[Q] using widgetlocker on nook color - Nook Color General

hey all,
Can anyone help me get a custom lockscreen working? I'm using widgetlocker, and I want unlock on the left and a program shortcut on the right... these two things are on the same bar. whenever I try to select a specific app or program, widgetlocker seems to crash then restart. I've seen others on these forums have accomplished this, but no one has explained how. any ideas?

I use WidgetLocker on my NC.
You can't use shortcuts to programs at all unfortunately. It auto-crashes WidgetLocker.
Not much you can do.
And I doubt the author would care to research why it does this on the NC.
Only thing I can think of is to ask if this happens on a Galaxy Tab too.

Possibly, but here's the deal- I got the idea in my head after looking at this page ht tp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=860404&page=17 (sorry can't post links... just remove the space from "ht tp")
About 3 posts from the top, you will see a lockscreen with Dolphin Browser on the right. Either this is a cruel trick, or there's some workaround WE just don't know about... and I'm betting on the latter.

Wait for the next version, it has its own app picker. Also has 8x8 grid.

Nah, semi-closed beta I guess. He gave some folks a beta, it has a few bugs, he has another one planned, not sure if it'll be the released version or another beta. But it's nice having 8x8 and an app picker (nice he fixes basically a NC-specific issue!), some other changes I think.

You know who's a REALLY good beta tester? That Kbassil kid. You should pass that on, I think.

Send him an email, just go to the market on the app and click it from there, he'll probably add you in if he has additional builds.
BTW he has sent a new build. Couple small quirks, but pretty nice stuff.

hah- went to his app in the Maket and it says " please stop asking Mr about my next update..." lol

[Q] HTC Hero Sprint Icon Question

Is it possible to change icons? If so, how?
My phone is rooted, and using the stock rom it came with from Sprint.
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Software: 2.27.651.5
Thanks for the help!
If you use launcher pro from the market as your launcher you can change the icons and the name too...
Long press on a blank space and add the app you want...tap on its picture to load your gallery and choose whatever icon you would like...there are plenty to download...

Hm.. That's a quick way, thanks Vandelay007. Do you happen to know a way without using Launcher Pro though? Oddly enough, I like the default launcher.

Download Desktop Visualizer from the Market. Allows you to put custom icon shortcuts anywhere on your desktop for just about anything. You can't change any of the taskbar or menu icons, but it does allow you to change/customize any icons you put on your desktop home screens.

I'll definitely use this way next time though. You can't imagine how long it takes a "n00b" to find the Folder shortcut icon.

Looks like he did... I have to say, if this guy describes himself as a noob, and he managed to search and figure out how to theme without needing to aska lot of questions, I shudder to think what we have to call the people who not only don't know what they're talking about, but also can't search for it...
You can't believe how happy I am to see search work that well. It kind of scares me how happy I am.

Haha, thanks for the compliment! It really wasn't that hard to be honest. Just resize the png, rename it, and find where to put it. Once you figure out that you can open .apk files with 7zip, the rest is a cake walk!
The problem with most n00bs is that they don't want to get their hands dirty... and the laziness! Haha.

How to install animated backgrounds??

well i found many posts on people showing there backgrounds with downloads and stuff but they never explain how to install or use them. i was wondering if anyone know a post to re direct me to or website that could help me install them. or just tell me here if you feel like it.
(on the side note can the Zio even use animated backgrounds?)
ya, they are called live wallpapers and there is a whole mess of them on the market. As far as installing, they install the same way everything from the market does. When you want to use them click the "menu" and then "wallpaper" and choose "live wallpapers" from the list. Ther is also a website where you can surf these wall papers.

this is very odd. when i go to my menu and hit wallpaper only 3 things show up Gallery/ID Wallpapers/Wallpapers and they arnt in any of them.
Its weird because i did install them just fine but they don't seem to be anywhere on the phone?

You should have live wallpapers. They were preloaded on the 2.2 update. You may have to redo the update.

Of course Sprint might not have included the live wallpapers in their update.

Thats almost impossible. They would have to write out the api. I dont think they would waste their time.
I could backup the live wallpapers.apk and you could try to install it.

Out of curiousity, when a new release of CM7 is made, will I have to wait for this theme to be updated, or can I flash the previous release?

Its better to wait till the theme gets updated. Im pretty fast though, once I see a new CM7 I should have an update up within a few minutes to a few hours.
There should be a new CM7 tonight according to a slayher tweet, hope you can get this skin updated for it quickly, really liking the look.

Htc sense 7 launcher for s6/s6 edge

HTC SENSE 7 LAUNCHER FOR S6/S6 EDGE​
Ok guys, so far this is just a base for a project, currently my device doesn't have root, therefore I'm doing what i can without. Therefore here is the sense 7 launcher working that can be installed on your Galaxy S6/Edge. Install both APK'S
Once/IF we get root i can definitely get things working better. However, in the meantime, when placing widgets you can jut tap them, and move them later.

Have you been able to get widgets added? That seems broken for me, but blinkfeed is infinitely superior to briefing so I may still keep it. Also theming and social integration are broken too, though I suspect those depend on other apps and frameworks specific to htc devices.
try this
i install and work fine

Installed the plugins and it seems to have allowed social integration on blinkfeed and some theme support, but i still cant get widgets to apply on the sense home launcher. I go to the adding screen but when i drag the widget i want to the screen, nothing happens.
