Is there a way to fix the status bar if you flash center clock mod and now the status bar is blank?

Edit, after a reboot it was blank still, then a notification came through for app updates and the status bar came back. Now I rebooted again and its blank again. Seems to stay blank till a notification comes

+1

I had 1.5 running fine, and the 3.7v extended battery was at 100%, but after flashing to 1.7 this morning it read 93% then dropped to 88%. Had usb cable connected the whole time, and for an hour afterwards, with no wifi, data, or anything turned on, it now reads 83%. Reset battery stats, but 83% seems to be max it charges to?

Still, loving this ROM!

Im having the same problem, but it happened when I flashed the AOSP ICS theme. What ive been doing is just taking a screenshot to get the bar back. then just delete it

Edit:

Also @eschelon, I cant get voice search to launch with a double tap on home. I had S Voice Frozen when flashing this. For now I have it set up with Apex launcher to launch voice search when it's on the home screen already, but I think double tap from anywhere would be better. Do you have any idea how to get it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cartmants1:
eschelon that fix worked perfectly! Thanks for all your effort with this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wctaylor79:
Worked for me.. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
You need S Voice to be alive and active. It can't be frozen since the S Voice apk is what partially controls the double tap of the home button. If you freeze or remove S Voice, the double tap to open GNow won't work.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skippy38:
Hey everyone you can take this for what it is worth. I am asking the mod to kill all post reference IMO and kernels of any sort.

Here's why. Esh and his bad a$$ team of ROM gods have stated over and over they use stock kernel. they will add a kernel later. With all these questions of issues on devices with a non stock kernel you are adding more issues that are superfluous, to the ROM itself. if you have kernel specific question then direct them toward rootwiz. As this is where you got the kernel from. Not here. Esh has stated over and over the battery process of system use is huge when you add in the kernel; he doesn't know or even runs. It clouds issues for everyone. And takes away precious time from his kitchen. And let us remember he does this $hit for free.

Lastly use the freaking SEARCH button

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] biff6789:
Not exactly. While E did ask people to run the ROM naked to eliminate all the variables, he has never stated that IMO's kernel is to blame for the Android System usage. Nor have I ever seen him ever say anything bad about IMO's kernel. Just that this ROM doesn't include it. He has never asked anybody to NOT run it either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fyyzer:
Not having that problem here. I went to Block Settings while on someone's contact and it allowed me to set a call block and a message block on them. I backed out of there opened up the contact again and the settings appeared to have stuck. I then turned off the block with no FC's.

Edit: Confirmed FC for Message Block. You can set a call block but not a message block from within Contacts. Message block appears to work from the Messaging App but can't be sure and that's not reflected in the Contacts/Block Settings screen for that person.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NotATreoFan:
This is true, but if I were to remove the posts talking exclusively about the kernel or battery life, the thread would be almost 20 pages lighter. For the record, I am not the Mod asked to remove these posts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skippy38:
Brother at what point did I state any of your rebuttal statements? I I never stated to speak for E. Or his team. Again all kernel questions should be directed to the post in which you got them as is proper forum protocol. I never stated for anyone not to run it. I again I state this is not the proper location to reference or ask questions that directly relate to the device operating function.

I don't weigh in to these type of things often, but my take on the matter is that the ROM is not kernel specific, nor the kernel ROM specific; discussion makes sense in each thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] biff6789:
Your exact words were, and I quote: "Esh has stated over and over the battery process of system use is huge when you add in the kernel"

This statement is completely false as E has never once stated such a thing.

Not trying to pick a fight, and I am not trolling and I do not disagree with your philosophy that kernel discussion should be in a kernel thread.

Here is the purpose of my last comment: People may show up in the thread and read your statement that I just quoted and think that E frowns on custom kernels and has stated that they cause high batt drain when he has never stated either.

Havent updated to 1.7 yet but is anyone else seeing that notifications LEDs, purple and red LED, is now constant instead of pulsing? My text message, blue, still pulses like on stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skippy38:
Understand, " let me clear up the statement you ref. I never stated or implied anything remotely that kernels are bad or that I speak for E and his team. The statement references a comment about the process that are envoled in the system usage within the OS. the kernel is directly tied to the process. When people post pics of battery usage and ask why is this running out of juice so fast, and I am running XXXX kernel. the functions within this graph are huge but portray a modicum of information. If that is why a dump was requested by E. I reference this as the expectation of the user is that the team will know their issues based on a pic and a kernel they (devs) don't USE. I am just tired of seeing the same thing in 325 pages. The if you have kernel question go to the maker. I would you post in XXXX kernel post " hey can you fix the YYYY Rom I'm using?"

That's all I'm saying. I'll shut my mouth on this and just Wade through the flotsam.....

I have read the last 5 pages or so and haven't seen anything this for 1.7 so I am going to stick my neck and post........

The double-tap home button now brings up S-voice for me but using the button on my Jawbone to get into voice dialing still brings up Google, would like S voice if possible. I have looked at all the google apps and see nowhere to clear a default for voice dialing, if someone can tell where that is it would be wonderful, not sure its a bug in the ROM as I did NOT wipe (except for cache and davlik) before flashing from 1.6. Thanks and please do not kill me if I missed something, if I did I humbly put out my wrists for a slap.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
We're working on that. We're tying different things to get GNow to pull up over bluetooth, but nothing has worked yet. But if you clear app defaults then the double tap on home function to bring up either GNow or S Voice should be working fine, just not over bluetooth yet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nohbdyshero:
Thanks for the quick reply I figured that was the case and yes the double-tap home does work fine so there's that to use for now. In the car I use a holder that puts the phone in easy reach so its not a deal breaker for me :). Appreciate all the work

While we are on this subject. Neither S Voice or GNow work particularly well with BT voice dialing. It is like I'm speaking in a foreign language. the contacts that come up are consistently incorrect. Prior to you putting GNow on the rom, I had been using the old ICS voice.dialer.apk on my S3 which for BT voice dialing is much more accurate. The first time I would do voice dialing over BT, there would be a pop up to select either voice dialer or S Voice, I would choose voice dialer and check the box use always (similar to the choice you have now for S Voice or GNow).Is it possible to add voice dialer to the choices?

I flashed 1.7 and like the previous versions, its working great, very smooth, good battery life and no gps issues (never have had any on this rom). Great job and thanks.

OK so this has to be the dumbest yet probably easiest question to answer. Where in app manager, settings do I go to clear app defaults so I can set double tap option?

Gaww this makes me feel stupid. Lol

I've looked at voice search and S Voice but neither are set for default. Maybe its because I'm on 1.6

Downloading 1.7 now and saw that was an option. So I'm assuming I'll be answering my own question after flashing :)

Thanks guys on the best ROM. Keep it up!

Also my signature below says SPH-L710

Because I changed the build.prop for google wallet. Easy edit that makes wallet work!

Idk why others go through such trouble when you can simply change the BP?

An honest question:

Why isn't the OP a recognized developer? I remember him all the way back when he was working on Windows Mobile with MightyMike. Then he made a large number of commits on the svn for the Thunderbolt with the rest of Team Synergy and now his thread here will be at 350,000 thread views within 3 weeks since its release. At that rate it will be pushing a million by the end of month two. This is now the most popular thread in the Verizon S3 section and it's one of the youngest so that's saying something.

He is very fast with fixes and always kind to everyone in his responses as well. Just this morning a few of us has SMS issues and he had a fix posted within 10 minutes. I've never seen such dedication from a dev.

Meanwhile there are devs all over XDA who routinely insult their users, threaten to close their threads if someone dares to ask for an ETA, and are generally all around jerks. And yet they are recognized devs. I don't get it.

Was messing with Google Now and noticed the before mentioned battery hit from maps keeping track of where you are at. So I went in and cleared data from Google Search and a couple other items and also did force closes on the apps. Put the phone down for an hour or so and came back to find Gallery had now drained about 40-45% of the battery in that time and was the second biggest draw on the battery after the screen. Anybody else see this behavior or have any ideas on how to stop it? I did a search on "gallery" in this thread and didn't see any mention of it.

I am not a Mod over at Rootz, but I know they act upon GPL complaints in the same way we do. It is most likely that someone looking to build from your base went looking for the source to the kernel you don't have yet, and reported the thread when he didn't find it.
