Hi everyone,
I just did some flashing to my phone, and this is the second time that this happens to me, but I have no idea how or why. But suddenly after pressing God knows what, my home goes into preview mode, where all my widgets are floating around. I honestly have no clue how did this happen, does anyone around here knows how to enable this feature?
PS. I looked before asking and couldn't find a related topic, so if there is one already there, I sincerely apologize.
Hi mate, this happens when you pinch the screen and pull your fingers together. As if your zooming out on a webpage. If you click on a widget, it will go to that screen.

Thanks for the answer
For those of you that are Redditors, this application is fairly new, and works phenomenally on the new N7. It has gestures which is what sets it apart to me. For example, on the main screen that lists the threads, swipe left to get to your subscribed subreddits and multireddits, account info, etc. Swipe right to filter and sort, etc. When you choose an option, you can swipe back left to the main thread, and swipe right to go to the comments.
I rarely ever recommend Reddit clients as there are so many, but this feels SO right on the N7.

Amazing. Thanks for the recommendation.
Yeah this one is the best by far. Wish it would hide those gory pics though .

On the right side of the post item where you can click the top half to get to the comments, you should see a video link on the bottom half of the right side of that item. Clicking that will open the video inside flow, and you can rotate to get the full screen view.
Ah I had it right but its not working

Is there a way to login that I'm not seeing?

Yep!
Swipe your finger from the left side of the screen in towards the middle, which should reveal the left drawer. There should be an option to login there. You can also access the settings menu, your subreddits, multireddits,and casual subreddits, and change the theme from there as well.
The same motion from the right side opens the options to filter and sort posts.
Great recommendation! Thanks

So far I'm liking the app, but how can I view my inbox/notifications?

Great app man!
Edit
I noticed threads with youtube links don't work. Still an awesome app by far

This is nice, I'll see if I end up using this more than bacon reader. It's going to be hard to beat.
Edir: looks like I'll be keeping bacon reader.
Do you see a graphics glitch?

Yes, just as the lock screen comes up, but then it seems fine. Strange.
BS...
u mean with the screen facing the ground? or the volume buttons near the ground, im confused, maybe a pic/vid would help
The launcher FC'd but after acknowledging the event everything is fine.
A video showing the issue being reproduced may be useful so we can identify it.
The second time I tried this I noticed when the glowing x was about to be replaced with the lock screen the x dropped to the bottom center of the display, as if the height on the display was two times the actual size.

Hold the tablet in a way that the micro USB port is on the left side.

I got the glitch, but it didn't really seem to affect anything on mine. It straightened itself out almost immediately and the normal lock screen came up.
I noticed this glitch today, but like the others said it doesn't really matter much since it corrects itself right away.
I wouldn't call it a "glitch", more like an annoyance, that happens to the Nexus 7(2012) as well. The bootanimation/logo is supposed to be portrait, but as the tablet start up it tries to move to landscape mode, but since it's a portrait image it moves that way, making it look like something's wrong but it's not. You can change the lockscreen to not rotate and stay in portrait or don't hold it landscape while it boots up, in that way you won't see it again.
Edit: Also happens to the brightness level, it's just the tablet starting up.
Hello folks,
There's a way to bring up voice search when the screen is off. Anyone know what is it?
I've done it a few times accidentally. If the screen is off but unlocked, it brings up the homescreen too.
Drawing a circle in the middle of the screen with your finger?

While the phone is lying on a table or on bed, if you try pulling down the status bar, using just one finger without touching the sides of the phone, it just won't pull down, it would like block the touch for that even though it'd register touches for usual taps and swipes.
Even stranger behavior is while it won't be pulling down while it's lying on the table and the sides of the phone are not being touched, if you even slightly touch the side of the phone and then swipe down status bar, it'd work perfectly. That's one of the strangest things I've seen in a phone.
There's no issues while holding and using the phone btw.
Please answer back if you're facing the same issue or try replicating what I said with your device and report the behavior below, would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
Can you make a video? If I understand your post right, it works fine on my device.
Not able to make a video atm as no other device is with me. Would love for other people to reply as well as I'm pretty sure it can't be my particular device's defect.
I've found people reporting very similar things for surface pro on this thread here if you wanna understand what I'm saying better

Here's a video from someone in the Nokia forums acknowledging the issue I reported and made a video.

Thanks for the video, so, I did understand it right
I tried it again few times, and it works fine for me.

It happens with mine too. But not always lol....
Try turn off gestures?
Setting > System > Gestures > Swipe fingerprint for notifications.
I have not seen this, but you can set the fingerprint reader as a tiny touchpad which can be used to bring down the status bar.
