Samsung Galaxy S 2.2 Update Pages Won't Delete

My phone just updated to Froyo 2.2, and I can't get rid of the seven (! 7! 7!) pages it installed. They are an affront to my eyes, my battery life, boring, unnecessary, and taking away control of my phone. I may be overly upset about this.
I've tried clicking on "edit page", and then all seven of them come up at once, but clicking the "remove" button at the bottom does nothing. I can change the homepage, but that's it. If I'm stuck with these pages, I may cry.
Please help me figure out what I'm not doing right.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm trying Launcher Pro now. I really appreciate it.
I remain frustrated that Android would make an "option" to remove the pages, and then have it all be a lie. I AM NOT FOOLED BY YOUR OVERTURES OF FREE WILL, ANDROID. NOT FOOLED. NO ONE HERE IS FOOLED.
(Sorry, dude. I just have all these feelings.)
Your welcome and hey everybody needs to vent now and then.

  • Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Not updating

    I am working on provisioning several (3) Samsung Galaxy Tab 4's Model SM-T530, and one of them is not getting the latest system updates. It is stuck at Android 4.4.2, Kernel version 3.4.0-3235464. I have tried manually running the Update now, verified I am online, all that fun stuff.
    This is the WiFi Only version, so it is not dependent on the carrier releasing the update, and the other two that were purchased from the same vendor at the same time, updated just like they were supposed to, and are now at 5.0.2.
    What can i do to troubleshoot this issue? (Logs, check settings, etc)

  • After 10.5.1 update, Pages won't save

    After I installed Leopard, Pages would not save new documents or save new versions of existing documents. It would crash and leave a black outline of the Save window on the desktop, requiring me to Force Quit. I trashed the preferences and repaired permissions and everything went back to normal. However, after updating to 10.5.1 just now, this problem has returned -- and my previous solution no longer works.
    Any ideas?

    Peggy,
    I didn't repair the permissions until I experienced the problems with Pages after the initial installation. After I did this, things worked fine. Like I said, after updating to 10.5.1 yesterday, the problem returned and after repairing permissions didn't get things back to normal, I reinstalled iWork '08.
    Here's something odd. Even though I trashed the entire iWork '08, when I reinstalled, the installer told me that zero space was required to install iWork '08. So maybe there's some other disk issue involved?
    The Repair Disk option is grayed out in Disk Utilities. There's an instruction to run the reapir application from a CD or DVD, but Leopard only has one installation disk and it doesn't have any independently running repair program on it.

  • Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop update problems.

    I was wondering if anyone else is having problems with their Note 4 after upgrading to Lollipop. Since doing so a few weeks ago my phone is freezing/ slow to respond/ going blank screen/ slow to open apps etc. I have just been on to the "tech" help desk who were no help, were not aware of any problems with the update. Yet when I went into an EE shop last week to enquire when a future update would be issued I was informed EE were aware of problems and were working on a fix! I was informed by the help desk to do a factory reset which maybe a last option although time connsuming, I just feel like throwing my phone against a wall it is so slow, prior to the update the Note 4 was super fast. Other advice from help desk was to contact Samsung, my understanding is it is a network problem for EE to address after their tweeks to Lollipop. Any advice much appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply brendonx. I take your point but I have done major updates with previous versions of Android and never had to do a factory reset!

  • Pages Won't Delete or Open Documents in iPhone 5

    I have the Pages App on my iPhone. Haven't use it in over year. Launched it. Found two documents I no longer need. Went to edit to delete. Held down one documents  I wanted to delete started to jiggle, but the trash can did not turn from ghost to alive, and no dialogue box came up asking me if I wanted to delete the documents. Works fine on my iPad. Can't find help because no document opens. Imported a document with my iphone attached to itunes. That opened, but not the two already on the interface from a year ago.  Any help greatly appreciated.

    1. I always update, backup, and everything else petaining to my iPhone via iTunes. I see the steps.
    2. The Pages App might work, as indeed I imported, added, sync, whatever a document from from Documents.
    3. It opened, and worked normally. Deleted normally. Trash can luminated.
    4. My current problem is this: on the interface of Pages are two documents. I can't open them nor can I delete those documents when I press Edit. They giggle, but the trash basket does not illuminate. Since I can not delete one document I really want to open (called Acting Actions)  I went back and  did the add to sequence with the iPhone, highlighting the Pages App. and "adding to" the document Acting Actions I want to open, but can't delete. It did not make the transfer, because I think it realizes that document Acting Action is already on the interface or been imported, therefore
    5. I really want to delete those documents, so I make a new transfer.
    As to the App Store. I can't see updates in the lower right. If I open the App Store from my dock, I see Updates on top, and that's where it says I can't install Pages unless I upgrade to Maverick.
    Lastly, remember Pages current works in the iPhone, via importing a new document. I just don't undersand why these two documents sitting on that interface won't open or delete.  Thanks again.

  • After 10.8.3 update, mail won't delete

    I completed the 10.8.3 update this morning. Now when I click to delete mail messages, instead of deleting, mail jumps to highlight another message seven places away.
    Does anyone know why this is happening and how to correct it?
    Thanks.

    Strange! I quit Mail, then reopened it, and delete works as it should. Whatever was malfunctioning has cleared up by re-opening Mail. I'm glad.

  • Firefox Crashes on Samsung galaxy note 8 after latest update

    I just updated to the Latest version of Firefox on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8. Firefox now won't start and I keep getting 'Firefox has closed' messages, two messages follow one another and then the same happens every 5 to 10 minutes. As far as I know Firefox isn't even running. It's quite annoying as it keeps interrupting so am considering uninstalling until this is fixed.

    Type about:crashes into the url bar, and copy the crash id's here.
    you can also try uninstalling and reinstalling firefox

  • Samsung Galaxy III software update.

    My phone is asking me to update the Samsung Galaxy III for software updates. Should I do this or is it a spam?

    After the update, I spent an hour an hour or two setting all my ringtones back to the way they were before the update, turning my notification tones back on, turning off the camera flash when my phone rings, etc.  What a pain that was.  But my bluetooth was still flaky.
    So after researching the forums, I found this "quick and easy" solution which seemed to have worked:
    TrumpetWarrior Jan 8, 2014 2:27 PM (in response to Incredible-vzw)
    OK, I fixed mine, and thought I would post to everyone interested.
    I have a Samsung GS3, and got the update 2 days ago. The update reset several things I didn't notice before, like I had to download and install swift key, and some other apps, but nevertheless, this is what I did.
    On the GS3 Phone:
    1) Settings > About Phone > Device Name and changed the name of my phone back to the name I like to use. This will show up on the car (Sync) as the BT device. My wife and I have the same phone and cannot tell the difference if they are both the same name. The update had changed it back to the default name.
    2) Settings > Bluetooth , While the BT is turned on, click on the Sync setting icon on the right and pick Un-pair the sync device,
    3) Turn off BT, and go under Settings > Application Manager. Scroll to the right until you get to "All". Scroll down til you see Bluetooth Share. Force stop, Clear cache and Clear Data.
    4) Shut your phone down, and take the battery out.
    On the Car: I have a Ford Escape 2014 with Sync.
    Basically, you will have to do a factory reset, but on mine, it didn't hurt or lose anything.
    1) Mine was under Settings > System > Factory Reset (May take 5 mins)
    2) Put your phone battery back in and boot up your phone and turn on bluetooth
    3) Once the Ford Sync has booted up, add the device and just follow the instructions on the screen and pair the phone back up. Your phone may prompt you for access to your contacts and to download your contacts. Be sure to click the don't show again and click OK
    Mine works even better than before!! Text messages are coming in again, and the Bluetooth media stereo is working again too. Pandora is awesome over Bluetooth.
    On the Ford Sync, the only thing I had to set back was the Voice command under settings (I like the advanced option so she does not repeat everything I say) , and under the phone settings for my GS3, I turn on 911, and I set the ring tone to text to speech. I like it to announce who is calling rather than the ringer. And that is it!
    You might could get away with less steps, but this is what I did and it was minimal. Better than trying to factory rest your phone or something.
    Good Luck!

  • Photos deleted by mistake - Samsung Galaxy

    Can I undelete photos on my Samsung Galaxy S4 mini ?

        Hi myline2! Unfortunately, deleted photos cannot be recovered if not backed up to the Verizon Cloud http://vz.to/14QbP0I or Google  as indicated by Ann154 (thanks). Consider the Verizon Cloud to keep a safe copy of all your precious memories.

  • Samsung Galaxy Nexus Android 4.2 Update

    When will Verizon approve the Android 4.2 update for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus?  The slowness of Verizon to approve updates is inexcusable!  And to that I'll say, "I'm done!"  I am so disgusted with Verizon and their inability to provide updates to what is supposed to be a "Nexus" device.  It's not like they have to manipulate around manufacturer software.  It's pure Google operating system.  Load and test the drivers for CDMA and LTE and then launch the update.  At the MOST that should take no more than 2 weeks!  Since I have had my Nexus on Verizon, I have not recieved a single update prior to 2 months!  Android 4.2 update from Android 4.1 is so miniscule and, might I add, required no additional new drivers, so what is the hold up Verizon?  Where is the Android 4.2 update?  And, yeah, I know some techy out there is going to say, " well why don't you just jailbreak and load it yourself?"  Because I shouldn't HAVE to jailbreak my phone.  It's not a matter of can I do it, it's why can't I do it without jailbreaking from Verizon?  They sold this phone initially by claiming it to be a "pure Nexus" device and it's been nothing of the kind ever since!  So I say, "I'm done!"  That means that when my contract is up, I'm return to AT&T!  They have upgraded the towers in the area that I live and my friends on AT&T say their signals are even better than Verizon's.  AT&T's new LTE towers download at faster speeds than Verizon's too.  I would have happily stayed with Verizon if they would have only taken the Pure Nexus experience seriously!
    To those who have stated that I've said this for Jelly Bean 4.1, you are correct!  The only reason I'm still here is because of the hefty penalty Verizon will charge me for terminating my contract early.  My contract doesn't expire until December 2013 so it would be a rather hefty penalty to pay.  But Android 4.2 has confirmed that Verizon refuses to change their position on slow updates, so when my contract is up (as I believe I stated on 4.1), you won't see REDNIBKRAM on Verizon anymore! 
    It appears as though the Verizon "love freaks" just can't seem to get the message.  I'm not saying that the updates aren't difficult, I'm saying that if Verizon chooses to use CDMA technology over GSM and that requires them to jump through hoops to get updates completed, then they should have NEVER agreed to carry a "pure Nexus" device, or at the very least, should have NEVER advertised the device as such.  My whole point is that Verizon LIED TO ME and told me that my phone was a "pure Nexus" device when I purchased it and switched from a GSM phone company (AT&T) when, in fact, they knew that I would NOT be getting updates directly from Google as the GSM versions of the SGN do.  At the very least, if Verizon really wanted to make this right, they would offer to allow anyone with a SGN phone who was lied to when they purchased it to exit from their existing contract without penalty, so we can purchase a "TRUELY PURE NEXUS" phone direct from Google or provide us with a choice of another phone (Windows Phone, iPhone, etc.) without having to renew a 2 year contract. 
    All I'm saying is that if Verizon won't or can't update the phones they themselves advertised as a "pure Nexus" phone, then they should make it right to the people they lied to.

    I didn't go back to AT&T for JB in August because the of VERY HEFTY penalty I will have to pay for cancelling my contract early and I got the Android 4.1 JB update.  Once I received the update and because the the penalty, I decided to give BIGRED another change at the next update.  I thought, "maybe it was such a huge update that they really needed to make sure everything was done right."  So, now here we are waiting for the 4.2.1 update and I'm still getting the same response from BIGRED as I got for JB 4.0 update.  It's quite clear that VZ DOESN'T CARE about customer satisfaction.  They use the excuse that they want their network to be the best and they want their phones to operate with little or no problems, yet when problems ARE discovered, it takes them months to send out the updates that Google has already released months prior.  I have discussed updates with Verizon, Google and Samsung support personnel.  I have even contacted Verizon Corporate and I fully understand the process by which updates are done, and believe me when I say that the update process at VZ is in serious need of restructuring.  Especially when it comes to Android devices.  But as far as this Android 4.2.1 update is concerned, I have spoken with Google and they have informed me that there was NO changes made to the operating system that would affect the CDMA or LTE drivers on the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus, so there should be no reason why Verizon would not want to release the update.  The small changes (additions) to the operating system would in no way affect the communications on VZ.  So why hasn't VZ released this update yet.  Corporate says they need to test the software to ensure it doesn't affect communications on their network, yet Google hasn't changed anything in the operating system that would, so what are they testing?  VZ may have the better network, but CARRIER EXPERIENCE ISN'T ALL ABOUT THE BEST CONNECTION.  It's about customer SATISFACTION and not receiving updates on a pure NEXUS device in a timely manner is inexcusable and in NO WAY SATISFYING!  So when my contract is up, I will be returning to AT&T or giving T-Mobile a try on a pure Nexus device with no contract!

  • Software Update Page for the Galaxy S4

    Has anyone noticed that on Verizon's Software Update Page for the Galaxy S4 it is displaying update I545VRUDMI1? We are currently at update I545VRUEMK2 which is two updates after the one that they have on the Software Update Page.

    Probably not for a while since they are talking up the S5 having 4.4 and the S3 and S4 not. Trying to screw us over some more.

  • HP Pavilion Desitop & Samsung Galaxy s3 Phone won't pair

    My HP Pavilion Elite-HPE-4801t Windows7 and my Samsung Galaxy s3 os v.4.3 will not pair using bluetooth.  All devices are up to date with software, drivers and updates.
    I am also using a Netgear WIND4500 Wireless Router for my home network and I can see both devices on the network and both have internet access.
    From my HP desktop I can go to devices and select [add device] which then finds my Samsung Galaxy s3. After selecting device and clicking next..my S3 receives a message showing a pairing code.  After choosing [ok] and a few minutes I receive a msg on the phone "Confirm passkey xxxxxx [yes][no]" & selecting [yes] i receive a "Error Unable to pair with xxxx-HP. Incorrect PIN or password."
    From my Galaxy S3 phone can go to bluetooth settings [available devices] which shows my HP desktop name..when I select I get "Bluetooth pairing request" "Confirm passkey is xxxxxx to pair with the HP desktop [cancel][ok]. I select [ok] and it shows "Pairing..." the I get the Error msg 'Unable to pair with xxxx-HP. Incorrect PIN or password"
    The s3 & s4 do not allow you to manually enter the PIN or passcode.  It's automatic [cancel] or [ok] only so I cannot confirm if the pairing passcode is the same on both devices.  What's up with that?
    I have tried everything I have read in the HP, Samsung, Internet forums.
    Shut down both systems
    Uninstalled & reinstalled drivers both bluetooth & phone
    Checked firewall including disabling antivirus & firewall.
    It appears to me that the:
    HP desktop sees the Samsung s3 phone and the
    Samsung s3 sees the HP desktop
    I have unpaired all other wireless devices, cleared cache and data with no luck
    They just won't pair to each other. 
    PS.
    I have also tried to pair my Samsung s4 phone with the same results.
    I can connect a USB cable and with a little tweaking can transfer files both ways.
    I can also auto connect with my Motorola "Roadster" bluetooth hands-free car speaker and I can connect the s3 to any of serveral bluetooth wireless speakers I have. ie; Motorola, Creative, etc.
    I also have a Samsung inFuse phone and have no problem pairing the HP and inFuse using bluetooth.
    I have not solved this problem nor have I seen a solution since I first got the Galaxy s3 & s4 phones. At this point I have to either "live with it" or "no mas"
    Sorry this post is so long...it is my history of flustration with bluetooth phone pairing.
    Anybody out there got a fix???????

    Hi,
    Samsung has stopped at one point the distribution for android 4.3 to many international countries.  There were many problems and some were Bluetooth related.  I can't say the Bluetooth problems are the same as what you are experiencing.  See this post.
    I have paired my S3 with Windows Windows 7 and 8 and I do remember having to enter the passkey (auto generated) at least once to set up the initial parring.  I am on android 4.1.2.
    You might try uninstalling Samsung Kies and the S3 drivers and then reinstall.  Try the latest drivers from the Samsung site if necessary.
    Be sure that your PC is using the same Bluetooth level as your android 4.3. supports.
