Why some apps are zoomed in - very large text - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hello,
I'm running AKOP 4.2.2 and everything running smoothly. I have one app called Sipdroid and when I open it everything is zoomed in very close so the text and icons in the app appear very large. I cannot figure out how to zoom back out. I do not have any accessibility function turned on. This problem also happened on my S3 with AKOP rom but I'm not sure what is causing it. Please advise. THank you

Hiding the navigation bar bug cm10.1

Just recently installed cm10.1 on my new nexus 4 and I'm really irritated by this bug that wasn't in the stock 4.2.2. When you use a third party app to hide the navigation and system bar to make it full screen and then show it again, everything works fine until you try to press the multitasking button on the right to show recent apps and it doesn't work. You have to put the device to sleep then wake it again to get it working properly again. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the rom because I've tried it with different apps like full!screen and GMD Gesture Control and they both cause the same problem. I would really like a way to get more screen space and put it back to normal conveniently without bugs maybe someone could help me with this problem maybe I'm doing something wrong idk but help would be great.
I'm running the latest nightly which is I think from today the 26th
I would report the bug officially but I don't know how

[Q] Nexus homescreen wallpaper issue.

Hi there! My name is Ben and im owning this nexus 4 phone for a month more or less. Since I bought it this forum has been an awesome place to look for answers as my last phone ran android 2.1. A genius friend of mine installed the paranoid android ROM on my phone for me and I'm very happy with all the tweaks. One thing that keeps bothering me though is that ever since I got the phone, when I try to set a new wallpaper, despite the nice sketch of how it's going to look horizontally an vertically on the phone's screen, it crops only the left side of the picture as a wallpaper, it comes out pixelated and swiping home screens doesn't scroll the wallpaper image. I've tried looking it up online, tried to mess with the phone settings, PA settings, launcher settings, but I just couldn't find a way to solve this. Ive tried the image 2 wallpaper app but it still doesn't put the wallpaper the way I set it and just crops only the left side, just less pixelated. I assume this isn't normal? as I said the problem existed even before the PA ROM was installed and that only confuses me more. Thanks in advance if you can help me! B
p.s. I'm running stock PA launcher, only used it to reduce the amount of home screen pages (now i have 3)
jellybean 4.3 with PA 3.99.

[Q] Google Chrome issue after 4.4.2 update

Hey guys
This is something new! Never seen it before! Anywhere!
After 4.4.2 update, my google chrome is having a problem.
I think the screen shot below is clear!
"Sooo, i cant upload pictures with my tab using chrome!!! This is another issue i guess!!!
The screen shot is a black screen, with a new tab icon only on top, whitch is not working, nothing else. Not a chrome logo in the midle, nothing"
It happens every time i run chrome, i have to end the app, (i have a commad for it in gmd gesture control)
Then remove it from recent apps then run it again to maks it work.
I unistalled all of its updates, cleared apps cash and data. Reinstalled updates, none helped.
In 4.2.2, when i opened the app, it used to show my favorites and i could open a new tab, or open my fav tabs.
Can anyone help?
Any suggestions?

Wallpaper bug - Wallpaper becomes zoomed in after some time?

I was glad to see that in KitKat they changed the wallpaper setter to simply set the wallpaper to full-screen without scrolling if you pick one that's the right resolution, e.g. 2560x1600. So you can see the entire picture, without using a separate app to set it. Unfortunately, it seems they couldn't even get this right. It sets fine initially, but after some time passes, the wallpaper randomly becomes zoomed in/cropped like it would have in the past. Setting it again fixes it, but only for awhile.
Does anyone have any insights into what's going on here?

S10+ - Not receiving notifications

Howdy everyone!
I am having an issue with my S10 not displaying notifications. The only notifications that work is the Messages app. When the phone is on a black screen, the Message app is the only one that will display and notify.
I want my other apps... Nest, Wyze, Meross, etc to do the same as the messaging app.
I have googled for hours and tried almost everything i can think of.
Help?
Are your notification settings turned on for each app under settings then notifications?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I checked for each app.. I have even compared to the actual message app that came on my device.
Beginning to notice this issue also
Since the April Update this happened. Looks like its not an "issue" but a system change.
There used to be a setting where you could turn the messages on/off etc...
For instance, i like that my edge panel lights up, and i get the icon on screen that i have a message.
My wife likes that message to be displayed on the screen so she can see it without having to actually go to it.
Now there is a little messges overlay for the stock app that pops up, similar to FB messenger, I actually like this idea, but that seems to be a huge change and i cant find the setting to revert to the old way.
