See the darker title area ? What do you all think of this mod ? It's very flexible... we can even redraw the white rectangle that moves around to... something entirely different.
looks good. And since there are two images (one inactive, one active) for that white rectangle that opens even a little bit more creativity.
Did you replace the white rectangle graphic or add another layer on top of it ? (I don't even know if that's possible, I never played that much with Chome except to build my own laucher panel, only to see after you already did it )

When i choose a picture as a wallpaper, it onli appears in the middle of the screen. It doesnt appear on the top bar (the start menu area) or the bottom bar (near softkeys).
what i wanna do is make the picture fit the entire screen, or at least make the bars opaque-ish so i can see the picture. I think the pictures will look much much better that way. Is there any way to do this?

You can only do this with pictures sized 240x320, use photo shop or similar to resize smaller pics, or simpler way use the phone (if camera picture) held normally instead of the usual "Camera style" way taking pics vertically also make sure camera is on 2M setting (in cam view, three small setting boxes in centre/top, the middle box change to 2M)
Finally i dont think you can change taskbars to transparent/opaque unless you use theming software like wisbar. Correct me if i'm wrong others, as i am looking to change taskbar myself to opaque.
Hope this helps
1. I have locked my secure element through the Google Wallet stuff.
2. There is a dark spot on my screen, it's hardly unless it's behind a light, solid color background, but this little circle on the screen is still.... there. The attached image is a picture of it. It's not too clear in the picture, but it's very noticeable when browsing the web or facebook and such. it's that little darker patch in the direct center of that circle, it's perfectly in-between lines.
Should I go with the hassle of swapping it for a new one?
Hello!
I recently got the Arc S and I love it, but there's something about the screen that freaks me out. It's hard to describe, but let me try.
When I scroll through menus, objects get darker while they move. Most notibly when there's white text on black background. I don't know many of you know it, but it's like applying the "inner shadow" filter to the fonts in photoshop.
I made a video to demonstrate that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVRTmsr6Ppg
Hopefully you can see the effect on the text, but it's very noticable that the lines between the items disappear while scrolling.
While on a grey background, text appears yellowish while scrolling.
I get a similar effect when I scroll through pictures.
Other than that, the screen is perfectly fine. I have a Neo V here with the same rom and kernel and there is nothing like that.
Or is this just normal screen behaviour I have to get used to?
What rom are you on?
Sent from my LT15i using birds.
if you look clearly at the screen, it is not getting darker! just the lines between the selectable touch fields are getting darker. dont know why but this problem is on all roms i have tested. it happens at small text and very small lines (1-2 pixel lines i think)
@TheHaso
Super Jelly Bean, Slim Bean, Ultimate HD.. It doesn't seem to matter.
@om22
So you think this is a software issue?
I noticed when I scroll through small turqoise text, it clearly gets darker and shifts into a more blue-ish tone.

no i think this is normal on tn-panel lcd screens (our arc/s). just a dark blurring effect i think.
If you want to get some information about TN displays vs IPS etc just follow the link:

it's normal. only the lines get darker and not the text. this is how android makes it. try to increase the brightness and you will see that the lines gets a little darker.
But this effect does not happen at all on the Neo V.
And of course the text is getting darker, too. As I said, on black background a turquoise text shifts to blue while scrolling.

maybe because the neo v has built in another display? Our display also is very blurry in my opinion (high response time)
So i just picked up a G3 today and there's one thing that is bothering me.
All the outlines of icons / text seem to have a minuscule but detectable contrasting outline around them. It's hard to describe and kind of nitpicking, but my eyes do see it especially with text overlayed on a color or image background. It's almost like a tiny oversharpening effect and I've never seen it on other phones before. What is this? Is it due the layout of the subpixels? Also I noticed the color balance is somewhat yellowish. Is there a way to fix these problems? perhaps through custom roms? Would scaling down the resolution to 1080p make a difference.
Detailed example: I put my new G3 and Asus zenfone 2 side by side, and looked at their chrome icons (the exact same icons) through a magnifying glass. On the zenfone's display the line separating green and red in the icon transitions smoothly and normally- from green to red. But sure enough, on the G3, the magnifying glass reveals a tiny whitish line between the green and red areas! Therefore the change in color does not transition smoothly, which is what my eyes are picking up on. How to fix this problem?
If this is just inherent to the display itself I may consider picking up a Oneplus X instead, as it is somewhat irritating for my eyes especially when reading text.
This phone has a problem with oversharpening most custom roms have it fixed a lot of people complained about it u can reduce screen to 1080 but then u take away from the beuty of the screen if u decide to keep it root it then use a cust rom and itll be all good
If u have custom recovery then u can flash oversharpning fix mod.

So ever since I have had my 6 pro I notice that when I have a black wallpaper or a dark colour set the top last maybe centimetre from across the top of the display washes out/ fades out Into grey and I have noticed that changing between different colour profiles either makes it less apparent or more worse. I'd like to think it's software as I don't think it's doing it anywhere else but the home screen but I could be wrong.
I think this is a thing to show the QS panel, we had a bug on the betas where there was a line up at the top of the screen to show it too. IIRC that one occurred only on lockscreen though.
That's actually part of the pixel launcher. I hate it with a passion. My mod, which is available now, removes it by default. If you are not rooted you have to use a 3rd party launcher. If you are rooted but don't want to use my mod you can edit the image. Its called workspace_bg.9.png.
