It's great. I love the qwerty KB on it.!
Anyone know if its coming out in the UK anytime soon?

Of course. The 'nine sixteen' is a clock. I totally did not get that the first time I saw it. You may be able to achieve something similar with 'make your own clock ' widget.

I think that isn't a home screen its a lock screen. Although I thought it looked pretty awesome when I first saw it and having that lock screen in portrait would be cool.

(Q) Standard android/AOSP SMS

So i think one of my only gripes about the captivate right now is its inclusion of the twiz junk. I feel like the SMS app looks like it crawled out of a cartoon.
Ive searched around and am running axuras froyo right now, but does anyone know a way to get AOSP sms on the cap? Id rather not use handcent.
I dont care if its a theme or a rom. Whatever it takes.

replicate screen snapshot lock screen
love the theme just flashed it. However i have a question and im sorry if this is a really bad rookie question, but anyway. On your lock screen i see your clock and how you have the date in words rather than numbers. How do you enable that setting, i would love to have my lock screen identical to that in your screen shot. please let me know. And great work on the theme thanks

Hd widgets

Just download a great, completely customizable weather, clock, settings widget. It's only 99 cents on the market right now. Perfect for my ever changing homescreen. So many themes. Give it a look. I added a couple of pics to show some of the colors and sizes.

I assume you're the developer. I could be wrong. I like the appearance of the widgets, are there anything more than the weather/clock widgets?
Thanks
Bought it. It's awesome. The widgets looks very elegant on my xoom's screen. The variety of widget sizes and looks make this one a great buy!
I was lucky enough to beta test this widget and it was a pleasure watching the developers upgrade and fix it over several months. They are quick to resolve issues and I purchased it as soon as it became available on market.
Edit: @ Saintfyre, the main 8x2 widget allows the forcast on right to be switched with a control panel similar to a power control widget. Things like BT, screen rotation, wifi can all be turned on/off. Beyond that, theyre just weather and clock. Its a replacement for Beautiful widgets.
@OP. What is the Theme you are using? And what is the small up arrow in the center of your notification bar?
First app I bought without much research, saw one review and small review at that in a blog, very happy I bought it, very nice widgets.
I decided to pick it up and was beating my head against the wall because I couldn't get the widgets to appear in the Xoom widget menu after long-pressing. Simple reboot takes care of it, for those who scratch their head like I did after configuring one and trying to find out how to place it. I like what I see so far. Thanks devs!

I believe he's either using a Galaxy Tab 10.1 or has found a way to run TouchWiz UX on a Xoom. Probably the first one. The arrow would be the shortcut TW has for the mini apps.

Sorry not the developer, just letting people know about the widget that I liked.
Yes, not a theme, I use a galaxy tab 10.1 now, but old habits like this forum die hard.

In your 3rd pic on the top you are using something that has large buttons as folders. What program does that?
Ok, while you're at it, where did you get that wicked Star Trek wallpaper? /drool
The folders are two apps. Desktop visualizer is a free app that lets you take almost any small picture and use it for a launcher button of any app or bookmark. Then you can resize it to whatever dimensions you want. I have that widget working with the app called folder organizer lite. You can put all your apps into different folders. Apply your own icon and resize away. It saves alot of screen area so you don't have 100 apps taking up real estate. I can post some pics if you want to see what it looks like. Both apps are free in the market.
And here is the uss enterprise wallpaper. But you have to use the multipicture live wallpaper (free) in order to get it to display correctly. Honeycomb crops the sh!# out of it.

[Q] Blotchy wallpaper on the lock screen...

Hey all. Somehow, certain wallpaper on the lock screen looks like [email protected] I mean it has those banding/gradient/blotchy appearance (especially dark/black ones). Although, when I view on the gallery it looks fine, and even if I use it as a home screen wallpaper it's okay.
Is this a problem with my screen or something else? It's just on the lock screen though, so I'm a bit stump on what's going on.
Thanks.

I love widget locker, but I use a pattern lock on my screen, I and up doing twice the work opening my phone. Unless I can lock my phone with widget locker?
Thanks.

Nope, WL doesn't support locking. So what's it going to be? Safety or great looking blacks?

lol. I'll stick with safety...
Like I've said earlier, some wallpaper doesn't exhibit this anomaly...So I'll use those, of course, as always the case, the one wallpaper that I really want to use is the one that looks like crap. lol.

Alternate lockscreens on ICS?

Was wondering if anyone knows of a way you can get a different lockscreen for ICS, I prefer the old rotary one, or the reeally old one with a tab on one side for vibrate/loud and a tab on the other side to unlock.
Not a big fan of the pull the ring up to unlock, or slide the lock icon into the correct spot.
magic locker,go locker,or widget locker on the market
I shall check them out, thank you very much.

MIUI locker works pretty good, the ICS themed one I downloaded broke everything though.
Download widget locker! It may seem somewhat expensive but it is well worth it. The ICS lockscreen is identical to stock. You can also download other themes for it off the web
