Can anyone help? The notification area at the top of the screen is dark when I'm at the home screen. How do I make it lighter? http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/57b3e372ebe32/Screenshot_20160816-205632.png?

Figured it out. Went into Nova Launcher settings >> Look and feel >> Turned off Dark Icons and Transparency.
Problem solved!

I thought I would try Apex on my shiny new Nexus, and when I put it in portrait, I have a lot of space left at the bottom. Is there a way to change it, or is it just the nature of the beast?

I'll have to check when I get home tonight, but I don't think I have that issue. I haven't noticed it yet, at least.
There's another thread on this as well.
Here is an example... The grid stops... I am going to try increasing the grid number.

Is that tablet ui?
What is your vertical margin set to? Try making it small or none.
Yeah, Apex uses tablet ui as the default... Well I assume it does as I didn't change any settings. I fixed the problem though by changing the vertical margin.

I wonder why it isn't set to none or small by default.

This worked great for me as well, wasn't happy with the look of the vertical margin at all. Now it looks great!

I was just trying to clear the first page of my home screen so I could enjoy the most of my wallpaper, but still have some stuff over on the second screen. However with the new Google experience launcher pages delete when there is nothing on them.
So I thought it would be great if someone made a simple transparent widget app that would allow users to have blank screens on their N5.

Try using Minimalistic Text.
Should be able to create your own empty widget (displaying no text) that is completely transparent.

Minimalistic text works! Thanks. (FYI had to join the goggle+ beta group to get the latest update. Regular version in the play store didn't show any widgets in the drawer)

I didn't like the look of other launchers. The icons always seemed to small. I use Apex on my phone.

The widget is from "eye in the sky" weather app. It's a great weather app and the widget is customizable and looks good

I couldn't find the original file. So I made a blank screen and cropped out my notification bar. It's from a Tab Pro 8.4. Hope it formats well to your note 8.

If you look at the stock wallpaper long enough you will find it is a rat climbing down a tree on the right side

What wallpaper resolution do you use? I can't find one which looks good on it. They are either blurry or cropped wrong?

Using nova launcher on the z1, 4.3, when I open a folder on the home screen, the whole screen gets a little brighter. Same when using Swype keyboard, though that's not always consistent.
Anyone else get this, is it normal?
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
didnt have this problem when i was using nova launcher on 4.3 n 4.4
Is that only in nova launcher?
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
It's not nova launcher. Its the way the panel of the screen for Z1 is.
To test it well, using your Tapatalk to test. Set the theme to a dark one. Then come to a thread and start scrolling.
You'll notice that texts get more white when a bright picture is included in what you scroll, if you go past it, white text go back dull.
Its more like a dynamic thing but it sucks.
It just proves how poor the quality of the lcd is coupled with the viewing angle.

Ok so I feel like a total noob here but I can't seem to find my live wallpapers. I have installed them but in the wallpapers tab in settings they are not there to select.
Can anyone point this fool in the right direction? Thanks, and I appreciate your time in advance.

IIRC if you have it set for the lock screen only it won't show the live wallpaper. You can only put live wallpapers on the home screen or home screen AND lock screen.
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
I looked for that option, used to be in the upper right corner, but it's not there anyone. Just have no clue on this live wallpaper thing.

As far as I can tell, they've separated the lockscreen from the home screen. You can set live wallpaper on the home by opening the lw app, but lockscreen is still a mystery for me. Pissing me off

I also can't figure this out... trying to set muzei as my home and lock screen...
I downloaded live wallpaper picker from the store and that has allowed me to change the home screen. Still at a loss on the lock screen though.
Anyone else got any ideas? Thanks again folks!

I got my live wallpaper working by going through themes. I found a theme I liked and applied it...live wallpaper came with the theme.... after I went back in and just changed the homescreen wallpaper to my liking leaving the live wallpaper on the lockscreen
has anyone found any live wallpapers that actually show as options under ''My Wallpapers" in "Wallpapers and Themes"? I was thinking it might be some apps that need an update because of some new system change Samsung's put in place but... if no Live Wallpapers at all are being recognised then they might just be trying to scrap the feature?? we shouldn't have to settle for a theme's live wallpaper as the only way to get one on the lock screen....
Having the same problem been trying to figure it out for HOURS lol..

I use 500 Firepaper as my Live wallpaper and it does not appear in TouchWiz Wallpaper option. I see it in Nova and Apex launchers but do not have the lock screen option in those
Freaking annoying.

Same. I have to set it from within the 500 firepaper config app... and there's no option to set it as lock screen.

I've downloaded a few themes from the theme store on my s7e which have "animated" or "live" lock screen wallpaper, and when you go to the lock screen it's just a black screen, nothing.
Black luxury has an aNimated lock screen wallpaper. It's very nice
