Hey all,
So, I'm running Bad Boyz ROM v1.3, Android 4.3. The task/notification/status bar (I never remember the correct nomenclature) is generally transparent or black on home screens, and generally black when in other apps. However, during certain instances, like when going into settings, the bar changes to this grey gradation/textured look. This same look also pops up briefly whenever the home key is pressed, even when the phone is already on a home screen. I know that its really minor and inconsequential, but man does it ever bug the CRAP out of me. Anybody know what I can do to fix this, or can point me to a how to or available MOD? I'd appreciate it.

I searched but didn't do a great job. Awhile back I downloaded from here I assume is a stock HTC Kaiser theme that was black which made the windows mobile task bar and such a black/grey color. I had to do a hard reset on my phone yesterday to help with some issues that were plaguing my phone like not allowing me to answer calls, text messages, not allowing me to write text messages and not letting me turn the phone off using the on/off button. I was hoping someone still had this background floating around. I'd love to get it back cause the blue and green from before you do anything looks terrible. Also I've KasierTweaked my dialer and it stays blue for some reason. I wondered if the original black theme changed its color on the dialer pad making for a grey background and black key pad or if its a download. I just remember it looks like the WM version but was just black and grey in color. Trying to get my phone back to how I liked it. Thanks.
I've recently been trying many of the great themes for CM7 and one thing I notice that bothers me is a transparent notification menu. I strongly prefer a solid one.
This got me wondering if I'm the only one? For me it just seems cleaner, less distracting to have it solid. Since I can't interact with what's visible underneath what's the point in seeing it? Not saying it's wrong just a difference of opinion.
Anybody care to share your preference and why?
I've preferred the transparent forever but since gb the solid has grown on me some....
I really love the transparent drawer. I started on solid, but I literally won't change ROMs unless I can get a transparent notification drawer. It's just a cool aesthetic effect.
I must say that the transparent drawer did look "cool" even though it served no real purpose.
However, I am starting to get used to the dark, solid, drawer on CM7 Nightly's now.
Would be nice to have the option though.
I'm not sure if the option is still there, but it used to be part of the back ground color setting - just slide the alpha to the left...
Hi folks.
I am having a really odd thing happening to my home screen icons.
I have searched the viper rom threads and HTC one threads but can't find anything similar.
I decided to put a few icons on my homescreen in a grid. (see first pic)
When I go to select any icon they all jump to left. (see second pic)
If I go into apps and back to the home screen the icons return to the original position...
The other odd thing is if I try and select the far most right icon it registers as a press on a blank screen. (ie it takes me to the widget selection screen and not the app I selected. It seems as if the grid is messed up and registering hits one icon off.
Example, if I try to hit settings icon in first pic it registers the people icon...
Anyone have any idea what is going on?
If it helps, I am on Viperone 3.5 Rom with the 4.06.1540.2 firmware,Hboot 1.5.5 and I'm S-OFF.
Thanks to anyone who can enlighten me on this weird behaviour!
Anyone?
Anyway, I've found a workaround for now if anyone else has this problem...
I removed blinkfeed and added a blank screen where blinkfeed would have been and it stopped happening.
If I add a blank homescreen to the left and put icons on the screen next to it (my main center screen), this jumping around stops.
Weird but it seems to work.
Sorry if this has been asked but I Googled and couldn't find much (I suspect because of the keywords- it wants to show me how to change the background or how it's available in white)... but, after the 5.0 update, there is one "annoyance" setting that I'm hoping can be reverted. Everything is now white instead of black (menus, app drawer, etc.). Can this be reverted to the darker theme easily?
As far as I know there is no way to revert to the "black theme".
Oddly, G's news app has a dark theme built in, but thats the only one I can find
I found this picture on stuff.tv and after digging through everything I can possibly find to use to customize my homescreen on Android Lollipop, I'm honestly not sure if there's anything that lets you change the status bar and soft keys in this particular way.

So is it a mock-up? Or is there actually something like this out there? Anyone have a clue?
My apologies if this is the wrong forum for this, I'm not sure where else it would fall under
That's possible, I've been out of the game for too long now so there's probably newer easier ways that I know nothing about but it looks like tablet mode on paranoid android rom to get the bottom status bar with the rest built using something like Zooper or klwp etc etc
Am I showing my age mentioning pa or is it still going?
