I've noticed today that on certain forums, when I tap the previous button to go back a page ("<"), that only sends me to the top of the current page. I then have to tap it a second time to actually go back one page. Has anyone else noticed this?

I just upgraded to 6.1 today. I set everything up like I had it previously, but there is an issue with the scroll bar on the side of the screen. On 6.0, I had HTC Home installed. The scroll bar did not cover up the edge of this application. The bar started below HTC Home and only affected the items below (like Tasks, Wireless Status, ect...). I've spent about 2 hours trying to figure this out. I'm not getting anywhere. Any ideas? Thanks guys!
I noticed the same thing everytime I close device I open contacts first then close device then close contacts that way it doesnt chop off the HTC Home where the scroll bar was. I have tried several different things in HHC Customizer too, with no change. Once it chops it off the only way to get it back I have to soft reset. Strange Annoying problem.

Thanks! That helped a lot. I dont know why I didn't see that when I was searching.
I had the same problem. I went to the today icon and removed a thing or 2 from the home page and the scroll bar went away. The home page will show only so much without causing you to scroll down.
for me it was the kaiser tweak where it says unlock screen i put it to locked and it worked
So my home screen changed what can I do to fix it? when I tap home it goes to a different screen than it use to. I went into edit and tried to move them around to get the screen I had back to home but did not work. I have a icon on the bottom of one of the screens while in edit that looks like the home button and it stays on that screen no matter what I do. I moved that screen everywhere to far left to far right but it still stays as my home screen. I want my old home screen back Help me please.
I hope I have explained this correctly.....
What launcher are to using?
I am using what ever came on the phone I have not added a launcher
I do not use touch wiz. That is stock. I use launcher pro. Read this, maybe it will shed light
http://androidforums.com/captivate-...64-how-do-you-change-default-home-screen.html
I found that and read it while searching google for help but it did not help me I really did not want to add another launcher to the phone if I don't have to. And I tried all those things.
Thanks
From home, menu -> settings -> applications -> manage applications
Now you may need to hit menu -> filter and select All if you are using the stock launcher TwLauncher.
Find the current launcher select "Clear defaults". The next time you hit home it will prompt you to select a default again.
Thanks this is what I was looking for are to a tech person for this phone or what? I have search everywhere for an answer and have found nothing that is correct. I need your contact info in case I have other question or problems about the phone.
Thanks Again!
No just got my captivate in december. Have a tech background actually with blackberry. If you get stuck again just post here again, there are many helpful forum users.
Hi. I'm having this problem that my home screen button doesn't work like it should. I use 5 panes and one of them is marked as a "home screen" when I'm not I my home screen pane I should be able to quick access to my home page by just hitting the home button. This is how my friends Z1 works and all my previous Android devices for that matter. But for some strange reason my home button doesn't do anything in to home screen or in any other pane. When I hit the home button the screen flashes quickly like it's trying to do something but nothing happens. Otherwise the home button works just like it should long press activated Google now and in other programmes it brings me back to the home screen. So the problem is somewhere in stock launcher.
Has anyone else noticed this and what might be the reason?

Try a different launcher like the excellent kit kat one from the Nex 5, it's been rock solid for me, but that issue you describe does sound weird, maybe a reflash of the rom you're using might do the trick.
Obviously reboot your phone often too, just incase you hadn't.
Problem solved.
I did install / uninstall of another launcher and after that the xperia launcher works like it should.
The hardware return button on my oneplus 3t doesn't do what I want it to do. For instance, I check out an app in google play store, and I look at the pictures. Now I press the home button, then return to the pictures through recent apps. So far so good.
Now I press return again. I expect this to take me back to the app's main play store page, but instead I go back to the home screen. And if I then want to go back to the pictures with the recent button, I end up at the main page instead.
So pressing return does two things: it returns me from viewing pics to the previous page, and it dumps me back at my home screen. Surely, this is not intended behaviour?
Edit: clarification
That must be an OxygenOS thing, as in LineageOS the back key only works as a escape key and never returns you to an app or do anything when your back at the launcher screen.
Edit: Does this happen even if you use another launcher than the Oneplus, like Nova or Apex?

It has to be a oxygen os problem because I have the same problem, cant seem to find a fix yet, started since ob9 and 4.1.6 for me

I just tested it. Nova launcher has the same problem.
Just for clarification: I have 3 buttons, I'll call them Recent, Home and Return (aka back) (I use the Dutch version). Recent lets me switch between the launcher screen and active apps, home puts me back at the launcher screen, and return puts you back to the previous section of the current app (or should, anyway) and does nothing on the launcher screen. I've edited my OP to clarify what buttons I used.
Hello,
Is there a way to adjust the settings so as to rotate from last page directly to first page of my home screen, without having to rotate all the pages back?
Thank you!
It may vary depending upon the launcher or ROM.
I am currently using official DOT OS 2.5 and I can jump directly to first page of home screen by simply single tapping on home button (let it be I am on 2nd,3rd or 4th page)
I think if single tapping on home button isn't working for you then it might be a bug or it's not available on the ROM/ launcher you are using or you might have to set function what capacitive buttons can do in settings.
Check in the settings, settings of launcher if the option is available or try using different launcher.
Usually it should work without doing any settings but if it isn't you'll have to search for it's settings.
