Problems with CM10 and p3100

I performed the flash version of the CM10 build 12102012 (even if there is a problem I had with build 11102012 e10102012) and in gallery, I realized that the instantaneous loading does not appear, and as if nothing is synchronized with the gallery. The instantaneous loading is configured and running.
In addition to this problem I have problems with landscape mode icons are not aligned

I have I more problem.. I cannot seem to get my home screen in portrait mode in basic Launcher . Its always in landscape mode. Another problem is , if I hide the bottom bar which contains back/home/running apps , then I cannot navigate if I go in any of the apps.
Can someone tell me, whether it is possible to customize the bottom bar with the notification bar, 2 bars in one screen have greatly reduced the viewing space width wise

Solved the problem with ladscape mode.. I just had to set up the NOVA launcher .. what I observed, is erratic scaling, when we turn the device from landscape to portrait mode. I know this may not be the appropriate to post bugs here , or direct questions, and no one seems to answer it also ...

[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.

[Q] Notification DPI change help? 33R and 44S

Hi All,
I've been using 33R stock and have been using 340 DPI on my System UI (using xposed app settings) and everything is fine. I like having the tablet style notification shade (the one that doesn't cover the whole screen) and usually the notifications resize properly. When I tried updating to 38R, the notifications became huge and didn't fit in the shade. I even tried updating to 44S, and it's also the same. I attached 2 screenshots to show what I mean. Does anyone have any ideas?
Its just the way that DPI is, sadly. Theres not much you can do about it except raise the DPI higher.

[Q] Prepping Android stick for car

Hi
I'm in the process of installing a Android-stick in my car by HDMI to display on the original 7" screen and controlled with a touch-plate overlay.
That part is done and its working, but with such a low res screen (800x480 native) with stick running 720p the menus and text become unreadable even in "huge" mode. This i was able to more or less fix by using an app "Resolution Changer" which allows for changing resolution and DPI.
Problem is that icons will start to overlap/cut eachother if tweaked too muuch and app names disappear, also the standard android menu and statusbar remains tiny.
My biggest problem now, after trying a different launcher, this one with a "windows 8" kind of layout, all icons are on top of eachother and I cant switch launcher back or find the icon for settings or Resolution Changer.
Hope anyone have tips on how to solve it other than reflashing, well, Its not a biggie, but would prefer not to.

grey lines at top of the screen with pure black wallpaper

So recently i started to notice that in my home screen (touchwiz or other launchers) at the top of the screen there is some grey lines it is best visible if i use a black wallpaper and set the brightness to the maximum. This doesn't show anywhere except on the home screen. I tried other wallpapers, and if i look at it in the gallery or turn on ultra power saving mode there is no grey lines.(my device is galaxy s6)
Does anyone know what it is? Or how to fix it?
(i hope you guys can understand me sry for my english)
So, if you switch to your pictures and images gallery, the lines disappear?
Did you drop your device on the floor or did it incurred any damages lately?

It's a common issue. It's stupid Touchwiz/Samsung system which creates a small overlay at the top of Homescreens (any launchers) & lockscreens. In gallery etc, it's perfectly black since no overlay.
I don't think there is a fix. U can use a slightly greyish instead of full black wallpaper. It's not a big problem though
Oh i understand. Thank you for help. I was thought my phone has a problem.
Sometimes the grey lines can appear in Samsung mobiles if you use a bad launcher or a theme which is not compatible with the phone. You can try updating to a new version and see if fixes the problem, or use a light gray wallpaper as already suggested. Another couple of things to try... take a screenshot of your phone and test it on your laptop to see if the lines are still there. If not then it could be a problem with the screen itself. It's also worth restarting your phone in Safe Mode as this mode only runs with pre-installed apps. If you don't see the lines then an app could be your culprit
