Recent apps - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello! There is something bothering me. Take a look:
On nougat, the recent tabs looked like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
On Oreo, they are all the same color:
That's horrible! I could easily find the app I wanted based on the color, without having to read the name. Any way to get that back? I'm ready to root, get magisk, whatever.

GSM 'Brick' background on CDMA?

Hey all, I'd like to know how I can get the 'brick' style background on all my tabs like the GSM version of the phone has. I have the Sprint version of the phone and it includes a black background.

I will see what i can do... I have to find which manila files to change...
but it will take a while, don't have the time right now...
Maybe someone else will beat me to it!?
Awesome ^_^
Well, there is a thread called "no bricks" which does exactly the opposite. I don't like the bricks
So, before applying that patch, i backed up my original bricks file, which should work for you.
Here you go (untested though! Make sure you back up the file too):
my "bricks" don't look as good as the pic above. mine are more round and spaced further. that does look way better.

NC owners, little help here :)

So i decided to get myself nc and was wondering if it can read middle asian(georgian) unicode.
Can anyone go to this "forum.ge" with Nook, take screenshot and put it here?
Thanks, for help.
I just tried, both through DDMS and an app, but for some reason it was just a black screen both times.
I'll say this, though - the character I see appear to be the same ones I see using Chrome on my laptop. Although a few are styled slightly differently, everything seems to show up. Of course, I know nothing about Georgian, so I could be entirely wrong about that.

Tablet navigation bar on CM10.2

Is it possible to have a navigation bar, tablet style with CM10.2?
I've seen several images, like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
but can't figure a way to install it.
Does anyone here have it and can provide me a link or something for it? Would love to use it instead on the regular 2 black bars, one navigation and one for notifications on the up side of screen.

Wrong place for this
Use Pac-man instead it has all those features
Im satisifed with CM10.2, everything is working nice... Just want a .zip to flash and change it. Thought it would be possible

No, you need PAC or AOKP. And this isn't the right section for this

Yes, with missing link it looks really weird Sorry for that, it's fixed now
One thing I have to say - you really depend on many customization options... totally different type of usage if compared to what I expect from my Z3C.
I only use stock apps, stock launcher and no serious mods except some Xposed ones which are essential for me to use my phone daily.
Maybe it's because it was always difficult for me to set up everything and I had no time to test different setups... I'm that kind of lazy guy
Anyway I don't really have too much to say about your setup but you provided nice description of your apps and settings!
'Cause I was bored waiting for the next beta of MM, I decided to implement your suggestions. You're right, these make for a nice Android experience on my Z3c. I'm curious to see what effect there is on battery.

OnePlus 5 Always on Display

Does anyone have the same problem? I installed the magisk module easily. But when I reboot and try to set it up, the settings look totally disproportionate (photo -
