    Hey guys,

    I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7" Tablet. The problem I'm having has to do with the "recent" button. (That's the button to the left of the Home button). When I launch apps, such as Wolfram Alpha, and press the Recent button, the tablet goes into double window mode. It's supposed to bring up a sub menu in the app. It does this with all other apps as well. I've contacted Samsung tech support and all of the agents told me that I had to reset the tablet to factory default settings. I'm reluctant to do that...

    Has anyone encountered this problem? If so, please tell me how you resolved it.

    Cheers,

    grecinos

    If the back button problem is only happening in that game, it sounds like a incompatibility with the S2, you should see if someone else with an S2 and playing the same game is having the same problem.

    If you do not want to do a reset, have a look at the S2 forum below, register and post your problem.
