health 100% functional module.

Anyone noticed how when you press the back button to exit and application too fast, the screen for you recent apps also display before you are taken back to the home screen?
This issues started after 4.4.3
Anybody have any solutions?
It's always been a weird KitKat bug, for me it brings up a random app from somewhere in the recents list that's not even been used for a while. Lol

Yes, not a 4.4.3 specific issue sadly. Was hoping this would have been resolved in the latest update but clearly not. D'oh. I'm completely stock everything, unrooted and it's happened since I bought the phone in February.
Ref: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/random-app-pops-button-exit-t2680148
I am completely stock too. I only started noticing it since 4.4.3 - or maybe it was always there.
Its quite irritating. Is google looking at this?
I've seen a dramatic increase since 4.3.3. Doesn't do it all the time but once it starts it seems to keep doing it for a while.
I cleared Cache and Dalvik but didn't make any difference.
Think this happened to me once recently, opened Google Chrome on its own.
Maybe it's not a bug. Returning to a previously used app could be seen as a convenience. Just a thought.

I've never experienced this issue. Why not just press the home button to exit the app?

I can confirm this starting from 4.4.3. It's quite simple to reproduce it for me:
Open Chrome and press the home button.
Open WhatsApp and enter a conversation. Press the back button two times quickly.
This should bring you back to your home screen. Instead it immediately will pop up Chrome for a moment, just to close it automatically afterwards. I press the back button two times in a lot of apps, so this is starting to be really annoying. I'm running everything stock. Has anyone experiencing the issue tried to hard-reset the phone to see if it goes away?
I used to face this on stock rom as well... Ever since I've started using a custom rom (AICP) , the bug has disappeared.

I've tested it myself and I can confirm that a factory reset does not solve this issue.
Confirm, but true only for stock 4.4.3. Fast pressing back button to exit an app will cause opening last active app (f.e. open dialer with messaging app in background, twice-triple tap back and it will close dialer but bring messaging app right from home screen and close it (wut?)). Running custom and there is no such bug.

After applying the 4.4.4 OTA this bug still seems to be present.
