Mouse hover popups

I find the mouse hover preview popups quite annoying. They cover up way too much data in adjacent lines. There should be a client option to turn it off. Could someone look into this, please?

When you are in a forum such as rom development and you hover over a thread title, a preview of the thread pops up.
I think that is what he means.

Yep, Denco7, that's what I was talking about. I spent a few hours with Google looking for a way to disable it but it turns out to be a server side thing in the HTML.

Wow, that is large! Glad I've never run into that large popup...

Funny never really noticed them as have to hover over rather than scroll over to see, think the best way to get around it is just to scroll in the blank between subject & rating if they are frequent.

Yeah, I know where the safe zones are but I like to use the cursor as a place holder while I read. There is a way in the site HTML that allows the client the option to turn those obnoxious pop-ups off and I would like the webmaster to look into it. But really, who in the heck needs them in the first place?

They look like nothing more than the ALT text on the HTML links displaying the first few characters of a post. The problem looks to be the use a line breaks that cause them to run over a few lines. If you use these in somewhere like the Q&A forum it's quote handy to get an idea of a post before you click on it.
I use it all the time to try and decide if I can help before I go clicking to go in and then going back out.

[Q] caller id screen

One quick question is it possible to change the caller I'd screen into full screen instead of the little pic but not by using an app that only works sometimes. Is there a way to change the dimensions in an apk somewhere

this is something that I'm hoping somebody is working on right now. There used to be one for the g1, but the work for it has been discontinued.

+ 1 here. Or at least make the picture look better, like high res or something.

If this is what you wanted then pm me

There's an app on the market for full screen caller id. You can set the level of integration in the app setting for incoming and outgoing calls, video caller id, or sms. I've had virtually no problems with it, just tweak the settings and its great. Just search the market for "full screen caller id"

Any luck on where that other thread is? Never heard of it and search is down at the moment.

[Q] Sprint S2 To Boost problem

I've been searching the forums for any help i can find regarding flashing a Sprint S2 to Boost mobile and can't find an answer. I decided to post a new thread since other threads haven't had responses in a year or more.
With that said I have done this before in 2012 with my HTC Evo 4g to Boost. Love it a lot but now its time to upgrade my phone so i bought a Sprint S2 SPH-D710 to flash to boost mobile and do this again. It took me a few hours to remember how to do everything but it was far easier the second time around. One I had all the information copied to the S2 it would not connect to the boost network. I've tried numerous things except calling up boost and saying my phone won't connect for some reason (LOL).
I feel as though I'm missing something, probably something stupid! I am on vacation so I'm pulling this from memory until i get home.
I copied the 4 Nv Items 465, 466, 1192 and 1194 from my donor (initially my Evo, didn't work so went to donor, still didn't work).
Retrieved both SPC codes for the phones
Retrieved Ha/AAA keys from donor
Copied all information in CDMA workshop such as numbers directories ect.
My MEID changed to donor MEID simply by copying the NV items and NOTHING else, Is that to good to be true?
If i open CDMA workshop and read the S2 it reads the ESN as incorrect on the top right, but correctly in the program itself. Weird?
Did a factory reset multiple times and even had it rooted (then soft bricked)
Tried a different modem (then soft bricked)
Are there any tricks I may be forgetting? I think I may just call up Boost and play the "my phone no worky" card even though I manually changed the PRL through DFS. It will only say searching for service. At least if it connected and didn't have 3G or Wifi thats something I can troubleshoot, I just don't get squat.
Any second thoughts would be very helpful for getting this up and running
Thanks,

This is one of the guides I used to refresh my memory. But for some reason after doing all this it wouldn't connect. Drove me mad and I had to give up for a few weeks.I had tried switching modems but it bricked it so i didn't try another one. When I get home I'll try again, if that doesn't fix it I may just send it out to have it Flashed by someone who does this daily. Any recommendation?

Help! Can't change VPN settings on my SM-T705

Hi guys,
I've googled this issue quite a bit, and am getting a lot of hits from a few years ago (different devices like gs3, nexus 5 etc) about a problem that seems very similar to the one I am having... Basically every time I try to change my VPN settings I get a popup asking me for my "credential storage password". See screenshot below. I've tried random passwords that I may have set up and everything suggested on other forums... Nothing I do has fixed it so far.
Most other forums mention setting up a device lock screen password or pattern or PIN and this seemed to have helped some people.
Others say to "clear credential storage" using the settings>device>security>clear credential storage button and setting a new password. This also worked for others..
Some random websites suggested creating a shortcut icon that directly takes you to the VPN settings page, but this has not helped either... It keeps asking for some f*ing password that I have no idea where it would have come from!!
Has anyone had similar problems?? I have no idea what's going on, really, so if anyone has any ideas, please help!!!!

What method of lockscreen do you use? Do you have it on pattern, Fingerprint? etc..

I have it on PIN - a 4 digit code. I've tried entering that as the credential storage passw order too, but no luck...
Are you able to access your VPN settings menu??

Thanks for writing back. Can you post screenshots of what it looks like?? Do you have a T705 or T700??
As I said in the OP I found that some people echo your comments... I tried setting a PIN and a normal alphanumeric password, but nothing seems to work!!

Chrome New Tab Page - Remove Elements

Does anyone know what the area below the search bar is called (the area where the link is displaying)? I'm trying to figure out which flag in the chrome://flags option to disable. I've already turned off recent bookmarks visited and recent downloads. I want all the clutter off the page. Google is crowding this page with tons of junk now. They need options in the regular settings to turn these off instead of going through the flags settings.

Well, if you mean "they need to put it in the regular settings instead of flags" then no, its not... because Google will never do that, but I used this guide and my "new" pages are 100% COMPLETELY blank- just the way I like it. Not sure what else you were looking for?

You even got the spot where the MMA Junkie link in the pic I posted gone? I tried all the stuff in that article and that's the only thing now working for me. I have to delete those manually.
