I really like reading ebooks on my phone but when I'm scrolling down it keeps going back or forward a page. it drives me nuts. I already have motion turned off and it doesn't seem to be the app (ezpdf)..
Any way to disable this annoying "feature"?
Thanks
*bump*
Nobody knows? I thought there were smart people around here...
Guess I was wrong.

if you can not answer the question, does that not put you into the same Cat.........
as far as the page layout thing I don't have a PDF file big enough to flip pages and see if I get the same issues.

Can't argue with that logic, I guess.

When looking at the lock screen my phone doesn't display the date. Its cut off. All I see is Mon. May and the very top of the actual date. Anyone else have this problem? Wasn't like this any other time.
Edit.. didn't see any other posts when I started to post this earlier and didn't finish. Now that I did I see others. Mods, feel free to delete.

it does sort the apps menu... hit menu, edit , sort , save... and the lockscreen thing is easily fixed by swapping fonts

Yeah, those are real important features...
So how do I fix this problem?
Change the lock screen font, the same answer in the other dozen threads about this...

well yes they are... lock screens can make or break a phone. even windows 8 will have a customizable lock screen. Widget locker comes the closet to the best but samesung is awsome lock but needs widgets....
Just read through the threads
Do you BONSAI?
I have an Epic 4G Touch, hence this question being in the Epic 4G Touch forum.
When I press the power button to turn on the display, it takes the phone anywhere between 1-3 seconds for the screen to turn on. The same thing happens when I'm on a phone call and the screen is off because of the proximity sensor. When I move the phone away from my head (say to use the dial pad), it again takes the screen 1-3 seconds before it turns on.
This seems like it's a bit longer than what it should be. What can I do to improve the situation?
I don't use any task killer apps (because they're bad for your OS), and I don't really have much running in the background. I use Minimalistic Text widgets and Llama, but I think that's all I've downloaded that runs in the background.
Thanks in advance for your replies

do a search on here its been discussed a few times already
it's because of the SD Card. It's a known issue. Some people don't mind, some people do. I'm the latter, it's annoyingly laggy.

Tried searching. I saw the topic for some other phones, but I figured this might be phone specific. If you're aware of a relevant thread maybe you could point me to it?

So you're saying without the SD card that doesn't happen? Got any sources or further reading? Sounds like a huge bummer if this is the case...

Ok here is a link where they discuss the sdcard issue
Here is one where they actually did a lil study on it
Here is a google search link with some from different forums.
Its out there my friend I have been reading up on this phone since I got it and there is not a question you can think of that someone has not already asked. You got to look much deeper than page 1 of any of the forums just to see whats going on.... lol Hope that helps man

Try GoSms with GoLocker I put both of them on my phone after I formatted my sdcard and moved my lockscreen background pic to my internal sd and it cut down on the lag

I use a pattern lock screen. Does GoLocker work with that?
Also, I read through those other threads you mentioned and people claimed that a class 10 micro SD card helped a lot with the lag, so I ordered a PNY class 10 off of Amazon.
I'll post results here when I get it.
Hey Guy. Literally the thread right below you with 111 responses on the same exact subject answering all your questions. Do a thread search next time!

GoLocker has its own lockscreen patterns

Yeah the only reason it's right below this one is because I posted in it after it was already recommended to me in this thread.
But thanks anyway.
Hey guys, just wondering if you guys know how to disable the side zoom in Browser?
I noticed this first on JB roms based on leaks, but I don't remember if it was in ICS.
If you don't know what I mean, basically when you're using browser and navigating horizontally through a webpage, the very side of the device, left or right, will initiate a zoom function. I can only imagine it's a test to get around any possible pinch to zoom lawsuits.
However, it's really annoying! Couldn't find a setting.
hmm, now that I think about it i'll try about::config or one of those. I'll report back, please let me know if you all know how to disable! TY
No, it's on ICS too. It's in the Setting/Emotion.

How odd, I don't see it in the settings motion area.
Just bringing this thread back to see if anyone has a solution. I can't find a way to disable this in Settings/Motion either, and entirely turning motion off doesn't fix it. Really annoying to be happily scrolling around and suddenly have the page start resizing for no reason.
Nope, this is a new "feature"!
Will require decompiling and modding.
Im planning to look into it but not right away. If I get time this weekend ill see what I can do with it.

Was this ever done?
Anyone figure this out yet? This crap started with jellybean. Stock browser and Dolphin both do this stupid side zoom crap. Firefox and Opera don't. It's so annoying I actually might switch to Opera instead. Dolphin was the greatest but this 'feature' is radically annoying.
Hi, XDA ,
On a D855, is there anyway to remove that screenshot notification that shows every time you grab a screenshot, which is shown in the notification centre? It's annoying, to have to Clear the notifications every time - OCD much...
// Troels
First its not a "notifications centre" - it is a notifications bar, where notifications are listed - "notifications centre" is an ios thing....
Secondly I am not aware of any way to stop them from showing, the reason they do is a) so you know it has taken one and b) so you can do something with it straight away - most people take a screenshot because they want to immediately share it somewhere.
With these things there is always a way, if you are rooted and take the time to find the relevant bit of code to modify it - but I have never seen one ready made and I do not have the patience, time or need to make one for you.

I wouldn't ask you - if the fix would be as rude as you, it'd probably piss the phone off.

Sh*t happens, I just asked if there is any way - if I really wanted the fix and there's no easy way of doing it, I'd have absolutely no problem paying someone to do it.

Sounds very much like Magento... The only question is how complex that way is...
This needs to be made
Is anyone else's 5t pretty sensitive and auto rotates at times you don't want it to just by a small movement?
So this is still driving me crazy, small movements continue to make the screen auto-rotate when trying to do something. Is there any way to calibrate the accelerometer?
Any answer for this?

this was allways an issue to me on all oneplus devices. Theycan fix this problem by simply raising the rotation trigger treshold. but i guess there are not venough complains. it should be possible with root too but i dont know exactly what file/line to modify.
Yep, I have locked mine to portrait mode which seems to be fine for me 90% of the time for me. I do hope they fix this though..

+100 but unfortunately seems most of the people (including oneplus) don't care.
Yep. I had a thread on this when it first came out.
I wish I could find an app that worked well enough to let me just pick and choose what I want to auto-rotate, but they all are a little flaky.
I've locked it to portrait. This is an OOS issue or all ROMs? Haven't dabbled with any custom ROMs yet, but if it can't fix this annoying issue, I'm all for it.
Had this on all the Nexus ROMs as well....always on portrait does it for me.
Just saw this in the articles section.

Could be worth a try.
