Collecting bits and pieces for my new Optimus Black - LG Optimus Black

I just ordered a new LG Optimus Black since my HTC Desire seems to sabotaging me, lol. I've come around a few images for inspiration, and i want to know how to get them. Haven't yet decided if i want want to tweak the original rom, or go for CM7, what launcher and so on.
1. First pic, fond this among the screenshots for Beautiful Widgets, but what i am looking for here is the launcher, bottom icons and their frame. I might want to use other shortcuts, but i suppose it's easy to make a custom icon for that:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. In this pic, i'm looking for the neat notification bar without childish colors and with the elegant font used here. BTW, do NOT want the orange default color, hated it when i tried MIUI on my desire. They should be green or blue...
3. Can't seem to find the image atm, but i want some sort of notifications on the lockscreen about missed calls, new sms, new email and new gmail. not icons, maybe just text, and a red circle with a number representing amount of notifications. As far as i understand i can customize a lot of it with minimalistic text, but i probably need something else. I also want to display time, date etc, but not a lot of icons and shortcuts. And a nice discrete unlock bar of some kind.
4. Calendar widget. I like the default one in Sense, but i also like the look of (cal widget?), just plain text on transparent background, no clumsy frame around it. That might also be neat to have on my lockscreen, unless it becomes to much...
I have already purchased SwitchPro Widget and WidgetLocker Lockscreen, dunno if i can use them for anything. Is Better Cut a app i would need? I know this might be a lot, but i have a vision of how i want it to look, and i would really appreciate all feedback which could help me along the way

First pic, it's GO Launcher.

Yeah, first pic is definitely GO launcher EX, and second pic is obviously MIUI launcher.
Well, you can try both.
Now for the lock screen things, you can use widgetlocker, lockbot etc., and /g/o locker that comes with GO launcher. Just try out all of them and see what meets your needs !
Another thing, if you flash cyanogenmod, you will have a lot more options like in notification bar you can put as many buttons as you want; plus, using Theme Chooser application, you can try many amazing themes ! This device's hardware is quite capable of using every customization without any lag, and blazing NOVA IPS will give you the utmost realistic effect of your theme for sure.
Okay, can't say more. Check the homescreen pic thread in heme Section and see the other user's modding..

Thanks for reply I've been looking trough a lot of homescreens for inspiration and themes, but I want to put together my own "theme" with a sleek proffesional look. Not sin Harry Potter or Star Wars look I guess I have to play around with it...
But is it doable to grab the MIUI notification bar and use it in another launcher?

Nope. It's not possible with any launcher on any device unless you are theme dev yourself..

edit your framework-res.apk
that should do the trick
(but i'm not responsible if you brickin' your phone )

and thats a fact, you can brick it... I've already tried to edit framework-res.apk from cm7 to add the icons huexxx made but I was unsuccesfull, although the icons can be used with stock rom and nova rom [both are froyo] but can't with cm7 [GB] maybe thats the trick

Just picked up my handset from the post office, and the first thing i want to do is to make a complete backup of it, then it's time to "**** it up", lol
Ok, edit the framework, might look into that. But let's try to attack this from another angle. I don't need the whole dropdown notification bar settings, just it's appearance as it is there on top of my homescreen. Do i need to edit the framework to change the color/image, font and icons in it? I hoped it was just some xml and imagefiles to edit. Or is there a selection of styles for this part in other CM7 themes? My biggest issue with MIUI is the orange color they put everywhere, and on my Desire MIUI was way slower than the stock 2.3 rom.
EDIT: Or another turn of events, i could install the MIUI ROM/Launcher, but somehow replace the ugly orange colors. I suppose i could replace the icons in the bottom launchbar...

I've gotten so much further now But there are still some things that i want to change. Like in this picture, what widget is displaying weather info?
I've downloaded Beautiful Widgets, and i am so not happy with it, so i'm thinking of making something on my own with Minimalistic Text and a weather widget, just need a simple but nice widget with transparent background. I also need a lot of time to figure out Minimalistic Text, it has great potential, but is a pain in the butt to set up, lol.

haha you're right MT is such a pain to set up... I'm sure I saw that weather widget before, where you get the image?? maybe at the thread of "post your home screen" or something like that?

Ok, this is where i'm at so far:
I'm pretty pleased with my lockscreen atm, might fiddle more with it later, but as you can see, the homescreen needs more work, lol. The weather widget is Beautiful widgets, one of the few that are actually 100% transparent. I think i might change it for a combination of Minimalistic Text, and hopefully i can find a widget showing just a moon/sun/cloud, and get its data from the same source as MT, so they will match... These are the apps i'm using atm:
- GO Launcher EX
- GO Launcher EX Notification
- WidgetLocker Lockscreen
- Super Status Bar
- Minimalistic Text
- Missed It!
Also, what does the icon in the upper left corner mean? looks like <D].

[THEME - BETA]AluceLS-v01 now ALUCE

Well I present to you my second theme but kinda like my big first that I have been working on for a while now. I started once the 2.0 Icons became available cause I like the look and it made the phone seem more professional so I based a theme off that idea something that would be professional looking and still retain a style to itself

: Disclaimer :
I would suggest doing a backup as this is still very premature and I want to keep a big focus on the style aspect so I am forever working on one app at a time. I know I should say all that I am not responsible stuff but I am sure that the people downloading these themes and testing know the risk so now with heads clear

I am new to the cyanogen area, as I have been using Hero roms for the last 4 months or so. I really like the way you have put this together. Simple, yet attractive. I like the idea of advanced launcher, and a clear drawer button. I could go without the lockscreen. Thanks, keep up the good work

CDMA version is here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587147
Downloading... Very nice, thank you
Looks great, well done my friend and keep them coming!
Wow, very great. I like this Theme.
I try it and it's very great.
Is it possible to do this in white?
Very nice!
Love!
Good also for 2.8?
The problem with making a white theme is that the fonts are in white too so they won't show up. I'm not sure yet how to change the font colour.
This only works on 2.9. I started working on it when 2.8 was out, but had to restart for 2.9. I threw away the 2.8 version, sorry!
Might be good for 2.8, I will try.
Uh, the Fonts. Okay.
And the Navbars on Bottom and Top only? Does that work?
I think for white Hero every widgets etc in Black, but this Both bars in White...?
Any way you can get this to work with MoDaCo's 1.1 rom for the Sprint Hero? Thanks.
Formel what do you mean by navbars? Like the status bar at the top and the phone button at the bottom? There's still the fonts problem, I'm not sure how to get around it.. Maybe someone can enlighten me?
Formel please can you post this theme on your German forum?
I can make a CDMA version soon, just need some free time and I'll make it.
Yes, I mean the status Bar on Top and the three Buttons on bottom.
I've found yesterday in market a Theme for GDE Home replacement in White.
I think I've seen here a theme with white status bar.
Suddenly, i've forgotten to make a new thread at Handy-FAQ.de. Thank you for reminding.
Now, I did:
http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/htc_hero_forum/107245-theme_htc_hero_smokin_green_v1.html
Cool thanks for posting it up dude! I'll try and look into the white theme a little more as I'd like it too
would you be so kind to share some of your knowledge?
i would like to have the transparent background for the notification pulldown, aswell as the bottom bar with the "mold" in it, but i would like to have it with the stock colors. if you could tip me off witch apk i should look in, and maybe even what files to replace that would be super awesome! pretty please...
Sure - The background for the notification pulldown is called status_bar_background.png and can be found in \res\drawable-480x320\ in framework-res.apk
The bottom bar mold, do u mean the 2-tone effect? Doesn't the stock rom already have that effect in stock colours though? The bottom bar stuff is in \res\drawable-port-480x320\ in Rosie.apk anyway.
Give me a shout if you need anything else!

Pookie1, look at this link: http://www.androidpit.de/android/de/de/tests/test/391207/GDE-The-new-home-experience
This is the Home replacement GDE. Therefor, somebody did a white Theme.
But I think, it can't be translate to HTC sense....
That looks nice, too.

Yeah looks very nice! But as it's in GDE it might be easier to change the fonts for that. I will start looking into changing the fonts, I'm pretty sure it's possible in Sense.
Thanks for posting it on your forum! If you have any exclusive themes over there, please bring them over to XDA for everyone here too
Of course, I did!

thanks for that quick answer! i will dig into that tonight, no time to do it at work...
what i meant with the bottombar see attachment. as long as i know where to look i think i can find it.
just for my curiosity/clarification: all you do to create a theme is extracting the apk, alter the image files in it, compress & resign and install? or is there more to it, like altering xml files (which i can not open as they are compiled?) just that i'm on the right track here...
Haha ok I get you know, I thought you were talking about mould Yes you can definitely turn that bar back to grey. I can do it for you if you get stuck. Now I know that's the bit you mean, I think that's in the same folder as the background transparency, \res\drawable-480x320\ in framework-res.apk. I'm not at my dev computer right now so I can't be totally sure, but if you can't find it let me know and I'll have another look.
Yes you're on the right track, that should work fine. It can get a bit confusing but if you keep all your files organised you should be fine.
I didn't alter any xml files to make my theme, so just leave those alone and replace the .png files.

Theme Concept- [UNNAMED] Feedback requested! UPDATE 1

Hello. I'm currently designing another theme. Still no name for it yet.
I wanted to post some screenshots for some feedback and opinions.
I'm liking the theme so far, but I'm not really sure if I will release it.
I guess I'll have to see what people think first.
Update: I posted some minor changes to the launcher bar and notification highlights(two of the most discussed issues). I'm not really to fond of the changes, but I do believe that they are better than the originals.
I also tried a quick dark notification bar, but don't really care for it...
(One reason I don't want to change the notification highlight color to a darker one or a black one is all the editing that goes into fixing the text color for everything. I still haven't figured out to fix some of those issues, making the text white)

I, however, have released two themes already, so... if if you follow my track record, you could easily be wrong.
has a metallic iphone feel to it. if u want to proceed, get rid of that launcher tray- its ugly. alot of people like transparency for the launcher or some nice simple rectangle that matches ur statusbar (grey) and goes all the way across. also, make the the notification EVENT tabs solid black or some sort of grey gloss that resemble the gloss of the black header. if you need ideas or help with finding things to improve the look let me know. good job though on the concept.
Actually, really good just the way it is.. i'd flash it right away, i like the drawer.
Notifications need to have a brighter colour imo though..
Good job mate
Ugly (and WAY too big) app drawer. Widgets are GORGEOUS though.
Overall, it looks really slick, and if you release it for SuperD I'll try it out.
I would suggest changing the backgrounds on the notification items. That, and maybe make the launcher bar like a black version of Cyanogen's.
I like notification icons very very nice keep good work
I don't like the notification bar at the top. It doesn't flow with the app drawer,
But I DO LOVE the widget concept, and the app drawer concept. Nicely done.

rofl. its not a rom its a theme. and you just like to pull numbers out of your ass?

hahaha I like this post! Gotta love those fail flamers!
the status bar icons and the colors look really good and i look forward to any future development
I also like the gray colors, since most themes stick to black or white. Change is nice. The widgets are great. I agree that the notification tray colors don't work. Maybe make em more like the widgets to give it a more consistent feel. The minty highlight color should be more defined too, since as is it blends in with the grays. I would make the app-tray shadow gradients vertically symmetrical. Also, since most themers go with the glossy notification bar by having the highlight/shadow median right in the middle, I wonder if it would work thinning them out to look more like in the notification tray.
No idea on a good name yet... sorry.
I like it so far. I really liked the last theme you put out. I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
dude this is sick ... only change should be in the app drawer, everything else is perfect
i love everything except the white and blue notifications...
they dont match the theme imo...
maybe a darker status bar? grey really doesnt flow with the rest of the dark launcher and icons
the power control widget should have all icons showing i think
and the launcher tray it kinda fat but if u slimmed it out and widened it it would be nice
great work so far cant wait for the release
Hmm... So it looks like I'll mainly be changing the launcher bar to match the rest of the theme a little better (matching the notification bar i guess) and changing the notification area stuff (the highlights).
this theme alright. The widget concept is just freaking amazing. The rest does need some work since the colors are very dull and not very attractive. Try to shine it up a little more maybe match your theme up with the widgets.
I like it. The widgets are sweet. I would like to use them, maybe witha coloured frame for my theme
I like the tray launcher much. The only thing I don't like much are the icons in the status bar. I would make them in coloured or maybe white. And I would try with different colour for notifications background
But nice. Keep working on it.
Did you make the widgets work or they are just mockup?
and now, that I keep watching the theme, I think: why don't you make the rest of the theme fits with the concept. Maybe it means flat black/dark grey statusbar, tray launcher with same style of widgets. Then, the rest of images for the theme in diffeent kinds of grey.And maybe (this would be a little risky), I would use this colour #bfff26 for pressing effect images. This would be really great for me.

[ADW.Themes] Stock Slide Themes *Update - 8/19/2010*

Because apparently the general population can't use common sense, this is a video on how to apply: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-i4L0i7zk48
A .zip is linked at the bottom which holds all of the themes. Each theme has two separate versions, one using the Sense application icons, the other using the slide application icons.
The themes are of the stock Slide themes (Nest, Hoops, LightShow, Wildflower, Surf, Nature, and Palazzo) made from images by HTC (I only made them compatible with ADW).

LightShow:

Palazzo:

Issues:
2. For some reason I could not get the vertical scrolling screen to display the app background correctly so you will have to use the Galaxy S drawer unless you don't mind the select/press/normal images not lining up. *Problem with the Stock Launcher Code (Which ADW uses)*
3. Landscape is ugly, sorry, it just is.
4. When adding an app to the hidden dock, the right side of the highlighted dock does NOT reach the edges of the screen, I'll look into this.
5. Scrolling is low quality, it's just an Android thing.
6. The nature theme looks a little odd on the app bar.. thing. It has vertical lines and unfortunately, the way I understand .9's, they like to stretch. It was either have one really long line or lots of lines slightly larger than the original image. I chose the latter.

Good job broseph.
Wow... Good work J!!
You're such an effing swagger jacker.
Very nice looking! The only suggestion I have is to do something with the shortcut names in the app drawer...only the shortest names are fully visible, otherwise they're cut off (because of the border). Maybe there is no way to beautify that, so no biggie. Otherwise, beautiful!
looks great
thanks
looks awesome. thank you
Very cool! I installed it on my phone. Thanks. But I don't have clock widget with weather. How I can get it?

"Weather & Toggle Widget" has a skin that looks exactly like it also, you can download it and the skins (one for clock, one for weather) from the market, it does cost $1.99 though I believe. Totally worth it imo.

Ooohp, yep. I bought that a long time ago as well (Before it was Weather & Toggle Widget).
Also, the Nest theme s currently on the market, to find it you can search for either "ADWTheme Slide" or "pub:klinster". It is one version ahead of all of these themes (and as such has a couple of things fixed, including HDPI support and general fixes with the bubble).
Starting later today I will begin updating the other themes, and ready them for (hopefully) a market release was well.
not fancy widget
So i went ahead and uploaded a widget thats called not fancy widget it's not fancy widget ..............I swear it's not guys ......don't look at me like that. Also I can't for the life of me get the boxes in the drawer to look correct

If using the themes posted in this thread it's known, I hope to have fixed that in the market version. Would you mind trying that and then tell me if the boxes are working correctly?
Also, I'm not sure if Fancy Widget is considered warez or not...

If using the themes posted in this thread it's known, I hope to have fixed that in the market version. Would you mind trying that and then tell me if the boxes are working correctly?

I been using the one from the market everything is cool but the drawer boxes. i'll try the ones from the first page.
Palazzo worked real well using the slide version. It gave me a force close but i hit wait also want to note my settings which were already setup from using crazybirds theme (nest)
Drawer settings:
horizontal drawer yes
drawer columns to drawer row are all set to four
page horizontal margin is at 10
ui settings:
desktop dots unchecked
secondary action buttons checked
ab scale factor 10
everything else is set to default except background color in drawer
Okay I just checked the ones on the front page and the ones that say slide all work (i didn't test the others) but when I go back to the nest from the market it messes up the drawer boxes. Loving it thanks for your work can't wait till lyrical ink shows up

Are you talking about the pink theme? If so just install the Lightshow theme from the zip.

It's a widget that was removed from the market.
It rhymes with Dancy Fidget and can be found on the interwebs somewhere

HTC Sense home UI for LP

This is a simple Sense UI homescreen look/theme for launcher pro (NOT a port of sense or any widgets)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
how to use :
1. set sensedock.png as your launcherpro dock
2. set your leftmost icon to go to the app drawer, then select custom icon and use the clearsquare.png as the icon
3. same as step two, but set the middle three icons to be the phone app. again, set the icon to be the clear square
4.set the rightmost icon to be whatever you want, i used messaging. again, use the clear icon
thats it! just tap one of the three sections and it will take you there
now your homescreen dock will look just about the same as senseUI.

You should use the app Shootme to post screen shots instead of taking pictures with your camera..
Great Skin, looks awesome
Stupid Android newb question (I'm sorry) but how do you apply themes? I came from the iphone jailbreaking scene so i'm still new to my Captivate

yes i should, and will
@linuxnewb install launcher pro (Free in app market) then go into preferences>apperance settings>dock background> pick custom and select the dock
then hold down each icon on the dock and set it individually
@clown_lov: yes, you just need to go into launcherpro settings and enable it
love it

ok, I have installed via metamorph and have launcher +beta as my launcher...I must be tired, so where do I go to do as your 4 steps tell me to?
ok, yup I am tired...any more questions will wait when I am fully awake - later on today...lol
Works great!!! Thanks - I needed launcher pro, as you said, and at first all I found was the other one...it would be nice to port the HTC SENSE UI in its entirety to the phone. But, until that day happens, this is a great alternative and the UI is still quick, too, on the captivate. Now, could you point me in the general direction of where I could change the sound and image files of this awesome phone? Thank!!

its not likely that an entire sense ui port will ever happen, basically because senseui is for and by HTC phones, which bare a total of almost no hardware similarities with the sgs. (check this out though http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737526)
you can look to the android general theme section for some bootscreens and sounds.
Do I have to root my captivate to do this?
All you need is Launcher Pro. Hit up the preferences menu after pressing the menu key on the homescreen and go to Appearance settings to change the dock skin.

I wish there was a way you could use the right button to add the widgets or wallpapers screen you know. There a way to do it?

the first two ways that come to mind are like a shortcut or something and an app that just opens that menu
personally i dont find that to be a really useful button so i assigned it to messaging
What's the all the ado about Sense?
So in a nutshell, is the appeal of SenseUI:
Customized dock
Useful widgets
Expose-like homescreen management
Am I missing something or does all that seem do-able in LauncherPro + (minus some of the widgets of course)?
