[Q] Display going bad or...? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Last night I noticed this in top right corner of my sgs but it's only in task manager. In menu or other apps there isn't this thing or I don't know how to call it. I'm sure that few days ago everything was fine.

Thats telling you that there are more options along the top menu bar! Swipe with your finger to drag the bar over and reveal them!

great question....anyone???
Wisbar advance can do this and is what i use. You can hide the softkey buttons and also customise the app bar at the bottom of the screen - ie remove it or add shortcut icons to applications. Software is not fre but allows alot of customisation.
For the price, $10, I think everyone should buy Wisbar Advanced. I've been using it since I bought a Wizard and love it. It cleans up the icons and fonts on the menus and adds a lot of options.

Well I got the 14 day trial to try it out, and I can not find anywhere to remove the bottom take programs, am I just blind or dumb?

Settings, then softkeys, then click "hide the SoftKey bar"
Try todayshrink
dcinobar
This removes the softkey bar from the today screen.
No I don't mean the soft key bar. Look the the image I posted its in the red box. It is the battery and the comm icon.

CM7 app icon is gone

So I just got CM7 running on my SD card and was loading Netflix when I noticed that the icon with 4 boxed that lets u view your apps that is located in the small 3 icon tool bar thing at the bottom of the screen is gone. Is there another way to get to my apps or some way to get back the icon.
You might try hitting menu on the home screenm-->settings-->ADWLauncher-->Reset ADW
Just a shot in the dark here, but I'm guessing that will fix it.
Also in the menu you can go to general behavior-->Swipe up action and swipe down action, which will allow you to set what happens when you swipe up or down on the homescreen. Personally, I don't even use the 3 little icons, I just have swiping down display the app drawer.

On the Home screen, tap and hold on the empty space to bring up "Add to Home screen" window, then tap the "Launcher Actions" then select "Open/close App Drawer". It will bring the icon back on your Home screen, from there, you can drag it back to one of the 3 boxes on the Dock bar.
I kept having to reset it and got tired of that so I deleted the bar and put the icon on the screen itself. It hasn't disappeared yet since doing that.

It does not "disappear", you're removing it. Put it back and select "Lock desktop". You'll have to unlock when you want to change stuff on the desktop.

Pull down menu directly into settings

hey, in most other KK roms you have an option that the pull down menu goes immidiatly to settings if pulled from the right.
in sony FW it's only available if you use two fingers, but using the right corner of the screen is far more comftarble than two fingers, did anyone found out how and if this can be changed? i tried gravitybox for KK and it didn't work...
Thanks for the 2 finger mention, I didn't know that and I really like it.
In response to your question, gravity box does not work on 4.4 anyway (Breaks volume buttons) and it is unlikely to be fixed by the dev of GB.
I am sure there is a mod for it in the Home.apk, someone will look into it.
If you pull down from the right side of the screen you'll go the quick settings right away, if you pull from the left it goes to the notifications.
You have to put your finger on the screen right away, not pull down from the bezel down (in that case it works if you pause when the pulldown menu starts showing. The 'glow' initially is at notifications but goes to 'quick settings' after a very short time. Then continue the pulldown.
But as mentioned if you start the pulldown on the top of the screen itself you'll immediately see the glow at the quicksettings if you start at the right.
Hope this is clear
ps. sucky about gravitybox messing up the volume buttons btw, hadn't noticed that yet but you're right. Launcher crashes :/ Too bad as I use various mods of it (rescaling navigation bar, advanced power menu...). Hope a fix will be there soon.

Use Xblast module for those mods, they work fine

Hmmm, that's strange... Works fine here. I'll see if I can make a screencapture-vid to clear it up a bit.
Xblast works fine indeed btw, thanks for the tip!

That's also my idea. Until I have installed Xposed it worked that way. Now with Xposed it doesn't. But if you keep your finger on top of the battery while sliding down you are able to switch while sliding down. Got to get used to it.
This works for me
Just pause until the 'Quick settings' tab goes white (is selected) and then continue to slide down.

That was indeed part of what I was trying to say, but in my case it immediately goes white/selected (and thus to the quick settings) when I start swiping from the statusbar on the right side of the screen (not completely right, say where the 'quick settings' words are)..

You are right - it changes very fast and after a few tries you are able to almost in one swipe.

I would prefer to have left-right drag down for notifications-quickmenu like the way my Nexus 7 works.

Question about Chrome gesture?

So I'm not sure it was a gesture or if it's even limited to Chrome. But I was messing around with the screenshot gesture and my chrome turned into a small window. It had a little bar across the top you could close completely, or full screen, and even the dots to resize the window.
How do I use this again? I can't figure out how to make it work again.. lol.
Thanks!

I believe what you're looking for is dragging down from the top left or right corner. This should shrink down the app you're looking at where you can then go back to full screen mode, move around the shrunken size, or pop it into a bubble form.

Bottom corner homescreen animation, realme UI

Hi, I found this new little animation on both bottom corner everytime I went to homescreen. This is on the new realme UI, so I figured it is a new animation however I have no Idea what it represents. Does anyone here know and could help me out? I'm trying to find a way to turn off this animation
It's to activate Google assistant. Just slide from the bottom corner to the center ...
If someone knows how to deactivate that'll be great.
Settings, click the search bar and type default app, click assist app then select none and the 2 bottom rounded corners disappear.

If you want the animations in the bottom corner for the GA disappear whenever you go to the home screen, just follow this simple guide. Worked for me and it's very simple.
