[Q] Is there an app... - myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps

...similar to friendstream that I can use with launcher pro? I know I can't use the HTC widgets, but I would like to find a similar app. It must have a widget though. Thanks.

Yes its called facebook

read dummy, I said facebook and twitter.

Actually you didn't say twitter and facebook in your original post, just the friendstream which some people may not know that it does Twitter and Facebook off hand. Also you might want to refrain from calling people dummy's on the forums lol

You're right, I just assumed. And sorry to the person I called dummy.

Yes, Pure Messenger is a terrific replacement. Lots of skins, and scrollable with LauncherPro!

dumb question but how did you get that darker notification bar? ^^^
and change system fonts?

Not dumb, I had to ask the same thing a few days ago.
If you're running a CyanogenMod based rom, go to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > User Interface > Notifications Colors. Scroll down and click "Custom notification bar" on and choose your color!
Regarding the fonts, I really don't know. The guy I asked provided me with a zip of that font that I was able to apply via recovery. I'm not sure if you can just swap them in and out or what. I've attached the zip for you if you like that one in particular (which is a little difficult on the eyes at small sizes).

Text Icons

Hello all,
As a new user I'm apparently not allowed to post links at all until I'm verified. So that means you'll have to a little leg work to find some things if you're interested.
This is my customized phone. I used the same background in my blog; The icons I made in a roundabout way—Bobbyperux over at Deviantart, made a pretty all inclusive tutorial on how to make them. It even had a video. You'll need to know something about Photoshop and have a tiny bit of patience. I changed the font to futura and the color to white. Except for the android market, ha. Little color never hurt anyone. The phone is rooted, non-market apps are enabled, and I can sync to my itunes with ease. Mac user.
Anywho give it a whirl--the icon pack is called up to date icons.
Id like to change my icon set too. Do you have to be using launcherpro or can u change them on the stock TW?
Thx.

The news widget is called buzz box-- its pretty nifty. You can choose from a ton of sources within the actual widget and it updates the news all day. I don't know how it effects battery life, but my captivate seems to be dealing with it just fine.

Yes, its LauncherPro. On the home screen I used Folder Organizer, as LauncherPro could can only change dock icons.

For those using CM6 and miss sense

Before i say anything i say right now i take no credit for any of this work, im only mirroring a thread and spreading the love.
i missed some of the simple parts of sense, like the color and icons and the launcher so i found something to bring it back

Fancy Widget download:http://www.4shared.com/file/17FwFiad/Fancy_Widget_v130.htm
Edit: seems the Vatsense removes the auto brightness toggle, for me this isnt an issue but beware for those who depend upon it
PM me if you have any suggestions for apps,widgets, or any other add-ons that give CM6 a better Sense feel and ill post a link
beautiful widgets make sure its atleast version 3
Thanks works great

Nice Find! works great! Feels like 2.1 sense
if your looking for a HTC Sense flipclock exact replica, get fancy widget.
HTC ripped it off the market, they didnt like it, but if you google for the apk, you can find it... V1.3.0
AND, if your looking for a sense lockscreen, use widget locker,
you can set the UI to Sense under its settings
looks pretty cool.
CM6 undercover!

not many people know this for some odd reason but even before i found this it was possible from the start to change the status bar to any color you choose (purple, red, gree, black...) you would hafta got to CM settings and go into user interface from there and theres alot of options to change the colors and even the transparency of the pulldown bar, text colors, ect.

Reboot.
if that doesn't work, you can go under the notification colors, and under the status bar notifications(the first section), make sure everything is #ffffff
Did all the that and still it stays black. Every thing else is perfect.

Make sure you set it to #ffffffff and after typing in the color code, press the white circle in the center or it won't save.

[LauncherPro Docks] Blue, Green, Red, come check em out!

Hey guys! I've been around here for a while lurkin on my older phones, but since I got the epic I'm finally coming around to posting. Anyhow, I was bored tonight and no overtime came up this weekend so I made up some docks real quick, since mine was getting stale after a month or two. Hope you guys like em. I'm not a photoshop perfectionist so a few flaws may be present. When they are on the phone with their 75ish % Transparency most flaws disappear anyways. When I briefly checked them all, at a glance they all looked fine. So let me know if anythings messed up in any of them, I just run the blue now myself.
Kinda loosely based on the dreamlyfe docks with the side app drawer, but much wider so the tallmin icons fit in them nicely. In fact they were designed with those icons in mind. Let me know what ya think. Feel free to rape them to peices and create your own and re-post em or whatever
Edit: All have 74% Opaque (26% Transparency) for a nice look, and resized to work well with Portrait/Landscape. Tallmin icons will now be readable in either orientation. Wow didnt realize how ugly it was before fixed.
Can u do one with orange plz? Good job by the way!
Sent from my Epic 4G
sure can
Sure I can, later this evening after work. I mostly just change colors with color range select and color change tool so it makes it pretty easy. If anyone else wants a specific color let me know and ill make it. Just figured these 3 were most popular.
On a side note, if anyone wants the non transparent version of any of them just PM me and ill send it your way. Cheers!
Thank u so much!

I guess I am a complete noob lol, how would I install the dock image? I have no clue and I didnt see any option to do it in the LauncherPro settings. Maybe I missed it or I need to put the file somewhere specific?
Preferences => appearance settings => dock background (let's you choose from your photo gallery)

I only know how to DL onto a PC and then xfer to the SD Card. Right click on the image(dock that you want to DL) from the OP and select save as... , then copy the image/file to your phone/SD Card. Now while at the homescreen in LP hit the menu key>preference>appearance settings>dock background>custom>and then you should be able to scroll to the image in the gallery that it brings up

(Q) Standard android/AOSP SMS

So i think one of my only gripes about the captivate right now is its inclusion of the twiz junk. I feel like the SMS app looks like it crawled out of a cartoon.
Ive searched around and am running axuras froyo right now, but does anyone know a way to get AOSP sms on the cap? Id rather not use handcent.
I dont care if its a theme or a rom. Whatever it takes.

replicate screen snapshot lock screen
love the theme just flashed it. However i have a question and im sorry if this is a really bad rookie question, but anyway. On your lock screen i see your clock and how you have the date in words rather than numbers. How do you enable that setting, i would love to have my lock screen identical to that in your screen shot. please let me know. And great work on the theme thanks
