Hey fellas, I am a graphic designer and owner of a g1 since day one. I love the device and most of it. But I think they've done a horrible job with the UI design on the Music Player. It just sucks, and I've tried the others on the market, but they are just so TACKY!
I have been wanting to redesign the UI for a while but I'm not a programmer, neither do I have time to learn it. As a graphic designer, what I can do is design the UI.
I would like for someone to help me either create a new skin for the android music player, or create a music player from scratch.
Here is a link to something I've come up with, very clean and modern. http://www.snapdrive.net/files/145643/herow-newmedia.jpg
If there are any talented programmers interested please hit me up.
Here is the design in black. (thanks for the idea, Iridox!). http://www.snapdrive.net/files/145643/htc-hero-72.jpg
UPDATED UI
I'M ABOUT TO SWITCH TO THE IPHONE, LETS GET SOME TALENTED PROGRAMMERS INTERESTED.
That looks neat. Maybe do another mockup with black background & white text and make the scroll bar green instead to match the Hero colors
Really nice concept, I like your style.
I think, for the moment, it's easier to make a skin for androiod music player, but icons must fit in the position, color of the font and blabla bla....if you want I can send you the original images, then you can redisign and I can change them back inside of the player. (until somebody here offer you to create a complete new player).

Hey thanks for the compliments Joshua, I appreciate your offer and would consider it if no one really offers a complete revamp of the player. I just posted and I got another offer, so lets see what kind of offers and what we can do together. at the end of the day I want to do this for all of us.
Keep checking up on this thread and lets see what we can accomplish.

Thanks Cache, i'll PM you.
This would need some xml edits to the stock Android music player.. look into the source. =)
yeah thats what i was thinking, doing some work on some custom animations anyways, so figure that i will look into this at the same time.
If you do so will you add a back button to the music player. Like the widget. It sucks because I love having themed stuff but I'm forced to use tunewiki seeing as how it has a back button on the widget. I'm all for a change to the player as well. G'luck mate!
not sure im stilled enough as a coder to add buttons, layout xmls are one things, but new buttons are a completely different story.
ill look at the code when im changing thens tho, and let you know what goes down.
looks amazing. I love the white UI! It will look amazing on a black phone
Yeah.... the topic title is incredibly misleading.
That said, if you guys could redesign the music player, that would be amazing. I don't like the market alternatives, so a redesigned player would be up my alley.
Good luck!
I'm willing to give this a shot.. I already downloaded the source.
i too am getting there i think, have edited the source, and its looking kool.
probibly not have much to show till after xmas tho, as other commitments etc, (pesky family)
If the original poster could post (or PM) the modified resources that would be great, otherwise I'll have to copy/paste/re-format them from the attached mockups

PS. I'm going for a Donut version.

As I mentioned before, this post is to get programmers onboard with the project so that we can work together. If any programmers are interested in making this happen just send direct message. The design is not finalized, but once I get solid details of what can and cannot be done and I can rework or tweak, then procced to design the other sections of the music player as it is a complete redesign and not just the main menu. So if you are interested in making it happen just send me a direct message. Thank you all for your interest.
Check your PM! I'm heading home now.
I definitely love the black mockup man, awesome concept.
If this came to Android, it would go a long way toward beautifying the OS.

Hey i could actually design this for you but im no programmer either, im a flash cs4 developer and im actually working on a whole new android UI but this looks hella sexy for a music player, maybe we could work on something......
Hi.
I'm modeling 3d Android for one website, so I'll like to share with you my current progress; this is not finished model: I have to change hands (I don't like them as they are now), make legs, and add some more details. I have just posed what I have till now in to some quick pose and make quick render, to better see how it looks, and what to change.
I the end, this will be animated character and it will be used for banners, logo, icons, animated intro for videos, and some wallpapers and maybe even for theme for mobile phones.

I'm modeling this in 3d studio max.
And here is one more small update; I have remodeled hands, so that now I have more wide range of movement with them.
Awesome work, the first face looks better in my opinion, but the second is more original.
I also prefer the darker face. There is more contrast and makes the eyes stand out more. Also looks happier. Good details there. It is very difficult to make "green skin" look good at best of times!
Tnx guys for comments.
Face is still something I haven't decide yet what to do about it; I'll have to make some tests with expressions to see what will work best.
Now, I have to make legs; i'm thinking about making them somewhat similar to hands, but I'll put wheels on them (they will be mostly hidden; there will be a gap like for hands, where wheel will come out), so that he will basically role around; i thing that he will look cooler that way.

What is the limit on the trial like?
The height is limited. It's around 20.000 depending on the level-generator.
Sry 4 doublepost, but it would be nice to get some feedback Even for the trialversion.
Just to see if it's worth to continue developing new features.

Update 1.2 is submitted. New theme comes in 1.3 which is 90% done. Had an harddrive error, sorry for the delay.
Video of 1.3a in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQHEfnbLYgc
Update 1.2 is approved. I'm now workin hard to get 1.3 finished, just need to fix a few small bugs and polish graphics.
Would be great to get some feedback

For implementation: improve app icon (Background.png), it should be 173x173, now too blurry.
As for gameplay, all WP7 "bouncing" games are losing the original "Doodle jump" by features, graphics and physics.
May recommend you to add moving (horizontally and vertically) monsters and auto-aim feature for hero.

App icon is 173x173, i'm confused why it's still blurry.
And I don't want to copy DJ 1:1 so I'm satisfied with the gameplay ( and cuz I have so little spare time as a student )
Vertical monsters are implemented since v1.1 but are appering only in higher regions > 20000.
Auto-aim would be a nice feature, but then it would be too easy sometimes. Maybe a mix of manual and auto-aim?!
Anyway, thx for feedback.
Finally v1.3 is approved New version supports themes with more than a grapic-only change. Try it

The app will always be available for free from XDA, it is our gift to the community.
A beta is currently being tested by everyone in the office, and the app itself will be posted here in the next few hours, after we put some basic icons together and make sure it actually works
Stay tuned, all your screen capture needs will be met within a few hours!

That sounds exciting! The other workaround is pretty tedious
Im glad this is peaking at least someone's interest. The app is almost ready - another 20 minutes and ill post it in the header!
OK I installed it, how do i take a screenshot now??
It works!
Downloaded to Dropbox, installed, enabled, and shaken
I got wonderful screenshots - Hooray!
I would like to add a few suggestions:
Maybe add a widget that lists the screenshots and takes you to the folder when clickin on it
Is it possible to add an icon to the notification bar that can be used to take a screenshot upon tapping (similar to Task killer)? Shaking is working fine but I never know if it works since the notification takes a few seconds to appear.
Sometimes the screenshot contains the notification that the app has been granted superuser rights. Maybe a timing issue?
Thanks for the great app though! looking forward to more options!
Youre quite right, its pretty barebones right now. Written in just 2 days, using a totally new method (as far as i know at least). By the way, it should work on all rooted devices, 1.6+.
We have another project to push out on friday, but ill definitely look into adding more better stuff over the weekend, thanks for the suggestions!
And im aware of the delay, the code needs to be cleaned up a little. Ill look into that as well.
Nice! Thank you! This is great!
lol. And just to think that some people in the dev forum were accusing you of not being a developer, and those same people will probably be using your app a lot.
[edit]
One thing that should be changed. Under the 'Enable' tab, it says "Screenshot ER does not active" it should say "Screenshot ER is not active".
Trolls will be trolls. Ill clean up the strings a little too.

I disagree. I like "does not active" better. It may not be grammatically correct, but it makes me smile when I read it.

I am impressed with the outcome of a 2-day project! Keep smoothing out the rough spots and add some more functionality and I'm sure it'll sell! Nastrovje! (only Russian word I know muahaha)
This project will be free forever! Its my contribution to the community

I've downloaded it but haven't installs just yet but, this sounds like it could be remedied by simply changing the notification settings in Superuser. Thats how I handle it when using Drocap 2.
Edit: Ok, so I've installed and used it for a couple of screeners. Works flawlessly on my CM7 DInc. Even with ER's toast notifications enabled, I had no problem with them being captured in the shot. Thanks so much dev. On a side note, plus one on the notification trigger option. If possible in a future release, it would be a great addition.

Please, post a logcat so that we can look into the issues your having on your elocity slate.
This is where the real download is. That should teach you noobs to read te thread.
Great work. I wish there was a way to do screen captures with out needing root or the SDK tools. The Galaxy can do it so it lol.

Sticks and stones man, water under the bridge
Im planning a nice update with new features in the next few hours, though it might turn into two smaller ones. Watch this space!
YAY!!!!... Would love an icon in the notification bar .. I hate navigating out and back .. It's not the end all but... Anyhow congrats and thanks .. I'm going to buy from market now
I use ScreenShotIt on my DX and their notification icon works great and doesn't use any battery
Hey guys! I recently competed in Round II of the "Last Call for Google IO" challenge for Android which had us develop an Android version of the HTML5 countdown clock that is on the Google IO Homepage:
http://www.google.com/events/io/2011/
I threw it on my G-Tab when I was done developing it and I liked it so much I thought I'd create a live wallpaper from it, but change it from a countdown to Google IO to just displaying the system clock.
Trying to get a feel for how many people would actually use it. I've attached the standalone app I created so you can try it out.
Please let me know what you think!! Thanks,
-teleK
It's interesting, but would like to see more options on it.

It would be an awesome lock screen wall paper..
Different colored balls maybe, amount of balls, maybe you can even add in different types of balls for a paid version? Like for sports fans- they can choose a baseball or basketball etc...If thats even possible LOL
Pretty cool. Some options I'd like to see:
1. Ability to change balls (color, size, shape)
2. Ability to change physics (gravity control, bounce speed)
3. Ability to interact with bouncing balls (move finger and cause them to change as if I actually bumped them)
4. Location on screen for date/time
5. If possible, have the balls interact with the icons/widgets on the screen - bounce between around as if they were real objects
Sorry for the Delay
Sadly I was not one of the 10 Android winners for the contest. However, I have finished turning my submission into a Live Wallpaper with the system clock and stuck it on the market.
I'm very happy with it so far but this is only the beginning. I plan to add accelerometer support, and a couple settings options as one of the other posters requested.
And who knows, if it sells well enough maybe I can afford to buy an I/O ticket from someone on eBay. So.... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?? Go buy my app and try it out!!!
