Hi all,
my bottom bar on home screen and on application screens suddenly turned transparent
Dunno, how that happened. I didn't install anything new by the time it has occured. But I'm struggling to find a solution how to turn it back to solid dark-gray color.
Pls help!
thanks in advance.

Sorry mate. It didn't work. Besides the fact it resetted all my icons and home screen to the default state, it hasn't done anything else.
Still has the problem
In one of the settings for the launcher you can choose from various docks.Also transparant. Isn't that he problem.
can you navigate me where exactly can I find these Launcher settings you're mentioning?
thanks.

The defy has 6. And a home page. Im not using two of them how do i remove them? Tmobile was no help. 2nd question is there something that can rotate my screen upside down. ? Thanks for reading
I'm not sure whether you can do it with the stock launcher (though you should be able to) but I know with LauncherPro you can choose the number of homescreens by pressing Menu, then Preferences > Homescreen Settings.
thanks
I gave it a shot it works well. However i just don't like the home icons. I like the ones that came with it. (3) call. The circle thing and contacts is there any way to get them with launcher pro?
Well, you can change the default icons long-pressing on them. Choose the default ones or find some nice icon online and change it
Thanks
i got it looking good.! i would take a screen shot but i havent Rotted. waiting for 2.2. got everything but is any one having issues with the "Messaging App" the one that shows you email and text and gives you a preview. i cant get it to work says problem loading widget? any one know the deal.......press and hold on home screen,widgets,messages then select all messages and click done.

Hi, I am using 2.2 and sometimes my device hangs and reboots itself. When i was in landscape befor then the homescreen is in landscape after auto- reboot. So technically landscape is possible, but how to switch its orientation by yourself is a other question.
Greetings
To make it go to landscape once ur in launcherpro hit the 4 square button then behavior then check auto rotate. U should b good.

No ideas on the weather and utube widgets any one. I checked task killer but there are no apps on" auto close" and preview message box still not workin... if i pay im scares it still wont work. Has any one paid for this app?

ok so, I have installed CyanogenMOD 7.1 on wildfire. n it was running smoothly for 2days, until today.! the MENU task bar was somehow invisible. I had to restart the phone, n it was settled. so, any solution on how can I fix it? another thing is, the android MARKET is not there. how can I solve it.? it would be a pain in the a** if these two problems continued !
Market problem could be you haven't flashed gapps,search around forums for gapps and flashed via hboot like you did cm7.
Disappearing dock or status bars most likely due to swipe to hide settings. Test by swiping up on your screen or down on your screen to see if anything happens,repeat to restore bars again if its working.

1st when I tried, it gave me network error.. now it's done.. many thanx to u.. now please help me with that MENU BAR problem.. I rebooted my phone many time from this morning.! any solution?
What menu bar?
Do you mean the dock at the bottom with the phone, app drawer and browser icon?
Adw has a hidden app drawer which opens when you slide your finger up from the bottom of the screen, you can disable it in the settings.

m talking about the 3 icons in the home screen, the MENU, BROWSER & Phone CALL icon!!
see, http://lh4.ggpht.com/-nwIoW78vZWM/TwAuvDzn6MI/AAAAAAAAAJw/9VQu2PU8kY8/s400/123123123.png ..
that tab 1st showed this problem .. now, the google search bar is also creating problem.. it's not showing up.. If I reboot my phone, everything gets well but for some time
Go to adw settings and disable hidden app drawer or dockbar, I can't remember what its called now.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
it is not enabled .. I have checked just now to be assured.. in the home screen, it's saying, "problem loading widget" .. ! :|
As scratch and myself have said its probably the adw hidden dock setting that is causing the disappearing icons.goto menu,adw settings and look for hidden dock bar and turn it off. I'm not sure of the path because I'm using the new adwex launcher which has removed the hidden dock bar.

Delete the widget and place it again, you've just flashed a newer version of Google search so the path of the widget has changed.

Hi All,
I just installed "Sandvold's ICS BETA" and quiet like it. But would it be possible to rid off the google search bar from the top of the screen ?
Or its a must have suprise from google ?
(I don't think its usefull on each screen, or at all... :S )
Kind regards,
Tom

Either delete GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk in /system/app or check the launcher's settings.

I am back to LeeDroids ROM at the moment but I was using Sanvold's ROM until a few days ago. There is a menu setting for to get rid of the search bar but I can't remember precisely where off the top of my head. The wording is something like "Enable persistent searchbar", if you uncheck this, it will be gone.
When you install the rom, choose in the installer for the nova launcher option. It has the option to disable the searchbar.
Menu -> Nova Settings -> Desktop -> Persistent Search Bar -> Never
It's the same on Apex launcher. I don't know if you can disable it on stock launcher, but the alternatives are also more customisable.
Use Nova and simply remove the bar.
On my Desire wihit ICS beta 0.4.4, I just have to remove it like a widget.
Well since I don't have enough posts it won't let me post in the Dev section...ugh....anyway, I just wiped and flashed MazWoz-EVO ICS ROM BETA 4 and had to do it a few times because it kept screwing up after I would restore my apps and data via Titanium. I figured since this was ICS and my previous was Gingerbread there were some issues so I didn't restore data this last time and thought all was well.
I can't seem to get the browser to work and I tried Chrome Beta but I already read on the forum that is not working right with this ROM so I'll try something different. But I heard the ICS Browser is really good so I want to try it! Someone else posted the same issue but no response yet:
slikgman: My browser stopped working and i don't know when and why. I keep getting the message "unfortunately, browser stopped working" i am now using Dolphin HD browser. I've tried using the reboot and ROM manager permission fix to correct the problem.

Then I just went to unlock the phone a minute ago and my background showed up but no icons and none of the home buttons did anything. I could scroll between all the home screens but they were all blank except for my background! Hmmm...maybe I tried ICS too soon...though people on the Dev forum seem to be having a lot of luck with this ROM
Can't really help, but sounds like a bad install. I've been running this ROM for 2 weeks with no issues other than what is stated in OP.

Can I just re-flash the zip or will it force me to wipe again? I just got some of my main apps up and going so I hate to wipe for the third time in the last 12 hours...lol
Also, do you know how to change the lock screen options? I use Handcent for messaging and want to swap out the standard "slide up" to go to Handcent instead of Messaging. I can't figure out how to edit this for the life of me!
Until you've gotten a good install I would always wipe a couple times per the instructions in the OP.
Also, when changing the lock screen icons there is a trick to it. It's discussed many times over in the OP.
Basically (going from memory since I am not running the rom at the moment) you go to the lockscreen changer, if you want to add weather only you use the rosie utility. Otherwise you have to use the other utility option that is there. You can add/change whatever icons you want by tapping the icon and selecting the replacement. The icons on this screen may not update. Once you close the utility the icons and shortcuts should be as you desire. If you go back in it will reset and you will have to do the process over again.
What recovery are you using?

Oops, i just realized my response was for "The Express..." rom shortcuts. Sorry about that!
So to change lockscreen shortcuts go to Apps -> Evervolv toolbox -> Lockscreen -> Lockscreen style -> Custom Mapping -> App shortcut -> Applications....and so on.

I was gonna say! Thanks that's exactly what I needed!
Oh FYI...I sort of figured out the browser issue. All I had to do was go into my Manage Apps, go to Browser and did a Force Stop, Clear Data, and Clear Cache and then went to try it again and it has worked fine since! Weird....
Also, does anyone know where the Car Dock settings are for ICS? I'd like to change the setting to not go into Car Dock mode when docked, since it leaves the phone lit up the whole time. Some ROMs have that option and some don't, but I'd like to know if ICS has that built in and how I get to it.
Another weird thing about this ROM....
If I long press on the home screen to add an app icon, I get the usual list (Apps, Shortcuts, Widgets and Wallpapers) plus choice for Nova Actions. I can add shortcuts and widgets just fine but when I click Apps, it will show me my list of apps but when I select an app it just opens the app! It doesn't add the icon to my home screen! Annoying even though I can still add it there by long pressing the app itself.

If you hold the recent apps it will bring up an option for system settings, if you go to your settings that way it will show you the settings in tab form.
Yes that settings go to the rigt one.. But if i click shortcut or in app driver settings gies to list one

Hi! This is because LG actually put in 2 different settings apps, one in tab view and the other in list view. You can see this when you change the view for settings in the upper right conrner of the settings app and then look at your recent apps. The thing is that nova launcher, and also a lot of other launchers (Google Now Laucher for example), only have the listed-view settings app in their app drawer. You can get to the tabbed view, as mentioned above, by holding your recents button and selecting settings from there or you can hit the settings button in the upper right corner of your notification pull down tray..
Ohh so thats why...thank you

I just noticed that when using noval launcher ,theres a slight delay after pressing apps like messaging , phone, gallery to launch. After trying back stock launcher, they kind off open instantly. Anyone experience that too ?
Yes i noticed too.
sent from me. :]
This'll help
I whipped this up in tasker. It'll make a shortcut (available in app drawer) to get to the tabbed settings... First run is a little slow to load. You can put it wherever you want (folder, desktop etc)
This helped me alot. I have the LG G Stylo/Rooted/Nova Prime. Setup is great and I keep it with a stock look.
