problem with ui. please help - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i don't know what happened. but the transparency if the navigation buttons-back,home,and the recent app button completely black totally opaque now. i downloaded the nova launcher that might have done this. i immediately uninstalled though after seeing this.

Did you backup your systemui.apk? You have rooted phone right?

Hiding icons

There any way to hide icons in the app menu so that you don't see them anymore? I've removed some carrier bloat but there's still some apps that i never use and can't delete that i'd like to hide.
Use a different launcher. GO Launcher, Launcherpro, ADW, etc. have options to do this. Touchwiz blows anyway.

Or just uninstall the app if you never use it?

this is on the wife's mes, she wants the portable hotspot gone. she's having a fit about it. Don't think there's a way to uninstall it and she refuses to use launcher pro. She doesn't like it for some reason.
I'm allready on launcher pro.

It's just an app and you said you already removed other system apps so I assume you are rooted. Shouldn't be an issue to remove this as well.

Freeze it using TitaniumBackup Pro?
Can't find it is the problem and don't want to mess up wireless in general.
Will freezing it hide the icon? I figured i could just hide it and tell her i uninstalled it and she'll be happy.

Yeah now I'm really confused.
Here's an idea, tell your wife to quit whining over a damn icon and shut the **** up.

How can I change my dock bar??

I just installed krom theme from the market which includes several different backgrounds for my dock bar but I haven't a clue to access or change them.... anyone know how??? I've already been all through the adw menus and can't figure it out nothing gives me the option to change it only if I want 1,3,or 5 action buttons and tinting etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ADW Launcher EX will give you the ability to change the dock. The lesser version without the "EX" does not. I upgraded from the ADW that was included in the Cyanogen ROM and it works great. I assume you can run that launcher from any configuration. Hope this helps, I'm sure there are other methods as well.

[Solved] Android Revolution + ADW EX

I'm using Android Revolution and ADW EX launcher. Now I can't edit the icons anymore on adw ex. I hold down on the icon and nothing happens. Anyway to fix this?
surely you would just need to tap it to change it ?

Tapping it starts up the apps.....
ive just tried and mine works fine ?? im running everything the same as you.
1. Could do with a restart maybe?
2. Try removing the battery and see if that helps? Sometimes my screen doesnt respond to long presses.?
Tried that^ Still not working.
There's an option in ADW to lock or unlock the desktop. Sounds like it's locked right now. Locking prevents things like having your dock icons slip out every time you flip up the hidden dockbar but makes it so you can't do any alterations.

ughh forgot about that. I just uninstall and reinstalled it and its working now.
Glad it's working now! For all the options I tweaked with ADW, locking the desktop was the last thing I discovered.

No, we can't! I tried! I went back to the previous version 5.2! These navegation bars on screen really makes me nervous! Burn-in is a matter of time! I honestly did not like their response!
Any launcher able to do this anymore?

mine just auto updated when I was reading this thread. lol ..
how can you switch back to 5.2 ? I downloaded from apkmirror but cannot install. need to uninstall first?
I can see that when in nova/home, the dot for show/hide navbar is gone, and navbar will always show.
but in other apps, it will follow hide/show setting and dot is there.
There's 2 ways
Native settings in display, and finding a theme that does transparent bars
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
I'm using Nova Launcher Prime 5.3 too and my navbar is still transparent on homescreen.
In addition i can hide navbar too with the dots, so i don't know what's your problem at all.
Its working like all the time before.
It's transparent but there isn't any point to hide.
I don't hide that anyway so no problem for me

You have to activate the point in navbar settings first.. i have the point and hide is working fine..
EDIT: okay, you're right, point is only visible in apps and settings, not on homescreen itself.
Good that i don't need it

The dot is working in the apps, but not in the homescreen anymore. Just updated Nova.
Suggest you *ALL* contact the dev, and leave negative reviews on the app store or youll be stuck with it like that forever. It is sheer stupidity. Most people use nova for the customisation, removing the ability to do this is pretty stupid.
2 other ideas
1, does anyone know a transparent dark theme that would take care of this problem
2, any other launcher with this much power that would keep doing this

Can use adb to hide navbar even in nova launcher.

Send me a print of your home screen please!
Guys we are talking about the navbar on home screen, okay? I see that it works in apps and settings! Yes. I know the navbar can be transparent. But the discussion is not about it! Burn-in is alive and I want to avoid the problem!
