Hi everyone.
Yesterday i updated from stock 4.0.3 ROM to a 4.1.2 ROM and i noticed right away that there was a quality loss in all small font.
It´s specially visible in the notification area.
I been trying all sort of ROMS, and ALL are the same.
The first ROM i tried was the oficial Siberia samsung 4.1.2 release. Then i tried the Samsung 2.0 from the devolopers section, and now the Zap Blaster wich is 4.1.1.
All are the same, i can´t get back the clear font i used to have in notification and in apps that use small fonts, this is very bad when there´s dark background.
Any idea why this happens? Anyone else noticed this? Is there a workaround?
Should i take pictures to show you?
Hi guys!
Recently i switched my tf101 from eos3 to eos4 (i did it after TeamEOS introduced tablet ui mode) and i stuck with "phablet" UI of stock launcher itself. I tried to replace launcher2.apk from 4.2 with apk from 4.1 but all i got was force closes =(
Are there any means to set 4.2 stock launcher to tablet UI or install 4.1 stock launcher?
p.s i know about Apex and Nova launchers, but they all have small annoying flaws.
As far as I know, it's not possible without modifying the apk package. You can give it a shot, there's some decompilers available, but it was beyond my coding skills and time I was willing to invest. The launcher is usually tied with the version of android due to lots of differences in the code in major versions, so I'm assuming modifications needed to work properly are extensive... but I could be wrong.

Thank you for your suggestions.
TeamEOS 4 #116 ROM has returned the Tablet bar style launcher like 4.1 had, you just change to "Tablet bar" in settings

I can confirm this, works well.
Hi, my new THL5000 android phone running KitKat 4.4.2 apears OK until I install new apps from play store. All the icons have a solid bold colour behind them which looks tacky and ugly. Anyone else come across this with this phone or any other KitKat device. My previous THL W8 beyond phone on JB 4.2.1 didn't do it.

Hi, guys! I was wondering if someone had my same problem with icons while using GNL (Google Now Launcher) on a 4.4 KitKat device. I'll try to explain: the launcher works perfectly in all his functions on my device (I have got a Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo+ with Android 4.4.2) but I noticed a strange problem everytime I restarted the phone or turned it on after the night: some icons seem to disappear from my home pages. At the beginning I used not to notice it so much and I used to put them back at their places but after some time the problem became stressing. I'm trying to underdstand and find out the what's causing this issue but I didn't manage to find it out 'till now!
Has anybody had the same problem? I would be really interested in hearing about your experience and opinions!
Has anybody maybe found a way to fix it?
PS. I also noticed this problem using KK Launcher, Epic Launcher, Trebuchet Launcher and every other launcher based on Android 4.4 KitKat. I also found it using previous versions of GNL!
I wonder know if there is a way to change the setting for the mode phablet UI or Tablet UI
