I have fixed the theme and now looks more integrated on 200808 is not a
file browser is a picture viewer with a filebrowser to find the
pictures :)

Please post how to do it, I will readd the installer as other app when i
was able to make submenus but I will be very happy if you tellme how to
remove the bottom bar.

If it helps you , while auto suspend/resume has this issues I have
disabled the auto suspend and only enable the blank screen, I supend it
manually trough the power button and I have no problem at all, it wakes
up on calls, and when I push the power button again.
