[Q] Wallpaper Problem. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-i9300 and running Paranoid Android ROM v 2.15.
My question is why am I getting these grayish black lines at the top and bottom and how can I remove them??
And one more thing, I don't get these lines on my lock screen so It's definitely not a screen problem.
p.s. The wallpaper is pure white.

Hi! That's just how it is it's somewhat like a default thing
Unless you are on some 3rd party.launcher

If you're using Nova or Apex go to settings > dock > untick "show shadow"

Thank you, the nova launcher setting worked.
But I wanted a fix for the the paranoid android native launcher (which doesn't have a fix as stated).
Can anyone tell the dev's to create a solution for it :/

[Q] Wierd problem on miui nb

I can't ask on the official thread because I'm a new member.
When im using some apps (like youtube and root explorer for example) the background of the app is white and the font color is also white so I can't see the words, but when I put my finger on a title the words become dark and clear.
Youtube is a very usefull app and this is very annoying.
Has somebody noticed this problem and know what to do?
Thanks in advance. =]
Go into manage applications under settings, find your app, turn on compatibility mode

Thank you for the answer
It didn't work.
Any other suggestions?
Some roms the developer didnt notice issues like this and you have to wait for an update.

App Request TW Launcher for AOKP

Is it possible for someone to make a modified version of the TW launcher that will work with AOKP? I'd just like the app drawer icon to be the ICS circle with dots. I found the link below in searching, but it has the default home page set to 1 with no option to change it, and the app drawer icon isn't themed. I'm using it for now though, because i have no idea how i could change it. Anyone who wants to use this one without having it modded go ahead. Lol Thanks in advance to anyone who can do it or any advice!

Isn't the whole point if aokp/aosp roms to get away from touchwiz? Why not just flash stock?

You can change the app drawer icon in Nova (and Apex, I think) - you can probably make them look mostly like Touchwiz if you want.

Uhhh maybe look like 3 or 4 posts below yours? It couldnt have been that hard to miss the "Galaxy S3 Launcher" in the thread title could it?
You have to take up customizing the App Drawer button with Samsung though.

Can't he just replace the icon graphic in the launcher apk?
I know that won't center it but it's a start.

Surely it couldn't have been too hard to see that I posted this months ago before the gs3 was even officially announced? Don't sit there and act like I'm an idiot when this thread is old news. Bravo.

Go Luncher Question

Hi
Is there any Theme that would Change the Touchwiz to 5.0 or Samsung Galaxy S3 Theme?
If those 2 do not exist Can you please tell me what are good Theme's for Go Luncher App...
Thanks....
Thread makes me hungry.
(sorry, couldn't resist)
Anyway, I suspect you want the "Themes and Apps" subforum, not "General".

Go launcher delivers, you can't go wrong. You might like the cube theme it makes the icons stand out, they seem to float on a darker background. The effect is functional and cool. It also has great page transitions to chose from.
I've been a go launcher fan since i left ics on my beloved captivate. It is extremely configurable.

Galaxy F1 (on i777) Home screen config

Can't seem to find anything about this anywhere in the forums, which makes me hopeful that this is a super simple question. I installed Faryaab's F1 GalaxyNexus ROM on my i777. It is a pretty great ROM for my needs but I do have one small issue that I con't seem to dig up a resolution for.
I cannot seem to find any way to do what would have been the home screen "edit" function in GB. When I hit my settings button in the F1 GalaxyNexus home screen, I get only options for wallpaper, manage apps, & system settings. From what I remember from using a galaxy nexus the the ICS softkey menu button should contain those options + the option to configure the home screens.
Am I missing something obvious or if having 2 extra screens is just the way I will have to roll with this ROM.
Thanks in advance for taking the time to read and respond to my (probably dumb) question.

Hmm, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond but this has left me scratching my head. Risking a complete noob questions here; how does one access the launcher settings in the Ice Cream Sandwich Launcher as implemented in the F1 GalaxyNexus ROM?
Thanks Again

You must be using a launcher that doesn't have settings like that try using nova or apex

Nice one, I just found a site that is peddling flash-able fixes to the ICS default manager to remove the search bar and offer some other teaks, including changing the # of screens. Looks like this was indeed a stupid question.
THANKS NICK!!

Rom Challenge

Does anyone know of an rooted S2 ROM that is pretty much stock Samsung ICS 4.03 that gives me 5 horizontal icons on home screen and 5 x 5 in the apps drawer.
Alternatively any way to achieve this this with an existing rooted ROM?
Don't want to do it through an alternative launcher as I am happy with TW.
Thanks in advance.

TW wont do that out of the box.
Look into TW 4.5 - not sure if it'll work on ICS, but I used it on GB and it allowed you to change the grid size IIRC.
Oh and it's a launcher thing, not a ROM thing.
Otherwise, find other launcher i guess...
Use apex launcher
On home screen touch the menu key
Go apex settings > home screen settings > portrait grid
Change to 5x5 or whatever u want

Thanks for that I have TW4.5 on my current ROM which is running 4.0.3 and have had on previous ROM's but this is the first time I have seen 5 horizontal icons on the home page, had never seen it as an option either.
I will investigate some more as I don't really want to use another launcher.
It's not even funny to post "Rom Challenge " in android development section.
That's my mistake I will withdraw the post. Thanks.

And I will lock this. Don't be lazy and search and read the rom threads. Also (I just noticed after I posted lolz) post in the correct sections....
