Android scrolling - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello, this is my first Android phone; coming from an iphone. Can someone explain to me why the scroll bar changes sizes in length as you scroll down/up? It happens in various apps, including the xda app.
Thanks in advance!

It's gets smaller as it loads more items to the list.

Homescreen?

Is there any way to make the icons of apps smaller than they are so I can fit more on the homescreen?

Sorry I am a complete noob when it comes to android (long time user of iOS) but when I install them the sizes don't change. They look practically the same

Which one are you using? In ADW: Hit Menu > More > ADWSettings > UI Settings > Screen Preferences. Then you are able to change the number of Desktop Columns and Desktop Rows. The more you have, the smaller the icons will be.
Let me know if you need any more help.
Thanks it worked! Now that's out of the way..does battery get affected by using different launchers?

Nope. It just replaces the default one. "TWLauncher" Have fun changing up your screens like crazy. When I get bored, I just start changing things up and before I know it, a couple of hours are missing...
Haha awesome, thank you!

My widgets are lower than my apps

Ok this one sounds silly, but on my screens of icons the widgets are not in a straight line with the app I cons but a bit below.
Anyone else seeing this?

maybe take a screenshot to show what you are trying to say...
I have the same problem. But it's also the on my old RAZR so I guess it's an android problem.
Please refer to my screen shot.

I assume this is because your widgets have no title, while the icons do.
Disable viewing the names of the applications and see if that helps.
duh!!!!
Such an idiot I am.
BTW - I am on Stock 4.1.2 (and had 4.1.1 same issue) -
BTW where do I set that I do NOT want labels written under the icons ...
Ahahahhah

Home pack buzz

While surfing the play store I found this app called home pack buzz. Most of the time I see a lot of great homescreens and I try to do them but end up getting very frustrated. This app you can view the many different home screens and in two seconds download it. At the same time you can make it your own.

I saw thus yesterday and gave it a shot. It definitely has potential, but I feel like some of the tweaks aren't very intuitive. Either way, it's an awesome idea. We need to get some of the UCCW gurus in on this.

Widgets

Has anyone been able to find them... They are not displayed as they were on past Galaxy devices. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm good now thanks.
Still can't find your widgets? Next page after the last app in the app drawer.
Go to apps then on top it says widget.

Swiping up from bottom of the screen

Hi all. Does anybody know how to remove or replace the Voice Mate, Search and QuickMemo icons that appear when you swipe up from the bottom of the screen. Thanks in advance.

I would recommend switching to the new PA ROM that was just posted yesterday. It is pretty stable from my reading in this forum.
