I have one problem. The default number I set for some of my contacts keeps resetting. The check that shows which number is default disappears after awhile. I've mistakenly called the wrong number (ie someone's home instead of mobile number) a few times now. Anyone else experiencing this or...

I have a 2010 Toyota Prius. So I'm going to spend my free time researching and complaining about 1997 Ford Escorts on message boards. Makes perfect sense right?

Transparent Google news & weather genie widget at the bottom. Fancy widget on top, with links to Google search, calendar, weather app, & alarm in it. I like to keep the main home screen clean.

Nova Prime. The sole function that I need that really sets it apart is pressing the home button (instead of holding it down) to see recent apps. That's my workaround for the lack of a dedicated recent apps button which really bothers me.

Is it not showing up at all in Google Listen? Or is there another problem? I find it easier to manage and subscribe to podcasts through Google Reader on my computer. Your Google Listen subscriptions are in their own folder in your Reader account.

I'm glad to help! I just wish the buttons were on a customizable 4x1 widget like you described for a neater, more unified look on the homescreen.

Media Buttons does exactly what you want. It's just a basic set of controls (play/pause, previous/next, etc) that controls whatever app is currently playing. I use it for Google Listen and Google Music. I assume it will work for many other audio apps.

Thanks, I'll give this a try. That's a short window of time to adjust the volume, especially when I'm driving!

Have you read the title or the OP or any of the replies here? We're talking about how to change it.

I agree it would make more sense to offfset them.

Same here. I was using Winamp then when the nav voice interrupted it was barely audible. I turned the volume up and then when the music kicked back in I nearly blew out my speakers. I switched back to Google Play Music after the update and tested it out. It seems like the volume of the 2...

Agreed. Knowing Verizon we'll get it last among all US carriers. I'm not getting my hopes up.

That's what I did -set it to recent apps- and it kind gives you the double tap effect in a roundabout way. If you are in the middle of an app, like using a browser, then you press once and it goes to the home screen. The 2nd tap brings up the recent apps. The S3 is so fast that if you do a...

Typically 90% of the calls I make are to people in my favorites list. So whenever I use the phone I'd rather have it start w/ my favorites list rather than the dial pad. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks for the tips! I tried both Shush! and the Simple Sound Profile Widget and opted for the widget. Works as expected. I just wish I didn't have to install something extra just for muting my phone properly...
