@eyahl... maybe he's asking to change the background for the app drawer, and not the wallpaper...? If you look at the attached pic carefully, you'll realize its not the homescreen, but the app drawer, which has probably been modified in whatever garish looking ROM that is...
Although the other possibility is that the app drawer is completely transparent, in which case your suggestion is perfect . But i doubt that, because you can't see any other homescreen elements through the background, which would have been visible if the app drawer had been transparent (clock, other widgets, etc), so i think my hunch above is correct. (Also, I can't believe that the OP managed to flash an entire custom ROM without having the slightest idea regarding changing the wallpaper...wouldn't that be something!! )

Well, I've seen a lot things here I couldn't believe..
But I think you are right.
Anyways, changing the app drawers background is not that easy if it's not featured by the ROM.

You could use another launcher. Also try alt app draw (search the forum)
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
yeah you should stick with well known roms where you can get support, but there is a problem that needs to be solved so try pressing menu from within the app drawer to see if anything pops up , or it could be somewhere in the settings, it has to exist somewhere, if not consider another launcher

First off thanks to everyone from the various SGS forums for this, especially to fear2142.
This is the Touchwiz4 Launcher from the SGS2 ported to work with Galaxy Tabs running a DeOdexed Gingerbread based build (or latest Overcome based on GB).
Changes I made for the Tab:
Fixed XML's to support larger screen
Adjust size for workspace/edit screens
Set Launcher workspace to 6 rows/ 6 columns (fits good)
Set appdrawer to 6x6 layout as well
Adjusted to allow 5 shortcuts on bottom bar
How to install?
This is a CWM3 package, save to sd card, use recovery to install (choose zip from sdcard etc)
You must clear your dalvik cache after install.
Reboot, clear the application data for twlauncher to ensure it displays properly.
This is currenty setup for 240 dpi, I'm working on a version for 182dpi as I type.
*UPDATE*
Alright, I've attached the 182 version. Unfortunatly I just cannot get it to accept a grid any larger than 8x8.. though I suppose that's still 64 spaces right?
Known Issues
Screen rotation is not currently working
Nice one mate!
Nice work! The screen rotation does not work for me.

Hi guys,
Is there any way to add "Auto-Rotate" to Quick Setting. I have searched the forum and even google it but didn't find any useful answer.
PS: My DS is running on Rooted Stock Rom (odex).
Thank You!
I'm not sure but I think there is a widget available for it?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
yes, there is a Auto-Rotate widget that you can download from HTC Sense
then you can place on your home screen

No, i dont want any widgets on homescreen, what i want is to extend my Quick Settings drop down menu and add a toggle to auto on and off Rotation.
There is this "Switch Go Widget" I am using, try to search it on the market. I am using Go Launcher though, am not sure if you can install that one without Go Launcher.

This question is for developers, who know how to tweak and mod the settings.

Read the Posting Rules before suggesting others where they should post.
What is it that you are trying to achieve with having that on the quick setting? If it's because you only want the screen rotate while in a certain app, then I'd recommend an app called Smart Rotator. It's on the market, and you can preconfigure which apps to rotate and at what angle. So whenever you launch that app, it will rotate as you configured, and when you close it, it returns to normal.
Not Available Try custom roms for this
You need to edit the sense frameworks

Under clock options. Choose Clock Color. You could make the color of your clock black and that way you wouldn't be able to see it and effectively hide it.
I know it's not the same as hiding it where the other icons would slide right to fill the gap. Just a thought I had.

LOL Don't blame it on me. The forum its floded with useless crap and I wasn't trying to be rude but now I am. Why the hell would you want to remove the clock? If you are such a great innovative asker noob then you could just figure out to change color to black since there aren't any more option in any rom to let you deal with that sort of things. Besides that, learn to code and my guess is that you would have to change many stuff from internal to design. Good luck. I hold no grudge against you. Answer w/e you want. I rest my case.

I doubt a developer would be that interested in chiming in on this one... Though have you considered changing the launcher, adw allows you to completely hide the status bar, I know it's not the answer you may be seeking just an option
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
decompile the apk
/res
/layout
/statusbar.xml
Remove the clock line recompile and flash If that causes issues. U can always just change the clocks dpi to 0 which effectivly hides it. Next time please state which rom you are on ( for anything based on stock this will work..) Themers would have known this one 2

Well, it obviously looks like there is not a developer or themer that wants or needs this.
Maybe you all should work together to modify the app theme to a dark theme. It isn't that complicated. There is also the option of using a 3rd party launcher or 3rd party theme app to achieve this, some of these can even add the dark theme to everything on the device without needing to modify the apps themselves.

I went to Playstore and searched for:
"Dark theme"
These are the results:
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=Dark theme&c=apps
Some of the apps in those results can be used to dark theme other apps, even add dark theme to the whole device with the right setup of app/apps. Try a lot of them, dig deeply into the different ways they can be used, see if any work together to enable/disable dark theme where you want/don't want.
I did a simple Google search for:
"Apps to make all apps dark theme"
This is one of the first results I found:
https://www.davebennett.tech/dark-theme-any-app/
That is just one result, there are many others.
The point is, there are things already available to do what you want.
If that isn't enough, do a Google search for:
"How to use APKtool to modify apps"
Or
"How to theme android apps"
Use one/some of those guides to learn how to actually modify and repackage the apk file of whatever app that you want to add dark theme to.
To learn how to actually edit the apk to add dark theme, do a Google search for:
"How to edit apk file to add dark theme"
You can even change the icon for the app or even change the image files for the different "buttons" or the font in the app, you can even change the color/location of buttons and text in the app.
The point is, the stuff to do what you want already exists at various levels of difficulty. Find the difficulty level that you are comfortable with and figure it out by trial and error.
I think I've shown you some basic examples of how you can acieve your result for any/all apps, it's up to you to dig in and find your best option.

You can enable invert color option from developer menu while using Flipboard

Currently on AOKP, because... I dunno I wanted to see what r4ins was working with and it's a bit smoother than Paranoid. I have a blanket DPI of 180 with a market that fixes DPI incompatibility so no need to switch back yet.
However I do love Paranoid (great job gs2user) so I remember my settings.
Tablet UI (small) although to be honest the phone styled notification center is better
Status bar 185
Lockscreen 180
Default apps to 185
Calendar and email look the best in Tablet mode. I changed settings back to phone UI.
