Home/Lock Screen Snapshots.

I would like to see what other people’s home/lock screens look like.
How do I take a screenshot of mine? Is there an application for that somewhere?
If someone could point me to the best reference areas I would appreciate it.
Thanks.
Please! share your home/lock screens with me.

Hey churapa, there are apps for that, but the Android SDK is the easiest way. Just enable USB debugging, open ddms from the SDK\tools folder, make sure you can see your phone, and press Ctrl+S.
Here's what mine looks like: i.imgur.com/jvaVX.png

It's an apk called "free memory", it manages apks and frees up memory space according to your settings. It's freeware and you can google for it.

I have not attempted to connect my phone to the PC yet, what are the apps that can do this?
Thanks

First, you have to root your phone:

Second, flash the room of your liking, I personally prefer attn1's Liberated B05:

Third, install whichever apk you wish, just read the forums, that way you'll learn hands on the job, believe me, it's the best way to go.

Which themes are you all using to get a black notification bar? I've looked and can't find any.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App

My notification bar came black wen I got my Aria... Check to see if you have android 2.+ I kno my lil sister had a HTC Hero with android 1.6 on it and the notification bar was white but wen I updated it to 2.1 for her and it changed to black so I guess that's wat it is.....o Yea n unless you got a custom rom that changed it... But im juss s noob so ill admit dat I might b completely wrong lol

[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 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

the third screenshot with the calendar .... the settings that pop up when you press the menu button have no text (they do but is black so u cant see it unless you scroll with the trackpad)

very nice cant wait till its done.

I'm trying to decide whether or not it's LauncherPro or framework-res. Probably framework. Try looking into your res folder of your framework-res.apk and compare it with a regular CM6 rom.
IE check everything that says menu, list, background or bg in the folder. One of em is bound to be it. I'm looking through the folder right now but i need to download a rom to compare it with. If it's not in the drawable image folders, I assume it's a simple color. So check the Menu XMLs in the Drawable folder.

Ok im out with friends right now, and i think its gonna get late. But tomorrow ill see what i can do
Edit: i think u should remove the smart keyboard link, cause its paid. But im gonna pm it to u as soon as im done.

Yes, but that only works for .png if u do that with .9.png u mess it up completely. The only thing u could do with .9.png is to let them run through a specific script (read the name somwhere on the net but cant remember) and just change the rgb values. Besides that i never tried it and cant tell if it works, theres still the problem, that u couldnt just make blue outlines on the keys or fade the bg from black to blue.
If u've been able to do that, tell me how, coz i never got .9.png to work without compiling them in an app.

That's why I was so confused on why you guys were trying to modify the skin of the keyboard from the .apk. The actual application supports themes that makes it easier. It's like trying to reskin CM7 when there's a built-in theme manager. Just use the theme manager, it gets the job done easy and quick.
Enjoy.

Custom Splash Screens + Requests

Solar's Splash Screen Thread
I will be creating and uploading splash screens for use on our Thunderbolts. They are going to be generally simplistic as that is my personal taste but...
I am also taking requests:
Simply link an image here (Cropped or not - I can crop it if needed) and I will do the rest. Yes, it is an easy task but some people would rather have others do it for them and it will give me something to do
For best results use images that are 480 by 800 pixels or bigger. If it IS smaller than those dimensions I will either need to stretch the picture out or center it which in either case wouldn't look great.
The only way I will even bother with images smaller than those dimensions is if the background is white and it will look good centered. I am doing this to keep the quality of these splash screens up.
PM NOTIFICATIONS
From now on, as soon as your splash screen is uploaded and added to the thread I will send you a PM so that you can come and download it. That way, you don't have to keep checking back to see if it's done or not. If you DO NOT want me to send you a PM and would rather check the post yourself, at the end of your request just say 'NO PM' and you won't receive one.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (As per Rom-Addict's Thread)
- Rename to PG05IMG.zip
- Place on root of sd card(not in a folder)
- Boot into boot-loader
- You will see:
- 'Update splash'
- Select yes update splash
- Wait... When done:
- Select reboot

Alright got the first one done.
The other 2 are a bit small for a splash screen and won't come out that good as they will either be stretched or have weird white borders on them. I edited the OP to mention the size they need to be in order for them to turn out well.
I was able to do the Soul Eater one as it already had a white background and looked good centered.

Ahh. Didnt know that about being too small. I'll see if i can find some larger ones after work, but thanx for doing the one.
