Unfortunately, I believe the answer to both of your questions is no. Unless you mean the lockscreen wallpaper, then its under settings -> lockscreen, but as far as the home screen, its either white, or black.

And btw , Is it possible to disable the search button on htc hd7? Its so annoying.

+1 about the background not being changeable...yet. But the system is second to none for rotation speed and efficiency, allowing for the quick portrait mode for accessing the address bar. It shouldn't be a problem if you are wiling to accept it. On other systems, yes, it would be a serious issue. But with WP7, the speed of rotation and efficiency of it all...not an issue in the least for those willing to accept it.

I agree with Marty about the address bar, honestly, it would probably take up screen space... And no, can't disable buttons...

[REQ] Bluetooth / WiFi Slider for lock screen?

Hello All,
Just wondering if the request above is possible?
To clarify, I was wondering if it was possible to have a slider on the lock screen to turn on / off Bluetooth / Wifi, rather than unlocking the device then using an app or comm manager to switch it on/off and then locking the phone again etc.
Maybe it can be something that can be added to Cookies Home Tab Options?
Cheers in advance
Great idea!​Vote 4!​Best on perfectly Co0kies Home Tab​
Any thoughts....?
Hi Just wondering if anyone actually thinks this maybe possible? I'll PM cookies developers directly and see what they think?

[Resolved] [Q] Does anyone know what application is showing in my notification bar ?

Hi,
I'm running a stock rom from an HK phone and there's a new icon in the notification bar i have never seen.
www[dot]monsterup.com/upload/1334936579149.png
(I'm new so i can't add the picture)
Does someone know what app is that or what does it mean ?
Thank you.
Unfortunately, it looks like your link isn't working.
Ah yes, you must add WWW to the link.
Hmm, interesting.
If I had to guess (and I do, as it seems to not be a "standard" Android icon), I'd be willing to bet its Rotation (or orientation) lock. Meaning, that the phone will stay in whatever orientation its locked to (portrait or landscape) no matter what position the phone is put in.
Oh yes ! You are right !
Ahah, with another phone, there wasn't this icon.
Thank you very much Ninmeister.

How to change the Settings Wallpaper...

I have a custom background on the lock screen, home screen, and stock messaging screen (the one with the chat bubbles).
However, within the phone's setting menu the theme wallpaper is being used.
Honestly, I'm starting to feel like the option to change that background is right under my nose. I. Just. Can't. See. It!
Please help me.
I'm using a Galaxy Note 5 from T-Mobile.

You can't not change the settings background without theme or a root mod...in other words it's not a setting within stock settings
Ugh. That's unfortunate. Especially with some themes putting discordant backgrounds in the settings menu. Such an awful tease.
Do you know how if it's possible to make our own themes?

Question How can I remove this from home Screen?

Wondering if someone can please help me to remove this circle area. I don't really want that on home screen. I could rather use widget.
It is not possible without root or another launcher.
Home Settings - At A Glance

Yes you can, this has been posted and explained here before not too long ago. You need to be rooted and if I'm correct use the xposed framework

Exactly , I was about to post that screenshot to ask lol. Just received 7 pro a hour ago and was setting it up. Thanks bud.
As an alternative, you can just set up another home screen without At A Glance.
Lawnchair or nova your best bet
I used Niagara for a couple of days and paid for the full version this morning. Love the 'empty' screen!
Please tell me how to remove this information from the locked screen? a flashlight also appears instead of the date ((very annoying. There are no lock screen settings in AOSP.

Are you using a Pixel 7?
Your best bet for fixing the flashlight issue is to probably install a Pixel Launcher, stock or modded and customize your At A Glance settings. As for the lock screen weather, not so sure you can turn that one off.

I installed the standard pixel, turned off everything that was possible, the flashlight disappeared, but I can’t remove the date and weather. phone pixel 7 pro
Home Settings >> At a Glance >> See more features >> Disable Weather.
Unfortunately, I am not sure how to remove the date. My apologies there.

It was the same on my 4XL. It's nuts that they put that on the homescreen. Every morning when I turn the phone on, I have to swipe left to get to the homescreen I want to use. I don't want to root, or change the launcher. Back in the day, I was able to choose the homescreen page I wanted.
