[Q] Stock browser fast navigate - HTC Sensation

Hi I'm using cm 10.1 jb 4.2.2 and in stock browser there is an option to turn on fast navigate. The problem is that this option don't work for me. If I swype from edge of the screen it don't show up. It works only sometimes, e.g. when i tryed get it I swyped edge of screen about 20 times and this menu show up once. Can anybody help me, maybe i did somethink wrong or don't know something awsome things. Thx

Ok I found what cause this problem. Seams to be width of trigger area. It is too small in stock browser so peaple with big fingers like me can't perform this operation with succes. I guess it can be changed in adv. browser menu ( e.g. in desktop firefox when we type about:config there is a lots of settings ) But in android about:config don't works . So pls tell me is there any other metod to fix this ???

[Q] Galaxy S -cant open picture in google, from the "Internet" browser

Hi all,
Just wondering anyone has come across this problem or not.
it happen to me, randomly, thus i am not sure whether is it a bug or setting tht had given this problem, but as far as i can remember, i dont adjust the setting of the default internet browser(nothing much to be adjusted too)
The problem goes like this:
I went to google page, opt for "Images", theh i type in things tht i want the search(e.g. cat)
all the cat images will surface, in normal situation, if i press on any of the image, it will be maximise and showing the image in almost full screen.
in other situation, when i touch on any images, the screen just simply dont respond to my touch at all, the closest i can get is, pressing on 1 image for 2 secs, then an option will come out, asking me whether to save image or view image, and it is jus a thumbnail size...
i tried on and off the phone but it doesnt help. sometimes it will just turns back to normal again.
but today the switching on and off dont solve this problem anymore, damn...
i really out of idea of what is going on, and how to get rid of this problem before i have no choice but to go to a service centre. my phone is a galaxy s, not rooted.
if u guys know where is the fault lies, pls help me. thks thks

Calibrate Touch/Location?

Is there a way to calibrate touch on screen (similar to way we did it on Windows Mobile?).
My screen is quite a bit off. Keyboard enters keys below what I click; when I select links on the browser, even if zoom in close and be very sure I click in right area, it will select the link below.
Very frustrating.
I cannot find a way to calibrate it.
This on top of the VERY laggy response(currently trying Thumb Kekyboard) makes the experience pretty bad. I was working to make this something for my wife to use, but she may throw it and me out the door.
the browser is also off for me slightly, it works fine everywhere else though. It seems to be fine in Aurora browser (firefox alpha).
Also if it's laggy get a custom ROM.

Web browsing lag? Slow loading links...

I'm interested in getting this tab, and I've checked it out at bestbuy. My only concern was the web browsing lag I noticed. I've seen this also in some reviews of the tab. The lag happens when you click on a link at it'll take a good 5 seconds before it starts to even load the link. Viewing the pages is no problem, but going from link to link seems to be sluggish. I noticed this on my original galaxy tab as well.
I also noticed that the web browser for some reason dims the backlight. I know this was an option for the original tab, and I looked for some separate brightness setting but none was found.
Any owners want to chime in?
There are so many good alternative browser in the market that I do not bother to use the stock one any more. I recommend Miren Browser.
P_
i almost never use stock browers. also it depends on the connection speed and what you are trying to view. usually on the demo models at best buy they show all flash video. if you change that setting to on demand so you click the flash it speeds it up greatly
another bug i saw today... let me know if it exists. Go into any web browser and try to scroll at the very right edge of the screen in landscape. I tried this and it did not scroll. I tried this on the left side and it was no problem. I tried this after noticing the backspace on the keyboard doesn't register half the time. It seems like something is wrong with the screen on the right side. I'm wondering if the firmware update fixed this issue too.

Turn off one finger zoom

Just installed Synergy JB and have noticed that there is one finger zoom in here where you basically slide up and down on the edge of the screen and it zooms in and out. I see people with the note II have this also so it seems it may be a Touchwiz JB feature but I haven't seen a way to turn it off. It's nice but would love to find a way to toggle it. I already checked display, accessibility, and motion controls with no luck and it zooms in any app that can zoom.
If I remember correctly E actually put the GNOTE 2 camera in that ROM so what you are seeing is that actually camera... As far as I know the only way to change that would be to flash a different camera.... HOWEVER.. I do have the NOTE 2 camera on mine also and can pinch to zoom or use the volume keys so there may be different versions of that also... But anyways flash a different camera and that should do the trick

Well its not just the camera it's in the browser, wikipedia app, and others
I apologize.. I swear the post said in the camera app.... I know he pulled a few .APK's from the Note 2... All I can suggest is check the settings for the individual apps... You could also try and download a different browser and try that... That would help narrow it down if it is something "Overseeing" the ROM or something specific to certain .APK's....
anyone find a fix for this...it's happening in my browser now and it's killing me?

What Scroll Bars?

With all due respect, you may want to look at your screen and take note of the fact there are no scroll bars.
I understand that we are creatures of habit, and as I have been using the GUI, with Scroll Bars since the first Mac (1984) I too tend to use the edge of the screen to scroll, but the truth is, it is a Phone, not a Mac, not a PC. It has no scroll bars. Scroll slightly to the left (or to the right-so to not disenfranchise left handed phone users) or 1/4 of the way across, or 1/3rd, or 1/2 or 3/4 quarters, etc. etc. etc.
Anywhere you'd like. It's a Phone, it's a touch screen. No mouse, no ability to tap in the scroll bar and have the screen advance. No way to position your mouse over the up or down arrow, and have the screen scroll smoothly without any other movement than you holding down the mouse button.
It's a Phone. Get it?
Anyway, what is really infuriating is that Samsung put this feature on the phone, didn't tell anyone, until people started complaining about it and reporting it as a bug, and then rather than either tell people about it, or add the ability through a Setting to disable it, in a new release of the software, the morons simply took it away.
So let me ask you, if your phone came configured with the setting disabled by default, but gave you the option to enable it, try it, see if you liked it, then said, nah, and turned it off, would that have been best for you and guys like me who depend on it all day every day to be able to use my Phone with one hand?
I think the answer is obvious.
Samsung, you are laughable, amateur software developers.
Thankfully we have XDA.
Now I just need one of you on here to figure out where in the heck it is hidden so you can make me a build that includes it with whatever else is in the latest releases.
You see, Android is almost entirely "Hard Coded" so it is not something the average user can just go "teeak" , like following the step by step instructions of someone to simply "Hack" the Windows Registry to make it the way we like it.
All the more reason Samsung is so pitiful.

cm 7.2 problem

I have problem with rom cm 7.2. This rom is the best, but i have a problem with display usage battery, i have a 70% usage. Brightness i have a low level and still is this problem, and my battery drain a very fast with using. Help me please
bump
I have the same issue. I found that on stock Rom the main reason of battery drain so fast was dialer, now on cm7 display take about 50%
Try CM9... battery works for up to 2 days at normal use... Instead of the lopusy 12 hours on stock and cm7...
on cm9 i have this same
Since I am not allowed to post in development section (new user, 10 posts rule) this thread title is the closest one to my questions. I am currently on latest CM7 rom (thanks adlx.xda) and I am facing some issues.
First of all, the rom itself is great. It would be nice to update it with the latest sources. I tried all versions and in the last one there is a huge scrolling lag that was not present in the previous versions (one can see this in browser, opera mini etc. when scrolling down or up with physical keys). I think it has something to do with framework, but not sure. I ported another CM7 rom from various different phones, using adlx's as a base, and those didn't have that lag, but I couldn't remove the default on-screen keyboard because when I remove it the sym key when pressed keeps popping up to select input method.
Speaking of keyboard, when I use browser or any other browser (except opera) the key "enter" will not open the selected link. It will do nothing. This is only on CM7 and SuperOSR. It is working properly on stock, CM9 and CM10. This is very much needed since sometimes I am having trouble opening a link with my big fingers so I use the arrows to select a link and enter to open a link. I have tried to play with the keypad files but without much success.
The last issue I was having has something to do with the camera. I don't care about the front cam, I believe 90% of us doesn't care about it as well. But I was having issues with flash. It is out of sync most of the times. It works, but it is not in sync with the actual moment of taking the pictures so most of the times my pictures are dark and sometimes not visible at all. But I can live with that, just wanted to point it out.
Adlx, I hope you read the general section, and I would really appreciate if you could give me some pointers about keypad files and why enter button when I try to open a link with it is not working only in those two roms.
Best regards.

Little bump. Still need 2 more posts
