[Q] CM7 - possible to remove phone signal strength bars? - Nook Color General

Installed CM7 nightly 12 and it is almost perfect. One thing that bothers me most is phone signal bars in the taskbar and "No service" message in the lock screen. Does anyone know if there is a way to get rid of those without rebuilding from sources?

Although I do agree with you, this is entirely cosmetic. I'm guessing that they will fix this, but they have much bigger fish to fry at this point.

Of course. Has been done on froyo. Waiting for a stable release on CM.

OK, thanks. I thought maybe I missed some settings switch, was worth asking.

Icon Text gets misaligned

i dont know why this is happening but every do often my icon text in the app drawer gets thrown off to the right. Any idea why this would happen? Im using the latest cyanogen mod with kspec theme. My phones only having that problem along with the 3g/EDGE issues, but im no business person that has to have 3g all the time so my main concern is the alignment with the icon text. I will try to get a screen shot if possible on here. But anyone know what I can do about this?
Thanks!
has been happening for me since stock. Unsure why, reboot usually fixes it for me.
Mine too, it happens sometimes and it fixes itself sometimes. (Had to reboot sometimes too) Does the rooted user has any experience with these ? Mine is stock
This is a pretty common problem with near all N1s, looks like an update from google is needed
I restart the device and everything become alright. Thanx all
Yes my N1 is rooted and i am running CM 5.0.5 i have the latest Amon Ra Recovery (Green Care bear) and i have the black Menu bar installed...come to think of it i didn't have these problems before i installed the black menu bar, but that might just be me being picky. who knows.
stock N1 does this, usually it messes up the text on an application that has just been installed
give it a try for yourself
eventually it seems to fix itself
Heh, remember this happening the first time when I installed Cyans rom. Scared me a little, but yeah, never had a time when a reboot didn't fix it.
Mine is stock, happens to me all the time but lately every app in the drawer goes bonkers. Just add it to the list I guess, I do hope the copious software bugs are fixed before any big update come out (like flash/ 2.2 in general) . Im going to really love this phone once the UI is stable.

[Q] Touchscreen issue

Hi everyone,
I was up to ICS Rom yesterday, but everytime i unlock screen, i cant touch in the bottom of the screen, cant typing with h, g, j and somewhere around it, but on the right, left or top screen i can still use normal. Does anyone know what happen and how to fix it?
When im in CM7 Rom is was fine and has no problem
PS: Sr for my bad english i really not good in grammar.
Same problem but different area
I have the same issue.
On Apex i had no issues but when i upgraded to SlimICS 3.2. The right side of the screen ocasionally becomes unresponsive.
That is, on any keyboard from approximately the 'i' to backspace horizontally, and from enter to the top of the screen.
This whole zone randomly decides not to work. the only fix is to turn the screen off and then turn the screen on again, or backing out of the application and reloading it. The application can be anything, chrome browser, swiftkey, messages, whatsapp.
Does anyone know what the issue could be?
I'm running slimics3.2 with semaphore ics 1.0
I'm also running slim 3.2 and had the same issue with the sephamore kernal. I just reflashec the essentials and everything worked perfectly for me.

I used the essentials kernel first and experienced the issue, i thought it was a kernel issue so I flashed semaphore afterwards. But I still have the issue...

I hate to say this, but its probably the fact the phone does not like ICS, it is more than likely some sort of hardware incompatibility issue.
I went through this exact same thing, it was on a 1009 or so build number captivate, no matter what flavor of ICS, none of them would work properly with the touchscreen hardware, there was always a spot of the screen, at the lower center 1/4 portion of the screen, that was unresponsive. Flashing a Froyo or Gingerbread rom, the touchscreen was perfect.
So.. I sold that Captivate, purchaced a refurb Captivate off Ebay, and touchscreen is perfect with ICS (CM9 is what I run).
Wish I had something more helpful, but that's my experience. Good luck with it.

Nova HD Rebuild Problems

HI guys. I flashed the latest Nova HD build last week, and up till now it has a few problems.
Speaker not working (the normal one not the in-call speaker)
I tried playing videos on youtube and games and even my music but it does not work at all, I checked and all the volume settings are full. I have tried many solutions like rebooting the phone, reflashing the rom, blowing the speakers. It's worth noting that the sound works on my headphones when they are plugged in. HELP?!
Glitch-y notification bar
Sometimes the notification bar toggles cannot be seen and the whole notification drop-down is blank. For this one I have no idea what is going on but when I open an app or something like that and then exit the notification bar comes back. This one is just irritating, nothing much though.
Battery life isn't as good as claimed but small issue, I lived through a short battery life on my Motorola Atrix before the screen got smashed after I unbootlocked it.
Thanks in advance!!
Also..
It's worth noting that it's not a hardware issue I believe as the speaker was working on the MIUI Rom I flashed on it when I got it as a gift and never touched it until recently, and the headphone icon in the notification bar does not show up when the headphones are plugged in, and I can't remember if this is supposed to happen.

In cwm made ​​three and flash ROM format. in aroma intaller not reformat and install the basic version (no custom). so try to find out if you have the same problem. What's important not to restore the system app with titanium backup.
Sorry for my English.
I'm sorry I didn't really get you. Are you suggesting that I flash a stock rom without backup and then switch back or flash a basic version of the rom without backup? Or flash cm9 stock without mods before switching back?

I dont have any bugs like you. Just try full wipe before flash the rom again.

Actually you need to format 2 cache and not the third (date format / factory) that will also clear the rom.In this condition do not lose anything of your information. From there, install zip from sd / sd choose zip and flash rom nova. In aroma installer asked you to select rom based (you choose the first three options) and install.
Inviato dal mio LG-P990
Sorry
Hi guys, sorry for the late reply, I've been busy at school lately. Well I've basically redownloaded the rom, completely wiped the phone, including the dalvik cache, installed the rom free of any tweaks, before reinstalling the desired rom, and both have no effect on the speaker. I'm really lost but I can't really be bothered to unroot my phone and send it in, and still have to pay for it.
p.s. I have another problem. Sometimes while scrolling, the scrolling isnt smooth esp. when trying to add widgets etc. or change the app operations. Like the words all blend together for a while like it's laggin before returning to normal. Is this normal?
Thanks for all your input!
Did you try to match RIL? Download getRIL (search in google play) and see if your RIL is matching. I'm new here, so I'm not sure if what I'm saying is correct, hehehe.

Cyanogen mod isn't installing

So I followed the steps here

and these.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1585619
After I rebooted after using the Heimdall app, my touchscreen was acting up, so instead of sliding to unlock, it would sort of move the slider on the right. I had to swipe downward inorder to unlock and the touchscreen was just wonky.
I am trying to install Cyanogen mod using the latest stable version offered on get.cm . it sort of keeps rebooting while installing, to a cyanogenmod splash screen. Although it's not centered and I can only see a few letters. It keeps doing back to something about checking the state of bml/mtd. and now its just in that off centered splash screen. Wtf is going on?
I have the SPH-P100 version and it had gingerbread.

I feel for you! I had the exact same problem with my SPH-P100 yesterday. I have been running CM10 nightlies for the last month with no problem until the p1c 1121 rom. It bootlooped on me, and would not even go to CWM, so I used the 2nd option (Holy Crap), which I've used quite a few times. I had the same problems you did (slider and rebooting). I just kept reinstalling it till it worked. I'd get the CM9stable on ok (same things as you were getting, so I reran it a couple of times in a row). Then I would try to put CM10 on and it would say the partition was wrong. I was getting very PO'd there for a while. It probably took about 8-10 hours till I was able to get it back, but the CM10 is worth it.
I managed to get it running by mounting the system. Is CM10 nightly stable enough to use as a daily ROM? I'm not planning on connecting it to the Sprint network so it'll be just a wifi tablet

I dont use the Sprint network on mine either. I love the CM10! It is pretty smooth running. I have been using the nightly CM10 roms for a month, and they get better every day. The problem I had might have just been my tab not responding correctly. I know a lot of devices have had stable CM10 roms come out in the last 2 weeks, so hopefully ours will soon!

Droid 4 JellyBean...The Good, Bad, and the Ugly

So, now we have it. But we need to look at the new "issues" we're all facing. Because we're going to need some help.
The Good
We lost a lot of Blurr (thank ya Jesus!) We have a faster, better camera. A more optimized kernal for what seems like an OS with lighter thumbprint. Its fast! We can disable dozens of needlessly running apps/services. New gallery is beautiful.
The Bad
We lost the "Exit" button in the browser. Google+ is in everything with options defaulting to send anonymous usage and target ads based on our data. Auto sign-in/up is everywhere. Nova Launcher keeps getting killed by Android Battery life seems way off. Factory reset is pretty much a requirement. Clock app is super weird. Verizon bloat seems like an extra appendage that won't be amputated. Smart Actions is still broken.
The Ugly
The font is terrible. No amazing wallpapers added.
We have ALMOST a Nexus experience. What are you guys seeing with update, and what problems have you fixed? I'm super concerned that I can't "Exit" the browser. I don't like things running in memory.
I love the new update. I got it from the soak test early this week. I did not wipe first. My nova launcher has never been killed and phone is running perfectly for me since Tuesday. Love it!!!
Sent from my DROID4 using xda premium
I'm loving it. It's so fast and less bloatware. Browser can't "Exit" just like all JB roms on all devices. We also lost sleep mode on power menu. Good to see we still have mass storage usb mode. It's been removed in all Moto new lineups. This is the best ota update I've ever applied on my Android devices.
The Good & Ugly!

Just last evening I checked the System Updates on my unrooted Droid 4 and there it was! Upgraded it.
Project Butter lives upto the mark. Works smooth like butter.
Font, could've done better.
The ONLY UGLY issue am facing:
My data from the network is somehow locked, or in short, not working. Visited Vodafone gallery & they checked the settings, which were fine, but still the data is not working by the network.
NEED HELP!
Please, suggest me how I can make the data work on my Droid 4!
Please!
Currently my phone is technically paralyzed because of this issue!
Nova works fine with me too.

I have several friends and relatives with Droid 4's and RAZR's. These Jelly Bean updates have been hit or miss with results.
-One Droid 4 was a brand new phone with date code 03/13 and HW B. This phone received the update quickly and smoothly. Operation has been perfect.
-Another Droid 4 had date code 16/12 and HW A, never rooted or modded, update failed 3 times, left the phone soft bricked, had to be SBF'd back to ICS. The new update will just not play nice with this phone, so it will need to be replaced.
-A RAZR MAXX got this update smoothly and battery life has been great, no lags or hiccups.
-A regular RAZR got this update and battery life is horrible, the phone gets hot, wiping cache and data did not fix it. No prior issues with ICS.
I'm guessing that Motorola may have used different components in different batches and some just will not run properly.
the shift button on the physical keyboard likes to stop toggling occasionaly. rebooting the phone fixes it for a while.
when it stops toggling, you have to push [shift] and [1] to make a "!", instead of [shift] and then [1].

yes i noticed this too. it's a little annoying but i think there should be an update to the update coming out soon. right now id like to figure out how i can reflash with jb possibly using rsdlite as i did with ics but someone said flashing to ics now would brick my d4. im getting random reboots like once a day, but i think it may have something to do with my attempt at installing lbe which sent the phone into bootloop. so i want to clear it all and start from the top.. but how?

Matter of fact, I had the phone root'ed, stock tether enabled on ICS. Unrooted the phone to get the update to install and once upgraded to JB, my tether was still working, so the upgrade did not reset the value in the SQL database.
Works brill anyhow.

Weird - I'm pretty certain it had reset for me during the upgrade.
My D4 had the stock rom + the Google Now hacked into it, plus the latest version of Hashcode's CM10, which I'd been using steadily since the Bluetooth bugs were fixed. (Around two weeks ago.) On the stock ROM, I'd always had issues of the phone occasionally (often) going crazy with background processes or something where it would heat up quite a bit and the battery would drain quickly. I also had intermittent Bluetooth issues with my car connection, where it often wouldn't connect, requiring a reboot or toggling BT, and it would sometimes lose the connection after a call.
Running CM, it stayed cool and had much longer battery life, and BT worked much more reliably.
Removing the Google Now hack to install the JB update wasn't going smoothly, so I ended up just using RSDLite and wiping the phone completely then installing the JB update manually (it wasn't showing yet as an OTA.) It's definitely faster, BUT...
The Shift key often doesn't work correctly, as has been mentioned here
Bluetooth is wonky again and I have to tell it over and over to pair with my car
Mobile data just stopped working yesterday, even after rebooting, until I manually turned off and on mobile data
Battery life is atrocious; it has been getting hot a lot and I'm probably getting not much more than half the battery life that I got in CM. Looking in the Battery info, Screen is usually the biggest battery user, but I always have it either set to Auto or to a very dim display. Looking at CPU usage shows nothing obvious. It's common for the battery to get to 95-100' F or higher. Right now it's behaving and only at 72' F - it must know that I'm complaining about it.
I'm hoping that we'll soon see (if we haven't already; I haven't checked yet) a CM based on the new kernel, so we get everything working but with the better battery life and such. Video was the only issue that I was still seeing with it.

Have you checked, that you APN still is entered in the phone ? Upgrade from ICS to JB removed my manual APN entry. I just re-entered it and all working.

I wonder why they axed sleep mode, I used that a lot. Does CM or AOKP still have it?
Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk
I've noticed that I'm seeing 3G/H notification in the notification bar while connected on WiFi. It didn't do this in ICS. I wonder whether that's just a cosmetic change or whether it has an impact on battery life. I've not noticed the shift problem, but the Caps Lock light doesn't seem to work any more.
Cheers,
Steve
