Apps dont draw underneath the bars, its black under there. Trebuchet can do it and a couple of others. Ask your launchermaker for an option to zero out the wallpaper offsetes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
Novas wallpaper offsets. The app is willfully programmed like that. See my last answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
I think you are mixing up sth. Choose your launcher in the app list, goto the extras page, choose colors, click apply, press home. It works as expected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
And then try to reboot. You'll see white buttons on black background until you open another app and push Home.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
choose tebuchet in your applist and give it a color of #AA000000. you cant pick opacity in the colorpicker yet because we didnt want to implement it for only one app that can use it (trebuchet). we'll think of something to activate it for launchers. as i said, normal apps cannot deal with it because they dont draw underneath the bars, opacity is useless for them.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tijmen:
Ah, good to know. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Piccles:
Gangsterjoop - I found out what the issue was with the lockscreen not covering my entire screen...my lockscreen dpi was set at 256. When I changed it back to 320, the entire screen filled up. I have encountered another issue though...i can't "centre" the time - the option doesn't do anything.

P.s. would it be possible to change the weather to the more colourful icons floating about? (i will try and locate them).

I know you said this is a work in progress...so i'm sure you will iron things out as and when you have time.

Thanks again.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rrohanjs:
cant thankyou enough moles i'm just loving this new feature, time to show off my phone to friends ( especially iphone users :P )
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] N1XM1X:
same problem here.. the running apps navbar sticks after screen lock
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m.is.for.michael:
I think he meant the colour of the wifi icon, the clock, the battery icon, etc.

Anyway, small bug report:

When I go to hybrid properties / extras and click on one of the colour swatches, I get the colour picker come up, choose a colour, save, close the app, and all is fine. The new feature works wonderfully, and I'm having fun experimenting with what colours work best.

But when I go back to change a colour I've already set, the colour swatch in hybrid properties / extras is fine, but when I click on it the colour picker seems to load up with some completely random colour.

On further inspection, it seems to be the colour from the app I last opened up in hybrid properties.

So, say I go set colours for paranoid prefs... say blue nav bar with white buttons and white glow, then save.

Sometimes it takes several goes of closing the app for the colours to appear, but when they do they're good.

Then I go set colours for xda premium... brown nav bar with black buttons and purple glow (what the hey!).

Then I go to make a small adjustment to paranoid prefs...say I'm not happy with the shade of blue...when I click on the blue square to open it, the colour that comes up in the colour picker is the brown I had previously picked in xda premium.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
Not even changing, but linking to the navbar button color. Light blue numbers are almost invisible on white background. And blue (or grey) bars on dark grey triangle are indistinguishable when setting the bar color to white or almost white.

PS. I use ONLY tab mode :) it's the only way to use notifications when holding the nexus in one hand.

---------- Post added at 01:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

It works fine with most apps, but NOT with paprefs itself. Try to FC the app via longpressing the back button.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
Well you cant shut down the app thats supposed to do the job. It sticks when you do it twice though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ppog:
Can anyone confirm that the long press copy/paste etc menu is always transparent?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m.is.for.michael:
Fair point, but I still get my mismatched colors issue even when I'm not editing pa preferences colours. Case in point, I just set email colours, then went to xda premium properties, and clicking on a brown navbar square opened the color chooser on a dirty grey.

Thank God you can explain it. Have been trying to figure out how to explain it (my English sucks).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bboran:
Moles i have copied your hex color edits to my properties file and restarted. Phone stuck at PA boot animation. Battery pull doesnt work either. I had to re flash the gapps. What did i wrong? I just copied your hex edits and paste them at the bottom of my /etc/paranoid/properties.conf file , saved and restarted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
yeah it has a few kinks. we'll probably rethinl the way we use properties in paprefs because right now its terrible (for us). for now this must be enough, consider it the first working draft, and over time it'll get cleaner. :cyclops:

I'm not having any flickering issues, which is great. It started to flicker when I made navbar transparent, but I changed settings on that apps navbar and it went away. Awesome job guys. Keep it up.

Glad to see color change option for clock text. Hoping to see the same for all battery options and signal icons for radio and WiFi.

You guys are awesome!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
this will all come dont worry. we need to figure out a good way to do this. it will involve some experimenting because we cant do it in the same way we color the buttons. but for now we gotta squash all those little bugs that have found their way in, color pickers behave strange sometimes, preventing alpha channel when it doesnt make sense to kill flickering, allow opacity for launcher apps, rewrite trebuchet so that pressing appdrawerbutton will not make it look so weird, etc. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
After manual editing of the file, check its permissions. Many editing programs set them to 600, but such files must have 644.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
I am sure you have your hands full. I am not worried about it, I know you guys want to make the best, most comprehensive ROM available.

I only noticed flicker after I changed navbar to transparent in Trebuchet. The flickering started to occur in the Settings app, so I changed the Settings app to force opaque black on the navbar when it is open. This eliminated the flickering.

I guess what I am trying to say is that before users complain about flickers, they should note which app they find it in and go in to edit the navbar colors on that app and set it to default and apply. This seems to force the default navbar on the app and appears to end the flickering. It worked for me, anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwvandeursen:
other question, If I replace the lockscreen with a picture different from the background of the launcher, I lose the black screen on the lockscreen that you need to pull up to see the picture and unlock the device....

not very clear, but hope you get what I am trying to convey.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tijmen:
While you're out there bug hunting and squashing can you have a look at Google Music? It's the only app that doesn't respond to navbar color changes...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bboran:
Thank you very much Dax!

Edit: I flashed but nothing happened. They are same default colors.

Edit2: Ohh ok figured it out. I have to select mol colors in preferences =)

Thanks again!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Did a quick search to see if it had been mentioned before, didn't see anything right away.

Anyways if you're a bonehead, like me, you'd probably appreciate the restore button not being right beside the delete button in the Tools section of PA :good:

D3rp, I'll b/u my b/u's to save me from myself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
This new feature is horrendously addicting. Glad that I brought my spare battery to work with me today.

Moles, is there any way to save paprefs after a full wipe and clean install? It used to not be so bad having to redo all my paprefs since I didn't change tons of stuff. Now with these colors it is going to be a pain (I have matched almost every non-black app to a color).

Is it safe to make a system TiBu of only the paprefs system app for a restore? I know we aren't supposed to restore system apps, but it would make my life SOOOO much easier...I clean flash more often than most people probably.

Either that or save this stuff to the sdcard rather than data. Is that possible?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simacai:
it looks like I have two layers navbar when i set transparency. the transparent doesn't work for me now. it works several hours early, and now it is all solid black no matter what launcher I'm using. and after pressing recent button, it flicker one time itself

since last version, I notice that there was a light line in the right of the navbar after press recent button more than two times.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
What launchers have you tried? Nova and a few others will not work properly with transparency.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emd2009:
FYI The LTE toggle is missing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simacai:
nova, apex, trebuchet and holo launcher hd. none of them works with the transparent navbar, but this afternoon after I make a clean install, apex and holo both performed normally. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] husytcs:
I don't think maguro has LTE.. think you need to ask in the toro section... correct me if i'm wrong

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
From what I have read, your options are Holo, Apex, and Trebuchet. I have only tried Trebuchet since 2.50 release, so I can't confirm. I am not 100% clear what your problem was, though. I know that I have been applying settings directly to apps through the paprefs modder and have had no issues. I have ignored the navbar color in the settings menu entirely and changed colors in the paprefs for the launcher and it worked fine.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
sure, that wont be a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
just backup your prefs via tools/backup & restore
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
the flickering is normal, as i wrote a hundred times now, android apps no not draw underneath the bars. what happens there is up do android - it will even store otherwise hidden views there, things you normally dont see. this is revealed when you make the bars transparent and the result is flickering.

one of the very few apps that can fill the full screen is trebuchet, only our trebuchet though because we hacked it. nova, apex, holo, they all cant - so transparency makes no sense there. normal apps have even less chances to do it. imagine if the settings app would fill the screen, you couldnt even touch the last menu item.

restore your properties - use trebuchet and enjoy a transparent homescreen or dont. you can use opaque colors for anything else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
maguro does not have that. the LTE toggle is there, but it must be unlocked. it should in theory be automatic but if it doesnt show but showing must be wrong. can you ask jaybob to take a look? hes the only one who can actually test.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daryelv:
Been using Apex Pro (version 1.3.3beta2) with no problems with transparency. Maybe the Play Market version has an issue with the Navbar. I guess everyone's mileage may vary. The version of Trebuchet included in the ROM works fine as well. I also have Nova Prime and it definitely does not work.

I dirty flashed from 2.06 to 2.18 to 2.5 and have the same. I think it is because of dirty flash.

how do i make the nav bar transparent
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tonyc402:
Hey guys , I just installed this rom but find it quite unstable and I dont know why. I love the features of this rom and dont want to leave it but my WIFI keeps dropping even though it shows I have a strong connection. Im running baseband XXLF1 , could that be whats affecting it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daryelv:
There's at least 3 or 4 different ways mentioned in the past 20 or 30 posts.

a.Settings->System->Navigation Bar (globally)

b.Paranoid Settings->Apps (each app individually)

c.Edit the XML noted in previous posts

d.Flash the ZIP that was posted in previous posts

Ideally...

1) Set the Global (Settings->System-Navigation Bar) to a non-transparent color. This is the "default" of what every app will use except what you override in the Paranoid Settings.

2) Set the homescreen to be transparent in the Paranoid Settings->Apps Do it for Trebuchet, Holo, or Apex (whichever homescreen you use). It will not work for Nova. You'll need to change the Alpha channel... something like #69000000 gives a really light grey over the navbar.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Sorry if this has been addressed but I have a question I have not seen anything about yet.

Does the color-per-app work in tablet mode and if so do the Time/4G/WiFi etc change to the color along with the softkeys when you mod them per app?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
try using cwm for now, some people say twrp corrupts the baseband currently. reflash your radio. check your wifi sleep policy aswell. the rom is fine, havent had any wifi drops. we're not touching your radio and all related drivers and vendor files come straight from aosp/cynanogenmod. in fact, we're running the same drivers that all existing roms in this subforum run.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
it does work in tabUI. the icons and everything else will look as usual. right now you can color buttons, bar and glow. more options will follow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
setting the global swatch to a transparent color will break the phone in two though. i would recommend not doing it. the other hints are correct, targeting the launcher is the way to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tonyc402:
Actually I am using cwm. I'll try reflashing my radio . Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Flashing a different radio won't affect your wifi. As moles mentioned, check your other settings first, if you haven't already. Sleep policy and avoiding poor connections (uncheck this).

That said, the wifi drivers for the GN aren't what the used to be, I started noticing poorer performance ~4-5 months ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sg1969:
I dirty flashed from 2.22 and not had a single systemUI crash yet. I don't think we're the only 3 people who dirty flashed, so I would really doubt there's a problem with the ROM otherwise there would be a lot more posts...

Related story: I was having multiple systemUI crashes on 2.22 and before that as well. Moles said my logcat "looks like hell" :P well I may have identified the cause, since I removed one of my widgets I have not had anymore systemui errors on 2.22, and after dirty flashing 2.50 still no crashes. Keeping my fingers crossed but 8 hours without a crash is goof (was getting 1 or 2 crashes every 2-3 hours before whenever I would come out of an app and go back to home screen)

In case you're wondering I was using something called GoogleNowBeta which is a UCCW widget. Since removing, no more problems, though of course it's too early to tell for sure. And I'm not blaming the widget itself, since I know many people use it... it could have been a corrupted file somewhere, either in the theme or in uccw, maybe a bad install, a bug, or maybe the planets were not aligned properly.

So if you are still having systemui crashes, try to remove your widgets one by one, or better yet remove them all and start adding them back slowly to see if one of them is the cause
