Recently for some unrelated reasons, I had to do a complete wipe/reset of my phone.
Until then, I had been running ICS. Since I had to reload anyway, I went with the stock JB load.
Something I immediately noticed was that the Phone, People, & Calendar icons/shortcuts no longer appear to be interactive? Just simple shortcuts.
For example, on ICS, the Phone & People icons in the launcher had up/down swipe actions (see the up/down triangles). The Calendar and Email shortcuts had the same ability.
Now on JB, they're just basic icons/shortcuts. I've looked through all the settings and don't think I'm missing anything. Is this something that was just dropped by Motorola/Google on JB?

Ok, so apparently this feature is called "Quick View" and was disabled by Motorola in all Jelly Bean ROMs. Several people with the Atrix were also complaining about it missing.
It wasn't "removed", but disabled from what I understand. The component for it seems is still present in the ROM (see below).
Any ideas on how to re-enable it? I'm not coming up with much discussion scouring the net.

Hey, I searched for this and didn't find anything that applied to my issue. I just rooted my HTC EVO a week ago and since then there has been random force closes, email accounts on HTC's Mail app combining together bringing a few emails from one account to the other, and now my phone dialer does not work. It opens but I can see no numbers to push and can only dial through contacts. I cleared the Dalvik cache today to see if that did anything, and even tried end process and clear data for the dialer to no avail. I'm running the "stock" rom and kernel, and have only installed SetCPU, WirelessTether, SystemPanelLite, and CurrentWidget since rooting. Nothing has changed otherwise. I rooted with UnrEVOked, recovery is clockworkmod. Do I need to get rid of the "stock" ROM in order to prevent these problems? The phone worked flawlessly before I rooted.
Below is a screenshot of the problem, names and phone numbers were blurred with photoshop after i took the screenshots. It literally looks the exact same on my screen, no numeric dialer whatsoever. Almost like the dialer should be there since it cuts off the last half of the bottom recent contact.

can't find anything on this. I have an htc evo 4g lte. s-off. on viper (or any sense rom) when swiping to scroll through image results, the thumnails pages are not landing precisely on the next page. it's off by like one or a half of a thumbnail. the bar with the page numbers and arrows move with the swipe. touching an image then proceeds to show the wrong image. if I start on the first page it will work fine by tapping the right arrow instead of swiping. this started with jb. now on aosp roms this happens but only if I scroll up or down before or durring swipe left. I don't understand it and it's driving me crazy. in sense roms it does it no matter what. searching for help on this is useless as the search criterea brings up a slew of unrelated topics. am I missing something? I find it hard to believe this problem is limited to my device.
here is an example

New infinite scrolling google images works fine effectively negating the possibility of my side scrolling issue (obviously) so if any moderator sees this thread, go ahead and close it.

I've not been active on these forums for a while, but I'm working on a mini graphics project, with mock up designs of what I would like from Android 5.0. Feel free to discuss below opinions on what I've done. This post will be updated over the next week or two as more designs are completed.
1. Redesigned Lock screen
I'm not really a massive fan of the current lock screen and annoyingly I like how the iOS lock screen is, with notification sliders on the lock screen, it makes it easier to get straight into replying to a text. Below is a mockup of what I mean.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Completely Redesigned Launcher
I found myself getting bored with the current launcher and want to see something different in the next android, something innovative. I've recently started using Smart Launcher, and I just love the simplicity of it, and would love to see google build their stock launcher around a similar layout.

Will update next additions after I have created the next graphic
I'm using the Acer A210 if that makes any difference.
I've wiped and installed different ROMs and the bouncing app bug persists, I've searched EVERYWHERE for a solution but can't seem to find one.
No matter what app I use a bar will come up between the status bar and actual app the same thickness as the status bar. On the old ROM I used it used to only rarely happen and only happen often in the Google Voice app but now with the new ROM I have installed (was forced to update ROM as I woke up and suddenly the tablet wouldn't go passed the Acer boot screen) it's on EVERY app I use and drives me crazy. I'm pretty sure it's not a hardware issue as it's only persistent in apps, never on the homescreen, lockscreen, nor does the status bar move, thus the screen itself isn't projecting the pixels to move, it's something within the coding itself I assume.
My other issue I'm having is my lockscreen is completely locked to landscape mode and I'd like for it to be able to be locked to portrait or at least have the ability to auto-rotate, I'm sure that's the easier to solve problem of the two but they're both driving me nuts.
If I could get some codes for the files I need to edit and a simple how-to that'd be amazing.
Any workarounds are welcome and any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hello,
So, I have 2 SAMSUNG S8+' and, I use pretty much both, as in, all the time.
I work in SAMSUNG Notes all the time, be it for casual reasons or otherwise.
However, although I did notice this difference before, I didn't really look into it to figure out what's going on...
So, the problem is, when I go into the "more font color options" and or "more font background color options":
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I happen to be displayed a different menu on both phones:
Above screenshot from the phone I'm currently posting this thread from, and:
This one displayed on my 2nd Phone.
NOTE: Both phones have the latest app, software and system version and or update, and are also setup the very same way in-app settings and options as well as app settings and permissions. Also also, I re-installed the apps, cleared cache(s) and verified if there is anything different on one phone than the other (which obviously shouldn't be (and wasn't) since both are setup to be identical), as well as restarted a few times in the process, cleared memory (isn't the issue) and tried finding answers on my own.
App Version:
So, my question is:
How and why, are they displayed differently and how could I change either of them to display the other?
