magazine here and now force close - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

i have a fully stock GN3 but i keep getting force close on this app. i could be doing anything and the phone freezes with the message of force close with magazine here and now. In app i force close and clear data and caches. still comes back. any idea how to get rid of it, without rooting?

I have the same problem, anyone have a solution?

Clear data. Don't give it any info. And make sure to disable all shortcuts for it. That's what I did.

what shortcuts did you delete? can't stop the swipe up feature can we? Because that's super annoying also..

I'm sure a good dev will figure out a way to get rid of it / replace it with Google now. Otherwise I got rid of the home button shortcut.

Any solution for this yet?

Easier fix for now is to install an alternative launcher like Nova Launcher.

I use Nova and still get the FC popup. I clear data for Magazine and don't get it for a day or two

Clearing the data did the trick four Me. I was about to delete the apk but didn't have to.

I almost did too but it's a pretty cool app and I use it quite a bit. My wife has a Groupon account so I look in My Magazine for Groupon deals.

Problem with site is that once u look at a picture and hit back button it refreshes the page and starts u back at first post.. But the plus is its always set to most recent. Where the app is never stays rite.

Take a look at my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39194953&postcount=18 for more info.
It frustrated me seeing it up there half the day so I un installed Facebook and reinstalled it. I then canceled, and deleted the download. That fixed it for me. Same thing fixed my infinity tablet as well.

how would you compare to google now though
since the bad english on that guys part, what did you do for installing.. did yo uuninstall s-voice (if already on phone) then flashed... or were you able to flash it over s-voice etc.
I like it better than google voice the s voice driving mode is working as well! pretty cool having texts read back to you while driving I just installed it over my previous svoice works great!

Clearing app defaults

Got used to nova launcher (and bought prime) since I was on my s3 with liquid smooth, but now being back at touch wiz I keep getting a message saying that I need to clear my app defaults. Makes me choose which launcher to use each time.
Had this problem on touchwiz with my s3 but went aosp and didn't have the problem again. Kinda liking tw on this phone so I'd like to stay with it if I can figure this out. Already tried clearing all defaults and then tried going into the specific apps and clearing the defaults. No luck. Help?

Why not FREEZE the launchers you do not want to use with Titanium backup, that way they will still be
there in case you ever want to use or mess around with those other launchers.
By doing that your default launcher will always be used without a popup box asking you what to do.
If you want to use another launcher which is frozen just unfreeze it...
I know that normally you should not have to do this, but if you just cannot figure it out it does not hurt
anything to freeze a launcher.
good luck!

LG keyboard greyed out options

Hey all. I just got the phone yesterday and am loving it btw. I liked using the LG keyboard and having the extra row on top with the numbers. However, after messing with it for a while, that disappeared and it started to say each letter out loud and most of the options are greyed out as seen in the screen shot. The only thing I have found in searching that might have caused it is trying out light flow lite. Has anyone else experienced this or know a way to fix it?

Yes light flow and other apps seems to trigger the talkback feature even though its says its off. The solution I found is to go into setting then apps find the talk back app and uninstall it. Then all that will stop. If you ever need it again you can just install it again. I notice this only happen with LG keyboard. Other 3rd party keyboards are fine

That did it. Thank you so much! However, it worked to simply disable the Talkback app instead of actually uninstalling (it didn't have that as an option since it's a system app). Everything is good now!

There is no option there. Only a force stop option, but I believe that once you reboot your device the app is again active.

Google Home Launcher. Tried my best to provide info and files. Good luck!!

Google Home Launcher. Files and instructions. Should work on most Jelly Bean phones.
Download the files.
1st - PrebuiltGmsCore.apk (Google Play Services) first.
2nd - Velvet.apk (Google Now)
3rd - GoogleHome.apk
Place the lib file in System/lib folder and fix permissions (owner , group and others should be checked under READ)
(ONLY owner should be checked under WRITE)
Reboot.
Thats all I did. If OK Google doesn't work do this.....
Settings - voice - offline speech recognition- install language of choice. I use English. - switch to english UK and perform a search and then swich back to normal language. That shoult make everything functional. If not.....I tried. Works for me!

Thanks for the icons. However, the backgrounds aren't transparent. Could you perhaps provide us with versions with a transparent background? Thanks again.
are the apk being installed just like regular apk's or are they being pushed to a specific folder?
Nvm got it to work, looks like it has potential, it would be good if we could set our own settings for the drawer and if we could hide certain apps

So when I tried to install PrebuiltGmsCore.apk, it said "application not installed", but I went thru and installed everything else, rebooted and it seems to be working ok. Should I be worried?
This hack is awesome. Makes the ROM 2 x faster.
One other question,
I've noticed on my home screen tile it doesn't have number indicators next to the stock e-mail and SMS icons to show how many items are unread. Is this by design? Any way to fix this?
i believe that is how its designed.. hopefully they will add that feature at a later date
How to make the status bar transparent?
Has anyone been having some random reboots? Seems to happen when the battery gets lower then 10%. Happens maybe once a day.
