homescreen on right???

just installed soulife.rogers.v2.9.2.extended and I get the homescreen on the RIGHT instead of in the middle as usual... anyway to fix it back? Tried dxtop just now and it gave me the same sort of behaviour!

You talking about the clock and stuff? Just place everything where you want it.

i mean when you hit 'home' it goes to the screen on the RIGHT ... you have to scroll left twice to get to the third screen...

mine does that too now and I'm on cm 3.9.11.2. It goes to whatever screen my seach widget is on.

That happened to me once but then I realized I had five homescreens...
I've heard of people having issues after flashing from one rom to a different if they did not clear the widgets off their home before flashing.

It's not unusual (sorry but your name, c'mon how could i not?)
When i used to use OpenHome there was always an option in the settigns to configure which screen acted as the home screen.

[Solved] set number of screens in ahome

sorry if this is a dumb question - trying out ahome and it only has 2 screens by default, where do I set the number of screens?

I think it's on aHome settings. On the homescreen press Menu > More to get to settings. Havn't used aHome since 1.1 so it might be a little different now.

hmm... i get menu / ahome menus then loads of choices. can't spot it! :/

Haven't used aHome in a long time, but I have a feeling that if you move an icon to the edge of the screen it will extend it and add a new screen. Maybe I'm thinking if something else...?

yessir that is correct

In the aHome menu, in settings, it allows you to choose number of screens, allows you to number (or mark) each screen, and so on. I can't tell you exactly because aHome doesn't work on my current ROM. Check display settings in the extra menu on the home screen. It's in the same menu where you change your fonts and drawers and stuff.

Thanks a lot guys - Adrian yep that's it, currently you drag an icon to the edge to make a new screen!

[Q] Need some DEV assistance for soft lock button

Hey guys! I need some help putting soft lock button on the upper right part of the screen next to the clock like in SVA roms I don't want to mess my power button on the phone so i tought that it might be useful to use the screen lock button from SVA So I decompiled framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk but I couldn't find where exactly are the codes for this. I'm a bit of a newbie but i learn fast so... I'm using this only for educational purposes and i'm not going to steal SVA's work! Thanks in advance and Happy new year! Cheers!

Decompile SystemUI.apk
Code:
<ImageView android:gravity="center" android:id="@id/battery" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
Look for the above line in SystemUI.apk\res\layout/tw_status_bar.xml and add the below code with your choice of ic_sysbar_lock.png in SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xhdpi
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.KeyButtonView android:id="@id/back" android:paddingLeft="0.5dip" android:paddingRight="0.5dip" android:layout_width="25.0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="@drawable/ic_sysbar_lock" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/recent_apps" android:contentDescription="@string/accessibility_back" systemui:keyCode="26" systemui:glowBackground="@drawable/ic_sysbar_highlight" />
recomplie systemUI.apk

Jeez nokiamodeln91... I'm watching you since I joined xda and how the hell you have answer to every question?? Thanks a lot I'm going to try this and let's see what happens... My idea is to put this screen lock button to Angry rom... Is it going to be a problem with this rom because of the density changing? Hope not.. I'll try this and will write what happens

hmmm dont know about changed density. but worth a try.. be sure to keep a backup of the systemUI.apk.. incase something goes wrong. a reference can be used by downloading the darboc/Olifexs mods that have a lock button, unzip the systemui and decompile and check the above file i mentioned.. this way you will have something tor refer when changing your original fine.

Thanks a lot nokia!!!!! It works on all densities! here is a screenshot

Yea... You made it.

I'm 6' 8" and I use Google keyboard without problems. Maybe try another keyboard. Swiftkey seems to be popular amongst many. My biggest problem is my gigantor thumbs either pressing multiple keys or the wrong key (love auto correct for this) but I don't miss the space bar. Are you using the material theme or holo?

Indeed, however I still use two hands at times. I don't have any issues with being able to reach the back key though lol.
Definitely try some third party keyboards, there are tons to choose from.

6 foot 6 here, no problems using SwiftKey tho. You can resize that keyboard. Maybe try that out?

No problems
6 ft 2, no problems with the size of the space bar. Never tried SwiftKey, like the black themed keyboard.

No solution. But yes, totally confirmed. I keep hitting the "b" button when going for the space. The odd thing is that the rest of the board is fine. Just that space. I think the bottom edge of the sensitivity region for the bottom row should be moved up a bit, along with the upper edge of the space key.

Gray line in bottom of the screen in some programs and in stock launcher.

Good afternoon.
Great device this one. I have the blue 12GB 256GB a few days ago.
I have only two things I dont like,
The first is a gray line in bottom of the screen in programs and in stock launcher, is not visible when I boot the phone or when I long push the power botton for shut it down, and for that reason I know that is not a amoled screen issue. Anyone knows what is that strange gray line?
The other thing is that I cant see a graphical line drainage line in battery statistics, like in all other android phones, anyone knows how can I se that graphics line?
Thanks in advance.
