Hey Quinny899, this is how simple Pirating is on Android now. Just take your packagename or even the app name and google it. All the sites hosting it will show up....its sad. I know.

Here, check it out...http://www.google.com/search?q=jellybean+omega+statusbar+theme&oq=jellybean+omega+statusbar+theme&sugexp=chrome,mod=13&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#hl=en&tbo=d&sclient=psy-ab&q=com.quinny898.omegatheme.statusbar.jellybean&oq=com.quinny898.omegatheme.statusbar.jellybean&gs_l=serp.3...1442.1442.0.1912.1.1.0.0.0.0.203.203.2-1.1.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.2.YfbVkqB4Ivg&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&fp=85b83425e9918ea9&bpcl=38897761&biw=1280&bih=631

If you want your app removed from the sites, email them. This is a good time to scare the crap out of someone who is pirating applications :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Actually, most of the sites on there are linking to the play store thankfully. Though, your Google might be different. If you see file hosting sites with it on, please tell me and I'll spam the cr*p out of them
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
No problem. I will check for you real soon. Its an easy thing to do. Most of the site owners say sorry and will remove the file instantly. If they are so scared, why do they do it in the first place??? I dont get it lol.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
I think they do it purely because they feel they can without getting caught. However the big sites (ones now dead like applanet) were shut down and fined loads, which shows they can and do get caught. Thanks anyway :)

excuse me dev, can you update the free version which always crash everytime i use it? people say it good apps so im tried to use it, so i want to know​
[Android Apps and Games] moneymike55:
Make sure you have the accessibility option checked and that Omega StatusBar is enabled in your system accessibility settings (clicking the accessibility checkbox in osb will lead to it). The global notification option is on by default so they should show up after enabling accessibility but if not then try turning osb off and back on

Does the statusbar turn off after a while or can you not open the settings without it FCing? The first case is typical for older devices with low memory but if it crashes right away then you might be using a custom density. Are you running a rooted ROM or stock?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
I think your accessibility is having issues with 4.2. The app's installed but nothing is here:
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
Yup... Just another random ICS/JB bug that is slowly ruining many apps that rely on accessibilities. Pretty much iof two apps have the same type of accessibility, one will get blocked out. Stupid isn't it? Worked fine in GB and Honeycomb.
[Android Apps and Games] oddie95:
every time i want to open this apps, its always FC, i dunno why?

mine using Samsung Galaxy Ace Gingerbread 2.3.4 and rooted device, and i guess im not the only one who get this issues, many people who gave review on Play Store said same thing.

ah and let me add something about what you disscus with another user about piracy that comes on internet,

some of people (like me) like to upload the .apk cause for back-up, cause soon or later there will be an updated that become creepy/eat more memory that killing Low-Device user like me.. so we can download the older version and install it again like before, and i dont think about getting commercial about it,

but i dont know what another people think about piracy. back then im trying to find this apk that uploaded before 11-11-2012. i think older version dont have force close issue, but bad luck i dont find anyone...

thats what i wanna say i hope you can view this problem for another point :D

[Android Apps and Games] sadmaker:
Great app. Running it on my Droid x2 (eclipse v2.3 rom). Only a slight issue: when i turn my phone, sometimes it takes as much as several seconds to activate the app over my stock status bar? Also, sometimes it will randomly switch to the stock status bar and then back again. Is there a fix for this, or are there permissions i need to set?
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
For the flashing of the stock statusbar to omega statusbar is the service rebooting. Basically, your device is trying to kill the service that runs the statusbar, but omega statusbar is told to reboot. That way it will never completely stop working, but pause for a few seconds to reboot. How is your device memory and ram?

The landscape to portrait mode could take a few seconds as the statusbar service has to check the new width of the statusbar and the screen orientation. I can try to speed up the check for the next update :good:
[Android Apps and Games] sadmaker:
RAM is steady between 120-150mb free at all times. Memory is a bit low as my anadroids take up a ton of room on my SD card. I can probably clear a few of those out as there are some I'll likely never get back to. If I can find a solution to this, I can stick to my gingerbread roms, which run a heck of alot smoother than ICS roms on this phone, but keep my ICS look (ADW launcher, holo locker).

BTW, Im loving how little RAM this app uses while running. I tried a different one before finding this one, and it was an absolute RAM hog. Excellent job.

Do notifications work any better?

Last time I tried this, before the previous update, notifications didn't come through or were delayed by quite a while. On a HTC one S, stock 4.0.4 with sense V4.1 at the time, now on 4.1.1 and sense V4+, no task killer or anything installed to kill the app.
[Android Apps and Games] mDroidd:
Just tried the latest version, and indeed, notifications are delayed.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.2 JB
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
Dont forget to restart the notification accessibility then restart OSB. Technically, if you do this through the statusbar settings panel, all you have to do is restart the notification accessibility since the statusbar will reboot on its own.

To do this, launch the Omega statusbar settings. Click the Accessibility toggle to launch the system settings. Click on Omega statusbar. Turn the accessibility off, then back on. Click "settings" at the bottom of the system accessibility menu for omega statusbar. Leave the omega statusbar settings menu by clicking home forcing the statusbar to reboot.

This should fix any notification problems. The last update, all I changed was the drawables and popup menu. The notification methods are still the same ;)
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
Thanks! That was one of my main goals with omega statusbar since both the other statusbar apps hog your memory! I made OSB as light as possible and programmatically created any view I could. I definitely agree Gingerbread is way smoother than ICS. Kind of tempting to flash my NS4G back to it!
[Android Apps and Games] sadmaker:
Agreed, as beautiful as ICS and JB are, just to glitchy for my DX2 to run on a daily basis.

BTW, I figured out my issue with the app taking a moment to start...user error. My holo locker was set to "disable status bar". I unchecked it and all is well thus far. I does it for a moment when Im getting in and out of apps, but Im not too worried about that. Excellent, excellent work, especially for a free app. Thanks again.
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
To me, ICS and JB are all show but no go. They dont perform as they should, but they sure look good! 2.3 was a perfect balance between looks and performance in my opinion...but that depends on your device ;).

That delay you were talking about is the receiver in OSB that checks to see if the statusbar is visible or not. I am going to add an option that allows you to speed up the check, but that also uses a little more memory. I currently have a check running every second or so, but some devices can definitely handle a faster check. Once the check is faster, then the delay between the real statusbar and OSB will be non existent :D
[Android Apps and Games] iammodo:
Giving this a go

Thanks! Tell us how it works or what you think.
[Android Apps and Games] iammodo:
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but its not displaying any notifications.
[Android Apps and Games] mDroidd:
You're not doing anything wrong..

If you leave the statusbar on for a while, do they appear anyway then?

Some are experiencing delay instead of no notifications...

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.2 JB
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
Sort of...

Launch the OSB settings, hit the Accessibility toggle switch. It will launch the accessibility screen for OSB, then hit the toggle switch to turn it on and off.

Go back yo OSB settings, then reboot the statusbar by turning it on and off.

That should fix the accessibility service for the notifications.

EDIT: Also, are those notifications recent? If they did not occur while omega statusbar was running, then they wont be shown on omega statusbar. Just making sure ;)
[Android Apps and Games] yeahthatswhatsup:
I have used this for a while on my HTC One X, it sucked my battery dry. That was crazy.. Besides that i have a couple of mayor problems.

I used to have ICS on my device but now i have JB, the notification center has a bigger clock bar on top. And the OSB is still showing on top of it pretty damn annoying.

I also see that none of my notifications are disappearing when read, and sometimes not even showing at all.

When i toggle of notification counters, they just keep showing up.

Are there solutions for any of those problems?
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
As stated throughout the thread many times, there is NO fix for the JB overlay with the clock. It is impossible and cant be fixed due to a security error. If you turn off the battery percentage text, it will save you a ton of battery.
[Android Apps and Games] Taine0:
Hey, I really like this app but having trouble showing the notifications in ICS and jb, so I had the idea of trying to alter the layout. XML so it just overlays half the status bar wherethe system icons are while the original status bar notifications are still there (obviously this would only work if the overlay status bar are the same color.) But everything I tried it just overplayed a black image onto the notifications. This is more a message to the dev, is there any way to make the overlay have transparent elements over the normal status bar? I think it'd be one really easy way to fix notification error for people just wanting to theme system icons. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
That is a pretty good question actually and a good idea! Unfortunately, you cant make a transparent overlay over the statusbar for some reason. It will just be black. WHat you can do, is alter the xml so it only covers the right side of the statusbar. I used to have an idea for replacing stock parts of the statusbar, such as the clock, but then decided to make a full statusbar.

I can look into and test out a half statusbar overlay so the stock notifications are used also ;)
[Android Apps and Games] mDroidd:
How are you doing the complete overlay anyway? My overlays always stop at the navigation bar and status bar...

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.2 JB
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
You mean, getting the overlay actually "over" the statusbar? If so...

You have to use these 2 window LayoutParams for the WindowManager of your overlay.

WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY

WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_IN_SCREEN
[Android Apps and Games] Taine0:
Making it cover half of the status bar would be ideal, which part in the overlay.Xml would I have to alter to achieve this ? I tried quite a few changes to the gravity and status bar width but none really worked too well!

Thanks.

I have been getting a ton of support emails about notifications with the statusbar.

Please follow these simple steps to receive notifications on Omega StatusBar...

1. Open Omega StatusBar settings

2. Click the accessibility on/off switch. It will open the accessibility settings.

3. Turn the accessibility service off then back on.

4. Then go back to Omega StatusBar settings to turn omega status bar back on.

We have released a few updates the past few days which bring further support for CDMA devices. While the statusbar and network bars are woking 100% on all of our devices, we are still getting TONS of reports of force closing issues. We believe it is related to the new network script.

Can you guys please test the new update. If it fails, post a logcat so we can figure out what the heck is going on. Makes no sense!

I downloaded and installed this app and love it. But i became a little nervous when Armour for Android pegged it as a risk. I went in and read why and among the usual things, it reports that it looks at my contacts and may or may not be using the information in it. That concerns me. Does anyone else have any information on this?

Just a side note: Armour for Android doesn't freak out at all the apps. It's pretty good and I've looked into the ones it sometimes complains about so I don't think it's the app being to fussy.
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
Thanks for trying.

And its not a "risk" like the scanner is reporting. It is StartApp. Places a search icon on your desktop rather then push notifications or banner ads in the notification tray. Perfectly safe and does not read your contact as you think. The Network is actually advertised on the XDA portal and used by thousands of devs.
[Android Apps and Games] A Dev@Calsto:
Sorry for all of the updates! We are just trying to fix the network bar issues with CDMA and GSM. Then many people started to report a force close issue, so i have no idea whats happening.

Issue with Lenovo K900

Hi, just got a Lenovo K900, running 4.2.1 (International). Huge phone, 1080p screen.

Everything works, except for Omega Statusbar. And I just LOVE Omega Statusbar with the iPhone theme (not a fan of the stock status bar look at all).

The problem is, Omega Statusbar (paid version) covers about third of the stock status bar, and it's kind of squashed, with a warning triangle flashing on the left.

See attached screenshot. I haven't applied the iPhone theme yet in the screenshot, but it's the same with or without it.

Can you guys figure out what's causing it?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] mDroidd:
I think I know what the problem is.

I think the guys at Calsto Development (the developers of Omega Statusbar) set the statusbar height to 25dp.

Now if you have a significantly high density (pixels per inch), 25dp may be smaller them the statusbar height (exactly your case).

I'm gonna search for the dpi (density per inch) for your device, and if it's indeed what I was thinking, I'll send the patch to Calsto Development.

Edit: YEP, your device has ~400 ppi density, while my Nexus 4 has ~320 ppi (which is normal I guess).

Edit 2: these guys need to add a xxhdpi folder!

[Android Apps and Games] MacGuy2006:
Thanks, mDroidd!

This makes sense, of course. (It also makes me feel a little better that it would apply to all 400+ppi screens, since the K900 is kind of unusual, here at least, phone.)

If you would like me test something, I'd be happy to :)
