Hey guys.
I didn't know where else to put this thread so I thought I'd ask it here.
I just installed the latest Paranoid to give it a test run. I've been running CM for a few weeks and I've absolutely loved it. While fiddling around in Paranoid, I noticed that I couldn't change the lockscreen wallpaper. Is that normal or is something missing from my ROM? I couldn't seem to find any answers in the internet (poor google has failed me! )
Kind Regards

Hi,
There is a package in Spike's thread for v5.0 for the battery percentage. My question is, can that be installed on v6.1?

v6 is a different base. So maybe wait for him to come out with one for v6 first. Should be any day now.

Thanks for the answer...
btw i have a little more questions...
after using v6.1... i realise that i am no longer able to take screenshots on my sgs2. the home + power button does not seem to work. is there a different way on this rom to take screenshots? or need another app?
also is there a way to remove homescreens? by default it has 5 screens, can i disable one or more of it?
last question, how do i configure to set the USB connect on default as usb storage instead of media server?
UPDATE: seems like the battery percentage for 6.1 is released: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22790151&postcount=492

I really missed the days i can take a screenshot just with home + power buttons .Now i'm using a app to take screedshots(do a search in the market then you'll find many). Hope the CM9 team intergrate Screenshots in their work.
Are you using Trebuchet launcher ? If so you'll find the homescreed settings in Trebucher settings(press menu key in homescreen and select Trebucher settings) .
The media server is annoying to me too but now i'm trying to get used to it.Maybe you can try this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389375

thanks to your reply i now know about trebuchet. now that helps me to reduce those unused homescreens. but some of the options does not work such as Dock and Icons. Ill have to start googling about this anyways...
but yeah i hope spike will add the screenshot. i dont want an app for that. better to intergrate it with the rom i think.
SPIKE, if you see this, i sincerely thank you for this awesome ROM. you have done great. I am loving every bit of it. thank you!
Guys,
I was reading the development thread, and now there is a 6.1 version. Somebody said that he updated from ROM 2.3.6 to Pure ICS 6.0...
I would like to be sure if this can really be done without having to install stock ROM first or something like that. I have stock ROM 2.3.5 with root, and I would like to know whether I can go straight to flashing Pure ICS 6.1 with Odin or not.
I am asking cause I have seen many different comments on approaches people have followed, and I want to know whether I can do this first or not.
Thanks!
The trebuchet is far from complete and still under development(pretty stable for a alpha release ,though). You can have a try at Nova launcher and see if it fits you.

I suggest you flash a sammy leak ICS ROM first , it won't take you so much time.

There should not be any issues. I flashed straight to 6.1 from a stock official release of 2.3.6. worked fine for me. did not have issues. just make sure to follow the steps provided carefully.

update: if yes, then below link probably will be helpful?

I just flashed Pure Special Edition straight from one of the KI or KJs, everything works ok (Great rom btw) but I noticed the colors are slightly off. Almost like overexposure?
The color looks slightly faded and runny in and is quite obvious in videos and games. Wonder what's the issue here? should I reflash?
Cheers
Check Display - Screen Mode to see what it is set as. It is in Settings. You can make or more punchy there.

Screen Mode was set to Standard, and setting it to anything else make it look worse... However, the screen did look slightly better once I turned off auto brightness and adjusted it manually. Totally forgot that ICS had a problem with this!
However, I noticed that stuff like font edges isn't as sharp as when I was running stock. I guess I'll flash stock ICS tonight to check what the problem is...
pure ics 5.0 vs 7.1 battery life.
Hello. Why is my battery life 100% better with Pure ICS v. 5.0 than 7.1? is there a way to make 7.1 as great (im my opinion) in terms of battery life as 5.0? of course 7.1 is fully functional and I would like to keep it.
Thanks.
Transparent lockscreen
Hi all,
Does anyone know if spike is planning to get rid of the samsung lockscreen?
It would be so much nicer to have the stock transparent lockscreen as on the galaxy nexus.
Hopefully it will come round with 7.3.
For those who want to install AOSP Calendar in Spike 7.2, maybe can try flash AOSP Package for Pure ICS v7.0
ICS call screen
I wanted to know if there are plans to incorporate the in call screen from ICS into this ROM? I switched from CM9 to Pure ICS and so far it's the only thing about CM9 that I prefer.
You can ignore my above post, apparently this is a future theme change. Looking forward to when it actually gets implemented.
Hello.
I am trying to find a way to add more things into the AOSP lockscreen. I've spent hours searching for a post to help to no avail. I have seen a lot of roms with more options than just the camera and unlock options but I'm just not feeling the roms themselves. If anyone could help direct me to a post I'm overlooking or help guide me on how to accomplish this it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Or you could wait for 4.2 to release with lock screen widgets...

Very first post so I let it go this time.
1. If you know which ROM you are currently running, do post in that ROM's thread.
2. If you know which ROM you are currently running, do tell us (specifically which ROM), so we might help. Not all ROMs are the same.
3. If you don't know which ROM you are currently running, get to know it.
oops
Sorry about that votinh. I was trying a few different ones so i didn't put the rom in there. I've finally settled on:
XWLPY-SHOstock2 v6.0
Thank you.
Thats not AOSP.
I dont think you can do jack to touchjizz lockscreen.

There is an option for AOSP lock screen on Shostock but I don't think you can add more targets. To the OP, AOKP has those options if it means that much to u

Hey guys, i've got a question. I currently have my phone running MiniCM7, the latest version, with Chris95X8 Xperia S theme, which by the way is great, but there's a problem with the alarm. When I launch the app, I can't see the time each alarm is set. I've tried it with gingerdx, and it's ok, and minicm7 without the theme, is also ok, but both together doesn't work. It's a detail actually, nothing important, so before asking, i tried by myself to fix it, decompiled the theme, rom's framework-res and systemui, but i don't know exaclty where to look for or what to change, since i don't know where the issue is.
I hope you guys can help me! Thanks!
I just found the fix, in this thread:

You're doing everything right but I just want threads to be clean so next time if you post a question, you better post it in Q & A and Troubleshooting Section. So everyone could see you and answer you so quick
As I am kinda new to posting here, I cant ask there so must relate my question in this Q&A forum:
Does anyone know please, what is the first pic in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1569686 ? I am not sure if it is lockscreen or something like that, but looks so cool and I would like to know if it is in NeatROM included, or is it a mod or? Thank you for replies
I haven't flashed any mods like that but i think this should be what you're looking for

It's a custom homescreen, made using a custom wallpaper, UCCW widgets and some other stuff. You can find similar homescreen themes (and maybe that one too), along with instructions, here:
http://mycolorscreen.com/
The exact thing its called is mnml blue (if memory serves me correctly). Search on YouTube, there's video tutorials on how to make it. You can have a look in the last week or so of NeatROM thread, there was a guy who was doing it for himself just a few days ago on there.

Hey everybody. I'm on Temesak's cm11 builds, and I have a question regarding the app and widget draw behavior. I'm assuming it's a KK thing though, not something to do with the builds.
Every time I open the app or widget draw it opens at the beginning of the draw (the A's). I was wondering if there is a way to have it remember the last page you were on? It's annoying when adding, say a few contact widgets having to scroll back there from the start each time. Same with the apps. Is there a workaround for this? I know, serious world problems eh! Just thought I'd ask.

Thats an unofficial build by Temesak, and also the official cyanogenomd 11 is work in progress and there are still lots of things to be corrected and lots of features to be added yet, the builds that Temesak is building is unofficial which he has build from cyanogenmod 11 source codes by adding his own twiks and features, so it would be best to ask him about this in his Cyanogenmod 11 thread.. maybe he can solve this problem by himself.. And also keep calm, be happy that you rae able to run the android kk which is not yet official from any place to SGS3. all this tings will be solved and missing features will take time to be fixed..
Thanks for the reply. I didn't want to bug him if it was just standard kk behaviour. I'll ask over there.

Even if its a standard kk behavior, cyanogenmod will surely make that one working.. without that the UI will be tasteless.. but i don't think its a kk behavior..
Google launcher don't have them settings. Probably won't
