Ok, I know someone has its preferences about that but I think standard 320 dpi icons and Widgets too big.
For me 292 is a better value. It allows me a 6x5 grid so I can use the real estate of this big screen. What's yours?

What app do you use to change denisty? does it requie Root?
What is the name of the battery app you are using in your curtain?

LCD density change requires root. There are many apparently to do it but I like LCD density modder pro that fix market compatibility issues too
The battery notification is from battery monitor widget. You can use different icon packs. If you are referring to the numbers on the system icon they're from the cm9 release (themed in green with Androidiani theme)

292 looks good,
@nightranger73:
Thanks a million for the beautiful attitude, and for Helping, you are great!
Always 280 with smallest fonts for me. I use LCD density Moder pro too.

Hi..
This is my first real thread in XDA and I hope it will be useful to a very specific nuisance in the Galaxy Nexus...
..."making a wallpaper fit in one homescreen"
No matter how you set a wallpaper in the Galaxy Nexus it never ends up fitting whole in one homescreen. Especially for people like me who like keeping only one homescreen.
There is an App that can do this, it is called "Multi Picture Live Wallpaper" app.
You can download the app from the Google Play Store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture
Here is an example I have by taking screenshots of my Galaxy Nexus....
-- In the first screenshot, the wallpaper was applied normally and only the face shows. :crying:
-- In the second screenshot, the wallpaper was applied using the app, the difference is obvious. :laugh:
Enjoy!
Interested in the below wallpaper? It can be found in this thread...

I was actually looking for an app like that. Thanks!
This is cool. I like how you can select a reflection at the top and bottom

Hello community,
essentially PA COLORS is a .xml file that contains definitions for apps and its colors for navigation bar, -buttons, -glow, status bar and -icon. It can be applied within HYBRID PROPERTIES and colors every app defined.
The original one includes just a few apps. My interpretation of PA COLORS includes every system app of PA Rom, PA Gapps and some of the most common user apps.
The colors are picked precisely from apps or their icons by taking screenshots and catching hexcodes with a colorpicker on PC. My goal was to make a preset that works for all the different UIs + PIE! And it does :good:
So, if you are new to PA, you need some inspiration either what’s possible or not or you're just to lazy coloring apps on your own feel free to try my interpretation of PA COLORS. Let's start...
HowTo:
1) backup your PA preferences in hybrid properties
2) backup your existing 0_colors.xml in system/etc/paranoid/preferences by renaming it to 0_colors.xml.bak (use your favorite root explorer)
3) extract and copy my 0_colors.xml in the folder mentioned above
4) set permissions to rw-,r--,r--
5) apply (new) PA COLORS in Hybrid Props
6) reboot
Themed Apps:
see screenshots down below
Notes:
- settings for „size/layout“ and „extra“ don't get changed by PA Colors
- only colors of defined apps are getting changed the rest of your apps will stay as you set them
- some apps pick up colors from their host apk. e.g. phone/contacts or maps/local/navigation will always look the same
- play music gets the colors from android system (just to mention)
- you don’t like my colors: restore your pa prefs or delete/edit the corresponding lines in 0_colors.xml (use notepad++)
IF YOU'RE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD IT,YOU CAN HIT THANKS :good:
regards
O
[size=+1]Due to the lastet style changes on PIE that comes with the build of May 26th my color preset doesn't work as intended if you use PIE! There is no individual color for the navbuttons of PIE! Now it is linked to the one of status icon color which is a mess IMHO![/size]
Great work thanks!!!

Glad you like it.
Will see where this thing will go. Depends on the community if I may ask which apps should be added?!If I do a poll for that?! Or if I just keep it up to date when apps getting updated and add the ones I like.
I'm open for suggestions.
Really loving it. This speed up the customize of the color... Only one question what do you use for setting well the color I used to screen shot the app and with an app catch the color in the screen, there's something to speed up the process? It's really annoying that pa doesn't have a hex color catcher in the pop-up... Maybe can be implemented later...

Anyone that you can use the tool to store the color from the pic and be able to see the hexcode...i use photoshop but i think any decent photoeditor can do this!!!
The OT give me something to do until i fell asleep so i edit some of mine apps...and merge them with the OT's file...so here you go...im just hopping it works properly!!!Always keep backup!!
The only one I'm missing is a good Google Chrome colour preset for both navigation & status bar (I use PhabletUI); any suggestions?

I took screenshots and used colorpicker on my lappy. IMO it is way more accurate than using an color picker app (and my big thumb). And yes, it took me a while
@parker09: yeah, u're right. Chrome should be added. In the meantime I can provide the hexcodes the way I would set the colors for chrome when I'm at home.

Had a look into it. It can't work due to the fact he messed up the file:
<setting type="Hybrid" target="com.google.android.keep.colors" value="FF585A5B|FFBBE535|FF75DDBB|FF585A5B|FFFFBB22"/>
<setting type="Hybrid" target="com.android.launcher.colors=4A000000|B2FFFFFF|FFFFFFFF|4A000000|FF33B5E5"/>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
He simply forgot to set up the values correctly. First line for 'Keep' is how it should look like the second misses the correct phrase " value=".
So, if you have time, add the correct phrases or use mine and add his colors for the additional apps.
regards
I guess,I found a nice one for android system fitting play music
Used colors are the 3 at the top 3
Maybe switch status bar and status icon colors when not using pie..
Does anyone know which apps are effected by android system?

android system should coloring every app thats not set with own values + lockscreen and app drawer. That's why I decided to leave it on default. Reboot is needed for the last two ones to get applied.
Ahh, that's why I didn't see another change..
I'll wait and decide
Have colored chrome too, if anyone wants the colors just ask.
It fits the colors of the icon -I just like that better than the boring greys
I won't clutter your thread anymore, sorry

Oh yes i didn't read the name of the uploaded and I thought you were the same person, yes, is your color fixed, I like so much your style really near to my old custom color... For me chrome color should be like the color of the app white and grey... I don't like the color posted by the user, too much color... I like color in app but not too much and must be similar to the ui of the app only sharing my thoughts...
Edit: what do you think about this color, guys?

Thats nice...i didnt use chrome so i didnt make a color for this...but it could be nice if we all contribute our color and the OP can merge all our colors to one single file so all of us can use it to have as many as we can colored apps!!!

Maybe we could organize a bit to not have multiple work.
Like making an extendable list of apps and people who use them choose nice colors (it would only be important that it has a consistent look)
If one likes an app more colorful or not, he can change it manually (like in the chrome case)

Hello.
Maybe someone know how to set not cropped wallpaper? Even "Wallpaper autoset" app , which worked fine on other phones, is cropping wallpaper..
I get over that problem by using 720x1280 pic for lockscreen and 1440x1280 for homescreen wallpaper. This is the size the default wallpapers used.

Are you sure you tried 1440x1280 for homescreen ? Because if you tried for lockscreen instead then you would have to crop. Lock screen requires 720x1280. For homescreen 1440x1280 works fine for me and croping not needed.

Is there a way to change the default icons? The main problem is the downloaded apps, and the white outside of them. because they really look horrible.
Thanks.
Download new theme or another launcher
And if you want to take it to another level: Root + XPosed + Unicon
Sent from my P6-U00 using Tapatalk
If it works like on the Mate, after a root, you can simply change a value in the build.prop file, in the line "ro.config.hwtheme=1". If you set it to 0 instead of 1, after a reboot the themes won't load, but do this only if you are using a different launcher, because with the stock you will still have a much worse "generic" background image behind every app. Also you probably already know that modifying the build.prop file can sometimes cause problems.
