Cubed notification area - CM10 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Not sure if this is the correct forum to post this in, but I'll give it a shot.
I have CyanogenMod 10 nightly and run Cubed (aka 3 on the market), and when I look at the notification area every other item in the list is fine, but cubed's notification is covered in what seems to be a grey overlay, as seen in the screenshot.
Does anyone know how you go about fixing this? Is it a theme problem, CM10 problem or the application itself?

First, change to another theme. If that fixes it, or even changes the color from gray to something else, its an AOSP theme issue, thus the rom.
If it doesn't, then the app has the images itself, and is using those instead of framework images.

Launcher Pro Custom Icons

Just thought I would ask. I have contacted the developer as well.
I am using the latest Launcher Pro + and when I change the icons for my launch bar they don't seem to always stick. They seem to revert back to the stock icons instead of the updated .png files I have assigned it.
It happens randomly. Is it something I am doing incorrectly? Or is this a glitch?
Thanks for any comments in regards to this.
There is some talk about this over at the forum: http://launcherpro.com/forum I believe if you make it a blank link first, then put a regular icon link after, it kinda resets it and sticks. Head over there to verify...

Dude holy crap. I downloaded it today (I had a couple of times before, always crawled back to sense) and I had this exact problem. After a little while of being pissed and just re-applying, I found a solution, kinda like post 2 I guess. I just clicked on the slot, chose the same activity, and when it asked to choose an icon, THEN I picked the custom one. That worked
Thanks for the replies. I have tried that method as well. Two of the icons stick but like the center application icon reverts back first then the others follow. I will read more on the posted link. Thanks for some input. I am sure it will resolved. I like Sense but with custom icons and setting to bar to highlight froyowide I am enjoying it more and more. Please update anything you might find and vice versa.
Thanks

[Q] Sense 2.5 Clock Background and Taskbar Color

I've got to ask the dumbest question ever, but I've looked through all my settings and cannot figure it out. How do I change the background color of the clock and the task bar from the blue it is now (see attached) to black like the calender is? Sorry, but I just can't find the setting. Any help is appreciated!
I do have the new AT&T ROM with co0kie's Home Tab.

haven't heard of anyone doing that yet...with our settings...sounds like you would need a CAB to change those. I know there are some for the task bar that I have seen floating around.
Where did you get the ROM? ---> i just got the new official Rom
Is that the official leaked one?
Did you have to flash to install?
What's the Cookie's home tab?
Thanks

It's the official ROM off the HTC website. I've seen so many screens of the HTC Tilt 2 with the colors I want, I'm guessing that they may have been cooked ROMs. The Co0kie's Home Tab is the editor that allows for tons of customization of the home screen and options, it's great. Thanks for the reply and if you find out anything on how to change the colors, please let me know.
I Found It!!!

You can change the home tabs and a lot of the other Icons!
I used these when I had TouchFlo3D on the original ROM, to add the sense, colored slider: Touch pro ones are here: http://tp2.bfgreenberg.com/tf3d.htm
The ones for us on the new Rom is the first link, for sense ui stuff.
Where did you get the Cookies Home Tab?
Thanks
Just Tried the Icon Package for this one, they look great! No more Black and white look!
Will try the slider bar next
I found a few more, that I am about to try, here's the link where I found them:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529576&page=91
Couldn't get this Transparent Slider to Work...haven't tried the clock or curtains...
Noticed you don't have a Task Manager in your Task Bar at the Top Too.
This one is Great! Same thing we had in the Original Rom
Now we just need something to change the icons in Task Bar...add something with color!
This one will let us design our own slider with our icons of our choosing and set all the wallpapers to be the same...haven't tried this guy yet...but this looks better, just a little more work than just the transparent slider.

You can go here http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-co0kies-home-tab.html and find Co0kie's Home Tab, works great for me. I'm going to check those links you posted and will get back to you on how they work. Thanks for the updates, too. I'll definitely need the Dutty's Task Manager. I already downloaded it, just haven't put it on my phone yet.

Thank You! I added this, happy to get some more quick link tabs!
I added the Icon Package and the Glass slider.
When I tried the Transparencies for the Quick Links...I tried versions C, BUT it caused the images for "Quick Link Contacts" to Disappear ... so i took it off, I haven't tried version A or B yet.
There are some glitches when uninstalling the Glass slider, since it is slightly to the right, you stalk slider becomes slightly to the right when you uninstall the Glass one.
Screen Shots show the Icon package...gives color to everything. Plus, in the 6th picture you can see what I mean by the slider being slightly to the right after uninstalling the Glass slider....a little annoying...will probably put the glass one back, I was just playing with different things, untill i have time to try HDWalls app...which looks a little more complicated.
Ok, Added the Transparent Slider Back in, and the App to remove the Blue background behind the clock.
First Pick is w/the Blue back ground and the others without it.
Slider is slightly too the right in All People and some of the other things, but not bad enough to cause any real issues.
I Installed the Transparent Quick Icons Version B, and it did the same exact thing as Version C, but keeps the icon Images for Contacts in Quick links, so issue solved.
Here are some shots to give you an idea.
Looks Great!
Wow, those look really good, Strange Shadow. I think I'm at the point where I've kinda got things where I want them, but now I must have that taskbar (love the colors and icons). Which taskbar was it? I tried one of the ones you posted, but I found several icons missing when I installed it, so I uninstalled it. I'll take some pics later today of what I've got now. I think the transparent or glass sliders did exactly what I wanted which was to get rid of the blue. Thanks again!
Latest Screen
So, here's what I've got so far. Was having some issues with the tabs on the slider having a blue shadow/background. But when I go into the contacts, it seems to disappear. Anyhow, I like your taskbar and icon packs, gotta give them a try.

I'm using tsowentaskbar6v3.1(lite).cab for the task bar (cab added to this post)
Haven't had any problems with it.
I went with the Version C for the Quick links, it gets rid of the shading around tabs and names, the photo issue I had earlier is gone now...I think I originally put them on in the wrong order, the slider is suppose to go last.
I noticed the same thing, with the blue patch after a soft reset, but I just go to contacts then all contact, then back to home screen and it goes away.
Now that I look, I am missing the Text Message Icon in this one, when I get a message, the original white message box appears...hmm....that's the only one I have noticed so fare...I might try a few more within the next couple of days.
I also noticed that the reception bars are not showing, when nothing is going on, I just have the earth with one tiny bar, but when making a phone call, they appear with the phone icon, I am going to try v6.2.1 and see if it changes anything
BTW, I have been installing these on my strage card, to save device space, not sure if this is the reason for any of this, I will try on the device too, some time later
Gonna give that taskbar a try and let you know how it works for me. I'm so much of a noob that if I have to change anything in the registry or something along those lines, I'm done with it. If it's not a cab file that self-installs, I won't risk screwing something up. I'd like to sit down and learn hands-on, but don't know anyone in my area. Thanks again.

Yeah, I'm the same way, if it's not an easy Cab install/uninstall I'm usually not too interested. I prefer the easy cab install to make sure nothing gets messed up.
I would do more if someone could show me a step by step, and show that it worked fine with their 'personal" phone without ruining anything.
Good luck, I tried 6v.2.1...it has the same issue, keeps the old wm text message, and doesn't show the signal strength...I'll try installing them on the internal memory...see if that makes any difference...which I doubt will...
Further down his page there is one for Wm6.5... I tried it, and was SOOOOOo excited when I found that the Signal Strength option Finally Worked!
But...the Speaker indicating sound/vibrate/silent is completely gone...
DUDE! I FOUND ONE! w/the signal actually working!!! lol
So fare the only thing I noticed is that the Text Message Icon is still the old white Bubble, but the Signal is working and the battery looks great!
Here it is: CAB
Just found another annoyance, the Volume Controls are changed a bit now, when you press the up/down side volume hard buttons, the image is slightly different, the bars indicating the Volume are now 3/4 the length of the original, with the first 1/4 no longer existing
Task manager and red X over lap sometimes too...but not a huge deal.
Screen Shots...nvm in my room, I can barely get two bars lol

[Q] CM7 - Theme change, LCD Density mismatch with apps

I guess this is a two-for-one. I did a completely fresh install of CM7 today. I applied the LCD density change manually, and I'm seeing that a good few apps aren't scaling (as in, they appear smaller, but are fully functional). On the previous installs, the apps essentially all worked, and I haven't found a way to get them to scale. Any ideas?
Also, I noticed that now, the messaging app uses the old white theme. I really liked the black one, that had stayed through my installs from a 6.x all the way to 7.0.2. Any way to switch it back? The theme changer didn't change anything.
Thanks.
Messaging - hit menu on the main part - settings - scroll down to extra settings and check black background.
As for the scaling I couldn't tell you. I have the problem too.

Awesome! I can't believe I didn't think to try just tapping menu and settings... thanks.
If anyone knows how to solve the scaling issue, the solution is welcome. It's just odd that it worked before, and now it won't.

Download spare parts from the market, open it up and make sure compatibility mode is not selected then reboot. This should solve scaling issues. But there are some apps which all wayscseem to have issues.

[Q] Notification Bar not changing with Theme Changes...

Sorry if this has been asked already, which I'm sure it has. I did a search and couldn't find anything.
I think I knew the answer to this a while ago, but I can't figure it out. I've done a few reboots, but still I can't get the respective Theme I chose to be the pull down widgets/notifications bar.
Also on my old CM7 rom, I had a red theme and it changed my Torch icon, my handcent, and a few other non-default apps. That's not happening now.
Is there something else I'm supposed to do besides a reboot?

It's any of the themes. Even when selecting Cyanbread, everything else goes blue, but the pull down widgets/bar still remains green from the default theme.

try booting into recovery and format "cache partition" boot into phone and change you theme to the one you want. then go settings>applications>manage applications> and force close "status bar" it will refresh the bar.
if it doesnt work then you might have to back up you phone and wipe all and flash the rom over.

[Q]Wicked Sensations Official Mod Issue

I am running the latest version of the Wicked Sensations ROM on my Sprint Galaxy S3 with the default firmware/radio/kernel and I went through the Kuban Updater to see which updates and mods I wanted and I came up with 12 of them as follows:
Add_Back_IME_Switcher
SecMMSFixed
Weather_Wall_Live_Fix
Wicked_Apex_Update
Wicked_Playstore_Update
Google_Maps_Update
Gmail_4.2.1_Update
4.2 Camera and Gallery
Black2_Close_Bar
Black_And_Blue_Pulldown
Center_Clock_Morph_Blue
Wicked_Stock_Battery_With_Percentage
The names may not be exactly correct since I do not have my phone with me (or available right now), but that should get close enough for my purposes.
I made a backup before flashing any of them, then since I had to do two sets of flashes anyway (since TWRP can only flash 10 zips at a time), I figured I would split the list in half and install the first 6, wipe cache and davlik, reboot and check it out, then repeat the process for the 2nd six.
The first six seemed to go fine. The versions were updated where I could check, and the fixes seemed to be made (again where I could easily test). After I flashed the second set, I have two issues that are either bugs with my flash or the fixes themselves. I am not sure which, but I would appreciate anyone helping me to figure out what if anything went wrong and how to recover. I can just flash my original backup and start over, but I wanted to get some suggestions first. The two issues are as follows:
I think the 4.2 Camera and Gallery mod was supposed to install the new android 4.2 camera and gallery and leave the original ones. It worked correctly for the camera, but I can't seem to find the new gallery. Is there something special I am supposed to do to get to it?
One of the other mods (I'm guessing one of the last 4) caused my status bar to go completely black. There is no clock, no battery, no signal icons, and no notifications. I can still pull it down and see the notifications themselves, but can't tell if there are any unless I pull it down. Any ideas?

I characterized the problem in number 2 a little better. It seems that the status bar is gone after a reboot until the first real notification (permanent ones like juice defender and avast do not seem to count) is received. After that the new status bar shows up and remains until the next reboot. I have been able to work around the problem by toggling an alarm in Alarm Clock Extreme Free on then back off after each reboot.
