Hi there,
I am using a Bell (CDN) SGSII and have noticed that I am unable to sort the app drawer into list view. I'm not sure why this ability is not in the CDN version of the SGSII, but was wondering if there is a way to add it.
fyi...we're (CDN) cannot theme the sms thread as well - why would these capabilities be removed?
Hi
no you can do it !
Go to Applications (app drawer)>>>click settings button>>edit>> enjoy !

I've tried that already - there is no list view options.
Edit...
here is a screen cap of what I see...when i hit "edit" there is not option for list view, only save, cancel delete empty page etc.
Anything on this???? I'm on Virgin Mobile and I get the same thing. It's driving me crazy.
There is not even the ability to sort the apps.. Strange. Was there on my old gs 1.

I know. I've stumped all 3 Virgin Booth employees and 2 different Costco Wireless etc... booths
So I have no clue whats going on. I guess all that's left is to phone Bell and see what they've done to it.

Hi guys.
Something I've noticed happening every now and again, is some Apps moving from one page to another, without my input, and leaving blank spaces in the app grid view. It's been driving me nuts for ages! Has anyone else noticed this, and is there any particular reason?
Cheers
Yeah, I just started a thread on this and worked it out. Go to Settings> Applications>Running Services then click the "All" tab. Scroll down to TwLauncher and clear the data. This will reset your icons, so make a note what you have and where, and once it's setup, it should be good. Worked for me.
Also, does this happen when you either clear memory our reboot phone? If so this should do it. Let us know how you went.

Hi folks,
Want to hide you Honeycomb system bar easily ?
I found that app in the Xoom forum. It's and old post but lots of updates have surfaced since and it works great on my GT10.1 (Overcome 2.1). It should work on all rooted tablet.
What I like :
- Always visible shortcut in the bar
- Display it back by tapping/swipping from the bottom of the screen (no screen turn off with pin code stuff)
It's exactly what I had been dreaming of, so I thought it might worth sharing : http://ppareit.github.com/HideBar/. The APK is free to download. You can find it on that page
Please give credit to the developer if you like it!
Installed it and works great. Pretty easy to use.
Mine is rooted, but it doesn't really work.
Maybe I got it wrong, but you mean the bar in the bottom of the screen right?
I'm annoyed when I'm watching movies, and the bar in the bottom are faded out, but still there so the movie is not maximized.
It works just fine for me. I have to practice the uce. But I getvused to it.. we will se..
Nice tips.

Yep lovely. Great idea
Tried this app a few weeks ago but it didn't work - nice to see they fixed it .
But it brings one problem with it (well, more of an annoyance really). I keep my mobile connection disabled most of the time (I don't have an unlimited data plan) and when I reboot the tab, it shows a "You are not connected to mobile networks, so you can't ..." with the options "Connect" and "Cancel". Usually this wasn't a problem (it just appeared once after all, once you clicked "Cancel" it was done till next reboot) but it seems that when I "unhide" the bar, it checks for my mobile connection again and shows the annoying popup. I know I only have to click on the "Cancel" button and get on with my life but it's really annoying me
Anyone else has that problem? Or better yet, know how to fix it?
thank u so much man, this app is helping me a lot.
I remember trying it a couple months ago, but it didn't work with the gt. Sent the dev some feedback to let him know and he said he was working on it. Guess he did.

Hi..
I think you are one of few with out a dataplan. ;-) So now as soon as you hide the bar that message appears? Thats anoying. How do you disable data on your pad, under settings?
Have you tried the other statusbar hiders.. there is two other apps for that.

Aye, I'm mostly on Wi-fi anyway . And the cellular data where I live really isn't fast enough yet that you could be working comfortably on it (I don't live in the city) - so I went with the 1GB dataplan (more then enough for mails and other important stuff) - I can go over the 1GB for free, but they cut down the speed back to normal GSM after that 1GB.
Other dataplans were just too pricy (can't really affort 30€ in addition to other expenses right now ).
You can disable data under settings, wireless and networks, mobile networks. The message doesn't appear when I hide the bar, but when I swipe to get the bar back - but you're right, it's still annoying (I'm getting used to it though ^^).
Thanks for sharing! Really nice option to have when reading books, comics or painting.
Thanks here as well.
Working good so far on Bonsai ROM. I had supported another developer who was working on something similar but he never got it off the ground. Nice to see someone worked out this 'should have been in the default' feature.
nice .thx for sharing.

So...this app doesn't unhide my status bar. It's getting root, does anyone have any suggestions on getting this to work?
Edit: bah, I just got it to randomly work but I couldn't do it again, back to honeybar. I like the idea though!

Unhidding it is not as instant as it usually is in Windows when you auto-hide the system bar for instance (no nasty comments please... )
To unhide the systembar with this app, you have to tap/swipe the bottom of the screen a couple times (everywhere seems to work), and wait 2 or 3 seconds before it comes back. Hope this explanation helps... Let me know.
Btw, apps fan, don't miss the great Google sale going on in the Android Market! 10 cents for great apps, this is huge! I am not a big app buyer but this time I think I'll spend a bit...
It doesn't work for p7510 running Gtask V7.0
It doesn't ask for root, it crashes ("not responding") but it shows an icon .. it just doesn't do its job.

Correction, it does work. It just "hiding" Superuser root request for some reason (noticed it in superuser logs). So I "clicked" the hidebar icon when the superuser app was in front - and I saw the request.
G'luck.
Love this app, works great with overcome. Way better than the power menu hidebar mod!
Updated version 0.10 is out. Links in OP.

Hi all,
I just wanted to see if other people are getting chat heads(new messenger update) to work. It doesn't appear for me on my DNA, but other people seem to have it working on their phones.
Thanks in advanced!
Working great for me. Enabled SMS integration in the app and now all of my SMS messages pop up too. Really nice feature honestly.

Works for me too!
working here. emojis are a nice touch... but i can't see ones people are sending me... oh well.
interesting well glad its working for you guys - I am not sure what I need to do - should the chat head be automatic? I am getting SMS alerts to messenger - just no chat head showing.
in the messaging app for facebook... go to settings>notification settings> should see a box for "chat heads". enable it. i also made it my main texting app(also in the settings but under sms/mms) not sure if that has anything to do with it though...
Thanks, it looks like I don't have an option for chat heads in the notification settings like I should .. interesting .. I'm on version 2.4.2 build 178229

I cannot see the Chat Heads options in settings (
I can't get the chat-head's option to show up in settings on my Nexus 4 either. I've tried rebooting and clearing all app data, but nothing.
I found the APK for the new Facebook Home application.. it's only for specific devices as of right now... any way to install on our device to test it out?? Do I have to do something crazy like edit build.prop???
I can't get it to show up on mine, either. Reinstalled both facebook app and messenger app to latest versions. Just don't see any option in notification settings..
Here's what I tried and no go:
Uninstalling/reinstalling both messenger and facebook
clearing app data
reset/shutdown phone
and the combination of the 3
I'd be curious if it started working if you changed your build.prop device entry to one of the strings from a phone that is working. Seen this behavior before, far too often, in apps. Restricting settings based on device model, etc, when they're perfectly capable of working on others.
Chat head hhmmm interesting..
Facebook really top it with this

Yea, I am using a HTC one x, and have just updated from an AOKP rom to a cyanogen mod rom. So supported device and no go. Seen the settings on my girlfriends stock galaxy s 3, and have seen the settings and heads working. The thing is, a friend has cyanogen mod on an unsupported phone and it works.. So I have no idea at all.
I did try to get Facebook home working before during the leaks, and am running android 4.2.1... They're the only things different to everyone else maybe????
For people that have it working and not working, what are your setups? Phone models, roms and their bases? There must be a common factor here, or a mod to enable it... :silly:
Do you have corporate email setup on your phone? I was thinking if it can disable this feature...

No, totally clean install with nothing but the two Facebook apps!
It's working for me, too. Perhaps 'cause I'm on a Sense 5 ROM?
Same problem
I am running cyanogen mod (nightlies) on galaxy s3. Same issue, I tried many things including clearing cache yet no option in messenger for chat heads..
I ran across this article today and thought I would share it. It's only applicable to touchwiz roms. No aosp. It just basically allows access to hidden system settings. Just more modding, especially for those stuck on ME7 and looking to change anything.

Download Google gesture search from the play store. Once downloaded open it up go into settings then uncheck and recheck settings. Go back out and write “Pen" and it show show up pen settings then open it up and enable the air view feature. Make sure you make it like readable like a big P E N

The same here. Maybe deleting the application data in the application manager could fix it.

Same issue here.
Unfortunately even ROM reinstall couldn't fix it, so I guess Google stores it online, but I didn't see an unhide option.
Does anyone found a solution?
Anybody got an update on this? I tested the hide option on my WIFE and can't get her back! yeah, I can type her name in and create a new hangout, but that's a lot more effort while driving than simply hitting a big icon of her face!
Thanks.

Unfortunately I didn't found an option to this. I think it's pathetic.
Me neither. I really dislike hangout. Beside that stupid bug, since I installed hangout even when I don't have any nerwork, I'm considered online 24/7 to people even when I just wish to be left alone and not be reachable offline. I checked there is a hangout/gtalk session that stay active 24/7 I tried the tricks to kill it with pilgrim but it comes back.
This is really uncomfortable. I sometimes just wish to be offline or invisible, I'm actually thinking of disabling definitely gtalk/hangout...
You can sign out in the settings.

For the hide issue, I think it is same as removing in older gtalk version. You have to invite that person again to unhide him/her.

I don't think so, because on PC I'm using the old google talk client and the friend who i accidentally hid in hangouts is still visible in my contact list as online.

Have you tried inviting her again with hangout? I don't use hang out, so I can't be sure, but I think there must be a way to readd, if not unhide, your contact.

There is no readd because he is in my contact list (phonebook, gtalk) just hidden from the recent hangout list. I can send a message too and vica-versa.
It's not a big issue for me, I just think it's pathetic that there is a hide option, but no unhide or manage hidden contacts or something.

I just tried that but the ghost idle away session is still active even after disconecting from app. And l checked in gmail the other active session button and made sure to disconect them all. But I'm still 24/7 idle away. I hate that, specially right now where I really don't want people to see me or try to contact me. I have to block them so that they don't see me online it's pathetic ! Like hunfatal said. F... hangout.
I have the same issue and it does not appear that google implemented a way to unhide them.
