Guys, I've noticed this on all ICS ROM's that the text in notifications and on lockscreen is squashed and not looking good, seems like the text size has been compressed which makes it unreadable/look bad. I tried changing the font size in settings but it has no effect on notification drawr and lockscreen. Please help me fix this, this thing spoils the beauty of ICS
U first stop creating a new thread for all the problems u are facing.. instead u can pm anyone of our devs and ask .. don't overload xda server .. we are having more than 2 discussion threads for ics, u can ask there ..
What am I supposed to SEE? There's not even a frickin' screenshot attached of your "squashed" text.

Like lolphirae said, you didn't attach any screenshot so we cannot know how your text looks.
Did you try Roboto font on a GB rom? Roboto is more square-y than Droid, maybe it's that combined with our MDPI screen...

How do you make coffee? Oh crap,wrong forums..I meant to post in Starbucks...ha...yeah if you honestly don't know how to flash a kernel,than give yourself a big hug because you'll be that moron who screws his/her phone up....To OP,I'm not positive about why you seem to have that problem..I never recognized it while using any ICS rom...did you ever try using spare parts to increase/decrease the size? Either way,ill agree with what was initially posted. Its better to find an expert or intermediate user who can guide you to your solutions,irregular posts are the reasons why some devs are leaving..I can't say I understand why only because when I was developing on my T-Mobile g1. What seems to have been years ago. Blind just ignore the dumb questions and comments....I enjoyed doing work arounds and code work,who cares about all these rules on XDA...Anyways,if you find a solution b4 the thread is locked,please share with the rest of us

OK been looking for awhile now and just cant find any real info for changing the background,and icons in the lockscreen especially for the newer GB roms.
I've got the sence lockscreen now and like the way it performs so all I'm wanting to do is change the wallpaper and icons.

What a stupid name for a ROM
From the home screen. Menu,personalize, locksreen, turn to one, click settings, then click on one of the 4 icons to change.

If you have it set to display wallpaper on lock screen, just change your regular wallpaper and it will change your lock screen wallpaper as well.
Cool rom bro, could I see some screenshots and a changelog?
No I'm not asking about how to use my phone..I do know how to change it to the others that came on the phone...BTW ADW dont let me get to personalize anymore anyway.

OK maybe I need to be a little more clear about my questions...
how about somebody telling me where the file for the lock screen is located and what I have to do to change the background and icons once I'm in the file.
I'm trying to make my wallpaper differnt from whats on the phone and would like all the icons to match
Don't be any more clear. Just put it in the right section. Q and A!

Woah, slow down there son. No need to lump us old school Kiss Army in with the ICP juggalo tomfoolery. Very few FANS wore the makeup ... just the band.
By the way ... have you figured out magnets yet?
I may be way out of the loop but aren't the ICP tools referred to as juggaho's?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I didn't write this thread for a debate on what juggalos do or don't do...I just want to know if the .apk for the lockscreen can be changed and if so how.
I didn't bust into your threads asking about your way of life,I would expect the same.
Just so you know, they're making fun of you because you didn't read the rules, and now you're just blatantly disrespecting those telling you that you're not following them by ignoring what they've told you to do. You're disrespecting everyone on this forum and demanding respect in return? You see the problem?
Thrown by Zeus himself
Got to agree ninja. I too am a Juggalo, love the pc btw, but you would friendly get a answer faster if you moved the thread to the general or Q&A section.
That being said... These self loving pricks in this forum can suck a bag of dicks. If you would just answer the question the thread would die. Or if you were just more polite about it I am sure he would have moved the post. But alas you decided to degrade and mock this guy because of the music he likes. You are all just so happy to bully someone because it is not you. Just stick to the forum and have your comments relate to android issues and leave the personal stuff out.

Thread moved to q&a.
Some of the things I like most about the ICS leaked builds:
The fact that the ICS browser allows a real full screen view, hiding the status bar. This is in Settings>Lab now, but I hope they don't remove it!
The data usage measuring option.
The new task manager.
The idea of syncing bookmarks with Chrome, which I've not used yet.
What am I missing? What are some things that you like?

GTalk multi-account
I really love GTalk now. If I sign in 2 of my gmail accounts, can't switch between of them and have them both online
I've been coding for Android for awhile now, but just with a basic UI. I'm coding an app for a friend in which I simply retrieve his tweets, and Facebook statuses, and I wanted to have a sleek UI for it. I know that since every phone runs ICS, which means they won't get the Holo theme(<3). I wanted to know if anyone could lead me in the right direction, or even help me code the app. Are there templates that I can use, or what? lol. Thanks!

hi.
could you please post it here? i am also looking for some nice ui component.
thanks a lot!
My best advise would be not to follow what most app developers do. Use the built in framework for most of your layout needs. You program will run faster and you will get a better over all UI no matter what version they are using. To many people fill their apps with color coding and images that are not needed. You an jack right into the base framework files for most of what you will need
first screen shot is mine i have GS2 ginger bread 2.3.3 i just want to know how can i change my status bar icon (battery.clock,wifi,signal) in any ways other then which come when i bought i am new so please help like screen shot which i capture on this forum help
I'm not going to hold your hand nor is anyone else on this forum, but you need to learn to read and search. The image icons you're seeking to change/modify are stored in SystemUI.apk.
Good luck.
Or can I atleast reduce the space between them.(clock battery signal wifi) help..help..

Listen man, I understand you're new here but it'd help if you gave out more information about the firmware you're using in order to better enable people help you out. You spewing out help, help, help, doesn't help out anyone. Please be more informative and others here will be able to better assist you in your endeavors.
Since I'm bored, pull your systemui.apk and I'll take a look at it.

Due to a "dev" attempting to kang this and not give me credit for the framework transparency mod after he has asked me to be a part of the ROM, assist him in the transparent aspect, doing the edits for this individual, and not even originally credited for my work and then only being credited for "Wallpaper Show" as of Aug 5th, my transparent framework thread is no longer available to the public. If you figure it out yourself all the power to you. If you ever use someone elses work in your rom, Please do the XDA right thing and give credit where credit is due. I'm pretty sure you can figure out who it is. I WILL not support losers like this.
I'm grateful everyone has enjoyed my mod enough to run it on their phones and include it in themes/ROMs.
Thank you
Mod:: please move this where appropriate.
Updated with more transparent apps (Play Store, Gmail, Google Now, Contacts, etc)!
Very nice tut. Thanks!!

No you don't have to touch tw-framework at all. Just change the xml edit to true. And make the image under drawable transparent. I tried this on Moon Rom before actually and it came out nice.
Edit: Try paint.net to make it transparent. I never tried adobe
Can you do transparent pattern lock screen?

Hey bro, if you want to just have a background with framework dependent apps then all you need to do is replace, "tw_background_holo_dark." No XML edits needed for that unless you want to go transparent .

Yeah if you want a custom image that's all you gotta replace. This mod was made for transparent purposes but i figured someone would figure out what you figured out in the process!

We don't need shiz like thiz in our forums. You know, Deckoz may not know you did alot of the transparency theming. I mean, it could be a misunderstanding. Have you tried talking to either of them? I really like the rom, and if you had your hand in it, you deserve thanks, and recognition. I have seen problems like this before tear up a whole forum. There is no way I want to get into a he said/ she said thing, and I am sorry this happened. You really shouldn't punish the rest of us low level code tweakers though. I mean, what is done, is done, and pulling your stuff now just hurts us lowly, uneducated people. I am not telling you what to do, just offering a view you prob dont care to see because you are mad. Thanks for having it up, I just wish I would have got to try it myself before it got pulled. Really man, sorry.
