Disabled apps are enabled after boot - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, I recently got my z3c.
There are several apps I'm not interested in so I just went to settings - apps and disabled them.
Unfortunately, after reboot they are all enabled again.
Any ideas why?

You can just root your phone and freeze the apps you don't want. I had the same issue when root wasn't available, before you disable the app(s) you don't want, you also have the option to delete cache and data, delete those first and then disable the app.

Hi, I'm well aware of the rooted option but I want to know if there's any way without doing so

Which apps? I have 26 apps disabled and they stay that way with no root.

These ones:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I don't want them running. I know that if I'm using stamina it wont be doing anything in the background but while my phone is on their services does work and I don't want that.

As far as im aware i have no background data running its a bit odd

Yeah it definitely looks like something is auto-updating, Have a look under accounts and sync and see whats there. You could also use an app like droidwall to stop certain things accessing the internet over mobile data.
But you do have AYCE so dont worry too much about it. That is unless the AYCE has a 'fair usage' policy
Usually widget / account syncs and updates that pushes up the Android OS from memory..
Hi guys I had a look but I've recently flash unofficial CM10 preview so I'll see how this will run that's for all the help guys

New youtube update broke full screen?

So a new update for the YouTube app just appeared that changed the icon and at least for me broke full screen videos as can be seen below. Anyone else updated and have this same issue? Any idea how to fix it except for downgrading?

Just got the update. No issues here.

no probs here
this should be moved to Q&A tho
Yeah, sorry for the wrong section.
I somehow fixed it by restarting my phone, weird though. YouTube seems to be functioning properly now.
Just FYI for the future, it's a good idea to try basic troubleshooting steps such as rebooting, clearing app data, reinstalling etc before creating a thread asking for help.

Mine did, but they pushed another update soon after that changed it back. Maybe you just got the later update.

Prolly because I update manually and I'm not using YouTube much so it wasn't priority update

Yes they pushed another update changing the icon to the stock one and the full-screen is working once again

Devices is running

Hello everybody,
Since yesterday I get a notification that says "Devices is running". The app devices uses a lot of battery and I can't find anything about it on xda or google. Whenever I press force stop it just starts again a few seconds later. It's pretty weird because dlna is always turned off. I know I can freeze it with titanium or remove the app, but does anyone know how this is possible?

The phone runs on iHackers 4.1, but I don't think it's rom related.

I'm having the same symptoms. Xperia Z1 stock, 14.3.A.0.757. I use dlna and Throw regularly, but it is usually turned off when the notification shows up.

Haven't seen the notification now for a few days, it just disappeard again. I didn't change anything to the phone, so I still don't know why it does that [emoji53]

Flipboard sudden language change

Hi all,
Please let me know what you think when you were to see this random change on your device:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Context:
This device language setting is English.
(This is the app Flipboard -- localized socialnetwork-based news, in case you don't know, don't use it.)
The language displayed here seems to be Indonesian. All of a sudden. Just a couple minutes before that it was English.
There is nothing in this brand new device that is Indonesian-related (that I'm aware of). Neither am I.
I did not sign into the app. Signing in did nothing. Rebooting device, removing the Flipboard card from device's home page did not help. Cannot uninstall.
Any tips/guidance would be greatly appreciated !
PS: I just bought this SM-N910T on stock COD6

The same thing happened to me tonight, searching for answers brought me to your post. I'm starting to think they were hacked somehow.
I had the same thing too! Can't figure out how to fix it. There are a couple of things in English but most isn't...
Mine is doing it as well on Verizon.

Don't have permission to reply

I am trying to ask questions in the development forums and I don't have permission to reply. Why am I getting this. Also when I try to download a ROM I get this...I'm using stock browser and chrome.

Do you have adaway or some sort of ad blocker? You should add to white list.

No I don't think so. I fixed it I can reply now. Another issue I'm having is I can't download any ROMS or anything from Tapatalk pro. I get an error saying that this site can't be reached. I'm connected to the internet. I have to go to xda desktop mode before I can download any ROMS/Kernels. This is the first international device that I have ever owned, it seems different from my other devices, like the Nexus 6 and Note 4. Maybe there is some kinda permissions that I need to tick in my stock browser and chrome? I've tried clearing the cache and data in both and nothing seems to help..Thank you for the reply!!
