Database Develop

Consider making this home replacement.

I won't get picky about it.
But particularly I believe a world of a lot of g1 users, root and non root would really appreciate a home replacement that allows the user to do the following.
Choose which apps to show in the app drawer.
And the ability to move apps out into the "add to home screen" feature that shows up when you longpress the home screen/menu-add. In a new sub section called hidden apps/roughly around there.
So applications to prevent theft on the g1 could be hidden there over being spotted in the app drawer.
:]
Just an idea.

It is a good idea. Should post it in the dream applications+games section Though.

A layered app menu would be nice...

I was thinking that since the hero widget can't be ported to a normal g1 someone could try to use Sweeter home's layer option for an sms type widget similar to the hero.
I think it could work out very well since you can add layers and transparency.

An option to hide the apps in the tray would be nice!! I'm down for that.

Haha I know! Lately I've been bothered at having a very long app drawer, and apps like Photovault, password storage apps,and other not so commonly used apps would just fit beautifully in that new folder I'm suggesting.
I'm trying to keep this thread alive with hopes that a dev will see it and take the challenge so keep this thread alive :]

If anyone could do this, it would be the folks over at Better Android (OpenHome). In my humble opinion, they have the best home app on the market. You should forward this request to them!

I would like to, but half the time I've ever emailed better home they've done nothing but send me minimal short dissatisfying responses. But yea I use Open Home/have bought it.
Currently running Cyans build with the a hero theme or some widgets works fine enough with me.
But idk I think A home has a better go about things like this.
And of course Sweeter home is my favorite.

Yeah not sure why folders in the menu havent been figured out yet...I was almost sure someone would have cracked that missing feature long ago...

i would love a folder app or a tab app to put in the drawer,
you can hide icons, or make a whole tab of just games.
also, i wish there was a app that would lock icons on the main screens.
so nobody can move the icons unless you activate them.
anyone get my drift?

Better Android Says:
That's a good idea, although 'hiding' apps from the app drawer wont provide any securities because they are plenty to launch an app once you get pass the lock screen.

I sent him back an email saying that it would still help to weed out duplicates (like having a shortcut, and in the app drawer). I didn't get a response back on that one.
I would like to see this though.

Yea if we made a larger up roar about it and got more emails to the betterandroid guys they'd pretty much have to do it

Ive just made something like this.... you can "throw" away the application shortcuts from the app drawer and "restore" them using an added menu..

Haha rogro82 beat me to it.
I was gonna link his thread, but i guess he already linked his own.
Maybe you should provide screenshots and more details.
Thanks!

MY 2 cents
So far I love the suggestions and it sounds great.
Have you seen DxTop? I used it for a while and loved the one swipe to any of the 4 screens, maybe something like that. Maybe the ability to add more or subtract screens.
And always keep it fast.
I have heard that there is a mod that allows up to 10 screens, but I haven't found it yet. Please PM me if you know what mod I am talking about.
Thanks.

retske - Just so you're aware, the app that rogro linked to just a few posts above does all those things without needing to install bloatware (except for the "1 swipe" thing...what's a tap or 2 more?).

Good Idea Zalith
The walls are very nice, but don't you think 320 X 320 for QVGA will appear narrower than they really are ?

I take it you're using the 'old style' Today screen, and not M2D or the Titanium panel...? Unfortunately, that is a problem with the newer WM 6.5 beta builds, it started happening in build 23*** I think. I'm still looking for a solution to that..

You can switch by going to Start > Settings > Personal > Home, then switch to the 'Items' tab and select 'Windows Default'. That will enable the Titanium / CHome Panel.
On the left is the 'old style' home screen (doesn't have very much on it, but you can choose a bunch of different components for it; Tasks, Messaging, etc.), on the right is the newer 'Titanium' or 'CHome Panel':
Note: If you have any questions more detailed than this, please do a search on XDA-Dev and you'll see a lot more information..

I've already done that before.. But still the same..

[REQUEST] Metal Gear Solid codec dialer.apk

i feel like this would be a solid hit, especially against i*hone lovers that are mgs fans too. any interest?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYN1yz5lU8A

Word!! Metal Gear Solid is an epic game, would love to see it integrated into the captivate

that would be awesome I'm gonna sit down tonight and see what I can do but idk no promises.

Here are two notification sounds I have for anyone interested. One is the codec sound, and the other is the gaurd alert sound.

Bump the eff out of this!

Been a hardcore fan of mg since day one on my nes. If you pull this off I will pay at least 20 usd for a dialer. And 50 usd for a theme, or at least system sounds replacement.

I used Ringdroid from the market to convert the mp3 into a ogg file. It also puts the file where you choose, (alarm, notification, ringtone). Im sure there's other ways, but that's how I did it.

Just checking for update. This is my most anticipated relelase for my captivate since day one of ownership.

thanks worked like a charm

I've been in the hospital and away from my desktop for the last few days but I have pretty good idea for tackling this so once I get home I'll make a mock up and we'll see what we can do.

let me be clear about this, there are a lot of metal gear themes out there, all of which incorporate character models as icons this is the kind of thing I do not like.
I would rather really like to see icons made out of pick up items, or the L1 R1 item weapons scroll windows, ( you know the ones black box w/Red single line drawings) the socom; rations; and the cardboard box a.
when I press keys on my keyboard I want to hear the socom silenced pistol shot. Do you catch my drift?
my mind goes so deep all the details that I can imagine, however I do not have technical ability to make my dreams come true.

i wish i could have a filter over my contacts picture to make it look like the original game. i have a picture for most every contact so that would be cool. dialer in the middle with a number display above, mostly a black theme/background.
would be sweet with the original sound effects. and the gingerbread lock animation??? SICKKKK!!!

[THEME] Bionix-v Pandora Widget v2.2

UPDATE(4/3/2012): NEW Pandora ICS Now Available! Get it Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24410421#post24410421
VERSION 2.2 IS HERE. BY FAR MY BEST WORK YET!
NEW BLUE 2.2 First attempt and completely different Check it out in POST #22
Now let me start off by saying this is my first attempt at anything like this. So please go easy on me people...What we have here is a Bionix themed pandora widget. I am currently using this widget and I believe it looks great under the google search. Below are three screen shots and the APK. For some reason after altering it, the apk can only be installed in system apps using root explorer you then have to manually change permissions to rw-r-r, then reboot. This is the most up to date pandora. Make sure orginal version is unstalled before installing this. I thank you for your time people and please leave me some feed back and let me know how I have done... ... O and big respects to Som and all of team whiskey your roms are the Best!!!!
V2.2
-Removed border around widget skin
-Changed all widget icons to have a more 3D feel
-Pandora logo also has same 3D feel
-Changed watermark to more of a true gingerbread green
-Also changed checkmarks to a glowing gingerbread green
This as stated above is by far my best work. Please feel free to browse the pictures, leave feedback, spread the word, and more importantly enjoy!
Dont forget to hit the Thanks button if you like my work!
V2
-changed pandora logo to dark grey
-changed all highlighted when touch icons to green
-greyed out the thumbs up and down checked
Also will be starting to tackle other widgets in the very near future, please feel free to throw me some suggestions.
*Edit* Work has been consuming much of my time lately, Facebook and twitter widgets have been put on hold. When time permits I will once again be actively tweaking. Bare with me people...

Thanx... looks nice

couldn't install w/astro, can i only install adb?

Im not the most fimilar with adb. I know there threads that will tell you the exact phrasing to push it to systems app. Astro wont do it. The easiest way for me was root explorer. The exact steps for using RE is in my first posting. If you follow those steps you should have no problem. Let me know how things work out for you.

May I suggest revising the widget to look more like the Bionix-v widgets, as in no rim around the edges?
Ever considered doing the same for FaceBook or Twitter?

Thanks alot. Hopefully more people will download this and enjoy it like you. Honestly it took me quite a few hours to tweak everything just right. Orginally I was just gonna take the border off like you had ask, but after about 10mins of playing with it it ended up turning into a hole big project...lol. Anyways I have some really good ideas for the facebook and twitter widgets. I started exploring the files tonight so once I figure out where each file goes and what folder effects what image I will begin altering. Again thanks and and keep checking back Ill update time frames for releases in the OP as they get closer...

What are you looking for blue? Just the icons and markings or the background too? Also what type of blue? A sample would be great, just post me a link to something themed blue that you use. Get that info to me and i'll see what I can come up with

The blue I'm talking about is the blue in the Darkhorse theme blue. Here's a sample.
Would like the blue logo and blue background. If that's cool

Ok... Im gonna be playing with the facebook widget for the next few days. So this weekend is when ill get to your blue request. Check in on this page on Sunday. I should have something nice for you...

Xoom Inspired theme--[WIP] UPDATED 3-23-11

Ok here she is after having to start over 2 times...damn DEV are working hard and can't finish before a new rom lol.JK keep up the awesome work guys.I am still learning the theming business so any help would be awesome i'm learning Photoshop on the fly here.Also i wished to change the text to white for visibility issues but like i said still learning. I'm looking for suggestions on changes and any help anyone would like to give me.Ok the thanking part the deskclock meter on top came from a Droid X rom Liberty 1.5 HC <awesome work guys>.
edit - First release (very rough as seen in screenshots also no clock)
edit - Second version is up, and good news i have a Partner GTO777 has taken the time to get things rolling with White text and custom wifi drop downs and a NEW drop down battery (very nice).He's hard at work thinking of new things to do including a possible reboot option.This is still in the works so keep an eye out it's just getting better.
Edit- Had a chance to work on this alot today and it shows in big ways. V3 will be up as soon as me and GTO777 and get back together and put all the adds together.

Nice, this will give us something to do till we get the real deal: -)

Only thing I'm not fond of is the circle battery, I've never liked the look of them compared to a standard style battery meter.
I know I'm in the minority here, but maybe 2 versions with different battery meters?
Looks good so far though.

Awesome z Thanks... Vegantab has been getting all the theming love... Happy the TNT ers can now get in on things!

Looking really good. May have to try it with adw to get the same number of rows and columns as the xoom.

Also I here their are vegan roms with themes please link some favorites mabey we can blend it in.

Thanks, yes and alot needs to be done but if we can get help we can compile a nice theme....also would like a more transparent web bar and different buttons so lets get those ideas going.
Edit-Ok guys it's been hell around here and haven't had alot of time between this and the boot animations.I've been tring to add some more or the Xoom look to the theme, starting with the Circle battery it's been replaced with the one from Xoom and the Larger wifi icon is being made now to match the theme (green out blue in ) also need to change the home buttons+back+menu button.i'll be tring to get this up tonight.This release will have the clock in it so look for it.

Looks really good, I am working on something similar. Makes me happy for more themes . The TNT framework has a lot more then most frameworks, maybe work together? PM me.
I have this so far:
No pics sorry, but it has some white text on the drop-downs working on getting the rest. Toasts, pop-ups, and drop-downs have honey border, and.... I think the battery and wifi drop-down match the transparent blue stuff, the battery was annoying.
I need to do the home screen icons, add more white text in the drop-down, and I wanted to reorder the buttons in the bar, also make the drop-down shadows less transparent....

popups
10char

Thanks to both of you... I'll be pulling this when I get I the office this morning to play. Looking forward to it!
(edit) just read the fine print... Question, will it work on the non-meat eaters? (vegaN)
...sent from my ' un-stock' vibrant

thanks if you like it so far You like it even more when we are done with it. As far as the Vegan goes no there is alot different in the Framework that tnt uses sorry.

How about cyanogen? Can I use it on7?

Ok just so i don't have to keep replying this is for TNT roms, It was made for the TTX rom but will most likly work on the TNTL and roms like it. It is too diferent from Vegan and CM7 sorry.

Hey kicker, pm sent ur way

Anymore updates on this project? Everything is looking great. I'm running the latest TnT Lite and will be testing this out shortly.

+1 I am def looking forward to this!

Looks sweet. Thanks.

well guys sorry for the delay was moving to a new house and had no net.
Anyways it seems as tho my partner is MIA lol.and i liked the theme very much but i need white text and like i said i'm learning this so as of right now i think i'm done unless i can find help. Thanks to those of you who tried it out and responded. I'm not out of the game yet just think i'm going to move on to something just not sure what yet.
