[SOLVED] Background - not same color.....!!! - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have little problem with my background color. I use the standard background wallpaper "nexus". The strange thing is that on my homescreens (see pic 1) it is much more lighter as on ther applications screens (see pic 2) the screen is on the lowest light-level.
Why is the color not same??? and is it possible to make the color same?????
Thanks....

Its meant to be like that. Its meant to be a fading effect. If you don't like it try another launcher though that is all you can do. It is normal and not an issue.

so I can not have same color ? ? ? Strange - on my SGS it was 100% same color :-(
If anybody have an idea to get the same color - please tell me....

Samsung changed their touchwiz launcher so it fades the background. Nothing you can do but install a different launcher that doesn't do this.

i made only a black background, thats easy with the app colors.

I made a black background to. Thanks guys

Solid color in Gallery?

How can I get a solid background in the gallery app? It's impossible to see black text icons for example, when the background also changes to black because it stretches out the image and uses it as a backdrop. I want to disable that effect and just have a solid gray grainy backdrop.

My guess would be a fairly simple xml edit would do the trick, but the hard part would be finding the right place and hoping it doesn't break anything.
I don't want to break anything. Maybe there is another simple gallery app in the market? Anybody know of one?

There's an app called colors, or something to that effect.....

[Q] Theme Q - Editing Widgetlocker Icons (Photoshop)

Hi,
I would like to use some icons for lock sliders using Widgetlocker, but I would like to change the default icons slightly. Basically I want the backgrounds on the icons to be different. Unfortunately I have no experience with Photoshop or any other graphics program.
The default dialer icon has a grey background (please see attachment). I would like to change it to the red background (also provided). Then the email/messaging icon I would like to have a yellow background exactly like the one shown behind the mute icon (I couldn't find that background alone without an icon on it already).
If someone with a bit of know how could please do this for me and upload the new icons. I have also provided some other icons as examples of other icons that have already been done with these backgrounds.
Thanks in advance

JB grey notification bar background

I've stock rom on my S3 (rooted), and did an update from ICS to JB yesterday - since that my notification bar background is dark grey (instead of black as it was in ICS). I've a very clean "theme": solid black on all pages - I don't like colorful themes (maybe with moving bubbles ) - and my black start-screens don't look very nice now with an dark grey bar on top. I've searched a lot and didn't find anything - is there an easy way to set the background color of the notification bar to either transparent or to black? - without installing a theme (which I'm sure modifies things I don't want to be modified). Or is there a recommendation for a simple (!) app which can set this color? many thanks Gerald
You didn't search properly. There is a thread in the themes and apps section with a fix.

There is a reason why the status bar is grey and it's the same reason why you shouldn't have a black background on a amoled screen: screen burn.
In short dark colours corrode your beautiful and very expensive screen.
My suggestion: switch to a grey background!
Ps.Once you get used to the grey status bar, a black one looks odd!

Need a wallpaper created!

I am looking for a very generous person to make me a custom wallpaper since I have no idea how to make them.
I am looking for something very simple. (I think it's simple anyway)
I want a very simple, dark, holo (blue), maybe even with the Nexus logo involved with it, background.
On the left most screen, I want, in 4.2.2 font and holo blue colour "OTHER"
Second left most screen I want, once again in the same font and colour "GOOGLE"
Middle/Home screen, same font, colour and style "SOCIAL"
Second right most screen, same font, colour and size "GAMES"
And finally, the right most screen, same font, colour and size "UTILITIES"
If anybody could do this for me it would be grat!

Why don't you download an abstract wallpaper with the colours you want and make the rest with minimalistic text?

How stupid/forgetful (please select one) of me!
Do you know any good wallpaper sites? I've tried Zedge and I can't find what I'm looking for, or at least nothing that is high enough resolution, and if possible I want something that doesn't scroll when you change screens. Or is that a setting?

Yes, this is a setting. Have you tried google images and changing resolution to 2560x1600? There are some nic abstract wallpapers. You can also try with 1920x1080.
I just go to Google images and type in 2560x1600...get tons of images

any LIVE colour changing, keyboard apps?

i was wondering, can anyone or did anyone ever made a keyboard apk where it changes colours in real time? if you know any links please tell me!! also what do think about this idea?
i own an xperia z2... yes i know i should upgrade, its 2016 but i like my phone
Not exactly sure if you mean changing colors in real time means the keyboard changes according to the app's color. Here are some apps I know of that dynamically change color depending on app color or status bar color.
Minuum Keyboard
Flat Colored Keyboard
Sorry XDA won't let me post links yet.
when i say "LIVE" i mean the colours actually change different colours ...like an RGB led strip....
but thanks for the names of the apps tho... highly appreciated :good::good::good:
flexy keyboard is good for me
