Ugly, cloudy gradients. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi, maybe someone can help or tell me I'm crazy. I'm running the latest XenonHD ROM and I've got what I can only describe as ugly, cloudy gradients in most wallpapers and the XenonHD boot animation.
Is there something I can do about this? Does anyone know what I'm talking about.
I can try to elaborate if needed.
Many thanks.

From my understanding that's just a different gradient map for use in the settings screen and other screens. I've already got a theme using pure black for most of these menus...
On another note.. Playing with color settings in francois kernel helps... I wanted to avoid doing that as last time I messed with the colors I ended up messing with them for like 6 hours. Can't get em' right. I don't know what right is. Looking for a color guide...

[REQ] Change lock screen clock size/location?

Hi. Recently downloaded a theme that changed the lock screen to a much larger clock. Anyone know how I can change that back to stock? Want to avoid installing an app to resolve the issue. Thanks.

You need to ask in the thread about your theme.
Ahh OK. I did and he never replied to the request. Figured I would look else where. Thanks though.

pretty simple if you have java installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188389
Assuming you don't mind reverting everything to stock theme for your rom, just re-flash your rom without wiping.
That's restore it.
Yeah reflashing the rom works but the theme is great, just the clock is ugly. I'll go ahead and try the top method and see if that works.

Please help me find this SMS look :)

Alright, so I have been using so many roms lately and I remember that one of them had a real clean SMS / mms layout and if anyone could help me find it I would be greatly appreciative!
It had a dark grey background and blue and white message back grounds. BUT each of the mesaage back grounds looked like post-its with a corner turned up. I really want the apk so of anyone can direct me to the ROM that would be awesome! Thanks

well if you're not willing to use a custom ROM or an app there's really not much help to be given.

[REQ] Gradient Fix for settings screen/etc

A while back on my galaxy nexus someone had created a gradient fix which fixes the ugly gradient effect on the settings menus and other programs that use the same gradient.
Anyone that can do the same for this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1588613
I'll take a look at it later today. Because recently Google changed the background to an XML file instead of an image like it used to be so it may prove to be useless.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Edit: Yeah unforturnetly i cant port it, since 4.2 its now an xml that controls the background_holo, However i could remove the xml's and then just use the image... hmm... gives me an idea... can you give me your rom's framework-res.apk and be willing to test something for me?
Yea sure, where do i find that file with root manager?
I found one in system/framework/framework-res.apk hope this is what you need!
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/13675174/framework-res.apk
It is Paranoid Android Beta 8...
If it fails, i should just be able to dirty flash beta 8 again right?

Yeah. That will reflash the system partition.
Sucks about the XML change. Why change it and still not fix the banding? Do their engineers not see it?

No.. they've already acknowledged the issue and promised a fix. Just didn't happen in time for the 4.2.1 update (they had to fix that December bug quickly)
I think UBER forgot about this
There has to be a way! Can the ROMS be modified to look at a png instead of a xml file?

Sorry bout that did forget.. but am fixing it now... all i did was delete the xml's and added the pictures instead. :silly: will see what happens.
Edit: Okay here you go OP, test this and see what happens.

Flash in recovery no need to wipe anything. Just make sure you have the the original zip handy in case you need to reflash. Good luck :fingers-crossed:

Ahh, really? I missed that! Thanks
I always just assumed that's how they designed it, I mean the first time if it was an image, someone had to have designed and approved that image right? That's why I always just assumed that's what they wanted it to look like, Cuz they could have just used a plain image if they intended it to be a flat background.... Lol,
(Now this makes me think they DID intend it to look like that, but when sooooo many users said they didn't like it they decided "hmm, let's just call it a bug and we'll change it later" hahaha)
