[Q] Chrome unable to save pictures - General Questions and Answers

Ever since I switched to Lollipop, I'm unable to save pictures from certain websites in Chrome. I long press the image, click save image but nothing happens. I have to click open image in new tab, switch to that tab, and then save. Then it works. This happen to some websites, not all. Is anyone else facing the same issue?

Nexus S (FW 2.3.1), issue/bug deleting images/video's from gallery, keep reappearing

This is going to be a challenge trying to get my point across, but here goes.
Lets say i have one image/video in the gallery and i wish to delete this image/video, i mark it for deletion then select delete, the image/video seems to get deleted, i hit the home button and then re-enter the gallery and the image/video has gone, or has it? now, while still in the gallery if i press the back button to exit the gallery then start the gallery again the image/video is now back, it doesn't matter how many times i delete the image/video, it allways comes back, even afer a reboot, now here's the really strange bit, when i check to see if the files have been delete from the USB storage using a file browser i find that they infact have been deleted, but they still show up in the gallery, this behaviour occurs with all image and video files, camera files, received files over bluetooth, etc.
I hope you all can understand what i am trying to say and i hope i got my point across ok, btw, this is the second Nexus S i've had that exibits this issue, i've also done a few factory resets on both Nexus S's i've had, but this issue just wont go away.
This seems to me like it's a bug in Android 2.3's gallery app, does anyone else see this very strange behaviour? could someone test this on thier Nexus S? does Google know about this issue?
BTW, this issue only seems to occur when i delete all images and videos in all folders, or if i delete all folders that are in the gallery, i would have mentioned this earlier but i had only took one video and one pic to test the camera.

Anyone else having this issue with browser/picutres?

I noticed using the stock browser and Dolphin HD browser that sometimes when I save a picture and go to retrieve it in gallery, its a different picture it saved. When using stock browser if you hold down on a pic on the net, it gives you several options. When I select share with sms or to save, it loads up a different pic than the one I selected. It usually loads another pic from the same page.
now when I boot my phone up it works great but after time it goes back to loading up the wrong pic I select.
Any thoughts?

[Q] Internet Explorer wont open on my HTC Mozart

All of a sudden when I select the Internet Explorer Tile from my home screen on my HTC Mozart nothing happens, it just refreshes the home screen tiles, usually when apps do this rebooting the phone fixes the problem, but not in this case, I cannot open pages from Bing or open links. My phone has been updated to Mango and I have tried to revert back to an older software version but on my Zune there is no option to reinstall the update. I dont want to factory reset my phone because I will lose everything I have downloaded and purchased.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Does it happen if you hit the arrow and select it from your full application list?
If it doesn't remove from home screen and re-pin it.

Thanks for the reply, if I open it from the tile of from the application list it still doesnt open, I have tried unpinning it and pinning it, opening it through links in text messages and through bing but nothing works, I have cleared the history and cookies but still nothing, I dont understand what has caused it.
In the hacking sub forum download my Supreme Shortcuts app and see if the two IE shortcuts open for you.

How do I deploy a .xap file to my device?
Do you have htc connection setup?
if not can you download it from the marketplace and run it?
You won't lose everything.. just saved games. You have to redownload from marketplace but when you click buy, it will tell you you already bought it and download it for you. You can see a list of what you have downloaded at www.windowsphone.com. Sign in with your hotmail id.
not sure what else to tell you from there.

Solved mine on Microsoft forums, switching IE settings from "open in new tab" to "open in current tab" miraculously fixed it

I was facing similar issue. I guess I know when it started (but not sure about it).
I had opened Google Search app. I was searching some images. In results displayed, I clicked 1 image. It opened Internet Explorer. When I tried to open "Tab" from Menu to close tab and exit IE, IE was simply not getting close and it was opening continuously. I finally pressed Power button to switch off phone. After phone restarted, it wont open IE. After changing from New Tab to Current Tab in Settings, problem temporarily resolved. But I observed that while internet explorer is open and I open the tabs, it shows absolutely nothing, it doesn't show the tab for the page that is currently open or none of the other tabs that are open. Rather it shows Blank page with symbol to add new tab. But even new tab is not getting added. I tried several reboot on phone but somehow "Tab" thing is broken.
Hope this bus is fixed in 7.8.
(After I reset my phone, now IE is functioning normally with tabs working as well).

[Q] Google Chrome keeps refreshing

Say I have my Google Chrome browser open on a webpage that I am reading and I am trying to copy and paste things onto another app, so I am switching back and forth between the app and Google Chrome... The problem is that every time I switch back to Chrome the page refreshes and brings me to the top of the page every time so I get lost from the line I am trying to copy and paste from. Google Chrome used to just switch back to the page and not refresh anything and it would leave me off exactly where I was at on the page. Has anybody else had this problem or know what I'm talking about? Is there a certain setting or something that will make the page stop reloading everytime I switch back? It also happens everytime i switch between tabs too. Please help! Thanks in advance

Importing pictures into apps resets current app.

I'm not sure if this is a recent problem or if I'm just doing something wrong, but for some reason every time I've recently tried to select a picture on my device for use in another app it will only reset the app after selecting the picture. This has happened on both TweetCaster while trying to attach a photo and on Handcent while trying to Take a new picture which it acts like it does then as soon as I hit okay it resets the app and I guess deletes the picture because I can't find it, this also happens while trying to attach an already saved image and also trying to just set an image on my phone as a background on the conversation window.
Like I said I'm not sure what's going on, but if this can be fixed or anyone knows what's going on please let me know. My phone is not rooted because I'm in the process of contacting Google to replace it so I rather not root it ATM in case any one thinks that a rooting might be the source of the problem.
Thanks in advance,
Java8C
