[APP] "NASA App" semi-optimized for Honeycomb - Xoom Themes and Apps

I was playing around a little bit today with the official NASA application, after being annoyed by its slowness. I modified it a bit to use the 2D hardware acceleration, and enabled a little bit of the "Holo" default Honeycomb theme, kinda. Not sure why all devs don't put that one little tiny line of code in their apps, but man is it a ton smoother. APOD pics are far more fun to look through with it.
Anyway, grab it if you want. It's not perfect, but it was a fun little thing to mess with. (attached)

Great! A must have... Thanks a lot!

Neat! Thanks.

Neat! Thanks.

this is great for viewing APOD pics, thanks!

Will try this out, thanks.

Would anyone be interested in...

Would anyone be interested in a Themed BlackPad variant that would look like the attached photo?
Like all my ROMs, it would have a clean setup, nothing useless. It would be optimized for both speed and memory and stability. It'd just be a variant of my CleanROM.
Yes, killed, the "glossy" look but I like it that way. It would have HTC Album replacing the standard picture app, and a few other things... I'm just brain storming. I might release it along with my Kitchen whenever I find all the bugs with my current CleanROM beta. But for that to happen, I need people to HELP ME TEST IT!!! lol
Anyways, this ROM will be completely themed. It will have everything (or everything I can) looking black with as little white as possible. (Except for the white letters of course.) All backgrounds and all will be black.
There would be a Herald version and a Wing version.
I have a few apps in mind...
When PointUI becomes more stable and allows skinning, this will extend that way.
im interested, my home screen on all of my devices is black.
maybe you could include ui tweaker with the latest .sys
I think it is slammin. I will help test it for you. I have a tmobile wing. Right now I have open touch on it and I am looking everyday for bigger better things! I would love to put my 2 cents in it.
I will definatley help you test it if you would like and I think using HTC Album would be very awesome and not to mention all the black it will look flush oh and that point ui thing seems pretty promising but judging from the skreenshot it wouldn't be too missed because that home skreen looks [email protected]
I think thats a very good idea. The photo looks great, I really like the icons. I will help you test. I have been using pointui for the past couple of days and its actually pretty dang close to being ready to go. The creators are very active in making fixes for it and there are only a couple of issues that I have found. Have you found a way to skin it?
here is the today .tsk (just copie to \windows\)
and the icons for htc home.... (you need hhccustom to use)
and the icons for htc actionscreen. (just copie to \windows\)
have fun.
btw - it is not stolen from ivan - it is a today screen from me. he wanted to cook the rom....

Redesigned android music player, at last!

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.

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

source files
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.

3d droid

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.

Ubermusic Skin - One

The project is officialy DEAD due to the lack of interest. If you would like to continue the source is on github.
A few people asked for it so download is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7692676/android/One.apk
Based on work by Thiago Silva
Pretty slick looking. A little too iPhonish for my personal taste but it looks really sharp. Like the color scheme too. Excellent work.
Love that, please keep on it
HTC Desire Z - Tapatalk
Beautiful man. I used UberMusic and would defiantly love to use this theme.
cant wait id love to use that theme
Nice Nice Nice!
Can't wait for release!
Great theme!!!
WOWWWWWW!!! That is simply beautiful. If you need help testing it on an MDPI screen, I would be more than happy to do it. This blows out any theme I've seen for UberMusic.
I don't know hor far you're going with apktool, recompiling and this hacky stuff, but if you're good with this, you might find powerAmp a better app to start with.
Basically it has all or almost all features you need, so it would be a matter of rewireing the actuall app to the new ui you want to implement with a skin.
More complicated than making an ubermusic skin, but also more rewarding.
Thing is, nobody really likes reading bytecode, I guess.
Try with the UM skin first. I'll gladly try it. +1 for testing volounteers.
MDPI HTC Hero GSM, btw.
Ah, and btw, you might wanna try apk manager.
thats dope good work bro
Really nice brother i hope test it soon now
Nice! can't wait to see this... I've been using the metro skin for the whole time, and had (cubed) before that. It would be great to see a lighter skin
Very nice, will be watching for its completion.
Any release date for this??? im actually kind of tired of the skins they have for this in the market..not a wide variety of choice yet.
Man That's awesome!
Good Job..

I think it looks "iPhonish" because the tabs are on the bottom. If people want it I will make one with tabs-on-top.

I had a look at poweramp: it would be really hard to implement this interface. Playerpro has all the elements in it that are needed for this look (minus the letter separator but that's not a biggie). Anyway I finally figured out what was wrong with recompiling. I used apkmanager. That was the problem because it's bundled with a horribly out of date version of apktool, I updated it and now it works. Beta is coming soon so watch this thread

[Boot Animation] Digital Rain (Matrix) & Call of Android Redux (UPDATE 7/10)

UPDATE:
The download for the Digital Rain boot animation is now a link to the general non carrier specific HTC One themes section. It is more comprehensive and up to date with a few extras. Here is the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357926
Haven't had a lot of free time due to work and family, but I managed to rework the infamous Call of Android boot I made a few years back. It is tailored for the HTC one but I can upload an unbranded version for anyone interested in making their own device specific boot. I would say this is what the boot animation I created a few years ago should have looked like but I didn't have the software at the time.
I also present a Matrix style digital rain boot specifically made for the HTC ONE. This one was a little more time consuming and took the better part of 3 months to finish... Apparently it's extremely difficult to find a good quality Matrix font online, it's pretty much non existent. So I made the font from scratch and including it in the attachments for ****s and gigs. Keep in mind that the font is not complete and only has 96 characters. The uniformity is also not consistent between each glyph as I was making this for video/boot animation purposes and not daily use.
Here are a couple gif's to get you started and the attached files. There are mp3's attached as a zip for anyone interested in matching audio. I am not going over the instructions on how to flash/copy/overwrite the necessary files to install these animations as there are plenty of tutorials already explaining the process.
DISCLAIMER:
Any questions, ask. Anyone interested in using it for their rom/project/different device, that is perfectly ok, you have permission too. All I ask is that you give credit where credit is due and hopefully link back to this post for others.

Digital Rain Downloads (UPDATE):
Since this seems to be getting more attention in the unbranded HTC One forum, here is a link to the Matrix Digital Rain boot. I have it kept up to date and added a few extra things to it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357926
**NOTE**
If you have any problems downloading the zips from the links above, try a right click on the link and selecting "save as".
If your sound does not work after flash, most likely you will need to add a small snippet of code to an xml file. It's easy, just follow the directions below.
Adding audio:
On your phone use a file manager to browse to the folder: /system/customize/CID
Open the xml file contained in the directory with a text editor. Once opened, scroll down till you come across some text regarding bootanimations. The text will look something similar or exactly like ex:
​
Code:
animation="/system/customize/resource/NAMEOFBOOTANIMTION.zip" />
All you need to do is add a line of text and save, ex:
​
Code:
animation="/system/customize/resource/NAMEOFBOOTANIMATION.zip" [COLOR="Red"]audio="/system/customize/resource/NAMEOFAUDIOFILE.mp3 />[/COLOR]
As a bonus, the woman in red splash image and flashable zip.

I haven't used the knoll light factory yet... Will check it out, nice to see others who have experience with AE. :good:
I wanted the slight blur/low resolution look on the rain in the animation, I was trying to get it similar in feel to the Matrix intro and noticed it had a very similar grainy low-res look to it. I am still going to check out knoll and see what it's all about.

low res but oh well - 1:31 in youll see...
Yeah Redgiant makes some cool plugins if you want to remove the red X cough youtube... Yeah the only thing id say about that is: they did the matrix fly in at high res with 3d cubes to make up pixels it was either a well written expression or autodesk one of them you take your pick. Think it could be done with the holomatrix plugin now but I dont think that plugin was around then. Not exactly sure. But yeah thats why the pixels appear to have so much depth to them its how they created a 3d space to a 2d environment is with 3d pixel effect essentially.. They made the models move with expressions and null objects and then warped them in after effects. Its more of a warping of the cubes bending into code, thats what i remember at least. There are several variations lol what with 3 movies and all. The end flare when it warps into "pseudo reality" would be super easy replicated in klf as well as magic bullet looks has a matrix look i think youll like also...In KLF they also have resolution settings for you lights so no worries there and they may even have a preset of that flare Glad you shared man I like it...:good:

[email protected]#, balls man. After checking the plugin out the other night, got to say it would have made this a bit easier to do instead of a white solid overlay with a couple masks. Thanks man, glad to have more ways to simplify and make **** look clean when making these. Pretty interesting info about how they rendered the 3d effects for the intro, even if it was a pixel shift/warp effect, still good information to have for the future. I've been messing around with blender for 3d, little rough around the edges for an interface, but it works... for now. Any software suggestions or recommendations on the 3d end? I've been contemplating Cinema 4d or 3ds Max

Yeah man I hear that figured you'd like it: I've found that maxon has a much easier interface I've always thought that for some reason. Try some c4d: much simpler. And aftereffects CC has the new cineware engine in it (ie, renedering engine built into cinema4d) from maxon so yeah the two softwares will forever be interconnected from now on at least as far as adobe says. Which I love btw Currently I have autodesk 3dsmax installed as well as c4d and blender but I've never opened the other two except blender once to convert a model into .obj lol. Now I just got riptide so I can do it in c4d. Yeah I've found that most of the gurus use them as paired software. And crackanug also check out andrew kramers videocopilot element 3d it allows you to use trapcode form as a model overlay base essentially in after effects. Willing to help you attain that if you want hmu on gtalk [email protected]
And @ yeti glad you did to lol...I only try to persuade people who I think actually have promise, skill, ambition, Love to see the community grow with true talent.

And aftereffects CC has the new cineware engine in it (ie, renedering engine built into cinema4d) from maxon so yeah the two softwares will forever be interconnected from now on at least as far as adobe says. Which I love btw Currently I have autodesk 3dsmax installed as well as c4d and blender but I've never opened the other two except blender once to convert a model into .obj lol. Now I just got riptide so I can do it in c4d. Yeah I've found that most of the gurus use them as paired software. And crackanug also check out andrew kramers videocopilot element 3d it allows you to use trapcode form as a model overlay base essentially in after effects. Willing to help you attain that if you want hmu on gtalk [email protected]
And @ yeti glad you did to lol...I only try to persuade people who I think actually have promise, skill, ambition, Love to see the community grow with true talent.

As soon as I get some free time after this week (moving) I will check out c4d. Needing something other than blender, like you, all I used it for was converting things to an obj and maybe an extrusion for a simple 3d design from a vector drawing. I'm watching the videocopilot vids during some downtime at work, pretty impressive so far. I've watched some of the other tuts, but usually only when I am stuck or need help with some ideas. I'm def interested in learning from like minded individuals and getting new ideas, knowledge and tips. You see a message from letthemfear on gmail, it'll be me. Just a heads up, I work midnights so my schedule is usually a mess.
Now make me something pretty
