Just couple of hours ago, 90% of articles in the Briefing app started showing up in Indonesian language?? This also happened on wife's S6 Edge. Very bizarre. Has Flipboard been hacked? There does not seem to be any way of changing or removing the articles. Anyone else started seeing this?
The same thing just happened to me.
Oh good, it's not just me. I was getting weirded out for a moment. Reboot and it didn't change so I Googled "Briefing app in indonesian" and found this thread. Haha

I have no idea what's going on, but I tried accessing Google Play on my Note just now, only to find out that it has been uninstalled!? Before anyone asks...No, I did not install/uninstall anything from the last time I accessed Google Play (which was earlier today). All I know is that the app updated itself automatically the other day, and everything seemed fine. But now, it has somehow uninstalled itself automatically. WTF???
Am I nuts (could be a possibility ), or has this happened to anyone else too?? The weird part is that the 'Google Play' icon is still on my home screen, but when I press the application button in the bottom right corner, it's not there.
EDIT: I just rebooted my Note, and now the icon is gone in both places.
EDIT #2: This is flat out strange...the 'Play Books' app was still working, so I opened it up and pressed the icon to access Google Play. There was a long wait, but lo and behold, Google Play eventually opened up as mysteriously as it had disappeared! Very, very weird...
I don't know how in the world this happened (or why), but since the app has come back, I guess the problem pretty much solved itself. I'd delete this thread if I could, but since I can't I apologize for wasting everybody's time.
I noted something similar on another thread. I think the rollout was badly designed and poorly executed. Both my Note and my tablet had almost the same things as you describe, but in different ways on each, with no explanations.
Same here too. Just because the name is ****ty doesn't mean the rollout has to be too.

Hello All!
Several months ago, when I upgraded to my Galaxy Note 3, I was disgusted by the new 'Hangouts' app that google had forced on me. I promptly rooted, uninstalled it, and found an old .apk for the older Talk app that Hangouts replaced. It worked well enough for a while, but one day several weeks ago the app simply lost its ability to sign in. I'm desperate for a solution to this problem that does NOT involve installing Hangouts. When I try to sign in to Talk, I get a spinning wheel that spins forever.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Check out "Google Voice"

Hey all, I flashed the factory image last night and rooted again. Restores apps from TiBu and noticed some widgets are missing.
I uninstalled the apps and reinstalled them from the market and they are still missing.
I'm wondering if anyone else is going through a similar issue or if I had a bad factory image.
Apps/widget:
-TV Show Favs
-Any.do
Would someone please download any.do and see if the widget is even available? They don't even show up as an option for me....
I saw a thread yesterday where people were saying that some widgets disappeared but then after the phone sat for a few hours they magically came back.

Yep, exactly right. Either it took a half-dozen reboots, or crossing midnight, or some initial process after a rebuild that takes a long time. Not sure what, but after 6 hours or so, all the widgets that were missing from the list suddenly appeared for me.
Well I wanted to help you out sooner but I had to wait for the moon to get in the right phase before spinning a chicken over my head.
Glad you got it worked out.

I had the same issue. Some widgets I couldn't get back no matter what I did yesterday. Woke up this morning and they were magically on my homescreen as if they had never been missing.
Hi guys, tried to search the forum before posting and not quite sure if its a Samsung ROM thing or an Android thing, or just a "Stupid me" thing. For a few days now I am noticing a strange event that occurs every 30 minutes passed round hour on an hourly basis, I captured a video clip of it and attached here.
It is getting very annoying and I cant find the root cause for the issue.
phone is Note9, unrooted, only official apps from store are installed and I downloaded Kaspersky AV but didnt find any malware/virus.
I would love to hear if anyone has any idea what this might be or a good way of finding the cause.
Thanks !
Are you talking about how that white screen comes up for a moment and then disappears?

Did I not see this app all along or was it recently pushed out to Pixel 5. For some reason, today I started getting numerous alerts from it.
I hate that kind of junkware. That one looks pretty invasive.
Just disable it. Problem solved
