nothing major but, - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

I was wondering if someone could help me out if there not too busy. I downloaded dirty unicorn rom and its really nice and all. but how come when my device booted. it looked nothing like the screen shots on their page. its been a while since Ive been on this site. but the last time I was on this site, when a person downloaded a rom. what you saw on the screen shots is what you saw when you booted your phone. is that not the case any more?

The screen cap shows everything you can do. Pretty much all CM ROMs look exactly the same on first boot. The difference is what tweaks and settings are cooked in.

thanks

All it takes is Dashclock for your home screen...turning on weather module and adding cLock to the lock screen with weather...and turning on colorized AOKP tiles in order to get those results iirc.

yeah

I've been trying to change the toggle colors so each one looks different but I havent figured it out yet. I dont have a lot of experience with cynogen mod roms or paranoid android. I usually just download the stock roms

Scroll down to "custom colors" and select randomly colorize, and you can select the random colors.

Yah I know, I still love this phone over the G1, only thing I wish this phone had was more Ram and of course 3G... that would seal the deal on the phone if it had that...
Fonts worked great! Thanks alot. However i cannot figure out how to delete the CHome_Iconbar_background file. Cannot delete it on the phone, or from the computer. I tried to turn off the iconbar and then delete, and that still didnt seem to work.

Which ROM you using? Guessin Ricky since then it would make sense you can't delete it since it's in the ROM.
If not then turn off the media Top Bar restart then try and delete.
yep, rickys. anyone know if its possible to maybe just disable the background?
Well i found ONE background that would make the bar transparent! So looks good now, not exactly what i wanted, but not bad. Now once i figure out how everyone gets the weather apps integrated with clock/date tab ill be all set

Very interesting question, all i found so far is one for Symbian...

How do you change the Lockscreen Wallpaper?

Although it says in Settings > Personalize "Choose... lock screen wallpaper", there is no way to actually change the image. On earlier versions of HTC Sense for Android you could have a different picture on the lock screen and as a wallpaper, but not now. Another backward step or am I missing something?
I saw it also, the information is still in the user manual by the way, but not possible.
Is there a way to have the weather widget on lockscreen?
Thanks for your help
Nothing on my menus for lock screen...would be nice but tbh I'm not that fussed
I want to be able to change it too. I rather liked that feature on my Hero

I downloaded LockBotPro... its a good app an there's a decent amount of customization you can do to the lock screen... add your own wallpaper, lock slider & sound effect but shame its not compatibile with the AndWobble app, that would of made it a thousand times better
Is it possible to have live/animated lock screen themes with LockBotPro?

Not sure, but i would hardly imagine anyone having a go at it, people are trying to run away from live wallpapers to save up some battery life
This feature worked for me, and was present in the settings menu. ALthough I noticed at some point that my lockscreen image was not what I set it to, and the menu option was not there anymore......
I went back expecting the menu option to be there but it wasn't. Wonder whats going on. The feature was there and it worked for me...

different phone app

Is there any rom or flashable zip to change the phone app to something nicer?
I absolutely hate the stock answer screen, it annoys me that sometimes I can't pull the slider or it let's go of it. not to mention the dialer, it looks so crappy :/
Right now I'm on MIUI and the answer screen is absolutely perfect, but I'd like to get back on samsung fw with few mods, and this keeps me from doing that.

You can find some dialer apps on the market by searching for "dialer": https://market.android.com/search?q=dialer&so=1&c=apps
hate the people who only read briefly through the topic, I'm mostly annoyed by the answer screen and I'd like the dialer to be default, there are few roms that have changed dialer that's why I asked, but I'd like to know about the answer sliders also.

There is no way to change those. Only way is some themes that theme the sliders as well (but in the end, they're still sliders)

....need the same too!!
well the miui phone app is great, answer screen has a drag down slider, it's so much more confortable to use it.
I don't know.. maybe it's a problem with vertical drag or something, on miui you can also change lockscreen to be iphone style, it looks exactly, but if I drag the arrow it's glitchy while the drag down slider works flawlessly.
so, does the samsung fw support changing the answer screen to something else?

i have the EXACT same problem. also trying to find a other phone.apk, setting the home button as answer is NOT a solution.
Hanger you guys looked at Widgetlocker in the market, it will change the lock screen and answering sliders...
WidgetLocker does not change anything else than the lock screen.

Question about icon frames

Quick question, I have seen a couple of places how to remove the white frames from around the icons.
Should be Settings > Display > Icon frames.
However in my new T-Mobile Note 7, that option is greyed out. I can't click on it to change the settings.
Has anyone else seen this? I would love some assistance.
Thanks in advance!

I think this option only works if you don't have a custom theme applied. If you switch back to the default theme, the option should be available again.
I've noticed the same thing using default thene.

Thanks for the reply. I haven't added a theme. the phone is brand new. I tried clicking on the default theme again just to make sure.
Icon frames is still unavailable.

Maybe just download a frameless icon pack you like.
Having this problem too. Wonder if it's got to do with the system update that got applied on the first day?
Same possibly here. I'm on T-Mobile with default theme. I would like to remove the frame.
I have only been able to change this setting whike in easy mode (which i don't like). It is greyed out for me in standard mode as well.
Ok, I figured it out. I'm using Nova Launcher and Sammy doesn't like that. I changed to touch wiz for my launcher and suddenly Icon frames are available to change.
I changed back to Nova again afterwards, and the change stuck, so it seems to be a reasonable workaround.
Let me know if this works for you.
I don't have a custom launcher but I do have a theme. I deactivated the theme and it worked. I guess the theme locked the borders on. Sucks.
Yeah so I don't think it's launcher specific but rather theme based. Once you apply a theme it seems to lock in whatever the icon choice was. So I went back to default theme (which opened up the option again), changed to icon only, and then applied my theme again. Now it's locked again, but as icon only.
I have no theme and stock launcher and it is still greyed out. Switched to easy mode, made the change and went back and all is well now.

Has anyone had any luck removing the frames and using the Google Now Launcher? I can turn it off in TouchWiz and Easy Mode, but as soon as I switch back to Google Now Launcher they come back and the option to turn them off becomes I unavailable.
I might not mind these damned circles if it was consistent, but it only affects about half the app icons and the other half are normal. It's crazy to look at...
Yeah it seems like the only way to get them to stay TRULY off is to use touchwiz, using the standard them.
I know everyone is saying you can switch to off, then go back to what you were on - and it is "locked in off". I agree that it looks this way in the settings.
However the icons clearly have the frames around them still.
I have stuck with touchwiz for how smooth it is, but I think I am going to give up on it.
Also, the only reason why I say its smooth is because my initial setup was with "good lock" (needed to download an apk for that as it doesn't show up in store) and google now launcher and stuff - but there was a decent amount of choppiness and also the battery was not performing to my expectations. So I did a factory reset (which some people say fixes stuff like this) and sure enough, things got better. Battery better, smoothness better. However I have stuck with normal touchwiz since then... been afraid to change it since everything seems better now lol.
I hear you.
I had to try several different icon themes but i found one (that i like) that doesn't leave borders on the rest of the icons. I think it's some sort of default setting that goes unchanged when custom themes are created.
Trial and error. Good thing the Samsung theme store has a preview option. It reduces a lot of hassle.

Same here. I ended up going back to TouchWiz mostly because I couldn't stand the weird frames on some of the icons. It's not as good as the Google Now launcher, but it's good enough.
I've been searching for this answer for weeks, finally I found it, nearly started to think my device was faulty.
My option is unavailable and I have stock Rom and launcher.
But this option was available but not anymore. Can't understand why???
