Flashed this and lost my navbar and statusbar... how do I get those back?

Haven't done a nandroid backup in a while, so if there's any other way, I'd appreciate if someone could help me out.

@Sam:
adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app

with SystemUI.apk from the original ROM zip, and go f*** the themer please.

I had enough of this, which version did you install? The latest version already has zipalign disabled for /system/app and this feature is disabled by default. Did you install a kernel with this mod or did you clean dalvik-cache the same time with this mod in recovery?

I suggest you charge your phone to over 90% and unplug it, your battery stat file will be reset, unless it's the ROM that's borked.

Thanks, I installed from the attached file in the first post, "trickster mod 1.0" so I don't know what the problem was. Thanks for the quick reply.

I meant the CWM zip not the apk, it should have a date tag attached to it. The latest version is 20120717, so which CWM zip did you install?

The apk by itself does nothing, because it's just a front end GUI.

So if I ever enable "zipalign" again I'll lose my navbar and status bar again, right? Would using a different theme fix this problem and let me use the zipalign feature?

No zipalign operation does not cause this issue now. You can try it again. But if you do something that clean out dalvik-cache (my mod does not do this), you will run into the same troubles. Some kernel CWM zips do this so is doing it yourself in recovery.

Installing another theme will fix the issue for good if that theme was done correctly.

If I just install the zip and the apk, then launch the app without doing any changes, all the settings that is shown to me is what my phone is currently running?

BTW, great app, especially appreciate the color control function.

bigeyes; I really love your mod, however I really wanna get my screen colors correct. What I've noticed for testing anyways with my brightness at 50%, is that when I reboot and my desktop comes up, if I sit there, the screen looks awesome, colors are spot on it seems.

Then I think your MOD finishes loading 15 seconds or so after my desktop appears...and if I keep looking at my screen that whole time, I know your MOD has finished doing its thing because then my screen gets slightly darker, not much, but really blue. I can totally tell the blue tint it puts on it. I really wanna stop that from happening and keep whatever default setting it is when the phone boots up.

In your app under SCREEN. My color profile is set to Trick. Brightness at 0. So I think basically default from your side of things. Can you help??

Change it to user and set the it to the value you want. For now there's no way to disable it only set it to what you want.

    Good job on the latest app.
    Just to confirm, to fully uninstall it, all one needs to do is uninstall the app from within Android or TiBu correct?
    No more needing the uninstall cwm flashable?

    You may need to restart the phone.

    - Add FAQ and Discussion Forum for each device in About tab
    - Nexus 7: Add CPUQuiet, Smart Dimmer and GPU 3D scaling controls
    - Support 4 step OC for GPU on GNex Anarky Kernel

    - Improve init.d detection on CM based ROM

    @kyokeun1234: Might be because we missed it or we deemed the question to be user/ROM errors. In any case this is a Root app, if you don't let it have root, what do you expect? Your problem with AOKP is likely because you enable the same feature like Zipalign in both our app and the ROM. Lastly if you still encounter any problem with the new version, do a bug report then.
