I want the Windows Phone 7 lockscreen for Android, I tried it with Typoclock but the font is too big and it's just not looking like the lockscreen.
The combination of the clock, calendar & "dock" widgets is just awesome. It should be possible to do the same on android isn't it?
And whats about the transparent statusbar, I know it looks creepy just as you start something else like launcher or any app, but isnt it possible to color it as you start an app?
thanks
I second this. I'd certainly cough up a cheeky 99p for this. If I can help with my little to no knowledge of app development let me know. (p.a. this should probably be moved to the general Android apps and themes forum)
No one else? Just tried Minimalistic Text Widget but the Font is too big and it's not looking like the Screen above. Any ideas?
Hello, you can try Widgetlocker ("to create a lockscreen") then put Pure Calendar widget and Mclock widget! That's all! Mclock is the only free one......

It'll be totally awesome if someone can make this lockscreen(the clock, date, notification,... and also the swipe up the whole screen to unlock), I really like the design of it.
Jepp and MIUI is using different notificationbars too. Like on homescreen its transparent and in apps its plain. I would so love to get the design with a totally transparent notificationbar and all the other stuff.
I've got to say, WP7 lockscreen looks very sweet, wish somenone made it for Android. The one on the black Nokia on the left seems really cool:
I have been looking for widgets likethis for ages but can't find anything as good as the wp7 ones
minimalistic text is the closest one but it's not as elegant as the wp7 one

Is it possible to make widgets that look like those that are found in the hero roms, for a regular home screen? Do you think it would be posible to port the aesthetics over to widgets for the other home apps? because those by and far knock out the current widgets in the looks department.
Just an idea.
I second that. I would love to see full screen Weather widget with some animation.... and a bookmark widget... and Twitter widget... and Email widget.... I want all of them!!!!!
Would like this too...Any devs interested?
Count me in ! i also want all these widgets especially the message widget, our G1 are nt fully using 3D.
Does anyone know of a clock widget that is or can be made to look like the clock that is on the Froyo lock screen?
Free would be nice, but not required. I really like the font for the lockscreen clock.
Also, Im running cm6 stable.
i imagine beautiful widgets would have at least one skin matching your criteria. the skin i'm using atm looks fairly similar to the lock clock . See my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728911 for an example (and the background/weather/blue can be removed).

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
One More Clock (Collection) by Xaffron Software does it well. 4x2 size is free but you can "donate" to get different sizes or if you can resize it with LauncherPro (recommended app) if you have it. Just do "One More Clock" in the market.
ClockWidget by Skipper Juul Thors0 is another, but just the time, no date.
The font is called "Clockopia".
I tried BeautifulWidgets, not free, and although they have the font, they have a lot that I have no need for (yet) so I'm getting a refund (for now).
Hey guys,
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S yesterday and loving the transition from iPhone to Android.
After talking to some android experts on a IRC, i have been able to install Android Froyo 2.2. The latest version. I have installed Odin and Voodoo Lag Fix. I have used quadrant and compared results before installing odin etc. I am not a root user currently and don't know how to be one on 2.2.
Now I want to install custom themes and icons. But I have no clue what to do. Like no idea.
I want my SGS to eventually look this.

I am really into designing and will want to eventually create my own skins so I am taking baby steps, and want to first learn how to install other peoples themes that they have made etc.
Looking forward to all your answers.
Thanks
Looks to me like they're using launcher pro.
The first one would be the hardest to get because you'll have to change the icons one by one using an app found in the market called desktop visualizer. It allows you to place png files (pictures) as icons and assign a certain task to each one along with renaming them. They're are also using fancy widget for the clock or beautiful widgets. The status bar on top is most likely changed by a rom or theme.
The second one is very easy. All it is is launcher pro with it's dock icons (icons at the bottom) changed out. With wallpaper found in many wallpaper apps. A custom clock most likely found in the market and custom text clock and percentage widgets. Check out clockr if you want a text clock.
The third one again appear to be using launcher pro. Which by the way a home replacement app. Extended control app for the toggles. digital clock app found int the market. And a custom status bar.
I currently using have a G2 and I'm on cyanogenmod rom which allows altering aka customizing your status bar.
i don't proof read my post so forgive or my spelling and grammar.
You best bet to finding out the exact apps are going to the vibrant forums and looking for the huge homescreen picture thread and asking for help or asking with widgets they used. I'm sure if you'll find alot more answers there.
Edit: Better yet. Commonly used widgets.

Hi folks,
See, I'm considering making my own themes for my Motorola Defy with Launcherpro, and atm I'm researching for tutorials on how to achieve certain results, but one thing that's bugging me is the default icon size of android. It seems to me that there's too much wasted space in padding between icons. I really like the looks of UI's like MIUI or even iOS in the way that you can actually have big icons to see, press or gloat about
Most solutions suggest using bettercut or Desktop visualizer, but it strikes me the fact that I must fill my desktop with widgets when all I want is just a shortcut. Also, these solutions don't apply to the app drawer, and it's a shame that we have acces to awesome icon packs such as Suave or AresHD and we must have them confined to 0.05 sq inches screen space.
Can this be done by fiddling around with framework.apk or is it much more difficult?
Thanks guys!
Use ADW Launcher. You can change the columns/rows in both your desktop and app drawer.
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adw.launcher
And if you like it, I highly suggest upgrading to:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adwfreak.launcher
Isn't there any NON-Launcher dependant way to do it? I mean, as far as I know the icons are arranged in a grid pattern be it one launcher or another. What I'd like to know is if tere's any way of altering the "padding" in the grid spaces.
Anyone?

bump!.....
It's launcher dependent.
If you're savvy enough you can decompile your ROM and build it as you see fit.
Hi there, I saw this skin and widgets on the Minimal Reader Pro market page and I fell in love with it. Problem is, I have no clue what skin/widget they are and how I can recreate it. Can anyone help?
Specifically I would like to know the weather widget and skin and the time/clock widget/skin along with the background used if possible!
Thanks a bunch!
Looks like simiclock, and. Beautiful Widgets, with transparent Genie widget.
Regards
Hi ! I'm the dev of Minimal Reader, the widgets I used in that screen are Simiclock and Beautiful widgets in 4x1 weather mode with Flat white theme.
The icons are from Minimal theme for ADW Launcher, and the background is from the honeycomb wallpapers that you can find easily on google (can't post it now sorry I'm at work )
But really, that is an old screenshot, I've improved my "minimal theme" on my SGS i9000 and it's now looking better than ever. I will post some screenshots along with the Minimal Reader update that I should have finished by tomorrow.
Keep an eye on the widget thread for new screenshots
Cheers !
