I am running the latest BACKside on my V. Now, I don't care much for green so I started to apply different themes using the t-mobile theme chooser. Every theme I apply (and reboot) makes the buttons and check boxes/radio switches in the web browser disappear. Is this something anyone else has noticed?
I have noticed that issue as well with nearly every cm7 theme I've used... Thought it was just me or just the themes. Anyone else have any feedback?

This happens with me as well, with all CM themes. I'm on backside, but I don't remember if it happened on AOSP. It might just be a CM limitation.

Could it be something in our port of cm7.2

How do I change the stock (blur?) phone dialer background? I have tried a few and do not like any of the dialers out there. I just want to change the image file used for phones background because I dont like the stock file is blue with a white-ish center. ANyone know where the file is located?
U have to theme the stock apk. I am currently working on this. I am porting over the extreme dialer.

You could just use some of the stable ROMS out so far... CM7 from cybik is working well and CM7's dialer is pretty badass.
Can you take some screen shots of the dialer?

Cm7 w/ blue bionic theme
See now that is a nice looking dialer. Thx for posting screenshot.
I checked out cybik's thread but it looks nowhere near ready to consider. I need something stable as I am on the phone/email all day long and cant go with something not semi-fully functional.
There is no way to just change the background image using Root Explorer or something? I cant believe its not that simple.
The main thing I'm interested in changing is the blue background with the white center when showing contact photo.

Well hurry up already...
I have been running cm7 for two weeks as a daily and have no issues. I also use this phone for work and it is the the best combo I have used.

***USE AT YOUR OWN RISK***
Do not use with any other ROM besides neobuddy89's ICS Passion Version 10.6
This mod adds the onscreen software buttons for neobuddy89's ICS Passion ROM version 10.6 found here
This is based on evilisto's guide found here
What this Mod Does:
Adds onscreen buttons like you would normally find on phones and tablets which have no physical buttons.
This mod adds home, back and recent app buttons at the bottom of the screen (or on the right side in landscape mode)
Why would you want this?
1. because you can.
2. ever been in low light conditions, using your screen filter app to dim your screen nice and comfortably low when BAM your blinded because you hit the back button?
3. it looks neat.
Instructions:
1. backup everything in case you need to revert.
2. its a good idea to make a backup of your current framework-res.apk (found in system/framework)
3. disable your lockscreen (this is a current bug I hope to fix soon)
4. download the attached framework-res.apk
5. either use adb or a root file browser to replace the current framework-res.apk with the new one.
6. reboot (if you've done this through a file browser on the phone it will likely do this by itself)
6. enjoy
Current Known Issues:
1. The lockscreen becomes extra large and the locking mechanism is displayed slightly off screen. (you can still use it but it is very difficult to get the lock to catch)
2. the settings menu looks different, some of the text is not formatted correctly.
3. the keyboard overlaps slightly. (it is still usable but you might hit a soft button occasionally when going for the space bar)
4. this appears to take away the additional items on the reboot menu.
5. more of a downside than an actual bug and its likely implied but this takes up an extra little bit of your screen.
6. It made me re-sign in to google I cant say this will happen to everyone.
7. probably quite a few more bugs I haven't found yet.
Please feel free to let me know of any additional bugs you find.
Special thanks to Neobuddy for an awesome ROM
and of course to evilisto for the Idea.

I am 100% sure if you changed the screen resolution to something else ALL of those issues would be solved.

Changing the screen density would work but it also causes some app compatibility issues.
Mostly small issues like the apps not filling the screen.
But I am hoping to find a workaround that does not require this.
Of course if your already changing screen density then this shouldn't be a problem for you anyways
I'll play around with it and update the op with the correct density for those who want to go that route for now.
Thanks for the feedback guys.

Change density + market enabler = problem solved??
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
The market actually works it just makes you sign back in once after installing the mod.
And I'm not entirely convinced it wasn't just a fluke.
I've been playing with LCD density changer from the market and it doesn't seem to be changing the home screen for me randomly.
It does make the keyboard a bit smaller but pushes it to the left.
I'm still playing with it though.
Hopefully I'll find a good setting
Does anyone use a density changer on ics?
If so which app do you use?

Yeah I don't want to just flash this and be like ehhhh and then revert it... I want to be able to have a switch to turn it on and off, that'd be great, but its a bit hard to implement i would guess.
I'm still working on it but progress is slow during the week because of work. And my sister is getting married this weekend.
I expect to work on it a lot more next weekend. Although with any luck I'll get something working sooner.
Basically I've found that enabling the soft buttons seems to enable all tablet oriented options even when they are specifically set to off.
I'm currently trying to find a workaround for that.
I did find a couple other fun but mildly pointless options as well like allowing the lock screen to rotate.
Or disabling the screen turning on when plugging or unplugging the phone.
But I'll play with those a bit after I get the soft buttons fully working.

I think I found it.
When I recompile the apk its adding some stuff that I didn't tell it too.
Once I can figure out why, I think this will solve a good 90% of the bugs.
More to come soon..

From what I heard is that if you only have 1 keyboard enabled then it won't show up. For me though, when I only have 1 keyboard enabled sometimes the icon will be there and sometimes not...buggy.

Its probably because HTC sense screws with ics too much
FWIW - It doesnt happen on SlimRom with the default keyboard, but does happen with the TouchPal keyboard.....
good to know. im planning on flashing slimrom in a couple days after the verizon engineers heck out LTE in my area
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
I could be completely wrong about this but my understanding of the keyboard icon in your taskbar was happening because you have an "installed" keyboard. It's not stock. The keyboard application is what is putting that icon there.
Well, lets just say Im not going to use the HTC keyboard.. I installed the ICS keyboard from the market, and am using it until, I decide if I wanna flash a new rom (aka slimrom) that has the aosp keyboard built in.
Just in case some didn't know this. I really hate the standard launcher so tried others and worked (maybe u could do the samewith older ones.I don't know as I went for cm10 without playingwith stock
Iusenova launcher and couldn't be happier

Not with CyanogenMod 10/10.1, plus the OP states he/she is using CM10 with Nova Launcher.
That will remove the bottom stock bar, but will also completely change the operating system. If you're willing to install CM10, I would recommend it. At the moment, I don't think there is away to change the Stock "Bar" at the bottom.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=robj.floating.notifications I ran into this the other day and thought wow this works really well espcially for mycolorscreen set up i have curretnly with no status bar or anyting was really liking, i believe this is to replicate the "holo" feature on cm rom's you guys tried this what do you guys think??
So ive seen this out for a while now, and thought it was some cheesey knockoff version of Holo. I said to myself why waste my time. Then seeing this thread, and being bored I just gave it a go. Boy am I glad I did, ive run AOSP roms with holo and its still nothing compared to this. This is like simple multitasking amd they can be hidden whenever! Much better!
Thanks for being the one to make me finally try this out!

Been running it since build 2...big fan. It's great for quick views of emails/text etc when watching a movie or playing a game without having to exit and go to the app directly. You can view the header and then decide if you want to respond or not.
Really good find. can't wait to play with this

Put myself in hot-reboot city last night. Enabled this in accessibility, rocking Beans 18 and AOSP lock screen - just started hot booting to the lock screen. Touch the lock - cycle repeats. Pulled the notification bar to get into settings and turned it off. It stopped.
I'm guessing AOSP lock screen + Xposed status bar + this checked in accessibility = no bueno.

Same exact set up (minus xposed status bar) and had the same issue with rebooting. Issue started 5 minutes after installing the app and allowing accessibility. Issue stopped after I deleted the app. Gonna try to see if I can change a few things to get it working.

The issue is AOSP lockscreen and Accessibility settings. If you're on standard TW lockscreen, there are no problems. Had the same issue with LightFlow previously.
The only thing I have a problem with, and its probably something that cant be fixed is when I get the bubble on the lock screen and click on it ot doesnt unlock. Any fix for this?

Good to know.
I assumed as much, but I love the AOSP lock screen. No lock/pattern AND music controls. Plus, the clock looks cleaner.
How well does this app work without accessibility turned on? Or does it? I flipped it on at about 2 am and messed around for about 15 mins before I started my trip to Las Bootsville, so I didn't get any notifications then.
