I did not post this in a rom specific thread because I have had it happen on both stock ICS and JB. and CleanRom. When using Dolphin Mobile browser and another one that I do not recall at the moment, I will get what looks like some type of film (I do not know how to describe it better) over the web page to make it appear faded out. It does not happen everytime. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it a common occurrence?

It's called s creen. Just kidding. Does it go away when you press the Back button? Is it a pop-up that's hidden? Do you have it on other apps (especially other browsers)?

If you are talking about xda just change the theme to xda 2010 down the bottom left.

And yes my screen is clean also I will have to check out the back button. How does one check for hidden pop-ups?
Should have done a multi quote, my bad. But yes it does occure a lot with xda, so I followed you suggestion. Will see what happens.
I've noticed this too on a site I visit, it's really annoying.
I have that as well, using the Stock Browser. Doesn't happen in Chrome (at least it didn't the last time I checked). On XDA it disappears if you either change the theme or press quick reply. A little annoying, but I can live with it.

Has anyone had a problem with not being able to hold, grab and move widgets and shortcuts on their homepages? Since last night, anything that is in the bottom 2 rows on any of my pages cannot be moved. A long press just activates the program. Severely irritating since I tend to place most of my shortcuts along the bottom to see the top of my background... Does anyone know of a way to delete a widget WITHOUT having to hold and drag to Remove (which I can't do since I can't pick them up >.< )?

Sounds like the touch input service has fouled. A reboot should fix it.
And yes, I have seen that on AOSP with home++ as well as 1.5.

I had actually decided to reboot the phone before I got the subscription note that you'd replied. It seems to have worked... but that's only the 4th time today I've reboot the phone. Wonder what's mucking things up...

Ahh. Well thanks for letting me know. Another mystery solved!
This is gonna sound dumb but is there a "home" button that I don't see on the stock browser???
How do i get "home" after surfing a bunch of pages?
The only one I know of is on the top right of the Bookmarks screen
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
Can't you open a new tab, and that is your homepage? Thats what I do.
thank you both for those suggestions, they will work for me.
alternatively, from from the quick menu via the sides, hit the bookmark and it'll be on the upper right of the bookmark screen

yes, enable the quick access menu from the Settings of the stock browser. That will give you buttons like: forward&back&reload, bookmarks, new tab, etc. Basically if you open a new tab that will have your home page.

I just wish there was an ad-blockling plug-in for it.
For all firefox mobile's problems with flash support and appalling image quality the ability to surf without annoying ads everywhere is tempting...

Nope, should be able to flash it over the top, it flashes everything, so it shouldn't be a problem.

the launcher does rotate when you open the screen though, which i like because it isnt buggy like a few other launchers.
fav improvements is that is feels way more stable.
jumping to diffrent applications is faster
sending and receiving pictures works now while on wifi (before i would have to get off wifi to send and receive)
cant wait for a different lockscreen... other than that, everything on this rom is just pure win.

Its cause the menus are controlled by the framework on stock launchers, our framework isnt aosp. which is why i suggested LauncherPro

Overdose is by far the smoothest rom I've tried for our sk4g. Not very many bugs if at all.
Always remember to do a full wipe regardless of what rom you're coming from before flashing. Otherwise the bugs you're experiencing could be entirely your own fault.

Hey I would also like to say that I think the 10 post thing is BS, I don't have a question I just want to post a comment, or I do have a question and NO it hasn't already been asked. Not really a huge deal. Just really annoying.
I agree with most of the previous posters here, on a couple of fronts. First off, the 10 post minimum to post in the Dev forums is a big pain in the backside.
Next up, GO is a great ROM. I'd been running a rooted and very slightly tweaked version of the stock SK4G ROM, and it was really annoying -- extremely slow, prone to freezing and FC'ing on multiple apps, the works. I tried installing GCv2 last month but could never manage to get it working -- had to ODIN the phone back to to original stock just to debrick it and get it boot up.
However I do have one specific question. Is there any way to retrieve the original sounds/ringtones (especially the notification ringtones) from the stock Sidekick 4G and add them to this? I like some of the new ringtones and sounds available with Glorious Overdrive, but would prefer to have at least a few of the original ones available as well.
Thanks in advance!
You can, just open the stock roms zip from a computer and look in the folders for sounds can't remember now, but maybe in media? Then put them on your SD card In a folder called ringtones or notifications and your current rom will see it.
Hi !
I don't want to be a pest or anything , but is it anyway you could post a tutorial on how to get this Rom. I tried to ODIN my phone to KJ2 , but it stuck me in the logo loop. Could you please help ?
Just curious but did you really need to odin back to kj2?
I just straight up flashed from kd1 and it flashes everything to kj2
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App
The ODIN for KJ2 does not work, you can just flash over kd1 or kg2, there shouldn't be any issues.

not having this problem buuuut, here and there when i do open gallery, ill have an extreme lag, and sometimes the gallery will even freeze the phone.
going to try to format sd card, then place my pics back on, see if that fixes anything
Anyone else suffering from the update? Liked the extra additions but now it's as limited as stock launcher when it comes to screen real estate.Hopefully this can be fixed asap. I've contacted anderwebs and received no response. I wish I can roll back but now I'm gonna just have to wait it out. No more hubs for me
yeah i had to revert back to previous version.
Couldn't find the option to hide dock bar

I think it was made more for the phones seeing as the menu button is present. Hopefully he addresses this issue soon. I'd hate to troll back to launcher pro.

i sent them an email yesterday about the action bar... easy to hide but when the orientation changes it shows the action bar again...
Thank goodness I saw the reviews first before I hit the update button. I'm staying with the old version until this is resolved. I hate having a dockbar.
Reverting back to the last version.

Worst update ever. Screen usable space is so small now
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
Reminds me why I run Ti Back-up...that layout is awful. I like the changes to the folders and some of the other things but the layout is terrible if you are trying to run HUBS. Anybody notice the change to the apps bar? I played with it for awhile before I restored and I am already not a fan. You can only have 11 apps in horizontal mode? Why would you limit it and force it to scroll?
My only complaint with the update it seems it has slowed down a little and gestures are not working as they should swipe up is fine but swipe down doesnt work.
I think maybe it was a rushed release like a preview of look what we can do when icys is here and such.
Hopefully adw ex is back on game soon !!!!

Guys he responded to my inquiries on twitter and it seems he has no idea what we're talking about. Contact anderwebs in his twitter page, he responds a lot faster there.
Edit: He updated it again but the issues with tablet space is still there.
AAGGHH could he have left it out by mistake?

Update 1.3.3.55! (as usual )
I’ve released a minor update with the following additions/fixes:
Option to use the dock as overlay: this means your desktop will be full size and the dock will appear over it when you show it.
When you trigger the “hide/show dockbar” action/gesture, the new status will be remembered until you show/hide it again. This is like the old option “No dock”!!
Click to expand...

Ill give it a try brb
EDIT: Its not up yet!! Market still shows 1.3.3.5
EDIT2: Tried it the dock does disappear but the sides (When viewing landscape) do not extendo to the whole screen, so it looks horrible
EDIT3: This is what he told me on twitter:
@mauaus there will be a release by a week with a configuration window for the screen margins. Sorry
Iv just bought this, i see the tablet layout is different from the phone, i never knew that, i used to think, why do peeps want their tablet looking like their phone lol, its actually really good and brilliant bargain at ten pence.

i was just finished setting up hubs, then i updated and now everything looks bad.
a lot of work for nothing.
i hope the small screen issue gets fixed asap.
Bought this today to for a dime to replace LauncherPro (which keeps FC'ing). Looks nice, but scrollable widgets are downright unusable. There is a big-time lag in every scrollable widget I try (Gmail, Calendar, Bookmarks, CNN). I thought maybe it was the gesture feature interfering, but I have them set to none and still the scrolling widgets are just way too sticky. They scroll perfectly in LP and the stock launcher, so there's definitely an issue with ADW Ex.
Anyone else have this problem? It doesn't happen if you keep your finger on the screen while scrolling, just if you swipe-scroll (like flicking through a list of emails), which is why I think it's conflicting with the swipe gesture functionality.

Have you played with the desktop scrolling speed? May not impact the widgets at all...but I am not having the same lag you are describing.
Has anyone experienced this on Google Chrome?? And if so, how do you fix this?? Here is a link to the screenshot:

That happens on mine as well. Refreshing works occasionally. If not, I just hit options and then check "Request desktop site." Kind of a pain, but it fixes it. I'm not sure if Tapatalk works since I don't use it, but might be worth a shot if you browse a lot.

I figured that out already but thanks. I was just wondering if there was a fix for it.
It usually fixes itself a few seconds after the website has loaded completely. I don't know what triggers the fix though - I just scroll a little here and there and all of a sudden it becomes normal.
