[Q] HELP random square/rectangle on home screen because of facebook/fb messenger??? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A long time galaxy nexus user here, and since i think facebook 2.0 or 1.9 there have been a random rectangle the pops up when pressing back two times in a row from the firends list. Now i thought it was just my nexus, but now on the One i've been getting it too. Its easy to avoid but still annoying. Using ARHD rom. With latest facebook app.
From sense, I enter the facebook app/ fb messenger app, click the the freinds list / online tab scroll down to see who's online, press back twice to go to home screen then bam! A random reactangle appears. Now i can avoid this by pressing back once and scrolling through the timeline/ conversation list on facebook or anything inbetween the 1st back press and second back press (if you know what i mean)
Anyone at all can reproduce this?

Have you looked at Facebook settings?
I can't find the option now, but it was "chat heads" or something.

I have no idea what that is, but in response to BenPope, I use chat heads and no they don't do that at all.

It happens to me for some reason. I just open the facebook / messenger app. Click on the friends tab. Press back twice and then a rectangle appears.so strange

Can you guts tell me what widgets you're using or your home screen set up ? Thank you!

I tried reproducing what you said, nothing happens. It's odd that you say it happened on your nexus aswell, which would make me think its not a common bug but instead some app that you personally use which is interfering with facebook and causing the rectangle to form. Look around, close background processes and then see if it happens.
And if worst comes to worst..only click the back button....once.

Hmmm you might have a point there. Since i did restore all my previous apps when i went to stock.
Doesn't seem to fix... i even tried using another FB account. .. anyone know of a easy way to embed video here other than youtube so i can show you guys thanks.

Do you have any old phone laying around which you do reset and try on without any other apps?

I've seen this before too. It simply means the icon is selected. If we had hardware keys, hitting enter would open it. I don't quite know how to remove it though. Does tapping somewhere other than the icon deselect it?

If youre rooted and got custom recovery, make a nandroid and then factory reset your phone and try it out. Thatll tell you if the app itself has a glitch, or if its because of your setup of the phone

As in the friends list in the top right corner? Yup. I use teh fb messenger app to reporduce it. its faster haha.
So I have a shortcut either in my social folder or just an icon on the main homescreen, open app, slecect the top right corner online firends tab, wait to see the green dots, then press back twice .
Thanks!

Nothing. I did it slow, fast, but nothing happens, I return to the home screen. I just flashed a new ROM as well (paranoid) bit it didn't work on ARHD either. So I'm guessing it definitely has something to do with your phones setup. Something that you had on your nexus and have on this phone as well.

[Q] Google now wont work

so this has been bugging from the moment i got the phone. i cant make google now to work. ive searched all over the internet and no solution. here's what's happening.
everytime i open google now (long press home button/google apk from app drawer) it will just go straight to some screen that i think is the old google search
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
no cards no anything. If i press the mic, google now works properly and for example if I say weather it will show me the weather card (and if i restart the app the weather card wont be there) or if i say call/text someone it will work. what wont work is the reminders. if i try to set a reminder it will ask me to opt in to google now (even though i already have) and if i tap on opt in it will just take me to the same screen.
on google now settings there is no settings about cards or a way to turn off google now. i got only three options voice, phone search and privacy & accounts. ive done all the settings correct (ticked all the location options on latitude etc, ticked to search on google.com domain, chose us english as language and set home address) and still it wont work.
i already tried to force stop the app and clear cache and data, uninstalled updates and reinstalled, reboted phone and nothing seems to work.
the first time i opened google now it informed me about it and tapped on yes im in and after that it went to that wrong screen (with no cards, no google above the search bar etc).
does anyone have any idea how to fix it?

Edit- im pretty sure i turned it on on first use, but still if its not the old search and its just turned off i cant turn it back on, there isnt an option to do it. and when i talk to it and ask questions it talks back... doesnt that mean its on?
Also, some languages do not support Google Now. Changing your system language to English USA will get it to work. Don't ask me why. English Malaysia doesn't work but Singapore does...

[App] Not liking the htc one m7 stock messaging app? App solution.

This is my first thread. Don't flame me too hard if I put this in the wrong area or did something else wrong. I just thought I would share something that helped me out a lot....
I really dislike the stock messaging app for the one. The look it's fine and it is quick but I have 2 major issues:
1- no multiple picture sending from stock (garbage imho) gallery. You have to individually send 1at a time.
2- no support for adding pictures via quick pic (my preferred gallery app)
I tried all the popular apps for messaging and paid for some of them before immediately deleting them. They were either too slow, didn't do what I wanted, or were loaded with adds.
My solution was textra. (I have nothing to do with this app)
-It is free.
-No ads.
-simple
-It supports multiple sending of images (although sends 1 at a time).
-You can send via quickpic.
-has fully working emoticons (my wife has an iPhone)
If you install it and have sprint, check the "prefer WiFi" in the mms settings for it to work correctly.
I hope this can help anyone searching for a replacement for the stock app.

You are aware you can send more than one pic at a time with the stock app right. All you need to do is click the paperclip again and it'll give you the option.

when you need to send 4 pictures at a time, pressing the paper clip 4 times and selecting 4 separate pictures takes alot longer than multi-selecting 4 pictures and sending them all at once.

Android L preview bug list

For those who have installed Android L on their nexus 5 and are playing around with the new features and the OS in general, use this space to list any bugs you have found so far.
BUG: Vibrate doesn't work throughout OS
BUG: installing multi apps at one time (click and hold method) creates an error and you must download apps one at a time.
BUG: changing the color scheme on the keyboard changes the keyboard back to the old style keyboard.
BUG: keyboard occasionally stays active even after exiting an app.
BUG: keyboard's floating suggestion sometimes has Black background covering other letters instead of being clear.
Annoyance: for the one day of using it, battery saver is great but the notification is always on the new home screen and you cannot get rid of it unless you disable it..
I have 32GB Version of Nexus 5 but in Storage Settings and after flash it shows me that I have only 16GB of storage available? Anyone else?
Vibration works fine !!
Multi app installation also works fine !!

I am having same keyboard issues with the suggested word often having a black background and the other colours don't work.
Appwise: Facebook's comments window doesn't have the correct white background. It is a dark transparent colour that makes reading the comments very difficult.
Netflix FC's alot. Sometime immediately on opening and sometimes after some navigation.
Chrome is using ALOT of battery. It seems to be keeping the mobile radio active in the background or something.
I agree that the persistent notification for the battery saving mode is annoying as it shows up on the lock screen until disabled.

I have to ask, sure you are not just tapping on them once? In LP Stock, you tap once and get the "tap again to open" message lower down the screen.
What ROM you are running in addition to the kernel would be helpful, and I second the recommendation to reboot and retry, you could of course also go to a backup before you installed the new kernel, all things being equal, but the kernel shouldn't have anything to do with this.

I think this is one of the inherent notification defects on 5.0. I encountered the same issue - please restart the device and see if this remedies the issue.

That did it! wow, what is rule #1 of troubleshooting? REBOOT. I guess I tend to forget it when it comes to phones since we rarely ever have to restart.

Glad it worked! Hopefully 5.1 fixes this issue.
Apparently it is caused by two finger swiping a notification see link below

99% of problems can be solved by hitting the restart button. This has been universally true since the SNES console.
Me too
I get this problem every now and then after my phone has been on for a few weeks without a reboot. Reboot works every time.

Is there actually a "Restart" option for native Lollipop? I know you were being figurative, but having only a "Power off" option when running seems awfully spare compared to what I even had on an old Galaxy S III (plus, bootup on a Nexus 6 is rather long, but that's another point, I guess.)

Sure, though I was wondering if this was somehow hidden in stock Lollipop, because I want to run vanilla for a bit longer - keeping variables down to help with diagnosing any early problems I might find with this new phone.

in vanilla, no. but if you have root on vanilla, it can be done. if you use a terminal emulator, you can use the lines reboot, reboot recovery, reboot bootloader.

Thanks - do you find that Reboot is akin to a "fast reboot" or is startup more or less the same as going from initial powerup, perhaps?

its a hard reboot, not a soft reboot. it shuts down completely first, then the google logo, then it boots up. as apposed to a soft reboot, that starts after the google logo.

Sorry, I haven't responded for nearly a month, but yes, I meant just turn the phone on and off again.

Has anyone had issues clicking on pop up notifications from hangouts and messaging? I can only swipe them away. I can no longer click on them and go into the message. Pop up notification for phone calls work fine. I can dismiss or answer them. I want to say I noticed it after flashing Franco r19 but can't say for sure it's related.

Man, that is weird. I've not had this issue at all on mine. Is it happening on all notifications or just messaging related ones? And if so, is it just Hangouts and Messages, or are other messaging clients (Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, etc) behaving the same way?

Are you having the issue because mine was resolved by a reboot. It was only happening on hangouts messages and texts. I don't have Facebook or what's app

Mirror screen on Android Auto - Disucssion thread

Hey, i'm opening this thread since i've noticed that some other threads are used to talk about this.
As i have already mentioned it should be possible to show the screen content via http using my app (https://github.com/nerone-github/WebViewAuto) (or any other webview app to be exact).
Basically we need something which can pass user input (tap) from Car -> Phone, and the Image from Phone -> Car.
Now at least i can confirm that the second - Image Phone -> Car is not a big deal. It even works without root using this wonderful application
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.dvkr.screenstream
https://github.com/dkrivoruchko/ScreenStream
Now all we need is the input. So anyone got an idea how to do that?
I know that this is basically "against" the Android Auto concept of providing a distraction-free UI. But ultimately this will probably never be an easy thing to do, and probably just used by experienced and hopefully responsible drivers.

Good idea for creating this thread..
Let's hope for a good solution!
I would like to see Navigon navigation in car screen, very much..

If i understood well, you succeed to have mirroring screen of the phone to the car with the above app? At least to see the screen, without tapping.
Can you write some details to try? What should write to the address bar of WebViewauto, and what settings to screen stream over http app?
You did this without using internet data?
If this work, it is very useful although not full mirroring.
Thanks,

Just use the IP and port you see in the screen stream app. If you're not connected to Wifi you can probably use 127.0.0.1 or localhost
All I really want is some way to use Android Auto without having to use Google Play Music -- it's horrendous.

It sounds good but can you describe it in more detail that everyone can understand it? The links to the regarding apps would be very helpful and maybe some screenshots. Thanks in advance.
I try this solution from OP in my car and it's working. I see my lockscreen and, if I unlock my phone, the writing "Android auto" with black background.
The problem is that AA overlays other apps and I don't have the ability to use Android normally. I try to disable the option that AA display over other apps but then AA always starts with configuration wizard.
Unfortunately, so far it's not a solution.

Use the integrated mini launcher to launch apps (lower left button).
I'll try getting back and menu button to work, but that will require root also.
Didn't test on phone with software buttons.

I don't test your solution yet. I need to compile it at first. After that you'll get a feedback.

OMG!
Works very fine. Audio, video and touch. It's really awesome!
Do you think it's possible to add a button to hide left bar (and android nav bar)?
If I turn off the screen of the phone, the mirroring is disconnected. Is there a way to leave it on?
