Z3 Screen crack Notification Bar workaround - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have had the Z3 for around 4 months now..
The glass is rubbish.. The back cracked without any drops or damage. It was on a sideboard and suddenly a crack appeared
I dropped on kitchen lino the other day and the from top corner cracked .
Now the top of the touchscreen is unresponsive.
Is there anyway I can have the notifcation bar moved or a hardware key or shortcut so that it pulls down?
Thanks

[REQUEST] Big "clear" button in notification area

I think the stock clear button in the upper right corner is a bit small and out of the way. Perhaps the button can go all the way across the notification pulldown screen at the bottom.
Also, maybe there is another way to open the notification area that is faster. I don't like laving to make a huge swipe to open it quickly, and I don't like how slowly it opens if I do a slow swipe.
Cheers to all. Good luck with the modding to come in the next few weeks and months

Does Android need navigation buttons?

After watching a demo of the new BlackBerry 10 today, it occured to me that Android doesn't need the navigation bar taking up screen real estate. The back button can be replaced by swipe from left edge into center (similar to pulling down the notification bar on top). Swiping from bottom up brings up the menus. And swiping from right to left can either go home or with a second up or down flick go to recent apps (or switch these two).
Once this is implemented, manufacturers can get rid of the bottom capacitive buttons, increasing screen size while keeping phone physical size constant. Android can finally get rid of the navigation bar that wastes so much space.
Make it happen I'll test but I like my soft keys

Well, that's a thought. Personally, I'd just put the softkeys into the statusbar and get rid of the navigation bar altogether.

Apparently the Ubuntu smartphone OS has all these edge swipe gestures in the plans:

[Q] Screen centering and or smaller edge screen

Notice how on home screen everything is kinda of center to the left because of the efge panel when its open , will there be a mod or something to get the screen center or maybe adjust as the edge panel opens and closes. Like right now on this page the edge panel is black with my custom text and its smaller than when on the home screen.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
See the difference , the touchwiz launcher always has edge panel open and any other launcher has it closed. The one on left appears to be open a little but its really not, its just how the screenshot is taken.
Im not really understanding you.
When on the home screen yes everything is push to the left because the edge panel cant close on the default launcher.
Now while in an app the edge panel closes and becomes small with the text.
The screen is center.
So i dont know if your is off or what.
Sorry for the confusion. What i mean is closing the edge panel on touchwiz launcher

Is there any mod to have the edge panel closed on the home screen like when it closes when in the app drawer?

Lenovo tab2 a10-30 touchscreen problem

After updating to android 6.0.1 I'm having a touchscreen problem.
After a few seconds of using of the tablet a shadow appears in the upper part of the screen around one of the icons. If I'm on the home screen it will appear around the top left app icon regardless of what icon is it, if I'm in settings screen the shadow will apear around the top left option.
The shadow affects scrolling by stucking the screen and doesn't allows me to choose any other opption besides the shaddowed one. I have or to go back one screen or to lock and unlock the screen in order to choose what I want.
Had anyone faced the same problem? Any solution beside rolling back to 5.1.1 (problem of it's own)?

Black navigation on all screens

Hi,
Since the update to one ui 2.0, i have a permanent black bar where the navigation buttons usually go,(i used gestures btw).
Its like the black bar you get under the keyboard which i have turned off, but still just get an empty black bar at the bottom of my screen now.
I've drawn round it in red to show what I'm on about in the attached picture.
Is anyone else having this issue and how i do i remove it.
Thanks in advance
Sometimes the bar will change colour to what's on the screen, but before the update it wasn't there at all.
Hi, I only got that when I used the kwgt app to theme my phone. I still want to know why but anyway once uninstalled my phones back to normal.
