Data usage AND Browser Back Button?

1. How accurate is the data tracker? I call DATA from my phone and get the usage via text, and check the Verizon site and they are both the same, HOW accurate are they? In other words, am I getting a surprise at the end of the month?
I have used 1.2mb out of 75mb.
2. Is there a back button for the browser besides the touch one? Like a physical button or button sequence?
Thanks all!

The data information on My Verizon and #DATA refreshes within 45 minutes of the data transaction. In some cases, it may be delayed over 24 hours due to system delays.
Thank you, LatachaM_VZW

Ctrl+F5 and Browser Back Button

I have read many posts about these issues, but did not reach to any result.
I realize that they are a kind of validation, but how can we work around them?
I have tried to set "EnableTokenValidation" property in the page definition to false, but this causes more problems, since instead of "Creation/Insert" mode, the page appears to be in an "Update" mode.
It came upon my mind to hide browser's tool bars, but I am not sure for this...
So, please, does anyone have reached a solution, or even any recommendations?
Thanx in advance

Hi,
you are tackling two issues here:
1 - page refresh
2 - browser back button
Both are typical JavaEE issues
1 - If you submitted a page then a refresh will not bring it back into createInsert mode. If you want it to get back into CreateInsert mode, set an invokeAction on the executableSection of the binding to invoke CreateInsert on any page request
2 - The recommended way of doing this - described as a pattern in J2EE - is a dejavu token that allows you to detect duplicate requests. The best solution I saw working though is a piece of JavaScript that on the client side deleted the browser history. This way the browser back button became non-functional

Browser Back Button x Stale Data

Hi,
I'm facing a weird issue with back button handling.. whenever two sessions of the browser are opened to access the Oracle Applications, when changing something in one session, moving to the other session to change another thing and come back to the first session, even for completely different products and responsibilities, it gives me the stale data error as below. It seems like the session has been invalidated since I'm sure I haven't use the browser back button.
Is this an expected behavior?
++Error: Cannot Display Page++
++You cannot complete this task because you accessed this page using the browser's navigation buttons (the browser Back button, for example).++
++To proceed, please select the Home link at the top of the application page to return to the main menu. Then, access this page again using the application's navigation controls (menu, links, and so on) instead of using the browser's navigation controls like Back and Forward.++
Thanks,
Eduardo

Yes,that is the expected behaviour. In oaf http session is synchronised with the clicks, so on same desktop if u open two different apps sessions you will face the error, which ur facing now.

Form field validation: All required data lost when clicking browser-back-button!

Hi folks,
I have a big problem using the validation text field components of Spry when the user must click the browser back button (or clicking a history.back()-Link) because he has entered a wrong CAPTCHA-code!
Right now, all the data - only in the required fields - not in the optional fields!!! - is lost and the user has to enter all data once again;-(
Does anybody know why only the data in the required fields is lost? Is there a nice workaround?
I really appreciate a quick answer:-)
Kind regards from cloudy Germany
Thomas

rememberFormInputs('frmlogin', 'input-');
'frmlogin' should be the id of page, not the name. so on your <form> tag, add the id="frmlogin"
remove the
// overload alert
function alert(str) {
     var el = document.getElementById('alert');
     if (el) {
          el.value += str+"\r\n";
Its really bad practice to overwrite the alert. and inside the rememberFormInputs remove these lines:
alert('old value remembered: '+old_value);
alert('setCookie: '+name + ' = '+value);
and it should work

Browser Back Button and form navigation

Some times when you use browser back button and adf-taskflow navigation buttons, validation on form fails, witout having made any change even with enabled token validation.
Reproduction steps on HR schema:
1. Create QueryDepartment and EditDepartment Views and navigation rules in adfc-config.xml
2 Create ADF view only table page for QueryDepartment selectable, and add navigation button to go to EditDepartment
3. Create EditDepartment form with navigation buttons and button to navigate back to QueryDepartment
test:
1.Run QueryDepartment and select a department
2.Go to Edit Department using navigation button
3.Navigate to next department pressing the 'Next' button
4.Navigate back using the Browser Back button.
5.Try to navigate back to QueryDepartment using the navigation button.
My result is validation error on DepartmentId field 'Error: JBO-25013: '
Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Hi,
maybe I don't get it, but as I understood you have problem with focus on select button. So why don’t you set focus onLoad on another element of your page?
Something like onload=”$x(‘ELEMENT_NAME’).focus()”;

Reporting Services add (browser) back button

Dear all,
I have a client that has 4 reports; 1 main, and 3 that are rendered when the user clicks the report data on the main report (which passes parameters to generate the other 3).
They would like to have a back button in the report header of the 3 reports (they don't want to use the browser back button).
Is this possible using a text box, then editing the navigation properties and does anyone have an example? Or am I missing something quite obvious?
Any help would be gratefully received!!

IE and the back-button

Hi all...
I've used JHeadstart 10.1.2 to build a fairly simple UIX based web application. This application is completely a read-only view of some data, layed out as master-detail-detail over a few screens.
As such, I followed the directions in the JHeadstart Dev Guide to disable back-button protection, since my application didn't need to be protected against misuse of the browser back button.
Everything works fine in Firefox... users can query the master screen and drilled into details, and use the browser back button to back out of the details to the master page.
However, IE does not like this at all. It intercepts this back-button use with pages that employ POST form submissions by throwing the following rendering when navigating back up from my app's details pages:
================
Warning: Page has Expired The page you requested was created using information you submitted in a form. This page is no longer available. As a security precaution, Internet Explorer does not automatically resubmit your information for you.
To resubmit your information and view this Web page, click the Refresh button.
================
What kind of mods in my UIX/Struts JHeadstart code can I make in order for IE to accept use of the back-button in this scenario?
I realize I can add breadcrumbs to my application, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the users will use this instead of the back button (especially since the users will be public anonymous Internet users -- training is not an issue)?

Timothy,
If you google on "how to prevent Warning: Page has Expired" you will find lots of useful links. You nee dto set your caching policy on the http header. You can do this by overriding JhsActionServlet.process, and register your custom action servlet in web.xml.
You can add calls like this to set caching strategies:
response.addHeader("Cache-Control", "max-age=3600");
response.addHeader("Cache-Control", "private");
Google on "response.setHeader" or reponse.addHeader for more examples.

Browser back button not working with ADF Application integrated with SSO

I have integrated an adf application with Oracle SSO Authentication. Application is running fine.
Though, while navigating between pages, using browser back button , it is not redirecting the url properly
Should Redirect it to : http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>/<servlet>/<id>
Presently Redirecting it to :http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>
As, directory browsing is not allowed, there is Error 403--Forbidden .
Can anybody tell what changes needs to be made to make browser back button work.

In some of the documentation I have read, they have mentioned that using the back button in a browser doesn't work too well with any JSF type of application (not just ADF and Jdeveloper apps).
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/web.1111/b31974/web_form.htm#CFHHJGJH
Instead, they suggest using buttons on the form.
There is a video on using navigation between forms that may be of value: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsPtmRID5XI&feature=plcp

Data usage and battery drain has skyrocketed with iOS 8.1.2 (maybe earlier)

3 weeks ago my wife got a text message on her iPhone 5 from AT&T that she had used 90% of her data for the month. 30 seconds later, she got another one saying that she had used 100%. Granted, her data plan is small, 200 MB. But, for the last two years she has used as little as 17 MB in a month and her largest prior to this latest month was 49 mb. This month she got to 380 mb before we were able to shut off her cell data. Otherwise, a second chunk of 200 MB and another $15 would have been added to the month.
We had noticed that her battery had been draining rather rapidly in standby mode with no background apps running when she didn't have access to WiFi. We have now correlated the two results, High Cell data usage, Quick battery drain and very warm phone. In case anyone is wondering about her iPhone 5 being one in the recall, it is. I took it in and had it tested. Apple says the battery is fine. It does hold a charge well. When all network communications are shut down on her phone and it is in standby mode, there is no noticeable loss of charge in 24 hours (our longest test).
Since I have a grandfathered Unlimited Data Plan with AT&T, I have been doing some testing on my iPhone 5s. Sure enough, I've seen similar results. With nearly everything turned off except Cell Data, I've seen 483 MB used in 24 hours. Of that total, 479 MB was used for Documents & Sync. I even have everything turned off in my iCloud account, Location services are turned off, no push notifications etc...
The best I can figure, this has been a problem since we installed 8.1.2 and yesterday I installed 8.1.3 resulting in no positive effect on this issue.
At this rate of data usage and no access to WiFi, my wife would have to have a 15 Gb data plan to keep from exceeding her limit. I don't think AT&T even offers one that big anymore. I might have to switch to Sprint or T-Mobile if this doesn't get resolved.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your shared insights.

Hey this is Brian, bjmcmurry, under a different user ID. If I logged in as bmcmurry, original post, I was just getting a server error and couldn't get to this discussion nor post a comment anywhere.
Anyway, let me be as brief as I can. After an extensive analysis of replicating the problem on another phone to eliminate it being a hardware specific issue and that the test phone has an unlimited data plan, I was able to stop the excessive data usage and consequential battery drain. I believe I have a reasonable explanation of the problem, an iOS logic bug.
I had everything under my control clamped down on the test phone to minimize data usage. Also, I was forcing all data usage to use the cell towers. I determined that I was burning at least 11 to 13 Mb per hour doing nothing important. I literally had everything turned off except 'Settings' was allowed to use Cell data providing a avenue to log into the Apple ID.
The two phones had 2 things in common, they were using the same Apple ID and the same version of the OS. One was a iPhone 5 and the other was a 5s.
Here is a synopsis of my experience via my written evaluation of the Apple support system (Apple Rep name's have been removed):
After a couple of hours on the phone with an Apple Care Senior support Analyst, it was suggested that I go to the Apple Store to 1) get my battery replace in the iPhone 5 since it qualified for the replacement program and 2) see if the Genius could provide me with any insight in the data usage issue and battery drain.
I'm certainly glad I had multiple reasons to visit the closest Apple store, a 45 min drive. I got the battery replaced, thanks for that.
Regarding the important issue to me that brought me to the Genius Bar, excessive Cell data usage, I thought the Genius did a wonderful job listening and documenting the problem we were experiencing. Unfortunately, educating us on the use of the product or replacing our phone was not going to solve the problem. He eventually figured it out, this was not a user error or broken hardware. We surmised that the reason I was sent to him was to verify and document that there was a problem. I clearly had a problem. After writing copious notes on the issue, The Genius smartly referred me back the the AppleCare Senior Advisor. So, back to AppleCare Senior Analyst I went. She, knowing this was not a simple problem to solve i.e. beyond her level of expertise, got an Apple Software engineer involved.
My primary frustration is that this should have been escalated to software engineering right away. My trip to see the Genius was, I believe, a waste of time for both me and Apple regarding this issue. Diagnosis of this type of problem is well beyond the Genius’ knowledge and job. The Genius did a very good job doing what he could within the scope of his job. He just couldn’t solve this problem and had no one within Apple to which he had access for help.
However, that initial consult with the engineer was a bit feeble. Not only could I not talk to him/her directly, his/her focus was still working with the ‘Black Box' approach. Having Analyst ask me to do stuff like restore the Phone was more like trying to find a 'work around' than 'identifying the real problem.' Maybe restoring the phone was going to fix some corrupted data on the phone sidesteping the real problem, the handling of this condition. The engineer did listen to the fact that I had restored the test phone, the 5s, and only added the use of my Apple ID. Duh, been there!!!
Having been an previous owner of a software development company that I started in 1980 and retired in 2001, I can tell you that using the 'Black Box' method of debugging is extremely inefficient. Instead, having access to an ‘Activity Manager’ type app to identify in real time what process was blowing up the data flow would have saved me a lost afternoon at the Apple store and hours on the phone with tech support.
Ironically, I may have stumbled onto a "work around" solution short of turning off Cell Data that stopped the excessive Cell Data usage and consequential battery drain. Just prior to leaving the Apple Store, I used one of their Macs to log in my Apple ID on the id.apple.com website to ‘Manage my Apple ID’, I was forced to upgrade the security level of my password. Afterward, my cell data usage seemed to drop dramatically.
I told the AppleCare Senior Analyst that I may have stumbled onto a workaround and I suggested that I give it a couple of days of monitoring. We'd talk then and I would have results to report. She agreed.
Sure enough, my Document & Sync usage was back to normal, about 1/2 Mb per day. Am I happy that the excessive Cell Data usage has stopped? You bet! But, there was no intuitive reason that an end user would know to log in on the ID website to unknowingly solve this problem. As I use to say to my employees, that is not the ‘Macintosh Way.’ And, rebooting the the 'Microsoft Way.'
When I reported my findings to the Analyst, we both concluded that data usage was back to normal. She did report to me that the engineer did provide a laundry list of suggested activities to help solve the problem. Remarkably, they were everything that I had already done and were pretty much what the Analyst and the Genius tried to do. All reasonable tasks. But clearly, the engineer hadn't even ready the notes on the case before responding. And, none of the things suggested would have uncovered the real problem, likely a logic bug in iOS.
My advice now is to have the software engineering team rule out that there was an unresolvable state that a background process was fiercely trying to handle. The iOS does not seem to know how to intervene and prompt the user with a requirement to upgrade their password. If this does end up being the case, I would call it a logic bug, a perpetual exception that is not being handled properly.
Anyway, I hope this helps you.

The browser back button is not working correctly when using the search funtion in ProBoards forums. Is there a known issue with ProBoards & FF?

I have submitted a bug report to ProBoards, but they cannot duplicate the problem I am having, so I am submitting this here in hopes you can find a solution.
At ProBoards Support and another PB forum while doing searches I found this problem, which continues with repeated testing over the past week or so:
url: http://support.proboards.com/search
1. enter perameters for the search (posts only by staff for the last 2 days)
2. choose one of those post results & click on it (choose a post on page 14 and not on page 1 of the results)
3. using the browser back button, attempt to return to the previous page of search results
4. rather than being taken back to the search results with my parameters, the search parameters have been removed and the page show 1000 results of posts by everybody.
I have tested this over and over again, disabling plugins, and nothing seems to alter the malfunctioning of the back button when I am doing this search function at ProBoards.
I have tested it in Internet Explorer and find that in IE the browser back button works properly with ProBoards searches. I always get the result I expect, so it's a problem with how FF interfaces with ProBoards, I think.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.

I open a new webpage in a new tab. I then go to a link and the back button does not allow me to go back to the original webpage. Any suggestions?

I open a new webpage in a new tab. I then go to a link and the back button does not allow me to go back to the original webpage. Any suggestions?

I don't think you understood the question. I am having the exact same issue. I open a link in a new tab or window, for example: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforedrop/
When the new tab opens, I click on "reviews" to open the link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforedrop/#reviews in the existing tab because I want to see the reviews for this feature. After I read the reviews, I want to go back to the main link, but the back button on my browser is greyed out, as though I was never even on the previous page. So my options are 1) Open every link I ever click on in a new tab or window, or 2) Hope the website is user friendly and attempt to navigate back to the previous page using links inserted on the current page.
You never realize how frustrating not having back button is until it happens.

PPR and the Back Button

Hi all,
I posted recently about a workaround Oracle showed me for helping manage back button problems more efficiently, but now I'm having a separate back button problem.
Changes that were made to a page via PPR disappear after coming back to the page by clicking the browser back button--for example, if I added a row to an <af:table> using PPR, navigate off the page, and click the back button, the row will disappear again--although it will reappear as soon as any event re-refreshes the table. I've tried turning off browser chaching, and it makes no difference, which makes me suspect this is not a browser caching issue.
Does anyone know if there's a way to make sure a component is always refreshed when the page is loaded, even if it was loaded via the browser back button?
Thanks much,
Avrom

Hi Frank,
Great idea, thanks! I haven't tried it out in all my cases, but it looks like it's going to work!
For the use of others, here's what you do:
1) Make sure your model layer is capable of supporting the back button here, of course.
2) Create a method, String refresh(), in a backing bean. This method can be a no-op (just return null) if you don't need to do any work to re-set the page. But if, for example, you calculated values referred to in the page, you should re-calculate them here. If you had code that calculated them when the page was originally loaded (*not* for PPR), you can take that out, because this will always get called on a new load/back button load/reload.
3) Add a CommandLink like this one to your page (needs to be in a form, but otherwise it doesn't really matter where):
<af:commandLink id="refresh" partialSubmit="true"
action="#{yourBean.refresh}"/>4) Add a call to a javascript function like the following in your <afh:body>'s "onload" tag:
function refreshPage() {
    var refreshComp;
    if (document.getElementById)
        refreshComp = document.getElementById("refresh");
    else if (document.all)
        refreshComp = document.all["refresh"];
    else if (document.layers)
        refreshComp = document.layers["refresh"];
    if (refreshComp) {
      refreshComp.click();
}(All of that rigmarole is to support different browsers, which have different ways of retrieving a DOM element by its id.)
5) For each component you need refreshed on a back button, set (or add) "refresh" to its partialTriggers property.
6) Sit back and watch the Back button work.

AVAudioRecorder data usage and sound quality

Alternatively, I can avoid the overage fees by agreeing to change my plan -- increase my monthly allowance -- but I have to pay the difference for all of the months that have already gone by all the way back to the beginning of my contract. In other words, I have to pay for additional GBs for months that are in the past and for which I have no possible way to actually use that data allowance. This is NOT TRUE. You can have the change backdated to the BEGINNING of your CURRENT billing cycle but it WILL NOT go further back than that.
I must say, that as a business model for raking in un-earned revenue, it's pretty impressive. As a customer, though, I'm not terribly impressed.
Does anyone else feel that these practices are just a wee bit unfair, to put it mildly?
I would think that the following would be fair business practices:
(1) If I don't use some GB data allowance, for which I've already paid, then that allowance should roll into the next month OR; Verizon doesn't have roll over minutes and they most likely will not have roll over data.
(2) I should get a refund for data allowance that I don't use. Should you ALSO get a refund for unused minutes while you are at it? I don't watch all of the channels for which my cable company charges me. I would prefer a refund for THOSE before I get a refund for minutes/data from Verizon. I would make a considerably larger refund with that.
(3) Alternatively, since Verizon believes it is OK to charge extremely inflated overage fees, then I feel it's only fair that they refund to me, at that inflated rate, for GBs that I don't use in any given month.
How do the rest of you feel? I feel you should most likely look for a provider which better fits your view on how they should price their service. Good luck.
Sincerely frustrated,
Anton
