default apps
Got the T-Mobile variant and coming from Note II.
When I have multiple apps that can open a item, I would get a prompt. With my Note II, I could then specify to open it one time or always.
With my Note5, the prompt doesn't give me that option. I do get the option to select the application. I click the icon and then a get a popup reminding me how to clear the defaults.
But, I didn't want to set that application as the default. I still want to be prompted for selecting the app to open.
Is this new? Any workarounds?

yeah, this setting sucks. i don't always wanna open a file in the same program so i leave no default on certain file types.
Is there a way around this without root?

I've noticed that when I open filed via ES File Explorer, it still gives me the option.
Most other things it doesn't. I agree, its pretty annoying. Like attaching that photo to Tapatalk....

Anyone figure this out? I really dont want to have to install and app to do something the OS should already be doing. Seems pretty stupid of Google to not give you the option to set the default once or always like before.
I've got the same thing going on over here, very odd indeed. The GS6 doesn't do this to me.

To be clear, Google does give you the option. The behavior you see is a change samsung introduced in the latest version of TouchWiz.

gotcha. lol. either way, stupid idea to take it out. :cyclops:
I've for the same thing going on here, except that when I press an app (eg Chrome) it automatically opens it in chrome afterwards, no option to reselect unless I dive into app settings). Still very dumb. A far cry though from the annoying dialog box in old TouchWiz. The one that reminded you how to clear defaults. Every. Single. Time.
Yeah, I didn't like the old dialog AT ALL, it asked and asked and asked... I don't see why samsung changed it from the default at all, but oh well.

I thought this odd as well and thought maybe there was a simple fix.. I Google'd terms such as default apps for note 5 etc and noticed a ton of people complaining about other phones and how every time it asked them what app to open and that it was confusing and they didn't understand why it kept asking them. I wonder if samsung thought that by taking the choice away it would make the software easier to navigate.. they should have made it an option to select one time only, even if they hid it somewhere in settings. So far the better open app linked above has brought this function back and I barely notice it's not stock.

This app works great for the note 5. Doesn't work for all situations, but does for most. Not sure why sammy would remove the choice to pick to open once or always with the app. I guess they are trying to simplify things, at the cost of functionality. At least with this app you can get most of that functionality back.
This has been driving me crazy...especially since the functionality is still present on the galaxy tab s2 running 5.1.1. I tried better open with and it didn't seem to work for me. Maybe I'm using it wrong? Any tips on the app?

In fact, it is not available for any of my recent devices (Note 12.2 pro, tab s 8.4) All have been rooted and dpi modified. I know that this can cause playstore difficulties...
Does anyone have a solution? Or even better, could someone pls post the apk?

To my knowledge the Office 365 Mobile app does not support the high DPI of our beloved Note 4. Same is true of the LG G3, which has the same resolution.

It does work (I have it on mine) you just cant download it from the Play Store as they have it blocked. Why? I'm not sure but it works perfectly on my phone.

It is blocked because Microsoft has not tested it with High DPI devices, so it is not yet officially supported.

Is there a way to close all running apps with one button? Previous versions of Android had it and I feel like a reviewer mentioned using the feature. I just don't have the button on my screen.

Nope. In custom ROMs for other phones (CM12 Pre-nightly) theres a button that clears all the apps in recents but its not present in stock Android.
You'll have to wait for the custom ROMs to come before you get this feature.
As far as I know there is not a way to do this. There should be in my opinion though. Maybe a mod soon

Oh ok, I thought it was part of stock Android. My bad. It really should be... lol
To be picky, they aren't running. From this perspective I am glad they don't have a clear all, because it gives the impression that clearing cashed apps is good or helpful.
http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/2gif4g/greenify_developer_says_constantly_swiping_away/
Maybe your coming from a Samsung phone? I'm just guessing but that button exists as part of touchwiz.

Do. Not. Clear. All. Apps.
Not constantly. Not obsessively. Not hourly.
It does nothing to improve your experience but degredation in opening speed and CPU required to do so is possible. Some apps will even function incorrectly (bad design on their part, but easy to do)!
I'm NOT a fan of the new recents but clearing-all has never been a part of stock abdroid for a reason.

Without question you're right.
Problem is not all apps behave and not all of us are experts at identifying which app is the problem. This is where help is needed from the OS. And it seems like rather than making it easier they're making it harder (by requiring root to get certain usage data, i.e. GSAM).
Until then, folks will want a "clear all".

Going into Settings>Apps>Running will show which apps are running in the background. They will be doing so even after you clear all.

For me I'm not concerned about performance, but when you've got 40 or so different tabs to scroll through sometimes its nice just to close them all and start over. This is when a close all would be nice to have in stock android.

Its meant to be used for quick task switching. If you're trying to use recents to find an app older than say the last 5 or so, you don't want to be doing that.
Why they have to go so far back is beyond me.
If you're rooted, chain fire has an app (called recently) that helps manage recents. I set mine to show only actual running app and 5 more apps after that, for up to 2 hours. It also has a clear all button which as mentioned, should NOT be used.
If you want to root your phone you can keep it on the stock ROM and just install Recently by Chainfire.

Having a bit of a problem using familywhere on t mobile. I'm able to locate myself and anyone else in my family using a galaxy s6, an idol 3, and a nexus 6 that a bought this summer. But i'm unable to locate anyone using a nexus 6 a bought last week and a nexus 6 that I bought last month. I've checked and double checked the settings, have the t mobile build of 6.0. everything seems the same as the older nexus 6 (same build mra58x, same settings) but I still cant find a way to get the 2 newer phones located. I have also switched out sims from other family members who are part of the account and its unable to locate any of the on the newer nexus 6, but work fine on my other phones including that older nexus 6. Anyone have any ideas or tips?
Has anyone else experienced a similar issue on t mobile? Perhaps its not the device but the service itself. Still difficult to understand because I've even been able to track a moto e 2015 Verizon phone that has been unlocked.
i enabled the tmo settings for it online and it tracked my n6 no problem. it was so annoying though, so i disabled it again.

yes. but i dont think that would do anything for it, as all nexus 6 are running the same software, and i dont run any of the specific tmobile builds(im always modding my phone).
Ok so after messing around with settings I was able to get the phone to be located by going into the cell networks settings menu and switching off 'Enhanced 4G LTE Mode'. Not sure if this means I wont get hd voice or volte though. That older nexus 6 that has always worked in familywhere has enhanced 4g enabled, and everything works fine. Maybe its some bug?
odd. mines on, volte and everything is working. bug, maybe. or a bug on their end?
Found a quick fix/workaround:
Nova Launcher>Create Activity>Phone-99>Mobile Data>Enable Advanced Calls-VOLTE
Toggle off and on. Volte will now be enabled.

That is really crazy, I wonder how many phones are really like this and people just don't realize it. I wonder if a future update will bring back the option in the menu, not sure why they would remove it on purpose.
Mine didn't ask. It's set up for wifi calling. In fact, there's a icon in the notification bar I'd like to get rid of.

No, I did not have VOLTE for my note 7.
Nova Launcher>Press and Hold Screen>Select Widgets>Under Nova Launcher Widgets Select Activities and drag the icon to the home screen. A list of Activities pops up. Scroll down to Phone [there's 3 options for phone. Pick the one will 99 in the right corner.] Scroll down and select Mobile Data.
Like the title says! It just stopped working after months of no issues. I have the T719, and have had no issues using T-Mobile LTE for everything, including getting apps from Play. But now it sits there for a long time and gives error 500 if I am on mobile data. Works fine on wifi. I have used almost 27 GB this month, but I wouldn't think TMO would block Google Play downloads? Any ideas? I've tried every fix I've found on the net: cleared data in all the relevant apps, removed and re-added my Google account, etc etc!!
Just went into the play store to update.
Pressed the update all button, it took ages for it to start updating .

Things do tend to get more locked down over time, but I hope this continues working. They gotta let unlocked phones work, no? Yeah, as far as they know, that's what we have.
I finally downloaded an app over LTE! But it happened in another part of town, away from my home. So if I get home and it doesn't work again, I'll be scratching my head lol. Signal meter indicates similar strength both places.
