Runs a command that corrects all file permissions in Android. Can also cause trouble but usually it helps with issues.
2) “Zipalign all APK’S”

System
1) “Mount Sytem r/w”
Mounts the System with Read and Write permissions for file browsers. This can potentially be dangerous because malware could abuse that but on the other hand, its helpful too if you like messing with your system and malware could also execute this command anyway, since you already run the device as root user.
2) “Disable Logcat”
Disables the logcat of the system. Makes it a little faster and use a wee bit less juice but you won’t be able to provide your Dev with a LogCat if you have problems. These logs are incredibly helpful for debugging. So just try it out if it betters anything for you.

Same as above for down animation.
3) “Enable Boot sound”
4) "Custom boot sound"
CPU
Apply settings on boot (Automatically applies CPU and file system settings on phone boot includes boot-loop protection
File System
1) "I/O Scheduler
You can choise your preferred I/O (ex noop) [at the moment, there is only noop because htc hasn't relase source code yet
CPU/Kernel Settings
1) "CPU Governor"
You can choise your preferred Governor (ex. ondemand, powersave, etc)
2-3) "CPU Min/Max Frequency"
You can choise your preferred CPU's frequency
4) "CPU Screen off max"
Values of cpu when the screen is off

Already asked this in the ROM thread but will re-post here for the sake of making use of this FAQ thread. Hope somebody can answer me.
Been checking out all the changelogs since 3.3.1 but I can't seem to find any mentions about the fix for the following 2 bugs;
1. Notifications overlapping a centered clock. (Does not exist pre-3.3.x)
2. Appearance of 3-dot menu on apps that have implemented them on the top-right corner.
I'm sorry if this question has been repeatedly asked in one way or another. Cheers

Presume for the 3 dot thing you mean you've tried turning it on in Tweaks but that doesn't stick and the 3 dot in top right hand corner doesn't appear on, say, Google Play ?
If so. I have the same issue. I think the team is aware but I'm less certain they will ever come here to look given how fed up they are in the main thread.
Hello everyone last night I performed a clean install from scratch to better understand what could be the causes of the continuous FC clock widget ...
As always I did clean cache and flashed the boot from the bootloader, in recovery I did a full wipe compressed memory card ....
I installed the rom and I restarted .....
When you first start after entering my account it says that my sd memory problems must be formatted (not sure if I touched qlk in recovy type unmount sd) to format it and start the phone and update .....
After the last update the phone is fine, so I decide to install the Theme Red Viper Jb 3.2.1. and I think I found the problem because now no force close ......
Let me explain the Viper Rom contains two types of clocks with weather;
1) a normal one and
2) a transparent .....
Theme red instead makes them both transparent .......
I noticed that at least the Fc enl my phone was when I chose the second gave me the FC so I took it off, I went into active management I finished and put on the screen princiale the 1 .......
I'll keep you updated Thanks
In add widgets, clock is missing, no clock widget whatsoever.
Can anyone help.
BTW I did search, read FAQ etc. There is similar issues but I can't find a solution to this.
Thanks.

That can happen when you don't wipe before updating rom.
But can be solved by clearing data of Sens in apps list.
That will get all widgets back but you have to setup all your pages again.

You don't mention exactly which game it is, but there are a bunch of games that aren't compatible with the Nvidea chipset.
Take a look here, maybe it is a solution for you:

Re: [ViperX]Q&A ViperX
When i have "custom app notifications" enabled on my lockscreen, my screen wakes up every time I receive a message. Is there a way to disable this? Or maybe for next update?
Also this: when i installed the rom, i choose to remove sense, and use apex instead, I try to enable transparent status bar on homescreen, but it wont recognize apex as a homescreen. I can only make it transparent if i enable transparent status bar on apps.

We should also try to avoid unneccessary posts to keep this new thread clean
By the way, the list of bugs and workarounds should be added to the first page here. I think a moderator posted it on ViperX thread around pages 420-430.
Download notifications keep popping up even after being swiped away,
also lock screen music widget doesn't let you use the controls.
Sometimes takes a couple of tries to wake the phone up after screen off.
other than that its cool
3.3.3 btw !

Cool! The one thing I missed from my Wimmobile days is that I can switch between apps quickly by pressing the icons on the notification bar(Taskbar?). As shown on below page. Strange that nobody had done that on android. This is the next best thing!

Will be even better if there is an option to adjust the width of the "windows" to make it less obtrusive.
Thanks!
Some suggestion/issue:
1. Can you make small apps to have transparent background always? After you select one of the task, the small app background stay opaque until you tap the running application.
2. Is it possible to have button to minimise the small app into floating small icons? (similar to selecting minimise from the notification windows)
3. I don't know whether this is by design, but when you open up the phone application and then touch back button, it will remove it from the small app. If you open up the task swithcer however, it will still listed phone app as the most recent one.
PS: Love your mod for Xperia Ray (I still used your system ui mod for ray) :good:

1. Well if i can override the theme of sony small app built in theme it should be possible.
2. It is possible but it will take a space if i put it just like that into the header. Unless i make it as horizontal list (which need some time to try).
3. Yes it was my intention to remove all closed app from the menu. In the stock Android setting, the Recent Apps will always store the closed application, so the next time you open it, it will not move the existing task to the front, but start a new activity for it. What i did was to remove all the closed apps, so to reduce the recent apps number there. But that's a good suggestion, i might add an option to fix that.

New Version 1.6.0 is uploaded! Changelog:
1. Added custom UI and transparency
2. New UI options
3. Added Option to view all Recent Apps just like the stock Recent App contain.
Ps: the UI in fact can be docked to the edge of your screen as i found out. Just double tap the move button and then drag it into the near edge of the screen, preferably at the right
Edit: It is recommended to turn on showing running apps. There are some undetected bugs with some Google apps of you leave it unchecked. Will inspect later. In the mean time stay with showing Running Apps only.
1.6.5 uploaded! Changelog:
1. UI tweak
2. Duplicated Recent App Fix
3. Additional Minimize and Fit to Window button
1.7.0 is out changelog see OP.
@hansip87
kinda offtopic question this but how do you get those 6 icons next to eachother here?:
Hi,
So finally I've upgraded my G3 cat.6 (F460K) to lollipop. I find a few things annoying and I guess it is applicable to all G3:
1. lock screen notification - is it just me or LG made it useless? what's the point of all notifications if you cannot enter them from the lock screen. Am I missing something? some notifications (such as calendar) I can tap and then slide below it to arrive directly to the event. other notification does not work so I don't see the point in such notifications. tell me if it happen to you to.
2. my bottom bar is white. in some applications (whatsapp, browser etc) every time I type something and keyboard pops up, the bottom bar turns black. after finishing the typing it goes back to white.
3. no Qmemo (screen capture) from the home bottom
4. the notification bar keeps changing colors but most of it is not the same color as the app. is there any rule?
Please share your thoughts. and tell me if the above happen to you too.
Thanks.
1. works with all. When you press notification it indicates that you have to unlock the screen. After unlock app will open.
2. settings-homescreen-navbar style. Which one you chosed?
3. not using so wouldnt know
4. its material design. Apps that are not built with material design will not have the same backgroud
1. Yeah, and having only 2 notifications there is frustrating. There's room for more...
2. Strange, never happened to me on both stock and hacker's keyboard.
3. Yep, no navring for 5.0! I really hope that it's fixable...
4. The rule should be "let application decide, if it doesn't care - then use color of action bar". Usually, actionbar sits on top of activity, and everything looks fine.
Hey guys,
I'm right now facing some issues on my D-HD phone, which runs CM 12.1 custom ROM from this forum. Also I'm on the 12.1-20151201-unofficial-aceopt (!) build.
Issues:
a) The background of the untouched Lock screen is blacked out, as soon as I swipe to unlock the intended wallpaper is showing for a sec, then the home screen.
b) The status bar, if swiped down, blacks out the whole screen, popup messages aren't stuck to the bar and are hiding behind it.
I can't do a screenshot of it, due to the behavior of the screenshot option, that is killing the expanded status bar.
c) On the screen for recent apps (by button), ALL app preview screens are empty, only the head bars with the app names are appearing.
My phone was bug free, until I started to test an self-programmed app through Android Studio on it (per ADB, app wasn't complex nor corrupted).
I'm using the standard Trebuchet launcher (though I tested others, to see if it causes the problems), and the "Euphoria Dark Theme for CM12" ,which was also installed before the problems appeared.
I also did several reboots.
I did the full forum and google search, but wasn't able to find issues or solutions that are like this.
Do you have an idea, what am I able to do?
Thank you!
Which i have understand with your issues is that,
1)your are not getting transparent status bar, right?
2) after pulling down your notification panel you get black background in that, right ?
3) your lock screen's background is black , right ?
4) and after all these 3 issues you were also facing no animation in you window/scroll etc, right ?
For those all problem just go to settings>about phone and tap about 7 to 8 time on build number then go back you will see developer option there now tap on that find the option some thing like "force high-end graphics" switch on that and reboot your phone your problems will be solved.
