Stock Internet browser sometimes hide the address bar. Other times not. - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i wonder why sometimes when i am browsing the address bar gets hidden and other times not.
How to auto hide the address bar every time when i scroll down?

Mine never hides automatically. You have to press the tab if you want it to hide. But you have to do it every time.

This was one of the first things I noticed after updating to ICS.
Auto hide always worked on HC.
I use the Dolphin browser, which works fine.

Annoying bug with Launcher Pro

I just recently started hiding my notification bar with launcher pro and I noticed a weird bug with handcent SMS pop-up. When I go to do a quick reply the keyboard covers up the text box so I can't see what I'm typing. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

That is not a bug of LP.
Can't you disable the KB on the popups in HC? If the error is after you hit reply and bring up the KB, I'd be willing to bet that happens on ADW/TW too.

Basically I get a text and the window pops up. I tap in the quick response window and the KB pops up. When I have the status bar showing the quick response window moves up allowing me to see what I type. When I hide the status bar through LP settings the quick response window doesn't move up when the KB pops up. The issue only happens when I have the status bar is hidden.

I'm pretty sure that's a keyboard glitch. I also use Better Keyboard and get that on settings screens and such, but I use ADW. Although I also hide the status bar so maybe you're on to something.
So.... don't hide the status bar? Problem solved.
Well I've tried couple different keyboards and its the same with all of them. I like handcent for the custom notifications. I also like to hide my notification bar so maybe I'll let the dev of LP know about the bug.

I use SMS pop-up with adw and have not had this issue SMS pop-up also allows for custom tones for contacts. Hope that helps

This has been reported at handcent forum, although it happens whenever you receive a popup regardless of what app you're in, if the status bar is hidden (ie fullscreen browser, game, etc) so it being a LP issue doesn't look likely...

Notifications on Widgetlocker lockscreen

i have galaxy s2 with 2.3.6.I want notifications to be seen on widgetlocker lockscreen but i can't.I just see them on status bar of the phone that is at the top.
Need your help
Open the WL settings by choosing WL from app drawer, then use settings capacitative button on phone. Go to "popups" & make sure you have untoggled "hide sms popups."
EDIT: Meant to say go to "settings/popups."

That won't solve his problem. All that does is place a WL icon on the notification bar. He wants popups, I think.

Hmm. I don't know. I would suggest using the "report bug" option in WL settings menu to email the dev. He has been very responsive to my problems in the past. Sorry I couldn't help you more.
Just looking @ my gosmspro settings and I see that I had to specifically enable popups. What notifications are you wanting that you are not getting?

I got the SGS2 yesterday as well and have the same issue. No popups when i get a Text.
I was hoping to get the Notifications Bar. I have the SGS 1 and in the widget lockscreen i can pull the Notifications Bar down but with the SGSII this is not the case at least not with a PIN. I like to have a PIN on the phone but still be able to do simple things like read text messages or change a song. The sense lockscreen can do this.
I don't get why samsung made there lockscreen so plane that if you enable PIN,Password/Pattern you can no longer side to go in to message or call log. Was hoping the Notifications Bar would be a good work around but no go
I'm a little confused, so does the S2 have popup notifications for sms? I never seen them just get them in the little status bar...
I am running UnNamed rom, and using WL. On the WL screen, I have placed a scrollable widget, "Call Log Scrollable," available on the Market. It works fine, updating on top of the WL screen. (You have to have scrollable widgets enabled, but you can do this with a launcher program like Launcher Pro, without having to root.) I also have no problem with SMS popups from my GoSMSpro text program. These are all easy to use, and may solve your problem. None of this requires root.

Thanks this is somewhat what i was looking for. I see it has a widget, I would love it add it to my lockscreen but its just to big. Is there some small only that does not have all the buttons similar to the iphone?
Also I see the popup, but if i don't do anything an the screen turns off and later turn on the screen the popup is gone yet when you unlock it it's on your homescreen this is kinda annoyng which is why i think a small widget just on the homescreen would be best or similar

You can resize any widget on WL by opening the WL app from the app drawer, which will bring up the WL screen. Long press on the widget and you will get a popup menu allowing you to resize it. Be sure you are setting the icons as "widgets" and not as "shortcuts."
Not sure what you mean by being able to see the popup. Isn't that what you wanted to begin with - to have an sms popup appear on the WL screen?
Here is a shot of my WL screen.
can try downloading sms unread count from the market. i use that for calls/sms notifications.

What happens is that when you have Go SMS Pro popups active, the popup will show up on top of WidgetLocker just fine.
However, if you are reading the popup on top of WidgetLocker, and the screen turns off in the middle of reading it, turning the screen back on (in order to read the rest of the text message) will cause the popup to disappear and to have WidgetLocker go back on top of the popup.
Then when you unlock WidgetLocker, the popup is on your homescreen. It gets to be quite annoying.
It seems that Widgetlocker allows the popup to be on top only once, but doesn't let it continue to be on top. I've emailed the dev of WidgetLocker regarding this issue but never heard a response.
Another quirk is when you read the Go SMS popup on top of WL, then try to touch "open" to open GoSMS, it doesn't open GoSMS but instead goes straight to the stock lockscreen (and not widgetlocker), at which point when you unlock it, it then goes to Go SMS.
You can modify the WL screen timeout to a different setting from the system screen timeout, using the WL settings menu.
As for me, I don't want someone to be able to access GoSMSPro w/out going thru my lockscreen. Personal preference, I guess.

a bit of necromancy, but I happen to have same problem as OP. got free version of NOVA launcher, and widget locker (phone is rooted, and root helper is enabled). still no missed call/messages notification on lock screen. I even downloaded Tesla Unread, activated through locker widget settings, and still no notifications.
I'd appreciate any advice!

Dolphin Browser HELP!

Does anyone which version of dolphin browser has an address bar that automatically hides/shows but also hides the phones status bar? i swear i used to have it but can no longer find it. Dolphin Browser beta still shows the phone status bar with this feature enabled, and when you switch to full screen mode it no longer automatically show the address bar. Thanks

What's your current version? I don't remember the status bar, but some time ago Dolphin was auto-hiding the address bar, and now it doesnt. Didn't exactly catch when it dissappear, but just a week ago I upgraded to JB 4.1.2 from ICS. Maybe it's related? Because I've just tried most of available old versions of Dolphin, and neither of them has it. Though I could swear that some version from early autumn (this is when I started using it) definitely had the autohide feature.
I cant work this out.
I have three phones in front of me, only one will do it! (SGS4), Note2 and HTC One XL wont.
Is it new a 4.2 thing?
Try installing the Dolphin Jetpack in the Play Store. I believe that's what made my address bar auto hide.

Get rid of little toolbar in stock HTC browser?

I prefer the htc browser over chrome, but I keep getting this annoying scrolling bar at the bottom that has settings, facebook, ebay, tweet it, etc. I can X out of it, but then it's back the next time I open the browser, Any ideas?
In your settings there's a setting to turn the toolbar off. System settings. Not browser

That is the Luman Toolbar. While in the browser, pull down the notification window and tap on the Luman Toolbar in order to disable it.
I think

Phone keeps going back to 3 key navigation bar

I have the paid fluid navigation app that works awesome. I also did the adb trick in order to disable the native gestures. My issue is that every once in a while the system will keep reverting to the 3 key navigation bar setting even though I had it set to gestures. See below. I'm using Nova launcher prime as well. It's annoying to have to go back to settings and change it back to "gestures". Anyone having this or know why it's doing this?
I normally wouldn't care about this as it really doesn't affect my gesture navigations no matter what the native settings are set to, however I have noticed that whenever it's set to the 3 key bar, when I unlock my phone, the whole screen shifts down really quick to take up the space that was supposed to be occupied by the navigation bar, if that makes sense. If the setting is on "gestures" , nothing shifts and it's really smooth and seamless.
In fluid gestures try disabling any settings in the blacklist. I was having issues with the app constantly stopping after fiddling around I found doing this fixed all the problems.
It may help, can't be certain though.

I had 2 of the default settings activated in the blacklist section, I've turned everything off as you stated now. Let's hope that does the trick. Thanks!
