OK, I have a dell streak 5 and upgrading to a 7, during the 2 weeks i have to wait i've had a bet with a tab owner that if i use his tab for 2 weeks i will not want to hand it back when my streak 7 arrives
First that i noticed when looking properly is the strange colored icons of the tab, the phone icon i bright green, the music player is pink and the settings icon can only be described as 'in your face blue', also installed adw launcher ex so made the icons a bit smaller, wondered if any other owners have changed their icons in photoshop or with new ones
Changed them in photoshop, lot's better
There's a 'nexus s live wallpaper' on the market, looks awesome on tab

Having used Manilla2d for a few weeks now I have decided I like it and would like to make the rest of my WM6 look the same. So I have a few questions.
1. Is there a tsk for the flat blue o2 xda ignito, or a way to make a flat black tsk have a blue highlight color. Or any way to make flat colored themes at all. I have used some of the the theme editors, but have not been able to get flat colors to work for the taskbar and the softkey bar. This is probably due to my own incompetence. Currently I am using UI tweaker, but I would like to minimize the number of programs I am using since M2d takes up so much space.
2. Can the opal task manager that comes with manilla2d be skinned? If so, since I have no idea how to do it, is it possible to have the background be the manilla2d blue background, with a blue highlight color?
3. I am also using the opal comm manager. The one with the white background with blue slider bars. I am being anal now, but I was wondering if you can change the text under the slider bars from ON OFF to On Off. This has been bothering me.
4. Can the full screen player have a green or blue progress bar rather than a red one?
I will include the versions I am using. Thanks for sticking with me, I am getting pretty ridiculous.
Thanks

I installed this one, but would like now to deinstall it, but somehow this is not possible

Thank you so much, that annoyed the heck out me as well
Hi,
Just want to say THANK YOU to INVADE for his hard work on this...WELL DONE...awsome JOB !.
My issue which i have with my phone and assuming it is with branded phones is the following:
I have a Vodafone UK Branded phone and my issue is that the Clock background is white...good thing, however the numbers are in red (HTC is black)...the calender has the day higlighted in red (HTC is green)
The "alarm off" under the clock on the right hand side is a dark grey...could this be lighter ?? or even turned white ?
Call History and Calendar which are white turn black once you click on them...can this stay white ?
Text messages are black > can this turn white ?
Mail - When you select the account on the top right of the screen the background is red with black text....can this be black with white text like the default HTC colors and fonts ?
Internet page under the world- Can the text on there turn white ?
Calendar - can this be like the default HTC style ?
Music - Can the Text on this screen be all white ? cant see what track I have on
Weather - can all the text be white, again cant see the temps and the days.
Settings - Can the main text like Wallpaper ETC be white and the information below in small pront be a realy light color like...near white but sill grey.
People - Name of person is black, can that be white, and the telephone number is a light Grey ?? can see the number...
Call History - heading is in black...can that be white like all the other tabs ?
Does anyone else have the same issue as me ?
Will this work on my Xperia ? OS WM 6.1 .

Exactly what I was looking for! However on my Telus CDMA TP2 the little green alien never appears.. so I guess the .gif doesn't animate on the TP2. Anyone have a workaround?
Is it just me or 2.2 icon spacing is terrible? Just updated to 2.2 from 1.6 and now I am faced with a row of empty coloum that I can not fit any more icons into.
Not sure what to do? please help?
It is like no matter what I do in dragging the icons across the screen to fill this gap, upon releasing my finger it goes back down in to the vertical coloum of icons.
What I should expect it to do like in 1.6 is to just start filling that big empty huge gap that can easily fit a standard application icons.
BUT NOT THE CASE OF 2.2? what all the hype is this about?
if you want more icons on your screen, you need to use an alternative launcher like launcherpro. i actually jumped ship today and installed it. i found the stage widgets to be a bit of a let down so i was ok with loosing them, and i was worried i wouldnt like launcherpro because i had it before on an old phone and didnt like it, and i didnt like it on my streak till i found the setting that says "auto-fit items: resizes widgets and icons to fit the grid size". its nice, i like it.

It had to be that way to fit in both landscape and portrate, even if you use another launcher and use more icons for portrate eg: 7 rows x 6 columns when to turn to landscape the 7 rows are all to squashed.
It's the same with wallpapers, what fits in portrate doesn't fit in landscape.
It's what you get with a widscreen smartphone.
Hi there I got the Samsung Galaxy s4 after making the jump from the S2 and im really happy with it. There something annoying me though, as a wallpaper junkie. The S4 has a bunch of original HD wallpapers, which are quite frankly beautiful. The great thing about them is they take up the entire screen, they make the upper notification bar see trough which means you get more screen, more color, more happyness.
However there are only a limited amount of build in original wallpapers and for a wallpaper addict like me they start to bore quickly no matter how beautiful they are . The problem however is that if i use another picture from my phone or a hd wallpaper from one of the many apps i have the upper bar becomes black instead of see trough.
So my question basically is, is there a way to make the upper bar see trough for all wallpapers? Or are there additional wallpapers we can download somewhere from samsung that remove the upper bar? Or is there another app for HD wallpapers that does remove the upper black status bar?
Hope anyone could give me an answer to that.
In the latest beta of Nova launcher there is an option to make the status bar transparent.
i updated to android 8.0 today and the first thing i noticed after reboot is that some of my icons have white boxes around them. so i thought i would just change the icons to fix it. that did not work some of the icons did change but the white boxes remain. i then thought it was time for a theme change so i went and found a springy like puppy theme to use. that went badly also. None of the icons on the screen are from the new theme. in the screenie provided the green arrow shows the white box and the one icon that changed. the red arrow is the original themes icon set. the blue icon is the original theme icon with the white box around it. i have tried changing wallpapers and icons and themes but the icons do not change anymore.

Try to apply the theme again
And in settings there is an option to turn off icon backgrounds.

that did not work
only the home screen being affected made me thing.i had forgotten that i had installed the pixel 2 launcher in android 7. i went and turned it off and went back to defaults it all is working. so i uninstalled it and re downloaded it and reinstalled and it is working so it looks like the app did not like the upgrade.
looks like the theme hasn't been updated to make it compatible with Oreo.
it isn't the theme that has the issue as i tried 5-6 themes all having the same issue. it was the pixel launcher did not like being installed in android 7 then upgraded to 8. once i uninstalled the launcher and then reinstalled it all is working as expected.
i thought only i had that problem i use apex launcher on note 8 and after i apply theme or icon pack it is not changing
I just use the "vanilla" Samsung launcher, and I have this issue, even with a setting reset. I really don't want to do a factory.
I am having same issue but I have no launcher installed. Just using it theme. What I found is that the setting under
Settings - - > display - - > frame icons
is on and grayed out. Can't figure out how to ungray it

Are you using an other launcher then the original one ? That could be the problem.

It looks like Oreo has brought new feature called Adaptive Icons.
Apparently until developers would have enabled their stuff to support it you still be watching white area surrounding the legacy icons.
This is why I've switched to Nova, but unfortunately loosing numeric notification badges
