Change the dpi to 270 and everything fits perfectly. I'd suggest an app like LCD Density Modder Pro so you can apply a permanent market fix. For the overlay on the dock I'd say turn on Tint AB and put the AB Scale to 1. Doesn't completely get rid of the overlay but it definitely makes it less noticeable like in my screenshot.

Please read this post:

HCFroyd has a point our phone will not be developed forever. I'm guessing after the realease of the S III we don't have much time left. Lets try and do as much as we can while we can!"
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] deathnotice01:
i have another phone with me here,

a HTC Wizard one of the first windows mobile smartphones which was released mid 2007- early 2008,

they have a forum here in xda but sad to say the last development for a custom rom was on 2010,

so the forum is now but a ghost land with less than 1 post per 5 days or so with no devs left working on the device,

my point is a time will come that SGY will also be like HTC wizard,

turn into a old end device and the forum will be like a ghost town,

we do realize this and the best thing we can do it to just have fun with our device,

develop things for the sake of sharing ideas to others, collaborating minds of millions of SGY owners,

i love my phone and its the first phone i bought with my first salary so it has a sentimental value

cheers to all SGY owners :D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Kousthubha Kumar:
Exactly..I dont see the point in arguing with cooked/themed stuff..different people have various choices..some people like MIUI,some ICS, and some stock etc..whats wrong in that? There are pathetic people who dont contribute to the forums instead they criticize people who are trying to do some good to the forums...What we can do utmost is to deny those negative comments,take the constructive comments and move ahead!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] kurotsugi:
I hope no one use HCFroyd's statement as an apology for developing a mere themed rom.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] irfanbagus:
i don't have problem with themed rom as long as they give proper credit to original creator. i never ask credit for my work but someone did. the new trend in our forum, a lot new themed rom don't give credit to original creator. but that's only 'small' problem. bigger problem is a lot of new rom released with too much bug. if you experience user, you could solve that problem easily. but how about someone new ? please remember this forum become reference for other forum or non member. today i see in other forum, someone asking for help because his phone brick after flash themed custom rom from this forum.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] kurotsugi:
we couldn't expect those wannabe devs to solve their rom problems. personally I doubt if they're know how to properly customize a rom. most of them only replace the apps, and change the ui_print stuff in updater script. in most cases they don't even know how to modify an apk since they modify their systemUI and framework-res via UOT kitchen. this will surely brings problems to new member or inexperienced one here.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] MarcoToo:
It will surely come to an end, but the S3 will not kick the Y out of xda. It would need pretty long legs to kick a low-end device. :D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Kousthubha Kumar:
Well, that's why we have the support general section, faq and q &a.. The bugs I saw in the threads are very minor and mostly fcs which are mostly accompanied by fixes from the dev.. The bricking errors are mostly due to wrong method of flashing and no thread in dev section causes bricks otherwise.. Regarding the credit thing, yeah some people may not give proper credit but they didn't just post the content as it is right? They did some work and stuff but it's respect that matters and they won't get it by modding stuff.. But I really appreciate the way amal das cooked and added the themes, apps.. It surely involves some definite time and effort and remember something is better than nothing.. We must appreciate their effort to upload and share them for nothing !
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] I.AM.H3RO:
You have a good point hitme!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] static28:
as for me I do not see anything wrong when people want to share something. its just that other users tend to envy what they made and then criticize the creator/moder/chef.

(that's what I noticed here at SGY forum)

BUT THIS CRITICISM DOES NOT EXIST ON ANY OTHER FORUMS. i wonder why? :(
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] CarlDeanCatabay:
I totally agree on this. And if these people uses custom ROMS as base ROM, themed it and added some apps that totally boost the UI and not the performance or to cut it short decorated the rom instead of adding new features or tweaks, why not release it as an OPTIONAL THEME UPDATE or OPTIONAL APP PACKAGE and not NEW DEV ROM thing?

Don't get me wrong but I do appreciate hard work. Themeing is developing but please keep it in mind that SKINNING is different from BUILDING. Skinning is theming and building means you start from STOCK ROM WITH NO TWEAKS and you DEVELOP/ADD/MODIFY the ROM to have new features -and that being true, I see no reason for a THEMED CUSTOM ROM to be LABELED ROM DEV NEW.

I have experience in building a custom rom, I have a Motorola A1200 Ming way back and what I did is I integrated A1600 and A1800 features to A1200 firmware. I didn't use and custom rom available and gave it a new look.

My point is, you don't label a rom whose base is a custom as *developed or *new. That sucks! How come you use others ROM and themed it + added some apps? and call it developed? It should be skinned or themed or optional update. You got to be kidding to think you developed it when you skinned it. And that number of thanks you get prolongs your day dreaming of being a developer when you are just a skinner/themer.

NOTE:

The above statement may not be comfortable for your eyes to read but hey, it's true. If you're no developer, Well this post sucks. Truth hurts. :cool:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] ronnieryan:
We need a Steve Jobs in SGY..

He was not a developer, but a motivator:p
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] kurotsugi:
steve 'jobs' (lol)

please don't think that me (or some other user) hate the rom development. nope...we only get tired of those who claimed themself as a dev but in reality know almost nothing in rom development.

1. these people potentially risk other user for bricking their device.

2. you can't expect a good rom from them. in most cases you'll only get a half assed rom with a lot of bug.

I was saying that statement to ensure that we get a rom with good quality from a real dev. i'm sorry if this words might sound harsh.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] anasdcool71:
You do have a point, man. They needn't be called devs, but they are making something! You can't just expect someone to just create a very good rom like chobits or creeds. They have to start from the base, making small mods, and when they become good at it, then they can start making bigger mods, and so on. You won't understand the studies of a university unless you've completed the one of school.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] 21071992:
I don't understand what you mean, SIII is too expensive, low & mid-range devices still remain ;)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] irfanbagus:
you chose wrong example :p

i am not too 'old' in this forum, but afair i was already here when chobits released. it's not themed rom and it's relatively stable even in first release. nobody can stop you from making/learning custom rom, but release to forum is another matter. if the mod only themes (which a lot new dev did) we already have themes sub forum. and if it's only fix small problem in other custom rom, why not just create patch. and is it really hard to says if he/she make it based other rom ?

i don't claim if i am a dev, but i do share some of my small modifications in this forum. before i share something, i need 2-4 days (in my spare time) to review my modification, make sure every know problems already fixed. most of my mod is low level so one mistake can brick your phone forever. i do wild and crazy thing with my own device. but when i decide to share it, i do very very carefully, because if i did something wrong it will effect someone else phone. few days ago i almost pull back my shared mod because someone report my mod make his phone restart. fortunately i can fix it.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] kurotsugi:
learning and sharing is a different things...if they already have some skill about theming stuff they could share their work as a theme.

1. it has less risk for brick

2. easier for them to upload

3. easier to apply to any rom

please don't see me as someone who doesn't like rom developer. I don't mind if anyone ask me about rom development. I have made a thread about customizing a rom and anyone could use that as a starting point in their study. I've also helped several user developing their rom and some of them have published their rom in this forum. believe me, I want to see more rom developer in this forum. but I don't want to see a half assed rom with a lot of bug and complains from other user.

PS: if you consider about reputation stuff you'll understand that I'm saying this for their good. anyone will see someone who comes with a half assed rom as a fake dev. I don't wanna see that happen (again) to anyone here. if they could restrain themself a little bit until they could make a good rom, they could get better response and more appreciation of their work.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] buzzkillerzz:
Question

@all

can you please tell us which roms and their developer, that you do not consider as part of SGY development? So we can clearly differentiate it from "real" development to just cooked or themed..

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esteband:
My Fiancee and I both got Kindle Fires last February, and while she's kept hers stock, I've rooted mine and tried out a few different ROMS. This weekend, I used her Kindle for a bit, and I noticed how quickly the screen responds when you rotate it. I didn't time it, but I'd say it takes a fraction of a second. On mine, which is currently running Hellfire Kindle Sandwich (5/13 Build), it takes a little more than 2 seconds. It feels very sluggish.

After I noticed this, I tried overclocking, but it didn't do much.

Next, I tried a few more ICS ROMs, like energy and gedeROM. Same deal. Then I thought, maybe ICS is too much of a load on the hardware, so I tried the Gingerbread Recovery Branch CM7 ROM. Still, same thing.

I like the responsiveness of stock, but I also want to stay on ICS, which I've really gotten accustomed to over the past month. Is such slow screen rotation just a fact of life when running ICS on the KF, or are there some settings I can dig into which will improve its performance?

I'm also curious about those of you who are running ICS without overclocking. What kind of screen rotation times are y'all getting? Is 2+ seconds normal?

[HTC Wildfire S] Gloris:
hello, just wondering if there is actually an easy way to restore a nandroid backup including ext4 and data2sd?

basically, i am at the moment testing out a whole load of roms to see which one i like best.

but after doing fresh install, and having to reinstall all my user data and all my apps again every time....it takes a while.

is there actually a good practise procedure for completely restoring from a nandroid backup so that the phone will boot up and be exactly the same as it was when the backup was taken?

i ask because when i've tried this before, i always end up with either missing apps, or corrupt apps that result in loads of errors and fc's?

i have tried wiping and then using restore in cwm.

i have also then tried re-flashing data2sd....

always end up with errors.

if not, no big deal, i'm used to re-doing everything from scratch with this phone anyways, just thought that it might make it easier to switch between roms while i;m testing things out :s
[HTC Wildfire S] Thrawed:
Nandroid should backup and restore sd-ext. Try reinstalling your data2sd script straight after the restore.
[HTC Wildfire S] Gloris:
yes, that's what i mean...it does says it's restores ext4, but when i boot the phone, my apps are not there.

if i resinstall data2sd, they are still missing :s
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
if you avoid wiping sd-ext(which usually doesn't happen),you wont need to restore your apps again and again......try wiping stuff separately....

Another way is using TWRP touch recovery........it doesn't wipe sd-ext at all,even if you. goose to wipe it(a bug)
[HTC Wildfire S] Gloris:
yeah, but what happens for me then is that the apps are all visible under my apps list on the phone, but as soon as i go to launch any of them, it brings up an error telling me "this app is not installed on your phone", or similar.

actually given up on the whole 2nd partition thing at the moment.

have been using the latest lewaos since last week, it's amazingly fast, pretty stable compared to most rom's i've used, but as soon as i have to update (which they release weekly updates for this rom), if i have data2sd or link2sd or any of that jazz, i get the same problems as if i had installed the rom fresh (i.e. missing apps, or "appas not installed" problem.

so for now i have no 2nd partition, and i'm just installing as many apps as possible to the sd card, and use some options in titanium backup to move dalvik into rom etc etc.

will see how it works out on friday when the new update is released, i don't hold out much hope though.

new job end of the month, so once i get paid properly i'm getting an iphone4s, 16gb storage, runs fast and smooth, no more messing about, i'll finally have a phone that works as it's supposed to :)

really genuinely can not wait!

Im on ics bootloader v4 unl and stock kernal.

I have my original cwm backup of my tab from a year ago.

Q- Will it restore over what is on my tab now..?

Or do I have to use the other tools.

Just though that would be lot easier.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
No. You will make a mess of things and cause a lot of headaches.

For a couple of reasons;

1. It's an HC rom and such, and will not work with the current V4 ICS bootloader.

2. It will probably mess up some partitions.

If you want to restore it back, you'll need to go back to HC with an HC bootloader. Even then, I would put the chances at 50/50.
[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
Thanks, glad I ask. Just learning some stuff.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
No Problem. Better to ask the questions, before making a fatal mistake. Especially these days with the new bootloaders.
[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
Is that because if I restore my org cwm backup like you said it's HC and HC Bootloader and my nand backup does not write over the bootloader.

So I would end up with HC and ICS bootloader and that combo does not work.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Pretty much the scenario ;)

As we can be pretty sure 10.1 will never see jellybean, at least from samsung, would it make sense to start working on something like this for the tab 10.1? I'm hardly capable of doing such a thing but devs in here might be interested in looking into it. After this thing gets ics, we might as well have as many options as possible for future development.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] t%20g:
+1x1000 for your idea,

I would really love to see true dual booting in my tab10.1-3G

If this can be done by some dev's here:

Well, we can boot some other OS's like Ubuntu, Tizen, etc without hurting android. *Cough* I doubt windows8ARM

BTW, my tab doesn't have SDCard slot for custom partitions!

So, can the internal 16GB memory be repartitioned safely and make uboot to boot custom kernel+rootFs from newly created patition?

(I've successfully dual booted my N900(maemo5+Nemo) with uboot, its awesome)

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] typhoonikan:
Oh fantastic!

It worked.

For anyone else who stumbles across this thread, what I did was...

In google chrome settings via a computer, There is a hyperlink to google dashboard. Go there and down to Chrome Sync, I reset and deleted chrome data. (Don't worry, it doesn't delete your bookmarks, picasa, or gmail). Then it reset Chrome so that it was not "encrypt all data" and instead is now "encrypt with password", like you said.

Problem fixed.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] typhoonikan:
In chrome settings, disable syncing to whichever account you want to let go. Then sign back in with the correct account.

Then, under the syncing options, you can chose what exactly to sync; Browsing history, extensions, bookmarks, etc.

So, yes. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:

Android and Desktop Chrome Sync

I know this is a little old, but I found this thread after having sync problems as well. So I thought I'd post the fix.

I assume you are using chrome on both devices.

you can have encryption on everything and still sync across devices, but you have to have the encryption set the same on both, and use either the passphrase or the google account option, but again it must be the same on both (all?) devices.

I failed to change the setting on my phone when on my desktop browser I reset syncing to encrypt everything, not just passwords.

On your chrome browser for android go into "settings" then tap account name at top then "sync" then "encryption" then match whatever you did on the desktop, and everything should work again.

there's really no reason not to encrypt everything IMHO
