[Q] AOSP Signal Icons -- MOD - Moto X Q&A

Greetings fellow Moto X users!
As you all know the Moto X is rocking Android 4.4, a slightly dated version of KitKat. For those of you who are unaware, Android 4.4 has some slight UI inconsistencies, and frankly they are starting to annoy. For those of you who are lost, and a trying to figure out what I mean, this is what I mean...

As you can see, all the icons follow their own metrics. Nothing lines up and the worst offender is the battery icon, which you can clearly see. The good news is Google fixed it (sort of... they mostly just improved it a little) and now things aren't as bad. As seen below....
Basically I'm looking for help to get an Xposed Module made up or a modified apk to get these icons aligned.
My version is a little more optimized...

Have you tried SignalIconsAOSP?

[Q] Expanded Notification Bar settings [SOLVED]

I'm new to all this Android stuff, I got my first android phone last Christmas & have (slowly) learned a lot, mainly here at XDA. I'm generally happy with my theme with one exception. My carrier name (Cincinnati Bell) is black on black (see screen shot). Does anyone know where this setting is? I've been searching (& searching) through framework-res.apk for the past week without any luck.

Help with contact pictures in other apps

First of all, hello everyone! I recently got the HTC one m8 as an upgrade from the galaxy nexus. (This phone is so amazing, Jesus help me lmao) coming from a nexus, flashing and things are pretty normal for me. I know most terminology and I've already got this thing rooted and s-off'ed so I can fix the issues I did have with the phone (like the millions of system status icons in the status bar with no room for my notifications) . I can't get enough of this phone lol.
Anyway, into the small issue I have.
Contacts that don't have pictures are linked to my Facebook contacts.
In other texting apps (i don't like stock app for very nitpicky reasons) contacts that are linked don't show pictures, is there a way to fix this? Aside from downloading everyone's picture.

Moto display pixelated

Hi guys,
I have got the following problem since i have updated to marshmallow. The icons in Moto Display have lost their sharpness and are very pixelated:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It seems like the anti aliasing is turned off for the icons?
This is so since the Lollipop, amoled screens have the ability to trigger only the pixels needed for displaying certain content.
In the case of Moto screen, serves to economizare energy.
Sorry 4 my english!
Yes, but look at the numbers. The numbers are sharp, but the icons arent. This is how it looked like on lollipop:
That's something you may be just noticing now.
Icon resolution has always been more pixelated in moto notifications. Since kit kat. It's too reduce battery consumption. I've noticed it since day one.

Weather icons

Hello, dear developers!
I did my best but could not succeed, so now I'm asking you for help.
I need good looking, simple and easy to understand weather icons.
If they are entirely white and come with a free license it would be great.
Otherwise they should stay readable after being colorized white.
The best icons I could find were from the latest MIUI Weather.
Sadly inside the apk there are only very low resolution ones.
If someone manages to provide better versions of them it will be enough.
I'm providing a screenshot to illustrate what I'm aiming for:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks to everyone spending their time to contribute and happy holydays!

Question Giant Startscreen Icons

My aunt bought her M32 last week. I did some debloating and apps migration for her and everything's fine so far. Only the startpage icons are SO TERRIBLY BIG. The grid is 3x5 and can obviously not be changed.
Is the M32 mainly targeted to elderly or visually impaired users?
best regards,
Philandroid

Meanwhile I've seen images of other Samsung Galaxy M32 Phones with normal looking desktops. Could it be I damaged something by de-activating an essential stock funktionality?

Today I eventually installed the Nova Launcher. I knew it from a couple of Lineage installations i've made. It comes with configurable app grids. So verything's fine now. At least for the moment...
Thanks for your patience
Phil
