Hello there!
This is a problem that I've had for a while. Ever since I got this tablet, to be precise (3 days after it released; I have the Wi-Fi only version). I tried to give it a fair chance, but I think I've given it enough time to be able to say that I don't like it. The problem is that my dock bar never rotates to the bottom of the screen like it should when I flip the tablet to landscape mode, which is what I have it set in 99% of the time (the last 1% being because an app or something forces me into portrait mode). I can't seem to find anything to make it go to the bottom and I've searched this forum and Google for a solution but I didn't find anything. The few threads that I did find dealing with this problem suggested a different launcher, but when I tried it, the dock bar was still on the side of the screen. How can I make it go back to the bottom? When I had the 1st gen Nexus 7, I never had this problem.
ROM: ParanoidAndroid 3.99 RC2
Kernel: Franco Kernel
Launcher: Apex
Thanks in advance!
Is this a unique problem?
Anyone have a solution?
Is this a 4.3 problem?
It means that the rom/launcher does not have 'Tablet Mode' enabled for the homescreens. I am not sure how to get what you are asking for, but it is acting like everyone elses and you don't have a defect of any kind.
Hi Guys,
Maybe someone can confirm an issue I am having. I have had my Nexus 7 2013 since last August (one of the first units probably) and have been using the Google Now launcher which has the semi transparent menu bar along the bottom. I noticed with the stock wallpaper that there appears to be very fine interference or flickering (very subtle) along the bottom and easier to see in the lower left or right corner. It is easier to see when the brighness is very high and the room you are in is dark. It isn't noticeable with the old launcher which had an all black menu bar. I have sent it back to Asus once for repair and they did replace the display, but I got it back with the same issue. I called Asus again and told them that the issue is still there and to look at the mainboard (GPU)? Has anyone seen this same issue or confirm they don't have it? I just want to make sure Asus doesn't try to replace the screen again since it is unlikely to be two displays with the same issue. Other than that using it for full screen on anything else seems to be fine like full screen Youtube and I haven't modified the software in any way. It is completely stock.
Thanks,
Jason
I am guessing no one has noticed this. Maybe a bad main board and/or GPU?. I guess it goes back to Asus again.

Hi all,
I've had 3 or 4 OTA updates on my LGG3 since I got it last year, one of the ones around 20h made the swipe to camera icon disappear. The one in the bottom right...
How do I get it back?
Also, how do I change volume down to launch a third party camera (XCam LG)
This is possibly due to the change in Android Lollipop's lock screen settings. If you see stock ROMs or vanilla Nexus, there isn't any lock screen widgets anymore either.
However, I've inspected the ROM packaging (at least for Cloudy's ROM), this code is still there, it just doesn't show up for some reason.
I'll let some other pro answer this...
Solution? Wait for v30-base from G4's LG UX 4.0 software, if not you can download third-party lock screen apps (i.e. WidgetLocker or HiLocker)
Did you ever find a solution for this? I'm having the same issue.

I installed zui locker, played around with it's camera settings then uninstalled it. Funny the camera widget appeared and remained in the stock lockscreen.
Hey guys,
while I'm extremely happy with the phone (awesome screen, perfect fingerprint location IMO, general form factor), I've come across three little problems:
1.) The biggest "flaw": Using another launcher / wallpaper than the stock one causes the face-unlock to be slower. And if you set another launcher / wallpaper, there will be a noticeable delay when you turn on the screen: The wallpaper will take longer to appear on the screen than everything else.
2.) The time between hitting the power button on the right / using the double-tap-to-wake feature and the screen actually turning on is almost a second. Coming from the 3T btw, where it almost felt instant.
3.) I'm not sure whether it's a flaw but it's just something that looks strange: The greyish navbar when using a dark-themed app. (I wouldn't really call this a problem, it's just a consistency flaw you notice, while operating the phone.
So first of all: Do you have the same impressions? It might very well just be my phone and you don't encounter these problems. But in another thread I already read about the face-unlock time taking longer, when using another launcher / wallpaper.
Thanks in advance for any replies and experiences!

There's an app in the play store called Navbar Apps which can fix the navbar colour issue. Doesn't even need root!

Thanks Lum_UK, but I already tried that one. I find it to be a bit slow in overlaying the "correct" color, i.e. the overlay isn't always there from the beginning when opening an app.
And I'm not interested in rooting anymore.
You can force it to just black in that app, which may be preferable to the grey, and avoids the delay issue.
Otherwise, probably not much you can do unless a future OOS adds new options.
Use gallery to set ur wallpapers, do lockscreen 1st then homescreen, don't do both. Using Action Launcher

What launcher r u using
So far I tried Nova, Lawnchair and the stock launcher. I'm encountering this problem with Nova and Lawnchair, not with the stock one. But if I set a custom wallpaper in the stock launcher, the wallpaper-appearing-delay is also there.

#2 is because of face unlock. Disable it and it will be instant.
Personally i use ambient display + lift up display so when i pick the phone i can see the clock and if needed, the double tap to wake in that screen is instant too

You can turn off the animation in Navbar Apps as well. That way the correct color will load much faster.
I don't use Face Unlock, but everything turns on instantly for me.
However, the nav bar color oscuro the worst and I can't wait to get back to a good AOSP firmware. OxygenOS is great and all but missing very important features I just can't live (comfortably) without.

You're right! This means bye-bye then to face unlock, unless this is fixed. I'm using smart lock anyway. :good:
Thank you for all your replies so far! They really were helpful!
Now could you still say something about "problem" #1? Do you observe the same or is it different? So if you use another launcher / wallpaper, will the wallpaper take longer to load then everything else?
1. agreed, same exact issue here.
2. i dont have that issue. both FP and FU are pretty much instant. sounds strange. maybe factory reset is really the way to go.
3. yea i agree, not optimal.
Hey guys,
I just wanted to give a heads up to you: I just discovered how to avoid the 'wallpaper-lag' while turning the screen on when using a non-stock wallpaper or non-stock launcher:
1. Force stop the OnePlus launcher.
2. Uninstall any updates to it.
3. Use the launcher you like. (Tested with lawnchairs and Nova)
At least for me, the wallpaper lag is gone!

For 1) and 2) : Did you force stop the oneplus launcher? No lag here..
edit, I see @Sangraphim already posted this right above this post

For me this doesn't solve the problem. If the wallpaper is set through another launcher (Nova in my case) and if I use Nova, when using face unlock, i first see the lock screen for some split seconds and then it unlocks. If the lockscreen wallpaper is set through the OnePlus launcher itself, it skips the split seconds on the lockscreen completely and goes directly onto the homescreen which feels much more instantaneous. Also if I'm using a live wallpaper, like the nice new Pixel wallpapers which I wanted to use, the problem occurs even when setting the wallpaper through the OnePlus launcher and when using OnePlus launcher itself.
I've uninstalled the OnePlus launcher updates and tried to force stop it (although this wasn't possible as it seemingly wasn't even started to begin with), but nothing changed.
And yes, the wallpaper will often times take longer to appear on the screen than everything else, exactly like Dimitry from Hardware Canucks demoed in his review:
https://youtu.be/Kf93Nz_bgFs?t=7m48s
This looks very glitchy in my opinion but is of course rather nitpicky.
And as Sangraphim said, the time between hitting the power button on the right / using the double-tap-to-wake feature and the screen actually turning on is definetly prolonged when using face unlock - but that's probably by design I guess, because it starts the front camera first and waits a bit to detect a face before actually turning on the screen.
Over the last few days, the wallpaper on my Note 10+ has been turning sideways and sticking like that. The actual home screen does not turn landscape - just the wallpaper. the only way I can fix it is by restarting the phone.
Anyone experiencing this or have a fix?
I use Nova Launcher.
Thanks.

It happened to me yesterday, changing the wallpaper fixed it. I'm wondering if it's a bug in the new firmware released this week. It's not happened since i changed the wallpaper

Thanks. Just switched wallpaper - we'll see how it goes.

Just happened to me again as well, first time since i posted. It happened after i opened and closed plex, might just be a coincidence

I don't use Plex, so that's not it.
Only 826 other apps to rule out [emoji23]

I think it's a bug. I reported it to Samsung Member. I started a reddit thread in hopes to find answers because like you, I have tried changing the wallpaper back, but it just keeps changing back. It only seems to happen after exitting landscape video apps/ or apps.
Because I signed up to reply to this, I can't post URLs.
I hope this helped ease you.

I was just having the same problem since I updated yesterday. I think I just fixed it. I went up to the search bar on the homescreen by dragging the top of the screen down and searched wallpaper. Opened that up and it showed my current selected wallpaper on lockscreen and regular homescreen. Below that I had dark mode selected (I guess that is new with the update) I unselected it. It fixed it. I wanted to be sure so I went to an app the went into landscape mode and then closed it and it stayed fixed.
