Hi,
I've been using my new HD2 for almost a week and I'm very happy with it. I've a little problem, however, that the special function of the side bar has disappeared. That is, when you press the side roll bar, it will become bigger and make you easier to control and roll the bar up/down. But this morning when i press the side bar, it doesn't enlarge itself, though i'm still able to roll it up and down. I really love to have it enlarged when pressed. Can you tell me how to make this function work again? Thanks.
noticed mine has disapeared too, i had to hard reset my phone for a different reason and it still hasnt come back. i`d really like it back too.

I think they're talking about scroll bars that get bigger when you put your thumb/finger on them.
Guys - what applications are they not working in? Do they work, for example, in file explorer?

its not present in any applications, its like it was an app itself and somehow been deleted. like i said i`v hard reset a couple of times for various reasons but been missing that scroll bar icon for a while now. to me its not the end of the world but it can be a bit fiddly at times.
You know what? This is totally strange!
Reading this post I said to myself: let's check. Stupor, the magnifying part of the scroll bar is gone, vanished!
I wonder if the guys from HTC are aware of that…
Well mine still works. Have you guys been adding any theme mods?
Maybe you folks changed the theme?
The biggie smalls scrollbars only work on the default HTC Black theme, if you select one of the WM6.5 designer themes or download your own the magic scrollbars will be turned off.

You're right! I changed back from Rock and Republic black theme to HTC Black and is working.
maybe it can be done a port of it on the other themes.

Maybe, that would be nice.
The thing that's stopped me from getting new themes for the HD2 is exactly the loss of those scrollbars.

There's a lot of apps you can download that changes the lookscreen and adds customizability

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.appplus.hilocker&hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achep.acdisplay
do any of these work with fingerprint scanner? CM says it does, but i don't see the option in their menu -- just pattern or password.

Guys, can I hijack this thread to ask if your backlight is on when you use a pure black wallpaper as your lock screen wallpaper?
My blacks are pure black when I open my screensaver in the gallery (if i tap the screen to remove the UI, I can't see the screen at all in a dark room) and it's the same for most screens except for the lock screen. In the lock screen it almost appears gray or it appears like it's affected by backlight bleeding. Just wanted to find out if it's a software bug (since it's almost like the Night Clock bug) or if it's a defect with my phone. I also cleared my cache with no success.
Also, how do you take a screenshot of the lock screen?

Not sure if they work with the s6 edge, might have to wait for that support. I'll personally just wait for xposed to be updated so i can get fun stuff like wanam xposed, and just live with the current launcher, as i really like the fingerprint scanner.

You can change wallpaper by long pressing on an empty space in the homescreen. It goes into edit mode and you will see a wallpaper icon and label at the bottom left. Tap that and you are directed to another menu to select whether to apply your wallpaper to just your home or lockscreen or both. You can also go to settings>wallpaper to change wallpapers.
As for the weather, the design changes accordingly with the theme you choose.
Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for sharing guys. I wonder if there's a way to get rid of that white status bar I have in the lockscreen. It just looks so ugly. Hopefully an upcoming FW update from my carrier would fix it. :fingers-crossed:
Does someone know how to get the wallpaper the S6 gets when it's on update mod? Blue cyan w/bugdroid on the middle. I really love it
Simple look.

Hi you all!
I'm so disappointed that after months there's still no stand-alone app which is able to pull down the notification bar and the quick settings of my device since the Lolliflop upgrade. I've downgraded once (was forced to upgrade again), contacted developers, today Samsung's customer support. What's left to do? Do I really need to downgrade once again? Is it really that hard to write an app like this?! Where are the developers?! Please help!
Many greetings

Unfortunately they don't work in landscape mode for Note edge. .. [emoji20]
Any ideas to fix?
Really? Well, in landscape mode you can reach the status bar anyway much easier.

Not on note edge... there is no status bar in landscape mode....
This is good because space isn't wasted when for example u r using navigation...
But it would be good to be able to get notification bar down from the edge so that location can be turned on quickly when using navigation...
Thought this app would do it... but only works in portrait.
Can't you just swipe down from the top? What am I missing?
This: one hand use!

Swipe from the middle right edge to the center of the screen and back. It should shrink the screen for one hand use.
Thank you, but I know this gesture already. ?
Conceding defeat on this one. ...
I have the key features I need as shortcuts on an edge panel instead.
I am glad the status bar is hidden in landscape mode. .. means more usable screen area

I haven't tried this specifically... but not sure it will work when the edge is at the top in landscape mode.
Have you been able to do this on the note edge?
It seems as if the edge blocks the notification panel coming down. ... no matter what app tries to bring it down.

Ah, I see. Sorry, I'm on a standard Note 4 can't help you there
But you could download the free version and give it a try, you never know.
EDIT: Just to confirm it DOES work in landscape mode on the standard Note 4.
Try this app, you can use it to customise the buttons or enable swipe actions to open notification bar etc

From 1st to 4th... New lock screen, new recents, new notification shade (2 pics).
7/8/16- Download latest version of Good Lock app (v24.0.11)
what is this? it doesn't look like anything out right now....how did you get it?
Apparently you can download the apk from sammobile but it's not working for me... I get a parsing package error. I'm on 5.1.1 when I tried this so you probably need 6.0.1 for it to work. On sammobile, the post was towards s7/s7e users through...

quick review:
1. it looks nice, but you can't change the color of the notification panel and toggles
2. the recent apps screen reminds me of older android versions, no picture or tabs, just the name of the app
hope they update it with some more settings

You can change the colours by editing the default routine, or creating a new one.

Same problems as you. Uninstalled....... for now. Hopefully it gets lots of updates with new features, bug fixes, etc. That'd be really awesome. Can't wait to see how this develops.

I HATE how the navbar turns to black on most apps.......it is so annoying
Samsung is like "here, have this beautiful, large, near-bezelless screen.....but lets shut a portion of the AMOLED screen off on the bottom with a HUGE BLACK BOX THAT MAY AS WELL BE A BEZEL."
Shouldn't there be an option to make it transparent like it is when you're on your home screen...or at the very worst, just shaded like when you're in Bixby?
Was already answered on OT
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.damianpiwowarski.navbarapps
is transparent in some apps - i guess its app dependent - but it reverses to black/white or whatever is your selected colour when typing or so
i guess it's up to the app developers to allow it in their apps

what apps is it transparent in for you...because I can't find a single app where it is still transparent (other than Bixby and the home screen)?
well out of the top of my head?

No matter what I change, I can't get it to stay white. It basically makes the onscreen navbar and softkeys appear to be on a huge black bezel.

Immersive mode looks amazing on this phone. Haven't had any issues with any apps. Do note that some apps, like Samsung messages, have their text field all the way at the bottom - so it's a little annoying to swipe up to bring up the navigation bar since it also touches the field which brings up the keyboard. It takes a bit to get used to on certain apps.
The app i'm using to get the Immersive mode toggle is ShortCutter Quick Settings - from the play store.
Dumb question: how to activate the immersive mode?

Exactly! what would be perfect is the opaque way it looks on the launcher screen. I've looked everywhere and tried all different things but for some reason thats just not a thing! Would be so good is Navbarapps had an option to toggle transparency

Am I wrong? When I just got the S8 it seems most apps had the nav bar transparent. Even twitter, Chrome, etc.
Now it's always black. Only transparent/ opaque in some Samsung native apps.
I thought the whole point was to make it less bezel.
Any idea what's going on?
