Am I an idiot or is the only way to record a video is turning off the screen and then holding it landscape and hitting volume?
Whenever I hit the camera app while it is unlocked, it only gives me camera and selfie options. I can't find any video recorder shortcut.
This is on the latest firmware (after the OTA).
If you open the camera app. Tap the button in the lower right, you should see a page with options, one of which is video

There's no button in the lower right.
The button on the lower left only gives me selfie and camera.

That's not looking right to me. I've got a series of options on my camera that aren't showing there. Anything non stock in your ROM??

I just got the phone today and haven't done anything.
Back to the store I think, probably something wrong with the phone software, but if you haven't altered anything, they should just exchange it.

I figured out the problem.
It's cause I changed to the Google Now Launcher.
Can't believe the camera relies on BlinkFeed...
Is there any way to get around this? Or any other launchers that don't do this?
I'm using apex launcher, with a shortcut to activate blinkfeed, like it a lot, no issues with the camera or anything else that I've found. Glad you got it working.

If I set a default share app in another app, like twitter, Chrome will also use that as a default share app, not giving me a choice in the matter. Why this change?
Same issue here, but I haven't even chosen a default share app. I chose to share to gmail in my twitter app and now most apps are sharing automatically to gmail.

I don't have that issue...both of you mentioned twitter, that's probably to blame

It's still doing it even though I cleared defaults. I don't get it.

I'm having this problem too. Seems to be a bug with Android: https://code.google.com/p/android/i...nd&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
Yes, I have to keep clearing app defaults in settings, because chrome is remembering share settings from other apps for some reason and using it for itself, with no choice.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Same here. Each time I try to share a page with chrome it opens "import to Google drive". The only way I found to get the share choices back is to deactivate Google drive

I'm having the same problem its just copying to clip board not giving me the share via menu at all. Same with the XDA app BTW.

Alright I fixed it. You need to go to Apps I. Settings and go to the 3 dot menu on top right and reset apps preferences like so. Yay!

No offence but you didn't fix anything..you just reset app prefs like most people know. There's still a bug, it just happens again...

Is there a way to set an app as the default option for sharing? I only want to share to Pocket in Chrome and Twitter etc. Is that possible?
Seem to be having problems with the xda app whenever i try to start it up. Just get the spinning circle. End up having to come out if app and restart it before it ever loads. I've been flicking on android central app every now and then and it loads instantly with no issues.
Could this have anything to do with me being on the art runtime? Handset is stock unrooted other than art .
Thanks

I have problems with the XDA Premium app as well. Sometimes it won't load, sometimes certain threads won't load. Not sure what's causing it, I had similar problems on my Nexus 4.
I think the xda has been having intermittent issues with the tapatalk plug-in over the last week or so.
good day.
ART is experimental so that's why it's only a developer option right now. It's only natural for it to have issues so if you want a stable rom don't use it because all app devs just got onto developing for it. Tapatalk has been having a lot of issues for the past about 2 weeks. This is probably what you are referring to so just stand by while tapatalk and xda resolve the issue. It's become even more annoying these past few days.
im lucky to be able to connect to xda with tapatalk anymore. disabling art has improved that, thanks

The XDA app is Tapatalk. And it does occasionally have issues. Wiping the data for it seems to help.

I have this problem with the xda app with all my devices. It has nothing to do with ART, as the issues were present on 4.3.
The app just needs to be fixed. Plain and simple.

My issue is that it will jump a couple threads up when it loads more. Really annoying. Randomly crashes as well. I have it on my Nexus 5 and Nexus 7, both using art. The nexus 7 has none of these problems.

I'm on a replacement device (not using art ) and still same problem.
However as said before android central for me seems almost instant in comparison.

If your N5 is rooted and and you can install a custom rom. CatalystROM does have that option for you to disable that gesture from home. Give it a go.
Theres also an app called "Google Now Swipe Disabler" which can bind to it and do nothing. The gesture still remains though, very annoying in games!

waiting on pie controls personally
I'm noticing that when the screen is off and I tap toward the top of the screen the phone screen turns on. I just noticed it today but it happens every time I tap the top of the screen. Also when the screen is on and I hover my finger toward the top part it selects buttons on the screen as if the sensitivity is high up there. Thinking of returning the phone for a new one but wanted to know if others had this problem.

I would boot in safe mode and confirm it's not a third party app before taking it back. Also poke through all the settings to be sure motion and accessibility features are off. Safe mode instructions for the s3 or s4 worked for me. I forget how to do it but Google is how I found it

what app was it?
For the past week or so when I open the app I get redirected to the google store. I have to close the store and reopen XDA app. Anyone else experienced this?
Sent from my Nexus 10 using XDA Free mobile app
This has been happening to me as well.. only it will not only open the store but also my browser and then i have to hit the back button like 5 times to get back to where i can open xda again.. then half the time it does it again.
I decided that to get rid of the ads i would just get the premium versio . So what.. it was only a $1.50... come to find out the premium version is nothi g like the free version. I get some extra widgets to put on the home screen but i cant even change the notification sound..
I just wanted the free app without being redirected 5 different places due to ads.. ?
Thanks for your response, not a good thing but at least I'm not the only one. Maybe I'll go back to using the browser instead of the app. It just happened again, first it open my browser then went to play store. Closed play store and opened app, then it worked.

It's nothing you've done. I'm uninstalling this app and leaving negative feedback. It used to be a good app, and I've used it for a few years now, but I'm done with the redirections.
