Yep, i've seen it too and don't know what it is. What I do know is that the icon is named icon_iframe in the opera skin file. Maybe that does ring a bell with you? Here, it stays very silent
Strange, but glad i'm not just seeing things! hehe. Not seen it since i posted about it, lets hope ignorance is bliss...

A joke would be to make a skin for opera and replace this icon by for example: (since it does nothing and means nothing and only randomly pops up only once a week ....)
Hah, or 'click here'
Do you use full screen mode? I do and that is the icon that is there except when I am scrolling. Clicking it brings up the "non-fullscreen" style menu. Not sure why you would see it there otherwise.

Yea i have 'auto full screen' selected in options, and clicking the icon does nothing.
I have that problem as well. I don't know what is is. Never botherd me.
Well guys if it's name is Icon_iFrame then it should bring up some menu for iframe element in html. Or maybe loading the page in iframe as a new tab. But I really dont know, just guessing =)

Hello all,
Does anyone here use PocketCM (an iPhone-like application for contacts)? It's a great program and works really well except when I try to install and select a new theme. When I go to the settings and press "Choose Theme", it only lets me choose one theme (the defaul), and I can't scroll over or anything to select a different theme. I hope this makes sense, and I hope someone out there knows something about this. I was gonna post in the forum on PocketCM's website, but I can't register in it for some reason. Please help me out if you can! Thanks!
-- Nick
Nevermind -- I figured out a way that works (even though it's very inconvenient)

no harm dude, but i think almost everyone here uses pocketcm lol
How does one search for a contact with this pocketcm ? Dont tell me one has to go click on every alphabet? Say I want to look for Jayne - cant I just type Jay etc and out pops Jane or wutever else?

No. You can slide your finger down either the left or right side of the touchscreen and when you release your finger it will jump to that alphabet in your list.

Yes. Just start typing and PocketCM will narrow down your list of contacts which match the characters you typed.

Haha, I wasn't sure.
Anyway, I guess another question is, does anyone have trouble when sliding, and the program will just randomly decide that you meant to press on a name instead of sliding? If that makes sense...?

Errr type where??
I use PocketCM also. I do experience a little glitch when searching the contact alphabetically, when scrolling from the left; it will sometimes show my favorite contacts instead. Does anyone experience this also?

Just slide out your keyboard and type.
But if without the keyboard? How?
Pocket CM disappointment
I'm actually pretty disappointed when it comes to this app, for a two reasons:
1) it randomly hangs: sometimes when I'm scrolling the display just stops working and in my impatience i continue to click and before I know it I've either called someone that I didn't mean to, or i've opened someone for editing.
2) side scroll (alphabetically) does not work worth a damn. It NEVER goes to the letter that I specify, always stops short. I would say that this happens randomly... but no, it happens consistently, every time. Any ideas what is causing this? The only time is seems to work is when I'm going upwards.
Does anyone have any ideas about these two problems ?
Thanks.

I don't have any ideas about those two problems (sorry), but I'm also a little disappointed with the app. Like why I orinigally started this thread, it's such a hassle for me to install new skins because it doesn't work like it's supposed to. Or the inconsistent scrolling, or the hanging like you mentioned.
Also, (although this is minor), has anyone else noticed that if you leave Pocket CM open and go back to the Today screen, and lock the buttons, the top eighth of the screen or so shows the Pocket CM app, and everything else is the Today screen? Does that make sense? Anyway, it's a minor detail, but it's kind of a sore-sight. Has anyone been able to fix this?
A black square pops up at the top of the screen when browsing in Opera and does not go away. What on earth is it?

I have the Blackstone and cannot figure out what black square you're referring to on the browser. Care to be more specific?

He is talking about the Opera Browser you can see in all the HD videos. When the phone is switched to landscape mode it is displaying a strange black square at the bottom. i dissapears when you scroll on a page but when you stop its suddenly there again.
That's it Raziel1. I see it in the videos on Youtube. When you scroll it vanishes but when you stop it comes back again. I am so puzzled as to what it is for.
its the new zoom feature isn't it? when u hit it it brings up a zoom scroll bar so you can zoom as much or as little as you want instead of just double tapping the screen.
to the OP, are you sure it's at the TOP? there shouldn't be anything at the top. there should be TWO black squares at the bottom corners (one on each side), regardless of orientation. the left one is zoom, the right one is new page (or shrink current page to a tile).
Ok go here to see a video of it:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=TykCSs44TAs
Move the progress bar below the video to 4minutes and 6 seconds and watch fro there onwards. Clearly seen in landscape browsing. What is it and can it be disabled in options?

So of all the people who seem to have the phone, no one can tell me what that square is yet?

looking at the newest youtube videos, it seems that this square was just part of the prerelease version. more a bug than anything else maybe.
Hi, I have never posted in these forums before but I have been using them ever since I had my tmobile wing.
Anyway today my friend asked to see my G1 and idk what he pressed or did but my applications tab was on the right side of my screen while my phone was in portrait mode. It looked sweet it slid out and all the icons were small. How do you do this? When I opened and closed my phone the tab returned to nomal.
My phone is rooted by the way with JFv1.42_RC33 as my rom.
that happens to me all the time
its a software glitch
i just restart my phone
It really doesn't matter to me because the dock is fine at the bottom, but I think being able to dock the application tab on the bottom, top or sides would just add to each users comfort and enjoyment.. and we all like to be able to customize various aspects of our G1, so why not the dock location?

Do you know how to make it happen? or does it just happen randomly?
its never happened to me but i think it's just a random glitch that happens when you open the keyboard.
but from the screenshots of it someone posted a while back, it does (in my opinion) look much better.
as far as i know, no one's been able to 'recreate' it.
This happens to me all the time on the h build. So annoying, it's like the phone doesn't know its in landscape mode. The tab gets in the way of the shortcuts etc. I can't wait to get back to G

Happens to me randomly, usually when I close the keyboard and rotate the phone at the same time.

no offence, but thats not what the OP was talking about. That's a known issue, rather than a random glitch.
Go the thread on adding features in the development forum, and download the launcher.apk there. Problem solved.
After installing the update from TMO, The little bar that flips between mail, home, internet, images, music, etc. "shrinks" into a little black tab in the middle of my screen at the bottom.
This is super super annoying because it takes an extra effort to click on the damn thing and then slide my finger to scroll. This also requires a second tap on the screen when i go to browser because the first one simply 'collapses' the little thing and the second one will actually respond to the internet icon you're tapping on.
Tell me there's a way to turn off the collapse of this stupid thing. I tried looking on here but I don't know what keywords to use to search this out. Something like 'htc sense update hd2 registry change' yields nothing.
TIA

It sounds to me like you have cookies home tab enabled?! That is strange are you sure you didn't flash to a custom rom?! I have that one my phone and I have the update but the only way I was able to get that was with CHT. I have attached examples.
Yep! I do have cookies home tab installed! Dang..so is the setting in that to change it? :bangs head:
I'll take a look.
WTHAT A MORON. Thats its. The 'retractable slider' setting. I can't believe I didn't realize that was cookie and not HTC.
Thanks a million for pushing me in the right direction.
Awesome! Glad I could help! I had that enable for a while but it became a little annoying so I took it off! Hahahaha it does make it look really cool!
Hey, thanks for the info. I'm glad I learned about that.
I also have Cookies, and didn't know about that.
Now I have just enabled that feature. Why? I don't find that "ribbon" at the bottom very useful, as it is not very customizable. Nice to have the settings button there at the right, but one can also do that with a Quick Link. I like the music app, but one can also do a quick link for that. Withouth that ribbon, there is room for another row of quick links. (I find it unfortunate that that "ribbon" is so uncustomizable. You cannot choose what is in it, but only what to remove (other than settings and home). (I don't really need that home icon either, because there is a hardware button for home.) I don't like how that "People" tab goes to "HTC People". I'd rather go straight to the regular contacts list. But it can't be changed (AFAIK), only removed.
So by retracting it, I remove the whole thing (can slide it back if I want), but can put the links I like in that ribbon into quick links, for which there is now more room.
Thank you.
So Im just gettin started on modding my HD2, Ive got a lot to learn. I started with the easy stuff and loaded CHT. I notced that after it was loaded I couldnt manage the navigation bar tabs. In order to add, move or rearrange the tabs that are there I have to remove CHT and then make the changes. Is this normal? Is there another way to manage the tabs with CHT?
Also, I loaded BSB at the same. It never crossed my mind until now that maybe that is where the problem is. Could that be true?
ya gonna feel silly,,,,,,

Word +1 It is there...you just have to look a little harder. Save yourself some lost time!
Well, thats my problem. The "Personalize" tab disappears after I load CHT. When I remove it, the tab comes back. Ill post up a screen shot this evening.

I bet you it's still there...you just have to use your finger to swipe-scroll up and down the list of options there on the settings tab.
Hehe yea, whats betting the settings tab list starts ' security, application, sd card......'
Scroll up.
Ok, now I feel stupid.

43rd, by my count.
srsly, the "missing settings" phenomenon accounts for 86% of all noob moments here in this forum section
EDIT: just for the record, that made-up statistic above does include me as well...I fell prey to it just like so many others
Lol, ok. Now I feel a little better.
I always hear, "When you assume, you make an ass of you and me." And, well, I assumed the menu would reset to the top tab lol.
