First off, yes, I was inspired by these two icon sets here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742449
I simply love that idea. I'm just not crazy about Airal or Agency FB; so I took the idea and slapped on ITC's Avant Garde Gothic Std. (in two different weights). I did stick with UltraLinx's color scheme though.
For those who aren't familiar with Avant Garde, this is one of my favorite examples:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I haven't yet decided if I'm going to add the alternative characters into my icons like the above example uses. I'm installing PhotoShop cs5 tonight and if it makes it any easier to access the glyphs than cs4 does, they will definitely be included.
At the moment I have 42 icons that correspond with the following applications:
Amazon MP3
App Launcher
ASTRO
Battle.net Authenticator
BattStatt
Browser
Calculator
Calendar
Camera
Clock
Contacts
Dev Tools
DSPManager
Email
Facebook
Gallery
Gmail
Google Goggles
Handcent SMS
Latitude
Maps
Market
Messaging
Music
Navigation
News and Weather
Phone
Places
Retro Camera
Ringdroid
ROM Manager
Settings
Spare Parts
Speech Recorder
Stopwatch
Superuser Permissions
GTalk
Terminal Emulator
Twitter
Videos
GVoice
Voice Dialer
Voice Search
YouTube
Now I just need help pairing it with a nice status bar; and really I'm open to any other suggestions. So if anyone would be willing to help me smash it all together in a theme (either for CM6 or ADWLauncher) I would greatly appreciate it!

One of the main functions of my current smart phone is PIM functionality. I like to have my calendar up front. For example, this is my current home screen (via SPB Mobile Shell for WinMO):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Just a small amount of calendar, but shows my next two upcoming appointments.
I haven't seen any Android screen shots showing such a screen. Anyone know if there are widgets for any of the Android home screens to havef a calendar showing?
The rest of the items on the screen are links to my most commonly used things.
Agenda Widget
I use Agenda Widget that ties in with google calendar. It provides widgets for a plethora of X by Y sizes.
ByteWrencher
I use Pure Calendar Widget
Hey man, your photobucket image got deleted. However, +1 on the Pure Calendar Widget. It's very nice, and very customizable. Though I wonder why nobody has made a live wallpaper of the calendar with your appointments floating in the background. Sigh, if only I were a developer
Calwidget
simple. no scroll. text and back ground color/transparency configurable.
+1 to Calwidget! Very good app
Wow, Calwidget is Perfect!
I am currently using Pure Calendar, and its great IMO. Also using adw launcher so its scrollable. Really its about fully customizable. I've only used a couple of other calendar apps, when I found this one I stopped looking.

Hello XDA friends,
How many apps on Play Store that sync your notes with Google Task? Many!
But since I didn t feel confortable with any of them I decided to make mine, with an alternative Holo UI, that take inspiration from Google Now, Google Keep, and made it more intuitive.
The app is mainly designed to make you feel all the features in your hands, even using a smartphone (tested on my 4.3" Galaxy S2 display) and offer simultaneusly 2 type of navigation: dropdown (useful to skip from a list to another when number of lists is huge) and swype.
This app as stated before lets you sync your current task with Google Task, so everything is synced to every device you got, with your PC and tablet, android, iOS and Windows!
Isn t it great?
Support to Password, Reminders, Due Date, all your lists are available and you ll never lose a meeting anymore thanks to notification feature (expanded notification for android 4.1+ users).
A touch of color to help you highlight your actions, nice animations and a complete settings menu to customize your app, your sincs, your passwords, your notifications.
THIS IS NOT MY WORK BUT THE WORK OF Mirko ddd,JUST THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE IT
Please visit Mirko ddd thread and click thanks
LINK TO THE APP HERE
ooooooh thanks Wis!

Grained Icon Pack
I put together some icons for my own use a while ago and finally got around to putting them all in an installable icon pack. Its not an extensive pack but I'm open to requests. Just let me know what you're missing and I’ll do my best to put new icons in - asap. All other icons are cut and scaled on a unified template (see picture below).
This Icon Pack should work on most launchers. I’ve seen it work on Nova and ssLauncher. Let me know if you have problems on anything else.
Download
P.S. Please let me know if something isn’t working – its my first icon pack and I may have missed some things putting it together.
I'm really grateful for any feedback and corrections.
Special thanks go to: iamareebjamal. I used his Guide and the template therein to start building this icon pack – a great help.

Got my phone debloated yesterday and started adapting it to my preferences.
I was very happy with the look and widget functionality on my P30 Pro and ideally would like to replicate it.
Here is a screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",

"lightbox_share": "Share",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I am using Nova and an icon pack called 7null, but this is no longer available on the appstore - and can't find it on my phone.
Not a big deal.
The widget showing the time is Zooper which unfortunately is not longer available. I love this widget as it's extremly customisable - I chose to have it connected to my google calender so it always shows the next event. Phone temp not important. Tapping the clock takes me to the alarm, tapping calender opens google calendar.
I tried to transfer the app and downloaded it as APK from the web, but nothing happens when I try to install.
Anyone know if it's possible to install or if there is another widget that has a similar look/funtionality?
The next calender event is number 1 for me. The option on the phone right now just showing the entire calendar month.
thanks!
Reinstalled the Vivo store which enabled me to install the APK - now I just need to figure out how to remove the widget name without losing the app names
try this
go to setting->Home screen,lock screen & wallpaper->home screen settings->icon style,size & name->turn off show icon name
tried that but that removes app names which I need. I just want the widget name gone. Never had widget names displayed on other phones
