found what i was looking for thanks to some members, so i will soon be uploading some custom themes, and hoping to get some ideas and input from the forums.
big thanks to madbert for the inspiration to put my talents to good use.....
ok, here is the first few that i have done...just playing around..... hope you enjoy.
the indiaX file is for the mature, and the bobmarley is a tribute one i did for a friend of mine who is a big fan.
if you want personal ones done, send me an PM and i will give u my email addy.
please give feedback and ideas so i can make a wide variety
edit .... maybe i should have tested these before releasing them...didnt realize a huge and GAWDY demo would be place on top of them.
will try again later tonight and see what i can do.
alright.... finally, got the first one done, and hopefully i can churn some more out.... still getting the sizing right.... if anyone has any suggestions on proper sizing for the start menu and today screen, would be appreciated, as i want to give u guys the best.
hope u guys like my iron theme
for all of you halle berry fans, heres two storm themes from x-2/3

For some reason a tsk file can not change the BaseHue to 160 it always defaults back to 120, but only when you try 160. I made a cab for a workaround..

Great Job
Hey I really like the way these are coming out. Can you make some with some really hot women. Maybe that new girl from bionic woman, or lindsey lohan, or the girl from ghost whisperer.
thanks,
Just the thread I was looking for...
Hi Greyzter...
Just wondering if you do Auto themes. If so, I'll be particularly interested in a Nissan GTR or Koenigsegg CCX theme.
Don't need a separate pic for the start menu; compatibility in standard and landscape modes is all I need. Something black would be ideal with any lettering/words to be on the top instead of the bottom since I have a plug-in at the bottom of the today screen which often gets obscured. A good reference would be Badbert's Ford GT theme (Here) but with the word "GT" on the top instead of the bottom.
Topspeed has some nice pix and renders of the two cars.
Nissan GTR Gallery:

Koenigsegg CCX Gallery:
http://www.topspeed.com/cars/koenigsegg/koenigsegg-ccx-ar2369/pictures.html
getting on that ..... got a few other things im working on. as im learning ill share with the forums..... thanks for the idea.... found a couple shots i like.
Nissan GTR Theme
Got a little impatient and slapped together a theme with a little cutting and pasting. There were several pix that I liked but couldn't use cuz I don't know how to do gradients and other lighting affects. After a few hours, finally got something I was happy with so I thought I'd share.
See attached to see my cluttered Today screen and some cleaner screen caps.
EDIT: Oops... forgot the most important part... the tsk... Also threw in a 320x320 that just missed the cut.
well thats one off my list...lol....... thanks for the great theme file.
I want to create a theme, as no one here seems to have the same design sense as me; most are obsessed with trends from 2004 or something, and are fascinated by bright colors and the need for everything to be big and/or cluttered. as a minimalist, i'm basically exactly the opposite. i like clean, concise, small and unobtrusive.
Anyway, if a dalented dev and I could hook up, I could design a very nice looking exterior for Android so long as he could code it all into place. I'd be wanting to skin basically every skinnable object within Android; I want a full UI overhaul. I also want it to be the best looking thing released for the OS.
To give myself a little bit of credibility, here's a mock-up I was messing around with to provide an idea of what I'd be talking about.
http://img811.imageshack.us/slideshow/webplayer.php?id=homel.png
is no one replying because it doesn't look good enough, or because no one is interested?
The design is very bland, more work on it would make it look pretty nice. I see you're aiming for a simple look yet, somewhat elegant.
looks very nice and clean but...
notification bar is half the size,dont know if it is possible to edit the size of it.
and it wouldnt be easy to acess the drop down menu.
Same goes to lockscreen,a lot to change...
Perhaps this are the reasons no dev is interested in this,but it is a nice concept...hope you can manage to get it done.

You can change the status bar size from source: frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/dimens.xml and change the status bar dpi from 25 to "x"
that was just a mock-up. everything can/will be changed to meet the dimensions of the elements to the sizes needed for the phone. and yes, it'll looks a lot better after some more time is put into it. i posted just a barebones preview of what i hope to accomplish.
You came in here bashing many talented designers and then post that? Instead of 2004, you're going prior?
Good luck, and I hope your "new" idea (given that there are quite a few minimalist themes) turns out well.
how did i bash anyone? i mean sure my comment was a little snarky, but it wasn't meant to put anyone down.
i don't see how that's prior-2004 either way, though.
Instead of asking for "talented devs" to help you, it might work out better if you spend a little bit of time to get to know the roots of android theming, and hopefully get more going than a few minimalistic mockups. Read a few how-to guides to get things rolling and when you get to troublesome .9's and xml tweaks, that might be a better time to ask for help.
As much as all of us will be really excited to see what you come up with (I mean that seriously), I really think it would be better that you get some experience going on your own first. 'Employing' people to do the dirty work usually means the end result is nothing like what the concepts suggested (I think a lot of us remember a similar situation late last year).
Good luck, have fun. I'm looking forward to the results.

This is absolutely true, most of the themes would make my phone look like a cheap knockoff. However, I don't find yours the most appealing either. Minimalistic is good, very good, but add some more life to it (again, in a minimalistic and clean way)
It kinda reminds me of this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=662721&highlight=xperia

I do get where you're coming from and a lot of the themes posted aren't to my taste, but your design is weak. If you're going to make something so minimal that it's just a gradient fill and a font, the font needs to be something so special it can carry the whole design, and that really isn't... italics.. seriously..? It looks very dated. I think you've shown a lot of arrogance to come in here disrespecting the work put in by some very talented people, and then put forward your own amateurish design as an example of what they should be doing. You're not going to recruit anyone to help you that way.
Personally, I don't have the time or the motivation to work on full system themes without any kind of reward or pay. This is difficult, time consuming work, as you will soon find out if you make the effort to learn for yourself. I will however be leaning much more towards the minimal style in my future GDE themes, as it's my own personal preference.
Minimal is a very difficult look to pull off in an interface without looking bland, but there are some fine examples around here. Take a look at Elegance for a start. I respect that theme a lot.
Forget changing codes and such, just go to Sweeter Home and build it yourself. There are tons of themes there that look like your example.

Hey man, I just felt like I needed to give you some words of advice from an artistic standpoint.
I don't know your design capabilities, I don't claim this is your best, and I don't claim you are a world renown designer.
But every designer I do know deals with battling what other people say about their work.
We can choose to be offended, or we can choose to take it as a way of improving.
There are two words for this. One is greatly different from the other.
One is Criticism, and the other is constructive criticism.
Some of these posts I have seen are just pure criticism. (Perhaps this is why I see a whole page of posts gone but others I see here are constructively trying to criticize the work so that you may gain humility towards others works, and improve in your own.
This is a true barebone theme my friend, but I see potential in it. It doesn't matter what other's think, it matters what you think. If you ever need some help with this man, feel free to e-mail me. I am no dev, but I am a designer, and I would love to help you in the artistic aspects of this project, so that you can have something to be strongly proud of in the end of this. Let me know what's up. Shoot me a PM.
A loving word from one designer to another,

NOTE: I've noticed that people have began to repost this thread on other forums. While this normally does not bother me, this was not a sole work and many have contributed to this. So if you have reposted this, please give credit.
One of the greatest strength of Android is user customization. This is what makes our favorite OS unique. No two homescreen are alike. Widgets, wallpapers, and icons, almost everything you see can be replaced, themed and modified. However, the number of themes and widget are many that it becomes daunting and a little bit intimidating. So without further ado, this thread will help you maximize your ability to theme and create your very own take on the Android experience. Enjoy!
Ever wonder how to make your Android home screen look like this?

This thread is dedicated to show you how widgets can help create a look to your homescreen. Keep in mind that some might not be free and some have been modded (transparency, color changes etc.) to look different from the original.
ICONS
There are many icons lying around the internet. These are my favorite as they give the phone a minimalist look like so:
They are provided by Ultralinx and can found here http://ultralinx.blogspot.com/
Launcher
There are a number of launcher available but the two most popular are ADW launcher and launcher pro.
The launchers can change the features and outlook of your homsecreen like so:

thanks for this, i often search for new widgets but it would take years to find exactly what im looking for in the screenshot thread. i can see this helping many new and old users alike. especially ones like me who dont really participate in the forums and just kinda skim through every so often
one suggestion i have is that you categorize the widgets that you/others post in the first post.
example:
clocks
-digital clock by maize
-weather widgets(flip clock)
-LED clock
-tajim
weather
-weather widgets
-weatherbug
-accuweather
-the weatherchannel
etc..
Beautiful widgets seems to be a commonly asked after one, as does genie widget, and music player widgets.
thank you too!, i couldnt figure out what the name of genie widgets was, ive been trying to figure it out for some time! i just never want to ask cause i feel like im being bothersome
@fliparsenal
Thank you for the credit dude and you did the right thing for giving a link to my blog instead of just the thread.
Do you think you could post this screenshot up and say what everything is, they're my modded apps and EVERYONE keeps asking about them...
Just give a link to my blog.
Cheers buddy.
There are some widgets here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=753151
If I could make a suggestion, it might be a bit easier to do a screen capture of the widget itself using snagit or something similar and then providing a QR to the market link and a link to the mod if applicable.

No need to say sorry, everyone has a life outside of android...I think
BTW the first screenshot, I think you might want to remove it. It's a WidgetLocker Mod. I won't be able to share it because it's not a free app.
commonly used app though
how do you get the fonts in the first few pics? from what i've seen, the fonts don't look like that with the stock program.
You might want to switch out the gtasks code. It doesn't take you to the app, it takes you to a key that unlocks the app, but not the app itself
I feel absolutely disgusted towards you right now. The fact that I had to accidentally view that filth on that 4wall link because I trusted this forum enough, and maybe you as a poster enough that I didn't think to skim over a wallpaper link to expect a "little warning" next to it telling me I may be horrified at what I may see on the other side of it.
If I am the only person on here who feels I should spit in your face for the level of respect you have for some one else on here, than I will. Simply just because you may be okay with viewing that, doesn't mean any one else is. And just because there's a little warning in parentheses right next to it doesn't make it okay either! There are people on here underage. There are also people on here who aren't underage and just don't want to tarnish their mind with that insignificant crap thats in there.
Makes me sick. I never have seen any one bring that kind of garbage onto this forum before this. I never will look here the same. Thanks.
Have a good day.

I would advise you to next that next time you follow a direction that you should learn how to READ, the warning was clearly posted and it is up to individual discretion if they deem themselves mature or not. There's a wallpaper thread here with scantly dressed women why don't you go spit in their face too? On the second thought, keep you nasty slime to yourself, rather not spread your idiocy to other members.
traceit the fonts came from the themes. However there are a couple of fonts lying around the forum. Do a search.
E_man, I'll take a look at it thanks.
I can't tell if you're serious or not. If you are just trollin' then haha (skip the rest)
If you're actually serious, man, how stupid are you? The link that he posted had tons of good materials for wallpapers. He even notated that it was NSFW due to "PORN", I don't know how more clear you can get than that. You go out of your way to click a link that says it contains pornography and have the nerve to be "offended" at the images of naked chicks? So what if there are underage people on here, if they click a link that says porn, i'm sure they know what they are getting into... if not, then welcome to the internets.
be a little more smart when you click on links next time. Just because you can't read, doesn't mean you can take our your sexual frustrations on someone who is contributing to this thread.

I suggest remove the wallpaper link also, your (OP) link is direct to porn wallpaper and it is not a original home link but rather a search you did and contains not only nudity but sex scenes image.
I try search, it contains too many pornography, even just a simple word "blue" "red". I am finding blue or red wallpaper but it link to non related wallpaper.
I believe this is a bit over also (even with noted "may contain pornography" and it is not may, it is contain a lot), XDA is not a porn site.
Some more it is not related to your thread title "Commonly Used Widgets".

To be rather honest, I don't care what you guys think. I knew I would hear you guys say that because I opened my mouth. I am not idiotic, I just stand up for what I believe is right. Even if it means getting called out by some random internet strangers. You may think that I sound like an idiot, but I find it disgusting that we find pornography acceptable as a society. So you can find it as my fault for not seeing your "warning." Thats fine. I never said it wasn't my fault for accidentally clicking. But I did say that just because you put a warning doesn't mean it's okay. So whether you wanna still blame me for this or not, is honestly the least of my cares.

With all do respect sir,
When you buy a pack of cigarettes there is a warning label "smoking kills"
When it does happen that a person dies because to much smoking. You don't blame the company but the person itself.
When there is a sign warning don't put hand in the machine, you don't put it right.
When you buy a game and its rated 18+ its giving out as a advise
So when the OP writes
My Persona favorite 4wall (NSFW may contain pornography)
He puts op a warning and you are the person that opened the link. Maybe out of curiosity or something.
I do believe that people should stand for what they believe in, but if you think about it what you did. In my opinion its not his fault but yours. Some people enjoy pornography while others find it disgusting, why do you think its a multimillion dollar business.
Also i also agree with you that XDA is not a pron site.
But when i opened this topic or any other topic i did not see any porn at all. I did see the link he posted and is did not open it. If i would open it it would be on another website not XDA.
I mean this in all respect to you sir
So the other day, Gizmodo "wrote an article" (posted a link) on fuglyandroid, a site dedicated to showing off 'crappy' Android homescreens, as if it's proof that Android is naturally an ugly OS (and that iPhone's uncustomizability is better? lol).
Well, I think they're wrong. Open source is frickin' sweet. So how about it? Please submit your awesome homescreens to http://bamfandroid.tumblr.com/, hopefully when there's enough attention we can throw this back at fuglyandroid.
I know we have a screenshot thread in here, but I'd feel bad about scouring it for screenshots without asking permission or properly crediting the author.

How about just suggesting to Gizmodo a website like "MyColorScreen"? Instead of building another site. It shows the best of both worlds and also of note, of the top 10 6 are Android... just a thought.
I hate that humans take first impressions and whatever they see first so aggresivily. Iphone people thought that when the iphone 4 came out that all the stuff it offered was new and only on the iphone. Fail.

Theres similar threads around here. Some awesome stuff there.
Now this made me laugh! They didn't even pick any good 'FUGLY' shots! Some of them actually have potential as the widgets are even modded. The creators should have asked for feedback and the layouts would probably be worth to look at.
Ignorant douches, like the ones who created this website - probably haven't jailbreak'ed their iPhone. So they automatically don't have any say on the matter, IMHO! At the end of the day it's all personal preference. I'd rather just add a couple of widgets and be left with an entire new setup, than switch out my entire OS and pray to God that I get into dBarteam.net.
Android, we look sexy, ya'll!

If you have a screenshot app, and if Tumblr's app/mobile site supports submitting images. IDK about that one, I don't use either :S

How about just suggesting to Gizmodo a website like "MyColorScreen"? Instead of building another site. It shows the best of both worlds and also of note, of the top 10 6 are Android... just a thought.

Oh cool, I didn't even know that site existed? Well the point of BAMF Android is more to be a direct response to fugly android, not really Gizmodo. Besides, Giz is typically pro-Apple, and I don't think they would post something that would contradict one of their own writers.

Bad ass mother f*cking android
Yeeuuuh. Classy is my middle name.
I lol'ed so hard when one of its screenshots wasn't even android.
LOL I made the fugly list !! Woohoo
on the tablets on enders game, they have these awesome little one handed keyboards that you pull and stretch and flick and tap. Has anyone figured out how this would work or if it could work? If you haven't yet go see that movie and behold the keyboard awesomeness
MY GOD I KNOW RIGHT?!? xD i did a google search to see if there was anything similar and i post this posting on good all xda. noooow im gunna go learn java to hope to one day make it xD would be cool for a single hand messaging app to exsist. could be like a im or sms app? idk BUY ITD BE SIk
I hear ya, i have found one project but its very weird on the android since the page keeps trying to scroll instead of type
does anyone have a clip of how the keyboard works? i cant find anything yet, i know it will probably hit when the movie actually comes out though.
I created a prototype in JavaScript
Hi guys, I signed up so I can say this =)
I made a prototype over the weekend after seeing the film. I'm not allowed to post links (< 10 posts), but you can go to GitHub and look for enders-keyboard: my username is henrahmagix. To see a demo, go to henrahmagix dot imgur dot com.
@dakunesu The project you found: was it mine? If so, I'm so sorry I didn't stop the page from scrolling around on Android. Hopefully I've fixed that now: I just pushed several updates. Please let me know if it's still a problem and I'll try to fix it =)
After making that, I realised the design is limiting and requires great precision. I've added some issues to improve that, but I don't think it can go very far. It has the cool factor, but I think it's more limiting than useful.
Thanks,
Henry =)
Thanks, Henry. Here's the full link to your github

It's too bad you stopped work on it. I thought it looked pretty cool but more importantly it would have some real functionality for the larger tablets ie all the new windows 8.1 12" tablets that they have coming out soon. With the broadwell chips, they're pretty skinny, easy to hold with one hand which makes this application pretty perfect for typing. Granted it has some rough edges that might be hard to smooth out, especially with punctuation but some of that can be handled by smart prediction tech implemented by other keyboard groups. Well with the larger tablets coming out, a decent typing solutions is something alot of people are going to be looking for.
Keyboards have long been overdue for a change, the whole qwerty thing was set up to keep typewriter keys from jamming, and with tablets you see alot more swiping actions and such making it easier for people to step way from the traditional qwerty keyboards.
Either way, I think the test page you have is a step in the right direction and it looks good and works well enough. I'd love to see something like that as a keyboard for android.
Enders keyboard is not meant for us mortals

AFKPU keyboard
I found this video on youtube "AFKPU keyboard", does anyone know of a project that implements such a concept?
Those touch screen interfaces in movies always seemed very unintuitive to me.
