Ionic-framework: Android - scrollbar visible even when there is no scroll possible

[dbaq]

As you can see on the screenshot below, the scrollbar appears on Android all the time.

everything is fine on iOS/chrome

[mlynch]

I believe this was fixed. Please re-open if the issue still exists. Thanks!

[dbaq]

Sorry for the late response, I just tested with the latest CSS, I stil have the scrollbar.

Cannot reopen the issue.. Could you please?

[ajoslin]

@dbaq could you try with ionic v0.9.23? And what device are you testing on? (looks like a Nexus of some sort)

I was not able to reproduce on my Nexus 5. When I have access to an older Android device next week I'll test again.

[ajoslin]

Could not reproduce on any Android or iOS device

I have this problem on Android device after updating to newest Ionic 1.2. Scrollbar has also lower z-index (is underneath) several UI elements like input and ion-radio.

Today I meet the same problem on Android device. my ionic was 1.2.1

[jackcruz]

Today I have upgraded to 1.2.1 and I have the same issue.

[kumaro]

Having this issue after upgrading to 1.2.4 from 1.0.1

[sluipmoord]

Having the same issue after upgrading to 1.2.4 from 1.1.0

[jackcruz]

still having this issue after upgrading to 1.2.4.

This only happens on android 4.4.2. Could not see the same issue on 5.x.x onwards

[marcbc]

Same in 1.2.4

[rbarriuso]

Same here with ionic 1.2.4 on Android 4.4.2 and 5.1. Any idea why?

[terrytong]

Try installing Crosswalk might solve the problem. I had similar issues with the default Android webview, but switching to Crosswalk seems to fix it.

[ravishtiwari]

I am also facing this problem, using ionic 1.2.4, iOS is fine, but, always visible scrollbar on Android.

[cesar-oyarzun-m]

I have the same problem, I just update to pointing to master

[robertochajin]

I have the same issue with Ionic since Ionic 1.2.1 in android 4.4.2 and 5.1.1

[uqix]

Installing crosswork solved my problem，if that's not your option, maybe you should disable native scrolling temporarily

[rynomster]

I've also got the same issue. Android 5.1.1 and Ionic 1.2.4. Installing crosswalk didn't help, and with crosswalk allot of my debugging wasn't showing either :/

[dcinadr]

I am having the same problem when I view the app with Ionic Lab.

[spanning]

Any news on this one? I have the same issue with the latest ionic and xwalk

[spanning]

Only happens with native scrolling (overflow-scrolling="true")

[rberthome]

Still the same for me, the user has to tap on the content to hide the scrollbar. Any news about this ?

[smajl]

Maybe the problem is that this issue is closed.
@brandyscarney Could you please review and reopen this? A lot of people have this issue.

Hello @smajl what version of android are you having this issue on? Also do you have a good minimal example we can use to repro this issue? Thanks!

[kingstakh]

Ionic 1.3.1 / Android 4.4.2 have this issue to

[smajl]

@jgw96 Sorry, didn't have time to catch up with our mobile app till today.

Ionic 1.3.1 (just upgraded) / Android 4.4.2

Sorry, don't have minimal example, but this bug is present immediately on our login page which is simple ion-view with ion-content and footer bar. No overflowing content but scrollbar permanently visible. After I focus an input (and keyboard appears), the scrollbar disappears and is not visible even when scrolling (the now overflowing content). Appears again after bluring input and hiding keyboard.

[loursbourg]

A quick solution (add this to your custom css file:
.overflow-scroll{overflow-y:auto;}
Ionic 1.3.1 and the the scroll bar is still there even though the area is not scroll-able.
The problem is in the "ionic.css" file. please set the overflow-y property to "auto".

[VinceOPS]

Hi everyone. Experiencing this too with ionic 1.3.1 and Android 5+ & 6+.
Please see also https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/overflow-scroll-ion-content/1382/12, regarding setting overflow-y to auto.

[akhtar-gits]

.overflow-scroll{overflow-y:auto;} worked for me. thanks
