So I've been looking around for a way to pinch and zoom on the stock messaging app on my stock ROM. I am rooted. Any help?

Any ideas at all?

Pretty sure it doesn't do that, and no way around it AFAIK.

Yup, never heard of messaging app capable of doing that.
There has to be a way. My friend has the One X and she can do it stock. What I guess would work as a work around would the app, when a picture is tapped, save a temp and open in gallary. That's what the One X does.

Occasionally I will get a text that when I tap to open the image, it opens in Gallery, and allows me to do those exact same things as I could inside the Gallery app.

It seems that recently my calendar app just disappeared. It doesn't show in my app list but I can still add the calendar widgets to my home page. Is there some way of getting the app back?

I don't have it rooted or any roms installed. It was there like a week ago and then suddenly I go to use it and its not there. My phones pretty much the same as it was when I got it.

Try a factory reset. It's a known bug with the stock rom.

It drives me insane when I'm using the device one-handed and trigger this "feature" when I scroll near the edge of the screen...
Same here especially when trying to bring up the quick controls.
Same here on international version

There seems to be no option. The browser itself is one of the best stock browsers I've ever used. But I want to punch sammy in the throat at times for not allowing that to be turned off.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I agree I would also like it to be disabled. The other big annoyance in the stock browser is the double tap to zoom doesn't work (over zooms every time - naturally you have to be in desktop view to see this). There is a setting to alter it but it doesn't help. Firefox works correctly but I end up using the stock browser most of the time and just pinching.
I no longer have this problem. I was stock AT&T, then rooted, then running International ROM with a stock browser that doesn't have the edge zooming. Yes, it did annoy me when I had it.
Wow! You're right! I also changed to a different rom a while back but kind of forgot about the problem. I thought I was being more careful I guess. No! I forgot only because the problem was gone and didn't notice! Yet another reason to get off stock! Great info, big :Thumbup:

No movement on this topic I guess. This feature drives me nuts as well but I don't want to go to a different rom to resolve it.

Well you can also use a different browser - plenty of choices out there...

This actually occurs on the stock browser as well as other third party browsers...

Quick memo takes a screen shot, and it is programmed to the button by default. Simply hit the save icon and select gallery to save the shot to your sd card.

Camera for the moment
Would be great that the button wake the phone and launch the app! !
Voice search. Thinking about changing it though, not sure if I need that there. Not sure what else to put there though.

I haven't looked too far into it to be honest... From what little bit I have, it seems like it's just way too limited in what apps it works in. Being able to scroll by waving my hand over the screen is cool and all, but I'd rather just put my fingers another inch closer and actually touch the screen as long as I can sync my bookmarks, browsing history, etc in Chrome. To me, it seems to be too trivial of a feature to really go looking to see if some tweak or hack exists to make it work in more places than just the stock browser...
So we all know the GS4 out of the box has some atrocious lag. Well I went through the steps to clear a lot of it out without rooting. Just stock, and changing some settings within the OS itself. But I was still noticing some small lag here and there. Well it turns out I put my GS4 on the charger and start using it, and I notice that there is significantly less lag, I unplug it, and then it goes back to usual lag. I have done this back and forth a couple of times, with the same results.
So could it be that Samsung ramps up the CPU when on the charger?

I never experienced lag on this phone until yesterday and I noticed google services was using uo my battery. Went to the google settings and there is a new option call android device manager and I unchecked all the location settings and lag gone. Also if you have google currents go into settings and disable background sync.

Checked that and it's completely off. I wouldn't put it past Samsung do that, we've already seen them ramp up the processor and gpu for the benchmark rests, my guess is that they lower the clock speed when not charging or maybe below a certain percentage.

No lag here. Sorry to hear that bro
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
It's not like it's everywhere, it's just in a few places, like hangouts, where my One never lagged, or sometimes a jitter when swiping through apps or home screens. Guess I'm just not used to it coming from the One. But there is a difference in performance when plugged into a charger and not.

Watch a movie on the one or play a game. Its night and day compared to the S4.
My cousin has the one. YouTube takes at least 2 more seconds, worse quality, and skips.
Games skip/lag, and loading time is longer for the One.
You gotta take the good with the bad with either phone.

That is true, the YouTube app is much more solid on the GS4. But one small thing is that I get this huge black bar at the top of my YouTube app when I switch from portrait to landscape. Anyone know how to fix that?

That's just the app itself. That's not even a problem. If something like that REALLY bother you, then you're EXTREMELY anal about things.
P.s. I think you're a ONE fanboy that came on here to put down the S4.
