i noticed this too...click on apps and then back and screen will be normal...

Pretty sure it's related to Page Buddy, which dims the screen in a similar fashion.

Show notifications in fullscreen

Hi,
Is there an option or an app to show a notification when it arrives if you are in fullscreen app/game. I know you can access notification bar by swiping from the top of the screen but I would like that notification (or notification bar showing the notification) shows automatically for a few seconds and then hide, something like on the iPhone. I would really appreciate your help because it's a very important and useful feature to me.
Thanks!

Question about stock email app

When I hover my finger above the recent emsil list the email turns blue and a small square with a triangle appears. What is this? And I still have to touch the screen to open the email so why the hover color change?

You have Air-View toggled on. It's main purpuse is for the S-Pen.. that same thing happens for Sms/Mms as well.

[Q] Notification bar/Quick tile settings

Just a random (but important) question: why do I get Quick Settings page as my default when I pull the notification bar down? Shouldn't it be the notifications page? And how do I change it? Running OmniROM 4.4.2 Nightly (26/1/2014)

You should only have quick settings when swiping down from the upper right corner. You can change this under settings -> notification bar. If it's happening generally when swiping down i don't know. Sorry

So you have the smart pulldown enabled?

Yup you're right, but is there any way to change that? I don't see any settings related to that.

And you are sure you don't have quick pulldown enabled (Not the same as smart pulldown!)? It's in settings -> bars. That's the only thing i can think of...

Notification Pull-down Lag

About every twelfth time I pull down my notifications, the bottom half shows the app behind it. After about a second, the bottom changes to display the notification pull-down properly. Any ideas?
Edit: I forgot to mention I'm stock towelrooted, but had the same problem unrooted.

Same issue, though I have grown to ignore it.
