Is anyone else experiencing their icons on any of their home screens disappearing when attempting to move them? After long pressing, and "picking up" the icon, trying to move it to a new position will cause it to either revert back to the old position (meaning, simply can't move them) or just flat out disappear entirely.
Problem persists until rebooting, in which I find all the icons I attempted to move in one of my folders in my home screen.
Just adding to the slew of Gingerbread glitches. Anyone else?
Edit: I filed a report to Google: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13434 If you're also experiencing this, please visit the link and star, so more attention is brought to Google.
Really, no one else?
In general, sometimes icon apps refuse to be moved.
Yeah I'm getting something similar. Like when I try to add an icon on the bottom section closest to the trashcan, it automatically goes to the trash.
I even tried placing it on the corner but no dice.
After further experimenting, it seems that it only happens on the last screen on the right.
I tried the other screens, and was able to actually place the icons on the bottom section.

Oddly, it happens to me mostly on the screen farthest left. Ridiculous. The slew of glitches with Gingerbread continue.
If you haven't yet, please visit this report that I filed to Google and star it to garner more attention. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13434
Thanks.
I found out where all those icons went, they all showed up in a folder that I had on another screen which I named "sports" because it's where I keep the apps that I use for all my sports needs. When I opened it I saw like 10 google voice shortcuts because that's the app shortcut that I've been trying to add. Wired glitch.

Yep, I've experienced something similar. Disappeared icons appear in folders... randomly. Once again, anyone else also experiencing this, visit this link and star the Google report: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13434
Yes I have also had this issue but it only happens when I try to move an app. (I added a comment to the bug report and starred it)

I have this reoccurring issue. It seems to happen after installing apps or certain apps.
Everything is working fine and affter I install some app from the market link in my e-mail stop working and I can't add pics to my contacts. Seem as if the little chooser pop-op (to add pics from the market or take a pic/ or to shoose with browser to use) doesn't appear. The background grays out but the picker never pops up. Seem to only happen after I've installed app and reboot.
I guess the app are somehow breaking these functions. I think App stacker and Cover Art Downloader are two of the offending apps (also some live wall papers).
Anyone else?
I've wiped my tablet about five times to day to fix this. Seems removing the app alone won't fix it.
I freaking afraid to add anymore apps to my Transformer now!
I'm unrooted and running the latest update and updated from 3.1 to 3.2 as soon as I got my tablet home yesterday.
The 3.2 update introduced a bug. For the email links, rotate the screen to make the app chooser list come up. Not sure about adding pics to contacts though, maybe someone else can chime in.

Thanks for the heads up.
I think it's the same bug. It just prevents the app chooser thing from poping up. Funny thing is it works at first. and breaks later on after a some re-boots.
Is this bug also present in the custom ROMs?

The bug is baked into 3.2. The bug reappears after a reboot.

Hello!
Some of you may know me already, I'm the developer of Scrolling Notifications.
I'm back with a new app! It has a lot of similarities with Scrolling Notifications in some social functions but this time it takes the form of a new Notification Shade, very similar visually to the one in Jelly Bean!
It has a Trial Period of 10days, I hope it's okay with the rules of this board.
You can have Notifications for your SMS (with quick-response and mark as read), Twitter, Facebook (with no signing needed if you have the official app, theoretically :silly and RSS (and maybe more in the future).

The app is available in English and french, please contact me if you want to help translate it in other languages
Feel free to give your feedback, report bugs and post suggestions! Don't worry other features and enhancements are on the way but for the first release I could not put all that I wanted.
(In case you're wondering about Scrolling Notifications a big update is coming so it integrates Facebook, some small new things coming from this app and some long due bug fixes . No ETA for this one for the moment, because I need to change some core things.)
CHANGELOG 1.3
-Added Full screen option.
-Added Start On Boot option. (activated by default)
-Added option to avoid service stop by system (activated by default)
-Added better mark as read mechanism: notifications can reappear if the service is stopped and that there were not marked as read.
-fixed a bug facebook denying connection with facebook when the official app was installed.
-corrected a bug when switching app and just after sliding down the panel would automatically slide back up
-more bug fix
Changelog 1.2
-fixed a crash with SMS when vibration is activated
-added number of days left for trial period in settings
-better layout in settings
-new option for 12/24 hour format. AM/PM was removed from the 12hour format
-new option for enabling partial panel transparency.
-new option to enable/disable blinking notifications (individual settings planned for future update)
Changelog 1.1.2
Initial Release
Hey I really love your ideas, but you other app I purchased and it has not been updated for some time. So how about giving those who purchased it a free upgrade
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
Hi, thanks for your enthusiasm!
As I said for Scrolling Notifications an update is coming with lots of stuff. Sorry it took so long but an overhaul was needed and creating this new app helped me a lot to better reorganize and improve the code and it motivated me to continue even if it's hard for me because the sells of my app don't allow me to work as much as I would want on them.
But I think you're right, the early customers who trusted me by buying my first app should be rewarded. Your idea seems feasible, I'll examine it and come back at you (and the others who previously purchased it) as soon as possible(before the end of the week I hope, in the meantime you can give a try to the app without buying it ).
Thanks for your support!
Just downloaded the app and already loving it!
Login to Twitter for the first few times got some OAuthExceptionError or some sort but managed to login now.
Hopefully this application will receive more likes and the dev will not abandon this project!
1) Eating too much ram and battery
2) Would it be possible if sliding the message away = mark as read?
3) How would I know how many days I've left using the trial? Can you push an update to show it?
4) After using for a long time, when I want to pull down the notification, it will never be pulled down. It just springs back up. tl;dr, it stopped working.
Thanks for the nice words, especially on the play store, it s encouraging!
For Twitter yes it can take 2 or 3 attempts and I m not sure if it s due to the library I m using or Twitter servers but once it s set you should not have anymore problems on this matter.
1- I will investigate the memory/battery issue any more details you could provide can help!
2-you mean for twitter or facebook? It s already the case for sms.
3-in the next update I ll show it on the main settings page, thanks for the suggestion
4-strange this should only happen on the lockscreen can you give more details?

Hahaha you deserve it. :laugh:
I wonder who gave you one star. That bastard.
Yup. After authenticating, it works pretty well ^^
1) Background service is already using up 12mb Is it possible to scale it down?
2) For SMS. When I slide it away, the message icon is still there. Any possible way to remove it? Furthermore, the "New message : 1" still appears on the lock screen.
3)Thank you
4) Seems to be working now, AFTER I got one notification. Before that, it's hard to slide the notification down.
Some features request [ You don't have to do it! Just giving some suggestions to make it better ^^ ]
Whatsapp Notification [ I doubt it's possible because I heard there's no API to it? Maybe just a simple notification will do?]
Colors [ Message icon, bar icon etc etc]
Notification vibration and sounds for each individual.
Vibration pattern.
Custom sound - Using our own music.
Bug/Glitches
SMS vibrate when switched on doesn't seem to work. FC when message arrived.
.
Etc :
Alignment of text [At the "Advanced Tab", "Twitter" doesn't align with the other text"]
I'll have a go at Facebook and RSS notification as I'm currently using only SMS and Twitter updates.
Then I'll update this post again! Possible about 2 - 3 hours from now!
Hope to see some updates soon! Thank you! ^^
For the 1-star guy it's a german speaker with a desire hd, he basically says it's a good approach, the app is not bad, but not good enough to buy it and he seems to have lot of lags ( I think he speaks about sliding up and down the panel, which is not very fluid, I'll try to make it better, for example by making the background opaque by default and activate transparency via an option, and by other means). 1-star seems a bit harsh yeah .
I also added Beta in the title on the Play Store, it may be more appropriate so people don't expect it to be 100% bugfree first release, I do my best to provide a professional product but I don't have the means for the moment to test every possible configuration before release so sadly some problems are expected at the beginning . I don't know, what do you guys think ?
Previous points:
1- I'll do my best to scale it down, I have a few optimizations ideas I need to test, I don't guarantee all will come in one update but I'll make it a priority
2-For the icon, at my knowledge the only way to remove it is to disable the notifications in your SMS app, then you'll have to rely on my app for the visual icon and the notification sound/vibration (by ticking the box in the advanced options)
4-I'll take a look, the slide down mechanism can surely be improved.
Feature Requests:
-I can do the same thing I've done with my last app, allow classic notifications to be displayed by enabling the "Accessibility Service" for my app in the phone options but you won't be able to interact with these notifications except discarding it. This in my todo list but after some features I want to add to Facebook/Twitter (like pictures of contacts or articles)
-Totally do-able and will be done in a few updates
-Vibration and sounds for each notifications: will be done ASAP, this is something lacking for a release I have to admit. For custom sounds instead of the default one for sms, I'll take a look and I'll add it at the same time if it's fast to implement or a bit after otherwise (sorry it's a bit vague )
Bugs:
-I reproduced the error and found the solution, it will be in the next update
Etc:
-For the twitter text, yes I need to resize the image, there's a lot of blank space in it, that's why the text is not aligned ^^
Thanks for the report, if you want to be a beta-tester for future app, you will be welcome

Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
What type of notifications did you choose ? (SMS/Facebook/Twitter/RSS)
For Facebook/Twitter/RSS it can take a few seconds before informations are retrieved, depending on your connection, also messages are downloaded only once so if you deleted a notification (accidentaly or not) or the app was stopped for a reason or another, it is possible that you need for new notifications to be displayed. It's not perfect on this state but I'm working on a much better system where notifications "survive" the app shutdown (which the phone can do if you use another app which is memory expensive for example).
For SMS do you have a third-party app for SMS like Go SMS or Handcent ? In this case you can try this :
Go SMS: Settings-> receive settings -> uncheck second option blocking duplicate messages
Handcent: Settings ->Application Settings -> Default Messaging Applications -> Disable
A reboot can be necessary.
But maybe your problem is elsewhere. You said the notification bar was blank, do you mean it covers your usual notification icons? Was it in the app settings? (where it should be transparent blue). Was it blinking ? The bar position in the main settings was left right or center ? Could you please provide some screenshots ?

For now sms only disabled any other sms notifications, here is what happens. It covers every thing even reboot dialog.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
Ok.
Second screenshot is the normal state of the app when the notification panel is completely deployed and there is no unread sms.
First one looks like you had one message and you were pulling it down. If that's the case there s nothing abnormal, notification panel looks that empty in vanilla 4.1. Do you have difficulties pulling it back up? What is strange for you? Sorry if I m missing something.
For the reboot dialog, you'll have to pull up the notification panel first, I cannot detect when it's showing.
I've been looking high and low for something like this, thanks!

Great! Tell me if you encounter any problems!
First update is on the way with the "Vibration" fix; the text for remaining days for trial version and the fix for disappearing notifications if the service was stopped/restarted by the system.
It might take a few more hours, if my download of Black Mesa finishes before I upload the update
I don't know whether or not it is just me, but I've been noticing that when the drawer scrolls back up (like when using the settings shortcut in the drawer) it will scroll back up incredibly slow (it takes about 2-3 seconds to disappear entirely again). Also, if I try to move the drawer down while on the lockscreen, it will bounce up and down and then disappear. I've also been getting errors on facebook login, "This app is misconfigured for facebook login." These are the only issues I've encountered, other than that, I'm really liking it.

Yes the scrolling up is slow on some phones at least and it will be improved (especially for the settings shortcut).
For the lockscreen it's a known issue, and a solution will be soon added.
The facebook error is strange, I've never encountered it, when does it happen? At the first login or at random times ? Did you succeed in retrieving any facebook infos? Do you have the Facebook app installed ? (I tested on a phone with Facebook app and it worked great but it's still a good indication). Do you think you could screenshot it if it happens again ? Thanks
And by the way, what phone do you have ?
I've been using this for around two days, so far so good. I would just recommend improving the speeds of dragging up and down, and maybe removing the am/pm from the time! Jelly bean doesn't show the am or pm. Also, when I get a text, the status bar blinks on and off on top over my regular one. Is that supposed to happen?

Hello!
Thanks for reporting, speed for panel sliding on/off will be improved.
Ok for AM/PM, It's the 24h format in my language so I did notice it only yesterday when I was taking screenshots for the english version.
Yes it blinks to display the icons and their notification count because I cannot add it to the regular one for each type of notification and partial transparency or complete occlusion of what could be beneath in the original bar didn't seem to be a good solution. Well it's not perfect and I'm open to suggestions but it will be soon customizable in speed and you'll also be able to remove it.
Sorry, but may I know when the next update is coming? Any ETA? I really can't wait! Hahaha
Bug report :
RSS, Twitter etc doesn't update. Only updates the first time you activate it
Today or tomorrow for the update
I played black mesa a bit and then had a big headache maybe because of the strange head bobbing on horizontal movement... :-s.
Your problem is strange, for me RSS and Twitter work well, does it update if you click again on " activate" ?
Been using my GS3 for about a week now, and have come across a few bugs and just wondering if anyone has any solutions to them. I have searched and haven't found the answers I'm looking for.
1. Swipe keyboard not recognizing words
Some words don't show up on my swipe keyboard, no matter how perfect I swipe them. However, if I type out the word and then select it in the predictive words list it will then show up if I swipe it.
2. Faded colors on lock screen
I know that it is caused by the ripple effect, but does everyone have this problem? Maybe I just didn't notice it before, but it only seems like it started yesterday. Not sure if there is a way to get it to work or not.
3. App order in list
This one isn't really a bug, just a pet peeve. Is there any way to make the apps list in alphabetical order?
EDIT:
4. Texts not sending
Every once in a while, every text I try to send comes back with a failure. It will eventually work, but after at least one resend. Not an issue with service, because I have bars. Also not an issue with receiving a text/phone call at the same time. Anyone else experience this?
I think I have more, just can't think of them right now, but thanks!

Woo! One down! Don't know how I missed that, thanks!
#1 - Try a diffferent swipe keyboard, I prefer touchpal, it's free/ad-less and is a very good learner
#2 - Not sure what you mean by faded colors? I haven't been on Touchwiz in a while but I'm guessing that the lockscreen puts a 'haze/fade' over everything as an effect kind of like AOSP does.
#4 - There's another thread of someone complaining about this also, I personally haven't run into it on this phone.
#1 are you using the actual swype keyboard or he Samsung keyboard with swype knock off? If its the swype try adjusting the speed vs accuracy setting. Also try to curve around the letters you don't want picked up If its the Samsung... switch to swype.

Also not sure what you mean with number two, but just change the wallpaper if the ripple effect is causing problems ice just turn off the ripple effect.

The keyboard is very usable, but might take a little attention at first. Large fingers might want a stylus
What are the changes!!!!
Maybe i can give one or 2 stars extra on the review.
...Nope, the contents is still not good readable with no formatting text and line breaks.
Even a <br> in the text is just shown as <br> and not a line break.
The only thing i see is the background is different. But not worth an extra star on my review.
I will still test the app on every new change. And i will change my review on the app, according what i appreciate it for.
I cant find your app....
For Android 4.4+ in Samsung Gear Store.
Maybe you have to update the Samsung Gear App.
Thanks
Maybe that's why... Still on 4.3
Is there any way to change the background? I don't like the defaults. Also I think it would be useful to cut off the title of group hangouts.

Personally i like a dark theme better.
I'd even go for straight black since it's an AMOLED screen. It would use up less battery and match my current white on black themes.
Also, I'd like the text boxes to be white text with a black background.

This version is really nice.
I like how you found a way to keep the app running. I hope this will make the app more stable.
Am giving it a try again for a couple of days.
You could put sound in this program? not only vibration?
Greetings!
I'm already really impressed now. It's really stable, no missed messages yet. No showing the app when not used. And good readability using a smaller font. My font size choice is 18.
I changed my review of the app. And you would like what i have wrote.
There are only two issues from a 5 star.
1) To have a button for every message to open the message app on the phone, dismiss the message and move back out of the watch app with just one button press.
2) To back out of the app when the message is cleared from the phone. And no messages left to see.
The next will be nice to have extra.
- Different title font setting
- Dark theme.
- Enable the app on default after installation
- Having the two buttons (disable and exit) into a menu.
- Easy scrolling to top of the message.
This app is so good now. I am using it now as main and only notification app.
This is the best notification app out of all other 4 apps.
Really good job!
I hate it to be the only one on this thread to post comments about the app. Especially bad ones, or bug.
But i stumbled on two issues.
When bluetooth is disconnected or the watch it out of range. And a message has raised, this messages won't be sent to the watch when bluetooth has re-established the connection.
I use Tweetcaster for Twitter as twitter app. And when the app gets a message from this, the contents on the watch shows the contents twice with exact the same text. So this is one message from the twitter app and one message on the watch.
These are screenshots from the twitter app...
There are some more problems.
First sometimes the apps hangs and doesnt get messages. Rebooting the watch doesnt help. Pressing the enable/disable button also not. Pressing the exit button and reopening the app does.
Second the are a couple of seconds after a notification before it gets to the watch. And a bit more after the situation of the first has been resolved. Perhaps a reboot of the phone solves this.
Third, the battery usage on the watch is a bit higher. About 10% a day.
Version 1.4.0 has sent to Samsung:
