My girlfriend's Epic does something strange, whenever you scroll screens, especially the home screens, the GPS icon flashes for a couple of seconds. It did this on stock, went away when flashed cm7, and now it's doing it again. It does this with all launchers as well.
Is there a program that can trace what is activating this?
Thanks in advance.

You could use aLogCat to view the OS logs it is available in hte market, though it may be a weather app or facebook, could also be some type of malware as well.
Beautiful widgets?

I have beautiful widgets on mine and it didn't do it. It flashes every time you scroll.
Didn't think about trying log cat.
What's a good malware scanner?

Beautiful Widgets Settings -> Set Location -> Make sure 'Geolocation' is unchecked
Thanks all. It only does it when Force GPS is checked in bw.

That's a big negative ghostrider. You have use either ADW or launcher pro.
Thought so but sometimes people pull stuff out of their arses

The cyan dragon theme has a Rosie that gives the illusion of a five button rosie. But like other said having five buttons on sense not possible ...yet.

Has anyone figured out a way to keep the screen on when maps is on? I know Sprint Nav will stay on, but I would like to keep maps on without the screen timing out. You would think Google would have a feature that when plugged in would allow certain apps to keep the screen on.
I know it sounds like I'm plugging the hell out of it lately (it has so many features), but widgetsoid had a toggle to keep screen on

Removed the weather widget from my home screen.
When I put it back it is only 2 wide, not 4.
Any ideas why or how to fix?

Place the widget and then press,and hold until trash can appears, let go and it will give you the option to resize
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
I think you can resize it by long pressing the widget, releasing and then you should see a little resize indicator in the bottom right corner of the widget. Drag that to resize how you want.
EDIT: Beaten to the punch!
Brilliant. A nice little feature.

This seems like a good place to ask a quick question then, can you resize all or most widgets? Or just a few like the weather widget mentioned above?

Anyone else got this?

For me too. Doesn't matter GSM or WiFi.
Seems to be working fine for me. Maybe the weather is just always the same where you are?
Is it based on location?
Yes location based.
Its not always the same weather. The time of update doesn't change either

It seems the background accuweather task gets killed occasionally?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
same here.
this widget updates only manualy.
same as stock exchange widget
Yeah, the Samsung Accuweather widget updated sparodically, and never updated the location. After hoping for a few days that it would work properly, I decided to get the Weather channel widget from Market and it is working really well.
I wonder if there's an app / whitelist somewhere in the configuration files that the task could be added to so its not closed?

I can't seem to get this launcher to stick.
I'm not rooted btw. Tia
It's been a while but I think the trick is to remove ALL of the widgets from the touchwiz screens. I fought with the same issue when moving from my Charge to the Note 3.
Edit: I'm still not rooted either.

does that include folders?
Can't say for sure. I deleted everything and started clean - no apps, no widgets, nothing. I think the widgets are all that matter since many of them are always "active".

Nothing?
I will be setting up my wife's Note 2 this weekend with ADW. Will keep notes as to what I had to do and will pass it along. I know it was the same issue with Charge and this beast.

Try long pressing the home button, then select task manager, then select clear defaults and then clear the default launcher. When you press the home screen again it will ask which launcher, select ADW and tap always.

Yep That will do it.

OT: I conversed with you over at the Charge forum. I got my Note3 last Wednesday, I'm in love and my wife's jealous. She got a S4 and is complaining about her battery running down.
On Topic: I'm using Next Launcher and didn't have any problems with it and my touchwiz setup.
