First of all thanks in advance. I was wondering why does my Web browser refresh two times by itself. Every time I go to a Web page I got to wait a couple of seconds so it can refresh a second time.
Second question. How do I get rid of the navigation bar when am using the Internet or just not using it?

Yes when using @xda via your browser for some reason it refreshes twice when you zoom in and start scrolling. For the nav bar go to settings>display>hometouch buttons and you can select which apps you want to hide them on.

Whenever I open up something in my hermes that has to use a scroll bar on the right, it always opens up with the bar all the way at the bottom.
example:
When I open up a long email, the scroll bar on the right automatically goes to the bottom and I would have to manually scroll up to view the email from the begining.
I have flashed between two different roms and it still does this.
Any ideas???

Is this even doable? I'd love some other way of refreshing pages without having to scroll all the way to the top every time. Or is there a way that I'm not aware of with the stock browser?

hit menu then the refresh icon is to the right of the address bar text...
Wow, LOL. I've had this phone since launch and never noticed the address bar drop down when you hit menu. Thanks for the good laugh guys.
I'm wondering if anyone has noticed that after CM10 M2 ROM is installed that it randomly adds app icons on the home page? Intermittently when booting app shortcuts show up on the home page. This happens even when I don't install an app. Things I installed weeks ago are randomly on my home page. never more than 1 at a time, but about 10 times a week!
Can anyone help? Help...
what apps?
Go to the play store menu and see if auto add widgets is checked if it is UN checked it and see if that solves your issue

Thanks - good to know were all in it... For the record I love CM10 M2. It's by far the best ROM I've tried hands down! But, the problem has come back.... :/
The earlier fix: I went in Play store a week ago and unchecked install icon on home page.
Original problem has not gone away. It still adds icons to desktop. I've been playing with it to try to get an idea for what causes it. If I have all spots taken on the home page for app shortcuts, it will remove the app I already have there and add another random one. Always in the upper left.
So, I figured out that it only happens on reboots. But it doesn't happen if I leave the previous randomly placed icon alone!! If I remove the previous random icon and put one of "my" choosing, then reboot - it will trash mine and put another one there. It's always a random one. It might be ones that I had grouped from another page (i.e. several icons in one spot using the group feature).
BUT - I also learned that if I leave the randomly placed app icon where it put it - then reboot - A new one doesn't come!!! The previous random one stays put for several reboots!!
Oh - one last thing. I'm using the customization of the Launcher Grid - the number of icon rows and columns. I have it currently set to 6 rows & 5 columns.
Do you think that is why?? (maybe too many icons on the page so they are too close and then get pushed off the edge???)
What do you think...

PS - Adding a snapshot of the home page. Clock app disappears unless it was the random one from a reboot...
Hello everyone, I'm using Chrome as my main browser and there's something bugging me about its full screen behavior. Every once in a blue moon it goes totally full screen, hiding the Android bar at the top of the screen and I prefer this better. It makes use of the huge screen of the Note II. But then for most of the time it only hides is own address bar when scrolling down on a page and that's it. The Android status bar stays there and it's not total full screen. I've looked into the settings thoroughly but couldn't come up with a solution.
If you know what's going on please enlighten me. Thank you very much.

Chrome has gesture base feature for hiding action bar or address bar.
It is in built action and even no option for that in setting.
If you scroll down, action bar will be hide. If you scroll up, action bar will be visible.

If action bar is the bar with battery info and time and etc. It doesn't react to scrolling. Today I accidentally hid that bar and for a good couple of hours it didn't appear again no matter if I scrolled or tilted the phone. Now it came back. My Note II is as stock as it can be and I have no other issues with it. I'm confused now. Thank you for taking your time.
So you are talking about status bar. No chrome haven't provision for full screen without status bar.
But Samsung inbuilt stock browser having provision for full screen in settings. Check it out. May be you have observed in that browse.

I'm using Chrome. So what I'm experiencing must be some sort of a bug. Very very seldom this happens and I get a total full screen. I wish I could choose to have it that way all the time.
Thank you very much.
Adding pics. Maybe some of you also experience this?
I also have the Note ll and the same thing happens to me sometimes. I, unlike you, find this annoying and even though I don't know what causes it, restarting the app resets the bug. In case anyone wanted to know how to fix it.
If you have xposed installer ,using app settings app,you can use full screen to any app.

Any way to get rid of the Google search bar at the bottom of the home screen? It is annoying and I never use it.
Thanks!

It's funny, because before I had no use for it. I'd always stick with opening chrome and typing in the search area there. For the last year now I've been using the search bar widget on my homescreen and seriously can't go without it. I barely even open Chrome anymore. And even when I do use a customer launcher time to time usually Nova...first thing I do upon setup is stick that search bar right at the bottom lol.
