Hey all, I wanted to know if any of you know what happened or how to fix the blank grey tiles in the screenshot. All of the apps that are grey had icons previously.
It won't let me link the ss but its necessary here. I at least made it so you can copy the latter half easily.

I did recently go through ALL of the settings on the phone, so maybe I hit something I shouldn't have?

is there any way to remove the clock from the notification bar? if your have something like beautiful widgets running it looks almost stupid having 2 clocks there. or at least have the option in settings to keep the clock or remove the clock?
i can understand the other aspect of when your in applications people would like to see the time in the notification area. but i just wana see if i miss it or not.
i gave it a quick google, and most of the responses were fairly old and for different handsets. just wondering if it is possible?
im running SuperE 1.0.1 on a 32A, cheers!
something to try.
check your spareparts app (mine is ver. 2.1_update1) it has user UI tweak at the bottom.
Clock can be set to hidden. (may not work)
while your are there, make the clock color to match your status bar. In case the hide clock part didn't work. (try transparent as well)
yeah in cyanogen's latest rom he includes a modded spareparts app that lets you control this. maybe you can rip it out of his rom and put it into yours if your version isnt the same. maybe can you download it from the market as well, not sure if that version is up to date.
thanks buddy! had no idea i should even look in there =)
the hide clock option doesnt work for some reason, even after rebooting. but changing the transparency to nothing hides it.
only thing is now it leaves an ugly gap where the clock used to be lol. i need to try find a way to remove it completely!

I tried hiding mine as well one day (a week ago maybe?), and it didn't work. Then yesterday I noticed, out of the blue, there was no clock in the notification bar. LoL So it did remove it, eventually.
it works just fine you'll just have to reboot a couple times
rightly so! i was wrong before, it does work. like losinc said u just need to reboot a couple of times. the changing of colour of the clock works too. just took a few times to get it right =)
thanks for ur help guys!
i had problems changing colors in cm 5.0.7 so i updated to 5.0.8t1 and it worked at once
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
After a successful update OTA 3 to ICS, I still have an ugly icon launcher. It seems to be not working, it does not do anything, how do I get rid of the icon?
Another thing is ugly battery icon, exchanged by Lenovo. Is there a classic icon of the ICS?
try a custome launcher from the market and change the full look of the screen

I don't think you can hide the launcher icon in ICS, and it's not removable - lots of folks have tried.
No idea, yet, about the battery icon.
You can modify the SystemUI.apk and replace the icons with different ones. I did it in Honeycomb because of Lenovo's super-white icons and I never had issues. You cannot remove the favorite's wheel icon, but you can replace it with an icon that is practically not visible on the status bar. I would have already replaced both icons, battery and favorite's wheel but without CWR or even adb access within recovery I'm a little scared to mess with my system with no backup.
So there you have it. It is possible with root, but without an option to restore if something goes wrong it is risky.
Great info, obscure. Hadn't heard this before.
Icon Problem,
iv tried rebooting it and tht doesnt fix it ,this icon problem only happens when more than 1 icon is linked to another :/
Apps i installed recently are:
.androids! live wallpaper
.blue skies free live wallpaper
.nexus revamped live wallpaper
.stickmount
.touchpal keyboard
.bsplayer
i also noticed something strange in my installed apps which i never actually installed and there is no uninstall option
Iv attached 3 screenshots, thanks in advance guys, its driving me mad, is there a custom rom which is exactly the same as stock jellybean but trimmed of all the rubbish :good:
I'm not really sure what your question is. The icons you see are exactly what everyone sees if you put 2 or more icons in a folder. If you don't want icons in folders, touch the folder, drag each icon out of the folder and long-press the empty folder to delete it. You can also name the folder if you want to keep it with a description. The Korean keyboard icons come with the OS as system apps. Don't worry about them.

Agreed, I fail to see a problem here.
strange
so having a small black circle appear when 2 icons are linked together is normal, that's ridiculous, it would look miles better without the black circle it just doesn't look right, here is a better screenshot to show you what i mean - those black circles were not there yesterday i can assure you that.
what is the point of having a black circle when it just does not need to be there, am i going mad lol

It's called a folder! It's always been like that... And if you don't like it, use a custom launcher that allows you to change it. Check out mine using Apex launcher:

Hello! some times when I push the center hardware button the touchwiz is empty from icons than in 1/2 second all icons appear again.
how do i know wich is the problem?
I am stock non rooted xxuamdm.
no special app (i mean i don't think so...)
just whatsapp plus, 2 or the folders, the stock application active widget,
statusvolume plus
notification toggles
i think all the rest is "normal"
thanks
I just updated my N7 to the new KitKat, the status bar and soft keys only become transparent in Google experience launcher home screen (need to install GEL mannually), but within the app it is still two black bars. As nexus 7's screen real state constantly blocked by these two bars (terrible in landscape mode especially), I was wondering if there is a mod (e.g. mod the systemUI) to make both bars transparent.
This is certainly achievable as I have seen Samsung tabs all have transparent status bar out of box, and in 4.3 there was CyanogenMod that made it transparent, but there is nothing like these for KitKat
I prefer this solution other than hidding the softkey bars (such as GMD) because i don't want to change GEL, and I know in the future , new apps will be able to leverage the new immerse fullscreen so this problem is completely solved, i don't want to affect that function, but in the same time, i want old apps still able to use more screen real states.
please let me know if there is a solution to make this possible.
Thanks everyone!
Any one has figured this out?

Thanks, but Google experience launcher only provide transparent status bar and softkeys on homescreen, not inside app
to make it work inside an app, need to deeply mod the system UI file, in 4.2 CM10.2 has done it before successfully!
