How do I set a default application that gets used without enquiry?
Say I've got that app that allows me to make phone calls over my private WiFi network (FRITZ!App Fon if that matters). Every time I'm going to make a call, Android asks me which application to use: the (system) phone app or the FRITZ! app. Usually, it's no problem to pick one of the two, but it is problematic when driv...

Android G2 touchscreen is left-right reversed
The touch screen on my Android G2 is suddenly reversed. I touch an icon on one side of the screen and an icon on the opposite side is selected.

Pinch-zoom not pure zoom in Web browser on HTC Desire Z because text is auto-re-formatted: irritating / layouts break
When I (multi-touch) pinch to zoom and release my fingers from touching the screen to see the zoomed display, the Android web browser on the HTC Desire Z performs a shrink-to-fit re-format of the page (or a block of text). This re-formatting is unsatisfactory because: * the original page layout is not retained, for e...

Why Dialer shows contact name and image, when contact is not in my address book?
Very often, when some unknown company is calling me, in couple of seconds I see its name and logo on standard Dialer's screen. Where does it take them, if I don't have this contact in my address book, nor do I have it in contacts in any social network, like FB, LinkedIn, etc? Does it search Google right at the moment o...

Spontaneous reset with complete loss of all personal data and settings
Yesterday my LG G2, running Android 4.2.2, spontaneously rebooted, and it showed the welcome wizard applications that you use when activating your phone for the first time. After skipping most of the set-up, thinking that this was just a quirk coincidence, I noticed that all of my personal data (contacts, settings, ima...
