[Q] icon shadow removal on lg g3 home screen

HI all, and I hope i'm posting in the right area for this.



My first android phone is the LG G3 which I just received several weeks ago. As you can see from the included picture I've started enjoying some of the customizable options. I ran across one problem though and haven't had much luck searching google for a solution or even knowing what to search for.



As you can see from the picture, the white icon square which I've circled has a dark gradient applied to the bottom of it. The LG G3 OS seems to apply this gradient by default to every icon I create. The only way Ive tried to get around it is by creating reverse gradient icons in Photoshop but that limits my color choices.

You can see the image for my phone screen over at nathanstann dot com / screenshotforxda.jpg (Was trying to get up to ten posts but since Im new most of what I got to say is pretty useless and this question doesn't make much sense without a pic so...)

My next logical step was to root the phone and use tweaksbox. However, I thought I'd ask the question here as a last ditch effort before rooting the phone for such a trivial purpose.



Im quite happy with the stock LG G3 launcher as it is right now in terms of how it performs except for this one cosmetic issue which is hindering my flat tile design vision. All the design you see here was just done by changing out the icon's images with my own photoshop designed icons.





My question is, does anyone know how to disable the dark shadowed gradient that the LG G3 overlays onto the icons? It seems to me it has to be at least accessible on the launcher level as third party launchers are free of this effect. So it led me to think that maybe I could somehow edit the launcher itself ? I don't know its new to me and a little over my head so Im just thinking out loud.





Anyone with tips or experience would be amazing!.





Looking forward to learning more from this community.

[TOOL][UTILITY] CIKA - Carliv Image Kitchen for Android - unpack/repack boot-recovery

Hi, I present you my latest work: CIKA aka Carliv Image Kitchen for Android . So, what is this? It's a utility (tool) for unpacking and repacking boot and recovery images for many kind of android phones. I made two versions, one for windows users and one for linux users. The windows version works by dragging&dropping over the script you want to use, while the linux version will work with terminal commans (very simple commands though). What's inside? For windows version the scripts are batch files and for linux bash files , but the names are the same and they do same thing: clear_all will clear the working folder deleting any unpacked boot/recovery folder, but not the boot or recovery files (original or repacked). image_info will print on screen all informations about the image you want to check (sizes, offsets, cmdline, etc.) and all these infos will be saved in a text file (which will be deleted when you clear the folder - see point 1). This is handy if you don't...

Part 2 of Netflix’s Chilling Adventures of Sabrina keeps the Harry Potter influence going

Everyone who’s been enjoying the magician-in-training aspect of Netflix’s Chilling Adventures of Sabrina should be happy to know that the second half of the show’s first season doubles down on its debt to Harry Potter and Buffy the Vampire Slayer while also drawing some on Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings . One of the most enduring ideas popularized by George Lucas and J.R.R. Tolkien is that world-changing powers can easily be misused. In this latest Sabrina run, the heroine’s decision to sign her name in “The Book of the Beast” at the end of the season’s first half means she’s now one of the most capable witches on Earth, and those new abilities are changing her. Chilling Adventures debuted last October with 10 episodes, introducing... Continue reading… from The Verge - All Posts http://bit.ly/2OQyWSY via IFTTT
