"Complete action using" 'Always ' not setting default App

Problem:
1. select a file to open from a file browser
2. Android shows a list of apps that will open the file and give a option to use it once or always
3. Select 'always'
4. Close file and then Go back and try to open the same file. Android will show the app picker again.... it will not set the app as a default..
Any body else having this problem when trying to open a file or any other app that is supposed to be selected as a default app ? Please post here and list if your device, android version, rooted or not, I found 'drop box' to be the issue on my device. Delete drop box and issue went away.. please post... thanks, Rich

How to remove the locked Bookmarks S5

How to Remove your locked bookmarks from Stock Android browser on the S5. This may work on other Samsung Phones but I haven't tested it.
1. Root your S5
2. Go to Playstore and get Root Browser app or a good root accessible file editor and allow it Root privilege. I tried ES Explorer and for some reason it would not save file for me after editing.
3. Open Root Browser app, navigate down tap system/csc/ customer.xml
4. Select the RB Text Editor
5. Swipe down until you find <Browser> <NetworkName>ATT</NetworkName><Editable>No</Editable> Change the No to yes so it says <Editable>yes</Editable> do this for all 4.
6.Save and exit out.
7. Reboot
8. Go to Settings, Application Manager, All apps, Internet, Clear cashe, Clear data. Exit out
9. Go into Internet browser, You can now delete those bookmarks out. You will have to set your home page back up and you will lose your other Bookmarks, but if they are linked to your Samsung account you can load them back up.
I am not responsible if you mess up your phone. Please, hit the thanks button if you used this to get rid of bookmarks.
Can I get a Mod to edit my Title and add a little Bold. Plus insert a on before S5. Please!!! And Thank You
Pretty amazed that only 3 people have used this out of 230 views.

Cant change default browser

Firstly I am on Dev Rom 6.12.29 (I am trying to unlock and I keep getting the "can't verify device error").
For whatever reason weblinks automatically open in the stock browser.
When I try to clear defaults in the app section the option is greyed out as if the stock browser is not even set as default.
Any ideas how to change this?

This may work,more of a work-around than a fix (if one isn't available):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.betteropenwith&hl=en
When initially prompted to choose a default,select "Better Open With".
Afterwards,you should get the typical options of apps available & not locked into a default app.

Do you have another browser installed? Sorry had to ask if the power is plugged in.
Then,
Settings -> Installed Apps -> Defaults -> Browser -> ?? Choose that browser?
does any other browsers show up? If not, I suggest uninstalling Chrome, if that's your app, then going into defaults click on the system browser, then reinstall chrome, and then go back and choose that Chrome in that settings.
See if that works.

[Guide] Install ANY CUSTOM FONT! - Works in One UI 4.1 and older versions.

In this updated guide I'm gonna show you how to install any custom fonts you like in your Samsung Galaxy device WITHOUT ROOT. It works in all One UI (Android) versions; even in One UI 3.1!
ALL CREDITS TO @sathishtony 's #mono_ app and @__TrungDK__ 's method!
• #mono_ version 2.1 [NO-ROOT] ➜ https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...v2-1-for-samsung-oneui-1-2-3-no-root.4195613/
• __TrungDK__'s thread ➜ https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...r-android-10-oneui-2-5-samsung-phone.4203153/
Video tutorial:
Steps to follow (updated in 2021):
1. Make sure you are signed in into your Samsung Account.
2. Download and install #mono_ v2.1.
3. Launch #mono_ and allow the permissions it asks.
4. Install Samsung Sans through the #mono_ app.
5. Change your device's font to Samsung Sans.
6. At your phone's Settings, go to "Accounts and backup" and then to "Back up data" under Samsung Cloud.
──
6.5. If you can't find the Back up/Restore options due to carriers hiding them:
I. Download Activity Launcher from the Play Store.
II. In the search field you type "Cloud".
III. In the Samsung Cloud submenu you will find the Back up/Restore options.
──
7. Select only "Settings" and back them up.
8. Move your custom fonts to the "ttf" subfolder inside the "monofonts" folder (Internal Storage►monofonts►ttf).
8.5. If your font is not a ".ttf" font, then you may convert it using any online tool.
9. Go back to #mono_ and tap on "Load TTF". Select the font you want to change to.
10. Under the "Load TTF" button, tap on "Install". Uninstall Samsung Sans.
11. Tap again on the same "Install" button. Install the "fake" Samsung Sans.
12. At your phone's Settings, go to "Accounts and backup" and then to "Restore data" under Samsung Cloud.
13. Select only "Settings" and restore it. Don't delete the backup.
14. Android will be tricked into thinking that it's applying again Samsung Sans but it will actually apply your custom font!
15. You may repeat this process from step 8 or 9, for every other font, now.
