[Q] Crazy stuff with status, nav and dock bars - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

We have a Xoom MZ604. Running Backed - Blackbean 6 ROM w/ Apex Launcher Pro. My dear wife was using the tablet and when I pick it up (landscape mode ) the Nav bar was across the complete bottom, the Status bar was across the top, the Google Search was on the left and the Dock bar was on the right side.
It was as if I was using a phone. When going back and forth between views the bars stayed in their relative positions. I really started to like this look and I could use my right thumb and scroll thru the dock bars quickly. But had NO idea what she had done
Had to reflash ROM, installed new TWRP recovery ***AWESOME*** etc, and for the life of me can't seem to duplicate whatever my wife had done. Searched forums and tried different settings over and over!!
WHAT DID IS MISS??? Hope its easy and I can feel like an idiot, haha.

Anyone get ghost images in their status bar?

Since I have had my s3, i notice sometimes in my status bar i get ghosted images of my icons. For example, I have tasker installed with the ongoing notification. Sometimes when the icons change, a ghost image appears of the tasker icon, even behind a new icon. Its not just tasker, its any of the icons in my status bar on the left side. They go away eventually. Wondering if others have the same issue.
Edit- just noticed it happens on the entire status bar, left to right.
Yea it happened to me on synergy.i was running that fancy theme with aroma installer... Synergy got too bloated for my taste. Cleanrom is great.
What rom do you have
VZW GALAXY S 3 4G LTE
Currently on Synergy. I thought Cleanrom was odex, I like being able to theme my phone, seems like most themes are designed for Synergy.
Ive had this happen to me on stock. It occurs randomly and the one time I really noticed it was after updating some apps in the market. Goes away just as randomly. I hope this doesnt become a more persistent bug.

[Q] Change Navigation Bar Content on Stock ROM?

Hi,
I'm trying to get a Nexus 7 like UI in my Galaxy Tab 7.7. I have ICS 4.0.4 running on it. I installed Nova Launcher, set it as default, replaced Samsung Keyboard, changed DPI to 213, replaced some other misbehaving Samsung Apps. So far so good. But I would like to further simplify the UI, like in Nexus:
1) Introduce a new bar on the top of screen like Nexus7, move the icons on the right side of bottom navigation bar to top of screen. I need a new bar for this, any idea how can I get it? the notifications shall also start to pop down from top of the screen.
2) Disable mini-apps bar in the middle of bottom navbar. Anyway many of them don't function anymore in 213 DPI and I don't need it anymore.
3) Distribute the remaining navbar icons evenly onto the bottom navbar. Now they are very close to each other on the crowded left side of the bar.
Is this mission impossible? I was eventually using latest CM10 version which was good, but one morning I woke up with a depleted battery and a boot loop. I will wait some more time in the stock ROM (if possible) to try again either CM10 or PA.

[SOLVED][Q] Restore old style navigation/status bar?

Does anyone know how to restore the old style JB status and notification bar? i.e. everything in the bottom right corner of the screen
The new style (clock/battery top right, notifications top left) is awkward to use because the trigger area for the bars is so narrow and the Poetic case I have my TF300T in obstructs access, but I can't see a way to go back.
Alternatively are there any ROMs that allow you to adjust the size of the trigger area for the bars? I'm currently running BAKED bb-9 on 4.2
Thanks
Edit: found an option to do this in BAKED after all...

lock screen and status bar queries

hi, apologies if this has been posted before but it's really driving me nuts. 2 days ago everything was fine: i'm simply using c-locker as a lock screen. then yesterday i noticed there was another lock screen which can only be unlocked by swiping up. the status bar also changed. whereas before the bar went all the way up to the edge, now there's a black bar. the phone signal moved to the left side. to view notification icons (like an envelope for sms), the sound would come but the status bar would stay the same. by clicking on the status bar only then would the other icons appear and the status bar would go to the original (be all the way to the end of the screen). i'm still googling about but so far zilch.
solved!
my wife's phone is a nokia 1020 (we bought it as she loves the camera). it rang last night and she was in the gym. so i answered it and afterwards i noticed that the lockscreen and the status bar were very similar to the one i was having issues with in my edge. so i went over to my edge and uninstalled windows 10 launcher. i had previously installed it because my wife wanted to see if i could replicate her phone interface. so i installed but never used the launcher. when the edge did an ota update, windows 10 launcher was part of the other apps touched. whatever updates happened, the launcher forced it's lockscreen and status bar profiles on top of my existing setup. so, in case you plan to install the win10 launcher, maybe it's best to use it on it's own.
