anchorScroll() forces Android address bar to show

[viceversus]

The code below found in $anchorScrollProvider forces the Android address bar to show. The scroll method is called every time angular changes views, which causes this issue. While iOS and other browsers allow 0 in the scrollTo method, Android allows only positive integers for the desired behavior (http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/mobile-web-apps/remove-address-bar/).

function scroll() {
  var hash = $location.hash(), elm;

  // empty hash, scroll to the top of the page
  if (!hash) $window.scrollTo(0, 0);

  // element with given id
  else if ((elm = document.getElementById(hash))) elm.scrollIntoView();

  // first anchor with given name :-D
  else if ((elm = getFirstAnchor(document.getElementsByName(hash)))) elm.scrollIntoView();

  // no element and hash == 'top', scroll to the top of the page
  else if (hash === 'top') $window.scrollTo(0, 0);
}

Our fix is to wrap window's scrollTo method and check if the device is an Android. If it is an android and the x, y arguments are 0, 0, we manually set the value to 0, 1.

window.aliasedScrollTo = window.scrollTo

window.scrollTo = (x, y, delay) ->
  if Device.android() && x == 0 && y == 0
    window.aliasedScrollTo(x, 1, delay)
  else
    window.aliasedScrollTo(x, y, delay)

Is there a better solution for this problem?
