I use a dual-sim version of Moto G. My phone has been updated to 4.4.2 for over a month now, but suddenly a couple of days ago the bottom navigation bar lost the transparency (screenshot is posted) that's a prominent feature of the kitkat update. This is really bothering me, and i have not made any changes in the settings in the last few days.
p.s. this is not a wallpaper issue. i'v tried atleast 20 wallpapers since facing this problem.
help would be really appreciated. thank you!!

try to crop the wallpaper with another app, eg. Zedge

I had this issue
I had this issue too. Turns out all you had to do was try out different crop sizes. When selecting your wallpaper, try pinching and zooming. I use the Google Now Launcher at the moment and it scales the wallpaper for your automatically.

Seems indeed an issue with the wallpaper. Nothing wrong with KK.

There is a problem when you try to set the wallpaper from the photo or gallery app. As someone else said try to set the wallpaper from zedge, Rwilco12, wall base any other app of your choice. It's gonna work.

Go Weather Widget Skins

Anyone else that using the Go Weather widget having problems where the themes for the widget aren't allowing you to browse for more? Seems to only be allowing me to select two - the default and a simple one.
I really want the lucid pro one, but even if I download it from the market it isn't showing up in the widget's theme section. I hate that default one with the flowers and green lawn.
I am having the exact same issue. What ROM are you on?

My wifes phone is a Samsung Fascinate, with a Touchwiz debloated Rom, mine was running MIUI, now running Jermaine's Stock Plus from yesterday. Having the issue on all of them, including my wifes.
I'm having exactly the same issue. The missing themes are available in the Market, but if you download them for there they are not associated with the application and will not load...
Strangely, mine started working. I wish I knew what I did, but I didn't actually do anything that I'm aware of. Sorry I'm no more help.
I did notice a banner news update in the GoWeather app which talked about fixing the bug with the widget packs not being selectable, but I know I didn't install an update.
I believe they said it was a server issue
I still have the issue on my Atrix. Had on a stock ROM, now having still with CM7.
Doesn't seem to be server issue or at least doesn't seem to be fixed yet.
Ääähhh...did nobody of you guys realize that the widget doesnt actualize the weather and shows completely wrong weather data? I tried our big german cities like münchen, düsseldorf, dortmund, berlin...with the same result. when will goweather devs wake up and fix that?

I gave up and switched to the Android Weather widget. Always accurate and goes nice with the stock Go launcher. I like that it has wind speed. I already have a calender widget so use the date tap to open the Weather Channel for a more detailed forecast. It also shows your exact address on the 2nd screen, which can be useful.

Do not Have this Problem

Motoactv, post your homescreen here!

This is a thread for Motoactv users to post screenshots of their homescreens.
Make sure you give a little explanation of what widgets you have etc!

I'm on DP Rom, using Zeam launcher. The clock is a UCCW widget.
The 't' icon, is the Nook bluetooth tethering widget.
The only problem i have, is that when i turn my watch on, there is a split second delay for the UCCW widget to update to the correct time
No device should be without the mandatory "show your home screen" thread
I like your idea of using UCCW for the clock widget but found that using One More Clock has some nice presets already. Anyway, all I actually wanted to ask is what the best way for taking screen shots on the MotoACTV are... I'm spoiled with the pre-installed tools on my TF101 and the Note II but i still have a tool I downloaded from here a long time ago.
Thanks!

How did you install widgets? I'm on the latest DP rom and every widget that I've install doesn't show up under the list (only the stock ones do) when trying to add a widget to zeam launcher or launcher 7. I just tried one more clock with no avail.

You have to go into Manage Applications and find your installed widget, then click the "move to phone" button.

Icon size won't change after using xposed

Hey guys,
long time gone since I asked something in Q&A section, but no idea anymore...
I tested xposed framework again after some time. Problem always was the icon themer module which always want to get activated, even it already was.
This time I could change the icon theme once and afterwards I couldn't get back into to change to default, because the module wanted to get activated again -_-
After deleting all I had the default icons back, BUT my icon size and distance isn't as it was.
So with changing the density to default, u won't see any problem, but with setting it down (like I always had) u can see what I'm talking about.
Actually:

}
Before:
Thanks in advance for any ideas and tips.
PS: Because I already tried so much, today I also did a fullwipe, without success.
CHEERS
Use the up to date icon themer (Unicon) from the play store

Are you making changes to the DPI?

That would maybe let me change the icon, but this definitely helps to reset the sizes and distances?

Yeah, like I wrote I always have changed my dpi. I always on 435dpi.
Only default (480dpi) will show all correct.
CHEERS
OK guys, I got it back again.
1st of all, like @thereal_bigjake mentioned, u need the actual icon themer!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sg.ruqqq.IconThemer
But now it's not just done with changing icons...
- U have to choose another icon theme first
- Reboot
- then choose the default/system one
- Restart launcher
=> now it's fixed and u can change to another theme if u want.
Thanks guys and CHEERS
EDIT!
*push*
I was wrong -_-
After a reboot it's back to the 5*5 than 4*4 raster and having the normal icon size...
Any more idea... Really disturbing
PS: So I always get back the original view when restarting the launcher via app. But after reboot it's bad listed again.

App like simi-folder - floating shortcuts?

Hi folks,
I'm looking for an app where if I press a shortcut (from Pie specifically), it will bring up a bunch of pre-defined app shortcuts.
Simi folder works well, but the problem for me is that it positions itself oddly. Its fine if I launch it from the dock row of icons (which I actually want to replace) but because Pie is built into systemUI, it positions itself near the status bar.
I dont want something that swipes from the side of the screen or similar. I just want to press a button and have the icons pop up, preferably in a predefined location, but at least not at the top of the screen
This is what simifolder looks like (as launched from home screen)

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
which would be perfect, except the problem is if launched from Pie, its at the top of the screen, which is annoying.
Does anyone know of similar apps that would do this, launchable from a custom shortcut?

No but it does look good... I could make a nice UCCW widget for the apps I want to launch.
Open to other ideas too.

I prefer Zooper, but I am just in the first steps with popup widget. UCCW should work, too.

How to get Weather Lockscreen back on Marshmallow?

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone who upgraded to Marshmallow 6.0.1 has found a way to get the Weather Lockscreen back. I really liked using it on Lollipop and it does not show up anywhere on Marshmallow. I also have a T-Mobile Note 4 that I upgraded to OvrDriVE's 6.0.1 Marshmallow ROM and it is missing the Weather Lockscreen as well. Any ideas?

I really miss this feature too. I've been looking for a way to reactivate it or something suitable to replace it with all day but haven't found anything. I hope someone finds a solution or they bring it back with the next update.

I'm using Microsoft's Next Lockscreen app for now. It's not a final solution but it's a viable option depending on your needs. You swipe up/down just below the clock to hide/show the weather.

For me, it's more about the dynamic images than the weather info itself. I just found an app called Smart Wallpaper, which you have to load your own wallpaper images into, but it's very customizable as far as when to display the images. It's working pretty well so far. Only thing I don't like right off the bat though is that you can't just choose to display the wallpaper on the lock screen only...it has to be home only or home and lock screen.
