Guys,
I have recently started to have an issue with pulling the Notification Bar down.
Occasionally (and for no apparent reason) when I attempt to pull down the window it opens just a fraction with only the bottom grey part of the window showing.
No matter what I do I can not get it to open fully. The only course of action is to reboot the phone which then clears the problem.
Any ideas what is going on here?
I have also noticed this behaviour and wondered about it

Hello,
I get that as well from time to time. Only way to display the bar is to go in the main screen, press the menu button and sellect 'Notifications'.
Hope it will be fixed soon as it is really anoying bug.

Thanks for the tip... Forgot all about the Menu/Notification. I'll try it the next time it happens.
I have the same problem. I cannot, or only partially, pull down the notification bar. Menu -> notifications still works. It started 2 dags ago after i used Samsung's own RAM manager to clear level1 and level2 memory. First time I ever used this feature, and will also be the last. A reboot does not solve my issues.
Is there a way to clear notification bar cache, or the notification bar settings? This information must be stored somewhere, similar to that of other apps?
/edit
Yes, I also use launcher Pro.
On another note, after removing the battery when the phone was still on (so no proper shutdown) the problem disappeared.
hi,
could it be you guys are using launcher or launcher pro? I had the very same behaviour and installed adw launcher, wanted to compare those two anyway ... since I had installed adw launcher and used it the problem vanished ... so I assume its a problem of launcher pro ...

Ohh, give it time... If the little blighter has already been seen to happen there's a fair chance it will pop back up again right bang when you don't expect it.
I went well over a week without it myself then all of a sudden up it popped.

You mean you had the phone connected to a charger, otherwise it would simply reboot.
Only got to experience this once after 2.2 update. No apparent in 2.1. Here are my other observations. It does not pull down on portrait, but does on landscape. I am also using Launcher Pro, not sure if same thing happens if I am on TwLauncher. I installed z4mod lag fix thinking this has something to do with Samsung's programming. Haven't encountered it since. I would die if I would. LOL.
I just noticed that even after the z4mod lag fix, my Galaxy S is still not top notch in snappiness--lags from time to time, but way worst before the lag fix, phone was bordering useless due to how many times it froze. Kinda of irritating seeing that my X10, a much cheaper and technologically lesser phone, does not have this problem. I hope Samsung gets their act together as this phone has so much potential.
I have the same issue but I am on stock froyo, no lag fix or root. looks like a bug

I had the same problem with my galaxy s untill i uninstalled the Juicedefender app. Now it works great with no problem whatsoever (i use laucher pro).
I encounter the same issue once in a while, on stock froyo official update. Using launcher pro and zeam. Read somewhere that some apps that appear on the notification bar may cause the issue, so I've uninstalled them. Mines sticks whether in portrait or landscape format, and I believe after a notification appears. Shutting off and turning on doesn't always help but the problem usually goes away after a few days.

Don't forget hitting Menu and selecting Notifications will bring the Notification window down.
Hi,
I want to find out which apps drain my battery most. I'm looking for an app similar to systempanel full (which can determin those apps), but I don't have a credit card so I need it to be free.
Thanks in advance, cheers
Try "CurrentWidget" its available in the market.
try this EXCELLENT app...
https://market.android.com/details?id=bt.android.elixir
it's also free....
I use Battery Monitor Widget.. you can check which parts of the OS are using your battery by going into Settings->About Phone->Battery->Battery Use
"Battery Monitor Widget" by 3c06 is the best! or you can try "battery indicator"
find in market, free apps.
is anyone else having force close problems with battery monitor widget? At first it was okay not recently it has been acting up. I'm running it on americanandroid.

i think i just updated on friday but my problem was still there yesterday. i'll go and check it out again later. Maybe i'll just uninstall and reinstall it to make sure.
reijkelhof thanks! updated it and everything is good again. i must be thinking about my nook color that i updated over the weekend.
As far as I know the "battery monitor widget" is one of the best. If you have problems with crashes then try to move the app from SD to phone. That's mostly the problem why updated apps won't start anymore. With old android my apps are installed to phone...with ginger most apps are installed to SD. After updating angry birds as example it was also installed to SD and did not work anymore.
Post here your bugs and maybe solutions.
Bugs i found:
- themes do not work. A FC when clicking on a theme.
- brightness control doesnt work.

some descriptions still in chinese.(belongs to the german/english rom von Moviestar)
wifi got sometimes error.need restart
the most thinks are cm based so it got the same bugs like the nightlys.
see the cm nighlty bug thread
large data drain on the Android.system process. 100 MB of traffic within 2 days is just unacceptable, probably in conjunction with this about a 4 times as high standy drain than in cm7.1.
When fast scrolling large lists (contacts, music) the letter indicator in the center of the screen gets stuck.
When using an app overriding the screen brightness setting (e.g. GPS Status) the brightness level does not switch back to automatic after exiting the app.
Some widgets are not sized correctly when they are put up on the homescreen.
GPS is somewhat slow, even though the userspace is updated like in cm7.1
Themes app is either force closing when selecting online apps or the preview screen goes blank after a split second showing available themes. This can be circumvented by installing themes manually by downloading them from the miui website.
Thats what I found out so far.

Me too saw FCs while changing themes. Just updating this thread for over-emphasis .
Battery life is dreadful, for me at least.
Apart from that, i've not noticed many bugs
Yes, battery sucker no doubt.
Forced close when i tried to access DND security settings.

nova 2 is working here
Funny enough, I managed to get 9 hours of usage out of 20% battery.
What I did was deny the android system process internet access using the firewall, disabled data when not needed and froze the MIUI messenger as well as antispam and sidekick application.

How do you deny that with the firewall?

Will it not harm the system by denying the android system process access to the internet?
I havent noticed any drawbacks so far. But I'm sure you're right. I'm waiting for arcee to merge the latest kernel update before switching back to miui.
The denial was necessary, because the process was eating away on my data package.

REALLY NICE
Guess what? 3 hours and 30 minutes of usage, with wifi turned on,
Full charged of 100% dropped untill 30%! Omg....
Viber called for 30 minutes more, dropped till less than 15%!
MIUI 1.7.29 is a battery vampire.... ==
Am i the only one who cant mount? the phone freezes, after a while it just turns off and the screen turns on again but nothing come on it. i have to remove battery and insert again.
I am seeing google maps using a lot of battery with latitude and history turned off, independently of the rom, if after I reboot I open it, even if I force it stop. This doesn't happen if after a reboot I don't open it. Am I the only one?
I always use network location and I don't want to turn it off. Is there any trick?
Same problem
I have a similar feeling...

Did not, but since if I don't open it after a reboot I don't see it, I can't see how this could help.
The battery life is great without open gmaps (near 70% after 10h with 3g all the time).

10hrs of usage?!
After 10 hrs screen off with minimal usage im at around 50% propably!
I'm sure I saw google maps get an update yesterday or today to address the battery consumption problem in Latitude and Places ?
yes but it didn't really fix the issue.noticed the same here, gmaps drains too much battery got some reason.

Well, it looks like the only solution right now is freezing gmaps after using it.

It's normal draining battery when you're using GPS. What I'm talking about is the draining with gmaps on background, not while using it.

Hi,
I tried chivato's ROM and he implemented google maps in data folder (not in system/apps) so google maps are not loadead/active on system startup. How to do that in rebuild v20q ROM? I don't want remove this app completely just not to be in running apps list?

Just uninstall it with titanium and reinstall from market.
By the way, I tried 20q rebuild and came back to civiato's; its much smoother than 20q

Nfo somewhere; blatently spying...I did some monitoring and found maps is coming out of sleep to request location. I have to wonder why.
How do we freeze it because this is otherwise a useful app.
The next thing to do would be watching the traffic to see if it'sending that location
Hello, a newbie here. I just got Cyanogen mod 10.1.2 stable on my phone and everything is running smoothly except the BATTERY. It's getting drained like crazy even on standby mode by com.android.phone (blue icon) according to my Battery Mix app.
What could be causing it to run like that, and does anyone know how to fix it? Help would be much appreciated! And let me know if you need any additional info. Thanks!
