I hate the touchdown widgets. I have taken the liberty and modified the apk for anyone that hates it as much as I do. All I have done so far was theme /edit the mail and calender widgets and I modified the text from black to white. They are transparent with smoke borders. Past due appointments will still show red. Be easy on me as this is my first android mod! Feedback is welcome as well!
All you need to do is install the trial version of touchdown located below and be sure to license it! If anyone wants to give me a quick rundown of MM i'd be happy to modify the install procedure. The apk is for android 2.0 devices.
Thanks!!

Hey thanks for doing these...
I tried the zip file on my Desire with Touchdown 6.2.0012 but I still get the nasty widgets from Touchdown...
Any idea why this would be? I used ROM Manager to flash the zip file.
Can you tell me which font you are using?

Do you know if there is any way to make simple counting widgets for Touchdown?
I'd really like to have three widgets that do this:
Email: shows unread email count. When tapping on the widget, it takes you to the email portions of TD.
Tasks: Shows unfinished tasks count. When tapping on the widget, it takes you to the task portion of TD.
Calendar: Shows the number of remaining appts. for today. When tapping on the widget, it takes you to the calendar portion of TD.
Hey, thanks for this stuff.

Hi All,
Been kinda scarce around here lately, since I was checking in today to see what's happening i thought I would share some stuff I put together. The tsk is based off a wallpaper I found at deviant art I think it was from Ken Saunders from mouserunner, The images in the icons i just picked up off the web and tweaked them to suit my needs.
I know everybody is going to manilla 2d but personally I'm going to wait till all the bugs are worked out by the genius's around here before i switch.
Enjoy

What's the name of the program that's at the very bottom of your phone. I like it. It looks like a continuation of the HTC home plugin.
Do you know if you can customize those shortcuts or anything of the sort?
its battery status (now home screen plus plus ), and yes you can pretty much do anything with it if you can set up an xml file.
can these be loaded with HHC (HTC Home Customizer)?
sure, just drop the file in the correct folders in program files, htc home customizer, and then choose whatever you would like.
OK, thanks.
btw i get an app execution error about a missing file from HHV V1.0Final so I will have to revert to 0.8 i guess
hmmm, I have v1.0 and it seems to work just fine on my device, I actually copied the files right off my phone , zipped em up and posted , let me know if there is anymore trouble.
great stuff, thanks
could you remind me of the name of the lower icon bar today plugin ?
thanks,
battery status/ homee screen plus plus, your welcome im glad you like it

use htc home customizer, I tried to upload it but somethings not working, you'll find it if you do a search.Install it then find the files folder in the program and drop the icons in the icon folder, you can then open up hhc and choose the icons. Hope that helps
I really like this clock:
{
"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"
}
However it takes up far too much space on the home screen. I was wondering whether anyone has managed to modify these widgets?
If it was the same as the small version of this clock:
This is not possible cuz of closes code of HTC's Apps
I was hoping it was possible. I've worked out how to add additional clocks at the same size (anyone good at graphics design could make some nice new ones), but I haven't figured out how the OS deals with the small clocks yet.
it's probably easier to create a new Android widget clock that fits the size you need. I do agree that a lot of those HTc Hero clocks take up way too much space. They are 4x3 widgets, but if you look at them, some resizing could easily take them 4x2. I'd find someone willing to make a new widget which would then work on the Hero and any other android phone as well.
Oh well. I'm not in a development mood at the moment. Will have to look at it at a future date.
Why not look here: /system/etc/clockwidget/
Looks like this is where the clocks are kept... No reason why you cannoy edit or add to what is already there....

I have already played around with those parts. Although the layout.properties file looks promising the spanX and spanY settings seem to be ignored. I resized the images, changed positions of the hands which worked, but it still occupied the same area of the screen (all be it with my visible space).
Have any ideas?
Maybe the settings are loaded somewhere else or they cannot be changed when rosie is running?

Well I pushed a new configuration and restarted the phone, but no luck
Turns out another dev has done A LOT of work on clocks, see below:

Hello there
i've been recently trying to make my own theme for CM. I've been quite successful so far, however i am still having some problems / questions...
- Buttons. i can't seem to be able to skin these... i used the blur's button .png's (which work fine un-edited) as they are RGB formatted... however, when i redraw the buttons, pixel by pixel, to the shape i want, it ends up being quite ugly-formatted:
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
i am using gimp to edit those files... any hints there?
- Widgets. Where are those located?
another question...
how to invert the list view colors? like in settings?
First, use photoshop. Better rendering, better options. I know gimp is free and photoshop is insanely expensive, but its worth the trade, especially if you're going to be doing lots of theming (batch scripting operations for color-modding multiple files=win).
Second, as far as the widgets go, those are going to be in the individual apks of the program running the widgets, not in the drawable system folder.
for the problem with the buttons not being rendered correctly on the phone, read this guide on how to sign .9.png files. after you do that, the images will look correct on the phone.

okay... i've got PS here, tried to install it too, but it just keeps on saying That it failed while verifying... gotta get it to run then...
alright, so for launcher widgets the files are in Launcher.apk?
power control widget = settings.apk
music widget = music.apk
calendar = calendarprovider.apk
analog clock widget = alarmclock.apk
picture frame widget = gallery.apk (last time i checked)
search widget = launcher.apk
Sorry, I wasn't real sure where to put this. The screen shot pretty much says it all.
I'm using the theme here, for MIUI, yet this happens on all the popular dark themes I've tried. It's very hard to see the gray text containing address info against the gray background with the popup results menu in Google Navigation.
Is there an easy fix for this? Thanks.

I've always had the same problem. Never found a solution except to use light themes.

LOL??? thanks for pointing this out.. i just spotted this in my theme and totally missed it.. so im going to work on this right away!!
Certainly, it's like this on a lot of themes, even the default on.
I know it's part of the framework, but I don't know what specifically needs to edited to change this without affecting the rest of the theme.
Have you tried this:
(I'm using a French rom, so all the terms I'm going to use may be not the good ones in English..)
Go to Settings, Applications Manager, search and tap on Google Navigation in your apps list, then de-activate Compatibility Mode.. It worked for me with some unreadable white on white texts..
If it doesn't work (sorry about it, first.. ), just re-activate Compatibility Mode (just in case)
I'm using an AT&T Note 3 with DashClock installed for my lock screen.
When coming back to my phone my lockscreen shows something like this.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
In order to get more information I have to manually drag the widget to make it bigger every time. After I drag it down or scroll to a new screen and back it shows up like this:
From this screen I'm able to just tap the notification and load the corresponding app. I am used to this functionality from my previous iphones. Is there any way to automatically load the widget as it appears in the 2nd pic above?
Thanks.
It looks like this is a feature in Android.
"People...Built by design, stock 4.2.X has the 'main' lock screen widget shrunk so that you have full access to the lockscreen slider right away after unlocking. You'll need a non-stock/custom ROM (AOKP/CM) that has such option built into it, allowing for main lockscreen to be expanded as soon as the phone is unlocked. This isn't an 'app' issue/fix but stock ROM related. "

Xposed has a maximize widget module for this. That is if you are rooted.
