[Q] Yahoo log in required? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just today with my rooted but otherwise stock Captivate I am getting a log in screen for the default Yahoo home page.
Anyone else having this issue?
I guess I can just change my home page.

Are you on wifi or at&t service?

On AT&T. Haven't checked Wifi. Currently not on.

Do you have a login? Because my theory is that it wants to bring you somewhere other than under homepage.

I never needed a log in before. It just pulled up the ATT/Yahoo page. I did sideload an app recently, though I don't know how that would affect the default homepage login.

What app did you sideload?

It was a very simple app my brother-in-law developed for me. It just takes a couple of variables and calculates something involving an arctangent and displays it.

If you allowed it to access three internet, it might mess with the settings. Try uninstalling the app and see if that does anything, or, just change your homescreen to google or something lol.

Sounds like it's a vibrant ROM thing... you get the t-mobile/yahoo page as default.
Too strange though.

Yeah I will uninstall it to see. Can't imagine that it accesses the net, but my B-in-law is just getting his feet wet with Android programming.
<pause> Uninstalled it and still get log in screen. I will reboot.
<pause> Rebooted -- same problem. Guess I'll just pick a different homepage.

[Q] XDA app fc?

Seems that the market didn't see the xda app, so I sideloaded it. All works fine until I log in, then it fc's and doesn't retain my login.
Anyone else with this? Any workaround?

I use it on my phone, pretty nice.

I have noticed the XDA force closes a lot on me also when logged in. This is on both my EVO and the G-Tablet.

Yes and thanks... it does seem to help if I open, close, and open again.. Goog enough for now. With the new performance pack, it only takes a second to do.

Have you successfully side loaded any apps, is it enabled on your device?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
You will need to enable non market apps

You have to enable sideloading. Search for it on youtube. There are a couple videos on how to do it. Or follow the above link. Att keeps us away from bring able to set the option to side load.

I've been working on a fix (i.e. flashing old GApps, and pushing new market, etc), but have come up empty. User7618 asked AOSP if he had any ideas. We'll see what he says.

That defeats the whole purpose of flashing gapps into system.
