hey guys...
well have a few ques...im runnin cognition 2.2 beta 7...
i cant find the XDA app in the market...cant find many apps in the market....i did look at the build.prop file and the ro.build.fingerprint thing is also set to what is required
what to do? ? ?
also ive been looking for how to mod the lockscreen to swipe to unlock, how to change the time to words etc etc but cant seem to find that! ! !
and any suggestions for cool beautifull widget skins? ? ?
First look for XDA in the market it should be there.
Second if you read the post your home screen thread you will find all the widgets people use there.
And third.... This should be in Q & A
With my phone using Cognition, because it just runs better.
oiii!! sorry for the mistake...i had all the tabs opened so made this thread here by mistake...sorry for that! ! ! i still cant find the xda app though...is there maybe a apk u can provide me with?

Works great we just need to get the Samsung widgets ported over.
It works fine, just needs to be made for smaller screens, i have icons getting cut off on the menu and the text under the icon gets in the way, but it works none the less,
BTW if you try to download the .apk on ur phone from the site. it doesnt seem to download all the way, thats why the people getting the error is gettting it
thanks for the share tho.

I should be able to fix the overlap issues in the menu but there is no point until widgets are available.
**Edit: I found some of the Galaxy widgets, I will try to port them when I get a chance. I get a "app not installed" error when I try to install them. If anyone knows how to get these to work or wants to try just let me know and I'll post them here.
I'm running LauncherPro and if you enable the 3D launcher in the settings, IT WORKS!!!!!!!!! IT IS SO FRICKING COOL
Go to Preferences> Andvaced Settings> Use 3D Launcher
Listy - I havent tried it, but im sure if you push the apps/widgets using adb you should be able to get them in your phone.

In the captivate apps sub there is a guy who does this sort of thing. He posted some of his themes/mods there.
From a phone on an app
Hello guys,
ive been browsing the forum for a while now and been reading alot of guides, and i dont seem to understand how people have achieved to use themes where they have text icons for different apps at the bottom of the screen and such, and different slide options to unlocking the screen.
Im also unsure if this is done via root or not.
Thanks in advance

I'm new to android also but I found this:
lifehacker.com/5627286/battle-of-the-android-home-screen-launchers-adw-vs-launcherpro-vs-helixlauncher
(copy and paste this link because XDA won't let me post links until my account if verified by a moderator)
This was helpful to me and may answer a few questions for you.
Launcher Pro lets you have a sliding dock if thats what youve seen. There is also a paid app that lets you copy custom icons for Launcher Pro your phone (i haven't tried it yet), but i guess all you need are text icons that have a symetrical background and then you will achieve a 'bar' accross the bottom that looks like one solid piece.
Like I said. I'm new to this too but after installing launcher pro and AWD launcher there seems to be a lot of answers to how people are achieving what you're seeing.
Furthermore, to use these launchers you don't have to flash anything. Just install like a regular app. You can then select which one you want to use when the phone boots. Or you can select from a pop up window when you press the 'Home' button.
I'm still trying to find out if I like Launcher Pro or AWD better....
Thank you so much this is exactly what I needed, I'm guessing if I was to install a custom Rom is just back up the paid version.
Thanks once again man

No problem dude, I'm just as new to this as you are...
As far as custom rom's are concerned you can back up the rom if you need to but I think most of the stock roms are are somewhere on this forum anyway if you need to return to stock after flashing a custom one.
I'm still trying to fugure out if I really need a custom rom.
The only thing I think I need is the overclock, which I could do just by flashing a custom kernel..
So far I think the only thing custom roms have that stock doesn't are customised standard apps preinstalled and they also include the overclock in the package. I can remove preinstalled apps with Titanium backup anyway so I'm left wondering what other benefits there are to custom roms.. Maybe someone here can answer this..
Finally.. here's a link to some terminology I found useful
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Terminology
Also here's a link to the icon changer app website for launcher pro
launcherpro.droidicon.com/
Let me know if you go for the custom rom, I'm still thinking about it....
Thinking about the same thing. Probably I will wait until gingerbread gets the custom treatment

hay guys ,, a couple days a go i saw a post a bout how to change your screen lock using widget locker ,,,, well it was a hard work to do ,,,, but i found this you tube video ,,, its about customizing your screen locker using lockbot pro the coool thing a bout it it doesnt need root or any thing just download some mod in png extension and change the lock screen and thats it here is the video
youtube.....com/watch?v=Daf10b4JCfQ
now what he is doing in the video is just basics but i tried it and i have the same results as in widget locker
i dont know if you guys know a bout this or not,,, just wanted to give you an easy way to make your own locker screen
the video is not a spam just remove the extra dots
this looked promising at first glance but it has horrible reviews on the market....enough to make me not even want to try it
Ive been using it for about a week now and had absolutely no problems with it.
LOL! Modifying WidgetLocker is hard?
Explain where it gets tricky, please. Elaborate on the subject.
The problem is that most people want to modify .apks on their device, without a computer. And yes, if you do that you most certainly will run into some problems if you're a n00b. If you do however take ten minutes out of your life and download APKManager you wouldn't have any problems. I used to send people .apks in private when they had problems but I've had to stop. People in general are just lazy, and if it doens't work RIGHT NOW it's hard and stupid.
But even though there are a hundred posts saying "Dude, just ****ing use APKManager already" people insist on choosing the easiest guide to follow: The shortest one. If you don't have the time or interest to modify an app don't even start because you're just gonna waste a lot of thread space. If you on the other hand are interested and have the ten minutes: Use APKManager for all your .apk modding.
/rant.
I like LockBot. It has some neat lockscreens. But I like WidgetLocker better.
lol, i do agree with the above, just sayin, all i did was read the guide by zhk3r and modded and loaded the app within 2 minutes using my computer. but anyways. lockbot is crap imo (well for me), it just didn't want to work properly ;(.
all i am saying if you cant root your phone or cant download a paid app then you have to fined another way
