Can those on Froyo please report if you're seeing this? I'm seeing mixed responses! Make sure you are using the STOCK Launcher! If you're using another Launcher chances are they used the previous bugged images, that's why.
Note: STOCK Launcher, please. If you're having this bug with another Launcher, feel free to reply but please state which Launcher you're using, and if you can, contact the dev and tell him to fix it . If the dev is interested, prash has fixed those images and they are available here: http://github.com/cyanogen/android_...mmit/afc8145a97ed4a6a1335aa625a4a9b972fb1622a
Hi all,
In Launcher2, the folder images seem to be misaligned. Take a look at the following screenshot (the part between the title and the contents of the folder):
It'd be good if someone could get it fixed! I would but I'm really bad at 9-patch images. MontAlbert has kindly helped me a few times but it's still misaligned, he think it might be due to the code in Launcher2.
Your thoughts/solutions?
This is still an use on Froyo 2.2 as I can see...
ok ill try and this fixed for 2morrow

Not on my 2.2
I fixed this in CM source recently for 2.1, and running froyo now it seems Google has fixed it themselves.

Do not have this issue in 2.2 Froyo for me seems to be aligned

I have it in 2.2
The main problem I see with these folders is not the alignment bug, but simply that they look ugly !
Do you guys think it would be possible to skin them and maybe add a little bit of transparency (or maybe a gradient) in the background ?
What a waste of time! I think this post serves to no purpose. There is no mulfunction here, only a visual misalignment almost invisible. Try to focus on other real problems for example the scrolling of programs on the original launcher. My 2 cents.
rgl12miami: What is your problem? There are people working on code, and people working on graphics as well. prash has put in effort to fix a Google bug, and calling it a waste of time really pisses me off. A bug is a bug, no matter how big or small. If every minor bug was overlooked you'd get a system with many small unimportant bugs?
BlueScreenJunky: Stay on topic? =) There're skinned Launchers, maybe you should check out Themes and Apps section?

I've seen this happen when I edited the background .9 patch file.
Even though the patch file "appeared" to be ok, it rendered exactly like your screenshot.
britoso: Yeah! That's what happened to me back then too. Ok, I just re-tried adding a folder in Launcher2 in CM5.0.7.1, and the bug is still there . prash?
It is fixed on Froyo on both my N1s. It is still, however, a bug in Cyan 5.0.7.1 and it has to be in code somewhere because I couldn't fix the image no matter how hard I tried. I haven't tried pulling in the image from Froyo yet but it probably won't work. It's worth a try, though. And for the record, this is not a "small" bug. It annoys me so much because I use folders a lot and see this bug 500 times a day.
AndroidAppCritic: Thanks for the feedback. I too, believe it is in the code now...
Folder window looks good to me, no problem in froyo. I will do some testing on my side to see if any other luncher changes this. Will report back.

Hello fellow Arc owners.
I have a quick question for you all.
What do you wish your handset could do that it can't?
Something you've always wanted to be able to do with your phone but has never happened, no-one's ever found a way.
Whatever this something is, it has to be possible to do by way of an app - so no super-high-res screens, batteries that last a year on a single charge or anything else hardware related, we're just talking software.
And I'm not talking an updated GingerBreak or something like that. I mean a proper, legit, above board idea.
I'd love to hear any/all sensible ideas, thanks.
NB: I'm not looking to steal anyone's ideas, if you've got a plan for the next killer app then go for it and I wish you all the best.
I'm just trying to find out if there's a niche out there that could be filled...
Im thinking......facial or thumb print unlock screens.....no idea why though.

Thumb print.. won't be feasible on current screens
And facial.. would take too long compared to swiping ?
A snap shot feature would be nice like a system restore. I know there are way to do it in Recovery but it would be nice to have a application within Stock ROM because Recovery is not available within Stock we need to Flash the custom ROM like CM for it.
A better (and free) lock screen could be good ! ..
I used to love how I could use the iPhone/iPod as a touchpad to control the mouse on the computer. Something similar for the arc would be a good idea. Should be graphically pleasing though.
I love to be able to use the camera button unlock the phone directly to the camera app, by long pressing it, so it doesn't happen by mistake. And when you turn off the screen or press the back button it would go back to being locked.

As mentioned, finger prints would require different hardware.
Facial recognition is simply fraught with too many problems to be practical.

Really !! You know how to create a snapshot? Or access it?
Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread Allows Screenshots Without Rooting
Don't know anything more about it though, sorry.
Sorry I think you got me wrong ...! Snapshot i meant a complete image of the system so we can restore it back to previous state. Let's say if something screws up we can restore the image
Right, ok.
I thought you had made two suggestions - screenshots being one and backups being the other.
I could be wrong but I'm not sure that's possible to do unless you're in recovery. I have a feeling that it's only possible to copy certain parts of the OS when it's not running.
As I say, I could be completely wrong but I can't help but feel that there's a reason why recovery is needed to made Nandroid backups.
May be I want to capture video of the activities I do on my device (just like capturing screenshot)...
Though m not sure if its achievable or not!!!
an app which can change anything in the system .. like the default wallpaper settings ..i dont mean the main wallpaper ... change the color .. change the notification bar ... but that easy change anything in the system ... where u can feel easy on making ur own system ... but the problem i dono how to make i hope somebody go on with my idea .... its free for u all ^_^ ... the first who will do this plz let me be the first one who tries it ^_^
thx
I am expecting an application that can show the time and other notification when screen is off. It means that the time can be checked without needing to wake up the screen. W 800 used this technology before. Very useful!

+1 , and the time/notifications have to move up over the screen after each minute (like a screensaver) (like Nokia/Symbian has)

Do you mean something like night clock or bed clock from the Market?
a widget to toggle between "WCDMA preferred" and "2G only".. and not one that's just a short cut to the network settings menu.

Hi All,
I am currently using the latest EWJet Rom and I really like it.
The only thing that surprised me was that in the previous versions, there was no transparency background (when displaying a menu, there was a dark background I could not modify).
In this version (3.5), the background uses transparency, and we get the homescreen background as a background in menus (instead of the dark).
I don't like this, I feel like I cannot ever find a background that allows me to see clearly the text in the menus.
Does anyone know how to remove this background transparency?
At the moment I just put a black background in my homescreen so that I can get a black background in the menus. So I would really enjoy a REAL solution !
Thanks
Can I get any help about this issue ?
In the recent posts of the EWJet Rom thread, someone writes something about a "no transparency zip" but I cannot find it...

1) I used search before posting (even though this is my first thread on this forum, I am reading it for several months --> this is the first time I do not find the answer by myself)
2) I do not want to change Rom, I wrote that I like it. I personnaly believe it is the fastest Rom on X10.
Moreover, there was an answer to the guy who wrote about the "no transparency zip", saying that it only works for the notification bar, not for the menus.

And yes, I mean settings ! (And system app backgrounds in general)
I do not know how you can solve this, but I am willing to learn if you can explain a little. If not, no problem, I am quite sure I will be interested in this later and search by myself.
have u tried the remove_transperacy zip provided with the OP of EWjet rom?

All you need to do is update the (i think 4) background images in the framework-res.apk and semcGenericUXP.apk (both in system/framework/) turn it back into the sony wave if you like but. on a side note.
does the rom have tinting or are the apps all FULLY transparent. eg. look at the atached pic.
the dialer part is FULLY transparent and the part where the numbers come up is 80% tinted

For me the most welcome change is... *drumroll*.. folders! lol. The drag and drop kind, the ICS imitating kind. Mmm. I love the ease of use with these folders and I had tried all kinds of programs and such. After installing ICS on my Captivate and using the folders I was just not satisfied with anything less.
The "trash can" you are talk bout.. Is that the "drag, hold, drop to unistall"? Because it is still there, hasnt gone anywhere with this update. If you are not seeing it check your settings.
In addition to the ICS folders there are other random ICS features/thingies built into the new ADW EX. I love love love the new update, disappointed to hear you dont.
EDIT: Oh and you asked about the hidden dockbar.. I never used it myself but I think I read in the "setup" for the new ADW EX that it is still there, it just behaves differently now since you can scroll the dockbar (on phones, on tablets you wont have to scroll because there will be enough room for all the icons).

I just checked and I could not find the option to move the trash can to the bottom either, maybe that option has been removed. Personally I prefer it on top and always had it there.. Hopefully you will see the value of ADW EX after playing around with it a little, but hey everybody likes things differently right? Good luck.

Yeah some of the new features look nice, but i've already caused trouble...
One new bug btw. Set 5 icons on main dock bar, rotate in potrait and landscape, and tell me why this new update ****ed up the order. Previous version did it correctly, this version orders them differently
im sure liking the new one... tho one thing that is bugging me is i cant seem to edit the icon in the dock... been trying to get the ICS app draw icon there but i cannot edit the icon pic.... hmm
honestly I'm using this ICS 3d mint theme on the market for CM7 with the new ADW and its awesome it really looks beautiful and also the new scrolling dock bar really helps get rid of all the annoying widgets that are memory hogs.

These are the post I like most. First, you have a guy passionate about his phone and the app. Secondly, you get a good explanation/changelog about the new version, and C. You find the answer to simple questions to things like settings because people are so annoyed by the post. Don't kill the guys passion, just tell him why he's wrong so we can all benefit.

Hey, just figured this out. If you click the theme image it takes you to a page with a button marked theme setup. Click that and you'll find the option for it in there.

Hi,
sadly, this only works for the default theme (like you mentioned), it doesn't seem to work for the other, downloaded ones. At least it doesn't seem to work for the one I'm using.
If it really can't be changed, that would be quite a poor decision from the developers not to allow swapping temperature types for other than the default theme... Even if it's a free app and a free theme..
When choosing the theme in the bottom left side you will find a button named theme set click on it and this where you can change to C °
