It shouldn't freeze up but check permissions for it. Toggle on Storage permission and try again. Hopefully that's all it is.

Oh wait. The app is not working for me either right now. Just a black screen. Has to be killed as I can't back out.
No doubt a temporary glitch. When some apps can't reach a network resource stuff like that happens.
Just wait it out a bit.

Yeah the updater info is all web base, if the servers go down the app won't open. They were down like 30 min. You guys just happen to catch it lol.

Working now though.

@TeamBlackOut I have just a minor question regarding the TBO Updater...

I provided some sample screenshots reflecting that the lettering (on the left side) is overlapping the dates (on the right side). It looks like if the lettering (on the left side) is more than 15 characters (give or take depending on the amount of capital letters), it overlaps the dates on the right.

It's not a show stopper but, some of the dates are a challenge to see.

Thanks a bunch!

Maybe change the dpi on your device?

Is there a prerequisite to this app requiring a certain dpi for it to display the text characters appropriately?

My current dpi is 320...

Is that dpi not a correct one for a proper display of the text characters?

I'm just not understanding why there would be a dpi requirement unless the apps compatibility requirement does not include the D2VZW's Samsung Galaxy S3 (SCH-I535) due to the devices default dpi of 320.

Is that what you're stating?

I'm really not trying to give you a hard time at all, I'm just dumbfounded by the initial response of a dpi change.

I'm not thinking that you are giving me a hard time - I know that with some different devices that dpi can make a difference - try 300 and see if that helps.

Well it does depend on screen DPI because on my N6 560 stock dpi it looks just fine. I think he was asking are you using stock DPI?

We created the app with 480dpi in mind so if you're using a smaller dpi that's why. Some of the lines we have changed to help but you see those entries you have issues with are old before we started condensing them.

You must have to move the signed Facebook apk to another location in order to use it? I did a search on facebook in this thread and got dozens of hits to sort through. Ill check through them.

When I try to just install my phone says "Sorry this conflicts with another installed app" ( yes facebook beta is uninstalled and then cache cleared )

Facebook messenger shares resources with Facebook, so you'll need to install both from the updater. Uninstall both stock versions.


I need to add this to the updater...searches will help but I think I should add it.

Understood...

But, won't the dpi change affect some of the apps and/or other features within the device?

I'm not saying change your dpi, it was asking if you have already then go to stock dpi. Also look at newer entries to see if the same thing is happening because we changed some time ago how we enter updates.

Isn't there a file within the app (after installation) that states what the font size should be displayed as? And if so, then can it be changed to lower that specific font size?

Just wondering...

I have the same issue on my Moto G 2nd which has stock DPI of 320. It's not a dealbreaker for me,just to give some more information.
It appears not on the newest entries but black inbox from 11-07-2016 shows it.

Doesn't matter where this was sent from

Ah see, Dave might have just not noticed that. I'll have it fixed so we use a new line and protect the date. Thanks.

It´s ok for me but there are still some overlappings if the lettering has a lot of characters like "Black Facebook Beta".
That´s the only entry I found in themed apps, there´s also someting on the front page notably "Closed for the holidays" and "New Material Updater 6.2" but the date is visible.
It´s better now and as I said before it´s not a big deal for me but it´s not fully fixed. You still need a very tiny amount of space. ;)
See attached screenshots.

I have just a minor question regarding y'alls issues. While using your admittedly dated hardware, are you having any real trouble getting awesomely themed apps installed to your device? Not trying to troll, but this doesn't seem like am issue worth discussing. It would be very important if you couldn't read a description of a file that might break your phone, but when these guys spend so much of their free time making awesome things for free.99 maybe don't bog them down with minutiae because it doesn't look perfect for you? I'm not trying to minimalize your individual struggles, just trying to maintain a broader perspective here.

    Team Black Out is a team of both veteran app "Inverters" and new-comers that want to learn. With over A lot of popular Blacked Out and Transparent Android apps in our list, we are sure to not only amaze you but to guarantee once you use our Themed Apps you'll Black Out for a while.. The Team isn't doing ROMS though. We are simply combining the great minds of some of the Best in the Business when it comes to making apps Blacked Out or Transparent. We have only a few team members now because some are planning on being lightly active, so if you're already into doing Blacked Out apps, hit us up if you wanna join. We don't want to train people from the ground up but you don't have to be the best either. We will are hosting guides on this site to help walk people through the process of Inverted Apps...



    T-BOTS.png





    T-BOTs are the Team Black Out Testers. When we update an app or start a new one from scratch, we can put anywhere from 20 minutes to 10 hours into 1 app for all of you and then testing that app can take 10-60 minutes and we don't use every app we Black Out so we're bound to miss some hidden things. Well, this is where our Loyal T-BOTs come into play. Once we update an app they get busy looking for issues for us. This gives us more time to be able to update more apps, start new apps or just have some non-android fun. So make sure you thank the T-BOTs when you get blown away from how amazing these apps are!












    Obviously this style is the most popular. We don't theme our apps with images but rather Invert the Colors so you'll have Dark backgrounds and Light texts. This is very popular and has become something that many avid Android users have come to thoroughly enjoy so we will do our best to give you more of what you love!



    Transparent.png




    Transparent apps have become more popular the last year or so and some members of the Team have been offering them for a while now. Our transparent series of apps are called Clear Apps. Being able to see your wallpaper while you're using your favorite apps is just cool! We'll be offering our own wallpapers soon for you to use!









    Ok kids... click on "Welcome to the Dark Side" at the top and it will take you to our official Team Black Out website! All downloads are hosted there only to keep track of everything. If you've used any of our apps in the past in your Aroma installers or in your ROM, you can still use them. Link back to our SITE wherever you post our content tho. Do not post something in a different forum using our work and then PM us to let us know and hope it's ok with us.... It isn't. Ask first and we'll work with you but ask for forgiveness and we have a problem.



    Thanks
