I have a Motorola Droid; today the Voice Search stopped working. I've not installed or even updated anything, have not changed any setting in any app anywhere- but it sticks on "Speak Now." Hitting Cancel makes it stop, but killing all apps and restarting didn't help, and problem continues. Any ideas of where to even start?
PS- the problem occurs when I have the browser open.

Today, when I connected the phone (SE Xperia x10i) to PC, I was shown 'update available'. I updated. All worked well, but the Market is not working after the update, nor is the browser. The market is showing 'loading' with terms and conditions (it is more than 3 hours now), while in the browser, only the Google homepage is opening.
No other site or Search option in Google is working. However, other widgets like Facebook, G mail or email is working fine. The phone is showing to be 'up to date'. I have accessed the market quite a number of times before the update & require some apps from it urgently.
I have 2.2 OTA on my DX and I have the Google Search widget on my home screen. If I do a voice search through that widget, the results come up in the stock browser. If I do a text search, the results come up in my default browser (Dolphin HD). How do I get voice results to open my default browser instead of the stock browser?
View 3 Replies View RelatedOn my Samsung Moment, me and my girlfriend's SMS text log is so long that my phone often freezes and stops responding 2 or 3 times before I can finally read something she just sent. We're talking almost 5000 messages here. I don't want to just delete them all so it goes faster tho, I'd really like to log them away in case I ever want to read them again. Does anyone know how I can do this? I couldn't seem to find them by just browsing the phone during usb connection.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on an app that uses a GoogleMap and lots of overlays/markers. Controls and navigation is handled automatically (no direct user interaction with the map needed so far).
Things work the way I want right until the app pauses and goes into the background. When I resume the app the map has zoomed out to 0:0 and it doesn't react to animateMap or anything anymore. I can't seem to figure how I get it back to the state where it doesn't react to user interaction and actually updates with my markers and stuff..
Below are the three methods handling the map, and it doesn't seem to react on any of it after a resume.

My phone touch stops responding after using it for some time after locking screen .

First off, I apologize if I start a new thread when one already exists. I tried searching, but couldn't find anything related to my issue.
The issue:
When I have to restart my phone, all apps stop responding, including phone, google apps, everything. I can't make calls, I don't have a signal, nothing works really. The solution: uninstall recently installed applications, and that fixes it.
However, I wonder if there is something else going on causing this. The reason: Yesterday I installed Backgrounds (a popular 4-5 star application from Android Market). I had to reboot my phone (locked up), when I did, nothing was responding, got messages like acore, gapps, and other apps stopped unexpectedly. I removed Backgrounds, restarted again, and everything worked. My wife uses Backgrounds, but her phone doesn't stop working when she has to restart. Why is this happening on my phone? Is there another app causing interference?
I'm using Eclipse and the Android SDK for Linux. When I start my emulator at the beginning of the day it works fine. Later in the day it's sluggish and still later it won't start at all. This computer runs Debian linux, the testing branch, with 1Gig memory and a two 1.6 Ghz processors. On another machine I have, the emulator works the same at the beginning and end of the day.
It has 500M ram and a single 1.6 Ghz processor. As it turns out I cannot use the second machine for all my daily tasks. How can I get the first machine to work? Is it the number of processors? I cannot figure out how to disable a processor in the emulator. I was looking at the '-qemu' options, but none seems to do the trick. I don't understand the qemu options that well.
Every time i click on the play store icon it looks like it starts to open then before the page could even load it closes and if i do it enough times it says sorry play store isnt responding... Whenever i restart my phone this message pops up, unfortunately, the processcom.google.gapps has stopped
View 24 Replies View RelatedI have 2 activity...suppose i name it activity A and activity B.When the application starts it shows activity A.Then after 5 seconds,it automatically switch to activity B.Activity B contains a listview and checkboxes with each item of listview.If user checks something then he press back button and returns to activity 1 page.All these works correctly.
Now my problem is,activity A has a button to go again activity B page.When user press this button i want to start activity B from where it stops..that means the user will see what items he had checked earlier.Is it possible to view the activity B page from where it stops?
I rooted and installed a custom kernal several days ago and am very happy with the battery life. However I have a weird problem ever since. My audio stops working all the sudden out of the blue. Ring, text alert, etc. just stops. the only way I can get it to start again is rebooting. Anyone else having this issue? Can i fix it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis morning my camera and video camera would open and then immediately close down. I shut the phone down and rebooted. Camera still did not open. Next, I shutdown the phone and removed the battery. After a few moments, I reinstalled the battery and rebooted. The camera still would not open. I had to do other work, so I just set the phone aside for a few hours. When I came back, I tried the camera again and after a short pause it opened, but not as smoothly as in the past. It is still not opening as it should. First it displays a very quick view of the desktop with an error message. It goes too fast for me to read and then it opens the camera app.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem with the default browser on my HTC Desire where it will stop loading web pages (or not load them at all) even when I have a H connection or 3G connection. All other programs seem to be able to connect via h/3G fine i.e. Market, Opera Mini, GMail etc...
I tried this morning on the following sites:
Twitter
Latest news, comment and reviews from the Guardian | guardian.co.uk
Wikipedia
And none would open. The little green bar gets stuck about 3mm in. I have a H showing in the status bar. When I first loaded the browsed and went to HTC - Mobile Phones, Smartphones, Cell Phones, PDAs this worked fine. However, this has also stopped loading as I type. EDIT: ww.htc.com now working (3 minutes later), Google is working, but still none of the above mentioned sites..
I am in Manchester UK and am on 3. I have been on 3 for quite a few years and have never had a problem with connecting in Manchester. I don't think it is a carrier problem as I am able to connect to the internet with other programs as already mentioned. Also, all the above mentioned sites open fine when I use WiFi.
It was mentioned on the other thread that someone has informed 3UK of the problem and they have informed HTC, but if any other people are having the same problem please detail it here and inform your carrier and HTC.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an Activity that was created based on the TriangleRenderer example. It works flawlessly as a standalone project, but when I use it as the tab of a tabhost there is a problem. At startup the whole activity is just black - I can get touch events and do everything else but it doesnt show anything. When I change the orientation (and therefore recreate the activity) it all works well. Maybe the problem comes from the View focus. My SurfaceView is not focused when created inside of the tabhost. I tried to fiddle around with the methods available in my onCreate() and onPostCreate(), but couldnt find a way to get the SurfaceView focused. The following sourcecode blocks in the guardedRun() method because needToWait() is true because !mHasFocus is true. If I exclude the ! mHasFocus, it goes on but shows a black View anyways. Do you have any idea why it does work after orientation change, but not at the first startup? The Activity looks quite simple.
