custom AOD background? - AT&T Note 7 Questions & Answers

When watching some YouTube videos of one of my favorite reviewers, I noticed he had a custom pic set as the background of his always on display. How did he achieve this? I can't find any setting or Google search to help!

I figured out the background in layouts/content to show. I want to know how to doa clock and custom background. I think that I is what you are asking. I can do a clock and small picture under it.... But that's about it. Please tag me know if you find out! [emoji106]

Yes it was!!

Rbedell! Okayyy figured it out!! You have to update "always on display" the new version gives a few more options. Pick the very last one (attached a screenshot) and it will let you add whatever image you want.

Yeah I agree.. But.. With it being displayed on the AOD it's probably dialed down a bit so it doesn't cause battery drain..

I figured that part out. I have a family photo. I was thinking more Fullscreen picture with the clock. I have a family photo for now. I only use AOD for a night clock anyway while it sits on my wireless charger. No biggie, thanks anyway.

New EC07-#3: Wish List

Very very satisfied with this upgrade.... JOB WELL DONE!
I only have 2 wish list;
1: STAY AWAKE - option in Application>Development>. I would like this option back. This was good feature when phone is connected to USB or charger. Especially when driving.
2: Notification Font Color - Very hard to read with light Gray background with White Font. Maybe different Font Color????
Does anybody has any wish list?
Thanks

Absolutely!
And I would add another wish:

These are features that exist in CyanogenMod and I would love to seem them here, too.

I've been looking around in the framework, but i'm not sure where it is... I'm thinking Res/layout/status bar_expanded. But, the only hex I see there is for black, which makes me think it's actually for the header, not the text itself... Wanna educate me on where to look?
EDIT: Found it... I think. res/layout/status bar latest event content... I'll find out for sure, tomorrow.
I got your wish #1 done
I am using it myself, and it works great
But, I have been debating whether or not to even release my projects anymore xP
And yes abby_Nitewolf that's what you need to change good job!

I too was wondering why there was no option to never sleep while charging? And also why wouldnt it be under display options? It seems to be related to usb debugging....I used to lose connection all the time when using pdanet or wireless tether until I used an app to keep screen on so this would be awsome to implement.....

ADW EX Launcher with Multi Picture Live Wallpaper.
Great vid, now I have this to add to my project list for the week. I need to go from android newb to pro with a rooted phone with updated kernel and a custom launcher set up.
Fabulous tutorial. When I get my note Ill try not to mess up what you instructed.
One question though. With the 3d UI can I use live/active wallpapers (the ones that move like the moving galaxy) instead of pictures?
Static

Hi, unfortunately it's only static wallpapers i'm afraid
Static screen problem
This question is for James, I presume, the maker of this tutorial. I've followed all your steps for the 3D UI, but, for some reason, the picture is staying static, there is no cube effect when I scroll screens, and yes, screen scrolling is enabled on AWD Ex. Help? =/
Did you enable the transition effects in Multi picture live wallpaper as well?
For me it works perfectly on Go Launcher Ex. I sat the transition there as well to outside cube.

not sure who figured it out but he made it so every app in your app drawer was in their and you just removed the ones you didnt want

If you look at a picture of that you see a small circle beside the window, I guess that's the magnet.

Under all apps it is called clock widget. Not sure what the official apk name is. It's probably the lg one that you mentioned. If you dont mind,PM me a link on the files so I can grab them or share them with me through google if you would like.
The lg clock widget definitely has references in it to quick cover. I was only able to look at it for a bit, but it had all the colors and mentions of the fancy watch faces as well. I didn't see where that would get activated though. I was going to look at lglockscreen tonight to see if there was a way in there to add more widgets. Let me know if you find anything and if i can help. Good luck

Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app
So i haven't found anything in the framework. I'm gonna see if i can get ahold of systemui or the launcher app and look into both of those. I did however create a slightly modified clock widget app for quick window. If someone would like to test for me... The only differences should be that purple is changed to green and i took out the backdrop faded 8 behind each number. I would appreciate a tester to let me know if the mods worked or not.
Thank you. link below

Try out XBackground Xposed Module
I didn't test it yet on our device but I was going to do the same once I had time and backups ran
I think I must be the only person that actually likes the white dialer.

You can try an xposed theme if you haven't already. Some of these will change the dialer. It will also theme other stuff so that may be good or bad depending on your taste.
If interested, check the xtheme thread in the Android Theme section.
Tried xtheme. Works for system menus and what not but not dialer. thanks for the suggestion

on the S4 i REALLY liked the International Samsung Stock Dark Dialer you can see here
it was from a stock Samsung build so it worked and looked great.
i wonder if something just like this exist for the N3?

There are a few xthemes that changed my dialer - Simplicity, Simplex, Gem Flat.
Maybe these don't work for everyone though.

I think it's that some people like light colors and some dark and it does show through the clothing you wear day to day. I prefer dark colors on my phone.
