Hi - I just set up a new S9 (AT&T). I installed my apps and went through some out of the box software updates so its now running 8.0.
Last night I noticed that when on my homescreen my Status Bar is now gone. It comes back if I open an app or go into the Apps drawer, but I cant see it from any page on my homescreen.
I can still swipe down from the top of the screen to get to the settings shortcuts, but I cant see Notifications, Battery, Signal, etc from any homescreen pages.
Its actually making me crazy - was hoping someone might have some thoughts on how to remedy this?
Thanks.
Hi after trying all morning I finally solved this - I found a lot of other posts outside XDA struggling with this issue so just wanted to update in case anyone else is having this problem.
I was using a picture as my wallpaper. For some reason this was making the bar invisible (or somehow the color changes to blend in to the background completely?). I changed to a Samsung stock wallpaper and it was visible again. I then changed back to set my picture as the wallpaper, and now the status bar is still visible...
Whatever - dont know why, but it worked!

Can anyone tell me what this circle icon with a slash at the one o' clock position means (third from the left)? This just appeared out of the blue 2 days ago and doesn't disappear, even if I restart the phone. I have checked whether any new strange have appeared but can't see anything out of the ordinary.
If I pull down the notification bar, I don't see any app associated with this, it's just empty really. I check the HTC Desire HD Manual as well and unless I missed it, this icon is not mentioned there.
Any ideas?
strange, never seen it before...might be some third party App, causing it to appear.
Are you using a custom theme/ROM? If not, I'd guess it's almost definitely put in there by a third-party app, it doesn't look like it matches with the rest of the HTC/Android icons.
It looks like a power off button to me.
Have you try playing with that icon?
Hi, it was the Power Control Plus Widget! I found out after killing the apps one by one Thanks for your help.
Hi all,
I'm having a weird issue with my GS3 when using customizable grid view. I'm randomly missing one icon at the bottom of two of my pages in app drawer. I have not hidden any icons. It is the exact same issue as this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764222
It fixes itself if you change to alphabetical view, but I want to use customizable view, as it displays the icons in order of recency. Has anyone else seen this issue? I noticed it only happened with preinstalled apps (had it occur with downloaded apps, but a reboot fixed this).
Thanks for the help. Any advice/alternatives are appreciated

I just recently rooted to 4.3 and I just noticed today that my lock screen clock is off center. It appears to be aligned to the left. Has anyone else noticed this or know of a fix to align this?
thanks!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I see the same thing( non-root ). I couldn't find an option to center it.
I did set the Clock size from Small to Large in the Lock screen widgets, and it made it look a little better.
Clock Left Alignment
Yeah I shiver every time I go to unlock my phone with the clock off center. I have looked around a bit to see if I could change the settings but as said before it only gives the option to change Size and add date. I just received a text message and it shows on my lock screen and I can see why they put it more to the left but if I turn off the text preview I thought it may correct the clock.
I just updated this morning and will search around but I am still trying to figure out a few things. If anyone has a fix for the following i would <3 you!
1. I hate the text messaging images now(picture of contact) any way to turn off?
2. I want the status bar text preview but not on my lock screen. Option combines the preview for the status bar and lock screen.
3. I dont want the notification box to open on my lock screen. "New Message"
If anyone has any advice or would like to tell me to suck it up please let me know!
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.

Hello.
I'm having a small issue in 7.0.47. When I press any icon (to open the app), it shows a faded black square (like indicating the touch).
This weren't happening in the previous 6.x versions, and isn't happening in the stock launcher too.
I'm not sure if I'm reporting well, but I've tried my best.
Its happening with somebody else? Any tips to get rid of that?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I've searched a bit more in nova settings, and I've solved it by changing the animation, from stock to adaptive icons.
