WTF?
I've noticed that when using immersive mode, tapping on an image or link temporarily stops immersive mode.

As far as I can tell there isn't a way to prevent this from happening. I could be missing something obvious though.

I think the jarring part is the way it shifts the whole page down slightly. Obviously the Action Bar has to move down but maybe the page could stay where it was.

Actually that might be pretty difficult to do.

Immersive mode is pretty sweet except it seems to exacerbate my problem where I hit the next page arrow with the base of my thumb when attempting to scroll. I think I'm the only one having this issue though. :(

One issue I've found with immersive mode is that I don't get my bar back if I hit the home screen button while in immersive mode. It goes back to the home screen but no notification bar.

This didn't happen to me, but I did think about hiding that bar while in immersive mode. I could play with that to see if that works well.

Oh dear, that's not very desirable. I don't have a device with a hardware button to test this on though :(

I thought I added a bit where if the app loses focus it shows the status bar, but maybe not.

Theoretically, the app shouldn't be able to hide the notification bar outside itself so that feels like a Google (or rom) bug to me honestly.

What device is that on anyway, GPE S4 / One?

I don't even get how this works, the buttons should not trigger during a swipe.

Well now I can't get it to reproduce. I turned off immersive mode yesterday because of it, but now when trying again it works fine. I'll update if I can reproduce again.

Not even diagnosed really. I have no idea what this is, what's causing this, how to reproduce it or even since when this is happening.

To be bluntly honest, bugs that don't happen to me personally are the ones that last the longest. Part of this is that it's harder for me to track them down, part is that I'm not daily reminded that the bug still exists.

If I could figure out how I'm doing it I'd try to stop it. As it is now I'll be reading something then suddenly the page is reloading or I'm on to the next page. I'm pretty sure I'm just holding it wrong.

I swear after the latest update this is worse for me. At home on WPA2 or at work on their open attwifi network. Initial launch of Awful after a reboot causes no issues, but if I go back to the home screen then re-open Awful I get this just about every time in any thread (and sometimes at the same time the back/reload buttons are replaced with tiny screencaps of posts). It only happens upon re-opening, and the only way to make it go away is to force close the app and/or reboot. Epic 4G [Cyanogenmod] 4.3, AND Note 10.1 4.3.

Confirming that I have this problem on my (Sprint) Nexus 5 and that swiping out to the left and back fixes it once. Then when the new page loads it is broken at the bottom of that one again.

Still having this issues on my Nexus 5 with 4.4.2

Seems to be if I visit the last page of a thread, hit the power screen off button, power screen back on, home, do some stuff, then choose the awful app from the home screen, the pull up to refresh/reload does not work. White "pull to reload" glow appears but does nothing until you swipe left and back, at which point it works.

I'm on a Nexus 5 with 4.4.2 and Awful 3.05. I can't get anything to make pull to reload or pull for next page work. I've tried disabling and reenabling the setting, closing the app out and loading it up again, nothing works.

By "swiping left" you actually mean "swipe right to get back to the forum list" right? That doesn't make it work for me.

Any other thoughts for debugging?

Just to append, the pull at top to refresh the thread list seems to work fine, it is the in thread pull at bottom to refresh/next page that is isn't working.

I fixed it in a different, cleaner way and it's going out.

As for P2N, as far as I can tell it works most of the time, unless you go directly back into the threadview from outside the app, correct?

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, isn't that based on the compatibility test that Google uses? (I was under the impression that this was so device manufacturers could create hardware-specific apps)

Those are all the devices that (theoretically) support Awful. And even that basically just means "something happens when the user clicks on the app icon". Afaik there are no tests, just devices not supported because we have the Froyo+ requirement and they never got that.

I've pushed out another beta that should fix P2N being on the wrong end when resuming the thread view from outside.

And every time this is mentioned, somebody points out that the iOS app lets you post threads and nobody is making lovely threads with it. The Awful Android app doesn't have thread posting because nobody has had time or desire to code it.

In relation to signatures, would it be possible to add in a horizontal spacer separating the signature from the post? When you have .gifs turned off, it gets really annoying in image heavy threads trying to figure out where the signature starts.
