Which ROM does "Beautiful Widgets" Work Best With?

Hi all,
I'm interested in using Beautiful Widgets with any ROM in order to create a HTC-like sense in Launcher2. Only thing is, I can't find a ROM that supports it very well. Is anyone using a certain ROM with Beautiful Widgets successfully?
Thanks in advance!

Ok but that's not a "beautiful widget"....that's an HTC widget ....if I am thinking of the same one

No, its a beautiful widget. I know what you're talking about, its worked with every ROM i've used but I prefer the HTC widgets in all honesty. Why are you using BW anyway out of curiosity.

I want to simulate what HTC widgets might look like in Launcher2

The HTC-like widgets were removed sometime around version ~2.3-2.4 due to a cease and desist order from HTC.
Older versions will still have them.

Best "Friendstream" alternative?

Anyone know of any app that updates and shows status' from both social networking sites? Sort of like HTC's Friendstream, but for stock ROM.

I said app, not widgets.

Seesmic or seismic I don't remember how they spell it. Also T-Mobile released an app for everyone called mobile buzz or something like that.

Colorize is quite buggy, just a heads up

I've been using it for about two weeks, no problems so far,
if only RSS widget was a bit better...

I would recommend just switching to an Android ROM that has Sense built in. I was using Typhoon CM7 gingerbread 2.3.4, but wanted the better Facebook widget and Facebook phonebook contact integration, so I switched to BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA GINGER 2.3.4 Sense.s and found all that it had all the options I wanted in a ROM plus some. I really like The transition effects available In this rom. I will never use a non Sense Rom again! Just switch it's well worth it, I promise. Here is link to BOYPPC's Sense Rom if you want to check it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13458657

[Q] Transform Android to iOS/iPhone

Hi everyone!
I'm sitting here and browsing themes and lockscreens and so on..
And now I'm wondering if there is possible to make my android phone (CM7) to look just like an iPhone?
Can you guys help me to collect all apps (SMS, Caller, lockscreen, bootscreen and so on) and maybe some cm7 themes that looks like iOS/iPhone so that I (and you guys) can make our android phones to look like an iPhone!
Thanks in advance!

Widget locker for the lock screen. Minimalistic Text for the lock screen clock. And finally using Launcher pro with custom dock and iPhone icons off the web.

Which theme from widget locker?

It's not available for my device.. (LG GT540)

if you want iOS and everything to look like an iphone... why didnt you just get an iphone?

Here's some help...
People do hate iPhones round these parts.
I have personally used all of them, don't care for them next to a properly equipped android device.
Though my unlocked iPhones never did drop a call on the USA T-Mobile netwrok.
Was gonna post about MIUI, saw that someone had mentioned already.

jordanzink: Because i don't like the iPhone, i think android is better but i like the look of an iPhone
scariola: yeah! okey, but thanks anyway!

[Q] Looking for stock feature

Hey everyone,
Ive been running strong here on slimbean for a while now. And while its great I want some of the functionality features from the stock rom. Maybe its a android version thing, anyways what Im wanting to go back to is how under the contacts list, you swipe a contact name one way for text messaging and swipe the other way to call the person...even under the text message listing I think you could simply swipe the contact name and call the person. If you know what Im talking about, is this functionality available on a custom rom available? Im going to feel silly going back to stock just for that. Maybe im slow but I do it at least a couple times a week, ill browse through contacts click on who i want to call and put the phone to my ear, never calling the person b/c you have to click 'call' after selecting your contact. Hope im not sounding whiney, all you guys do things i couldnt.
thanks!

That feature is only found in the stock rom. You could check the play store to see if there is an app that will do the same thing, but that is all I can suggest.

ok cool dvarl thanks. I guess i can search for contact organizer? seems like it might be part of a launcher setting?
