Hey guys! I finally used a custom ROM! Woooo!
Now, it being 4.2.2, which, I have no idea how to use, it's pretty frickin' sweet. It's PacROM by Kick Buttowski, and a modified light kernel by bubor.
I have a few questions.
First, how do I remove the stupid (pretty) notification bubble that is always on the left side of the screen? I have a status bar; therefore I've no need for this. Next, last night, after turning off the phone, and placing it on the charger, it tried to boot, but just hung in the Pacrom is Loading screen, and didn't charge the battery. I don't know what causes that, or if it's and error from CM, but it's pretty annoying.
I love the new ROM, but if it continues to act up, I think I will have to find another.
Any ideas, or suggestions?
Hey!
Halo is what that notification bubble is called. You should be able to get rid of it by double tapping, dragging it to the center, and then dragging it to the x that appears.

Thanks for the reply!
Ok, I got rid of that now. It's a nifty idea, just not one I need.
Any ideas on the boot hangup?

Another question for you guys... I was playing around and was trying to get notification bar mod to work on my phone. i backed up the systemui.apk, then used the modified one and overwrote the stock one. well, it didnt work and made my notification bar stop working and rotated my screen to the side like it was docked. I replaced the original systemui.apk and got my status bar and notification area back, but my screen wont rotate back, and when i hit the home button it takes me to what looks like would be the home screen if the device was docked. Help please, its annoying the hell outta me!
Does anyone haved the stock systemUI.apk?
**EDIT: failed at everything i tried, but somehow its all fixed now! I guess i just need to power it off for a little bit.
Hi guys,
First time android user here. I've had a search on google and on this forum and I can't seem to find an answer to this so:
The HOX displays music controls in a widget when the lock screen is activated. However when there is no signal (such as when I am underground) this is replaced by a gigantic "no signal!" notification.
This is really annoying as it means I then have to go through the password screen and switch to the player before being able to switch track.
Is there any way to disable this notification? I mean, I can see there's no signal right there in the top corner...
Thanks in advance.
Bump
The lock screen player is amazingly buggy.
The controls often fail to work, and when there is no signal that "no signal!" message will often randomly switch back and forth with playback controls entirely unpredictably. I've come to the conclusion that this is a bug so hopefully there'll be a fix soon.
It's disappointing to see how rough around the edges a lot of the sense stuff is. It has very good intentions but frankly if this is supposed to be HTC's answer to iOS it's got a looooong way to go.

iOS doesn't even do anything, thats why it appears to work. theres no actual functions to get buggered up in the first place.
Thanks, but that doesn't actually help me with my phone. If you haven't noticed I bought an android device, not an iPhone.

one way i got round this is by pressing power button a couple more times to get the controls back on the lock screen when screen switched on again. might work for you too. still better than going through password etc.
but i agree not clever from htc. it's things like these which make products well tested and thought through.
OK, i know this is trivial, and not a big deal at all, but I am a little OCD about stupid little things...and this bothers me to no end.
i have no lock screen shortcuts
when i go to unlock, i used to be able to move in any direction and have the unlock icon in the white circle follow my finger when i got outside of the lock ring.
but in the last few nightlies, no matter where i go, the white circle with lock icon in it, ALWAYS goes to the right. if i go up, it goes right, if i go down, it goes right. ect.
its hard to explain, but press the lock screen "lock icon" and slide it to the outside of the circle that shows up, and you will see a solid white circle with a black unlock icon in it. thats the circle i am talking about. i want it to follow my finger, and not default to the right. any way i can do this?
again, its a trivial issue, but it bothers me to no end. i ended up uninstalling because of that. and now being on stock 4.2.2, i get what i want
does it bother anyone else, or just me?
apparently i am just a little too O.C.D. for custom ROM's
As of today I have started to get a gray bar that appears on the bottom of my screen with a design that looks like a thumbprint on it. It covers the bottom part of my keyboard making the space and return keys completely inaccessible. The only way I've found to temporarily get rid of it is to restart my phone. Anyone know what this is?
hold home and swipe up to see if it goes away.
How about a screenshot? Install a new app recently?
I took a screenshot, and tried to post it with the initial question, but the forums won't let me post it since I have never commented here before.
No new apps, but I had just recently started using the car dock. It did it probably about 15 times that day, but hasn't done it since, and I didn't come back to look for answers until the next day.
Thanks for the responses, and if it happens again I'll try Tidbits suggestion and post if it works.
Stuck in full screen mode -
The Status bar and bottom bar auto hide. until I swipe to bring them back. How do I disable? On viper rom.
Wrong place to post. There is a thread for ViperROM believe it or not.
I wasn't certain it was because of viper rom, as I can find no relevant setting in Venom tweaks to fix this. Is there a core Android setting for this? I've searched extensively and found nothing.
I believe this is in the right forum now.
any ideas?
ok well... strange that my android started going full screen on viperrom suddenly and no one knows how to change it back. guess it's time to wipe and start over.

I know this is kind of an old thread, but I just had the same problem. I think I put it in fullscreen mode while it was in my pocket and couldn't figure out what was going on for about 2 hours. For anyone else that encounters the same situation, here's the solution:
Press and the power button. At the bottom of the "Phone options" window that pops up is the Fullscreen mode option.
Also found that when I take it out of fullscreen mode, I have to reboot it to get the Status Bar to stop auto-hiding.
Thanks
you're a life saver,
i dont know i missed that out, i rebooted the phone a dozen times and scoured the venom tweak settings for hours to no avail
thaks again

buddy_lee - You're awesome. Thank you. I'd been dealing with this for a few weeks and it was driving me insane. I"ve looked through every setting on the phone, viper, and nova and couldn't figure it out. Can't believe how simple it actually was.
THANK YOU
Thank you so much!! I was crazy because cannot find out why my navigation bar auto hide, for about 2 hours. You are my hero.
I just register as a new member for comment and thank you for your help buddy_lee
