[Q] Maps: Black text on black background - Omni Q&A

I'm having some minor problem with google maps. Some of the text it displays is rendered black with a black background (which is unreadable). See the attached screenshot. Does anyone know how to fix this?
This has been happening on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 WiFi (n8013). I've installed Paranoid Androids Full Stock package. I posted a comment to the gapps thread, and they believed it to be a theme problem. But as I understand it, OmniRom is themeless, correct?
Otherwise, I have to say I am extremely happy with the rom. I had stopped using my tablet because it was slow and laggy with Samsung's stock android. Now it is so much better... Thanks to all the developers!

Changes in Update 3.2

Hey guys,
So I recieved the new 3.2 update today on my US Wifi Galaxy Tab 10.1 and there's a few changes that I have already noticed:
1. Samsumg removed the bouncy effect (similar to the one the was in Apple devices) that was in the browser, settings menu, Android Market, and anything that scrolled and has replaced the effect with the normal Android effect of a blue highlight that gets bigger as you try to scroll more at the end of the page (Possibly has to do with Samsung vs. Apple court case?)
2. Now when you're watching a video on youtbe and using full screen the bottom bar is fully gone and there isn't that random line that was there before !
3. The menu button looks a bit different in the Android Market and Youtube app, almost bolded or popped out (no new Android market btw. It's the same old one so we still don't have access to the music store from the Android Market).
4. Now when you click on a contact icon, when the list of all possible things of contacting them (Google Voice, Google Maps for directions, Gmail, Twitter, etc) shows up entirely and you don't have to scroll left and right).
5. QuickOffice HD seems to have been updated (but not to the newest 5.0 version that is on the Android Market). The icon has also changed and now it says "Pro" and "HD" on it (which is what the Android Market version icon is like)
6. Browser seems a bit faster but I'm not sure about that. And the tablet in general feels overall faster.
Anything else that you guys have noticed? (Besides the button that changes app screen sizes that normally comes with 3.2)
Aboutebug settings changes now seems to stick.
all share is available.
Web browser seems alot snappier. App drawer and pages scroll smoother aswell.
Good morning all!
I'm glad that you got the update on your Tabs. Can I ask you what the better if I fill up its batteries and then update it, or if I plug it in and until filling up I'm updating? Did you notice any problems while updating? Is this update deleted anything from your device? Or everything stayed the same?
There's a little icon next to the clock to turn an app into full screen
This update was for the WIFI version only right?
Allshare is present now
does the screen shout button function can be changed? , like in galaxy tab 7.7 its function can be changed and also the mini apps can be edited or even removed in the 7.7 ?
how is there no updated market YET??
The browser definitely is faster.
Has anyone had issues with home screen auto rotate lag? I updated to 3.2 and it now takes 2 - 3 seconds to rotate. With 3.1 it was almost instantaneous. I also tried the widespread fix by long pressing the home screen and choosing a section other than add widget with no results. This is very frustrating.

Yes, it is especially noticeable when you turn your tab 180 degrees in one motion. ( top becomes bottom)
OK, so I decided to change my wallpaper from a static image to a live wallpaper and the rotation improved immensely. That is so counter-intuitive, but see if you can re-create it.

The Market update comes with Android 3.2.1.
I just noticed that Swipe is present after 3.2 update. Was it present before 3.2?

Yes. It was present in the Touchwiz 3.1 update
Dice player compatibility, anyone? 3.2 wifi user reported diceplayer broke in this ver. I'm on 3.2 3g and it fixed video playback with diceplayer. I was having issues with 3.1 previously.
Id like to add.
Previously on 3.1, 180 degrees rotate will make a 90 + 90 rotation
With 3.2,it fades out and inverts the screen, and fades back in.
Hope this information is useful.
Agreed with all of the above.
However, I get a lot of gapps Force Closes. Can anyone suggest anything besides a full wipe?

[Q] Odd 4.2 Graphical Glitch on Menus/Overlays?

I've noticed since 4.2, any kind of grey popup overlay (such as menus and installing apps) has a weird banding effect either in the middle of the dialog or in the bottom right. Does anyone else have this problem? Was initially worried it was my screen, but I'm able to screenshot it, so I'm guessing it's a software side glitch. I have two imgur links of screenshots illustrating the problem, but can't link it since I haven't hit 10 posts yet.
Yes, I know what you mean. Running Paranoid Android 2.99b2 and M+ kernel a13. I think its an issue with 4.2 though...add it to the growing list.

AT&T Galaxy S4 with GPE Room Graphic Issue

Hey All,
I tried searching this thread before posting this and didn't find too much. I installed a Google play edition ROM on my AT&T S4 (i377). It works fine so far but I've been noticing that there are some green lines through the middle of the screen. They look like graphical glitches. I'm willing to accept it if thats just the name of the game, but just wanted to know if anything could be done, or if another rom that works with this phone is better.
It doesn't seem to come up in screenshots either. Anyway let me know if anyone knows something about this issue.
Thanks

Go to your developer options and check if any drawing/rendering screen options are enabled; some of these options can cause screen flashing/margin lines/rendering line updated/etc. If you have any overclocking enabled in a custom kernel restore your GPU and CPU frequencies back to stock and reboot If neither of those don't fix your issue I suggest using a more stable and well known ROM. I myself use a rom by @Task650. Zero issues with it and it's stability is great, very lightweight.
No glitches here. Must be an issue with the room you are running. I run ibl4st1ds kangabean 4.2.2 ROM with the mf3 radio. I side loaded samsung shealth and downloaded watch on from the market. Many Samsung apps work with a simple sideload with the GE ROMS.

Any Note 4 users out there using Habit-Browser in LP?

Hi,
was wondering if someone else can contribute.
I am using the habit browser on my N4/LP, which I think is (by far) the best web browser available.
But I noticed some really bad screen flickering/redrawing issues while loading a website.
Also happens while loading a webpage in a background tab, the screen flickers like mad until everything is loaded.
Does anyone experience the same with this browser?
I definitely think this wasn't the case in KitKat, but I am not sure. Today is the first time I noticed the bad flickering of the webview

HTC 10 dark (black) dailer after Nougat update?

My HTC 10 received Nougat OTA update a few days ago and everything is great, no problems at all, it feels even faster and smoother. Some users reported problems with wifi, my connection is now much, much better and faster, on my home network AND at work.
There's just one really small detail that drives me crazy. I have dark theme installed and everything IS dark as it was on MM, except phone dailer. Even dailer itself is dark but when calling it goes white and that wasn't the case in MM, that screen was dark too. Any idea?
I reinstalled the theme, tried other themes and it's all the same.
European (Croatia) unlocked, as it is, not rooted.

Dialler uses a different apk now when in a call (InCallUI.apk), so I guess HTC have to update their theme engine you theme this as well.
Of course, if you're running a custom ROM, then you can use a themed InCallUI.

Thank you for your answer. So, I'll have to wait and deal with it.
I mean, I will not root my phone for just that one reason.

Yes, I have the HTC Bolt, which came with 7.0 Nougat outta the box, and changing dialer color doesn't quite work how its supposed to, so I think HTC haven't quite updated it yet as not many of their devices have nougat yet...
If you happen to use the online theme maker of HTC, then you would know the caller background was default as dark.
It could be the nougat update changed the default setting.
What you can do is to go the online theme maker, build a dark one for yourself to see if it works. It could be that the designer just left the setting as default, which is white (bright).
I love bright ones so all the themes I made are forced into bright caller background.
That change came with nougat and, yes, I did make new theme in theme maker and it's all the same - everything is dark as it should be and as it was in MM except that one (InDail) screen. It looks like change have to be made in Theme maker itself...
I have the same problem. Having created a personal theme in Maker Pro, the In Call screen remains as the default, and hasn't changed with my theme. When previewing the theme on the website, the In Call screen shows correctly with my theme, but it doesn't show on the phone (HTC M9 and HTC 10). If anyone has any updates on this, it would be appreciated.
Thank you OP and others-this too was driving me crazy this weekend along with Google Play services not working. I'm a black dialer person and am surprised HTC doesn't have this as an option out of the box. If I find a solution I will share. I joined xda just to post this-hope I did it right ?
same issue
Yeah I'm having the same problem and I use a custom theme I made myself.

To fix Google Play just turn your phone off for 2 to 5mins turn back on and it should work.
