Home Screen Bounce Back Issue ? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I'm sorry for opening another thread of this issue but search is out of service now on XDA. My Nexus 7 have bounce back issue. It's rooted and has custom recovery.
What is the easiest way to resolve this issue ? I love stock 4.1.2 Google rom very much but bounce back issue is killing me. I can flash new kernels and edit files if i have to.
Thanks

I'm on stock rom, rooted, 4.2.1 and I don't have a 'bounce back' issue. What does that mean? Have you tried 4.2.1? It is working perfectly for me.

I think Nova or Apex launchers both have fixes for that problem.
I'm on Nova and the latest version doesn't do that anymore.

I'm on nova running cm10.1 and it seems to have cleared it up for me. I did have it though. Sooooo annoying. With custom ROMs android would be dead IMO

Im on stock rooted 4.2.2 and the notification pull down is fixed now but still have home screen bounce back (even on nova launcher) anyone got any ideas? Its very annoying, this would likely be something to do with kernel not rom?

Everything on home screens disappear only wallpaper on screen

Hello im have a problem where all my apps,shortcuts and UI randomly disappear or my screen and the only thing left is my wallpaper. The only way i resolve it is to go to settings/apps/launcher and force close it. It restarts but its just a temp fix cause randomly it happens again. I have tried Multiple Flexreaper,Thor, and Cm9 roms Multiple bootloaders and Kernals but it always comes back. I ALWAYS do a full wipe (by wiping everything even data) but after a while it comes back. Anyone know how to fix it or Any info would be great thanks
I can't help with a fix, but I can confirm that you are not the only one with this issue. I have three Acer tabs, One that's stock ICS A500 no root, one A500 with V3 bootloader and Flexreaper, and one stock rooted ICS with the V8 bootloader. All three do this same thing. The only way that I can get rid of the issue is to downgrade to the Honeycomb bootloader. If it was any more annoying I would go back to the Honeycomb bootloader and pretend to be a chicken while enjoying my nice solid user experience. I'm not sure how Acer bugged it up on this one. But as far as I can tell, it is an Acer ICS bootloader problem that carries over even if the bootloader is patched.
I've been trying to find a solution. So far, other than changing back to HCBL, nothing has worked. It's too bad that one of the Dev's can't see a tablet with this issue. Those guys can fix about anything...
Thak you for the info. Its good to know Im not the only one who has this problem. Do you think CM10 will fix it since its Jellybean?
I never experienced that issue...until I moved to Jelly Bean. It happened all the time on the first alpha port, but the latest cm10 is OK. I hasn't happen since. What launcher are you using?
I've tried a ton of launchers and it happens on them all. Also, it happens less frequently if I don't have a email widget on a home screen.
I'v also tried alot of launchers and they all do the same. Thanks for the email widget tip
Has there been any new developments on this issue and how to fix it?
I'm on hc bootloader and never have that problem. I am fully capable of flashing ICS bootloader, but have no interest in doing so. I see no clear advantage and hear nothing but problems. I'm running the newest TO Jelly Bean and it is practically flawless. Call me a chicken if you like, but I'm a happy chicken with a sweet tablet

It happens to me all the time with all the launchers I 've tried. I am in unlocked ics bootloader and stock rom. The same happened with the locked bootloader. I tried the CM10 Rom same results. I removed all widgets from the homescreen with no luck.
If it's in the ICS Bootloader then all must have the same problem or not?
Any solution except going back to 3.2?
To fix it I had to go full stock to Honey Comb then reinstall CWM then install Thor cm v15 and no problems since. I think the problem is the ICS bootloader

[Q] Should I update?

Hello,
Got my N7 yesterday, I unlocked it and its rooted.
now its running 4.1.1 I want to update to 4.1.2 im still on the stock rom(rooted+touch recovery).
I heard that there is some issue if you update through the stoke recovery, so I have a custom recovery. I flashed a rom named smooth 4.0 through both the touch recovery(TWP) and CMW and non of them work I just see the boot up thats all.
so should I update or flash a different rom ?
im sorry if this question has been asked before.
thanks
anyone?
Why Not?
It's up to you if you want to update. 4.1.2 has a few new things, including screen rotation (finally), and a camera app If you can't choose, why don't you do both?

try both to see for yourself. i always get the latest and the greatest because of bug fixes stability improvements and things like that.
Maybe this is a placebo effect, but since I've updated I have yet to have some of the intermittent touchscreen issues that I was experiencing on 4.1.1... On that premise alone, and the fact I've had zero new issues crop up on 4.1.2, I'd say go for it.

I really would like to update and get rid of the annoying pop up message but isnt if im rooted and I have custom recovery will it update?, and if it did will I see app crashing?

[Q] Hide apps in drawer is removed after updating to 4.4.2 (KitKat)

I really love the TouchWiz launcher. But i miss to hide my apps in drawer. Is there a way to get 4.3 launcher to 4.4.2, or a mod that can fix it for me?
I've tried the 4.3 launcher with 4.4.2 but it gives FC
yep. that was what I first noticed with the update. try putting them into folders.
cheers ~
This really isn't good enough! WTF is Samsung thinking? There should be no reason for removing this functionality? It seems to also be something built within the firmware; it is not launcher related in otherwords, I found this out because when I was running Android 4.3 I had flashed an update to run the S5 launcher and icons theme. When I did this I was still able to hit the menu button and select apps that I wanted to hide. Since upgrading to Kitkat I noticed as you did that I was no longer able to do this, that was ok I just thought to myself "No problem I will just flash the launcher upgrade and theme for S5 on my S3 as I did before and that should allow me to unlock this functionality" NOT CAN DO! Both the stock Kitkat launcher and the S5 theme upgrade do not unlock this functionality unfortunately Someone is going to have to find out where the issue lies and try to port it back? If I find the answer I will make sure I post back here with a fix.

Download the s5 launcher from one of our threads. Flash it. And you have the hidr feature again.
Or just install a 3rd part touchwiz launcher themed app..you have that function
Mi launcher..nova..apex..go...any if these launchers do provide this function
Press Thanks if I helped

navbar glitch when changing launcher

hi, whenever i change huawei home with any different launcher ( i tried many) my navbar keeps turning black then it return transparent every i time i unlock my phone, is that normal? is there any workaround?
I have same glitch so probably its common.Soetimes even on stock launcher (1 of 10) i have same glitch especially with bright wallpaper.
Im using Nova Launcher Prime and I don't experience this problem. Maybe its a bug. You could try flashing the standard firmware, maybe an updated one if possible. Im not an expert about this kind of stuff but flashing stock firmware shouldn't harm your device.
